and life was precious to the impress
ed white men. They heard only the
laundering waters behind and felt the
levee crumbling at their heels like the
sand, which was in truth its most treach-
erous ingredient. Breaking his way into
the flying men, Mr.. Banks pushed on. ,

swung low over the dangerously wild

was thinking what to do. The maelstrOn

break made him shudder for the loved

Mr.. Banks was nearly there:
Catch him. cried Dock throwing the
child forward with all his strength, "an1

were swallowed up 10 the depths Of the
seething torrent.
When Dock came 20 his senses he was
lying on a bed in Mr. Banks cottage and
the little family was beside him.

Inc Mississippi river stood far above
nigh water mark, and the levee itself
was hOneycombed with holes In the
urgency of the case a gang of laborers
willing or worthless, had been forcibIy
Impressed into service by chosen and
expeditions leaders. Under the able
maud of the manager, Mr.. Banks, the
force rapidly fell into systematic ac-
uon with such commendable results that
threatened places were now strengthened
and the levee itself stood higher and
broader than ever before. This morning
the day force had passed on to a depres-
sion in an adjoining section northward.
where wall of sand bags would soon
make short work of the trouble The
strain of excitement over, its impress still
made itself felt in the tempers of the
WORKOUT men-all, except Dock Hardin
Dock was one of the mo accounts
who had been corraled at the last mo-
ment in the above species of hold-up
Reckon he can heave bags" muttered
the manager grimly, IF he can't I'll
teach him how" and he did.
Dock hardly knew himself in his undue
hurry, and he submitted reluctantly. He
had been at work a week now, and at
this particular moment, as far as Mr.
Banks could see, was idling down on the
newly HHlSueU portion nearing ulnSelI
talk to little Joe Banks.
The manager felt kindly, but exasper-
ated.
What on earth made me bring Joe?"
ne asked himself testify and foolishly
for one who was so entirely in Joe's
hands. The boy, obviously, chunked a
nearby anvil, listened to his big compan-
ion, and piped in eagerly: She's risin'
amt she, Mr.. Hardin" speaking Of the
river. His hands went deep in his pock-
etc and he STROBE from bag to bag with
all the manly pride of five years
Mr. Banks smiled in spite of his irrita-
ton.

other with the grave anxiety Of man to

endeared him to the boy; but eff 1 was

pewter ware in the Civic league rooms,
in the New York Life building. The sale
is only sort of an experiment. and if it
proves successful will be followed by SIM
liar exhibits. The articles on sale were
picked up by Mrs. Condo Hamlin during
a recent visit to New York The growing
taste for ancient things was very appar-
ent in her selections, and some very fine
specimens were shown. Considera bly
more than half of the collection has been
sold, which all goes to show that such
articles as were on exhibition were read
ny appreciated, and St. Paul women only
100 glad to avail themselves of the
chahce Of being able to purchase them
without having the task of looking for
them themselves.
The aim of the club in this respect is
10, IN way, make itself the agent for
bringing really good things of this sort
INTO the city. There will be a committee
70 Judge of the real artistic value of
Things, and only those articles which are
valued as first class will be handled. SO
that people purchasing in this way, from
the league; will be sure that they have
procured the genuine article
Mrs. Condo Hamlin was in charge YES
terday, and the sale will continue fore
moons, from 10 to l O'clock during the
remainder of the week

OBSERVANCE OF LENT
NOT A DYING CUSTOM AS SOME
BELIEVE 1T TO
SOLEMN HOLY WEEK SERVICES
81. Paul Club Women Likely to-
Hold ''Meetings' - Thinking
More Profitable Than
Chatter.

It is the popular belief that the Gus
tom of observing Lent is rapidly dying
out that fashionable people are no longer
observing it, and this fact is it's death
knell Yet a visit in the afternoon or
evening to some of the Catholic and
Episcopal churches in the city will con-
vince scOffers that a large number Of
St Paul people, at least, are keeping lent
and keeping it, not because it is good for
the body, but because it is good for the
soul. Especially in this last week of
Lent, Holy week as it is called, are the
members of Catholic and Episcopal con-
gregatiOns faithful in their attendance
at the lenten services of their respective
churches. Peculiarly solemn this week
are the services in the Roman Catholic
churches, these services attracting not
only Catholics themselves, but many Of
other or no religious beliefs.
If St. Paul club women are quick to
act on suggestions, no one need be sur
prfsed to hear of the various woman s
clubs of the city holding silent meetings.
The suggestion comes from Mrs. T. =.
Stanwood, a Chicago club woman. Club
women talk too much, said HRS.
Stanford, and after allowing the other
members of the club time to gain their
breath. she continued: "A half hour
thinking things over is better than gossip
and chatter on subjects that you are not
well enough informed to discuss The
Chicago club woman has not taken kind
~ to the idea. On the contrary, indeed.
But ST. Paul club women are more con-
servative than the Chicago club woman,
so the suggestion may find favor with
them What could be more conservative
than a Quaker meeting?'

orally worn by young girls and children.
Every effort is made to revive green as
a fashionable color, but very little will

evening gowns.
A delicate tint of lettuce green or i7Iy
