T IS Inconcclva-
bio to me. Do yo:i
ncttmlly propose
jdo spend your life
flxctv, among these
egraded cron
tures?"
"I don't like to
hear you speak in
that way of my
people, Violet
They nro not ile
graded, but lion
est, faithful toll
crs. I believe
them to be Mil
rerely attached to
inc. and 1 have a
profound Interest In tlicin and their Mm
pic lives, Yen, I expect t shall iiIwiijb live
near the mines and keep an eye on them
I do not believe that the owner of large
property Interest should absent himself
from them and lenvu affairs In the hands
of subordinates."
The girl turned her beautiful, Insolent
face toward the row of miners' cottagis
which dotted the hillsides above them, and
after staring through her gold rimmed
lorgnette at the tiny habitations a mo
nient, dropped it and said contemptuously
"Fancy!"
Tho two walked on In silence. Tom Mid
dlcton was too hurt to speak. This was not
tbo first altercation he had had with bin
flnncec, Miss Violet Vancouver, on this
subject. Itoth were iiosltivu in their opln
ions. Knch tegurded the uucstion from
standpolulH as opposite as tlie two poles.
Tom felt n hopeless sort of rage as he
glanced from under Ills eyelids ut the fair,
proud, contemptuous fncu under the big
white parasol at his side,
And as tliey walked, it vague idea, which
of late had puzzled him more than once,
crept again In his mind. Could they a'
far apart in their convictions and opinions
as two planets could they ever be happy
together? Ho tried to fancy himself mar
ried to Violet. He. saw her up at his beau
tlful house on the hill yonder a queen in
her drawing room. Hut when be tried to
fancy her going about from cottage to cot
tage, looking after the sick and feeble ten
ants when hu attempted for one moment
to imagine Violet as a ministering angel,
bo smiled cynically Miss Vancouver re
garded him coldly
"1 am charmed that you amuse your
elf," she saiil,
"1 was wondering what you would do In
case of an explosion in the mines," said
Tom. with surprising candor
The carriage which they had left for
their walk was approaching. Violet put
up her baud, dainty in Its soft suede glove,
and signaled the coachman. 'I am going
back to the house," she said haughtily
"Don't trouble yourself to come with me.
No doulit you are needed 'down at the
mines," and before Tom could recover
from this sudden sally Violet had beaten
a masterly retreat.
Miss Vancouver was a thorough Anglo
maniac. Tom Mlddletou, to whom she
had been betrothed for six months, was
on the coutrary a typical American, be
lieving in his country, its customs, laws
and life. He had his own ideas ou the re
lations between capital and lalwr, and be
lleved that every employer could Indlvldu
ally do much to lessen the antipathy be
tween the classes. Therefore lie preferred
to manage the Spitfire iron mines, of
which he was part owner, to trusting af
fairs to another and idling his time away
in tho customary pursuits of )onng men
of wealth.
His firmness on this point had vexed and
annoyed Miss Vancouver beyond descrip
tion. Repeatedly had she urged Tom to
-delegate his duties to an overseer, come to
the city where she lived and lead "the life
of a gentleman," as she was pleased to
put it. Hut Mlddletou was exaspcrutlugly
stubborn and refused to leave the mines.
Violet and her mother had been visiting
the Mlddletons through the lovely mouth
of June, anil Tom had made one more
futile attempt to interest her in bis alms
and his life, but without avail. Violet
drove back to the house this morning to
sulk in stately fashion, while Tom walked
slowly dowu to his office at the mouth of
the mine, his hands in his pockets, his
eyes upon the ground, thinking.
He was still thinking as he entered the
ofllce thinking of that inflexible little
blond head, turned so haughtily away
from him as It vanished from his sight.
Possibly it was because he was thinking
of Violet's still neck anil delimit back hair
that ho Buddeuly noticed another head
bent over the big ledger on the tall desk.
It wan quite as shapely as bis lianeee's.
The hair was a deep bronze, and grew
close to the temples, rippled Just over the
ears and was isihlieil up at the back to
show a very white, soft, pliant looking
neck. Tom looked at that neck thought
fully. It wasn't a bit stilf . It had a do
Jlghtfully womanly and yielding appear
anco, and the hair above it was soft and
silky and seemed not to have a loo disa
greeable will of Its own The owner of
this neck and back hair lifted her head
and turned her face as she heard Middle
ton's step. A light leaped into the gray
eyes and a smile parted the sensitive lips
"Good morning, Mr .Mlddletou."
Somehow the daily salutation from his
pretty liookkeeper had never before fallen
quite so musically ou Tom's bearing. The
gentle voice rested him, for Violet's con
temptuousacceuts had tired him woefully.
"Good morning. MlssUlnytou," he said.
"Any news?"
"There waa a delegation from the men
here this morning," Miss Clayton answered.
"There were Siuithsou, .Jenkins, Preston
mid that terrible beast Jim Howling, who
wan Intoxicated and ugly."
"What did they want?" asked Middle
ton carelessly, preparing to oH-n his mail.
"They seena-d very excited, almost
angry," replied Mliuic:iitytoii, jiml' nll
they should) return uIkjiii noon and hoped
you would lie here."
Mlddletou made no answer, but was soon
absorU-d In bis (.orresondeiiie No sound
was heard hut the scratch of MIkh Clay

a ponderous bell iiImivc the olllce sounded

Is the 1st of July and nothing done. They
think they'te waited long enough. D'ye,

"Is this the demand of thu men," nsked ,
Mlddletou quietly, "oris It Jim Howling'
demand?"
Smlthsoti spoke up eagerly, "We all
know, Mr. Mlddletou, that ybu 'always do
what's right by us and"
"Shut up your head," roared Dow-
Hug.
"There that will do," said Mlddletou,
still with that same ominous calmness.
"That's just enough to show me that you.
Howling, and jou alone, are responsible
for this affair. Now 1 refuse absolutely
to listen to you or hold any parley with
you. I want you to leave my olllce at once.
I will talk with you, Isiys, In a moment."
"1 won't go," snarled Don ling
"Oh, yes you will," and before the llvc
rufllau could realize what was transpiring
lie was syl.cd by tho white faced athlete
mid hurled sprawling on the ground In
front of the olllce
"Vlhllglvelt to him, Mr Mlddletou,"
shrieked a high, shrill voice, and leaping
with joy at Dowliug's discomfiture, came
the enfant terrlb'e of the nelghboihood,
Trickled, tow headed, Impish "Hub" Clay
ton, brother of the pretty bookkeeper and
supported by his orphan sister's earnings,
"give It to him, I'm with you," and he
squared olT ami doubled up his puny fists
at Howling, who staggering to his feet
hurled a tornado of curses at tho master vt
the mines
"I'll pay you for this," lie growled as he
retreated. "I'll pay you and give you coin
pound Interest curse you," then slunk
away pursued by the hoots and contumely
of "Hub" Clayton and his followers.
There was a short conference between
I Mlddletou and his men which must bav

hand at parting and with smiling faces '

their employer's health, lu xlnt of fact,
Mlddletou learned that Howling bad instl
uated the scheme, taunted and dared the
others to make these demands and Insisted
oubelugthelrspokestu.nl When Middle
ton showed them the letter from thu archi
tect whose plans for repairing the miners'
cottages ho had accepted, when be told
them of the preparations he was making
for the approaching Fourth of July cole
hratlou, they burst into cheers and then
begged Ills pardon for having been tern
porarlly led astray
When, after closing the door behind tils
visitors and lelaxlug a lilt from the strain
lie had been under, Mlddletou turned back
to his desk lie felt a timid touch oiihlsariu
lie looked upstraight ilitou palrof lustrous
gray eyes swimming with tears.
"Why. my child." he exclaimed, 'what
is the matter?"
"That dieailful man," she faltered; "he
will do something to you, I am afraid "
"Nonsense, my dear," said Mlddletou,
patting her arm In quite a fatherly man
tier, "don't cry Von are upset, and I don't
wonder."
"Hut, please," Hess said tremulously,
'please look out for that beast, and and
carry a pistol or something. His fate
was murderous."
That night at dinner Mlddletou wa
strangely preoccupied. Somehow hu could
not banish the events of the morning, and
through the light and the llowers about :
the table, in the sparkling amber in his
wineglass, he saw that sweet, troubled
face and the big gray eyes swimming in
tears.
After dinner Violet came out upon the
veranda where Tom sat smoking and de
posited her llully draperies, her laces and
frills upon a bamboo lounge. She wore
her most aristocratic expression while a
hardening alxiut the pretty lips betokened
an oncoming contest.
"Tom, dear." she drawled, "what ' this
new absurdity of which I hear?"
"Absurdity?" repeated Tom, "I don't
know, Violet, to what you refer."
"Is It possible that you propose to give
the miners a Fourth of July celebration?"
"Indeed I do. Honflres races, rockets
a rattling good old fashioned hurrah. And
every little chap is to have punk and flru
crackers and every little girl torpedoes."
"You are only spoiling these creatures,"
began Violet, when to her amazement
Tom rose and towered over her. looking
very big, very aggressive, very masterful.
"Once, and for all, Violet," he said
coolly, "will you have the goodness to stop
nagging me about my business? I will

not tolerate it I shall do what I think
best for the com foit and happiness of my
people Their lives are hard enough, God
knows "
"Ob, as jou llkv,"huid Violet, shrugging
her shoulders, "only don't fancy that I
shall ever taku any Interest in your absurd
Quixotism," ami trailing her laces after
her she swept into the house
For the next two daj's an atmosphere of
expectancy hung over and around the
Spitfire mines The women gossiped from
their doors, the miners collected In groups
after hours and discussed the treat in
store, whlie the children shrieked and ran
hither and yon in very wantonness of
ecstasy. Wnen big boxes were unloaded
and stored away in the rear of .Mlddleton's
ofllce, and It was whispered that those
Imjxcs contained firecrackers, pluwheels,
torKsloes anil Roman caudles, it was with
dlllluulty that the small boy kept from
bursting with Joy. Mlddletou caused .the
news ttfls.' circulated that on the iiibriiiug
of the Fourth all the children were to pre
sent themselves at his olllce, each to re
ceive Ids or her share of the ssiils.
Probably no one was more electrified by
this statement than "Huh" Clajtou. One
of the most lovable bojs in the world, he
yet was the emlNnllmeiit of mischief The
deviltry he could not uiueoft was poor In
. V

lie, long sillleilng sister fell Upon him,
shook him, put him to bed and told him
that she should ask Mr. Mlddletou as a
personal favor to herself not to give lilin
any ammunition on the morrow
This crisis was so totally unexpected
that "Hub" forgot to roar He sank back
Uwn the pillows and turned pale through
Jits freckles. After he had recovered from
the shock n bit befell Inn brown study
The resuil was a smile, which would have
donecicdlt loallist class lleud "Hub"
took his bread and milk nnd his sister's
iccture so gently that her heart relented,
and when she retired for thu night she bail
decided sho would not ask that personal
favor.
"Hub" did not sleep. Ile had taken a
imp In tho cat ly evening and was now quite
wideawake mid teady for business. Ile
waited until Bessie's soft brenthlugnssuicil
him that she slept, then he arose and
quickly dressed himself, cautiously unfas
tened the front door and set out HcClcpt
along In the shadows as he crossed the
street to Mlddleton's olllce. For "Hub"
was out with the nefarious Intent of bur
glarl.lug. Ile knew of a window on the
side of the olllce the catch of which was
broken and wfilch could bo easily shovid
j up. lie had heard Hessle say that Middle
ton had been busy all the evening opening
the packages of llicwnil.s
I Up went the window at Ills first touch,
I and in climbed the young scapegrace
I The moonlight streaming In showed lilm
the prize, and he fell greedily to work.
Ills pockets were soon ciammed and he
1 was about to retreat, when he heaid a
1 sound that made eery tow hair on Ids
head stand Upright a nolseat the window
i he had left open Thu hoy slipped behind
a pile of packing boxes, and icciiug out
saw a inan climb in tho window It u
Jim Howling!
"Hub" retained bis presence-of inlndsiif
flclently notlo jell
Howling prow lid noiselessly about, trv
lug desks and safe and bestowing wills
pered curses upon the huge pllo of file
works lu the remote corner. "Ile Is a
thief, too," thought "Hub." with a stuldci
twinge of conscience, nn I quietly and with
tiemhllng lingers testored his ill gotten
gains to a bo beside him.
Suddenly there was a light, quirk step
outside, and the click of a key in thu olllce
door Howling rushed past the trembling
lad Into the rear room, whore thu huge
vault was situated
The outside door opened and Mlddletou
entered He struck a match, lighted the
gas, took olT his hat and ran Ills lingers
through his thick brown hair
"I couldn't go to bed," he said aloud
"for I knew I shouldn't sleep. What am
I going to do? It's a pu..lu. I say over
anil over, 'the honor of tho Mlddletons.'
but It's empty of sound and doesn't console
me. Well, I believe I'll look over those
books tonight I must do something to
tire uijself out and make me sleep."
Ile lighted a cigar anil started toward
the door which led to the vault. Suddenly
he stopped.
"What in heaven's name am I about?
Going to thu vault with a lighted cigar'
I'm afraid I did a careless thing in telling
them to store that giant powder in the
vault. Oh. well, ltdoii't matter; the mag
a.lne will be repaired Ilia few days, and
then, If I haven't blown myself up In the
meantime-through my carelessness. I will
have It leinovcd at once."
Speaking thus, Mlddletou passed by the
boy hidden there, who put out a tleinbling
hand to warn him. but he didn't see the
weak assistance.
"Hub" heard the combination click and
presently Mhhlleton came back with the
books In his anus. He laid them on the
desk, opened them and set to work.
"Hub" was wondering how hu was going
to get out of thu scrape, when there slid
denly stole by lilm with the stealthy tread
of a wolf a man with a face so terrible, so
awful In Its hatred that the boy with dilll
culty repressed a scream, I here was a
red glare liefoie "Hull's" frightened ejes
through which he saw Howling deal Mid
illeton a powerful blow on thu back of Un
bend with something bright and shining.
Mlddletou dropped like a log to thu floor
Howling snarled over him.
"My turn now, jou high and mighty
dog. I've got je now and I'll pay my debt
right here, and you shall have your com
pound inteiest. I won't leave a trace of
ye. I'll blow you and your olllcu to hell
Oh, I'll give them some Fourth of Julj
llreworks they'll never forget."
"Hub" could neer tell how he liven
through the next few minutes. With eyes
fairly starting from ills head hu watched
Howling enter the vault and knock tin
head out of a barrel of powder and insert
thuund of a fuse.
At last all was ready, the fuse lighted.
Howling turned out thu gas nnd crept
through tho window
Ho was gone I
Out from behind thu boxes burst the
frightened boy who had completely lost
ills wits. He bent over Mlddletou, mid
with his weak arinsstrovolo lift him. Ills
first thought was to drag Mlddletou from
the building. As well try .to movo the
vault yonder.
Then through thu moonlight across the
square, gasping, sobbing, stumbling, fled
thu boy. Through thu open door, Into liN
sister's room, upon her bed hu Hung him
self. "Hessl Hess"' hohhileked in iigouj
Two minutes later, barefooted, her long
hair streaming over her shoulders, she
knelt U'shlothemau she loved. She thrust
her girlish arms beneath Mlddletou and
iifted him to her breast asa mother gatheis
iier child.
"The bell, 'Hub,' thu belli" sho stum
mcred,
"Hub" caught tho rope, and out upon
tho soft midsummer night rang the awful
clamor. The bell fairly shrieked Its fright
fill tidings "Murder! murder!" leaped
from its iron throat.
And when thu half dressed miners came
hurrying from their homes with terror
stricken facts they saw a strange
sight.

Their master lay before his olllce door on

"Yes," whimpered "Hub," "she did I
duuuiiiiow she did It, but sho did."
"Hut tho fuse," cried another. "For
God's sake, somebody cut I ho fusel"
Hess lifted her haggard face. "Oh, I cut
It," she said simply, "before I brought
him out "
Toui Mlddletou did not die. A splendid
constitution, unimpaired by excesses,
brought lilm through n dangerous illness
Flo emtio back to thu olllce two months
later, pale, hollow eyed and thin. Ills
people llockcd about lilm, and many were
thu blessings showered upon him both by
rough miners and weeping women.
After Mlddletou bad told the crowd that
the long delaj vd Fourth of Julyeclobra
t ton should occur thu next evening, and
tho hanpv throng had dispersed, hu turned
toward iJcss Clajtou, who stood at her
post smiling, bill with tears In her eyes.
"Come here, Hessle," ho said gently,
holding out his thlu hand. Ile had never
called her Hessle before. Sho went slowly
and timidly to hlin
llediew her to lilm, and putting both
aims about her said.
"My btave Utile girl."
She trembled and blushed.
"Mj darling'" ho said passionately.
"No, no," she eiled, stalling away from
him, "jou must not speak like that I
tntist not hear jou."
"Yes, jou must," he retorted, with his
old lite. "1 love loli-I think 1 have loved
you a long time Hess jou must bo my
wife."
"Hut Miss Vnncoucr?" said tho gill
gent Ij .
"Miss Vancouver made a great mistake
when she aciepted me," said .Mlddletou
gravely. "She has icullcd her mistake.
Oh, Hess, mj (hilling, thank Cod, thelitis
nothing between us and happiness,"
A few moments later he raised her
blushing face from his shoulder and said,
"Now, deal est, when shall wo ho mauled?"
"I think, Tom," she said demurely, "t hat
I should like to bo married next l'ouitli of

"Why not this Fourth," bo urged.
"This FiMiith Is past," sho answeied.
"Hut Its substitute Is at hand," he cried.
"Hess, jou must many inu now. I cannot
wait a j ear."
And so it came to pass even as hu had
spoken, and the miners anil their families
hud an unexpected feature In their cele
