Show STORY OF THE DELUDE By Virginia Horten. HERE was a ime beforein reigned $;& Jupiter heaven. .when peace j and love and gentle- ness ruled the universe. The world was full of the glory of a perpetual spring. The sun shone with kindly warmth and light, vhich vivifying the yielding earth, fruit and brought fresh blossom plenty. A carpet of grass continually renewed itself, and trees were ever fresh and green. It was one long holiday to the people, who lived in the innocence and purity of childhood. There was no need for work, for the earth, their kind mother, gave all that was necessary, for their welfare, without need jpf their labor. It was the Golden Age of the world, and laughter and music were as common then as trouble and misery are wM - j j common now. ' Why did this age ever end, you jwonder? It came from the desire to jrule. Jupiter ascended the throne of heaven and earth; a code of laws, and morals was instituted, and as heretofore; the people had done right from the; intuitions of their souls; they were suddenly ' j f and rudely awakened to the possibility i With this mental conception came as of evil. : j":-. a result a material change. The Golden Age was succeeded by the Silver Age. The people did not suddenly become evil, but there was a gradual dropping away from the old childlike faith, The world grew older and the people, Wlio, thus far, had been always young, began to grow old, too. The perpetual spring gave way to the four seasons, and jheat and cold, in the- - intensity; drove the r in caves. people to seek Then the e? did not yield so abundantly and man was driven to sow the seed, and for the first time the oxen ' were placed under the yoke to drivei the ; ' furrows. So age succeeded age, the Brazen producer of a warlike race, was lowed by the Age of Steel, with men hard as that metal itself. Then the crime burst upon the world like an fire, sweeping before it and annihilating truth, honor, justice and mercy. Fraud and cunning and violence and greed came! into! the hearts of men, and fathers could not trust their sons, nor husbands their wives. Not satisfied with what the Surface of the earth yielded, the men must needs dig into the bowels and cruel Iron and mischief-breedin- g gold had their . all-devour- ing ; birth.! f ' M j the world worthy a race,and to with more grateful beings. When he had finished he raised his hand to throw a thunderbolt which would fire the world and utterly destroy it, but Mercury held his hand. Sire, would you destroy heaven, too, by so rash a deed ? Jupiter then realized how so great a conflagration might set fire to the heavenly bodies, and changed his plan. Mercury was dispatched to chain up Aquilo, the North Wind, which drives away the clouds, and to call forth Notus, the South Wind, who soon covered the land with a pitchy blackness. Then the rain descended In torrents, but Jupiter, still unsatisfied, called on his brother Neptune to let loose his waters. Then, hurling a thunderbolt, he rent the world from end to end, and thus drove up the waters from the sea In solid walls, which rose hundreds of feet In the air and fell with resounding crashes, destroying plants, cattle, houses, people. And so the world was destroyed. The were covered by the highest tree-tono trace of human habiwaters, surging tation could be seen, and the whole world was a great sea, extending where the top of Mount Parnassus rose as little Island in Its midst. When Jupiter saw his object accomplished he commanded Notus to retire, and Aquilo soon drove back the dark veil of clouds, while Apollo smiled upon the waste. Then Neptune commanded Triton to sound upon his horn, and the waters retreated. The land, rich with moisture, soon put forth its strength, and the world soon became a garden of beauty again. So out of death is there a regeneration and a new life. Iris, the goddess of the rainbow and the messenger of Juno, looked ftiwn upon the radiant garden, and saw on the top! of Parnassus two beings, who were all that had been saved when the devastating waters flooded the world. Deucalion and his wife Pyrrha, both just and faithful and good, saw the goddess smile, and hope filled their hearts. With new vigor they sought the temple of the oracle, and with bowed heads and silent prayers asked guidance how they might repeople the world with a race as good and pure as their ancestor Prometheus had done long ag. As they knelt in the temple, cevcnd as it was with sliine and ooze, a soft rushing as of distant waters sounded upon their ears. It soon became a distinct sound, which formed itself Into these words: Depart into the woods, and with flowing hair and unloosed garments, cast behind ; you the hones of your mother. Pyrrha and Deucalion thought they must have heard an avenging spirit Speak, for how; cou2d they be so wicked as to desecrate the remains of the deceased. But suddenly, as they wandered dejectedly along, a , bright thought came to Deucalion. "Pyrrha, if I mistake not, the earth is our mother,! the great parent of all. The stones are her bones. Let us east no harm. them behind us, It can-dand assented, they did Pyrrha readily as the oracle commanded. And so the new races rose to life. The stones thrown upon the ground became soft and took on the shape of rude block forms which by and by appeared as living: images. The stony part became the bones; the slime and moisture the flesh! and blood, and the veins remained veins only with different functions. All those thrown by the womans hand became women, and those that Deucalion cast behind him became men. Under the guidance of Pyrrha &e women became noble and good and worthy of the land they inhabited. The men, following! Deucalion, were brave and honest, truthful and and so in those early days was laid the foundation of the principles that must ever be kept fresh and vigorous, that a nation may live. Then Jupiter looked down upon his new creation, and he was pleased. And the smile from his countenance caused a glory to descend to the people. And they were roused from the sluggish labor of mere bodily toll, and felt the spirit within them moved. And some, rising up beyond their fellows, looked! upon the glory of the past, saw the promise that waved as a banner of light for all who would attain it, and strove to wing their souls to the fountain whence light and truth come to man. . And the reward was! not held back, feel the joy of it. For and we that upward flight of the spirit In those times long dead, yet living for us, has given to the world art, music, poetry, science. And we still look upon their works and listen with attentive ear to strains, and we are lifted In spirit to the very land, borne and up to the very time when all this wonder was upon the earth, and the wonder is not yet dead-f-- it lives in the, immorof the race, and will continue so tality, as man continues to have a speck long of the divine within him. re-peo- ple - , ps . THOMAS GREEK WAY. THE LEADER OF THE MANITOBA LIBERALS. .

He twice married in the latter country and went to Manitoba in 1868. He was returned to the dominion house of commons ic 1874, and was unseated in the following year. He aided materially in settling and developing southern, Manitoba, and .was elected by acclamation to the legislature, in 1879. He was in 1883, 1886 and 1888, and again in 1892. He formed a government on the resigj T re-elect- THE DELUGE, departed; she, the goddess of purity and innocence, still found a refuge in the hearts of some young maidens. But after a while even she was' forced to ' leave. And then, with no hand to stay its deadly leap to destruction, the world swept on, and blackness was too light a word to describe its state. Jupiter looked down from his throne on high at the pitiful state of the earth, but only anger found place in his heart at the people who dared to destroy their beautiful garden; and make it a prison house, dark and; drear. And in his anger he called an assembly of the : gods.; Then came one and all along the Milky Way, which was the royal road to the Palace of Heaven. The abodes of the great rose on each side of this silvery pathway, the gods of lesser might dwelling remote from the central sphere; When all had assembled a hush fell upon the company. Jupiter sat upon his throne arrayed in all his dazzling splendor. His right hand grasped the thunderbolt, which, at his will, he hurled through the air at wrong-doer- s. Juno sat upon his right and shared the throne with him. Mercury, from whose face even Jupiter's dark frown could not dispel the bright, bewitching smile, hovered over the lord of the counsel, awaiting his every command. The other gods and goddesses stood or sat around the hall, and from all faces an anxious suspense was reflected. Could the world in its wickedness have known of the sorrow and anguish it caused the high potentates of heaven, would It have been better and refrained from evil doing? Who can tell? After a long silence Jupiter addressed the assembled host.

The other day, when Paderewski was dining at a hotel, a fine nickel plated banjo was sent in by a banjo player, with the Request that the great piano player should write a short musical sentiment on the sheepskin head. Paderewski complied with the request, and this is the sentiment to which he attached his signature: I have not the pleasure of being a performer on this beautiful instrument; am only a piano player. Now the banjo player Is asking his friends if the virtuoso was jollying him. Church Growth, The growth of the church is not keep- ing pace with the growth of the cities.

News. Seventeen years ago this summer the girl was sent out to carry a lunch to her brother, who was herding cattle not far from the house. This was the last seen of the little one until a letter from New York came recently to the home of the Mattsons from the daughter, now a young lady 21 years old. After her sudden and mysterious disappearance the country- - was searched for miles around; all. the sloughs were dragged and every effort made to recover the child who was lost. Finally the search was given up and the little girl was mourned as dead; and when what were supposed to be the hones of a small child and some pieces of clothing were found in a large slough near the Mattson farm. It was thought certain that the little one was dead, and all hopes died. The letter which came to reawaken hopes in the hearts of the parents stated that, on his deathbed a man whom the girl had been brought up to believe was her father had confessed that, seventeen years ago, he had stolen her from her prairie home. He told her the names of her parents, where they lived and fully described to her the particulars of her abduction. A letter written to verify the; deathbed Confession stated that 'he young lady would return at onco to her home, from which she had been so long separated. The story seems too strange to believe, but it is nevertheless true, and when the young lady comes there will be rejoicing In that home.
