As ho 11107011 down the street greeting his numerous friends many were the glances of ralnglca curi osity nnd surbrlso turned after htm.

"But that is not what I startud in to tell you about , " continued tbo gentleman. "It was ot the narrow escape Mr. Mills had from embarking on the sen of journalism. Al though ho then , as now , uossesed a power of eloquence , n force of persuasion and a charm of manner which attracted to bis llttlo church many people who had not for years turned their thoughts to matters religious , iio was notsutistiod with tbo results achieved , nnd was over striving to Improve the at- tntctivonoss of hi.s meetings and add to his congrogatinn's numbers , With the nowspix- nor people u.o young minister was u prima favorite , autl bo spent many pleasant hour in the editorial and eomiwing rooms of tbo old Times building'-il Deadwaod. "It was ou ono of his visits that ho con- cludofl that u uowspauer published wholly in iho interests ot religion would not only fill a long felt w.uit o.it bo the .moans of sowing the seeds of truth on ground inac cessible from the pulpit. The matter was discussed thoroughly with his newspaper friends and all that was wanted to launch the venture was to give the now appli cant for patronage and favor a name.
