Jim Greyson’s Lucky Find
The Colorado Miner-and the
Salvation army
,IT WAS a cold winter evening in a
lively town which had sprung and
grown into the proportionsof a proud
young city, just- under the shadow of
the Rockies. Electric lights flared
blue. and pale against the dark and
rugged background of foothills, while
down through the canyons whispered
the evening wind, in that low threat-
ening voice which is often the pre-
cursor of a blow. It. was mild as yet,
though, and the streets were thronged
with people. All the shop windows
were ablaze with Christmas cheer, and
merry groups were gathered hereand
there in front of them, discussing the
various decorations, which, lit up with
incandescent, lights, made the interior
of jewelry, drug and novelty stores
glitter like fairy palaces.
In the window of a fine shoe shop on
Broad street was displayed a snowy
landscape, with the old-time brick
chimney and redoubtuble Santa Claus
gusit disappearing. with his pack on.
ack, down its capacious flue. Gazing
at this was a knot of miners whohad
come in from the mountains to pass
xthe gay holiday week, and “have a
lark,” There were a half-dozen or more
‘of them, all good—looking young fe-l-'
lows, showing signs of the recent. re-
sults of bath and barber, and with that
unmistakable air about them which, at
once, to an accustomed eye marks the
“men of the mountains.”
Jim Greyson, the tallest of the
group, presently spoke in a hushed
voice, breaking a silence which evident;
ly had been filled with thoughts of
long ago and the New England fire
sides of their fathers; for three, at
least, of the “boys” had hailed from
“the east” years ago.
Sam Hunt, Jim’s chum, said: “Not.
quite; the old folks don’t, show up.”
His voice was a trifle husky. He didn’t
want. the boys to notice it. “Let’s go
on up the street,” he continued.
“VVhat’s that music? I hear a drum.”
“The Salvation Army!” said Ned
Riley. “Funny, ain‘t it? How they
keep up their religion infthe midst of
all this fun! Let’s go and see them—
canwe? Are they out. of doors?"
“Yes,” said Jim, “I see where they
are; right on the corner of the big
dancing hall. 5LCome on! I’ve heard so
much about that Salvation Army, but
never have happened to seeany of their
performance-3.." ,
All this time the boyshad been draw—
ing nearer to the crowd on the cor-
ner of Broad and Tenth streets. The
music sounded a little less queer and a
little more musical on approach. It.
gradually grew apparent that. there
were voices and a tune, as well as the
monotonous rub-dub of the big bass
drum, together with an indescribably
festive jingle. The actors were three
young women and one man—the drum-
mer. The women, standing at equal
distances apart. formed a. half-circle.
(The man stood directly in front of
5thcm. The audience was not large—20
Ior 30 perhaps. and all were men.
iSte-pping among them. just as our boys-
appcared on the scene. it seemed to me
one of the mostpeculiar situations that
'_I had ever accidentally come upon.
‘The .three solemn-looking young wom-
,en in dark blue uniform an'd large
coal—bod shaped bonnets; music'—
such a strange union of~p|e and rev-
elryi One young woman played a
tambourine, and the jolly jingle of a
row of little bells, together with the
military roll of the big drum, accom-
panied the words:
0, yes, there’s salvation for you,
. 0, yes. there's salvation for me;
' Salvation for all who on Jesus will call, .
Accept of It now, and be tree.
.. No woman in all the passing throng
stopped to listen. Indeed, the crowd of
Christmas purchasers seemed to hurry
past that dimly-lighted street corner,
for the army detachment had modestly
stationed itself just round the corner
of Tenth, and out of the way of busy
Broad street.
I studied the faces of the men in the
group. Not a ghost. ofpp'ything like
ivity was visible. With grave, honest
countenancethey stood, giving the
most devout attention, while one of the
women exhorted: “Come, come to-
night. and accept your Saviour, and His
pardon for your sins! ” Shetalked rap-
idly and earnestly, and they listened
respectfully, although it struck me
that on none of the faces could I dis-
cern any signs of interested-feeling.
That did not surprise me. Colorado
miners are not notably religious; but
they are notably respectful, even rev-
erential in their attitude toward good
women. ,I have heard .an old miner
affirm that if' he were obligedtO leave
his young sister in the world, poor and
unprotected, he would trust her sooner
than anywhere else on earth among
the gold and silver miners .in the heart
of the Rockies.
All this time while I was Icogitnting
upon the ways and doings of this
strange “Army of the Lord;”——.of their
strongholds in all countries, their sac-
rifices, courage, endurance, faith, their
risk of insults in saloons and tene-
ments, risk to health in storms and
'night air—wondering if they never
faltered and longed to return .to lives‘
of ease; if they never felt their faith
weaken in the face of multitudes who
'hold such different belief—I had for-
gotten to notice “our boys;”
Glancing now to see if they were
still listening I found that only Jim?"
and Sam remained, still listening
intently as songs and exhortations al-
ternated; and that the eyes «of the~
former were riveted upon the fair
young face of the woman who played
the tambourine. At every motion of
her arms, as they shook the instru-
ment, he gazed; at every tone of her
voice, when she sang, he listened;
gazed and listened; listened and gazed,
:as might. the hunter whose soul was
set upon the game which be yet feared
,to frighten by any act of indiscret'ion
beyond his reach. ,
Now it was her turn to talk. She
spoke rapidly, in a voice clear but not
loud, never raising her eyes toward the
faces of her listeners, but earnestly en-
treating them to “repent and believe.”
Still did Jim Greyson’s gaze devour her.
His whole soul,see-med to be going out
in one exhaustive effort to catch her
eye.
What did it mean? I had never
known Jim to flirt. It wasn’t his way.
Jim had sprees, when he could :be as
wild as his own untamed mustang, and
as regardless of decorum with those
who were like-minded of either sex, but
this purse-faced preacherl Surely, not
that! ‘
Just. then she finished speaking, and
there was a. movement as if the exer»
cises were about to break up. Jim, with
a face strained now to the very climax
of desperation. leaned toward the
young speaker, and in a. half-whisper,
hoarse and tense with emotion and
dread of mistake, gasped: “Nell!”
“NELLY" HE GASPED.
Quick as thought the small head in
the large bonnet was turned in the di-
rection of the startling sound; the blue
eyes, raised, for the first time, met Jim’s
eager gray ones, in bewildered. surprise,
then gradually the voice and eyes of
Jim Greyson took formandrpl-ace in the
woman’s memory. A lightning flash of
recognition; a swift. smile frdm each to
each; a. burning blush on the pale Ma-
donna-like face, suddenly grown child-
the thought. of the lookerson. I think
no one besides myself had observed. this
little by—play. No one seemed surprised
when Jim, offering his arm, said inhom-
monplace accent: “Come, sister,” and'
they walked away demurely together,
the other members of “the army” close-
ly following. Soon they all disap-
peared within the door ofI a low brick
building on Ninth street, over which on
a white arch was painted in large black
letters, “Salvation Army hall.”
Next day I met upon't-he street Sam
Hunt. “Did you know how suddenly
ilim enlisted?” he asked. “Tha-tm't'he
girl he left beliipd him—the om‘with
the timbrel. Did you notice her? It’s
15 years since they parted. They’ve
loved each other since they were babies.
n
She wouldn’t write to him, though. be-
cause he had ‘gone ofi out- west and got
wild and. wicked.’ ” I
“How will it be now ?” I asked. i
“Oh, he’s all right now. He’s a con-
vert, sure enough,” laughed Sam.
“They prayed with him at the hall. I '
don't know what. he told them, buthe
told me he was just everlastingly sorry
for everything he had ever done to keep
him and Nell apart. That's pe E,
ain’t it? Qbeer, wasn’t. it? . w he

Philadelphia Patriotic.
PHILADELPHIA, July 5.—Tbe cele-
bration of the nation’s birthday in this
city was the uoisiest and most patriotic
in years. Despite the usual proclamation
by the mayor forbidding the discharge of
fireworks, there was a continuous explo-
sion in all sections of the city. A more
delightful day for the celebration would
be hard to find. The decorations this
year were more extensive than for many
years. From nearly every house Old Glo-
ry was waving, and Chestnut street was
one solid mass of red, white and blue.
The celebration of the day formally bc-
gun at midnight, when the bell in the
tower of Independence hall struck 123
times, one for each year of the nation’s
life. .._ _
Arbitration Option-l.
THE HAGUE, July 5.—-A.t a meeting
yesterday afternoon of the arbitration
committee the question whether arbitra-
tion should be obligatory or optional was
raised and drew a categorical declaration
from the German delegate to the effect
that he had received formal instructions
not to accept the principle of obligatory
arbitration diherw' e than by special con-
ventions. In viev of this statement at
ticle 10 of the Russian proposal was
struck out and replaced by a provision
declaring arbitration should be optional
except in the case of conventions between
the powers. All the delegates adhered to
this, M. Bourgeois, head of the French
delegation, declaring he accepted it only
i as a compromise.

W'ALTHAM, Mass, July 5,—The 24
"hour motor paced match between Frank
Waller and Burns Pierce, which started
Monday afternoon and was the chief at-
traction of the two days’ meet at the
Waitham Bicycle park, proved consider-
able of a disappointment. At the com-
pletion of the race Pierce had a lead of
about 69 miles, and the record was not
even approached. At 3 o’clock yesterday
morning Waller was taken sick and sub~
sequently retired from the track, reap-
pearing only at intervals throughout the
remainder of the day.

Otis as Soon as Possible.
WASHINGTON, July 5.——Reports
from recruiting stations throughout the
country confirm the belief of the warde»
partment that there are on hand enough
recruits to nit-ct the needs of Major Gen-
eral Otis for filling up the regular regi-
ments now in the Philippines.
Orders have been sent to the difierent
stations to forward as rapidly as possible
to Sam 'Francisco all recruits on hand.
At. San Francisco they will be mobilized
and drilled and will do target practice.
General Shatter, who has this work in
(huge, has recommended to the war de-
partment that recruits be detained at the
Presidio as long as possible to enable
them to go all the necessary instruction
in target practice, but owing to (the ne-
cessity of avoiding any delay in the de-‘
parture of transports the war department
feels that the drilling will have to be sub-
ordinated to the loading and departure
of the transports. ' '
Just as soon as the recruits have been
mobilized at San Francisco orders will
be issued for recruiting the volunteers'to
fill the nine volunteer regiments. It is
probable that these orders will be sent
out immediately and that thenumber of
recruiting stations will be largely in-
creased in the country districts as well
as the cities. .
The quartermaster’s department has
been very active in the work of obtaining
additional transportation, and General
_Ludington~~now believ that he has on
‘tiand in the Pacific fl sufficient trans-
ports to fill all requirements.

Bebnkes the Prince of Monaco For
Hie Letter to Mme. Dreyfus. .
PARIS, July 5.--Oomte Boni de Cas-
teiiane, who married Miss Anna Gould,
has addressed a comm'anication to the
Prince of Monaco sharply criticising the
prince for his recent letter to Mme. Drey-
fus inviting her and her husband to so-
journ at his chateau after the prisoner’s
acquittal, of which the prince expressed
himself as confident. The comte, who
charges the prince with “interfering in
an affair-fin which you are in no way
concerned,” says:
“If, as a foreign sovereign, you thought
you could influence French officers in the
grave verdict tuey are about to pro-
nounce, I beg you to note that we do not
stand on an equal footing, as none of us
would condescend to call to account a
prince who is under tutelage.
, “You are, perhaps, a relative of Drey.
fus by marriage, but, in that case, it is“
premature to triumph. If, on the other
hand, it is as a protector of gambling
houses that you intervene, permit me to
tell you that Dreyfus himself would dis-
pense with your services.”
Blast Furnace Strike Not Settléd.
' SHARON, Pa., July 3.—The strike
