''What is it?" asked Mr.. Moody.
1T is about a lost sheep"
Two days later, in Edinburgh, they
held a great meeting il the Free As
sembly hall. As DR.. BOnar finished,
Mr.. Moody leaned over the pulpit and
asked the singer if he had not a solo
for the occasion. The thought of the
verses he had read in the penny paper
came to Mr. Sankey's mind, and, OPEN
ing his scrapbook. in which he had
pasted the clipping, he placed it before
him on the organ, and, after a moment
Of silent supplication, struck a full
chord and began 70 sing. And note
by note came the now famous song.
He composed il as he went along What
he sang was the JOY that sweIIed IN
his own soul, hope that was born. the
love for those who needed help. Thus
he finished the first stanza.
Then, as he paused and played a few
chords, waiting to begin again, the
thought came TO him: "Can I sing the
second stanza as I did the first? Can
remember the notes p" And concen.
trating his mind once more for the ef-
fort, he began TO sing. So he went on
through for five stanzas and after the
services he put the melody in music.

ClemmOns and Ray Wagner, were Or
dered TO assemble at the summit of
an elevation on Fourth street.
They were there met by a party of
young men in black robes, who
blindfolded them and after escorting
them about the hill, through alleys
and cross streets, landed them in
the old cemetery. Here the men,
bers of the fraternity went through
the regular ritual, after which the
candidates were tied to trees and
t0mbstones to spend the remainder
of the night. One of them managed
to escape before his tormentors left
the grounds. They gave chase and
captured him, bound him hand and
foot and dropped him into an old
sunken grave, where bugs and toads
creeping about him added to his
terror.
While the other three were en-
deayoring to free themselves and re
move the blindfolds they were
scared stiff by a tall, white figure
rising out of a grave near by and
with a voice full of awe commanding
them to disappear from his domain.
He said they were sacrilegiOus and
if they were not gone in IS minutes
he would return and subject them
to the torture Of the eternal region.
Fear added strength to their shak-
ing limbs and in ten minutes the
four students had burst the bonds
that held them and broke into a
mad race for the heart of the city.
It is feared tht the health of at
least one of the victims viii be Sc
riously impaired on account of the
experience.

LIon Yeraua RunnIn-

When Purvis and Clark were explor-
ing in Africa, north OF the Zambesi,
they saw large lion stalking a buf-
falo bull and a calf. In his native
wilds the lion is no particular hero,
while the African buffalo is one OF
the most dangerous of the wild
things. So Purvis and Clark watched.
Suddenly the bull charged, but the
lion sprang TO one side for an in
stant, then leaped for the calf. Be-
fore the beast could strike. however,
the buffalo bull had turned again and
charged. The hon, on the defensive,
struck at his asssilaRt, but the blow
had no effect on the enraged creature.
OHe of the long, cruel horns caught
the lion in the side and the creature,
weighing more than 400 pounds, was
thrown ten feet into the air.-Chicago

Thornton ". Pinckard, so ruth

American, had been a patient in the
hospital since last January, suffering
from paralysis. Medical skill had
been of no avail in his case, and, IN
der the ruling of the board of trus-
tees, an application was made TO
send him 10 the city infrmary. The
infrmary directors, after discovering
that Pinckard was helpless, con-
cluded that their institution was no

Then Mrs. Pinckard was appealed
to by letter, setting forth the status

she could not shoulder, and she con-

GENESIS OF A HYMN.
Tow Ira ID. Sankey, the Singing
Evangelist, Composed ''The
Ninety and Nine.'

In the Ladies' Home Journal Cleve-
.and Moffett tells how the greatest Of
all singing evangelists, Ira d. Sankey,
came to give the world hymn that
will live long after his voice is stilled.
1t was during Moody and Sankey's
first visit To Great Britain. As they
were entering the train in Glasgow,
Mr.. Sankey bought copy of penny
religious paper called The Christian
Age. Looking over il, his eye fell on
some verses, the first two of
which read thus:
There were ninety and nine that safely lay
In the shelter of the fold"
''Alr. Moody" exclaimed Mr.. Sankey,
Il have found the hymn that I've been
looking for for years"

formed at the top to turn water, and
small entrance is cut in the south
side. \ rude door is made 10 cover
this. There are small holes near the
bottom of the hut for breathing
places, and in winter a chimney hole
is cut in the top. But there are no
windows of any sort. In summer
the lower part of the sod house can
be removed, leaving a good roof and
open sides. In them they spend the
warm weather. Storms have full

to care for this. In case the wind
blows too hard they 90 into some
of the numerous caves that may be

The COmanches do not live inside Of
houses of any kind. Their sole pro-
lection from the weather is tents
made in the shape of the regulation
Indian tepee. In these tepees they
spend their winters, but In summer
live under a leaf arbor. The klowas
live or have lived much after the
same manner. But these Indians are
being made to go into the small two
roomed wooden houses which the GOV
ernment has built on theirallOrmeuts.
Some Of the older Indians are OBJ

under strict orders to move or sut-
fer the consequence of having their
annuity money cut off in the heart
of the winter season.
