A Siren
She Proved a Lure In the
Right Direction
By F. A. M1TCHEL
The First Congregational church of
Halseyvllle experienced great difficulty
iu retaining a minister,
Indirectly the small salary was the
cause of the trouble. It was but $000
a year, and no man could be found to
accept it except some recent graduate
just i egiunlng III? life work. These
young men were all bachelors. There
was a girl iu the congregation. Miss
Beatrix Severance, daughter of the
managing deacon, who as soon as a
young man fresh from a theological
seminary took up the duties of pastor
i- in t • we.uu about him a spell, fie
wtciid gradually become devoted, then
on i.; •• pretext or another would hand
in his resignation and leave for anoth
er field.
a few of tiie parishioners who were
in the secret advocated securing a mar
ricii man for pastor. Acting on thesug
g»vsti"U. they "called" a man with a
•■•iu- and six clildreu. But the salary
i- so small that the more prosperous
iu 'rubers of the congregation were con
til. :ally compelled to put their hiinds in
tii r pockets to he'p the family out.
i i:i*s ami donaiiou parties were resort
ed to till at last the congregation be
came wary of the business. The pas
tor secured a call with a higher salary,
j and the First church returned to the
o <1 system of having a bachelor to fill
the pulpit.
When the Rev. Thomas Hidgely, un
married, slopped intu the pulpit vacat
ed by the pastor with a family, none of
tlio congregation except a committee
who had beeu sent to hear him preach
[ had seen hint. As he stepped forward
to I'gin tiie service it few of those who
understood the cause of the frequent
re>i^nati<>us of the church's pastors
1i>o';.k1 .it one another meaningly. He
hnu tlery red Ir'ir and enormjU3 joints,
wli. e his complexion was a freckled
brown. If these persons had spoken
their thoughts they would have 6aid,
"At last we have a man whom Trix
Severance will let alone."
Beatrix, who was in her accustomed
it in her father's pew looking up at
the mi;: ster. was of the same opinion.
However, when he sent his first word
r --Hug over the congregation it was
like the lower notes of the organ.
There was scarcely a member of the
congregation but admitted that Mr.
Kidgely possessed a resonant voice.
It seemed not to make any difference
whether he raised it or lowers;! it,
the effect was the same. When he
spoke in those tones that are intended
to be impressive, but are usually In
audible, his most subdued note could
be distinctly heard in every part of
the house.
But when Mr. Itidgely began his
sermon it was evident that his voice
was not his principal attraction. There
was a depth as well as a fervor in
everything he said that went both
to the understanding and tiie heart
For the first time in years tho congre
i gation of the First church realized
that they were under a powerful influ
ence. They listened, every eye and
ear intent upon him, till he had finish
ed; then a murmur of satisfaction
broke the stillness.
When the seruiou wns over ana trie
congregation were passing out of the
ihurch the hum of conversation was
entirely about the uew pastor. "Where
I <li«l the committee pick him up?"
"What does it mean that such a man
I will accept our little salary?" "He'll
be called somewhere else within a few
, months." These were some of the
comments made, and all were encomi
ums on Mr. Ridgely. But there were
a tew, a select few, who looked at tlia
waiter from a different point of view.
With them the question was. How
I world Beatrix Severance stand in the
matter, or would the clergyman be
! utiven away by her as the other
[ bachelors had been?
What were Miss Severance's thoughts
or intentions no one knew, for she
kept tuern to her own sweet self,
i;very Sunday she attended service, at
least once, and sat listening to the
clergyman's words without betraying
by her expression an Interest In him
personally. Nevertheless the congre
gations soon noticed that she "was
wearing the same spell over him she
had thrown about the others.
Then a low murmuring began to be
hoard against the girl, who, it was to
be inferred, would drive out this gifted
man Tiiur hail to find fault
with her iu the other cases, for the
men were not talented and could easily
be replaced. Rut here was a wonder
who, when they lost him, could not be
replaced. Indeed, there was not a
member of the congregation but feared
that at any moment he would receh e a
call elsewhere at a far higher salary
than they were paying or could afford
to pay him. Should Trlxie Severance
be allowed to deprive them of their
prize? . .
An Informal meeting of those who
understood the matter was held nt the
bouse of Mrs. Deacon Stoncman.
wherein It was discussed, and the re
sult of the conference was tlint the
deaconess should request her busbar 1
to go to Deacon Severance ami ask him
to warn Ills daughter to keep hands off
the new minister. Deacon Stoneman
called on Deacon Severance, and the
two were closeted together for the
space of half *n hour. Then the visitor
withdrew, and Deacon Stouemnn called
Bentrix into the room, closed the d>>i
and Informed her of the subject of the
recent interview.
•Tapa," said Trixie. "what do yon
wish me to doT
"Nothing so far us Mr. Itidgely is
concerned."
••What does the congregation wish
me to do? Have they mentioned any
especial act 1 have committed with
reference to Mr. Kldgely that they ob
ject tor
"I don't know that they have."
"Well, you may tell them for me
that Mr. Ridgely had best be let alone
with reference to bis treatment of me
and I had best be let alone with refer-,
ence to my treatment of him."
This ended the conference between |
father and daughter. What report he
made to those who had taken it
upon themselves to admonish Beatrix
through him was not known, but it
was probably uot very satisfactory,
for the feeling against the siren in
creased, and it was not long before j
she began to get the cold shoulder
from certain members of the congrega
tion One thing was noticeable-the
relations, so far as they appeared be
tween her and Mr. Ridgely. were 1 ■
no means changed by the fact of bc-r
admonition.
One day Mrs. llarkuess met Mrs.
Gooding on the street, and the two
ladies stopped for a chat.
"Have you heard the news about our
pastor?" asked the former.
"No. What is it?"
"He's had a call."
"I knew It! It's all that minx Trixie
Severance's fault. She's driver him
out as she has driven out the others.
"He hasn't accepted It yet."
"But be will. Do you know wljat sal
ary goes with It?"
"They say it Is double what we are
paying."
"Then he's sure to go."
The news spread that the church s
idol had received a call, and it was gen
erally conceded that it was preliminary
to his leaviug the place on account of
having received a refusal from Beatrix
Severance. Then it began to be known
that in his new field he would receive
double the salary be was paid by the
First church. Meanwhile the feeling oi
antagonism toward Trixie was growin
Uke a rolling snowball. Some even sug
gested that in the event of their losin
thelr pastor she be brought up before
the church aud tried for unseemly con
duct. But the absurdity of such a
course was apparent when some one
asked In what form the charges would
be made.
One Sundav. after reading the usual
notices. Mr. Itldgely said that since it
had become generally known that he
had received a call be would say that
he had declined it and would remain'
with the First church.
Great was the astonishment at tins
announcement. What did it mean?
Was the man crazy to refuse a salary
of $1,200 when he was getting only
$000? Those who understood Miss Sev
erance's part, or her supposed part, iu
these pastoral affairs looked at lier In
Qulringly. Iler face was as passive, us
unintelligible as usual.
The only person in the congregation
who could give a satisfactory cxplaua
tion of the matter was Mrs. Gooding,
who said it was so plain she couldn't
understand why everybody couldn't see
it Trixie had so bewitched the pastor
that rather than leave her he had yh en
up an additional $000 a year. This,
view commended itself to others, a.ui
the Impression gained ground that the
minister's departure was only deferiv.!.
Miss Severauce was playing him as a
cat -would play a mouse. Before long
he would depart, call or no call.
Meanwhile the power of the young
clergyman for good was becoming
known elsewhere, and calls began to
pour in thick aud fast Mr. Kldgely
did not speak of them himsc-if; they
leaked out through those who gave
them. He declined them all.
Then the congregation of the First
church began to think that it was bis
tcve for them that kept him. After all
the Flrat chjjrch was composed, of an
exceptional cl ;.-;a or people, qurte itkj
ly Mr. till!;,'! appreciated the social
advautage» of such u church, This
view was poiiipoohed by a few, but
gained ground geueially.
Finally ail announcement was made
by Mrs. Deacon Severance that was
like a bouib dropped among tiie con
gregation. 11 or dangiitcr, Heatrix, was
engaged t<> Mr Uidguly. All were
! made happy by the news. Tbeir be
loved pastor would now bo a fixture
In the First chur< h. From being the
most unpopular member of the congre
gation Trixle became the most popu
lar. All flocked about her with con
gratulations. i.vlug that (hey were
"so glad;" that dcubtle-j it bad been
through her iiitiiience that Mr. Itidgeiy
bad declined the calls be bad received
and now tlicy would have him always.
Mi:;s Severance received their con
gratulations v.itli the same imperturb
ability tli.it she had borne their re
proaches. In due time the wedding
was cik'lintti 1. a d all were settling
down with i 1.;i.-r that they were
to retain a in':' '• :• who l ad been of
fered several t!i< u«n»d dollars n year
in place i 1' the paltry sum of $000
when the tranquil waters were again
disturbed. The minister announced
from his piiipit that lie had determined
to give up ail regular pastoral work
and preach tho gospel to the poor
wherever nnd whenever he fonnd an
opportunity. lie further stated that
