Anton l.nntier , a yonncc mechanic out ot
work , reacboa the coal mines of Monteon ,
Franco , cold , hungry and foot-eoro. The
death of a miner rnikea a vacancy and ho 10-
cures employment in the Vulture mine , Mn-
hon , ono of the miners , nnd his daughter
Catherine , explains the work to htm nnd Mist -
ist htm the Erst dny. The terrible condi
tion of the mine and the hard work of tha
miners. Men , women and children employed

and the occupants described.
ClUl'TEU V.
Mahonwithout consulting the watch
which won loft In his vest , said :
"Almost an hoar. Zacharlo , la that
done ? "
The young man pauaod , _ but romnlnod
upon his back , hla wandering oyoi tan
ning ever the line of atchos which ho
had maclo the dajr before ; than ho awoke
from his atnpnr and replied :
"Yo , that'll ' do till to-morrow. "
And ho wont back to his work In the
drift. Lavaqno and Oh&ral iilso solzod
tbeir picks , There was B panie ; then ,
wiping tholr faces upon their bare arms ,
they looked at the rook above thorn from
which protruded great masses of alato.
Work waa the only topic of conversation.
"Another chance of being burled under
the earth , " mnrmored Obaval. It don't
make any difldronco to the company ,
though. "
" 1'hlovcsl"growledLivnquo. "They're
always trying to got the best of us. "
'A icharlo was laughing. Ho made fun
cf everything , and It amused him to hoar
the company abused. In his qalot way
Mahon explained that for sixty feet tha
whole nature of the rock was changed.
It was best to bo jas * ; they could foresee
nothing. Then , when the two others
continued to nil against their chiefs , ho
bocauio nucBsy , looking around him.
"Hold your tongues ! You'vo aald
enough nowl'1
'You're right , " Bald Lovaquo , lower
ing his voice. ' 'It's rltky to talk llko
that. "
A fear of spies constantly haunted
them , oven in that darkness , as if the
stock-holders' coal , still In the vein , had
ears.
ears."I don't care , " added Chaval In a loud
voice , nith an air cf defiance , "but If
that pig Dansaott speaks to mo the way
ho did the other day I'll fling a ntouo at
him , I don't hinder him from making
love to the blonde. "
This time Z icharlo roared. The love
rf tha superintendent for the wife of
Petora was a continual cause for mirth in
tbo mine. Even Catharine , at the foot
of the drift , leaned upon her shovel , her
sides shaking with laughter ; but Mahon
became angry , filled with tear ho could
no longer conceal.
"Are you going to shut up ? Walt till
you're alone If you want to spoak'sach
things. "
Ho was still speaking when the sound
of feet was heard in the upper gallery.
Almosi Immediately the mlno engineer ,
tbo little nigger , as the Trorkmeu called
him , appaarod at the top of the drift , ac
companied by Dansaerr , the superintend
ent.
ent."What did I say ? " muttered Mahon.
"Speak of the devil and his imps will
appear. "
Paul Mogrel , the nephew of M. Hen-
neboau , was a slight , liaadeoma man of
twenty-six yoais , with curly hair and
black mustache. His pointed nose and
bright eyes reminded ono of a sharp fer
ret ; but hla ofliblo air WAS changed Into
cno of authority when dealing with tbo
workmen. In miner's dress , like them ,
he was covered with coal-dust , and to
command their respect ho assumed cour
age , running the risk of breaking his
back In the moat difficult part of tha
mine , always the first at a caving In , erIn
In an explosion from fire-damo.
"Wo ate hero , DAnsaort , are wo not ] "
aald ho.
The superintendent , a Belgian , with a
heavy face and largo sensual nose , re
plied with an extggeratod polltoncsi :
"Yes , Monsieur Megrel. Here ia the
man they engaged this morning. "
Then both pasted Into the drift open
Ing. The engineer , going up to Anton ,
raised his lamp and looked at him , with
out taylng a word.
"It's all right , " eald he nt laet "Bat
I don't like them to engage unknown
pooplo. "
Ho would not listen to the cxplana
tlons given him , the necessity of the
work and the company's desire to replace
the women whcelois with boya. He waa
looking latently at the colling , while tbo
miners ogaln tuok up their picks. Sud
denly ha crkd :
"Say , now , Mahon , have you no
thought for pooph ? You are Rolng to
bury us hero llko doga. "
"Oh ! that's aolld , " responded the work
man , quietly.
"Sol d I Why the rock is already ( ink
Ing , and yon grudge the time spent ia
placing props seven feet apart I Ahl you
would rick cracking your rkulla rather
than leave your vein to attend to thetlm
boring , I tell you to prop ots ; do you
mediately. Doable the tupp r
hear ? "
And at the angry locks cf the miners ,
who thought themselves good judges of
their own safety , ho quickly became
angry.
"Verywolll When your heads are
broken , do you have to betr tbo con *
sequence * ? Hot at nil ; U is ' the
company who will bo obliged to glvo
pensions cither io you or to your wives.
They know you ; to have two more airs
In the evening yon would glvo your
lives. "
Mahon , In spite of the anger which
filled him , said composedly ;
"If wo were paid better wo would do
more propping. "
The engineer shrugged his shoulders
without replying. Tneu going to the cad
cf the drift , he concluded ;
"There la an hour left yet ; go to work ,
every ono of joa or you snail each be
fined three frinca. "
A loud growl from the miners followed
this command , The governing power ,
upbcld by military discipline , was felt by
alt in the mine , from the tuperlntocdont
down to the smallest boy. Chaval and
Luvoqno shook their iUts , whlln Blab o a
Checked them with a look and Zicharie
shrugged his shoulders in dlsgaat. Bat
An tin shook with anger. Eioh rnommit
spent In that he-It filled him with revolt ,
Ho looked at Catherine , patient , with
bent back. Cou'd it ba possible that they
were killing themselves by Inches , toiling
In thete shadow * , and then not geltlnc
the few sous for their dally bread ,
Megrel , who had gene away wiih
Dumuert , contented himself , whenever
approving , with a nod of the head ,
Again their volcea were heard They
lud paused onca more , and wcra cintuln-
log the propping on Ihj read , twcAty
feet ot which the minors were obliged t (
keep iotopalr.
"Did 1 not tell you they c roi foi
nothing ! ' cried the engineer. "Why
don't you watch them ? "
"I am weary of saying the aamo thing
ever and ever , " exclaimed the superin
tendent.
Mfgrol screamed londly :
"Mahon 1 Mahon 1"
Then still going on ho continued :
"See here , la that the way that should
bo done. Yon oconomtza timber to econo
mize time , I understand tint the timber
costs ns n great deal , and , if that would
stand it would be all right , But it is
bound to break , and then the company
is forced to employ an army of repairers
Just look there ; why , it is terrible. "
Ohavnl wished to speak , but ho made
him keep silent.
"No , I know what you are going to
( ay. That wo should pay you inoto ,
Well , I warn you that you will force ns
to make a change. Yea , wo will pay you
in part for the timbering , and wo will
rodnca the price of the cars in proportion.
Wo shall too if you win. In the mean
time , prop that up at onco. I will pass
hero to-morrow. "
And with that threat ho moved off.
Danenott , so humble before him , re
mained behind a second , saying to the
men :
"You'vo made mo catch it , I'll fine
you moro than three francs , if you don't
look out.
Then , when ho bad gone , Mahon oroko
out :
"Great God ! that is not just. I bo-
llovo in bolng calm , but they would make
any ono violent. Have you heard ? the
cars cut down and a percentage for the
timbering ! It is only anothnr plan to
pay na lees. "
Ho waa looking for aomo ono on whom
to vent his anger , when ha persolvod
Catherine and Anton swinging their
itrmf.
"Aro you going to glvo mo oomo tim
ber ? I Buppoao this has amused you. "
Anton wont aflor a load , BO furious at
the chiefs , that ho did net notice the
rape of the miner.
Lovnquo and Ohaval swore roundly ,
oven Zicbarla had navagoly gene to work
at the timbering. For nearly n half hour
nothing was hoard but the cracUng of
wood , wedged In with blows of a mallet.
Not a word waa exchanged ; they wore
breathing heavily , exasperated at the
rock , which they would have torn out
and raised higher with tholr shoulders
had they boon able to lift the extra
wuleht.
"That's enough , " said Mahon at last ,
worn out with rage and fatigue. "One
hour and a half. Ah ! this has bean
good day ; we've not made fifty SDUS ; I'm
dhcoUHged. "
There was only a half hour for work
loft ; ho dressed nlmsolf , the othorn doing
the same. The very sight of the drift
irritated them. When the wheeler wont
on with her work they called her back ,
angry at her zeal ; they were through for
that day , andall sixtheir tools under their
arms , started out , on their return to the
shaft , through the same openings which
they had followed In the morning.
In the passage Catherine and Anton
paused , mooting little Lydlc , who had
stopped in the opening to lot thorn gasa.
She told them of the dleappcarnnco of
Moqnette , who an hour before had been
taken with a bloading at the nose ; she
had gene somewhere to bathe her face ,
and they could not tell what had become
of hor. When they loft her , the child ,
tired out , with aching back , again began
pushing her car , her Insect-like arms and
limbs reminding one of n thin , black ant
moving a burden too largo for ita slzo.
The lower gallery was deserted. Ia
the distance red lights were disappearing
on ono eldo of the road. They were no
longer cheerful ; they walked with the
heavy step of fatigue , the in front , ho
following. The lights were growing dim ;
ho could scarcely distinguish her , envel
oped as she was la a kind of smoky fog.
Thinking of her ho waa vexed. Why
had she lied to him ? That man was her
lover. They were both stopping In or
der to avoid the projections above thorn.
Without cause he felt angry at her. But
every little while she , turning around ,
warned him of an obstacle , aa though
asking him to ba amiable. They were
alone ; why should they not bo good
friondt ? Finally , when they came out
upon the main gallery , for him It wcs a
relief from the indecision which ho suf-
ferred ; while she gave ono last sad look ,
a regret for happiness which they could
never recover.
Now , around them the underground
road resounded with the continual pass
ing of the people , and the going and com
ing of the cars , cirriod along by the
trotting horao ? . Lamps shona out like
stais at night. They were obliged to
shrink hick against the rock , leaving the
rend to the oueming shadows of men and
boasts , whose breath they felt in passing.
Johnnie , with bare feet , running behltid
his train , cried tomethlog to his tlater ,
which they did not hear ia the thunder
ing of the wheels. They still wont en
She had become tilent , while ho , not re
membering the crossroads , Imagined oho
was misleading him moro and moro ; noir
ho Buffered from the cold , a chill which
made him shiver the harder aa ho ap
pro sohod the shaft. Between the nar
row walla the air blow violently. Ho was
indlspairof ever arriving , when , sud
denly , they pulled themselves np 1 y their
Hands Into the main room of the floor ,
Chaval threw on them a sidelong
glance of distrust. The others wtro
there , still perspiring la the oold draft ,
silent , restraining their low routtorlngs
They had arrived too soon , and were uu-
able to go up for a half hour , perhaps
longer , because of the arrangements for
the descent of a hoi a ) . The loaders
wora still tilling their cara with a deafening -
ing noise , and the cages wore swallowed
up , disappearing In the beating shower
which fell into tbo black hole. Below ,
the sump , a water aump of thirty feet
filled by this falling stroim , also sent to
wards him a thick dampnots. Some men
were ceasoletsly moving around the shaft
pulling the signal cords , pressing hard
upon the levers , amidst ; that a ream of
water by which thelrclothing waa soaked.
A reddening light , revealing great mov
ing shadows fell from tbo three open
lamps , giving to tint subterranean
chamber the air of a villainous cavern ,
the home of bandits , on the edge of a
stream.
Mahon madea last effjrtho approached
Potera who had gene to work at six
o'clock.
"Say yon might as well let u go np. "
But the loader , a splendid follow , with
itrong limbs and kind f 03 , refused wlto
with an angry gesture.
"Impossible , otk too ovonoor. They'd
Qnn me * .
Fresh routterlnga were stlfhdi Cath
erine whliptrid ia the ear of Anton ,
"Camo and aeo the stablea. It's nlco
there. "
They eecopsd without bticg neon , for
It was forbidien to go there , The stable
ETAS on tbohft , at the cud of a thort gal
lery. Eighty feet in lecg'h and thirteen
In width , hewn out of the rock and aruhed
ivcr with bricks , holding twenty horses.
It wai Indeed nlco there , a good odor tf
Fresh Utter , properly cared fur , Oao light
burned softly aa a night-lamp. Some
horses turned their great child llko eyoi
upon them , then , satisfied , went back tu
their oats In pence , laborers , fat and
healthy , loved by all the world.
While Oithorluo was reading aloud the
names ever each stall , she q ve n slight
cry on seeing aomo one suddenly stand
erect before hor. It was Mouquctto ,
who had fallen out of n heap of straw
where she had been sleeping. Monday ? ,
weary from the frolic of Sunday , the
gave her nose a violent blow with her Gat ,
then , leaving her work under the pretext
of going to find sotno water , she c mo
there , to Ho down with the bmta la the
warm litter. Her father who had a
great weakness for the rogue , tolerated it
at the rlak of getting in trouble.
Suddenly , old Moqno entered ; ho w s
abort , bald and scarred by time , but still
remained fat , n rare thing among miners
of fifty years , Since they had made him
n groom ho had chewed so much thU
oven his gums bed become discolored ,
When Ii3 perceived the two others ho
became angry.
"What's the matter with you all ? I
don't want you to bring any man hero in
my stable. "
Moqnotto , laughing , thought that
'unny. But Anton want away , angry ,
Catherine following htm. At length ,
when all Ihroo had returned to the main
_ llory , Robert nnd Johnnie had arrived
with their train of cars. Tlt3y pauaod at
the cages , and the young girl approached
the horaa to caress him , speaking to him
as she would to a companion. It waa
Bnttalllc , the oldest worker In the mlno ,
a white horse that had boon at the bottom
tom six years. For six years ho had
lived in that Inlc , occupying tin same
corner of the stable , making the same
shadow along tha black galleries , without
oven having apatn Been the light of day.
Yory fat , hla skin shone with on appear
ance of good health ; ho seemed here to
pasa a happy life , sheltered from the nn-
bapplncsa abovo. Ho bad became accus
tomed to the darkness. Too track which
ho traversed wnj so familiar to him , that ,
with his head , ho would push open the
ventilating doors , and finally crouch
down BO at not to strike against tin low
phcjo. Ho must also have counted his
trip ] , for. when ho had made the regular
number , ho refuted to commence another ,
and they were compelled to take him
back to hla stall Now old ago had come ,
his cat-like eyes were occasionally clouded
with sadness. Perhaps ho vaguely behold ,
as if in a draam , the laat place where
ho toiled , the old mill nt Mar-
chlonncs , bu It upon the border of tbo
Scrape , nnrroundcd by green trees , gen
tly stirred by the wind ; dim rocollcc-
tlonr came up before him , and ho stood ,
his head down , trembling npon his old
legs , making futile efforts to recall the
rest.
Meanwhile , the work wont on at the
shaft , The signal of four blows was given -
on for sending down the horse , filling
him with emotion , for hd had also arrived
llko that boast , seized with just such ter
ror , disembarking almost dead. Above ,
when fastened with a cord , he had strug
gled desperately ; then , as soon as ho felt
the ground giving away beneath him , ho
became as if petrified , disappearing
without a movement , hh eyes onlargca
and fixed. This ono waa too largo to
pass between the guldea , so they hid
bdon forced to suspend him from the
under portion of the cage. The de
scent took four minutes ; they had decreased -
creased the velocity aa a precaution.
Thui the fright was prolonged. Were they
going to leave him on the road , lost In
the night ? At last he appeared , appar
ently llfelcaj , hla great oyea dilated with
terror. It was a bay horeo , about three
yeara old , named Tro&pette.
"Hold onl" cried Moqua , who o duty
it was to receive htm ; "lead him off ;
don't ' untie him yet. "
So MI , Trompotto was In a heap upon
the iron flagging. Ho did not stir , feel
ing as though in a nightmare , In that
dark hole , that profound blaokneta , re
sounding with tumult. They had com
menced to nntlo him , when Bitatlle , who
had just been unharnessed , stretched out
bia nock to scent this companion who
bad thus fallen from the earth above.
The enlarged group of workmen joked.
Well ! what gocd smell did ho find ? But
Bitallla waa happy. Ho had found the
good odor of the open air , the forgotten
smell of the sun en the meadows. And ,
all at cnco , ho broke forth into a aoop
enorllr.g , a tone of joy , which almost
seemed to dlo away In a sob. It was a
welcome , a reminder of thoao old things
a whiff of which had returned to break
the melancholy of that moro than pris
oner , who would only nscand when dead.
"Ah ! that Bitaillel" cried the work
men , overjoyed by thceo tricks of tholr
favorite. ' 'He's talking with his friend. "
Trompotto , perfectly satlzfied , had noc
moved. Ho remained upon his aldo , aa
if ho atill felt the rope tied around him ,
pinching the akin. Finally , they made
him stand up ; ho was astonished , his
legs sinking with great ohlll. And old
ftlcqno led away the two beasts who had
fraternized.
"Aro wo roidy now ? " aeked Mahon.
It waa uncoainry to unloid the eager ,
and at any rate , it still wanted ten mia-
atoi of the hour for ascending Little
by little the drifts were emptied of the
rnlnerj wha returned by all the galleries.
Ihero were already fifty wet and shiver
ing man there. Paters , In aplto of hla
ktnd faces boxed the oars of hla daughter
Lydlo , baoanao she had left the dritt too
oarly. % icharlo waa filly pinching
Mcquotto. But the discontent grow
jreacer. Ohavftl and Levaque were re
lating the throats of the engineer , "tho
ma cut down In pticc , the timbering to
bo paid for in part , " and many oxclama-
tlona greeted this project. A rebellion
traa cropping out in tula corner nearly
two thousand feet below the oarth. Tbeaa
men , stafned with coal and chiliad with
ffnltlnga accused the company of kilting
ino-half of Ita workmen below nnd starv
ing the other half , Anton listened ,
ihlvcrlng.
"Hurry apt hurry npl" said Richmond ,
) no of the overseers , to the loader.
Ho hastened the work , not wisbicg to
so guilty of cruelty , pretending not tu
aavo heard tholr worda. However , the
uurranrs had bocomu such that he was
forced to pat n stop to thorn , Behind
aim they were saying that it would not
tlways be llko this , and some Cno mcrn-
log the mlno would explode.
"You are reasonable , " said he to
Mahon , "do make those others bo silent.
Where ono isnot the strongest ho should
be the moat patient , "
But Mabon , although ho had become
3 1ra hlmidf , waa slill dissatisfied , end
would tint Interfere. Suddenly the
roicea cease : ! ; Dinsaoct and the little
