IN HIS, STEPS.
, r "What Would Jesus Do?"
By 0HAELI3 M. EHELJOS. ;
OoP7rll nd published In book form by
ia it moe Publishing Co. of Chicago.
When Saturday, the election 'day,
came, the excitement rose to its height
An attempt waa made to close all the
saloons. ' It . vras partly successful, but
there was a great deal of drinking go
. " ingon all day. The Rectangle boiled
. and heaved and cursed and turned its
-. worst side out to the gaze of the city.
Gray had continued his meetings dur
' ing the week, and the results had been
even greater than he had dared to hope.
' When Saturday came, it seemed to him
: that the crisis in his work had been
. reached. The Holy Spirit and the satan
of rum seemed to rouse up to a desper
ate conflict. The more interest in the
' meetings the more ferocity and vileness
outside. The saloon men no longer con
. cealed their feelings. Open threats of
violence were made. Once during the
week Oray and his little company of
helpers were assailed with missiles of
various kinds as they left the tent late
at night. The police sent down special
protection, and Virginia and Rachel
, were always under the protection of
Rollin or Dr. West Rachel's power in
song had not diminished. Rather with
each night it seemed to add to the in
tensity and reality of the Spirit's pres
ence. ,
Oray had at first hesitated about
having a meeting that night, but he
had a simple rule of action and was al
ways guided by it The Spirit seemed
to lead them to continue the meeting,
and so Saturday night he went on, as
usual.
The excitement all over the city had
reached its climax when t'ae polls closed
y- at 6 o'clock. Never had there been such
a contest in Raymond. The Issue of
license or no license had never been an
. issue under such circumstances. Never
. before had such elements in the city
been arrayed against each other. It was
an unheard of thing that the president
of Lincoln college, the pastor of the
First church, the dean of the cathedral,
the professional men living in the fine
houses on the boulevard, should come
personally into the wards and by their
presence and their example represent
the Christian conscience of the place.
The ward politicians were astonished
at the sight However, their astonish
ment did not prevent their activity.
The fight grew hotter every hour, and
when 6 o'clock came neither side could
have guessed at the result with any cer-
tamtv. tverv one agreed that never
had there been such ah election in nay
mond, and both sides awaited the an
nouncement of the result , with , the
greatest interest " ' lu "'it i
It was aftetJQ : o'clock when the
meeting at the, tent was closed. , It had
been a strange and. in some respects a ,
remarkable, meeting. ,. Henry Maxwell
had come down again at Gray's request ,
He was completely worn out by the
day's work, but the appeal from Gray
came to him in such a form that he did
not feel able to resist it Donald Marsh
was also present. He had never been to
the Rectangle, and his curiosity was
aroused from what 'he had ', noticed of
the influence of the evangelist in the
worst part of the city. ' Dr. West and
Rollin had come with Rachel and Vir
ginia, and Loreen, who had staid with
Virginia, was present near the organ,
in her right mind, sober, with a humil
ity and dread of herself that kept her
as close to Virginia as a faithful dog.
All through the service Loreen sat with
bowed head, weeping a part of. the
time. Bobbing when Rachel sang the
song, "I was a wandering sheep,"
clinging with almost visible, tangible
yearning to the one hope she had found.
listening to prayer and appeal and con
fession all about her like one who was
a part of a new creation, yet fearful of
her right to share in it fully.
"Thank Gbd l I hope It is true, ex- ,
claimed Henry Maxwell ."Marsh, we :
are in danger here. . Do you realize our 1
situation?. We ought to get the ladies
to a place of safety." . i .;-..!.
"That is true," said Marsh gravely.
At that moment a shower of stones and
Other missiles fell over them:"' The nar- '
cow street and sidewalk in front of them
were completely choked with the worst '
elements of, the Rectangle. ,1,1'
"This looks serious, " said Maxwell
With Marsh and Rollia and Dr. West
he started to go forward through the
amall opening, Virginia, Rachel and
Loreen following close and sheltered by '
the men; who now Teamed something
of their' danger. " The -ectangle was
drunk and enraged. It saw in Daniel
Harsh and Henry Maxwell two of the ;
eaders in the election contest who had
perhaps robbed them of their beloved
laloon. . . ; . . ..
. "Down with the aristocrats!" shout
td a shrill voice, more like a woman's
than a man's. '
A shower of mud and stones followed '
Rachel remembered afterward that
Rollin jumped directly in front of her '
and received on his head and chest a
number of blows that would probably
have struck her if he had not shielded
ber from them. '
, And just then, before ' the police
The tent had bee crowded. As on reached ttoem, Loreen darted rorward
some other occasions, there waa more I at 4119 Bide of .Virginia and pushed her
1 aside, looking up and screaming, it
' was so sudden that no one had time to -jatch
the face of the one who did it
But out of the upper window of a room
aver the very saloon where Loreen had
some out a week before some one had
thrown a heavy bottle. It struck Loreen
an the head, and she fell to the ground
Virginia turned and instantly kneeled
iown by her. The police officers by that
time had reached the little company.
Donald Marsh raised his arm and
ihouted over the howl that was begin
ning to rise from the wild beast in the
mob. ' . "
"Stop! You've killed a woman!"
The announcement partly sobered the
crowd.
"Is it true T". Henry Maxwell asked
as Dr. West kneeled on the other side of
Loreen, supporting her.
"She's dying!" said Dr. West briefly.
Loreen opened her eyes and smiled at
Virginia. Virginia wiped the blood
from her face and then bent over and
kissed her. Loreen smiled again, and
the next moment her soul was in para
iise. And yet this is only one woman out
Df thousands killed by this drink devil
Crowd back now, ye sinful men and
women in this filthy street! Let this
august , dead form be borne through
four stupefied sobered ranks. She was
jne of your own children. The Rectan
gle had stamped the image of the beast
jn her. Thank him who died for sin
ners that the other image of a new soul
now shines out of her pale clay. Crowd
back! Give them roeiat Let her pass
reverentlv. followed and surrounded by
or less disturbance on the outside of the
tent This had increased as the night
advanced, and Gray thought it wise
not to prolong the service. Once in'
awhile a shout as from a large crowd
swept into the tent The returns from
the election were beginning to come in,
and the Rectangle had emptied every
lodging house, den and hovel into the
streets. ......
: In spite of the distractions, Rachel's
singing kept the crowd in the tent from
dissolving. There were a dozen or more
conversions. Finally the crowd became
restless, and Gray closed the service,
remaining a little while with the con
verts, v , , '" ,. ..
Rachel Virginia, Loreen, Rollin and
tbe doctor, President Marsh and Henry
Maxwell went out together, intending
to go down to their usual waiting place
for their car. As they came out of the
tent they at once were aware that the
Rectangle was trembling on the edge of
a drunken riot, and as they pushed
through the gathering mobs in the nar
row streets they began to realize that
they themselves were objects of great
attention. .
"There he is. the bloke in the tall
hat He's the lgaderl" shouted a rough
voice. President Marsh, with his erect
commanding figure, was conspicuous in
the little company.
"How has the election gone? It is
too early to know the result yet, isn't
itr He asked the question aloud, and
a man answered: "They say second
and third wards have gone almost solid
for no license. Ii that is so, the whisky

Is one of his bitter regrets now that his
extravagant habits of life before his
conversion practically threw away half
that father left him. We are both eager
to make all the reparation in our pow
er. ' 'What would Jesus do with this
money?'. We want to answer that Ques
tion honestly and wisely. .The mondy I
shall put into The News is, I am con
fident, in "line with Jesus' probable ac
tion. It is as necessary that we have a
daily Christian paper in Raymond,
especially now that we have the saloon
influence to meet, as it is to have a
church or a college. So I am satisfied
that the $500,000 that Mr. ' Norman 1
will know how to jise so well will be a .
powerful factor in Raymond to do as
Jesus woui. do. ' '
' "About my other plan, Rachel, 1 1
want you to work with me. Rollin and
I are going to buy up a large part of
the property in the Rectangle. The field
where the tent now iH has been in liti
gation for years. We mean to secure
the entire trnct as soon as the courts
have settled thu title. 1 For some time I
have been making a specal study of the
various forms of college settlements and
resident methods of ChriHtian work and
institutional church work in the heart
. of great city Mums.. I do not know that
1 nave yet been able to ten ust what
Is the wisest and most effective kind of
work that enn be done in Raymond,
but I do know this much my money
(I mean God's, which be wants tne to
use) can build ' wholesome ' lodging
houses, refuges for poor women, asy
lums for shopgirls, safety for many and
many a lost girl like Loreen. ' And I do
not want to be simply a dispenser of
this money. God help met I do want
to put myself into the problem. But do
you know, Ruchel. I liavo a feeling all
the time that all that limitless money
and limitless personal sacrifice can
possibly do will not really lessen
very much the awful conditions at
the Rectangle as long as the saloon
is legally establinhed there. I think that
is true of any Christian work now be
ing carried on in uny great city. The
saloon furnishes material to be saved
faster than the settlement or r?sidence
or Tescue mission work can sive it. "
Virginia sudden'y rt seiin.l paced the
hall. Rachel answered Badly and yet
with a note of hope in her voice:
"It is true; but. oh. Virrrinia. what
a wonderful amount of huppinp and
power can come out of this money! And
the saloon cannot alwavs reqiajn here.
1 ne time must come wnen tne Uhnstm
torce in tne City Win tnuuipd.
:. Virginia paused near Rachel and her
pale, earnest face lighted up. , -
"I believe that too. - The number of
those who have promised to do as Jesus
would is increasing. If we once have,
say, .500 such disciples' iri Raymond,
the saloon is doomed. But now, dear, I
want you to look at your part in this
plan for capturing and saving the Rec
tangle. ,. Your voice is a power.,, I have
had many ideas lately. Here is one of
them. Yon could organize among the
girls avinusicul institute'. Give them
the benefit of your training. There are
aome splendid voices in the rough there.
Did any one ever hear such singing as
that yesterday by those women ? Rachel,
what a bpautifnl opportunity I You
shall haye the ht of opportunity in
the way of 'orrns and orchestras that
money can provide, and what cannot
be done with uusic to win souls there
into higher mid butter and purer liv
K?' ... V ...
Before Virginia h'id cvnsed speaking
Rachel's f;ce hs pprfrctly transfigured
with tlip tlmryht of her life work; It
flowed into !rr hivirt v.r.i mind like a
flood, and t!u torrrnt of her feeling
overflowed in tears that coald not be
restrained, It was whut sae had dreamed
of dointf lurnulf. It represented to her
something that she felt was in keeping
with a right uhb of her own talent
"Yes, " she said us she rose and put her
arms about Virginia, while both girls
in the excitement of their enthusiasm
paced the hall "yes, I will gladly put
my life into that kind of service. I do
believe that J esus would have me use
my life in this way. Virginia, what
miracles can we not accomplish with
humanity if we have such a lever as
consecrated money to move things
with!" , : ;
"Add to it consecrated personal en
thusiasm like yours, and it certainly
can accomplish great things," said Vir
ginia, smiling, and then before Rachel
could reply Rollin came in. He hesitat
ed a moment and was passing out of
the hall into the library when Virginia
called him and asked some questions
