T., March 12.—T noticed in The Baptist Standard, of your city, an article written by ‘‘Psalm Singer,” who does me great injustice. When I first met him in Helena, M. T., on my own platform at the opera house, I asked him to take part and make himse!f generally useful in the meeting, but he told me he could not speak wivhout an essay written on a sub- ject. I thought he must be a poor rooster that could not speak in a gospel tomperance meoting; butb after 1 looked at him and sizod him up 1 pitied the cause in which he was engaged and the congregation that he represented. He put me in mind, more than any man that I ever saw on earth, of what Bar- num calls the *“What is it. 1 can prove what he has written to be a lie. In the first place, I had no notion of going to Helena as early as I did. I was not_ invited by any of the ministers, as you know 1 only travel on my own hook; 1 am under no salary, hire my own opera houses, and work for no ono seot, but work for God and humanity. The way I came to go to Helena so quickly I met some of the gang—John L. Sullivan, Steve Taylor and the rest of tho outfit; and as they were going to Holena to spar for the dovil, I thought [ would go over there and spar for God, 1 was in town three days before any minis- ter knew that I was there. I hired the opera house on my own responsibility, as usual, and then ly asked the ministers if they would not volunteer to help me the first night. 1 did not know shat there was a revival going on in the town till Sunduy night, and when I heard it I re- joiced, thinking that they would be able to get the crowd after I would leave, and reach the prodigal that I had been instru- mental in straightening u}). As he says he is from God and I am from the devil, surely he ought to have more power than Ihave in reaching the erooked, but he acknowledges that Ben Hogan's devil has mores power than his God. If T had such a God I would shake him, I would get God that would draw full houses, and and not talk to empty boys say, ‘‘this bloke,” had common. sense or Christ in his heart he would not ve written such an iguorant or insult- ing letter, would have stayed in Helena one month, and maybe two, to open up a regular revival in the Methodist church, but I did not wish to interfere with the *‘What is it,” so I gave him full swing of the town. I closed on Friday aad Sat- urday, and would not speak till Sunday, The town was heavily advertised by pro- gramme and press for his meetings, [ thought surely the gang would all be there, but to my surprise there was only about thirty on” Friday night. I meet those shabby genteels, too honest to steal thoy say, tco proud to beg and too lazy too work; they connect themselves tosome congregation and impose upoa the church. They are a disgrace on the i latform! They can do no has been instrumental in saving about four hundred souls from a drunkard’ rave in Helena.

I spoke to full houses while was here. God has blessed me in this country beyond my expectations. Over 1,000 families have been made happy by my coming to this country. T trust that the Baptist Standard will copy this article, so that the evangelist will be able to read it. I understand he does not read secular papers. No doubt he is afraid he might read something that would take the virtue out of him. Bex Hoaan. ——— Helped Her Out, “‘For years have been a severe sufferer from pains in the back. Tried various applications. Une bottle of Dr. Thomas' Eclectric Uil entirely cured me. Cured others equally quick.” Mrs, Bennivg of 14th St., Buffalo, wrote this, e — Steel Production, Erio (Pa.) Herald. The production of steel in this country has developed into wonderful proportions during the past fifteen years and recent- ly it has become customary to speak of steel as the metal of the future. For many purposes it is far superior to iron, but until the discovery of improvedand econ- omical methods of production the greatly incrensed cost of manufacture prevented the vory general use of the steel in large quantities, This was especially true of railroads rails, where steel is now almost wholly superseding iron is fast as new roads are built aud old rails areworn out. The manafacture of heavy ironrails (other than strap rails) in this country was not begun until 2844, and in 1849 the pro- duction of such rails was 21,712 gross tons., From that time there was a com- paratively steady incresso until 1872, when the annual production of iron rails reached its maximum in America. The mills turned out & little over 800,000 tons in that year. Nearly all the steel rails are manufac- tured by the Beseemer proces. An idea of the magnitude of the business at pros- ent, and of the enormonus increase of pro- duction, may be judged from the factthat the output increased from 2277 gross tons in 1867 (when steel rails were first made to fill orders) to 1,491,384 in 1882, when the maximum was reached. In 1883 the production amounted to 1,119,676 tons, showing aconsiderable decrease compared with the two preceding years, Ever since 1877 there has been but little difference between the production of steel ingots and rails in this eountry and England, uring the past soven years was 7,424,270 tons in America and 5 105,168 in Great Brit- ain, and the wmanufacture of steel rails 5,838,800 tons in this country, aad in Great Britain 5,758,460 tons. Thore are at present fifteen Bessemer works. in the United States, of which nine are wow in in operation erabout ready to begin work, The American works are now alla topro- duce more than the amount needed in this country. The wonderful progress of steel-making in the past seveuteen years has been due, of courss, to a pro- teotive tariff; but the point has now been reached where a further growth will de- pend upon a demand for steel for pur- poaea for which it is not now wsed. demand will come with cheaper steel; bt as wages cannot be npw&efi: KO any lower than they now awe, it is probadle that only cheaper raw materials and in. proved processes can insure a retura. of the aotivity that prevailed a fow years 2go.

The new enterprise is in the hands of men who are determined to complete it at as early a day as possi- ble. C€aptain J. W. Smith was recently | elected president of the California & Ne- vada railroad, the narrow-gauge that will soon link this city with Denver, Col. Captain Smith has had a large and suc- cessful esperience in railroad building in the west. A reporter of the Chronicle met him yesterday and inguired: 1 “What drew you to California, Cap- | tain?”" ‘1 sought this beautiful climate for | my health:and did not intend to enter ' any more: railroad enterprises, but the( splendid: opportunity offered for the con- struction of a narrow-gauge road from Oakland ower the mountains to Denver broke down my resolutions to devote my time to the pleasures of retirement.” ““Have you invested largely in the Denver and Colorado?” “Yes.

Presently, however, the soli- tary clerk, likewise ad@icted with hunger, left the car locking the door after him, so that when Postal Clerk Southall re- turned he found the door fastened.
