CHAPTER XIII.


That evening the Rev. Arthur Ham
merly sat by his study table trying to
fix his mind upon the sermon he was
writing, but it would wander in spite
OF himself to the scene in court,
peculiarly trying to one of his sepsi-
blities; for he could but pity the
pale. shrinking woman whose trials
were laid bare to the public gaze,
md he could but pity the one who
had lost the suit, whether guilt or
innocent, for his heart was a merciful
one. So when timid knock came to
his ears he welcomed it as diversion
rom troublesome thought, and wheel
ed from the table just as lady en-
tered in response to his invitation.
1t was Mrs. Hamilton.
The minister arose and bowed hast

The minister's face. Never before had
he seen her stirred from her usual
uueenly bearing, and the sight moved
him as nothing else could.

ELkS WELCOMED.
Official Ceremonies at Tabor Opera
House in Denver.

Denver.-Members Of the great or.
ganization, Benevolent Protective Or.
der of Elks, have been officially wei.
coined to Denver and the state of Col
orado. Ever since they first began arriv.
ing they have been made to feel that
they are welcome. Now they have been
told SO by the governor of the state,
the mayor of the city and the official
representatives of Denver lodge. This
formality occurred Monday night at
the Tabor Grand opera house in the
presence of mighty audience.
In few hours of the morning the
buntings that had been disarranged by
the rains were quickly put in order
and the decorating of houses and
stores went on at a rapid rate. The
streets were packed and jammed with
people from an early hour until well
into night.
By the chairman of the Elks' recep.
ton committee at the depot, who has
made a special effort to keep count on
the number of arrivals, it was stated
at 10 o'clock Monday night that 10000
people had passed through the city's
gates since Friday. This was his es-
innate of the number of visitors who
had come to Denver to attend the con
vention. Other estimates place the
number at $4,000, and this may be re-
garded as conservative.
In the opinion of those who have
been assigned to the depot, it is stated
that approximately 10000 visitors will
be brought to Denver for the conven-
ton, as the rush of visitors will not
cease until after Thursday night, at
the latest.
