ly in, deeper and deeper, till he was
up to his shoulders and hardly able to
keep his footing. Essie had ceased
struggling, and was just sinking as
he reached her.
How the boys, who had gathered
even in these few minutes, cheered as
they saw him grasp Essie in his arms
and try to lift her above the water!
He had not strength for that. He
could only hold her and stand with
her dark curls touching his fair head.
The water filled his ears and numbed
his limbs. He never heard the shouts
or saw the boat coming up. 1t was
only a brief space he stood, but 1t
seemed to him lifetime.
"Now, then, give me the girl, and
you scramble in," said the park-keeper.
But Johnnie could not, so the keeper
| shipped his oars and somehow hauled
the two on board. Johnnie never
| answered his questions, only held
Essie tight in his arms. What a
time it seemed before those dark eyes
| opened! Johnnie took no notice of
the advice to Run home quick and
change!" He stood by Essie. He felt
as if he was fully repaid when Essie's
voice called for Johnnie"
"It's all right" he said, 81 guess
I'll look after you myself next time"
you're a nice boy, and love YOU"
said a'd.sne.s.-AT'y*-lL.-1...x she. il. =.
There was just the same stupid look
on Johnnie's face, and Essie clung to
him, only little paler than usual, as
they walked into school next Sunday.
Nobody laughed at them. The choir
boys crowded round the two as they
| came into the service. They could
| not tell what to make of Johnnie, for
he seemed so unconscious of any
merit, and Essie was too shy to say
much.
wait bit, you two" said the or
ganist, when the service was over.
And they waited.
Johnnie" said the organist, laying
his hand on the boys shoulder, ''the
boy who was so brave can't be fool.
What is there you really care to learn
about?"
Johnnie hesitated, but Essie lifted
her eyes shyly and said:
Johnnie wants to play your music
thing, sir; and he isn't stupid
boy"
To hof
"Yes, please sir" said Johnnie.
Every well, then, Johnnie, we'll see
about it."
provided you're very good boy"
said the vicar, warningly.
"Johnnie's always dood boy" said
Essie
The old vicar is getting feeble nova
days, but he manages to make his
way every month to the new town
hall to listen to the organ recital, for
it is his pride to relate that the IA
nous organist, whom the corporation
so highly value, was once a stupid
choir-boy of his own church.
"He had plenty of pluck, and he was
a brave lad, and a lad bound to win
in the end" he will say. Sometimes
he will stop to speak to a dark-eyed
and rarely beautiful woman who is
always TO be seen there-the organ
lists wife, or Mrs. Johnnie" as some
folks call her.
Johnnie never gave her queens
crown, and she never asks for it now.
Sometimes he reminds her of her
childish longings, and always her an
swer satisfies him.
Johnnie, l know your love has
crowned me always, and that makes
me so happy would not change it
for the crown royal itself. Esther Of
old was a woman, too, and I think
the love of the king was worth more
to her than the crown"

The reason that llaleiwa made no

lead and prejudice the voters for a
purpose"
The little incidents of a mans life,
and the things he does from day to
day for the good of his community,
reveal his real character. Nineteen
years ago the Rev. N. A. Stull. now
resident of Highland. came to Troy to
organize a Christian church. The lit
building. and were given the use of
the NJ. f. church in which to hold
their meetings. After eight days the
Methodist quarterly meeting was to
be held there. and the Christians
had to discontinue. Rev. Stull was
discouraged in having TO give up the
meetings when SO much interest was
being manifested. WaiKfng down the
street he met Mr.. Leland. who told
him to go and use his hall without
charge until the Christian congrega-
ton could build an edifice. Mr..
Leland sent teams to the lumber
yard for lumber for temporary seats
and the next day the meetings con-
tinued in the new place. When cold
weather came Mr.. LeianG went to
the church people and told them to
help themselves to his coal, stored in
the rear of the hall. The next year.
on July 4th, the Christian church of
Troy dedicated a new building, and
to help on the last payment, Leland
gave $3.50. He said If they needed a
little more he would help them.
Case of Pat Conway.
In my rambles about Troy / ran
across an intensely human interest
story, and one that reveals the ster-
ling honesty of the Irisnman. Thirty
years ago Pat Conway was a poor
man in Doniphan county. He worked
hard to get a start. He was worthy
and Cyrus Leland was his friend, and
helped him. Pat had running ac-
count at the Leland store and he
would bring in a few hogs and other
farm produce each year and apply it
on the debt. Finally he realized that
to get start he would have to
"go out west" to a new country. "Out
west" then, was Marshall county. Pat
was using one of Mr.. Leiands teams,
to whom he went for advice. Mr..
Leland told him to go ahead and
take the team and that sometime he
could pay him for IL. Mr.. Leland
never heard from Pat Conway again.
About two years ago he received
letter from the county treasurer of.
Noble county, Oklahoma. His name
was Conway and he said he was Pat
Conway's son. Young Conway wrote
that his father was dead, but that dur
ing his life he talked of and worried
about the debt he owed Mr.. Leland

reign because of the belief that their
old friend and neighpor will be the
next governor of Kansas.
Testimony of Preachers.
The Rev. w. H. Morris, pastor of
the M. E. church saId to me: I'm
every respect Mr.. Leland is one of
the truest men and best citizens 1
have ever known. The record of his
long life here Is one of honesty, in
tegrity, good citizenship and sterling
manhood. He has been 50 good and
kind to the worthy poor and unfor-
tunate people of Doniphan county.
In misfortune and sickness he was
always the friend to whom this peo-
pie appealed for aid. without money
and without price, provisions and
groceries would be sent to those in
need, and if the case was one of rear
charity, Mr.. Leland would direct his
clerks to make no charge. If the
people of Kansas knew the human
side of this man as his neighbors
do, his nomination ror governor
would be practically unanimous. We
love and respect him for his great
heart, and because or his interest in
all things that contribute TO a better
civilization. Mr.. Leland helps the
churches. and it is we'll known here
that his support of local candidates
goes to men pledged to enforce the
law. Be 1t said to his credit and to
the credit of the Republican party
of Doniphan county that the county
attorney here has driven every joint
list across the Missouri river. When
Mr.. Leland becomes governor he will
round out a splendid career in Civ
ing to Kansas an honest, business,
law-enforcing administration" ".
81 lived two doors from Mr..
Leland" said NJ. l.. Kemp former
pastor of the Baptist church. 81 do
not know of a more 1deaI nome life
than that which blessed the Leland
home. He was always devoted
husband and loving father. His dear
wife who died fourteen years ago
was his inspiration. His children
idolize him because of the rich love
he pours in endless bounty upon
them. The loving wife and mother
carried to the grave no sweeter mem
DRY than that of the choice affection
and companionship which always ex-
listed between them. 1t is marvel
to those of us who know Mr.. Leland
so well, and are familiar with his
many friendly acts and good deeds,
that he should be characterized as
cold, indifferent and uncharitable
These false accusations are only made
by those who do not know his kindly
nature or who purpose1y wish to mis-

she was able to continue her story.
she told me that for thirty years she
had lived in that house owned by Mr..
Leland free of rent. And that is not
ALL she said. You see that new
room added there? Good Mr.. Leland
knew 1 needed more room and he
built that for me, too. Before my
husband died Mr.. LELAND told him he
had been a good soldier and a good
citizen, and that he would see that /
was cared for as long as I lived. /
can never do enough for Mr.. Leland to
pay him for his kindness to me-"
This old black woman will not be
here much longer. she told me, but
the knowledge that she has a friend
who will keep her to the end is a
blessed solace and comfort In her
breast beats a heart fun of gratitude
to the man who has Fulfilled the
pledge made to her husband before
death called him away. The most
touching scene came when this old
woman tried to tell me between sobs
of the gracious and kindly acts of
the Leland family since her husbands
death. She said they woufo send her
nice presents, take her In the carria ge
with them out to the farm, and sup
ply her table with many delicacies
from the orchard and garden. AS 1
bade her goodbye and passed through
the gate, she called TO me from the
door way and said: "Oh, II had a
thousand votes every one of them
would be. cast for Mr.. Leland for
governor"
