', For he prtuclied his first sermon there in n cunt of tar anil feathers! j ft came iibout in this way. And 1 j may ndd liore that Martin.- that was j my classmate's name af terwurd lie- I atnc one ol the most ioiuiar and nxwt respected mini.itors in the wet. Moreover, he was made a doctor of divinity and a hishop, honors to which few men nttrin there, under tho itinerant system, unless pos imkiI of sterling diarncur. The events of my story occurred 27 yenrs tC", when Main in was not ijnite jcarg of npe. At thnt time lie lacked a full t rin vt Ms ordination, in the usual eytirse, but the bishop nnd professors fot rvrr the difficulty, ns is sometimes the case, on the ground of expedicn ry. Marvin, himself the urn of nn itinerant minister, hnd been earnestly ashed to iro to Morning- Dew by ft venerable itinerant, who had been ln-loring- hard to improve the miners there nnd nt Sink-or-Swim, another ctnhrvo "city" on the other side of the "butte," three or four miles dis tant. "Like Rire like son," the veteran preaeher wrote. "1 knew your fa ther well. He was nn earnest, fear less soul, nnd I hear thnt you are like him. If so, the Lord needs you here, and needs yon prcntly." Marvin rend this appeal, consulted with his instructors, nnd wrote to say that, God willinpr, he would prench in Morning Pew on the fol lowing Sunday, five days Inter. lie set off on the following day, and reached Sink-or-SwIni late on Saturday nfternoon. The old minis ter, Mr. Hendricks, received him with enthusiasm, nnd nfter supper sat down to tell him the kind of nn audi ence to which he would have to preach on the next tiny. "fly the wny." he added, "you will nave to prench in n saloon. They kave no meeting-house yet." The evening wan bright, mid before Tetiring Marvin went out for a walk through Sink-or-Swim, to think over lit sermon and to rearrange some points In It, in order to meet sugges tions made by his venerable friend and mentor. There was nearly a full moon, and be) proceeded nlong the road lead ing to Morning Dew. 1'resently he met a man on horseback, riding at a mad gallop; nnd he had gone on for no more than half a mile when the same man . passed him, riding back toward Morning Dew, accompanied by eight or ten others, apparently recruited at Sink-or-Swim. They were in furious haste; and ns Marvin trolled on he begnn to hear distant shouts, and soon after saw the gleum of a Are in the direction of the scene of his prospective pastorate. Curiosity led him to hasten that wny, and ns he drew near he found that the whole "city" was astir. The fire, however, proved but a bonfire In the street, made of the debris of loniei rude dwelling which the mob nad demolished. Over the embers the energetic citizens were heating a ket tle, containing a dark liquid which diffused the odor of tar. The intent of tie crowd woa soon disclosed. "Haul him out here!" Rhouted n burly follow, who appeared to be the ninster of ceremonies; nnd immediately a trembling, imploring wretch, who hud lost most of hia clothes, waa dragged forth into the street. "Who's got a fenthrr pillow?'' cried a hoarse voice. "Fetcli it out and rip i open!" These picturesque exclamations made the rmrpm-e of the proceedings . to annnreiit thnt Marvin, in his ehar- ctcr of moral guardian to the place, 'ielt cnllcd upon to say something, lie, epoke from imprlse. There; was lit tle tlmo for reflection. Tlio first Intlleful of hot tar was nl ready lining applied to the luckless cllni. "For common decency's u;il;e. don't do thaj,! cKcMimed the young i-lct-' fjiuaa, iHiKhlnjj resolutely forward. ' i.'t tre.'it, n fcllow-tnan In that ( , t'iig wjiy ! It i" inhuman!'

"liive him tin introduction to Morn ing Pew! tllve him a doi e out of tl e same 1ml tie!" I'.cfor.' my impulsive classmate hnd time even !o te ilie Ids ilali;,-er or to mal.V himself known, a doen rough fellows tore olT his outer clothing ntiil splashed him from chin to heels with tin overwnrm tar. Ot hers show ered feathers on him with equal ce lerity. Within n minute from the time my classmate hud opened hia mouth in protest he was tarred nnd feathered! l.'ciliing that rem; n ( 'ance r vain, he shut hln mouth resolutely and ynid not n word. Meanwhile Mr.rv'n's unhappy com pnnioii in misfortune had been served w.ith nn eoiuillv tove-flt tov- nit The fin erst. 'iff in front of a saloon wat ' pulled down for n pole. The'r tor mentors placed both nifTerers routrh ly nitride it; nnd in less than five minutes nfter M;iriu hnd entered Morning Dew, pondering his sermon for the morrow, he was riding out of It on n rail, in n coat of tar nnd feathers, at a very unpleasant rate of speed, 'riving ns a traveling com panion a gentleman of doubtful tin teccdmts whom he had never met be'orn. A mile down the road toward Sink-or-S'uim the unhnpoy pair were dis-mount'-d unceremoniously, nnd left with a ti ord' r to "git." hi sorry plight Marvin proceeded to Mr. Hendricks' house and knocked nt the door. "I have met some of my parishion ers." he explained, when the old ii ii isfi r appeared to let him in. "and they Tune presented me with a new ! t.ult. of clothes." M Hendricks was dumfounded nt ; first, but when Marvin related the eir j cuius tanccs he smiled grimly. "Keep your grit!" he exclaimed, at i last. "I know these folks. Don't try j to get a feather of that off. 111 give you a r.undle or hay to sleep on; tiuil in. the morning I'll go up there with you, r.nd you'll preach ut Morning Pew, nc co; :Meg to promise, in I he cent they've L-iw'ii you. They can't complain of thnt!"' .Marvin, who was not lacking in ret- i olution. saw w itji approval the point j that was to lie mtiile. itiit he passed anj thing hut a comfortable night. Aftr breakfast he accompanied Mr. Hendricks on foot to Morning Dew. The latter had announced the new min ister nnd made the arrangements for his sermon several days before. A tmnll platform had been made nt the rear end of the vacant saloon, and two chi.irs and a table placed on it. Marvin had put on a long waterproof coat which, when buttoned to his chin, effectually concealed the tar and feathers. He entered the saloon with Mr. Hendricks, and they wit down on the platform. A hand-bell was then rung, and immediately the place filled w ith miners and other citizen. It waa a typical frontier crowd. Mr. Hen dricks, who was well known to them all, began the serviees in the xisunl manner and then introduced the new minister. "I take pleasure in presenting him to you," he continued, "because 1 know that- he is the right man to come here. Itefore beginning his discourse, how ever," the old minister added, grimly, "he desires me to npologi.e for the coat in which he Is obliged toappear. While coming into the plnce last evening he fell in w ith some of the citizens here, who took his clothes away from him and dressed him in another suit which h has not yet hud time to take off. Hut he would not allow a thing of that kind to prevent him from keeping his word to preach here, aa I promised you." Thereupon- Marvin took off his wa terproof and advancing to the table entered upon his sermon, which was from tlTe text: "I come not to call the righteous but tinners to repentance." When he first arose there was a pro digious sensation in the audience. The miuert exchanged strange glances with each other. Most of them had been present on the previous evening. It daw tied on hem immediately that they had tarred and feuthered their new minister by mistake! They had time to think it over during the sermon; and when Marvin finished the rough fellows hurriedly chose two committees of five each to wait on him not to talk, but to uct. The spokes man of the first committee invited him to accompany them to u snitill smeller. It would appear that in Morning Dew thev had hud experience in removing coats of tnr.nnd feathers, as well us in j bestowing them. The ten pernture in the smelter wns raised to about -uo degrees Fahren heit. Marvin was then urged to enter it, along with two of the committee, who, at that high temperature, suc ceeded in removing not only the feathers, but most of the tar. The second committee, meanwhile, hud not been idle. The six best suits of clothes in Morning Hew had been col lected; and when Marvin emerged from the hands of the first committee, tl,e second appeared and begged him to stlei t from the garments such a& best suited him. Still a third committee now made Its appearance and tendered him a hearty apol.-yy 'for the "mistake" that hnd oc curred. Marvin labored nt Morning Pew und Siiik-oi-Si)i f"r three years there afteruntil, in tho Ii ogretsi-f 11. e his tory of mining in Montana, both "lil ies" were nbai.doiieil r.ud cias.fcd to ex ist.

Illlnot Grange Ideiui.. We In Illinois confine the member ship of our granges very closely to farmers. Wo admit schoolteachers when they teach In the country and are closely connected with couutry life, but we have never been In the habit of tnklug in members who are not eli gible In the strictest construction of the term. I notice a grent deal of difference lu that matter in tho different states where the national grange holds Its ses sions. In New Euglund especially there are many admitted to member ship who are In business aud profes sional life nud not strictly farmers. This helps to make the national meet ings Interesting, as In each pluce we go we find a different variety of mem bers and in consequence a variety In the work that is done. In one section of the country one department of work Is made prominent and another In some other state. This Is, of course, aside from the great gen eral plan of the work of tho Order. Mrs. Martha Wilson. The Granite aa an Ed orator. The yearbook of the department of agriculture speaks of the grange as a factor In agricultural education as fol lows: The second half of the nineteenth century has witnessed a great awak ening of tho farmers of this country to their educational needs and opportuni ties. This has led to tho broadening of the work and influence of the general agencies for their education. The state and local societies have been supple mented by great national organizations such as the Patrons of Husbandry, which, besides doing a great deal for the promotion of their general welfare, have done much to quicken the desire of multitudes of fanners for definite education In matters relating to their art. The Opportunity Onra. Stato Master Ladd of Massachusetts said in his annual address that "at no time in our history has tuero been greater need of farmers organizing. The day of successes by old methods has passed. New conditions and com binations confront us on every hand, better methods and counter organiza tions are our only hope. If we succeed, It must be by our own efforts, and the grange has glveu us the opportunity." Vermont added 1,000 new members the past jfiir, Oregon 1.500, New York 0,000, Michigan 0,000, Massachusetts 1,000 nnd Maine .",000. These are the largest In Increase. The national grango will probably meet lnvSt. Louis at the world's fair lu 100 1. In lltOS It will convene In New York state.

The (iettnnn Oriental society ha been most successful in its explora tions at Abu-Sir in Egypt, and most in tti'tistitig "finds" were distributed among the 1'erlin museums during the in on tn of October. One of the most im portant discoveries was a perfectly preserved mummy of .Jen Km Jechvet, the high priest of the temple, who died about U.uuO yenrs before Christ. The body was found in n family vault, which nlso contained the remains of his priest nnd reader und their wives. Only thiee tombs of such nn age have been found in good preservation, during the last century, and this is the first time tlutt the contents have been brought safely to Europe. Jen lay in his co Ili n, enveloped in a brown linen shroud, just as lie had been placed there 4,000 years ago. In nccorilnnce with the fashion of the time, he has small side whiskers, nnd a longer tuft on his chin, and his eyes are made to nppear unnaturally long by means of the careful npplical iou of rouge, The wig, which is large nnd parted down the middle, has a bluish tint verging on green, and must originally have been the color of lapis lazuli, in imita tion of tiie hair worn by Egyptian gods. The mummy was lying slightly on '.lie left side, snys the London Anti qunry, ns Egyptians sleep to-day, und the head rested on n support such as is still in use In the Sudan.

Clever I in I In In n of Teeth, Collar anil Shoe llnNonn 1'ut t p (or the Joker. "The trick cigar has its counterpart in confectionery," said a candy man ufacturer the other day, according to the New York Times. "The cnllow youth who delights in giving explosive cigars to his men friends demands something similar for the candy-con-suniing sex, and we have to meet the demand. "The possibilities of a crenm choco late or a piece of nougat are limited, but we have a few contrivances. We make of a very hard candy an imita tion of a tooth with a gold crown, nnd hide It in a crenm chocolate. You can Imagine the rest a party of wom en munching candy, one of them dis covering something hard, and, finding a gold-crowned tooth loose in her mouth! "Similarly we imitate a bone collar button in a hard white candy, hide a candy shoe button In a piece of nougat. put a bit of cork in a caramel, or fill a candied cherry with red pepper. So long as the sanitary experts don't weed out these alleged jokers the candy man has to put up these trick candies for them." WAS AN AMBITIOUS MAN.

When the big 16-inch gun was towed to Sandy Hook the great floating der rick Monarch and the lighter Captain Tom carried the weight, while tha powerful wrecking steamer, I. J. Mer ritt, did the pulling. The the government dock the Mer ritt dropped behind the other vessels and pushed them in against the pier, nt the end of which an insignificant lit tle pile driver was tied up. The huga Monarch swung close to the pile driver, and a man boarded the lntter, fearing the pile driver wns In danger of be ing crushed, and with no idea of the eternal fitness of things, reached out and tried to push the derrick, float, gun and steamer aH away at the same time. It was like a fly trying to kick down a mountain. Out of the pilot house of the Mer- ritt the captain stuck his head, saya the New York Mail and Express, and, in a vioce so tremendous that it shat tered the atmosphere, roared at tha man on the pile driver: "Don't bother. We'll make a line fast to keep the derrick there. You can't hold it!" Waate of Electricity. Prof. Mason, of the Smithsonian in stitution, says that the most needed achievement of 1903 is the discovery of a satisfactory method of economizing electricity. Some day, he says, in the not distant future, the rivers will make all the electricity we want. We shall harness the streams and they will heat every house, run every wheel and light every lamp.
