not seera to take connt of the fact that
I was ragged and tough looking and
more than half drunk when I rung your
doorbell. My God, what a life I've
lived! The saloon has housed me and
homed me and made hell on earth for
me. But that prayer stuck to me all the
time. Jly promise not to drink was
broken in a thousand pieces inside of
two Sundays, and I lost the job you
found for me and landed in a police sta-
tion two days afterward, but I never
forgot you or your prayer. I don't
know what good it's done me, but I
never forgot it, and I won't do any
harm to you nor let any one else. So
you're free to go. That's why." I
The bishop did not stir. Somewhere
ft church clock struck 1. The man had j
put on his tiat and gone back to his seat
on the stone. The bishop was thinking
hard. I
"How long is it since you had work?"
4ie asked, and the man standing up ;
answered for the other.
"More'n six months since either of
us did anything to tell of, unless you !
connt holding up work. I call it pretty !
wearing kind of a job myself, especially 1
when we put in a night like this one j
and don't make nothing. "
"Suppose I found good jobs for both
of you. Would you quit this and begin
all over?"
"What's the nse?'' The man on the
stone spoke sullenly. "I've reformed a
hundred times. Every time I go down
deeper. The devil's begun to forcelose
on me already. It's too late. "
"No I" said the bishop, and never be
fore the most entranced audience had
he felt the desire for souls burn up in
him so strongly. All the time he sat
there during the remarkable scene he
prayed: "O Lord Jesus, give me the
souls of these two for thee I I am hun
gry for them I Give them to me I"
"No I" the bishop repeated. "What
does God want of you two men? It
doesn't .so much matter what I want,
but he wants just what I do in this
case. You two men are of infinite value
to him." And then the bishop's won
derful memory came to his aid in an
appeal such as no one else on earth
among men could make under such cir
cumstances. He had remembered the
man's name in spite of the wonderfully
busy years that lay between his coming
to the house and the present moment.
"Burns," he said, and he yearned
over the men with an unspeakable long
ing for them both, "if you and your
friend here will go home with me to
night I will find you both places of
honorable employment. I will believe
in you and trust you. You are both
comparatively young men. Why should
God lose you? It is a great thing to
win the love of the great Father. It is
a small thing that I should love you,
but if you need to feel again that there
Is love in the world you will believe
mo when I say, my brothers, that I love
you, and in the name of him who was
crucified for our sins I cannot bear to
see you miss the glory of the human
life. Come I Be men ! Make another try
for it, God helping you. No one but
God and you and myself need ever
know anything of this tonight. He has
forgiven it. The minute you ask him to
you will find that true. Coins I We'll
fight it out together, you two and I.
It's worth fighting for. Everlasting life
is. It was the sinner that Christ caiue
to heln. I'll do what I can for von. 0
God, give 1110 the souls of these two
men I"
The bishop broke into a prayer to
God that was a continuation of his ap
peal to tho men. His pent np feeling
had no other outlet. Before he had
prayed many moments Burns was sit
ting with his face buried in his hands,
Bobbing. Where were his mother's
prayers now ? They were adding to the
power of tho bishop's. And the other
man, harder, less moved, without a
previous knowledge of the bishop, leaned
back against tho fence, stolid at first,
but as the prayer went on lie was moved
by it. What force of tho Holy Spirit
tiwept over his dulled, brutal, coarsened
life nothing but tho eternal records of
the recording angel cau ever disclose,
but tha t sumo supernatural presence that
smote rani on the road to Damascus
and poured through Henry Maxwell's
rhmvh tho morning ho asked disciples
to follow in Jesus' steps and had again
.broken irresistibly over the Nazareth
' Avenue congregation now manifested
, himself in this foul corner of the mighty
city and over tho natures of these two
j sinful, sunken men, apparently lost to
all tho pleadings of conscience and
memory of God. Tho bishop's prayer
seemed to break open tho crust that had
for years surrounded these two men and
shut them off from divine communica
tion, and they themselves were thor
oughly startled by tho event.
Tho bishop ceased, and at first ho
himself did not realize what had hap
j pened. Neither did tho two men. Burns
still sat with his head bowed between
I his hands. The man leaning against the
: fence looked at the bishop with a face
in which new emotions of awe, repent
ance, astonishment and n broken gleam
of joy struggled for expression,
j The bishop rose.
i "Come, niv brothers! God is good.
' Yon shall stay at the settlement tonight,
! mul 1 will make good my promise as to
tho work. ' '
I Tho two men followed tho bishop in
i silence. When they reached tho settle
! ment., it was after 3 o'clock. Tho bishop
: let them in and led them to a room. At
! tho door he paused a moment. Ilia tall,
1 commanding figure stood in tho door-
way, and ins latoiace, worn wnn ins
recent experiences, was illuminated
with the divine glory.
"God bless you, my brothers!" he
said, and. leaving them his benediction,
he wont away.
Iu the morning ho almost dreaded to
faco tho men, bnt tho impression of tho
night had not worn away. True to Ins
promise, tho bishop secured work for
1 them. The janitor at the settlement
j needed an assistant, owing to the growth
! of the work there. So Burns was given
. J the place. The bishop succeeded in get-
and you did 1 tins: his corrtDanion a riosition as driver
for a firm of warehouse dray manufac
turers not far from the settlement.
And the Holy Spirit, struggling in
these two darkened, sinful men, began
his marvelous work of Ta-onrntion
it was tne arxernoon following that
morning when Burns was installed in
his new position as assistant . janitor
that he wras cleaning off the front steps
of the settlement when he paused a
moment and stood tip to look about him.
The first thing he noticed was a beer
sign just across the alley. He could al
most touch it with his broom from
where he stood. Over the street imme
diately opposite were two large saloons,
and a little farther down were three
more.
Suddenly tho door of the nearest sa
loon opened, and a man came out At
the same time two more went in. A
strong odor of beer floated up to Burns
as he stood on the steps of the settle
ment. He clutched his broom handle
tight and began to sweep again. He
had one foot on the porch and another
on the step just below. Ho took another I
step down, still sweeping. The sweat
stood out on his forehead, although the
day was frosty and the air chill. The
saloon door opened again, and three or
four men came out. A child went in
with a pail and came out a moment
later with a quart of beer. The child
went by on the sidewalk just below him,
and the odor of the beer came up to
him. He took another step down, still
sweeping desperately. His fingers were
purple as he clutched the handle of tha
broom.
Then suddenly he pulled himself up
one step and swept over the spot he had.
just cleaned. He then dragged himslf
by a tremendous effort back to the floor
of the porch and went over into the cor
ner of it farthest from the saloon and
began to sweep there. "0 God," he
cried, "if the bishop would only come
backl" The bishop had gone out with
Dr. Bruce somewhere, and there was
no one about the settlement that he
