Hurprlsed to see

Harry Is our
nephew, and lives
(In the country fif-
teen miles uway.
He did not nay
anything particu-
larly about c oming,
until after one and
another of tin- family had left ti, room,
; and he and I were alone by the hearth.
• Then he said:
"Aunt Mary, I've left home."
"Left home!" I repented aft' r him.
" a young boy like you lef home? Why,
what do you mean?"
| "Father and I had some words and
I quit."
A smile came partly over my face,
only to settle Int-. a nerlous look as I
sat thinking what a strange situation
1t would he If any boy of mine ever had
"words" nnd "quit." Our home life all
eame so beautifully before me; there
' were never words; nobody wanted to g<
away; we only wanted our little earth-
i ly paradise to last forever and ever, ""t
; 1 must try to find out what was the
| matter with that home and that boy.
"Harry, what do you mean to do?" I
! asked.
"t">h, I am going to take care of my-
self here In the city. I can do it easily,"
; lie answered me.
"Probably you ceuld do It some way.
if you had to, but noi sMlly/' i
swen-d. "You know your home Is a
beautiful one; you are an only son, and
always used to the best of clothing. You
are used to an abundant nnd wholesome
living, nnd you will miss your father s
farm, which Is like a great plantation."
"You need not worry about me; I can
take en re of myself."
I talked on with Harry, and told him
of a boy whom I knew about his age,
and much more capable, who received
three dollars a week, and had to be at
his place at 0 In the morning. t told
him how low wages are In the city for
boys, especially in hard times, when
men are glad to take boys' work. Harry
answered that "no one need think he
would work for three dollars a week."
"I guess I won't. I might take bIx,
but no less."
Harry went to bed, nnd I hastened to
write to his mother that Harry was safe
under our roof, for 1 could scarcely ple-
I ture that home from which the only
son had run away. To my great sur-
1 prise, In a day or two all his clothing
was sent by his mother, his heavy flan-
nels and winter overcoat and ull.
I Harry looked In vain for work. At
] last, through a friends of ours, Harry
had the clianco to go In a store for
three dollars a week, and ho felt
obliged to take the place. Then I made
up my mind that Harry had better see
what It meant to tako care of oneself.
| I said:
"Now, Harry, you have made a good
visit; you are in business, nnd we can-
not tako bonrders. You will have to
I find a boarding place. Harry answered:
I Aunt Mary, I cannot pay board until
I I earn more."
"Yes, you must; you have volunta-
rily left home to take care of yourself,
which means board yourself and take
every care."
Day after day he stayed on until
again I had to tell hliti: then he found
a boarding house, where he was to pay
three dollars a week and room with u
plumber boy. After a few days there
he came up nt evening with a sad
story. The board was poor, there was
no butter for dinner, ami a great many
things were lacking whloh hud been
Indispensable to Harry.
A good deal of mall came to my house
I went back to my own hearthstone.
A few evenings aftcl Harry came asatn
and said:
"I am going to leave my place and try
to do better In some other city."
I did not tell him I had been to his
father's, but I said:
"If I were you, I would go home to-
morrow morning on the early train."
"No, 1 will never go unless father
asks me to come. I would go if he did."
Harry must have changed his mind
over night, for as Boon as the mall could
bring me word a letter came from the
grandmother of the family, saying that
Harry was at home and helping about
as If he had never been away, and the
only comment was that she guessed
• that Harry was as glad to get home as
his father was to have him come."

Social changes of u marked character j
will be wrought by the occupation of
the arid region. In this matter also
Mormon experience Is luminous, l'.rlg-
ham Young sought to found his pros-
perity not only on industrial ethics, but
also upon the happiness of the people.
He Avould not tolerate ldlem and tho
walls of cobblestones still standing In
the older portions of Bait Lake City
were Invented that the church might
pay for the labor of men who would
otherwise have been temporarily sup-
ported by charity. As a means of fur-
nishing entertainment various diver-
sions were plnnned, Including the Sat-
urday night dance, led by the blsh' ps of
the wards. The leader's wisdom Is almost '
as clearly exhibited In his social scheme
an Is Ills plan of Industry. The central
Idea In It was the farm-village. A vil-
lage site, generally a half mile square, '
Is delected In the midst of a tract of 5,-
000 or 0,000 acres to be colonised. In
I'tali there are many small valleys be-
twecn the towering mountains and th«!
village Bite Is generally located near
the center of the valley, and near the
river from which the water Is diverted
Into canals on each side at a sufllclent
elevation to command the Irrigable
lands. The half a square mile Is then
laid out Into blocks of four acres, with
broad avenues between, and the blocks
are divided into lots of an acre each.
On these lots the farmers have their
homes. Here also are their commodious
barns Here they have their poultry
and swine, while considerable space Is
devoted to a market garden The far-
mer then has his farm on the outlying
lands, which are divided Into lots rang-
ing from two up to twenty acres. From
the public park In the center to the
farthest outlying farm Is only two nnd
a half miles. Most farmers traverse a
much shorter distance to reach the farm
from their homes. On the other hand,
the women nnd children enjoy the Im-
portant advantage of having near
neighbors, while the church, school-
house, stores, nnd postolflce are near
at hand. Under this system the ad-
vantages of town life ure blended to n
Very considerable degree with tho
charms of rural existence. It la a sys-
tem full of delightful possibilities. The
Mormons have realized Its substantial
advantages In neighborhood associa-
tion; but their model will be much Im-
proved upon by many colonies of more
recent establishment. Farm life under
the old conditions has involved Isola-
tion. The hunger for human sympathy
nnd company has driven thousands
from tho country to cities already
overcrowded. This factor Is responsi-
ble for many a social tragedy, ns well
as for the problems which have arisen
In congested city populations.—The
Century.
A Mother'* Influence.
The boy's first Idea of a woman Is hit
mother, nnd unless she fnlls to win hl
love nnd respect he has a chivalrous
devotion to her which will cover his
Whole life, if mothers would give their
children definite religious Instructions
by word and example :""i rule than
wisely, lovingly, methodically and firm-
ly In habits of obedience, self-control
and purity nnd truth, boys would less
dften develop into uncontrolled, lawless,
unehlvalrous men and selfish husbands,
and girls would not grow Into frivolous,
vain, self-asserting, fast women. Homes
would be happier, the world would be
raised, reformed, ennobled.

AUNT MARY. I'VE LEFT HOME,
for Harry—city mall and I found that
he was answering advertisements for
easy Jobs. He sold a ntee pair of trou-
sers and invested the money In some
of the things that you must ;ive a dol
lar or so security, but 1" never heard
nny farther front bis dollars.
Ills father often bad business In the
elty, and met Harry face to faee sever-
al times, but only pass« il with some
light salutation, as If he had seen him
every hour In the day.
I knew that Harry had grown up n
headstrong boy, that money had really
been wasted on him. He would not go
to the home school. He had been sent
!o one i lact and another, but had made
little improvement.
On the other hand, I knew that the
heme bad not tsvn much of n home for
a restless boy. Everything must be in
spick span order Inside that house
There must not be kite timber nor
sernp book material nor anything to
litter the house. There wns no games
and no one to play games with him ns
he grew a larger boy. If he could steal
out In the kitchen > r stable with the
farm men of an evening and have a
game of eards he considered himself
fortunate. Ills mother I ad always tried
to screen hint from his father, and his
father was looking up front his figuring
or newspaper and tilling hint to stop
talking or go to bed.
I made up my mind to take a day in
the country mys. If. nnd see what my
brother-in-law thought about Harry,
of course, 1 should not ask him, for if
I did he would not answer ine.
My sister used to explain to me that
he was a reserved sort .i man who
never wanted to be meddled with. He
had money enough, so she used to tell
him what she could not get along with
out. and really, she bad clothing enough
only she had no choice In the use of
money; there was no money thnt was
her own.
I had written my slst- r that I was go-
ing to give myself a day In the country
With her, fixing the time To my sur-
prise. William met me himself; gener-
ally he sent n man to meet any of us.
1 had often heard him say that Harry
was good for nothing, more trouble
Ohm in* u as worth, #t But i saw th*l
he was mellowed, and that he thought
he could talk a little to nte going along
nnd my sister would not hear him. Wil-
liam began:
"It Is hard to bring up a boy nnd have
hint leave Just when be Is ttlng to be
of use, and now, when I feel my own
health giving way. why. he Is worth
ten dollars a week to me instead of
three."
"Hid you ever tell him so?" I asked.
"Mercy, no; | wouldn't humor him or
spoil him In that wnv."
"William, I have heard y«>u say he was
good for nothing, but 1 do • t suppose
you have told him that, have y u""
"Oh. yes; his mother has hum .red
him to death and spoiled him." Then
as if he were afraid of betraying ;•
weakness In wishing him bio k, he add-
ed: "I know It would pi ase Ills m • I - r
to have him come back and st"p t?;*
neighbors* talk, but 1 shan't ask him."
I ventured more than I thought I
wouhl. and told William that n boy or
girl needed a home, but that all the
books and all the rub s In the world
would not make It if the true | | a , f
home was not In the hearts of tho two
whi stand guardians of the home; that
a home wns no ptsce for solflshnesr
Won One.
An Intelligent foreigner Is said to
have expressed himself after the follow-
ing fashion in regard to the English
language: "When 1 discovered that If
I was quickly 1 was fast. If I stood firm
i was fast. If i spent too frsely i was
fast, and that not to eat wns to fast, I
was discouraged; but when I camo
across the sentence, 'Tho first one won
one guinea prize.' 1 was tempted to give
up trying to leurn the English lan-
guage."

A spei ial from Oki.ihoina ' ity on
Monday say a: The rush at tho land
office continues. Messrs. Dill and
l!oss with their lorco of clerks aro
i i pt busy from morning till night.
Great care is being taken in receiving
lilii: ;- and hundreds are refused. The
(!cp;u'tmcut is doui ; its be -t to stamp

News just received from Okmulgee,
the capital of tho Greek nation, stales
that Principal Chief L. C. Perry man
and Sam Grayson, treasurer, were
icir.cd by a mob whilo in a room in
iheir hotel at Okmulgee atid curried
by foroo to the Council House and
held to account for some money which
they were accused ol paying out
without authority. It seems that at
t ho last session of the Council C. \Y.
Turner was appointed financial agen'
by the Muskogeo Indians to secure
$1500,000 from tho United Spates gov-
ernment, a part of iho proceeds for
the sale of Oklahoma. For his trou-
ble Mr. Turner was to rceoive .'1 pei
cent of tho whole amount, or $1S,0U0.
It is alleged that Mr. Turner procured
ouly $200,000 and then drew on the
treasurer for $0,000, which was paid.
The Council was not pleased with thi- .
as they said Mr. Turner was to get
$000,000, not $200,000, and that there
was nothing due to him until he had
ful 11 lied his contract The election
comes ofT shortly. This Council,
which was convened especially to re-
t.bo the rolls, lias b"uu brimful of
polities, and it is supposed that those
who have been cut off tho rolls, with
those who oppose thu present chici,
have taken advantage of this $3,000
being paid out, and hope, by charging
the chief with usurping authority, lo
decapitate him politically, as the con-
vention to nominate Principal Chief
meets the latter part of May. It is
feared that much trouble will arise,
as it is reported that armed men from
various parts of the country aro gath-
ering at the capital. It is further re-
ported that thu Chief, a man of un-
blemished political character, is very
much hurt to think that those he has
served for eight years would treat him
I bus. Twenty marshals were tole-
graphed for from Muskogee, and sev-
eral went from Tulsa to arrest the in-
surgents.

An appeal from the decision of the
district judge at Oklahoma City In the
Choctaw injunction case was filed in
the suprdmo court late Wednesday af-
ternoon. This is tho case in which
the government seeks to have the
Choctaw Railway company enjoined
from going through tho Kickapoo res-
ervation, instead of building six miles
south, as tho original route was sur-
yed and agreed upon. Tho roatl'a
desiro to go through tho reservation
was to iniss Tecumseh and start a
rival town of t'aeir own, because Te-
cumseh would not fully accede to thoir
demand for a bonus. Tho Kiclianoo
reservation has been opened to settle-
ment since the controversy began, but

morons Indian allotments which aro

manj reasons alleged by Judge Scott's

wns not good law. Tho brief is one
of the most thorough and exhaustive
ever filed in tho territory, being the ;
work of ex-lJnited Stales District At-
