GERMINAL ;
Or , the Story of a Great Miner'
Strike.
BY EMILB
Trantlattd from the
i.
On an open plain , under a shitless sk ]
blnok and thick aa ink , a solitary mat
was following the main road fron
Mfttchlxnnos to Montson , a paved waj
of ton kilometres , catting atralghl
through Gelds of boots. Ho could nol
oren BOO ( ho dark ground before htm ,
and ho was Inspntlblo to the tmmonic
plain around him , except from blasts ol
of March wind , great gusts as on the sea ,
biting cold , sweeping over leagues ol
marsh and naked Gold. No shade ol
tree specked the sky ; the road nnfoldod
Itself with the regularity of a jetty amid
the darkening shadows of the night.
The man had startodfrom Marohionnon
at 2 o'clock. Ho had walked with great
strides , shivering beneath the thin lining
of his velvet vest and pantaloons. A
small bundle , tied np In a chocked hand
kerchief , annoyed him greatly , and he
rested It against his hips , sometimes on
ono aldo and sometimes on the ether , to
enable him to pnt both h ds into the
depths of his pockets atthostmo time ,
hands benumbed and deprived of blood
by the cutting cast wind. A single
thought occupied hlj mind a mechanic
without work and without home the
hope that the cold would bo lees severe
after the break of.day. For an hour and
a half ho had proceeded in this manner ,
when , two kilometres from Monts > n , ho
perceived , on the loft , some red fires ,
three brnsiors of glonlng coal burning as
If suspended In the open air. At first ,
through fear , ho hesitated , then ho could
not resist the pitiful dcslro to warm his
hands an instant ,
A steep path ran down bcforo him.
Then all w.ii dark. On hla right was a
high board fonca shutting In a railroad ,
while on the left 1010 a weedy slope sur
mounted by a confusion of gables , the
outlines of a village of loir and irregular
roofs. Ho took about two hundred steps.
Suddenly the fireo again came Into view
cloao to him , at onotldo of the pathwith
out his comprehending they how burned
so high In the black sky llko luminous
moons. But cloeo to the ground another
spectacle nude him pause. It wna a
heavy mass , a cluster of low buildings ,
from which rose the outlines of the chim
ney of a manufactory ; strange lights came
from the dirty windows , oateido five or
six dull lanterns were hanging from a
frame structure , the blackened timbers of
which vaguely defined the outlines of a
huge trestle-work , and from that phantomlike
tom-like appultlon , ihrondid in smoke
and darkness , a single sound was heard ,
the long , loud respiration of escaping
steam , which was not visible.
Then the young man saw It was a mlno.
Ho again became disheartened , What
good ? Ho would get no work there. In
stead of directing his ttopi toward the
building , ho finally ventured to climb the
hill on which burned the three coal fires ,
In Iron kettles , to give light and heat.
The outside workmen had been obl'gjd '
to work late ; they were still clearing
away the useless rubbish. Now ho could
hear iho puihors shoving their cars upon
the trestles , and ho distinguished flitting
shadows tipping them up near each fire.
"Good evening , " said ho , approaching
one of the kettles.
The dtivcr was standing with his back
to the fire , a llttlo old man , dreesed in a
purple wool jacket , on his head was an
old rabbit skin cap ; while his hoise , a
large fawn-colored beset , waited motion
less as stone , whllo they emptied the six
cars which he had drawn up. This work
was done by an assistant , a jolly fjllow ,
red and healthy , who hnrrlod little , press
ing upon the lever with a heavy hand.
Up there the wind was still more severe ,
a freezing wind , whoto great regular
blasts swept on llko the blows of a scythe.
"Good evening , " replied the old man.
Silence followed. The man who felt
blmeclf regarded with suspicion immedl
itely made known his name.
"I call myself Anton Linlier , I am a
machinist. Is there not some work for
mo here ? "
The fltmos throw a light upon him , ho
eras about twenty-one yoara old , very
fork , a handsome fellow , apparently
itrong notwithstanding hit slight limbs.
Reassured , the driver shook his head.
"Work for a machlnltt ? No , no. .
i . There were two hero yesterday.
Ehoro was nothing for them. "
A gust of wind cut off his words
Fhon , Etlenne demanded , pointing to
.ho dark spot where the buildings stood
tt the foot of the hill , "That is a mine ,
s It not I"
This time the old man'could not ro-
ipond. A violent fit of coughing choked
ilm. Finally ho spat , ana his spittle

"Yen , a mlno , the Vultnro. The on-
ranco Is cloeo by , "
Then , with outstretched arm , ho point-
id out In the darkness , the villtge , the

ud already dlccetned. But the six cars

The old man spit black , then anawere
in the wlbd :

Then , in short senlonccs , with breatl

Soon the road would bo full of beggars.
"Yes , " add the old man ; "that will b

with God's purpose to throw all Christian
Into the streets. "
"Wo don't have meat every day. "
"Still , If ono hod broad 1"
"True , if wo only have broad 1"
Their voices wore lost ; gusts of wim
catrled anay the words with a plaintlvi
moan.
"There's Mon'son ' , " rasumod th
Stiver In a loud .voice , turning tDwari
the south.

nan at each indication , "I understand. '

JEforo you at the Victoria , they hiv <

Ho spat and started out again bohinc
its sleepy hone , after having hitched
dm to the empty cars.
Now Anton understood the whole
icuntry. The shades of night wore still
loep , but the old man had so filled them
vitn great forbodlngs , that the yonth no-
ionsious'y ' felt himself , particularly at
hat hour , within the limitless unknown.
iYfts not that a cry of hunger which fol-
owed the March wind through that
iaked country ! The winds wore enraged ,
hey seemed to boar the death of work ,
nd a famine which should destroy many
leople. And with his wandering eyes ho
ndoavored to pierce the darkness , dis-
roised by the desire and yet the fear of
Ight. Everything is annihilated in the
mknown obecnrlty of night ; ho could
mly perceive , ! r the distance , the blast
urnaccs and COKO fires. Those with
owa ot a hundred chimneys , tot abllqae-
r , traced by the ascent of rnddly flames ;
rhllo two towers more to the left burned
ip all blue in the open air like g'ant
orchea. It had the sidnces of Incendear-
am , no lights of atari shone forth from
he threatening sky , only those noctur-
il fires belonging to a country of coal
, nd iron.
"You are perhaps from Belgium , " re
amed the driver , having returned be-
tlnd Anton.
Tnls time ho had only brought three
art. They could easily ba emptied ; an
ccldont had happened at the hoisting

fork for a quarter of an hour. At the

restloa with tholr constant pushing.

"No I from the couth "

d the young man.
The assistant , after having emptied
bo carts , seated himself upon the ground ,
lad of the accident , maintaining his
ante nnspcUbillty. Ho had simply
alscd his large dull oycs to the driver
s If annoyed by all his talk , The
itter , in fact , spoke very little usually.
t was necessary that the faca of a
tranger pleased him , and that ho should

onfidence which sometimes make old
eoplo talk aloud oven to themeolves.
"As for mo , " said he , "I'm from
lontBon ; I'm called Bonnoraort. "
"Is that a surnamaV atkod Anton ,
btonlehed.
The old man laughed in a disagreeable
lanner and pointed to the Vulture.
"Yos , ycf ; they have taken mo three

Ith my stomach filled with
ater HBO a frog. * * * Then
ben they saw I couldn't bo killed , they
died mo 'Bonnemort , ' for fun. "
Hla gaiety loionbled , and hla disagree-
ble laugh brought on a terrible fit of
joshing. The fire kettle now fully lit
p his great head with its strange look-
ig whllo hair , and his unanimated face
1 a livid hue , covered with bluish spots ,
[ a was abort , with an enormous neck ,
10 calves of hla logs and his heels bare ,

'Ind ' , ho seemed ot ( tone , ho acted as
lough ho had no suspicion of the cold
r tno gusts of wind whlatlicg in hla
irs. When ho coughed , his throat was
ickod in a terrible manner ; he spat at
10 foot of the kettle , and tno ground
as blackened.
Anton looked at him , and then at the
round which he stained in that
tanner. *
"Havo yon worked In tbo mine a long

Bonnnmort threw np both arms

While ho TMS spoiklng some pieces <

with a reddening reflection.

But ho shook his bond violently. Then
when ho conld speak :

an't got rid of It. * * * The strange
bins Is that I plt It's strange. * *
His throat again filled up and ho spat
black.
"Da you splltblood ? " demanded Anton
at last daring to question htm.
Slowly Bonnemort wiped off his mouth
with the biok cf his hand.
"It's coal. * * * I have enough
In my carcass to warm mo the rest cf my
days. And 1'va not pat my foot down

There was sllenoa , the neighboring
hammer boat Its regular blows In the
mlnos , the wind passed on with Ita wall
like the cry of hunger and weariness
coming from the depths of the night.
Before the fUmes which looked wild , the
old man continued in a lower voiceturn
ing over In hla mind the days gone by.
Ah ! certainly It was not yesterday that
ho hod struck the vein 1 His family had
worked for the company of the MoLtson
mlnos slnco the start ; and that dated far
back ; it had been then already a hun
dred and six yeaip. His grandfather ,
William Mahon , a boy of thirteen years
then , had found the rich coal at Requll-
lart , the first mlno of the company , an
old abandoned mine to-day , down near
the sugar-mill of Fauvello. All the
country know him , to provo which
the vein discovered was called the
voln William , the first name uf his
grandfather. Ho had not known him , a
largo man , they say , very strong , who
died of old ago at sixty years. Then his
father , Nicolas Mahon , called the lied ,
when lois than forty years of age , was
barned In the Vulture that they wore
sinking at that time ; a cave In complete
ly crushed him , the rocks drank his blood
and swallowed up his bones , Two of his
uncles and his thrco brothers , later on ,
had lo t their lives there. Ho , Vlncenl
Mabon , wbo of all of them was loft a lit
tle better preserved , except the crooked
legs , pa od for a rogno. What matter ,
however , ho worked. They said that ol
the father and his tone , llko they would
have said anything else. His nonf , Alt-
saints-day Mahon haa died , and his llttlo
sons , and all his people who were working
In front of him , in thosjmo gallery. Ono
hundred and five years of digging down ,
the children after the old men , for the
same master ; well , many of the basses
conld not have told so good A story.
"Still , when one can eat ! " murmured
Anton again.
"That'a what I say ; whllo ono has
bread to eat ono can live. "
Bounomont became silent , his eyes
turned toward the alley , where some
light a shone out ono by one. Fonr
o'clock eounded by the clock of Mansion ,
the cold became greater.
"And Is your company rich1' ? asked
Anton.
The old man lifted hla shoulders , then
lot them drsp , as though overwhelmed by
the thought of money.
"Ah , JOB ; ah I jes. * * * Not as
rich , perhaps as Its neighbor the com
pany of Aczln. But millions and mil
lions all the same. They can'c count
any longer. * * * Nineteen mlnos ,
of which thirteen are worked , the Vul
ture , Victor , Orevscconr , Mlron , Saint-
Thomai , Madeleine , Oantel and still
othcn , and six which are worn out , ft 1th
air Bhaftflliko | Kequi lirr. * * * Ten
thousand workmen , grants which extend
over slxtj-seven communes , an output of
Qvp thousand tons per day , a railroad
uniting all the mines , and some shops
and buildings. * * * Ah 1 yes ; ah !
ires , they have money ! '
A rolling of cars upon the way , made
the great fawn-colored horto prick up hlo
jars. The csgo had been repaired be
low , and the crushers had resumed their
work. While he harnessed iha beast to
redescend , the driver added noftly ,
jptakine to himself :
"You mustn't lot yourself talk so
nucb , deuced Idlcnessl * * * If M.
Bennebeau kuow her much time hid
icon spent. "
Anton deep In thought , was looking
> ut Into the night. Ho inquired :
' 'Then the mlno belongs to M. Hcnne-
) eau ? '
"No , " explained the old man , "M.
EJennobeau is only Iha overseer. He Is
laid like us. "
With a getturo the young man stared
nto the boundlcEH depths of the nlcht.
"Whoso is it , then ? "
Bat Bonnomort remained an instant
uffocated by a now fit of coughing of
uch violence that he conld not get his
jreath. At last when he had spat and
vipcd tbo black matter from bis lips ho
aid , In the wind which was increasing :
"What to whom does It belong ? Wo
[ on'tknow. To tomebidy. " And with
its hand ho pointed Into tbo darkness
agilely to an unknown and remote place ,
ntiablted by thoto people for whom the
ilahans had dug the vein for mura tban
century. His voice had tikon a sort of
elisions fear ; it was ts if ho had spoken
f an Inaccessible tabernaolo , whcro was
lidded the unknown God who gave them
heir portion without knowing him.
"But If , at least , ono had broad In
uflioloncjl" repeated Anton for the
hlrd time without apparent change.
"Yes , indeed ! If ono always had bread ,
bat would bo good. "
The horsa had started , the driver dla-
ppeared in hla turn , with the loitering
top of an iavAlld. Tbo assistant bad
lot budged ; drawn np in n ball , with his
bin thrust betwen hla knees , hla great
lullojca were fixed upon vacancy.
When ho had taVon up his handle
taton still loitered. He fait the wind
ret zing his back , whlla In front ho was
mining before tSo huge firo. Perhaps ,
ill the tame , It wou'd ' no wise for him to
nqulre at the wnrkr ; tbo old rain could
im know ; fjen he bectmo resigned , he
vould accept any work. Where could he
; o , and what would become of him In
, bat country famishing from the stoppage
) f woik ; mutt he lay hla oarcua behind
i wall llko a lott dcg ? But be hesitated
lirough fear of the Vulture , In the
aldat of that level plain shrouded by a
light 83 thick. At every blast the wind
teemed itronger , rta if it blew from a con-
itinUy enlarging horizon , Not one peep
of day whllentd thU dead sky , the high
chimneys alone fLimocI out , and the co o
fires reddened the darkness without ro <
vjallng the unknown. And tko Vulture
at the bottom of the hollow with Its lol-
tlemrnt of wrntchod cvcalnros , wis still
more darkly hidden , breathing a deeper
and longer breath , troubled with its pain-
'ul digestion oi human flesh.
