was the scapegrace nephew Of the dead
colonel; that his name was Oscar Coura-
mont: that he lived down the river upon
a neglected plantation, where he beat his
slaves; and more than all, they knew
that many time he had sought the hand
of his fair cousin, Sylphide, in marriage;
not that he loved her--such tender SEN
tment had never entered his heart-but
because she was the only obstacle that
interviewed between him and his Inherit
anc to Rosemont.
He could not kill her, therefore she
must marry him. Thus he argued with
himself, when the news of his uncle's
death had reached him in New Orleans,
whittier he had gone to squander the
money raised by the sale of the last of
his slaves. 1t is needless to explain that
he returned to Vernon post haste but he
arrived at Rosemont to learn that Syl-
phide was already gone to church to be
united in wedlock to n stranger.
Without quitting his saddle, he put
spurs to his jaded beast, and rode like n
mad fury down into Vernon. He would
forbid the banns. tear her from this in
terloper, even kill the priest ere he had
time to give her forever to another.
At his Infatuated approach, the negroes
upon the outskirts of the crowd about
the church door fell back in dismay at
sight of his whip, but the whites stood
firm They feared him not; besides, they
had come to see the show, and they were
not to be cheated of their pleasure.
Couramont struggled and fought to no
purpose He was powerfully built
man, but he met his equals there in the
crowd, and do what he would, they
| would not let him pass.
| Il am her next of kim he roared 81
will see her married. Let me pass."
| Don't YOU see that mass of heads?'
retorted the hurly blacksmith of the
village: ''you can't get in"'
Il will Stand back. This is crime.
| Let me so in!'
"Hark. Stand aside! They're coming
OUT
! 1t was true; the wedding march had
again burst forth, and Sylphide Coura-
mont was standing there before him
bride. another's' wife. As though his
had been the only face in all that sea
of faces, she saw him and recoiled a
/ step. In the next moment, she recover
ell herself, and smiled and bowed to him.
though her face was as pallid as the
dead.
Oscar Couramont raised his hat and
fixed his eyes upon the man at Sylphide' 5
side with look that paraiyzed the be-
holders

This" as he called it, was piece
of oilcloth spread over an iron grating
in front of an empty store. 1t was
covered with all sorts of coins, of
every denomination in value, made in
every country where metal Is used as
currency. The cheapest coin for sale
was 10 centSa piece of Austrian cop
per; the most expense was $50, a Rus
sian copper coin of a date that none
but collectors would appreciate. A
number of persons have stopped to
look at it since he began the curbstone
business, but no purchaser has put
his hand into his pocket.
Another object of public curiosity,
is bit Of metal covered with verdi
girls. which the old coin man has la
beled "the widows mite" The price
of that depends on the bargain one
can make with him, but he says 1t is
high. The majority Of coins he has for
sale cost from 80 cents to 81.

TENT ENDEAvOR FALLS.
Eight Thousand Participants in Dem
yer Convention in a Panic.


The immense tent in which the meet
ings of the Christian Endeavor conven-
ton were held in Denver was torn from
it's guy ropes and poles by sudden
souall Monday afternoon and thrown
down upon the heads of the 5000 persons
there assembled. A calamity was avert
ed only by the presence OF mind OF CHI
cage delegate, a NJ. Ramsey, who the
moment the wind bellied up the canvas
and tore it from its supports called to
the men in the gathering to catch the
poles as they FELL and. standing on their
chairs to hold up the canvas, thus pre-
venting suffocation.
The convention was in full progress at
o'clock and although there were signs
of rain and some wind was blowing the
sides of the tent were UP 10 admit ar
and this enabled the squall to hit up the
big canvas as if ii were balloon. Inc
gust Of wind that turned the tent over
came so suddenly that no preparation
could be made to foreStall the conse-
uuences. The wind swept under the tent,
the roof of which Immediately belched
out like an immense sail. The smaller
guy ropes were pulled from their places
and in moment more the big poles were
drawn from the ground.
Immediately the 5000 persons were in
a panic, which was heightened by the
screams of hundreds of women. 1t was
then that Mr.. Ramsey sprang to chair
and called loudly on the men to hold up
the canvas and catch the large support
ing poles as they fell. Hundreds of men
Sprang to their feet and successfully car
ried out the Chicago mans suggestion
and thus aycrted disaster
Another instance of presence of mind
was that Of Mrs. Winifred Sleep of Den
yer, who was in charge of st. Mark $
hospital tent, seeing the catastrophe ut
the big tent, close by, telephoned the
electric light company to shut off the cur-
rent. This prevented any damage frytl
the live wires that had fallen with the
tent poles
The injured numbered score, but for
tunately none of them was seriously hurt
save Mrs Jessie NJ. Thornburgh of Den
yer, who, however, is expected to re-
cover.
That none of the great audience of
5000 or 5000 persons was killed or fa-
tally injured is regarded by Christian
Endcavorcrs and others as almost mirac-
ulous. The tent which was $50 feet
long by 1870 wide and ffty-siX feet high
in the center. was owned by the United
Society of Christian Endeayor and was
sent ITO Denver from Boston. 1t is "a
complete wreck.

Mr.. GORMAN'S RELIGION.

Under the above caption the At

Bile editorial:
In recent summary OF the con.
ditions surrounding Arthur p German
as candidate for the presidency,
The News mentioned, among other
Incidents. the statement DIade some
time ago that he was a member OF
good standing OF the Catholic church,
"A friend OF Senator German, writ
ing from Maryland, begs to correct
the impression, and atlirms that the
senator has always Decn a member Of
the Protestant evangelical churches,
1T really does not make any diff
ference to thoughtful people what SEN
ator Germans religious affiliations NAV
be. if he believes in God and the con
stitution of his country
1t is only the narrow and fanatical
who would be influenced by the cur
rent of religious belief in the man who
was presented for a pGYely secular
Office. There are good men and true
men and patriotic men in all dcnomi-
tions and in all churches, and as our
contemporary of the Montgomery
Journal well says, Americans vote for
their public servants not because they
are Presbyterians or Catholics. Jews
or Episcopalians, Methodists or Zap
fists. but because they are aolc, hon
est competent.
The last two decades have seen
more Presbyterian presidents than in
the whole previous half century Of
the government. But the policy of
this government has not been Presby-
terrain. either in the appointment to-
Office or in any other way of that
religious denominations.
The mention of Senator Germans
religion was one of the many items OF
interest connected with the man who
occupied for the time being the cen
ter of the stage. 1t is always inter
esting to know the details of life
that may be linked with history"
