There was at least one responsive
hearer in the crowded little church in
an English village, and it happened
this way:
Guests had arrived unexpectedly at
the country parsonage on Sunday
morning.
The weekly supply of butter had run
short, so the hospitable host dispatched
old Joe, the handy man, to his neigh
Dor, Mr.. Paul, whose dairy always
boosted a surplus. The parson pro-
ceeded to church with his well pre-
pared sermon on some of the deep say
ings of the great apostle and was well
under way with it when old Joe, re-
turning empty handed, concluded he
would quietly slip in and hear his mas
ter preach.
Just as he entered the preacher
leaned over the pulpit, stretched forth
his hand with most impressive in
terrogation in voice and manner and
called out, "And what did Paul say"
Distinctly sounded through the church
old Joe's reply:
"He say, marster, he amt going to
let you have no more butter till you
pay for the last you got"

white women they had captured. Most
of them were dead. One was alive,
but too weak to tell what they had
done. We could see, though"
"We can't do anything until dark, )"
answered Jack thoughtfully. "Then
we can follow the trail. They are rid
ing sort of in this direction, so we will
be able to make it. They'll probably
camp for the night. If we can creep
up and stampede 'em, all right; if we
can't we'll have to take our chances,
but we want to be sure to keep last
bullet in our guns for ourselves in
case things go wrong"
AS soon as it grew dark the horses
were led alp from the little gully in
which they had been hidden. The
girths were drawn tight, and a mo-
ment later the white men were gallop-
ing in a direction that would cross the
Indian trail. They soon struck it, and
even IN the night it was easy for the
experienced plainsmen to follow the
track left by so large troop. After
two hours of hard riding Dan Driscoll
suddenly slowed up.
"There's the light" he said to Jack.
"They must have felt pretty safe from
pursuit to start campfire. Well have
to leave the horses here. An Indian
would hear the galloping long before
we got in rifle shot"

Eclipse course as the stake attractions
of the opening day, May 80, at Morris
Park the real opening of the New York
racing season viii be on. The stables at
the big Westchester course already are
nearly filed, and from all indications

premium. The latest important stable
to arrive at Morris Park is that Of Col
onel James E. Pepper, under the care
of Trainer Crit Davis, containing %
horses, twelve of which are two-year-
Odds.
A concerted movement has been start
ed by owners and trainers of horses in
favor of calling q halt on the rivalry
between the track owners for prestige
in the matter of time records. The horse
owners especially are anxious for track
managers to return to old methods, and
are unanimous in asserting that the
desire of track owners for fast time has
been the first cause in shortening the
period of usefulness of horses within
the past two years.

Chicago Federation of Labor at War
With the American.

Chicago. April 21.-Thpough its failure to
eXpel the delegates of sthe seeding 1900
teamsters of this city the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor has taken attitude of
open rebellion against the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, its officers and methods.
In defiance of mandate from President
Gompers and Secretary Frank Morrison of
the national body. says the Chronicle, the
local labor assembly not only refused to
order the expulsion of the teamsters' rep
resentatives, but went to the extent of in
dorsing by formal vote the stand taken
by the Seceders. Members of the team
Sters' union had seeded from that organi-
alton because the right of employers to
membership was recognized. it is alleged,
by President Gompers. The American
Federation ordered the Chicago body to
expel the seceders. This was referred to
a committee whose report, which was
unanimously adopted, contained the fol-
lowing:
I'VE further recommend in the way of
a resolution that the International Team
Drivers OF America. be notified that we
stand for the union of wage earners and
that we can not encourage or countenance
any organization that admits employers.
and that when they eliminate from their
constitution this clause we stand ready to
help them to settle the grievances between
them and the Transfers National union.
