aching hearts in the language of the
psalmist of old, How long. o Lord, how
long,?
1.-The voices of three men now fill the
world with their bluster-Charles Sumner,
a crack-brained theorist; Thaddeus Stew
ems, a clubfooted misanthrope. and B. F.
Butler, a triumvirate of physical and
mental deformity. Yet they are but the
cracked reeds of a great organ that peals
forth the discord Of a nations blind rage.
When the storm Is past and reason rules
passion they will be flung into oblivion.
We must bend to the storm. 1t is God s
WILL"
The people left the church with heavy
hearts. They were hopelessly depressed.
In the afternoon as the churches were be-
ing slowly emptied groups of negroes
stood on the corners talking loudly and
discussing the meaning of this new Sun
day so strangely observed. 1t began to
snow. 1t was late in March and this was
an unusual phenomenon in the south.
The next morning the earth was cover
ed with four inches Of snow that glistened
In the sun with a strange redish hue.
On examination IL was found that every
snowdrop had IN it tiny red spot that
looked like a drop Of blood. Nothing of
the kind had ever been seen before in the
history of the world, so far as any one
knew.
Of sure and terrible calamity. Even the
most cultured and thoughtful could not
shake OFF the impression II made.
The preacher did his best to cheer the
people in his daily intercourse with them.
His Sunday sermons seemed in these dark
est rays unusually tender and hopeful. 1t
was a marvel to those who heard his Bit
ter and sorrowful speech on the day of
fasting and prayer that he could preach
such sermons as those which followed,
Occasionally old Uncle Joshua Miller
would ask him to preach for the negroes
in their new church on Sunday afternoons.
He always went hoping to keep some sort
of helpful influence over them in spite
OF their new leaders and teachers. 1t
was strange to watch this man shake
hands with these negroes, call them ia
miliarly by their names, ask kindly after
their families and yet carry in his heart
the presage of a coming irreconcilable
conflict. For no one knew more clearly
than he that the issues were being join
cd from the deadly grip Of that conflict
of races that would determine whether
this republic would be mulatto or Anglo
Saxon. Yet at heart he had only the kind
Hest feelings for these familiar dusky
faces now rising a black storm above the
horizon, threatening the existence of CIV
ilized society, under the leadership OF ST.
mon Legree and Mr.. Stevens.
1t seemed a joke sometimes as he
thought of ii, q huge. preposterous joke,
this actual attempt to reverse the order
of nature turn society upside down and
make thichlipped, fiat-nosed negro but
yesterday taken from the jungle. the ruler
of the proudest and strongest race of
men evolved in two thousand years OF his
tory. Yet when he remembered the fierce
passions in the hearts of the demagogues
who were experimenting with this social
dynamite, it was a joke that took on a
hellish, sinister meaning.

To Be or Not To Be HatIess.

The following explains itself:
NEW YORK, May l5-In an address
before the diocesan convention OF the
New Jersey Episcopal church Bishop Scar
borough called attention 10 the growing
practice Of women appearing hatless in
public places. 1t had been extended to
attendances at divine worship. which, he
thought was not a consistent practice,
and he hoped it would be discontinued"
Now what are the women to do?
Shall they wear hats or sit in the public
places of worship or amusement without
hats on their heads?
VIII II be possible to please all their
critics?
A few evenings since in a large and
crowded convention assemblage a cry
was heard hats on hats off,"
Directly these hats were resting quietly
on the owners laps and the audience seem
ed to be satisfied as no further appeals
were heard.
Indeed the present style Of hats should
be changed II the bishop is sustained in
his present contention. They are immense
and growing more so.
One fashionable hat in front of you will
effectually shut Of the speakers form as
well as his face on the platform unless
one is tall enough to overlook the major
fly and look over heads Also
Men take OF their hats in church, why
should not women do likewise?
All! but some stickler rises up to say
St. Paul says: Women, cover your
heads" And st. Paul said a good many
other things which fitted the times he
lived in and which fan TO At in the present
times.
would like to ask the bishop II he ap-
proves Of foot-washing in his church? The
Master himself set a foot-washing ex-
ample and declined 10 pass judgment on
hats or bonnets.
I think foot-washing should be explain
ed away properly II II Is out of date to
wash your church brothers feet, as a
church ordinance.
Womens hats are not to be ranked
along with foot-washing exercises. and
common sense says do as you like about
the hat business. especially as the bishop
does the same way about foot-washing.

CHAPTER XII
pEn GNOUnROpC

The spirit of anarchy was in the taint~
ed air. The bonds that held sociey were
loosened. Government threatened to be-
come organized crime instead of the or
ganized virtue of the community.
The report of crimes of unusual horror
among the ignorant and the vicious began
now to startle the world.
The Rev John Durham on his rounds
among the poor discovered a little negro
boy whom the parents had abandoned to
starve. His father had become drunken
loafer at Independence and the Freed
mans bureau delivered the child to his
mother and her sister. who lived In
cabin about two miles from Hambright,
and ordered them to care for the boy.
A few days later the child had disap-
peared. A search was instituted, and the
charred bones were found in an old ash
heap in the woods near this cabin. The
mother had knocked him in the head and
burned the body in a drunken orgie with
dissolute companions.
The sense of impending disaster crush
ed the hearts of thoughtful and serious
people. One of the last acts of Governor
Macon whose office was now under the
control of the military commandant at
Charleston, s. c., was to issue a procla-
nation, appointing a day Of fasting and
prayer to God for deliverance from the
ruin that threatened the state under the
dominion of Legree and the negroes.
II was a memorable day in the history
OF the people. In many places they met

The Honest Thing To Do.
Manchester Union.

The honest thing to do is to do a thing
for the sake of the thing itself-because
we love it, because we believe in It, be-
cause we want to do it, because we feel
that it is the one thing Of all otner
things that we feel we can do and would
like to do. Then we bring mind and heart
together, and that is combination tnaL
nothing can Withstand in it's highest ana
best results. Then we bring an honesty OF
purpose and a power Of energy that al
ways make for success to a cause ana
an ennobling influence to ourselves For
that one thing every woman should search
herself to find. What is the one tnins,
above and beyond all things, that would
like to do and feel that can do 1t? Is the
question she should ask herself Wnen
we become honest with ourselves we De-
come effective, says the Pittsburg Press.
We need have no fear that this CONNIE
ment to one narrowing influence Tnere
is no way of knowledge that does not open
to US all other ways. The study OF any
single life leads to the history OF the
world.
