Stakkels Fru Highbury vidste like, ON hun
skulde lie eller bliye vred. Saa valgte hun en- Mid
delvej. Hun gyngede sig. Hendes runde Ansigt
havde ct forbavset og fornermet Udtryk, og hun
yentede iyrig paa, at Frgken skulde forklare sig.

NITTENDE KAPITEL.
Kirkeforstanderen blander sig i Sagen.

Hr. Highbury var en- Presbyterianer af vest
Pennsylvania St9bning. Aarhundreders Opdragelse
i de kalvinistiske Lnresatninger og de presbyteri-
anske FORMER havde efterhaanden %frembragt en-
Wis nedarvet Tpnkemaade. Han kunde like Sc no.
get andet Lys end Diet, han havde sine nedar-
vede Meninger. Fremfor alt burde disse Metho-
distpaddehatte, som intet gjorde semmeligt og med
0rden, ford9mmes.
AT t~ilstaa, at ret mango af dem var Kristne,
Wide vere at meme, at Gud havde foretrukket at
omvende flere Mennesker we'd en- usund Trosler-
dom, der haldede til Pelagianismen, end we'd den
rene Lardom ON Guds Almagt og ubetingede For
Understandable.
Den kendsgerning, at saa mango Methodister
faldt fra, var for ham Beviset paa, at de like hav-
de ret meget af Guds Made iblandt dem.
Da Hr. Highbury af sin Frue herte, hvad Fro
ken Mare hayde f~ortalt, f9lte han at Advarslens
og Bebrejdelsens Stund var kommen. Den sidste
Winters Opvnkkelse hayde irriteret ham. De store
Skarer, som samlede sig i Methodistkirken, var
ham en- Torn 0jet. Kirkesamfund med f~orskellig Be
kendelse er ligesom Urtekremmerne paa hver sit
Hj0rne misundelige over Naboens for6gede Forret-
ming.
Efter at have debatteret Sagen en- Dagstid ell
Ter to og efterhaanden indset, at Diet var hans Pligt
at tage sig at den, tog Hr. Highbury Torsdag Nor
gen sin Hat og gik ned ad Gaden hen imod Lefau-
res.
DE s~yngende CHRISTOPHER frembragte deres
lblode, eusformige, So, ndyssende Toner. De store
Slyngroser krob belt OPP TIL Kvisten med Armene

Lyden af k9ernes Klokker, og ude Iiorisonten,
hyor den blaa Himmel med de hvide Skyer syntes
at ber9re Jorden, laa der eft gennemsigtigt Slor
over de gr6nne Baker. Men ingen Greshoppe

og intet Syn af dejlige Rosenbuske eller grpnne
Baker eller af de bl9de, hvide Skyer, som sejlede
over Diet u~endelige blaa Himmelhav, rorte Kirke-
forstanderens Sjel.
Highburys Synskreds var indskrenket. Den
indeholdt kun ham selv, hans Familie, hans Handel
og hans Kirke. Alt andet var langt borte Diet
taagede Fjerne. Der er en- Synskreds hvert Men

Men Hr. Wittakers Himmel var klar. Han

Hun rejste sig stolt, men hendes fslsomme
Samvittighed bebrejdede hende hendes Vrede, og
hun satte sig after ned uden at vide, hvad hun
skulde gore.

HUNDREDS ESCAPE
BLACK HAND BOMB

New York, Sept. 4.-Two or three
hundred persons who were going
home from an uptown theater short
ly before midnight had a narrow es-
cape from death or serious injury
when Black Hand bomb exploded
before their eyes at the door of an
italian barbershop in 125th street.
They probably owe their safety to
the bravery of Patrick Delany, a
teamster who was passing the door
way Of the little barbershop and
heard the sizzling of the fuse. The
police say the barber has been the
target for threatening letters for
many months. His child, 12-year-
old boy was kidnapped several
months ago, but was returned mys.
teriously after a six week hunt.

DEFER VISIT.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 4.-Eeaders of
the Bull Moose party in Mississippi
are trying to get in touch with Col.
Theodore Roosevelt and learn the date
and place of his speaking engagement
in Mississippi.
While it is believed that Col. Roose-
welt intends to make one speech in
Mississippi on the day following his
address at the Tri-State Fair in Mem
phis, nothing definite to this effect has
been learned, and the Progressive
leaders desire some authentic informa-
tion. in order that they can make plans
for the event
DR.. j. C. French, of Natchez, one
OF the delegates to the Bull Moose
convention, wants Col. Roosevelt to
speak in Jackson, because of the cen
trail location Of this city, but Hon. B.
F. Fridge, of Ellisville, the national
committeeman for this state, prefers
that the address be delivered at some
city in the southern part of the state,
either Laurel or Hattiesburg, believ-
ing that the Progressive party has bet
ter prospects in that part of the COM
monwealth.
The management of the State Fair
in Jackson would like for the Big Bull
Moose to defer his visit until the an.
nual exhibit of the states resources
in this city, from Oct. 21st to 26th,
but it is hardly probable that Col
Roosevelt can arrange his plans to be
in this section of the south a few days
prior to the November election, when
he will doubtless be filling engage
ments in doubtful states.

in the presidential fight in NJ
These majorities, which have averaged
close to 10000 in all the state elections
in Vermont in presidential years since
1892, were represented yesterday by
a bare plurality.
The Republican loss apparently
went in a great degree to the Progress
sive and to a somewhat lesser extent
to the Democrats.
The falling off in the Republican
vote began with the first returns,
while the Progressive gained all along
the line, in some cases carrying towns
which heretofore had been regarded
as strongly Re- ublican.
Yet the disaffection from the Repub-
lican ranks did not extend very far
beyond the head of the ticket. Many
towns that showed strong Progressive
tendencies sent Republican Represen-
tatives to the Legislature, so Republl-
can party leaders were assured early
of substantial majority on joint bal
lot for Governor, as the failure of a
candidate to get a majority at the
polls throws the election into the Leg
islature.
Progressive leaders were greatly
pleased with the results. It was point
