CIIA1TKK XIV. Toward tlio mlihllu of Angiiflt , nflor tlio inuffln o of Xaulmrio mm wlion ho could proeurft from the company : i house in'tho nllo.y for 1'liilomono and the chil dren , Anton installed himself with the Millions nnd for tlio lirst time lie experi enced an uneasiness before Catherine. It was an intimaoy of every moment : lie rnplaeed tlio oldest.brother , sharing the bed with Johnnie , in front of tlio one in wliifh the largo sister lay. On { joins to bed and on arising ho was obliged to iiress and undress beloro her , seeing her also tnKe oil' and put on her clothing , blie had that transparent , whiteness of blondes , though her hands and fcioo were already spoiled , her arms and neck were crossed by : i line of .sunburn like an amber collar , bho was , however , never ollended. If , in spite of himself , ho was compelled to observe her movements , he avoided ut tering nny joke of a dangerous kind whim she hurriedly undressed and slipped into bed. 'I ho presence of her parents re strained him from the expression of any sentiment either of friendship on the ono hand or raneor on the other. Soon their l.lo beeamo commonplace , at the toilet , at the repsjst and during work. The only modesty assumed by the family was in the daily wash whicn the young girl now proceeded to take alonu in tlio room above , while the men one after the other porlormed their ablutions on the lower tloor. At the end of the lirst month Anton nnd Catherine no longer notiee'd each other. 'J ho former complained little of ilolmnio who held himself aloof irom him. Al/.iro slept without a breath , while in tin : morning Lonoro and Henry were always lound with their arms en twined , just as they had Iain down. In tlio dark house lliero was no sound save the .snores of the mother nnd father , coming torth at regular intervals , like tlio blasts of a. forgo. In reality Anton lound that ho was better ofT there than at Uiisseneur's , the bed was not bad , they changed it every fortnight ; the sou ) ) was better ; ho only sullered from a scarcity of meat. But for lorty-livo francs lie could not. expect to have a rabbit at each meal. His money helped the tanuly , who managed to get moii" with but tew debts , and they evinced IUIILU gratitude toward their lodger. Ins linen was washed and mended , his buttons sewed on , his clothing kept in order , and ho appreciated the neatness 01 the lamily. It was at this time when Aiitun had commenced to understand tue ideas which had Idled his mind ; up to this time ho had only had the prompt ings ol niMinct amid the sullen actions of hi.s comrades , lie asked himself all sorts 01 contused questions : \Vliy this misery oi one ? U by the wealth ot olhersr Aliy tins one under the control ot that one , willioiit the hppuot ever changing places \Vilu linn ? Ilia lirst leston was to com prehend his ignorance ; then a secret Minimi , tv chagrin took possession ot him ; ot tno vigor 01 the laws ho know noth ing ; lie no longer dared converge about tlio tilings wiueh perple.xed him , the equality of alt men , tlio justice which luniicii : i dividing line between them and tno arihtucracy. So ho applied hititbclf lo the study of pulilk'nl ecuuemy only to learn its do- louts. A'ow ho kept up a regular corre spondence w.th i'mohart , through whoso iiistiiiclions ho was launched in tlm so- c.aliaUinovemeiil. Ho sent lorsome books 01 ulncn tno reading badly digested , served to exalt his views. A book of mcuicino , capoc'iully , "Tho ilygeno ot the lUiiicr1 unit a treatise on political econ omy of an incomprehensible dryness , ana some anarchist pamphlets , which only served to contuse him , in conneo- ' turn with a low olu newspapers which ho | kept as a linal resort to which ho could j niicr lur argument m any discussion that migutai'iso. iJouvarinc , however , took homo \ulumcs to him , and a work upon inu co-operative bociety had made nun my a m tor a month of u universal associ ation ol exchange , abolishing money , basing upon work the entire social life , bluiinu ol lu.s ignorance wan followed by priil0 ; ho was able to think for himselt. During thcno lirst months Anton was possessed with the ravishing delight pe culiar to a neophyte , his heart nearly burbling with generous indignation against the opprobnors. Ho had not yet inailo tor him-iolf a system from the vagueness of his reading ! ) . The prac tical claims of Hassoncnr intermingled in him With the distracting violence of Jouvarine , and when ho went out of 1' Aviinlago , where ho continued almost every day to rail against the company , ho walked away in iv soVt of dream , as * sibling in the radical regeneration of the people without its costing u broken win dow or u drop of blood , Nevertheless ttio moans of execution were obscure : ho proturrcd to believe that things would go very well for ho lost his. head as soon its ho tried to form u programme of recon struction. Ho occasionally repeated that it was necessary to banish the political for the social question , a phase which ho had read nnd which seemed wise to him to say among the phlegmatic coal mou where ho lived. iN'ow , every evening ut Hahon's tltoy were u half hour later in going to boil. Anton always spoke of the same causa. Since his nature had become relineil , ho found himself more and moro ollbiided b.v the promiscuousncss of tlio alloy. Worn they beasts to bo thus penned up > one with the other in the midst df the ' fields ; so crowded together that one could not change his clothing alone * " .Confound it ! ' * baid .Million ; "if wo had moro money wo would have moro case. All the same , it Is not oiwy for people ple to live like this. " ' 1 ho lamily look part In the talks , each speaking his mind while the oil in the lamp tainted the air of the room already biiiulliiig of fried onions. No , life was mil funny. They worked like beasts at labor which was wor o than n galley Mavo's , running the risk of being killed and then not earning enough to have meat oneo a day. They wore obliged to cat sparingly or bo devoured by debts ; and when Sunday arrived they spent the oim day passed tibovo ground hi u Bleep of fatigue. 'Now , JUrrf Million broke forth ; "Tho foolishness is when they say it can change : that happiness will come some dny. 1 don't wish ill of nny ono , but there nro times when this injustice fipkens mo. " They were silent. Hut. wlien old Bon- ncmort was thcro ho would open his eyefl in nirmeincnt. In his time they did not trouble themselves in thnt manner ; they were born among the conl nnd tin" the vein without demanding the why nnd wherefore ; ho now breathed the air which hnd filled the coal men with nin- bilion. "A good drink's n good drink , " ho murmured. "Tho chiefs nro often scoundrels , but there'll always bo chiefs won't there ? It's useless to break your your own head with limllng limit with theirs. " Immediately Anton bcoamo excited. That was ju lit. Things would change , because the workmen were thinking of these things. In olden times the miner lived like n brute , always under ground , like a machine for extracting the coal , ignorant of what was oeetiring outside of tlio mine. The owners who governed them understood each other. Tlio seller nnd buyer could cat their tlesh , and the coal miner were not oven aware of it. But. from this time on the miner was nwaku , nnd ho would mnkb himself felt us ono of an nrmy of men who would re establish justice. Had not nil citi/.eiis been ecinalsinco the revolution ? They voted together. Why did the workmen remain the slave of tlm employer ' who paid him ? At present the great com panies with their machines wiped out everything. They no longer oven had the guarantee of olden times. The men of the same trade must nt least unitu and defend themselves , and thanks to instruction , there would bo nn explosion of everything ono day. For , look in the nlloy even the grand fathers would not have been able to sign their mimes as the fathers now signed , and the sons know how to read anil wnlo like professors. The ineivasmg knowl edge jmshod forward , litvlo by little , a ruijo harvest of men ripening as under the sun. From th-s moment they no longer stuck , each in his place , throtiga- out Ills entire existence , but thev had tlio ambition to take llio place of 'the next higher , yll.y , then , should they not u.so their lists in becoming stronger ? Muhon , though disturbed , remained full of opposition. "It you did anything , they'd give you back your livror , " ho said. "Xo , the oM folks nro right ; the m.ner'll always have to work with the hope of a leg of mut ton , now and then , in recompense. That's fate , which nothing can change. Mrs , Mahon , who had been Mlcnf for some moments , broku out , as if in a dream , murmuring in n low voice : "Still , if what the priests tell i's ' is true , the poor people of this world wJl bencii in the other. " A burst , of laughter interrupted her. Even the children shrugged tlieir shoul ders. All were incredulous of this ! ) " lief , having a .secret tear of tlio mine's ! ghosts , but laughing at the empty .s.ty- "Fool ! " cried the father. "If the priest * believed that , they d eat less and work more , to keep a good place 0:1 lujrii for themselves. No ; when wo ro dead , ' we're dead. " The wife heaved great sighs. "Ah ! my god : ih"ii.y : ! got ! ! " Then both hands I tall ripcm her knees , with an air of deep ilc > ject.on. : "Then it's true , wo'ro fools. " All turned , look'ng at Anton. ] ! anne- inert spilt in lh tin ; , while Million , his pipe out , watched Ins month. A\r. \ ro listened between Lenoro and Henry a.sloop by the table , lint Catherine. IIIT chin in her hand , Beeined to drink , in with her great clear eyes , evry word ho uttered , as he spoke o'f h s helii-f , ojtenintj tlio enchanted Intnro of hs ! sijeml dream. Around them thn alloy was in darkness , nothing was hi-anl hut the ery ot an n- 1'antor tlio aiioliitiimtodi'iin I quarrel ot - ard. In thc room the dock ticked soft- I ly. A nioi.st freshness went \\t \ \ from " tlm ; sandy hearth in sp te of tlm heavv a r. . "And then ! are other t noughts , " s.ild the young man. "Do yon si-o ( ! od and paradise to make you liupp.v. Am von not able to make happinc.i- yotirsi-lves on earth ? " With an ardent voieo he spoke of tlm wasted years. From the ulc > so.il hon/on n ray of light had suoim out at last , dis playing itself in the somber 1,1'n of th"- poor people. The constant m'ry. ; . tuo overpowering work , the beast-.ii ; ! ; lite , in the end slaughtered lor others , woiil'i all disappear at a blow and just en would descend Irom the sky. that jitstieo wit en would bring happiness to all men. nui.t- ing equality anil fraternity reiirn su- preme. A new society would spring up in a day , with a wonderful rouiitr.s where eaeh c.tb'.en would lives from work and take his part in tiio eomiuoii jov. ' 1 ho old rotten world would lall in pieces ; a voting humanity , purged of thei- crimes , would form a simple peonlo of workingmen who have lora motto ' to csiicsli , merit accord njr to his worth. " That dream , constantly enlarged and embellished , beeamo so enchanting iib tense nso higher than the impossible. At rirt Mrs. Mahon r ifusd to listen , filled with an unknown torror. No , no , it wus too good ; tlmy b'onldn't Imvo sneli ideas , lor it niado lifu sneni still worse ; and to 1m happ.v they would Imvo to kill everyone above thenx. Wlii-n sno fiaw Mahon'stiyes ' .shine , troubled , eon- quered , she bi'uuinu still more exeitud , interriitin ] Anton. "lon't lihten , my man. You sen he's telling us stories. Uo yon think l" i bosses would over consent to work like us ? " ' But little by little tlm oharm also acted upon her. With imagination awiiknnc. . . , Hi liin , slin entered ii < < ou t.iounehanted world of hope. It was so sweet to tor- cot the sad reality for an hour. lYhen tlioy lived liku brutes with tlmir noses u the ground , tney needed to treat tm-m- solves to things which thev t-onld ne.vor jiosse.s.s. Hut that wiiioti compelled her to ayreo with the yoiinjf man wut hur sense of justice. "There you'rn right , " cried she. "It would surely bo jn t to possess in our turn. " Then Mahon exclaimed " ( iruut God ! I'm ' not noli , but I'd give a hundred sous not to die until I'vo seen all that , y/liutiv turning U.sidu ] ) down , Do 3011 think it'll he soon , and how am people to yo about.bringing it around1 Anton again commenced to.spijak. Ti'o old society would break up ; it could not last longer than a niontlu lie w > Mit into tlio work of execution moro vaguely , mixing up what ho had read , but not fearing before these ignorant peoplts to launch out into explanations wli-eh even ho did not understand. All th's workings were smoothed down into a certainty pf easy triumph , which would terminate the misunderstanding between the class es. The Millions seemed to comprehend , approving , accepting the most miracu lous solutions with tlm blind faitli of n w believers , equal to those Christians in olden times who waited for the coining of u perfect society upon the ashes of the old. Alxlro , who understood part o ( this conversation , imagined this happiness to bo a very warm house , whore the chil dren played ami ate all they w'shcd. Catherine , without moving , her cliin ul. ways in her hand , never took lioroyes from Anton and when ho became silent she paled and shivered as thongl'i with cold. ' Hut the mother looked at the clock. "It's after uinb. We'll never bu able to got up to-morrow , " And they arose from the table in de spair , their hearts ill at ease. It seemed to thum tlmt they had been wealthy and had now fallen back in the niiiv' . Old Iloiiiiemort had started for work , growling - ing that these stones didn't miilinl.ui eoiip taste better , while thu oth.-r- . went tobed , morn sensible tu tlm dump but heavy air of the room. At these evening talks u lew lie often came in ( o llston Lovnquo , who was excited nt tlio idea of sharing in such happiness ; I'D ( era , whom prudence sent oil'as soon as the company was attacked. Xachario somotiincs appeared ; but poli ties wenried him. Ho preferred logo down nnd lake n drink at Hnssencnr's. But Chavnl , who had become the lirm friend of Anton , wad moro forclble.wisli- ingblood , Ho passed nn hour with the Ma- lion's every evening , nnd nn unavowed jealousy had sprung up in 1dm on seeing the attitude of Cat her inn while Anton was speaking. Ho feared his comrade had stolen lua pirl from him. That , girl of whom ho had soon tired , suddenly i > o- came very dear to him when shu lived In the same house with another man. Thus Anton's influence beeamo en larged. Little by little lie rovolutioni/.ed the whole alley , whllo ho raised himself in the esteem of his friends. Mrs , Million , In spite of her defiance in the be ginning , treated him with the considera tion due n young man who paid his board regularly , mid who drank but little , spending all his spare time over n book , bno started his popularity ninong the neighbors , giving him the reputation of a smart fellow , for which he- was annoyed 1 being constantly a.sked to write their letters. Ho became a sort of man of af fairs , charged with the correspondence , consulted by the houso-wlves , in all cn.ses. So by tlm first of September ho commenced his famous saving fund. Not counting on the alley alone , lie wished to obtain the adhesion of the coal men in all the mines ; and if the company re mained passive lip wan confident of suc cess. Tlioy.appolntcd him secretary of the association , and ho made some small sums by writing. That made him almost wealthy , for though a married man was not nblo to make both ends meet , ho , a sober boy , was able to save a little. From the lln > t , with Anton , a slow transformation had taken place , some instincts of comfort , which hud slept in his misery , now showed themselves. l < o bought a pair of line boots , a cloth suit , and ho became their chief at once. All the alloy grouped around him. A feel ing of self-satisfaetcon came over him , ho beeamo intoxicated with these lir.st caresses of popularity ; irom being at tlieir head , a commanj'lcr , ho dreamed of tno next revolution in which he siumhl play an important , role. His face e.hauged , ho became grave , listening to himself til Ik ; while h's growing ambi tion led him into the nioM. radical ideas. Meanwhile the autumn wasidvaiicitig : ; the winds of October had ruined tlm lit tle gardens of the alley , tncro only re mained the winter vegetables , cab'bago covered with white Irost , leeks and onions. Again thiKstonn beat upon tno r'd tiles , iiimrng in torrents into the c.iMks under the "water-spouts , hi oacii house the lire was kept tip , rendering heavy the air of the small rooms. It win the commencement ot another season of great m scry. In October on one of the first cold nights , Anton , leverish sifter si long talk , could notsloop. ; Ho waited until Oatne- rinchad slipped into bed , then blew out the candle. She also appeared excitci. . In the. darkness sue lay its if dead ; but he knew well sue was not sleeping ; ami ho felt she was thinking of hinijusc as no Wiis of her. Never hnd their hearts gone out so toward oaeb ( Itnor. Twice he had raised trrmi li s liiflojv thinking ho would t"ll her of that Jovn-iio bore lor her , but Siiamo for tno Muo and place withhold h m. Almost an nour pnsicd away , aim t'toy htdl Inv with o'jun e.\es peeriiu ; into t'K'darkness ' asxiigfchcmsi'lves wha ; v.'as taat barrier wnich kept them apart.

This mammoth building ia at last approaching completion , nnd within two years at furthest it will bo n finished structure. It has already post about $ ! ,000.000 nnd when It is dim'o its aggregate will foot up at least $1(1- ( UMMHW. It is the largest building In Washington , nnd is said to be the largest grnnilo building in life world. It covers about four acres and a half of ground , or an acre moro than the capitol ; it is so built thnt it will almost outlast the ages. Its composition is of immense blocks of iron-gray granite , weighing all the way from a quarter of a ton lo twenty tons each. In the north wing of thu building alone lliero nro 10,000 of these big granite blocks , and in the whole structure the number of blocks of this immense si/o will nggrcgato about 50,000. The public .square of Cleveland contains about ten acres of space. The flooring space of this building in Its various storms will bo more than twice as largo as that park , and the pipes nnd Hues , if stretched out in one straight line , would reneh nearly forty miles , or as far as from Washington to Baltimore. The building contains four wings , north , south , cast , and west. The stairs of the north wing alone cost $ ; tt,00 ; ( ) nnd tliu plastering even more than this. Us lloors cost , $7'J,000 , nml thu granite work footed up over a million. In this wing there are $111,000 worth of bricks , moro than 9100,000 worth of roof , and the plumbingand tlmgas lilting when figured up for this wing devoted to the war de partment , equals about as many dollars us lliero are soldiers in the whole United States army. Thi' building is perfectly fire proof. Tt is made entirely of iron and .stone , witli I lie exception of a skin of boards which is laid over the lloors of the ofliees for comfort , and of the doors themselves. The doors nro of polished mahogany , but tlieir onsings are of iron , and there ) are M5 tons of iron in the casings of tlio window Iranles ami door casings of the c'uss Wiiig alono. The building lias hun dreds of windows , uml is perfectly jignt- cd and ventilated. Its ehamlcliors' will be numbered by the thousand , and ins mantels aril fireplaces by hundreds. It is so in-ranged thnt electric wires can be run through e\ery pnrtof it M > us to connect ono oilice with iill parts of tlio building On the desks of the secretaries , heads oi bereaus , nncl chief clerks you will see rows of electric buttons labeled with va rious mimes. If the secretary wants a messenger or a man from any otner part of the building , he touches si button ue- voted to him , and as lie does so a bell rings in thnt man's ollico , it may be. a third ot a mio ! away. A third of a mile , 1 say , : or tnat is the distance one goes over in passing around thu building , and it is nearly ( ! 0li feet Irom the nortu end of it to the soutu.
