Perhaps our friends who read the Jot'H- NAL would like to hear about our journey Home. Mv last work in ISehraska was alone the line of the Union Pacific rail road ending at Kearney and North Pintle. On Monday Sept. 6;h I went on to Hierl- ing, I 'olorado. where I met mother in the morning Sept. 6h and we went on to deliver together. Our train was late, so we reachtd Denver at 11 ft. m. We shop- ied and enjoyed the store windows until 8:45 p. m. wlien we took the train for Colorado Springs, where we were to spend a couple of days with a lady who was mother's pupil in Massachusetts, who is now the wife of a Professor in Colorado ( "oil" ge Oilorodo Springs is the thirj city io Color tdo for xiz.

Wednesday niorninj: we had a lovely carri.ice ride of alsiut sevrnteen mile in to the mountains. We went iipChevenne Canon, following a Iwaut'ful mouniain stream, crossed a ridtfe and came dawn Itar Cref k Cannon. It is useless t try trtdescrilw the beauties of that ride. Thursday morning we Ssnt in visiting tbe college huildings, museum etc. And at noon took the train for Salida. One pleasure of the visit ai that our friend also h id visiting them, Dr. Charles 8 hel don, of Topeka, Kunsai. the author o In His Steps", Dr. Sheldon and his wife were charming people and we considered t h great privilege to meet them io thir 'ay. Thursday afternoon we passed throuffh the wonderful 'Royal Our".' For seven mile and a half we went through the anon of the Arkansas river, most of the way it was so narrow that the railroad was built on a Steele treslle directly over the river and the sides of the canon wer very high and precipitoua. In some places the canon was only fifty feet wii at the bottom and seventy at the top. Tne highest point of the rick wall was over 8.000 feet above the river. We spent the night at Salida so as to have he whole mountain ride by daylight. Our train was late on Friday mornini', but we got away about 9 o'clock crossing Marshall Pass Was a very interesting ride. We wound round and up the sides of the mountain. In some places we could se two tracks below us. The top of ths pass is 10,000 feet above sea level. After crossing the mountains the rail road took us through the Black canon of the Ounmson river, which was a rendit ion of the Royal Oorge, except that it was always wide eno iuh to allow us to go by the side of the river instead of on th top of it. The rest of the ride whs prosaic enouifh and al 8:30 we reachwl Hotchkiss and found Uarry waiting for MS. We are all in the peach business; Roy nailing buses, and Harry picking at the nearest big orchard. 1 have been ustling peaches to can Have brought home two biiggv loads mother paring theai for me to put in the cans.

The twelfth annual Sunday School convention which metal this place last Saturday nnd Sunday was largely attend eii ami was one of the most spiritual con- ventiont that has ever been held in the county. Prof Steid'ev and Miss Haines were ever ready with some good thought nnd spiritual suggestions, and every subject on the program was well discuss ed and if any Sunday school worker did not get any good from this conversion it was his or her fault. The lecture Satur day night by Prof. S'-eidlwy on "The Boy Ood Made" was full of good suggestions and common aensi. and every father in Harrison should have heard it; And his address on Sunday was excellent The lecture given Sunday night by Miss Haines, on her trip to Jerusileai, was without question, the best lecture that ha ever been given in Harrison. Miss Haines is a very descriptive speaker and we are sure the people that listened ti her learned more of Palestine than they could get from reading books for vears. The ieople of Harrison viid with each other ns who could make it the most pleasant for the visiting delegate and we heard .n-iny complimentary remarks by them as to the many kind nesses shown them. Several of the schools were not represented, butBodarc nnd the pleasant Ridge school of Wyo. had a goodly ntimher of delegates pre sent during ths whole session. Olen not being r presented, and no invitation being extended from that place for the convention next year, Ihe Pleasant Ridge school extended such a cordial invitation and as this school has been considered a part of our aaaociatian since its organis ation, bv aa unanimous vote the next convention will be held there. There were many good thoughts brought eut bv the papers presented by the delegate, and discussions entered into by them. We look forward with pleasure for the next meeting, for w snow vne ntasani wo s..Hi rive u on of th bt time w naval ... . i .in var a4. J. E. PHINNEY. Physician Surgeon. OFFICE: Andrews Block.
