to see how 1t had happened. The win

muslin curtains had blown far out
into the room, touching the fare OF the

out to meet the fire!
There was no time to cry out, there
was no time for anything but to strip

waving curtain, to wrap the baby inithe

bits of muslin that dropped on the chif-

getting the baby to place of safe

Little Mrs Delevan laughed feebly.
She was sitting on the floor in the
wreck Of her fnery, but her eyes were
shining.

And there they founa her, cooling as
she pulled at the jeweled buttons of
the fur coat.
Marcia came back with the baby in
her arms, and looked at little Mrs.

BAND HAS BEEN
HELP TO ST. CHARLES

St Charles. May. 4-Just fifteen years
on the 6 of June the St. Charles brass
band received their instrument from the
East. With s. w. Trembling as band
master they began practicing in earnest
and on the following 4th Of July, when
our town people turned ont enmasse to
celebrate the nations birth, it was with
delight we caught the stirring strains Of
America and other familiar pieces from
our new band. AT the close of the morn
ing service on that memorable holiday
which was interspersed with its music
and while standing under the folds of
our loved stars and stripes, the popu-
lace gave vent to their enthusiasm by
three hearty cheers for our brass band
that in less than a month had made
such creditable beginning,
From that time till now it has lived
and flourished. Many have belonged to
its ranks who have long since gone into
other ways and walks of life, and others
have taken their places, but through all
those changes s. w. Trembling has
been the leader, and has never missed
q practice when he was at home, and
never late in keeping his appointment
with the band more than once or twice,
making record in pnnctuality that
any one might envy.
The band boys have ever been lavish
with their music, because it has been
appreciated by the people.
Their music has been popular because
of the splendid harmony which accom-
panied it and which soma similar organ
izations have lacked.
They have added pleasure to all our
holidays and the monotony of work
days has often been broken by their
marching and playing through town.
On Decoration day the band has led the
procession to the Silent City,, and its
sweetly solemn strains were waited to
us while we placed sweet blossoms on
the graves of our dear dead. who rest
beneath "coyerlets of clayp,. The last
public service they rendered was at the
dedicatory service of the site of oar
proposed meeting house on April, Is,
Since that time Bro. Trembling has
resigned his place, as the infirmities of
age are laying hold of him, he feels
himself unable to longer meet the re-
quirements of band master, but he still
gives his services in conducting the
ward and Sunday school choir, which
be has done for many years past,
His successor has not been named, but
We hope that the boys will continue
their good work and hive and grow and
flourish as long as music hath charms
to soothe the savage BEAST.
Let us hot fail to appreciate all that
our friends are doing. the unselfish work
they give the public while they are with
rs, nor wait with our kind words of
praise until death has closed their eyeg.
and sealed their lips forever.
