first person to meet him In the hall
way was Louise. 1t was new world
that Stuart was nenceIorIn TO Know,
and his heart went out to his sister
this morning with a new tenderness.
She put her arm about his neck as he
stopped to kiss her.
What a dreadful time you must
have had, Stuart. 1t is q great bless
ing you were not killed in that awful
mine. The doctor has been telling me
about it."

spared for some great reason" replied
Stuart. How is Eric this morningp
He put his arm about Louise and NOV

room, which was near by. Louise Slip
ped away from him and answered:
"Oh, he is getting on all right! | don't
want to see him. Don't wait breakfast
long, Stuart"
She crossed over into the dining
room, and Stuart went in to see Eric,
who still lay in the down stairs bed

Duncan's h o. Sc as he had first design
ed and built it.
The doctor was there by the bed. He
had come up early. He had attended to
the wound, and Eric was resting COM

pale and almost stern. Stuart felt an
added tenderness for the man who had
been his companion in that hour Of
peril Somehow the experience of the
morning deepened and enlarged all his
thoughts of friendship and love.
He kneeled down by the bed and
smiled as Eric turned his dark eyes
toward him.

dear fellow" he asked as he laid his
hand in Erics.
"Oh, rested well. I'm able to get up
this morning, but the doctor here won't
let me move"

replied DR.. Saxon gruffiy. Stuart,
please order my horse around so

CHAPTER ".
A CHANGE.


Lord Jesus"-the pale face in the
Salvation Army bonnet was raised,
wholly unmindful of all the people in
that great multitude-"our hearts are
longing tonight for lost souls who have
wandered far away from home. And
them now because thou art the Good
Shepherd. o Lord Jesus, we want you
to come down here tonight and lead
some of these sheep into the fold. Some
of them are so bruised and torn with
sin that they will have to be carried;
but, o Lamb of God, that takest away
the sin of the world, we know you are
strong and can bear them in the arms
of infinite love over rough places, be-
side the chasms of satan and through
the wild torrents of death. oh, for the
cross of Calvary to be stretched out
like a great arm to save tonight! Oh.
for the sweet forgiveness of sin to
touch these human hearts right now.

want you to come tonight. These
men, these women, how precious they
are. Who can tell what will be their
fate if they should be called out of the
world tonight? Their mothers, Lord
Jesus-these strong young men, some
of them, have mothers praying for
them. Oh, have dreamed of the ter
ror of the judgment for those who re-
ject the Saviour! We are so in need of
the power here and now. Open our
eyes like those of the young man to
see the horses and charots of fire
around about tonight. Save with the
blood that was shed for all Come
now, Lord Jesus. We have followed.
Make good the promise. Yes, we want
some souls. We are hungry for some

Boys" he said as he appeared on the
veranda, "Eric's out of it tonight. Wen
make it hot for the towards that's done
this"
AYE, that we willw cried a dozen
voices.
Three cheers for Mr.. Duncan! sud
denly cried a voice. The men could not
help knowing from their experiences
in the mines that Stuart had staid by
Eric during the danger, although he
had said very little of himself in his
narrative.
The cheers were given heartily, and
Stuart felt for the first time in his life
that perhaps the day would come when
these men would understand him. He
stepped out of the doorway, however,
and, pointing in to where Andrew
Burke was standing, said: Thank you,
men. But if it hadn't been for Mr..
Burke here Eric would not be safe.
We owe our lives to him."
"Whos he?" rudely asked some one.
''The new minister at St. Johns.
knows him." replied another.
"a minister Ell? Well, three cheers
for him anyway cried another.
The cheers were given, and the men
began to move away. Stuart felt anx-
ious, and exhausted as he was by the
evenings adventure he could not help
feeling that rough work would mark
the night before it was over. He felt
as if here was an opportunity to say a
word while he was in favor with the
men.
MEN, | want to say word. l un-
derstand troops are in the town to-
night. | hope you will all be law abid-
ing and
AYE, we's heard that till wes sick Of

drunken man.
Stuart for the first time realized that
the element of the saloon had entered
into the problem. Heretofore the men
had kept away from the drink.
"Shut up" exclaimed Gordon and
others. Give Mr.. Duncan fair hear
ing"
81 say" continued Stuart, that
nope you VIII not commit any violence.
] am talking to you as know Eric
would if he were here"
"But how about men brought in to
take the bread out of our mouths?"
"Aye, that's the stuff! Well make 1t
hot for them, troops or no troops"
"These are not my orders, you under
stand" said Stuart, feeling every min
ute more conscious of the nature of a
restless mob of men who were deprived
of their regular leader. Il advise you
to go to your homes in quiet. Tomor-
row we will investigate the burning of
the engine house and the injury to

mined vigorous. muscular onslaught on
a bass drum by a strong right arm.
And around the corner by the Iron
Cliffs company's Office came a squad of
men and women not more than dozen
in all. bearing a dag and shouting as
they came:
Our bark is sailing DER ife's to a land beyond
the blue:
We're going to the promised land long with thu
chosen few.
Aboard the bark there still is room for many,
many more;
So come aboard and with us go to yonder happy
shore
Our bark is laden down with wealth. with pleas
ures rich and rare;
There's naught like them upon the earth, and we
all may have share.

ton Army marched, singing this hymns
to the tune of 20 a the ARTS the windsl
can blaw," and as they reached thN!
side of the square peculiar thing haps
pened.
The miners on that side opened up al
passage for the little squad so that ii
could pass into the square. Acting on
the impulse given by mobs at times
the miners began to crowd back on,
both sides and the army kept advanc.
ing. singing its song and marching I'M

nrORnSSiOn piuhf down fhppI1uh hn
ter of the square directly toward the
church steps. The great heavy crowd
seemed to part like magic, and down
the avenue thus voluntarily provided
the squad marched, beating it's drum.
The leader was young woman, whose
pale face possessed prematurely aged
look, but there was not a particle of
self consciousness to be seen upon it,
and she marched at the front as proud
ly and with as queenly bearing as if
her following was composed of the
picked archangels of heavens hosts.
High above the shrll treble and the
hoarSe bass of the others her voice
went out as sweet as any that Stuart
had ever heard, and he wondered
where such voice had been concealed
in Champion that he had never heard
it before. 1t sang as if the words were
sacred to the heart:
Just leave behind all worldly dross and come to
Gods own store;
Receive your gifts and with them cross to yonder
happy shore.
Close at the foot of the church steps
the band halted. Here the crowd was
very dense. 1t seemed a natural van
tage ground for testimony and appeal.
The miners for the time appeared to
yield to the influence of this attraction.
Stuart said to himself, perhaps Eric
will not be needed after ALL" The scene
had an intense interest for him now.
He forgot all about Burke and tn
strike and his relations to it as the wo-
man raised her hand as a signal for
the drum to cease and then made an
other signal for the little company to
kneel. Right down on the bottom steps
of the church she kneeled, just Yellow

there. And never in all his experience.
never in all his saunterings through
great cathedrals and listening to chant
ed services, had he felt nearer to a
truer knowledge of what God is in his
great compelling love for sinful man.
All this took very little time. and he
had no thought Of acting in any way
on his feelings. But while the woman
was still on her knees thing happened
that in the end deepened his conviction
and changed the course of possible
events among the miners themselves.
The crowd was so large that only q
very few could hear or see what was
going on about the little band then al

true-at least it had been up to this

TOWNE SAYS
That Bryan and Free Silver are both Vsry
Dead.

New York, July 18.--Chas. Towne,
formerly of Duluth. Mimi, and the
Free Silver Republican party, now OF
the Texas oil fields and plutocracy, was
in the city today for the purpose Of
selling to his fellow-plutocra in Wall
street few shares of stock and some
bonds of the oil octopus, of which he
is President. His stock he guarantees
verbally to pay 100 per cent, per year
in dividends.
Mr.. Towne, who was nominated for
Vice President last year by the Popu-
lists and Silver Republicans, on the
ticket with Bryan, and withdrew when
the Democrats at Kansas City refused
to put him on their ticket, has aban-
doned politics for good. he says, While
asserting that he is out of politics for
good Mr.. Towne says that he has kept
track of the political situation and feel
ing in the west. OF that situation he
told today some things that may not
please his former friend, Mr.. Bryan.
PREDICTS A SPLIT.
Mr.. Towne said: "In my opinion Ser
ator Hill, of New York. will be the
next candidate for President of the reg
gular Democratic party, and the plat
form adopted will believe, be very
reactionary one. In fact, believe the
M ,~ttr in, Nd
will lead a third party in support Of the
issues TO which he is still loya!. The
feeling emOng Democrats throughout
the West is that they want 60 wiD,
ard they don't care a rap what sort
OF platform they win on. There is
also strong feeling in that se2ti0u in
favor of the nomination of Mr.. Hill or
some other Eastern man and the adop-
tion of a platform that will be a total
reputation fthe chief issues of 1896
and 1900.
"The free silver question is absolute
ly dead in the west. 1t will not only
not be an issue in 1904, but | don't
believe it will bementoned in the Dem
ocratic platform or campaign"
Mr.. Towne said that he was glad to
see that Mr.. Bryan had condemned the
Ohio Democrats for their refusal to
stand by the National platform.
JUST LIKE BRYAN.
1T is just like the man." he said "Mr
Bryan is certainly loyal to his princi
pies and he is hard man to down,
but don't believe he can again be the
candidate of united party for the Of
flee of President. All the indications In
the west now point to a reactionary
platform three years hence and an
Eastern man as the nominee. Such
result may cause Mr.. Bryan to lead
the bolt"

LATE IN THE DAY
The Demand For Union Pacific Was
Apparently Unsuitable.
By Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
New York, July 1S.-The speculative
Judgment of today's stock market was
unsettled and inconclusive under the
influence of the erratic variations of
Union Pacific, St. Paul and other
stocks affected by Northern Pacifics
settlement announced yesterday. At
the opening the stock market was con-
gested with buying of stocks of the
railroads affected and of steel stocks.
There were simultaneous purchases Of
Union Pacific at the opening of 10000
shares at 1884 to 104R, compared
with 1929 last night, and st. Pau. 5000
shares at 16519, compared with
1854 last night. United States steel
also dealt in 5000 shares at varying
prices of from 4O12 to 41H compared
with 4O9s last night. The price of this
stock at the opening was the highest
of the day and it was under steady
pressure, through mutations of the
market, getting it down nearly a point
under last nlght, ana closing at ffac
tional net loss. The whole market
felt the effect of almost enormous real
izing sales.
The period after midday, when the
general level of prices receded. was
well below last night, even Union Pa
cifc and st. Paul showing losses.
Late in the day when Union Pacific
began it's final upward movement the
demand for stock was apparently in,
satiable.
Railroad bonds were active and U.
s. bonds unchanged.
