the flight of ber daughter, Chr-sua, fif
teen years old. Investigation proved
that the day of the wedding and of the
father's departure for Albany had been
selected long in advance by the men
who were bent on the girl's abduction
and ruin. These men were Louis Mar
cott, a young man who had been visit
ing hi3 grandfather in the town, and
George Hoffman, the son of a carpenter
in Sharon Sprites. Mjrco4t se.ned to
have something of a hjpnolic fascina
tion for her and afU-r secretly associat
ing with him for soma time she agreed
to take ,000 from her parents to carrv
out his plans. They took the train for
Syracuse and later arrived at Detro.t
Here a dispute arcs between tba tso
men as to which had the better right to
the young girl. This led Hoffman to
take most of what remained of the stol
en money and return to New York where
he was arrested. The distracted fattier
caused the entire state to be searched
for his daughter, but his influence kept
the disgrace to his family from the gen
eral public. Iu less than two weeks be
spent a large sum on the search, the
fruitless character of which almost
killed both parents of the unfortunate
girl. The arrest of Huffman, however,
led to the fast that the otlier two were
headed toward Chicago where they ex
pected to stay at the Palmer house un
der the Dame of Curpeuter. Sheriff
Black, a personal friend of Mr. Jaclxtoc,
was st once authorized to come to this
city. He found the pair Monday and
yesterday morning a dispatch ordered
htm to return, and in the afternoon he
took his prisoners eastward. The child
ish looking fifteen-year-old girl is in so
pitifully a broken down condition after
her experience of but two weeks with
her y Jung abductor, as to be almost un
realizable. Blaine Adfatrtt to UU Declaration.
Nev York, May 11. Postmaster Man
ley of Augusta, Me., one of Secretary
Blaina's most faithful followers, hai
been in Washington for several days aud
has beld a number of consultations with
Mr, Blaine. Before leaving for home,
Mr. Manley, according to a Washington
correspondent, said: "There is nothing
in this new talk about Mr. Blaine and
the presidency. Whan he wrote his let
tar of last February to Clarkson, in
which he stated that his name would
not go before the convention for the
nomination, be meant it. He has not
changed his mind since then. He says
frankly to those who speak to him on
the subject that he feels better than he
has for a long time and he knows of uo
reason why he should not live for yeare,
but he is conscious that be could not en
dure a great and ununual strain. He
does not intend to place himself in a po
sition where such a strain could cot be
avoided."

, Rosltm, Wash., May 11. Fifty miner
lost their lives by an explosion in the
Northern Pacific coal mine here this
afternoon. The number of dead can
not be accurately given, but it is I e
lieved that all those in the mine at the
time of the explosion were killed.
' 1 he work of rescue was begun prompt
ly and up to nine o'clock ten mutilated
and blackened corpses had been re
moved from the mine. The explosion
is supposed to hare been caused by an
accumulation of tire damp.
It ia not definitely known as to the
number of men who were in the vicinity
f the disaster, but it is believed that
between forty -ive and fifty men were
in the three levels that were affected by
the explosion. Lirge relief forces are
at work and at this time two bodies
have been recovered. The a men were
working nearest the opening and at
some distance from the point when it i
supposed the explosion osourieJ. Mott

and tLe secrtt rae of Arthur Pyne- j
court
"You h.iTe often asked to see the
haunted chamber,' " he says: -wlir not
come and visit it row? It iiu"t much
to see. you know; but still, in a ghostly
sense, it is, I suppose, in'.erestin;.
. "Lrt us make a jmrty and go togeth
er," supgesa 1'ora, enthusi stically
rl.isped her hands her favorite method
of showing fal emotiou of any kind.
She is determined to have her part in
the programme, and is equally deter
mined to that Florence fchall go no
where alone w ith Sir Adrian.
"U'liat acapital idea!" puts in Arthur
Oynecourt, coming up to Miss Iel
iiiaine, and specially addressing her
with all tlie air ot a rightful owner.
-Charming," murmurs a young lady
standing by; and so tlie question is set
tled. "It will be rather fatiguing journey,
you know," says Captain Uincwood,
conlUlentially, to Fthel Yilliers. "It's
an awful lot of stairs; I've been there,
so 1 know all about it it's worse tliau
the tread milf
"iiave you been there too?" demands
Miss Ethel saucily, glancing at him
from under her long lashes.
"Jfot yet," answers the captain, with
a little grin. "But, I say, don't go
will you?"
"1 must; I'm dying to see it," replies
Ethel. "You needn't come, you know;
I dare say 1 shall be able, to get on with
out you for half an hour or so."
"I dare say you would get on uncom
monly well without me forever," re
toris the captain rather gloonily. To
himself he confesses moodily that this
girl with the auburn hair and the blue
eyes has the power of taking the "'curl
out of him" whensoever she wishes.
"1 believe you are afraid of the bogies
hidden in this secret chamber, and so
don't care to come," says Mis Villiers
tauntingly.
"I know something else I'm a great
deal more afraid of," responds the
gallant captain meaningly.
"Me? ' she asks innocently, but cer
tainly coquettishly. "Oh, Captain
lMngwood" in a tone of mock injury
"what an unking speech! Now I
konw you look upon me in the light of
au ogress, or a witch, or something
equally Bread! ul. Well, as I have the
name of it, I may as well have the
gain of it, and so I command you to
attend me to the 'haunted chamber.' "
" i'ou order I obey," says the captain.
" 'Call and I follow I follow, though
I die! " After which quotation he ac-
companies her toward the house in the
wake of Dora and Sir Adrian, who has
been pressed by the clever window into
her service.
Florence and Arthur Dynecourt fol
low them, Arthur talking gayly, as
though determined to ignore the fact
that be is thoroughly un welcome to his
companion; Tioreuce, with head erect
and haughty footsteps and eyes care
fully averted.
i Past the ball, through the corridor,
up the staircase, through the galleries,
along more comders they go, laughing
and talking eagerly, until they come at
last to an old and apparently much
disu:ed part of the house.
! Traversing more corridors, upon
which dust lies thickly, they come at
last to a small iron-bound door that
blocks the end of one passage,
i "Now we really begin to get near to
it," aays Sir Adrian encouragingly,
turning, as he always does, when op
portunity offers, to address himself
solely to Florence.
i "Don't you fqel creepy-creepy ?'' asks
Ethel Villiers, with a smothered laugh,
looking up at Captain IUngwood.
' "Then Sir Adrian pushes open the
door, revealing a steep flight of stone
steps that leads upward to another
door above. This doer, like the lower
one, ia bound with iron. f
This to the tower," explain Sir
Adrian, still acting as cicerone to the
tmall party, who. look with intemt
aronn dthtm BrsTalbot affecting ner
vousness, clings closely to Sir Adrian's
arm. Indeed aba to debating In ber own
mind whether it would be effective or
otherwise to aabakU into graceful
swoon within his arms. "Yonder to
ilbsdeor of tba chamber," continues
JBr AaMaa. "Coana, tot oa go op to It"
They all asound the last flight of
stone stair; and presently their host
opens the; door, and reveals to them
wnawver mvsteries may lie beyond.
He enters first, and they all follow him,
but, as if suddenly recollecting some
ituporurt point, he turns, and calls
loudly to CapUiu IUngwood nut to let
the tioor sbut behind him.
-Thre U a peculiar spring in the
lock." be explains a moment later;
-vt if the door slammed to, we should

Ss;- s; to remember my duty,"
Capuin liingwood, planting his
"Mc against Hie ope" uoor lest bv auy
afira it should shut
Ti: chamber is round, and has, in
stead of windows, three narrow
apertures in the walls, through which
can be obtained a glimpse of the sky,
but of nothing else. These apertures
are just large enough to admit a man's
hand. The room is without furniture
of any description, and on the boards
the dark stains of blood are distinctly
visible.
"Dynecourt, tell them a story or two,"
calls out Kingwood to Sir Adrian.
"They won't believe it is veritably
haunted unless you call up a ghost to
frighten them."
13ut they all protest in a body that
they do not wish to hear any ghost
stories, so Sir Adrian laughingly re
fuses to comply with liingwood 9 re
quest "Are we far from the other parts of
the house V a3ks Florence at length,
who had been examining some writing
on the walls.
"So far that, if you were immured
here, no cry, however loud, could pene
trate the distance," replies Sir Adrian.
"lrou are as thoroughly removed from
the habitable parts of the castle as if
you were in the next county."
"How interesting!" observes Dora,
with a little simper.
"The sevants are so afraid of this
room that they would not venture here
even by daylight," Sir Adrian goes on.
You can see how the dust of years is
on it. One might be slowly starved to
death here without one's friends being
a bit the wiser."
He laughs as he says this, but long
afterward, his words come back to his
listeners' memories, (illiug their breasts
with terror and despair.
"1 wonder you don't have this dan
gerous lock removed," says Captain
Kingwood, "It is a regular trap. Some
day you'll be sorry for it" r
Prophetic words!
"Yes; I wish it were removed," re
sponds Florence, with a strange quick
shiver.
Mr Adrian laughs.
"Why, that is one of the old tower's
greatest charms," he says. "It be
longs to tlie dark ages, and suggests all
sorts of horrible possibilities. This
room would be nolhiug without its
mysterious lock."
At this moment Dora's eyes turn
slowly toward Arthur Dynecourt She
herself hardly knows why, at this par
ticul time, she should look 'at hi m, yet she
feels that some unaccountable fascina
tion is compelling her gaze to encounter
his. Their eyes meet As they do so,
Dora shudders and turns deadly pale
There is that in Arthur Dyneeourfs
dark and sullen eyes that strikes her
cold with terror and vague forbodings
of evil. It is a wicked look that over
spreads the man's face a cruel, im
placable look that seems to freeze her
as she gazes at him spell-bound.
Slowly, even while she watches him,
she sees him turn his glance from her
to Sir Adrian in a meaning manner, as
though to let her know that the vile
though that is working in his brain
and is betraying itself on his face is in
tended for him, not her. And yet, with
this too, he gives her silently to under
stand that, if she shows any treachery
toward him, he will not leave it unre
warded.
uweo, rngntenea, trembling at
what she knows not, Dora staggers
backward, and, laying a hand upou the
wall beside her, tries to regain her self
possession. The others are all talking
together, she is therefore unobserved.
She stands, still panting and pallid, try
ing to collect her thoughts.
Only one thing comes olearly to her,
filling ber with loathing of herself and
an unnamed dread it is that, by her
own double-dealing and falseness to
ward Florence, she has seemed to enter
into a compact with this man to be a
companion in whatever crime he may
decide upon. His very look teems to
Implicate her, to drag her down with
him to bia level. She feels herself
chained to him bis partner in a vile
conspiracy. And what further adds
to the horror of the situation is the
knowledge that she knows herself to be
blindly igorant of whatever plans be
may be farming.
After a few seconds she rouses herself,
and wins back some degree of com
posure. It to of course a mere weak
ness to believe herself in the power of
Arthur Dynecourt, she tries to convince
herself. Uatono more than any other
ordinary acquaintance. If Indeed she
has helped him a little in his efforts to
secure the lave of Florence, there was
no gnat barm in that, though of courM

Walking Flail.
The ability of a full to retain its vi
tality out of water depends in a great
degree upon its ability to keep the
delicate tissues of its gills wet, and
this ability is increased in a few
species, by means of a peculiar con
struction in the head, in which water
is retained after the fish is taken out
of the river or lake; the gills being
kept wet by percolation from this
reservoir. Some such species have also
the power of using the lower fins as

gifts of nature to pass over land from

the wide, sandy plain which bounds
the sea coast in the neighborhood of
I'anaga he witnessed a singular over
land migration of lkan Puyu, from
chain of fresh water lagoons toward
second chain of lagoons, about 10C
yards distant.
The fish were in groups of from
three to seven, and were pursuing thei
way la a direct line, at the rate of
nearly a mile an hour. When dis
turbed they turned and made w, effort
to make their way back to the lagoon
they bad left, and would vory soon
have reached it, had they not bten se.

the teller of the story, and, who looked
upon the inngration as an ordinary
occurrence at that season of th;

Upward of twenty were thus taken
during a walk of about a half mile
and no doubt many more could havs
been obtained had the Malays been
given time.

tlemen here that the recent proclama

was intended to alure the big ranchmen
back into a country where they could be
easily killed. No faith whatever, is ex
pressed by the prisoners at Fort Itus
sell in the alleged efforts of the authori
'iesat Buffalo to capture Wellman's
murderers. They deem it possible, how
over, that the Masonio order, of which
the murdered man was a member, may
