CHAPTER IX.
“Thou didst delight my eyes,
/ Yet who sm If Nor first.
Nor last, nor best, that durst
Once dream of the for prize,
Nor this the only time
Thou shalt set love to rhyme."
How dark it it walking along this
silent road! Dark, though only 6
o'clock. How quickly the day dies
when it is December! Such a moon as
this is hardly worth talking about; and
! yet, without it, obscured as It is, how
I much more dismal would the night be!
Was there ever before so silent a
nlghtP Are nil the dogs in the farih
I stcuus dead P There is no sound at
[ all, unywhere, save the stir of sea in
the starlight, far, far below, down
there whore all things seem to sink
into one.
Bridget—what Is Bridget thinking
nowP Has she found out she is gone?
No; not yet. It is early, really, though
it looks so late. Oddly onough, it is
to the sorvant the girl’s mind first
turns, as in her mad, angry folly sho
runs along the road that leads to tbo
little wayside station of which Eyre
had Hpoki n to her. Her hint to Andy
that she would lot lover and father
and cousin see what she could do is
now in process of full completion.
When Eyre had suggested to her to
run away with him and be married by
special license, she had eertalnly, at
the moment, though seem ng to dally
with the Idea, no real intontion ol
following it up. But Sir Ha ph’s un
fortunate coldness of the day bofore,
her father's sterm command, - and,
finally, her cous n's mocking de
termination not to help her to her
folly, had been all too mtici for her
childish pride. She had revolted,
onco for all. Sho would show them!
Eyre’s last words about the (1:30
train, his earnest, really honest ex
pression as ho spoke, had lingered In
her memory, and, waiting, locked up
in her own room, she had, when night
grew, drossod hersolf in her warmest
clothing, and slipping out at tho side
door, began her journey to Denygra
station.
was mere cvor bo long: a mile, or a
road fo deserted? At first she had
prayed that no one might see her on
her way to the station; but now she
would have given a pood deal to hear
the sound of cart-wheels, or the jog
trot of u farmer's horso. But there is
no fair anywhere to-day in the neigh
borhood, and so the road remains
empty and quiet.
The moon, coming out at last from
behind a bank of dark clouds, serves
only to heighten, rather than to lessen,
her sense of lonleness. Now each
hillock and tree and bunch of furze
takes shape and action, and threatens
to attack her on every side. The
terrors of the night are great to those
who know nothing of it. safe within
carefully closed doors of house or
carriage. To Dulclnea, running along
through the dull darkness, a sense of
despair, mingled with active fear, is
uppermost.
“Siienro, how dead; and darkness, how
profound 1
Nor eye, nor list'ningearau object finds.”
In vain she tells herself that it is
not really night; that it is only 6
o’clock; that a few months ago, this
very hour and timo and darkness
would still be called day. It is, with
a sigh that grows into a sob of
passionate relief, that at last she sees
the lamps shining in the little station
before her, with, over there a .quarter
of a mile to the left, the glimmering
lights of the small town that hus given
its name to the station.
Hurriedly she enters it, and, reach
ing the dim platform, that seems en
veloped in a cloudy mist, stands
irresolute. Only for a moment, how
ever, Eyre has come to her, has seized
her hand, is drawing her into the
fuller lights boy, nd.
“Let us stay here,” says she in a
choking tone. “No one can see us
here. And—Oh, a little wildly, ir. was
a long walk! How far—hpw far I am
from home!’’
“You are nervous,” says he,
sensibly; “and it is my fault. I forgot,
when 1 suggested t6 you that the walk
here was only u mile, that it would be
undertaken in midwinter. It never
occurred to me that C o’clock would
mean night at tills time of year. You
must try to forgive me that. What is
that you have? Your bag? Give it to
me.”
±u« station is such a minor one
that, at this hour, it is given up to ab
solute soli’ude—almost In the far
distance a sturdy farmer is trudging
to nnd fro, puffing and blowing, and
seeking, by eager marchings from the
. Sate to the station-house, to keep
some warmth in his body; and just
here, where Dulcinea stands, a laborer
goes by on his homeward way; and
there—over there, where the gloom is
thickest—stands, by all the worst luck
in the world. Ralph Anketell. .
He had been lunching in this part
of the neighborhood during the after
noon, and, expecting a parcel by this
train, had decided to wait and take it
home with him. He bad seen Eyre’s
arrival, and wondered at his punch
uallty. the train not being due for a
quarter of an hour or so, had felt a
sense of satisfaction in the thought
that he was really leaving—a thought
justiiied by the amount of luggage
lying on the platform; had designedly
withdrawn so far into the shade that
he should be unseeu by him, not feel
ing equal to a tete-a-tete with the man
he suspects to be*his rival; and had
seen Dulcinea's nervous entrance, and
Eyre’s eager greeting her.
—Is shaking her. It grows too dread
ful to be borne. 'Eyre is talking to
her; she is conscious of that; but
no word he utters is clear to her.
To go back, to go buck!—that one
thought, and that only, is beating like
a hammer in her braiq; but behind it
and through it came another—the odd
est one, surely—that if she goes she
will never see Anketell again,'
Presently the mists of her braia
clear a little, and she cuu wondet
within herself. Eyre is still tilklng—
kindly, no doubt, and soothingly; but
It doesn’t seem of any consequence at
all what he Is saying. Ralph! what
will he think when he hears she it
gone—gone? What will he tbinl
then? She trembles. She becomes
for the first time conscious that she it
cold—so cold; it must be the night air.
To for one Instant imagine their
meeting involuntary would be to know
biibnelf a fool; and when he sees Eyre
posseef himself of the small bag that
Dulcinea carries, he knows the truth
as surely as though all the world were
orying it within his ears.
Numbed—stupified— chilled to the
heart's core, he stands watching the
girl to whom he has given every
thought and desire of his life, willfully
making havoc of them.
••NervousP” says Dulcinea vaguely,
staring at Eyre as if hardly under
standing him. It has come home to
her that certainly he does not under
stand’her. Nervous! is that the word
for this awful pain that is tugging at
her heart? Oh, what madness had
brought her here?
A sense of fear—distinct—clutching
that is making her shiver like this.
She must go back. She will. Even
! the dull lights in the station are be
! ginning to and to her terror. Surely
—surely everybody is looking at her,
wondering about her, gossiping about
her!
Yet the ono person who in reality is
looking at her with lin anguish un
speakable is the one person unsuspect
ed by her.
Sho sighs heavily, as one might
whose mind is made up after a long
conflict She throws up her head.
Eyre is still speaking.
“Wo shall not have long to wait
now.v ho is saying; “the train is just
due. Come, wo had better move a
little thjs way.”
“I can’t!" _ Sho pauses, and looks
straight at her companion, a terrible
misery in her eyes. It seems as if
speech had deserted her. “I won’t go
any further,” she gasps at last pain
fully.
“You mean?” questions Eyre, as if
not able to grasp the truth that lies so
plainly in her white face and gleam
ing eyes. As he pauses for an
answer the shrill whistle of the ap
proaching train cleaves the sharp,
crisp air.
“Forgive me,”says the girl, trembling
ineverylimb. “I—I thought I could do
it, but I can’t I’m frightened—I—”
“I told you you were nervous.” says
he. “And I know it is a wrench; but
surely, darling, it is best for you; you
have so often told me how unhappy
you were-”
“I must have lied to you." says she
solemnly. “Lied. Not meaning it—
not intentionally; but becauso I didn't
know. I know now. I must go home;
I must.”

DUEL TO THE DEATH.
Between an Old Gray Rat and a Sleepy
Pigeon.
Before the sun had begun to light
the streets a pigeon fluttered down
from the top of the Federal building
and began to search for the seeds and
crumbs which chance/ had scattered.
All day she tracked the muddy
stretch of Postoffice Square, of Water
and Devonshire streets, and when
night was falling, tired and footsore,
she flew back to the loity granite
coping where she always slept She
nestlod her head in the warm feathers
on her breast and dreamed of days
when leaky corn wagons passed
through the city streets, and when the
hay markot made her ancestors fat
But the pestilence which walketh
in darkness was astir, says the Boston
Herald.
Between the floors of the Federal
Building, in his nest ot rags and
string, a great gray rat had slept all
day. When darkness had come, and
the upper corridors had ceased to
echo the passing footsteps, he crept
out iD the search of food.
In commissioner Hallett’s office he
found a bit of bread. In the Law Li
brary was an apple-core. But the
two together were hardly enough to
whet his appetite*.
As he crept independent of doors
and fastenings, bohind the plastering
ana between partitions he found him
self at a window opening on the gran
ite coping. Some one had left the
window open a b|lt and the rat crept
out. . M- ' j
Two feet to the right of him was
the sleeping pigeon. The rat eyed
the ball of blue feathers closely and
silently. He crept nearer and nearer,
and he hesitated. It looked formid
ably but he was hungry.
Finally, with one quick snap, he
sunk his teeth into the bird's neck.
With a pitiful little squeak she
spread her wings and tried to fly.
Tho rat’s weight bore her down, but
her wings lifted her enough to raise
her from the coping and to carry her
over its edge-. The rodent kept gnaw,
j ing at her throat. He had sunk his
j teeth so deeply that he was carried
!; out into the air by tho bird.
Kighty feet above the pavemont the
wings fluttered a moment in tho effort
to support both bodies. At the height
of the second story the rat squealed
loudly and let go. He struck the
pavement heavily, crawled a little
way and lay still.
The bird came down gently as she
had lived. The coroner, in tho per
son of a collector of the night mail,
viewed both bodies at 2 o’clock a. m.
Riadn Brutality.
The Odessa (Russia) Gazette says:
“A few days ago a boy was found on
the railroad track terribly shaken up
and bruised. 'Be said he bod tried u
steal a ride on a train .going to Odesss
where he .tinted to join his Mine
mother. ‘ The conductors had found
him and thrown i him headlong fron
the car, which was running at ful
speed. The poor fellow died after i
few days of great suffering.

BURIAL OF PEONS.
Treated With Even Lesa Considera
tion Dead Than Alive.
When in Mexico four years ago,
.while in Leon, I made a visit to
Celaya. I will never forget the sight
they showed me when leaving. In
Mexico the peons have to pay $25
that is the lowest price to bury one of
their dead, and after three years the
bones are dug up and laid by in what
I would call the place of souls
so that they can have the room for
others. This place of souls is
about forty feet square, eighteen feet
high, three walls of brick, no roof.
Now, this inclosure was full of skulls,
legs and arms, and Friend Warburton
and another Mexican, his friend,
handled them as you would shoes in
a store.
I could not stand the taste and
smell. I imagined that I felt the taste
in my mouth for several days. '1
asked Mr. Heyser how it was that the
country did not provide a place for
the poor peons to rest. If they paid
$300 they could have a lot. where
could a peon, with 25 cents per day
and a family oflittle peons to feed
and clothe, save $300? The most of
the peons hire a coffin to be returned
for a small sum, but those who can
afford it buy a cheap black coffin.
Green Pood In Winter,
At no period of the year is it so im
portant that provision should be
made 'to furnish poultry with what
is understood by the term "green'’
food, as during the Winter months.
Our fowls are now restricted for the
most part, to close quarters and from
this time to March or April all the
ereen stuff our birds can obtain must
be artificially fed to them—in the
shape of cabbages, turnips, etc., or
hay stored for this purpose. The lat
ter is an excellent thing to vary the
food with and in the absence of vege
tables will be eaten eagerly either as
rowen or dry chopped hay.
For breeding stock, this green food
in some shape—in addition to the
morning cooked meal and the allow
ance daily of grains—is an absolute
necessity. Without it, says Poultry
World, the eggwedependon for hatch
ing will, in large proportion, prove in
fertile. For the health and thrift ol
adult birds, carried through the Win
ter, do not neglect this provision. De
prived, as the nSiised fowls are after
December, of the grass and herbage
they covet, and which all through the
Slimmer and Autumn they so readily
obtain in their open range, they very
quickly feel the lack ol green food, if
not provided with it as above suggest
ed.
Report on Lumpy-Jaw.
Dr. D. E. Salmon, Chief of the Bu
reau of Animal Industry, gives the re
sult of his recent investigation at
Chicago concerning the disease of cat
tle known as "lumpy-jaw.” The re
port shows splendid results from the
use of Pottassium iodide. Over 180
affected cattle, many quite seriously,
having large tumors about the head
and jaw, were treated and afterwards
100 of them slaughtered. A caieful
examination of the carcasses and in
ternal organs was made. Of the
100 animals killed 65 had been cured.
Dr. Salmon regards this test
as indicative of the value of the iodide
treatment* He answers the ob
jection raised as to the futility of ad
vising farmers to undertake the cure
of their cattle with medicine costing
$3 a pound, by stating that in the
experiments recently completed, not
even the worst cases received doses
of medicine costing over 7 cents daily,
and in no case was more than one
pound of medicine administered in
the treatment of any one animal.
The report shows that the disease is
jiot contagious. TWenty-one head
of healthy cattle were kept in the
closest contact with the diseased ani
mals experimented upon, even to the
extent of eating from the troughs
soiled with the matter discharged
from the tumors, without •showing
any signs of being affected by it.
The Egg-Keeping Experiment.
The eggs were all wiped when fresh
with a rag saturated with some anti
septic and packed tightly in salt,
bran, etc. Eggs packed during April
and May in salt, and which bad been
wiped with cotton-seed oil, (o which
had been added boracic acid, kept
from four to five months with a loss
of nearly one third, the quality of
those saved not being good. Eggs
packed in salt during March and
April after wiping with vaseline to
which salicilic acid had been added,
kept four and five months without
loss; the quality after four months be
ingmuch superior to limed eggs. These
packed eggs were all kept in barn cel
lars, the ordinary temperature o%
each box varying little from 66 de
grees F., and each box was turned
over once every two days. Little dif
ference was observed in the keeping of
the fertile or the infertileeggs, and no
difference was noticeable in the keep
ing qualities of eggs from different
fowls or from those on different ra
tions.—New York Experiment Station
Report. ■ ,
Cattle that are housed in tbs barn
yard and fed on a straw-stack will not
. be a source of much profit for the
. next few months. And the man who
i winters hia stock in this way is not a

We have heard farmers say that

I things.

- 1 Vi 1 "I
While walking down Broadway in
New York city about noon one day I
saw a crowd of people that almost
blocked the sidewalks on both sides of
the street They were watching a
very large safe which was being
hoisted by pulleys and ropes in front of
a high building, evidently intended to
be taken into the fifth story through
one of the windows. It was at the
fourth story and I stopped with the
crowd and watched its hardly per-|
cep! ible movement
Suddenly, without warning, the
ropes broke with pistol like report and
the safe shot down through the air
faster than my eyes could follow it
There was a great noise, the ground
under my feet shook, the crowd surged
backward, some falling under foot
Men and women screamed, and fright
ened horses plunged through the
crowd. Every one was either awed or
panic stricken by the presence of great
danger.
±ae saie naa crasnea tnrougn tne
pavement into a sub-sidewalk base
ment out of sight. The force of the
fall had broken the great flag stones
of the pavement for many feet on both
sides. The plate glass windows were
shattered and even the show cases on
the inside of the basement store were
ruined.
The fall had beep about forty feet.
It was a striking exhibition of the
power of the falling of a great weight.
At Gothenburg, Neb., they have a
direct fall fifty-three and a half feet of
a body of water heavier than that
enormous safe. It falls on a turbine
water wheel of the latest and best
make. This wheel supplies power
enough to run dozens of the largest
factories in the State of Nebraska, and
furnishes it at less expense than the
coal Costs to run one factory in Omaha.
The Commercial Club c,t Gothenburg
will promptly give information either
about the town, the surrounding coun
try, or the water power.
By electricity the power to drive the
largest mill in the State can be trans
mitted or taken from this wheel on a
wire not larger than a clothes line,
one, two, three, six or a dozen miles
away
A few years ago this was not possi
ble Power had then to be taken from
a shaft. Later a wire cable was suc
cessfully used for short distances, but
now by electricity power can be trans
mitted under ■ ground, under water,
elevated in the air, in any direction,
not only yards but miles.
We are passing from the time of
steam to the time of electricity.
Plans and estimates are now being
made to use electricity instead of
horses to draw the boats on the Erie
Canal from Buffalo to Albany.
Every reliable water power in
the country has been suddenly
given a value almost inestimable.
Either wood or coal is indispensable
in making steam. Nebraska has no
coal mines, no forests Cost of freight
makes wood not possible as a fuel and
coal very expensive. The place that
has a water power needs neither one.
The water power places will in the
future do the manufacturing, will' be
the best markets and rapidly make
the largest cities. The rush to Goth
enburg, which has had its power plant
completed but little more than a
month, shows how keenly alive the
Western people are to business advan
tages and commercial developments.
