The Trials of a Frontier Minister.

Rev. J. Phillip Anshutz held Epis-
copal services in the Congregational
church Wednesday evening. The
rector is the Episcopal missioner for a
large territory in Montana, and he
says his experience here Wednesday
evening in an attempt to hold services
have not been equalled since he came
to the state. 1t was rainy night
and cold. The rector arrived on the
evening train from Harlowton, and
his coming had not been advertised.
A key to the church could not be
found, and as a last resort the rector
went through the window and open
ed the door from the inside. At $50
people began to straggle in. No fire
was started in the building, because
it was thought there would not be
euough people present to justify hold
ing services. But they kept coming.
Under the discouraging conditions
the fact that they came, and most OF
them were not Episcopalians was a
glowing testimonial to the personal
popularity of the talented young
minister. Judith Gap Journal.
