due time they were married When
the minister congratulated the deacon
the latter smiled knowingly and said:
ASK my wife a month hence wheth-
er she believes the whale swallowed
Jonah"
"Ah, the influence Of husband l
shall be very pleased"
But he wasn't. He called one after
noon when the deacon was working In
his sawfnill and introduced his subject,
AID IL was hardly Off his tongue when
the ex-widow replied;
Il have had three or four rows with
the deacon about it, but I'm doubling
more than ever He says I've got TO
believe, and / say won't, and there
you are"
From thence on, as the neighbors got
to know and whispered about, that
was a sud house. There was never an
hour in the day that some reference
was not made TO Jonah. 1t would
have been a great relief had they
changed off to Daniel in the lions den,
but they never did. 1t had become the
scandal Of the church and the gossip
Of the village, when one day tin ped
dler came along and heard all about II.
Among other houses he called at to
exchange his wares for cash or paper
rags was that of Deacon Williams. All
his talk with the unbelieving wife was
not about trade. He threw out hint
or two as to what could be accomplish
ed by a determined woman. Then
he went down TO the sawmill and got
up a talk with the deacon and during
the conversation managed to announce
the fact that when a widower married
widow and there were no children
all her property at her death went TO
her relatives. The deacon hadn't con-
sidered this fact, and it gave him a
start.
When he went home at noon he said
nothing about Jonah. The wife seem
ed to have been weeping. His dignity
forbade his asking why. Even when
she kissed him he couldn't sacrifice his
pride. Jonah or bust was still his
watchword However, he didn't feel
just right, and he started for home an
hour earlier than usual It was to
find the wife on the bed, apparently
breathing her last, and note on the
stand that she had taken poison.
The deacon hustled for the neigh
bors. He bumped for the doctor. He
galloped to the drug store. He called
himself names. He kicked himself
He actually swore like lightning rod
man. And when all was over and the
doctor said the patient would live, and
the patient said she should still stick
to her old opinion, the deacon shout
ed out:
Hang old Jonah! Hang the old
whale! You can believe what you
want to. and we shall have a happy
home after thisr'
And the tin peddler drove out of
town with happy smile on his face.
He had made good.

When the
Deacon Gave In
By NJ QUAD
Copyright. 1910, by Associated Lit
erary Press.

The Widow Spicer and Deacon Will
liams attended the same church and
had known each other for long time.
The widow shad known the deacon's
wife in life and was with her when
she died.
The Widow Spicer was a church
member, but there were a few things
she SHE'D at For instance, she didn't
believe the whale swallowed Jonah.
Strangely enough, Deacon Williams
had never heard Of the widows disbe-
lief. 1t did not come to his ears until
he had been a widower for three
years and until new minister took
the pulpit When he learned Of it his
surprise was great. He was also in
clined to resent the heresy. He volun-
teered to call and have a talk with
Mrs. Splcer, and the minister thought
it might be good thing, though he
added.
But hope there won't be no heat
ed argument Brother Williams. Argue
gently. Argue on the large size of the
whale and the small size Of Jonah.
Gentle argument and persistency may
accomplish much"
The deacon called and talked about
the weather and the later bugs until
he had opportunity to introduce Jo-
nah. He wanted to 80 right in like
chopping wood, but he remembered
the minister's caution and argued
gently. The widow didn't get fierce
over it, but declared that until she
saw the thing done with her own eyes
she shouldn't believe the whale story.
Deacon Williams left in apparent
good humor, but he didn't feel all
right just the same.
Perhaps we shouldn't be too anx-
Ions about it, said the minister when
he saw that the matter was being
taken very seriously.
The deacon had married a woman
who firmly believed that the sun moved
around the earth 1t had taken him
three years after marriage to bring her
to his way Of thinking, but he had won

ow Spicer and bring her to believe the
whale story? That was the starting
point. From thence the deacon brought
himself to see that Mrs. Spcer had
comfortable home, was said to be a
fine housekeeper and was president of
the Ladies' Aid society and treasurer
Of the Ladies' Heather Benevolent as
ISOLATION Taken all around. it would
not be bad thing. He could have LET
the minister into the little plan, but he
figured to wait and surprise him.
The Widow Spicer thought pretty
well Of Deacon Williams, as all other
folks did. Perhaps her condition was
forlorn. Perhaps she wanted to be
cheered up, Perhaps she fell in love.

GETS TO THE SEABoARD.
Grand Trunk Pacific Makes Arrange
ments.

Montreal Quebec, Oct. 20.--At last
the Grand Trunk Pacific is to come in
to active operation as wheat carrier,
with an unbroken line Of communication
of its own from western Canada to the
seaboard. This is the result of the con-
ferences which have been taking place
between officials Of the Grand Trunk
Pacific. the government and William
Mackenzie Of the Canadian Northern.
The Grand Trunk Pacific conducted an
arrangement with the contractors for
the National Transeontinental from
Winnipeg to Superior Junction, whereby
that company agreed to take over this
section OF the government line pending
permanent agreement with the govern
ment for its operation. A difficulty then
arose a. To how the Grand Trunk Pa
cific was to bridge over the gap between
the end of its line west Of Winnipeg
and the beginning Of the Transcontinen-
tai at Winnipeg. It has been stated
that the Canadian Northern mad agreed
to build a loop to cover the distance
and that ii was only found at the last
moment that it had neglected to do So
rms, however, Is aOaOlulely ueuieu Oh
official authority. The difficulty was
simply one Of negotiation as to the use
oil the Canadian Northern entrance from
the West into Winnipeg.
The negotiations have now been am
icably concluded. The Grand Trunk Pa
cific will use this short section of the
Canadian Northern tracks and win inn
mediately start freight service from
western Canada to the seaboard, using
the Grand Trunks Northern navigation
steamers from Fort William to Midland
and there connecting with the Grand
Trunk proper.

HE WILL TAKE NO PART

New York, Oct 20.--Political confer
enees occupied most of President Taft's
time in New York yesterday No word
had come from Oyster Bay up to noon
however, and it became evident that
there would be no meeting between the
president and Colonel Roosevelt at this
tim. The necessity for two days OF com
plete rest is said to have made it impos-
sible for the colonel to leave Oyster Bay
during the presidents three-day stay in
this city.

county Republican committee yesterday
morning talked over the New York state
situation with the president. Mr.. Girls

interested Mr.. Griscom denied that ef-
forts were being made to have the presi-
dent write letter in behalf of Henry
l.. Stimson, the Republican candidate
for governor, or to have the president
make a speech in New York during
the campaign. The president feels, it il
said, that he has gone as far as he can.
His admiration of Mr. Stimson is of long
standing and he endeayored to express
this admiration in the telegram of con-
graduation sent to the candidate follow
ing his nomination Mr. Griscom said
that if the president were to consent to
speak in New York nearly every other
state would demand visit from him,
and this of course would be impossible.
Otto r. Barnard and State Senator j.
Mayhem Wainwright of Westminster
were among the presidents other political
callers yesterday Hamilton Holt, Jacob
.G. Schnidlapp, the Cincinnati banker,
and John Bass OF New Hampshire, a
brother of the progressive Republican
candidate for governor in that state,
talked briefly with the president. An.
other caller was Walker d. Hines, chair
man OF the board of the Santa Fe rail
road. Mr.. Hines talked over the freight
rate situation with the president.
