co, was made in fourteen days. The
/ club travelled in private car and
gave a concert every night excepting
| the two Sundays. The trip was made
through some of the most interesting
country in America, and the collegiaas
were given every facility for making
a thorough study of the geography
topography, water courses. natural re-
sources, commercial and industrial
possibilities and races of the territory
adjacent to the line of travel
The journey itself has been liberal
education for the fortunate young men
of the party.
In return for the splendid treatment
1t received from the railroad company
the club put on thirteen concerts that
without exception were received with
great enthusiasm by the large audi
ences of railroad people to whom
they were given. Seven thousand OF
the employees of the Santa F'e and
their families listened to the Knox
boys sing, and judging from their ex-
pressions to railroad officials, each
other and to newspaper men, the
club took better than any other
attraction that has ever been over the
line.
The club ca has been hauled over
three great mountain ranges, through
every extreme of climate by twenty
six trains handled by thousands Of
men, and the club has not deviatet
by ten minutes from the schedule oil
concerts arranged before Galesbure
was left With the exception of two
men who lost one night on account OF
illness, no member of the club has
missed a concert, nor has any man
been tardy by SO much as minute
In transcontinental trip of this IA
ture this is considered a remarkable
record for both the railroad and the
club.

success and love. The trembling
hands, the tottering limbs. bespeak a
long and toilsome journey, almost
ended. The peaceful brow and dim,
yet kindly eye, tell of trust and faith
strengthened by past and passing
years And sitting he dreams.
A panorama of ever-changin scenes
passes before him. The playful
ocean; the dim religious light of the
great cathedral, and through it all he
is conscious of a presence, becoming
more and more real, form of sur
passing lovliness, while face, pure
and trusting, gazes into his own with
a look Of tender undying love.
Tears slowly gather and drop upon
the faded picture he holds in his
trembling hand Then his eye grows
brighter. His vision clearer. A burst
of melody rings in his ears. 1t is a
divine rendering of that earthly music
of bygone days. He sees ner whose
image he has all these years treasur-
ed in his heart of love. She stretches
out her beautiful hands and beckons
him. He looks into that loved face,
and gazing, his soul springs to meet
hers in that last, long embrace, which
is eternal.
The deepening shadows gather. The
fire in the CRATE fuckers and dies.
Then silence.
And the flowers that blossomed here
but to wither, have bloomed once
more in fadeless glory.

A PEOPLES PALACE THAT WAS
INSPIRED BY A NOVEL.

The Peoples Palace of Jersey City
shows the method of the up-to-date
church. It was built by a generous
business man, Joseph Milbank, and
planned and managed by the Rev.
John L. Scudder. pastor Of the First
Congregational church. says the De-
lincator. Years ago Mr. Scudder read
Sir Walter Bcsants novel. "All Sorts

idea of a peoples palace was eluct-
dated. MT. Scudder determined to
build such a palace Mr.. Scudder not
