He breathed more freely.
The light stopped again, made prise

ed his head and saw poor little
house. He thought. "The home Of Mu.

In great distress he bade adieu to
his dreams of the sea and resiguedly

married and had nothing to do with

Mirie. 'Muchette will not be my wife.

And Mirie in ecstacy followed the
light on as he had promised. A pale
light Of day pierced the fog. The river
became wider and wider. No more
trees on the bank no more green
fields. no more wooded hills but low
domes which ended in sandy flats.
All at once a great breath of lifesiv-

THE TEST OF MIRIE.

In the little sitting room. where Il
was already growing dark, the old man
sat opposite the young sailor. On the
table vas a little statute Of the virgin
IN old faier.ce near little board and a
new candle.
''You owe me obedience" said the
old sacrlstan to his nephew, because I
am your only relative and because I
have always lived honestly In the
shadow OF the church Now, | have

your life whom The Virgin will have
chosen for your happiness"
Mirie's respect for his uncle and his
faith in the Virgin compelled him to
make the trial in spite Of his repue-
nance. He took the candle. the statue
and the board kissed his uncle, then
with slow steps and heavy heart set

It was dark night when Mirle
passed through the sleeping village and
gained the river. All was deserted aud
silent
Mists rose from the water and float

slowly along the bank.
All at once the wind went down, the
water was like mirrar: not
breath made the candle flicker, and be-
fore it the mist seemed to disappear, 30
that Mirie had no fear OF losing sight
OF 1t.
He was getting into locality little
known to him, and 1t appeared more
and more lonely. At each step his
heart was more oppressed by the
thought of staying In this place and
being so far from the sea.

Mirie saw through the mist a new
house. Having been for a walk in this

recognized the house and exclaimed in
a choking voice:

sorrowfully he approached and raised
his hand to rap. when the widow
showed light and Mirie saw two en-

THEY MEN MOLD CONFERENCE.
Necessity of Tariff Revision Will be
Brought Home to Iowa Members.

Brought Home to Iowa Members.
DIES MONIES, Iowa, Dec. 26-Con-
ferences of Governor Cummins' politi-
cal friends here yesterday resulted in
inst one determination, and that is that
Iowa congressman are to be impressed
with the fact that tariff revision SEN
timent exists in great volume in Iowa
and must be taken into account. No
decision was reached as to the candi-
date to succeed Governor Cummins.
Men who attended the conferences say
that the governor himself advised
against any hurried action as to nam
ing candidate. But the governor
was equally positive that there should
he no backsliding on the tariff revision
issue.
Senator Funk says: Those friends
If the governor who are impressed
with his tariff views, believe that his
position has steadily gained ground
ground for months. We have a mixed
delegation from Iowa in congress SO far
as tariff views are concerned. The
governors friends, whom We believe to
he in the majority in Iowa should be
loval and do all in their power to i'm
press their representatives in congress
that they favor special tariff legisla
ton. | am safe in saying that those
who talked with the governor in what
the newspapers choose to call confer
method of action
1t was suggested by Tow Way that
personal letters be addressed to con-
gressmen from political and business
leadesr throughout the state. These
letters will be designed to awaken the
congressman and senators to the inte-
rest Iowa has in the tariff, and more
especially to the interest the farmers
have in the revision of certain burden
some schedules.
Grant Club Shaken.
An embarrassing situation exists
here because of an interview with
Judge Smith. Jefferson, published To-
cally, in which the jurist is quoted as
asking: rs the Grant club of Des
Moines being manipulated as an A. B.
Cummins club?'
Posing as a non fractional organiza-
ton the Grant club stands in the
front rank of republican organizationh
in the west. Upon it's roll of members
are written the names of Allison, Shaw,
Cummins ,Dolliver, Mcpherson, all of
the Iowa congressman and many nom
orary members, including leading re-
publicans throughout the nation.
The indirect charge that the club is
being manipulated in the interest OF
Judge Mcpherson, who is a 'standpat-
ter furnishes the basis for an ugly
entanglement For quarter of
century the CLUB has existed without
friction. The annual meeting was to
have been held last Thursday and
Judge +. H. Hubbard of Sioux City anu
Ex-Governor Cummins were to deliver
addresses. The day after Judge NC
Pherson's caustic question appeared
the meeting was postponed, ostenslply
because Congressman Hubbard was III
and unable to speak.
Judge Mcpherson now denies that
there was the slightest bitterness In MS
remark. He insists that he didn't ask
the question as it was quoted at ALL
and that what he did say was not
intended as a reflection upon either the
management of the club or the COVER
norS friends.
