CHAPTER XVII.


Colonel Bill Hamilton Plays HIs Lone
Hand.
Young Haldane's first duty was to
distribute manifestos to the newspa-
pers as far as his copies permitted.
Having discharged his errand, with
be one copy which he had reserved
for himself. he headed for home, hit
ting up a tremendous pace as he
raced along the almost deserted
streets.
Before he had left to warn Gormly,
he had in few hasty words given
his sister an inkling Of what was
about to happen. He knew that she
would be awaiting the result of his
interview with an anxiety not to be
measured. In q short time. therefore.
he placed the confession in her
hands With straining eyes and throb-
bing heart the girl devoured the type
written pages.
Her feelings were q singular com
pound Of varying emotions. For one
thing, there was relief that 1t was no
worse; for another, there was ad
miration at the boldness and courage
with which the man had grappled with
q desperate situation, the dexterity
and resource with which in perfect
honor and dignity he had extricated
himself from the dilemma in which
the opposition had sought to plunge
him, the magnificent audacity with
which he had faced the crisis and
dominated the interview: lastly. there
was a keen, terrible pang of jealousy
and bitterness toward that other wom-
an. II was this last emotion that was
self revealing.
Eleanor Haldane knew now that
she loved this man. She realized in
this unveiling of her heart that prob
ably she had loved him all the time:
| Nat the other feelings and emotions
hich he had stirred in her heart and
- had sought to characterize by diff
ferent words were now blended into
passion as great as his.own.
She sat quite silently. staring at
the paper, reading the lines over and
over again. thinking her thoughts, uu-
til her brother, who had absented him
self for a brief space. came back into
the room.

CHURCH FOR CHILDREN ONLY
Worcester, Mass, Has First lnstltu.
tlon Of Its kInd-coIIection
Taken Up by Boys.

The original children's church of
America, organized along the exact
lines Of the larger ones, has been es.

G. F. Hill Crathern.
The service is similar to that for
adults. At the opening familiar

prayer, during which all the children
bow their heads. The scripture lesson
is read by Rev. Mr.. Crathern from one
of the versions of the Holy Writ
which is in story form The collection
is taken up by four boys.
This is followed by sermon by
Rev. Mr.. Crathern of nature that
any child could understand.
The children, In order to be active
members of the church, have to sub
scribe to simple creed and in addi.
ton must know the Ten Command
ments, the Shepherds psalm, the beat
itudes, the new commandment, the
faithful saying, the apostles creed
and the meaning of the Sacrament.
To aid them in preparation for mem
bership there is weekly class at the
home of the PASTOR where all car

become full members. The plan Is
to have the children step from thei,
church into, the adult body when thu
proper time comes.
A choir Of boys h;ss been organized
and at least one hymn is sung by them
at every service The girls of the
church have organized themselves
int society which has been called
the Lambs of the Flock, whose worh
Is to look after charitable work.

The Association. however, finally
got in its sting. After a fve-years'
fight they helped get the Interstate
Commerce Act SO amended in 1908
that the Interstate Commerce Com
mission has the power to prescribe
rates. This resulted in reduction of
from s. to 81 per car on cattle rates,
and has saved the cattlemen millions
of dollars. Even then the Santa Fe
railroad. and probably other roads,
operating in the same territory, were
able to make, as shown in the Texas

the expense of buying fodder for the
herd, and the sitting around watching
them eat up the profits. When the
cars finally arrive, if the number is
short, the animals have to be crowd
ed in with the almost certain risk of
more loss. Then perhaps the cars
crawl over the country at the rate
of twelve miles an hour, and this in
efficiency costs the cowman still more,
in fodder, and in the shrinkage and
deaths of the imprisoned creatures
suffering from crowdingg, from long
standing, and from thirst.
To prevent this needless waste, the
Association is urging the Interstate
Commerce Commission to prescribe
the speed limit when necessary. to Sc
