TRI THE CLERICOMOTOR., There was trouble in the Byesville | orthodox church. Old Parson Thorne, who for the last forty years had been a faithful shepherd to his flock, no longer | occupied the pulpit. Byesville was a struggling little ham- | let when the good man first came there, and he had seen it grow to a thriving, | busting town. With this material change there had gradually come a cor- responding spiritual alteration In the minds of the church goers, and they | began to find the parson’s simple expo- | sitions of the divine truths a trifle too | quiet and slow for the progressive spirit which animated them. As to the par- son’s personal worth and Christian hu- mility there was no question, but his | theology was not abreast of the times. At first the murmers of discontent were heard from only a few, but the feeling | seemed to be contagious, and as time | wore on it grew stronger, until there | could be only one possible climax—the supplanting of the present pastor hy a younger and more advanced clergyman. The first of these steps had been already | taken: Good old Parson Thorne had preached his farewell sermon, and the pulpit was vacant. The second move- ment. however, was found to be far less easy of accomplishment. At last, fail- | ing to secure the wished for prize through ordinary channels, committee on selection, Deacon’s Slim son and Gral resolved upon a bold move. They serted an ingeniously worded advertisement in a prominent New York religious journal and await- ed the result. Their patience was not put to a severe tess, On the tenth day following advertisement fron the New York is train into the Byesville moments later was the His baggage, a unk of unusual sizes, the the 115 3} 00, $% Yea Lae rs t ¥y ‘ ig 49 soon followed hi He registered as “John Rogers,” and | after a short conversation with the clerk. which resulted in the sending of the oy on a mysterious errand, was shown to room 16, whither his trunk pr A subdued noise of hammering was heard from the stran- ger’s apartment for a brif period, and then all was still.

My friend is there. Excuse | me gentlemen.’’ He dashed behind the | curtain. A low, clicking noise was | heard for a moment, and then the dra- | ry was suddenly drawn aside. ! An exclamation of surprise broke | from the three deacons, They saw an | improvised reading desk at the end of the apartment, behind which, in a thoughtful attitude, sat a distinguished | looking man. i Gientleman,” briskly cried Rogers, | unconsciously assuming the air of a | truveling showman, “1 have the distin | guished pleasure of introducing to you t the Rev.
