He remembered how many times he had sworn to do that and had never had the courage, though it scemed she allured him at times, He overtook Milfon Jennings along the poplar lined lane. “Hello, Milt, where you bound?" Milton loked up with’a curious loo in his laughing ey From the pockets of his long linen duster he drew a handful of beautiful let and yellow Siberian crab-apples. “See them crabs?"” “Yes, I see ‘em. Milton drew a similar handful out of his left_pocket. “Sce those?" “What y' goin' to do with “Take 'em home again.” Ben noticed something which led him to ask: “What did you intend doing with ‘em? “Present ‘em to Miss Cole.” Ben laughed. “Well, why didn’t y* do it?" Milton showed his white teeth in a smile that was frankly derisive of himself. “Well, when I got over there I found young Conley’s horse hitched to one post and Wal Brown's gray hitched to the other.

The Grove school heus: was the largest in the township, and was the only one with a touch of redeeming grace. It was in a Great oaks stood all about and of it, the woods grew thick, and a creek gurgled over its limestone bed not far away, To Ben and Milton there was a charm about the Grove. school house, was the one place where they met the bos and girls in garments disassociated from toil in summer, and on winter nights yeewmns or protracted m iny th came to sae the girls in their bright dresses, with their clear and (23 it seemed) scornful, bright eyes. All through the service Ben sat where he could see Grace by turning his head, but he had not the courage to do so. Once or twice he saw the curve of her cheek and the delicate lines of her ear, and a suffo- cating throb came into his throat. He wanted to ask her to go with him down to Rock river to the Methodist camp- meeting, but he knew it was impossible He could not sy *good-day” to her when she 100k paing to pass near him after church and speak to him. He nodded like a great idiot, all ease and dignity lost, his throat too dry and hot to speak. He cursed his shyness as he went out after his horse. He saw her picking her dainty way up the road with Conrad Sicger walking with her. What made it worse was a dim feeling that she liked him, and would go with him if he had the courage to ask her. “Well, Ben,” said Milton. “It's settled we go Rock river tonight to the camp. meeting.

It was growing dark as they drove up the Cedarville road, a delicious evening hour.

It ‘was charged with the most piercing distress. It cut the heart's palpitating cen- ter like a ponjard thrust. It had murder and outrage in it. The girls clutched Ben and let’s go home! ‘‘No, let's go and see what It is!" The girls hung close to the arms of the young men and they went down to the tent and looked in. It was filled with a motley group of peo- ple, most of them seated on circling benches, fringe of careless or scoffing on-lookers 0od back against the tent wall. Occasionally a Norwegian farm hand, or bevy of young people from some near dis trict, lifted the flap and entered with curious or_laughing or insolent faces. The tent was lighted dimly by kerosene lamps, set In brackets against the tent poles, and by stable lanterns set here and there upon the benches, Hon and Milton ushered in the girls and seated them a little back. The girls smiled, but only faintly. The undertone of women's cri>s moved them in. spita of their scorn of it all. “What cursed foollshness!" Milton. Milton smiled, but did not reply. He only nodded toward the exhorter, a man with a hide Jumble of features and the form of « gladiator, who was uttering wild and ex plosive phrases. Oh, my friends! I bless the lord for the SHALL in the word. You SHALL get light, You SHALL be saved. Oh, the SHALL in the word! You SHALL be saved!

He walked with a furious rhythmic, stumping action, like an Indian in the ghost dance. Wild cries burst from his audlence, antiphonal with his own. “He ‘SHALL' send light!" “Send Thy arrows, oh Lord.” On, God, come!” “He ‘SHALL' keep His word!" One old negro woman, fat, powerful, gloomy, suddenly arose and utiered a scream that ha the dignity and savagery of a mountain lion’s cry. It ran far out into the night The exhorter continued his mad, furious thumping, barbaric wallk. Behind him a row of other exhorters sat, a relay ready to leap to his ald. They urged on the tumult with wild cries, ““Amen, brother. “YES, brother, YES in_rhythm. The exhorter redoubled his fury. like a jaded actor rising at applause. Out of the obscure tumult of faces and tossing hands there came at last certain recognizable features. The people were malnly farming folks of the more lgnorant rt, rude in dress and bearing, hard and bent with toil. They were rocognizably of a class sublect to these low forms of religious exeltement, which were once well nigh uni versal. The outer fringe continued to smile scorn- fully and to jest, yet they were awed, in a way, by this suddenly revealed deep of bar baric emotion. The girls were appalled by the increasing clangor. Milton was amused, but Ben grew bitter. Something strong came out in him, too. His 1ip curled in disgust. Suddenly, out of the level space of bowed shoulders, tossing hands and frenzied, up- ned faces, a young girl leaped erect. She was strong and handsome, powerful in the walst and ‘shoulders. Her hair was braided like a child’s and fell down her back in a single strand. Her head was girlish, but her face looked old and drawn and tor- tured She moaned pitifully; she clapped her hands with wild gestures, ending in a quiver- ing motion. The action grew to lightning- like quickness. Her head seemed to set in its socket. Her whole body stiffened. Gasp- ing moans came from her clenched teeth as she fell to the ground and rolled under the seats, wallowing in the muddy straw and beating her feet upon the ground like a dying pariridge. The people crowded about her, but one of the preachers, a powerful man, with a harsh, domineering volce, roared above the tumult “S' down! Never mind that party. S all right; she's in the hands of the Lord The wild tumult went on and the people settled nto thelr seats again. Ben rose to go over whers the girl was and the others followed A young man seated by the struggling girl held "her hand and fanned her with his hat, while some girl frlends, scared and sobbing, kept the tossing Mmbs covered. She rolied from side to side restlessly, thrusting forth her tongue as If her throat were dry. She looked like a dying anima Maud clung to Milton. “Ob, can't something be done? , “Her soul is burdened for you!" cried & wild old woman to the impassive youth who clung to the frenzied girl's hand. A moment later, as the wild chorus of yells, * clapping their hands He was incantations, shrleks, groans and prayers swellod high, a farmer's wife on the left uttered a hoarse ery and stiffened and fell backward upon the ground. She rolled her head from side to side. Her eyes turned tn. Her lips wore a maniac's laugh and her troubled brow made her look like mask of a tortured murder frozen on {* She sank at last into & hideous calm, with her strained and stiffened hands pointing weirdly up. She was like marble, She did not move a halr's breadth during the next two hours. Over to the left a young man leaped to his teet with a scream: “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus. The great negress caught him in her arms as he fell and laid him down, then leaped up and down, shrieking Oh, Jesus, come, Come, God' Around her a dozen women took up her ory. Most of them had no voices. Thelr horritying screams had become hoarse hisses yet still they strove. Scores of volces were mixed in the pandemonium of prayer. All order was lost. Three of the preachers now stood shouting before the mourners bench, two were in the aisles. One came down the aisle toward with the braided hair. As b prayed. Foam was on his lips, but his eyes were cool and calculating; they betrayed him As he came he fixed his gaze upon a woman seated near the prostrate girl, and with a horrible outery the vietim leaped into the ir and stiffened as if smitten with epilepsy fell agalnst some seared boys, who let her fall, etriking her head against the seats She, too, rolled down upon th w. They looked like sisters. They had round, pretty but childish faces. Mflton and the rest retreated. They smiled no more; they were horror stricken, Squads of workers now moved down alsles; in one they surrounded two people, a tall, fair girl and a young man. Why, it's Grace!' exclaimed Ma Ben turned quickl; “Where?" They pointed her out “She can't get away, let them—"" Ben pushed face was set perate.

The power of the preacher “Let me go,” she cried, herself loose. “You are going to hell. you do not—" With one thrust Ben clearcd her tormentor from her arm. For one moment the word- less young man looked into her eyes; then sho staggered toward him. He faced the preacher. “You keep your hands off her or I'll smash your face,”” he said. In the tumult his words were lost, but the look on his face was enough. The exhorter f2ll away Their retreat was unnoted in the tumult At the door they looked back for an instant at the demoniacal scene. At the mourners' bench were six victims in all stages of induced catalepsy, one man with head flung back, one with hands pointing. fixed in furious appeal. Another with bowed head was being worked upon by another brother of hypnotic spells. He struck with downward, positive gestures on either side of the victim's head Over another the megre towered screaming with panther-like ferocity ““Git under de blood!

On her face was the grin of a wildeat Out under the cool, lofty oaks the outery was more inexpressibly hellish, because over head the wind rustied the swast green leaves crickets were chirping and the scent of flow cring fields of buckwheat was In the air. Grace grew calmer, but she clung with strange weakness to her lover. She felt he had saved her from something, she did not know what,” but it was something terrifying to look back upon. Conrad was helpless. Ben bundled him into the carryall and took his place with Grace. The horse and carrlage b:longed to Grace's father, anyhow, but Ben id not stop to argue. He would have done the same had they belonged to Conrad himself. On the long ride home Grace lay within his right arm and the young man's tongue was unchained. He talked, and his spirit grew tender and manly and husbandlike, as he told his plans and his hopes. Hell was very far away and heaven was very near. (The End. ‘“The Neville Affair,” by Frank H.

This actlon was taken as a result of a complaint filed by the Southern Pacific com- pany. The company also seeks to have the commissioners enjoined from carrylng into effect a resolution by which it is proposed to make an average reduction of 25.per cent in all the rates of the road, to take effect December 1, 18! The complaint alleges that two of the com- missioners, La Rue and Stanton, were bound by ante-cléction pledges to reduce rates, and further, that La Rue fs a large land owner and shipper of grain, and therefore not a fit person to act in matters affecting wheat rates. It is recited that If the reduced rate goes into effect ‘hat the raflroad will loso $1,600,000 annually aud will be serfously rippled, The character of the complaint as a wholo and the fact that the federal courts have been requested to lgnore the raliroad com- missioners Indicate that Mr. Huntington in- tends to make the same fight hera that he aid sever ars ago against tho Texas railroad commissloners. The commissioners were enjoined by United States District Judge McCormick at Galveston and his decroe was sustained by the United States supreme court, Mr. Huntington and Attorney Herrln express the opinion that there s considerable similarity between the Texas case and tho California cose and say they expect to win the case because of its similarity. NOT PREPARED TO TALK. ver Mink Not in a Position to Discuss Vanderbilt Plans, Receiver Oliver W. Mink of the Union Pa- cific Is still in the city, attending tho hear- ing of the application for the dlvision of the Oregon Short Line earnings among the branch lines. The hearing is in progress be- fore Master in Chancery Cornish. The Unlon Pacific recelvers are charged with havivg In their possession $2,000,000 of Oregon Short Line earnings. The delay in apportioning thesa earnings among the lines tributary to the system has prevented the payment of In- terest on Oregon Short Line securities. Mr. Mink is supposed to be more famillar with the plans for the reorganization of the Union Pacific than any other of the recelv. ers, as he Is in closer touch with the big men of the east who have the matter In charge. Ha was shown the item in The Bee to the effect that the Vanderbilts had designs upon the Unfon Pacific system and planned to make it a part of the Chicago & North- western, to fulfill the Vanderbilt dream of a trunk line from ocean to ocean. Mr. Mink stated _that he was not In a position to dis, cuss the matter more fully than had been already covered by his interviews in the As- sociated press. He sald he had not had a conference with the reorganization com- mittee. Neither had President Clark, and while many plans had been submitted to the committee, he really had no definite idea as to what recommendations the committee would make. , Oct. 15.—A special to the Star from Fort Scott, Kan., says: Colonel T.
