EVANGELIST IX THE WEST.
George I.. Field, freight claim clerk
of the Delaware, l.ackuwunna and
Western Hallroad company In this city,
has received a Very ititeiesting letter
from Rev. Lewis Shellliorii. who Is now
laboring in W Inslow, Arizona. Sir.
Shellhorn will be remembered by
Scrantotilans as the evangelist who was
associated with Hev. Mr. Moore and
conducted gospel meetings In a tent at
Green Hidge, and at the Archbnld and
Pyne mines last fall. The lett-r was
written Feb. M and among other things
says:
"As I promised to write you after T
arrived in Arizona 1 will do It before 1
am killed. 1 began meetings here last
.Monday evening with a full house, sev
en cuine to the ultar lust night and
there has been eighteen conversions so
far, ten seeking at the ultar. The devil
is ilolnu; his best out here. The third
day 1 was here 1 received a red letter
from the devil stating that If 1 did
not leave the town inside of twenty
four hours I would go out a.dead man.
The twenty-four hours were up yes
terday and I am here yet. although
1 was shot tit three times, twice com
ing from the church ami once while
In my room, the last shot passing only
two feet above my head, went through
three walls. They shot to kill no
doubt. 1 am guarded neatly all the
time bv two or three ollicers while in
church, and ut my stopping place. The
Godless people here nave sworn Glut
thev will not eat a mouthful of food
while 1 am here. I told them the night
before last 1 was afraid some of them
would get hungry liefore I left us 1
was going to remain two weeks yet.
Oh, how 1 wish I had the money to
meet expenses out lu re. I would preach
the. true gospel to these heathens und
let them know that the Son of Alan
would soon be here to jtnlKe them. The
people here tire very poor. Those who
are willing to j'ive have nothing to
give. When 1 arrived I hud only
thirty-live cents in my pocket end I
don't know how 1 will get out of here.
1 intend to trust ill God. If you know
of any one In Scruntuii who wants to
put his money In a place where It will
receive the largest Interest In this life
and In the life to come, tell them to
send some out here for this work. I
have put all I have In, and myself
thrown In. I am now about to go down
In the worst part of the town with the
minister and two otllcers to help clean
out two more bad houses. We have
succeeded 111 clenllillir out three places
si ltd the people who conducted two of
them have opened their houses for one
half hour prayer meet lugs before
preaching. I go to Flaysloff next to be
gin there Slate h 1."
Anyone wishing tr lencnuriiR'e Sir.
Shellhorn In the unselfish work of soul
saving under the opposition and iiillu
ence he states iii his letter, can leave

AN ANNOYING I'll LDICAMKNT
It Was Only the Civil Service Kutcs That
Saved the Hoy from a Licking.
From the Chicago Post.
The iiiiliceinun was leaning ugalnst a
fence, viciously pounding the boards
with Ills club.
"What's troubling you?" asked the
proprietor of the corner grocery, as he
stepped In front of him.
The policeman seemed pleased nt the
sight or a friend, but he hesitated n mo
ment before replying to the question.
"Say." he suid at last, "do you know
anything about this here civil service
businesss'.'"
"Sure." replied the grocer. "What b
you Miit to know?"
"Well,", explained the policeman,
"there's a lad hangs around this beat
thut keeps talkin' back to me an' snssin'
me all the time. Is there anything I
can li to him'."'
"Just for talking to you?"
"Yes. For telling me to go soak my
head an' get In out of the wet an' calliii'
me names an' .iloin' other things that
are annoyln'."
"No: you can't do anything to Mm
unless he Interferes with you ill the dis
charge of your duty."
"If I hit hint with my club lie could
have me upon charges, couldn't he?"
"Yes."
"If 1 gave him a swift kick he might
get my star?"
"No doubt about It."
'That's the-way I ligured It out, hut
I wasn't sure. Now. 1 want to know if
there's any provisions In this civil ser
vice law for a man reslging for live
minutes an' then Renin' his Job back?"
"I never heard of any."
"If he quits he's got to stay iult?"
"That's It."
"Well. It don't seem quite fair." said
the policeman, after a pause, "but if
It's the law 1 s'pnse I've got to stick
to it. This here lad thut's botherln' me,
though, ought to go down to the otllce
of the men thut's tonkin' after the law
an' give them a vote of thanks. It's
a regular life Insurance pulley for klu
an' no premiums to pay on it."
