BY THE OLD OPENING.
Tho Risk Tony Took in Rotunilnjj
Uto Lost Diamond.
Not very long ago thnro lived In tho
beautiful Wyoming Valley hi Pennsyl
vania a Itoy named Tony Tumlyn, or,
rather, tin lived at tht head of a great
ravine, which cut It May down Into tho
valley through stoop mutintnluN.
Tho house in which Tony lived was a
lilt I one-story cabin of two room, ono
of thotn with little In tt besides a ci)k
tovo anil tuhlc, tho other with notlilnif
In tt njwit twohedM. Porhapt I ou(jht
to aay that thin was tho Iiouho that tho
hoy ate und alopt in, for he Utnl out of
doom, nmt wo did IiIn Mater AjM)llotila,
oxeejit when (tho wan needed to help her
mother.
In tho gray, rocky lottoin of tho ra
vine ran a fletvo little white brook that
never hud time to make itwelf deep, hut
foamed nnd frothed and sputtered all thn
way down to thn valley.
On the rltfht rono t'tie wall of thn ra
vine, aloplng a little, ami richly green
with hemlock, and on the loft a very
MlranffA night lndeMl, a "iitralffht-up"
wall of ycllowUh rock alntut tlfty feet
high, ohoqunretl with a row of (entreat
U:k aquarcs. These Miuarea are great
Vpenlnga high enough to aerve a door
t Mtrava forthetalleatglanU.andlf yountnp
'
4 lualdo your loot win fall upon a a mjim,
flat altnoat aniooth black floor extending
back many hundred of feet, and disap
pearing Into tho blackest darkneaa. If
you look up thero Is a rmooth, ahlny
. black celling, and aupportlng this won
derful celling at widn Intervals, am
enormous black pillars twenty-five feet
In circumference, spreading out a little
aa they tuch tho ruvf full fifteen feet
above your head.
If you will look closely, you will aee
that not only aro floors, ceilings and
pillar all of ono material, but they are
also actually In one piece. Thn material
Is coal, and the oenlngs am tho en
trance to a long workod-ut coal mine.
If you were to go to-day to visit a
modern working roal mine, the only
part you could see alnivc ground would
be thn breaker a huge, wooden struc
ture containing machinery for hauling
up and breaking tho coal, and you would
have to go Into the earth some hundreds
of feet, by means of an elevator, (o find
thn place where thn coal comes from.
Hut many years ago, when people first
bejran to look fur coal, they often found
It "cropping nut" at tho surface, and at
this particular spot where Tony and
"Ap" lived, there cropped out one of tho
largest veins of coalever found twenty
four feet, thick. Ko It came about that
this rocky hill was all dug out and
turned Into an anthracite palace.
Over on the other side of tho hill was
aew, vertical opening or "shaft," and
very morning Tony's father, who was
a miner, wont down tbn ravlno and
around the bam of tho bill a distance
of a mile and a half to bis work; but
there) was a much shorter way If one
caoae to take It, and that was througk
the "old opening."
Following tho Inng-desorU-d "gang
ways" for a quarter of a mile or so, you
would come out upon thn great smutty
breaker, with Ita roar, and ita dust, and
Ita calm-pile. However, this was re
garded as a dangerous thing to do, and
tho children were told repeatedly nnver
to attempt It, butthls caution was hardly
necessary, for If ever they ventured back
among the dark pillars, the blackness
was so dense, and the feeling of damp
ness so tispleaaant, that they were glad
enough to nil into the sunlight again.
All in and about thn great doorways
of thn old opening, and among the stone
chips of tho slippery ledge outside, were
, found pieces containing "Impreswlons"
of ferns and other leaves that had flour
Isbeit green and fresh many years be
fore, and dying, had left their sculptured
s-ertralw npcm thi rocks.
asTacr were also other pieces covered
wild what aright be Oiought the molds
in which dainty fluted ea-hells had
le ensvk Again there would come to
lifht avail sections of tree-stes&s. pith,
sjbaod and bark all tnrned to stoae.
sVfnalde were other straagw and Uanti
JHil thlngm chunks of ecvl coats-d with
isvulnhar. that looked alscost as If they
were crested with fold other chocks
wavered with what sewssed like tor
Btatosl aoinu of ser wad moat hesatl-

their nalors plsyiag late savh ohr as
aerfertly as oa aay asastisha tail, aasj
tF
ssahitur oaw hslksve that la trwt
which God aH la taa
len somehow preserved In the InmeU
of thn earth, like thn shells snd ferns
and flowers, fur future ages to see and
enky.
Tony and hi sister sxnt hours look.
Ing for these fossils, and one corner of
their bedroout was pllcnl up with a sl
lection that would have delighted the
hearts of gi-ologlstorcurlolly hunters.
Many such curliMlty-hunters came to !
the old olH'tilntf nvnrv summer car-
rlage-Uads of them gaily dressrsl, and J
the two children wore always on hand
wuen they heard thn roll of wheels
coming up tho narrow road of the rat Ine,
for tho tourist always wanted folls,
and If they could not find enough to suit
them, Tony or Ap would bring the l,et
treasures from their stores, and offer
them for sale
Ono day there came up a carriage-load
of unusually lino joplo, Tho gentlo
men wore their sUx-Vlm nutsldn their
trotlser-i. tut An t.it.1 tn.r fwil)i. -..!
their coats worn short and lelted like
Tony's Sunday one. Tho ladle were
beautifully dressed, and somn of them
wore, little jacket like the men's coiu.
Ono of these ladles was so pretty that
Tony and Apliwt thlr hearts to her,
and all tho young men In tho ptrty
seemed to be already In tho same condi
tion of mind.
This young lady was eager to mVo a
collection of the fossils, and had put on
thick (toots, and Ixiforo Itoglnnlng to
pick over tho shale she pulled off her
gloves. If there was any hand In tho
world whiter than hers, at least Tony
and Ap had never seen It, and on ono of
her lovoly lingers was something they
could not keep their eyes sway from a
ring with a stone In It a stone of -Hitlit
whiteness, orVr w hosn surface pla) id the
most lovely colors, like those In the
rnlnlmw coal, only much more soft snd
rudlant, nnd seeming tut her to float
around It than U bo really in the stone
Tho young lady who wore this ring
was very energetic- ami ventuiesome.
She dug among the shale with her pret
ty pink fingernail, atonal on tiptoe to
pick tho sulphur off the walls, and even
went bock us far a tho third row of pil
lars. Tony saw her starting off In that di
rection ami followed her, for she looked
as If she meant to walk straight through
tho mine. Ono of tho young men fol
lowed, too, looking as It ho meant to go
wherever shn did.
When she saw him she jumped ttohlnd
a pillar und protended to hide, and then
tho young man ran around tho other
sldo of tho pillar, and Tony heard a
sound of tussling and laughter, and out
ran tho young lady trying to get her
hand awuy from her companion.
At length she did gel It free, nnd they
both walked hack to thooMnlng togeth
er, outside of which. In tho broad sun
light, the rest of their parly, with Ap to
help, worn still fossil-hunting. Tony
Stayed behind, for his eye had Just light
ed on some' tine stM'ctmcus of ralntow
coal, which ho thought ho would gather
for tho pretty lady, and so etjgroswd did
hn liecomn that, when at length ho
looked up, all the tourists had gone, and
Ap stood alone In onn of tho great door
waya calling to him.
As hn stooped to pick Up one last
piece of coal, ho saw a little glittering
object at some distance before him. Ho
picked it up, and in a moment saw that
It was thn ring with thn ralnlKiw stone!
Thn young man must have pulled It
of? thn pretty lady's hand when she was
trying to get away from him.
Tony's first thought was: "What a
tressurel" and hn ran eagerly to show It
to his sister, but before hn reached her
tho thought quickly came, "1 must re
turn It;" and a third thought quickly
followed: "How can tt lt returned?"
When Ap saw the ring she gate a lit
tle scream, and understood at once thai
thn lady had dropped It
"Hun, Tony, run" she exclaimed:
"they've stsrU.l down alresdy "
Tony ran a short distance, but soon
catno back, saying the carrlsgn had got
too far ahead; he could nevurovertake it.
"Perhaps thn lady will mis the ring,
and come back for It," ssld be
"No," said Ap, "h won't, for she put
her glove on l-efore she got In the
wagon, and she'll never sen that thn
ring Isn't on her hand till she gel
home,"
Tony was thinking hard.
"There's only one way," ho ssld. at
length. "I can got through tho u-.en!ng
before they reach the brekker, und I'm
goin'todolt.'
"O, Tony, don't, don't. "cried Ap, hold
ing on to htm. "Whal'll mother ssy and
father? You know they've said you
mustn't never do such a thing, you
might get lost or kilt."
"Ap," said Tony, "I'm roln todo It,
that's sll there is. You just run up abd
tell mother what took me. That pretty
lady's got to have her ring."
"You'll carry a IsnUtrn, won't you?"
pica-led A p.
"No, there atat no time for a lanWn
-I'm off" Tony" voice came already
from behind the third pillar Ap Uwl
watching hi in with a dUmal feeling of
anxiety, then turned and sramporr-l as
fast as shn could over the nks and
water, and up the hill, to tell mother.
Tony had started on a run, but s.n
came to a stop. Tho ground hgn to
slope away frightfully, and the darkness
was like a black curtain hung close
before bis fve. Turning, he could still
cstrh a glimmer from th far-swsy
openings that looked no more than little
spot of brightness. Another step, and
their twinkling light could not rearh
him.
He held the ring tightly clepd In his
hand, but remembering the crtty of
having both hands fre- to feel his war.
he bethought him tf his p kets. Alas'
Tony's pocket were tike the bottotalests
pit, and were vain things for safety M
he ptst the rtsg In his saouth, and start
bravely forward on his dangerous way
in the darkneas.
Ilravely, lie4. bat rashly, consider-
lag that he coqm art sew a thing, fer
haste being the owe Idea in bis salad, he
did not watt to be rautWss, and Hum
hltng along with arm. o-aUtrwH rans

The air was chilling snd smelt sul

one hand still on the pllUr, he out a

Horror' he was on tho brink of a

Sitting down, with his leg hanging
over, ho could not touch hottomi lying
prone ho could not reach it with hit

himself down, ami hung by his hahds,
but his feet found no re .lug-place. He
drew himself up again nd at down to

Suddenly he roiucmltorcd once setting

It. Instantly there came bck a Utile
sharp clink thai sounded very near
Not a moment was to be lost. Again
ho lot himself down by his hands, t,tok
a lung hrosth, lot go, and fell st-out
four Inches,
After another long breath of relief,
Tony began exploring on his hands ami
knees. Ho did not Intend to risk falling
off any higher ledges Tho floor still
tilod downward, and Tony almost
walked on hi brad a ho craw led along,
Presently ho tnni-d upagatust another
pillar, or It the side wall? Ho felt
carefully along for some distance, and
decided that It wa the wall: then rising
up from hi knees, which wss cramped
and cut, ho ventured (4) walk, or rather,
creep, feeling tho wall all the while
with Ills hands, which gave him a er
lain sen mi of sscurllv
Hut ho yet felt as If al any moment
he might step Into a bole, ami ho did
step Into deep tool of water, gelling
weluptohls knees, and sometime ho
stumbled over stalagmites curious
ringed formations made by water dtop
plug upon tho mine floor but by dint
of pluck ho gained headway
Also, ho licgau to grow iim to the
Utter hlitcknoKi, as he found that how
ever needful tho m'Hii of sight seems,
thero are other sense that will lake It
plaro. Ho was certainly kept on tho
alert. T) guard bis face from sharp
projections of tho null, lo find a safe
footing before ever he dared plant a
foot waving his leg lfore him ss a
tnesstirlng-worm wave It head Ihvo
all, to keep from swallowing the ring,
Tony's mind and Ixtdy were well i sam
pled, even though his eyrs were of no
use to him
Ho now felt snre from the sound of his
footstep that l.o had left the great ojrnn
chamber with Its pillars, and hod en
tert-J the gangway, or torrldur, which
connected this old mine with the new
one. Ho knew, fur he had heard his
father ssy so, tlist this gstigwsy wss
forked st a certain point, leading In one
direction down into tho working mine,
and In the other direction bringing one
out u)ii the surfare of the ground
How was Tony to choose tho right
way, when he did not know whether tho
working vein led to the right or to the
lelt;
This difficult) was a serious one, for,
although he could not gel ririlisl j
lost, ho could not lose much pnclous
time. However, h thought that If Ihu
worst came he might trusts miner In
the new gsngway who would show him
tho way out
So ho took heart snd plldl on
wsrily His hearing wss uncomfortably
sharp. Kvery nolm seemed imts.rtanv,
and now and then came a sound which
made hi heart thump ll wsssiWs'V
ling, sometime suoces-ded by a falling
sound, snd It brought to Tony's mind sll
that he had etrr heard of miners burled
beneath falls of coal
This old mine had lost msny of Ha
supports, hometlm the huge pillars
had been ,,robbed,"ns It Is t slled by the
miners, who hated to et so much gil
