SOME OF THESE EARLY CHRISTIAN MIS-
 sIONARlEs ENTERED BRITAIN.
 There are traditions that Christianity was preached by St Paul, by Lazarus, by Joseph of Arimathea. But we may here dismiss mere legend. The fact remains that Christianity was early established there, and in 314 three British bishops appeared at the COun- Gil of Aries. But these early British Christians were driven by the Morse and Wales, and the greater part of England still remained heathen.
 Some of you perhaps remember that beautiful story of Gregory the Great. As he passed one day through Roman slave market he was struck Dy the beauty of some fair-haired children, and being told that they were Angles he exclaimed that they ought rather to be called Angels, and straightway resolved to go some day as missionary to Angle-land. But he was called to be Bishop of Rome, and the long. cherished missionary work had to be left for England with 40 monks. His mission was successful; he became the first Archbishop of Canterbury. Years afterward the remains of the earlier British Christianity were assimilated, and there was established the great historic Church of the English-speak- ing people. Who can count the num- Der of her saints or the influence of their lives! We recall perhaps the names of Alban, Alden, Cuthbert, the venerable Bede, George Herbert, John Keble. Long under tribute to the bishops of Rome, often oppressed by the tyranny of wicked kings, some times rent by the schisms of unholy men, she yet survives in strength and proclaims to men the Gospel of Salva- tion.
 Three hundred years ago this con- ing spring, B years before the landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth Rock, there landed at Jamestown, Virginia, a little company of English churchmen. The Rev Robert Hunt, their chaplain, held daily morning and evening prayer, preached on Sunday, and celebrated the Holy Communion quarterly. In the Jamestown church in 1919 was held the first representative assembly of the New World. Let us not forget that ruined ivy-mantled tower of the Jamestown church, and let us not for played Tn the life of our nation.
 THIS AMERICAN EPISCOPAL CHURCH has produced men of whom we are justly Oud,-George Washington, a vestryman, a cOmmunicant, a regular attendant; James Madison, Robert Livingstone, Patrick Henry: Ran. dolph, president of the Congress that set on foot the War of the Re volution, Hamilton and William Samuel Johnson. It has often been charged that many of the Church cler- gy were loyalists at the time of the Revolution; though, where many good men were in doubt, to some it would hardly seem grievous sin to remain loyal to ones sovereign. Yet it is in- teresting to recall that two-thirds of the signers of the Declaration of h. were Churchmen.
 Sometime ago the Rev George T.

Dearth Of
Hay Hands
HUMBOLDT FARMERS UNABLE
TO GET MEN TO WORK
In the Hay Fields and It Is Feared That
Much Hay VIII Be Spoiled AS a Re-
suit Conditions Are Similar in Ev-
cry Part of the County.

Reports coming in from every quar-
ter of Humboldt county would indicate
that there is an unprecedented scarcity
Of men to assist in the hay fields. Ex-
ssively high wages are being offered
in order to induce men to leave the
towns and go into the hay fields, but
there are no men in the towns and as a
result many of the farmers fear that
they will be unable to harvest their full
crop.
During the past week many of the
fa, mers from the outlying districts have
beer in Winnemucca searching for men
to labor in the fields and yesterday was
particularly notable in this respect. As
high as So per day was offered, but to
no avail, there are no idle men, except,
of course, the usual number who would
not work under any consideration.

WCrK
EMINENT DIVINE DELIVERS
TWO EDIFYING SERMONS
Expresses Himsel fAs Being Very Op-
timistic With Regard to Winnemucca
and the Episcopal Church Here-Ad-
vises Building at Once.

Bishop Morsland, the eminent Epis-
copal divine, who spent several days in
Winnemucca in the work of his calling,
occupied the pulpit in the local church
both morning and evening and his dis
courses were filed with beautiful and
elevating thoughts relating to some
phase of Cariatianity. He also was pres
ent during the session of the Sunday
school and addressed the many children
present in instructive and interesting
terms. One little miss Irma Steele, hav-
ing memorized the entire chatechism,
was presented beautiful Bible by
the kev. brann, the dedication being
made by the. Bishop. Inc Sunday school
rcceivea the commendation of the Bish-
op upon its eincient work.
During the morning service Bishop
Moreland chose as his text the Holy
Communion, ana the large audience
present w,re 10th charmed and moved
to higher thoughts by the directness
and lorce OF the divine lesson con aine d
IN the many beautiful parallels and con-
trasss wAIcA constituted his sermon.
AT the evening service his remarks
were equally as effective and because
of the nature OF his text, even more
beautiful. lie chose The Trinity as
his subject, and the manner in which
he handled it wall long live pleasant
and instructive memory in the minds
of his many fortunate hearers.
Incidentally during his visit in Win
nemacca Bis4op Moreland expressed
hias 1t as beng very optimistic regard
ing the future of Minnemucca and more
particularly the Episcopal church in
this city. He urged that they begin the
erection of their new church at once.
Also, we negl csed to mention elsewhere
in this article, he officiated at the con-
frmation services while eight people
were confirmed in the faith of the Epls-
copal church. Their names follow:
Mr.. and Mrs. J. H. Dawney, Mrs. Ed
ward Cave, Mrs. f. Stauffer, Edna
Stauffer, lrma Steele, Florence Wagner
and Alice Wagner. Mrs. w. C. Case
was received into the church at the
same service.
Bishop Moreland departed on No.

held his attention in Winnemucca. Be
yond a doubt his visit here has been
productive of much good as future i'm

to the Silver State office that we might

After listening to the story which is
told in manly, straight forward man
aer ard with no attempts at evasion, we
are thoroughly convinced that the little
hap is deserving of pity and should re-
ceive assistance from some source. He
is more than willing to work, only lack
the o~portunity.
Previous to the great disaster at San
Francisco, which entirely cut off his
means of support, he lived with an un-
Gle, his parents being dead, and since
his seventh or eighth year has been
supporting himself by doing odd jobs
about the great city and lodging with
his uncle. He and his uncle lost the roof
which covered them in the big fire and
the lad lost, moreover, the means of
Livelihood. His uncle, at this critical
iuncture, decided to go east and with
oct leaving the lad so much as penny,
departed. The boys emaciated features
are pitifully suggestive of the manner
in which he has lived since the time he
was deserted by his uncle, until he ar
rived in Winnemucca, Sunday. Mr..
Werner has provided a room and bed
for him at the Lafayette hotel and will

story shall be moved by pity and love

GEORGE H. LONG ARRESTED
NEAR SYRACUSE, KANSAS

Sheriff Esser returned here at noon
Tuesday, having in custody George H.
Long, who left here about ten days ago
with a wagon and team upon which
]. E. Mcclure held chattel mortgage
for about ninety dollars. Long left
here in the night, taking his wife and
family with him, and it was believed
that he was endeavoring to make his
way to the Indian Territory with the
stolen property
Inquiry was made by the officials
at many points in the eastern part OF
the state in relation to Long, but moth
ing was heard of him until last Sunday
when it was learned that he had been
seen at La Junta Sheriff Esser left
at once for the purpose of bringing
him back, If possible. Proceeding to
Syracuse, Kansas, on the theory that
Long would pass through that place,
Sheriff Esser instituted inquiries and
learned that the fugitive had been seen
there few hours before.
Procuring livery rig and inviting
the sheriff of Hamilton county to ac-
company him, the two officers started
on Longs trail, whom they overlook
about fifteen miles east of Syracuse.
Long offered no resistance, and with
his wife and their sixteen months-old
child and the team he was driving, was
taken back to Syracuse, where with
Sheriff Esser he boarded the train for
the return trip to Canon City.
Mrs. Long and child were left at
Syracuse, where they are at present
being cared for by the sheriff Of the
county The wagon and team, which
