"Did yon say Fust church t I know

was a laugh, for tho speaker was a sa
loon keeper.
"T'row out de life line 'cross do dark

singing in such an unconscious imita
tion of a local traveling singer's nasal
tone that roars of laughter and jeers of
approval rose around him. Tho people
in the tent turned in the direction of

"Put him out!" "Give the Fust church

Henry Maxwell stood up, and a great
wave of actual terror went over him.
This waa not like preaching to the well
dressed, respectable, good mannered
people on the boulevard He began to
speak, but the confusion increased.
Gray went down into the crowd, but
did not seem able to qnlet it. Henry
Maxwell raised his arm and his voice.
The crowd in the tent began to pay
some attention, bnt the noise on the
outside increased. In a few minutes the
audience was beyond Max well's control.
He turned to Rachel with a aad smile
"Sing something, Miss Winslow.
They will listen to you," he said and
then sat down and put his face in his
hands.
It waa Rachel's opportunity, and she
waa folly eqnal to it Virginia waa at
the organ, and Rachel asked her to play

woman ? Henry Maxwell as he raised
his head and saw the transformed mob
had a glimpse of something that Jesus
would probably do with a voice like
Rachel Winslow's. Jusper ChaBe sat
with his eyes on the singer, and his
greatest longing as an ambitious author
was swallowed up in the thought of
what Rachel Winslow's love might
some time mean to him. And over in
the shadow outside stood the last person
any one might have expected to see at
a gospel tent service, Rollin Page, who,
jostled on every aide by rough men and
women, who stared at the swell in the
fine clothes, seemed careless of his sur
roundings and at the same time evi
dently swayed by the power that Rachel
possessed. He had just come over from

to him during his ten years in the First
church but a vague, dangerous, dirty,
troublesome factor in society, outside
of the church and his reach ; an element
that caused him occasionally an un
pleasant feeling of conscience ; a factor
in Raymond that waa talked about at
associations as the "masses" in papers
written by the brethren in attempts to
show why the "masses f were not being
reached. But tonight as he faced the
"masses" he asked himself whether,

Henry Maxwell was talking to him

membered that he had always voted for
license, and so hud nearly all of his
church members. What won hi Jesus
do? Could ho answer that question 1

he preach and act ? Suppose It was not

He went up into his study the next
morning with thot question only partly
answered. He thought of it all day. He
was still thinking of it and reaching
certain real conclusions when The
Evening News came. His wife brought
it up and sat down a few minutes while
he read it to hor.
The Evening News was at present
the most sensutlonal paper in Raymond
That is to say, it was being lited in
such a remarkable fashion that its sub
scribers had never been so excitisl over
a newspaper before. First they had no-
need the absence of tho prizefight, and
gradually it began to dawn uixin them
that Tho News no longer printed ac
counts of crime with detailed descrip- j
tions or scandals in private life. Then
thev noticed that tho advertisements of
liquor and tobacco were being dropped,
together with certain other advertise
ments of a questionable character. The
discontinuance of tho Sunday paper
caused the greatest comment of all, and
now the character of the editorials was
creating tho greatest excitement A
quotation from tho Monday paper of
this week will show what Edward Nor
man was doing to keep his promise
Tho editorial was hoadod:
"THE MORAL SID2C OF POLITICAX. QTJES-
Bon
"The editor of Tho News has always
advocated the principles of the groat
political party at present in power and
has therefore discussed all political
questions from a standpoint of expedi
ency or of belief in the party as opposed
to other organisations. Hereaftor, to
be perfectly honest with all our read
ers, the editor will present and discuss
political ysvsttons froai the standpoint
of right tiA wrong. In other words,
the first question will not be, 'Is it in
the interest of our party ?' or 'Ia it ac
cording to the principles laid down by
the party ?' bnt the question first asked
will be, 'Is this measure in accordance
with the spirit and teachings of Jesus
as the author of the greatest standard
of life known to men?' That is, to be
perfectly plain, the moral side of every
political question will be considered, its
most important side, and the ground

and it la now for them to take action
upon it
"The News wishes to express itself
on this action of Mr. Powers. In the
first place, he has nothing to gain by
it He has lost a valuable place volun
tarily when by keeping silent he might
have retained it In the second place.
we belii-ve his action ought to receive
the approval of all thoughtful, houost
citizens who believe in seeing law
obeyed and lawbreakers brought to jus
tice. In a case like this, where evidence
against a railroad company is generally
. understood to tie almost impossible t
obtain, it is the general belief that tho
officers of the road are often In posses
sion of criminating facts, but do not
consider it to bo any of their business
, to inform tho authorities that tho law

"The entire resnlt of this evasion of
j responsibility on tho part of those who
are riwiponsihlo Is demoralizing to every
young man connected with tho road
Tho iKlitor of The News rii-alls tho
statement made by a prominent rail
road official in this city a little while
ago that nearly every clerk in a certain
department of tho road who understood
how large sums of money were made by
shrewd violations of the interstate com
merce law was ready to admiro the
I shrewdness with which it was done and
declared that they would all do tho
same thing if they wore high enongh in
railroud circles to attempt it This was
actually said in one of the general of
fices of a great western railroad, to tho
author's knowledge.
"It is not necessary to say that such
a condition of business is destructive
to all the nobler and higher standards
of conduct, and no young man can live
in such an atmosphere of nnpnnishtd
dishonesty and lawlessness without
wrecking bis character.

can do. He has rendered brave and use

Then he answered slowly:
"Yes; I think be would At any rate,
Powers has decided su, and each one of
ns who made the promise understands
that he is not deciding Jesus' conduct
for any one else, only fur himself."
"How alxuit his family 1 How will

"Very hard. I have no doubt That

They will not understand his motive."
Henry Maxwell went out and walked
over to the ue.xt block, where the mi
perihtendeat lived. To his relief. Pow
ers himself cane to the door.
The two men slnaik hands silently.
They inetuntly understood each other
without words. There had never la'en
such a bond of auiou between the min
ister and his parishioner.
"What aru you going to dot" Henry
Maxwell asked after they had talked
over the facts in the case and considered
them well
"You mean another position T I have
no plana yet I can go back to my old
work as a telegraph operator. My fam
ily will not suffer except in a social
way. "
Alexander Powers stHike calmly, if
sadly. Henry Maxwell did not need to
ask him how his wife and daughter
feJt He knew will enough that the su
perintendent had sufTcnd deepest at
that iK'int.
"There is one matter I wish you
would see to," said Powers after
awhile, "and Unit is the work begun at
the sliojis. So far as I know, tho com
pany will not object to that going right
on. It is one ot the contradictli ms of
the railroad world that the Y. M. C A

couraged by tho roads, while all the
time the most nnCnriatian ami lawless

Tea," replied Henry MaxwelL He
staid a little longer. Before ho went
away ho and the suierintendent had a
prayer together, and they parted with
that silent hand grasp that seemed to
them like a new token of their Chris
tian discipleship and fellowship.
Tho pastor of tho First church went

to determine the relations that exist be
tween tho individual citizen and his
fixed duty to the public. In this case
there is no doubt in our mind that the
step which Mr. Powers has taken com
mends itself to every man who believes
in law and its enforcement There are
times when the individual must act for
the people in ways that will mean sac
rifice and loss to him of tho gravest
character. Mr. Powers will be misun
derstood and misrepresented, but there
is no question that his course will be
approved by every citisen who wishes
to see the greatest corporations as well
as the weakest individual subject to the
tame law. Mr. Powers has done all that
a loyal, patriotic citisen could do. II
how remains for the commission to act
upon his evidence, which, we under
stand, is overwhelming proof of the
lawlessness of the L, and T. Let the
law be enforced, do matter who the
persona may be who have been guilty. "
Henry Maxwell finished reading and
dropped the paper.
"I must go and aee Powers. This ia
the result of his promise."
He rose, and as he waa going out his
wife said:
"Do you think, Henry, that Jesus
would lwvedonejhatr'
growing upon him that the pledge to
do as Jesus would was working out a
revolution in his parish and throughout
the city. Every day added to the serious
results of olsdience to that pledge.
Henry Maxwell did not pretend to see
the end He was, in fact, only now at
the very beginning of events that were
destined to change tho history of hun
dreds of families, not only in Raymond,
but throughout the entire country. As
he thought of Edward Norman and
Rachel and Mr. Powers and of the re
sults that had already come from their
actions he could not help a feeling of
intense interest in tho probable effect if
all the persons in the First church who
had made the pledge faithfully kept it
Would they all keep it, or would somo
of them turn back when the cross be
came too heavy ?
He was asking this question the next
morning as he sat in his study when
the president of the Endeavor society
called to see him.
"I suppose I ought not to trouble you
with my case," said young Morris,
coming at once to his errand, "but I
thought, Mr. Maxwell, that you might
adrife me a little."
