this parish. AMI his recent visit
was no exception. There was Il
large attendance at all the services

The bishops text for his sermon
in he morning was taken FROM

comfort and rich with beautiful

Jesus Saviour of my. sonl,' was
sung with exquisite expression by
Miss WOodhOuss.

At both services the offertory
was for the benefit of missions,
and contributions were very liberal.

PR6GREsO PROGRESSING.
LaGd in Fine Condition for Farm
ers.-Cther Notes.

Progreso, Hidalgo County. Jan
4.-Holidsy festivities now being
over the people OF this section have
again settled down to their every
day occupation.
Midnight Mass was held at the
Catholic church of this place on
Christmas Eve by two Fathers from
Brownsville; they also held mass
ut the regular hours on Christmas
day. The day after the Fathers
proceeded TO the Lomila Ranch,
returned from there yesterday and
left This morning for Brownsville.
New years was welcomed by the
ringing OF the church and school
house bells, firing OF arms and sky
rockets, and prayers Of thanks were
offered up at TIE church by hume
rons families.
The weather which ne have been
having SO far this year is putting
the land in fne shape for planting.
Many OF our farmers instead of
replahting cotton this year will
leave the old roots. They cut the
stalks, as close as possible, to the
ground and by ploaghing a furrow
on each side of the trunk cover it
up with dirt; this Keeps them froIu
freezing in case Of chance frost,
thereby saving them tie cost OF
seed and planting. Cottd6iu this
section will bear and give good re-
suits for several years if it is not
killed by frost.

CHAPTER VII.
PLANS GOOD AND BAD.


 "You are surprised to see me, Miss Dwight" said Louise taking the seat Rhena had placed for her. ''I am Miss Duncan, Stuart Duncan's sister,
 ''Yes, I know you are. I have seen you walk past the hall several times," said Rhena quietly. She had not the remotest idea of the purpose of Louise's call.
 "We are going to have a little com pany at the house next week, and we would be glad to have you come," said Louise boldly looking straight at Rhe- na. T thought it would be less formal to call and invite you personally than totsend a note."
 Rhena looked over at her caller in the utmost astonishment. She did not know Louise at all. She had never met her in society in the old days be- fore leaving everything for the army, and she thought Louise, knowing her story, might suppose she would possi- ply enjoy 9 taste of the old life again. The face in the fur trimmed hat look ed very pretty, and Rhena felt kindly toward 1t. B 'Thank you," she answered gently. ,'I appreciate your kindness, but 1t is Impossible. I cannot go. I have shut the door upon my old life. I do not wish to open it again" She was silent, as if memory claimed her thought. Tben she added, with smile that Lou ise could just see through the unlighted room: Besides, have my regular ar- my duties to perform every night. I cannot leave my people, and there is a great deal of visiting to be done now. The distress and suffering in miners families are increasing very fast" < sI'm sorry you cannot come," said Louise. She rose slowly to go. Stu art speaks of you occasionally, and thought perhaps it would please him to invite you." The girl watched Rhena carefully. Rhena did not change color. She stood like statue, pale and still. Louise continued: And thought prob ably you might feel like coming to the informal affair we have planned. We have asked the Waltons and the Wy mans and the Vasplaines, and Una and

will do the honors of the music room, where we hoped we might have your voice to assist. Una plays beautifully"
 "UnaY asked Rhena.
 "Yes, Miss Vasplaine. It comes nat ural for me to call her 'Una,' of course. We were girls together, and besides," added Louise, with short laugh, ''since her recent engagement to my brother Stuart 1t seems more natural than ever. We'll, I'm sorry you cannot come. We would have enjoyed hearing you sing.''
 "You are kind to think of me, and am grateful for it." replied Rhena. The closest observer could not have detect ed any special emotion in her voice and manner. She impressed even Louise, with that lie about Stuart warm on her lips, as possessed, even in those dingy surroundings and in the army garb, of a grace and refinement that very few persons could equal. Louise felt like making some commonplace remark about the hardship of Rhena's life work, but something in Rhena's man. ner forbade it, and she went out of the room with a conventional Good even ing, Miss Dwight. So sorry to think you cannot favor us."
 Out on the street Louise murmured to herself, "I was pretty sure she would refuse to come, and don't think she is the person to lead Stuart on aft CT that little bit of previous informa- ton about Una" She smiled and set her face for home, walking briskly through the now fast falling snow.
 To any one familiar with the charac- ter of Louise Duncan her call on Rhe- na Dwight and her falsehood as to Stuart's engagement were perfectly easy to understand. It measured the extent of Louise's petty, narrow ideas of life and all its meaning. She had observed enough of Stuart's manner of late to feel sure that his feeling for Rhena had become more than senti- ment, and 1t was the last thing in the world that she wanted. If she could prevent any attachment with Salva- tion Army leader, she would do it in any way short of being found out in deceit; hence her lie to Rhena. How would she ever know? To be sure Rhena was an experienced woman in the ways of society, land she might have been on her guard if she had known

diate time anu also leaving word to send for him in case any special de mand came in later on in the evening. The miners had recently made several personal requests for help, and Stuart, in his growing cagerress to know as much as possible of the facts in the town had determined to go himself at the next pressing call and satisfy his desire for the truth.
 After supper that evening Louise and Aunt Royal were discussing the com

INDIA LOSING POPULATION.

Under normal conditions as to climate
and natural surroundings the population
of India would undoubtedly increase with
great rapidity. The natives of India are
prolific and large families are the rule.
The prevailing religion and the social
customs of the country are favorable to
progress in this direction. But famine
and cholera in recent years have maze
fearful inroads in India and more than
offset the natural increase of population.
The latest census returns show this. In
the central provinces alone there has
been decrease of over 100000 since
1891. when an increase of 100000 might
have been expected. 1t is estimated that
5000 900 persons have died in India since
1896 from causes directly due to the fam
inc. In western India things are even
worse. The Udaipur State returns show
a decrease of $4,000, or 45 per cent of the
population; the State of Bhopal shows
decrease of sos, 0OO the District of Ban
"a shows a decrease of $4,000, and so on.
Bombay City the population has di-
n.n.shed by $4,000
