CIIAI'TKUXXIV.
At live o'clock it was very dnrlc , tlio
moon having gomi ilowu. Kvory ono nt
Dmiculin'.s wns iiHlui1 ] ) ; thu old brick
house wits nilunt and dark , with duor.s
inul windows closi'd. A bail ) v-kdit ] gar
den sotianited it on the ones siuu from Ilio
mine .miii-Hnrt. On the other sidu ran
tlio dexorlod town of Vnndtum ! , si "rout
iniirkol-pluco , three miles behind the
forebt.
Uotuuilin , coniplotuly tired out , having
pushed half of tlio duy uoforo at the bottom
tom of the in inn , was snoring with his
fnco turned toward Uiu'wall , wliuu ho
dreamed homo ouo was calling Jiim. lie
tiwoko mid , really hearing u voice , ran to
ojion ( ho window. It wns ouo of his over-
feuora , wlio .stood in the garden under tlio
window.
"Wliut's the matter ? " ho asked.
"Monsieur , it's : i htriko ; half the workmen
mon don't want to work , and iiavo coino
to prevtmt tlio other lialf trom going
down "
He. scrtreely understood , his head being
still heavy from sleep. A cold wind camu
in through the window , almost freezing
him.
"Compol them lo go down , " no slam-
moral.
"It lias been going on for an hour , "
resumed tlio overseer. "Then we
thought wo had butter come and look for
jou. Perhaps you can make them listen
to reason. "
"All right , 1 will go. "
Ilo dressed quickly. His mind had be-
conio olear now , and ho was very uneasy.
They might have ransacked the house ,
for neither the eook nor other servant
had as yet stirred. Hut from the other
sidu of the hall can.o the sound of
alarmed whispers , and when ho went out
ho saw the door of his daughters' room
open , while both girls stood on the
threshold , dressed in white wrappers ,
hastily put on.
"What is the matter , father ? "
LUCKS , the elder , was twenty-two years
of ago , a tall brunette , with n superb car
riage , while tlio younger , Jeanne , scarce
ly nineteen , was still prettier , being
small , with golden hair and winning
grace.
"Nothing of any consoqnonoo , " lie ro-
lilid. to reassure thorn , "itappears that
the strikers arc making some little
trouble at the niino. I urn going to see
about it.
Hut they did not wish him to go out
without first Inking something _ warm.
Otherwise , lip would return homo ill. Ho
broke away from them saying ho was in
n hurry.
"Lihton"said Jcanrio , hanging on to
his neck , "you are going to drink a little
glass of whisky and eat a eouplo of
crackers , or I sliall remain like this and
you will bo forced to carry mo off with
you. "
Ho was obliged to resign himself ,
though ho swore that thu biscuits would
clinKo him. Then , oandlo in hand , both
girls ran down stairs before ; him. In the
dining-room they hastened lo servo him ,
ono pouring out the whiskv while the
other ran to the closet to Una a paper of
crackers. Having lo t their mother very
young , they had been badly brought tip ,
spoiled by their father. The older wished
to heeoino an operatic singer , while the
younger was anxious to paint well.
When they were compelled to oil down
their expenses on account of the great
ombarassmont in business allairs , ihesy
girh , heiore so extravagant , beoamo very
direful housekeepers , who discovered the
errors of centimes in the familv accounts.
Now , they kept the purse , and cut down
these expenses and quarreled with the
donlors ; but constantly repaired their
toilets , and in other ways made the house
more comfortable.
"Kut " said Lucio
, pupa , ,
Then , noticing tlio pivoconpjed air into
which hn had again fallen , silent , over
whelmed , she again became uneasy.
"It must be serious , or yon would not
look as you do. Say , now , wo will re
main at homo with you ; they can do
without us nt lunch. "
She spoke of a parly which had been
planned for that morning. Madame
llennobeau was lirst going to drive to
Gregory's to get Cccilo , then she would
onmo and take thorn in the landau , and
they wore all going to Muroliiiiiias to
lunch at the l-'orges , where they had
been invited by the wife of ono of the
directors , for the purpose of visiting the
workshops , the high furnaces and the
coke ( ires.
"Certainly , wofihall remain at homo , "
declared Joanne.
Hut ho became angry.
" \Vhatan \ idea ! Ftoll you its nothing.
Do mo tint pleasure of going back to your
beds , and then at nine o'clock dress
yourselves and keep your qngagomont. "
Embracing them , ho hastily went out ,
and they heard the sound of his foot on
the frozen earth in thu garden.
Jeanne silently put away the bottle of
whiskv , whilu Lucid locked up the crack
ers. This apartment had the deserted
look of all the dining-rooms in which the
t iblo is not set. Horn girls took advan
tage of tljin early morning visit to see if
n > thing remained from the day before.
A helled napkin wan out of place ; the
servant must be roprimnndcd. At length
they returned to their room ,
As ho cut across the shortest paths of
the garden Deneuliii thought over his lost
fortune , that million which he had real-
i/.ed from Montson , intending to increase
it , and which to-day wast in such great
'
risks. It had been a continuation ot had
luck ; there were enormous ami unfore
seen repairs , ruinous explorations ; and
then , thu industrial crisis came on just
at the time when the profits began to tip-
near. If the strike broke out with him ,
it was all over ; it would kill him at ouo
blow. He pushed open a little door ; the
buildings of the mine were distinguishable -
able in the dark night by a deepening of
the shadows , lighted bv MHHII lanterns ,
Jean-Hart had not the Importance .of
the Vulture , but the relitting had made
it an attractive mine , acci riling to the
report of the engineers. They bud not
contented IheiiiBplvc' ! with enlarging the
fthaft titty metres and sinking it. seven
hundred and eight metres deeper , but
they had newly equipped it ; there was anew
now engine , new cage' ? , and all the im
provements provided by the latent ad
vances of sen-nee ; and there was a Mud-
led elegance even in the construction of
the BrrcenlnjTHhod , which was of artist e
shape : the lower waa ornamented with
n clock ; the . uperinteinleut's room and
tin ) engine room were shaped like the
nave of a church of the Kcnnissaneo ,
and the chimney rose nbovo them with
n mosaic snlrnl made of black and red
bricks. TIIC hoisting engine was iilaced
tion | the shaft of tlm gn ntat tlio old
mine ( Jaston-Mario , reserved entirely for
this purpose. Jean-Hart , besides that
for the engo of extraction , h.id only two
openings , one for thu steam vciitilutor
and another for the ladders.
In the morning , at 4 o'clock , Oluival
was the lirst to arrive , lie talked with
his comrades , and convinced them
thai they must imitate the
minors of Montsou , ami demand an
increase of live centimes per ear. Soon
the four hundred workmen went fiom
the waiting-room to the superintendent's
ollleo , amid n tumuli of gestures and out
cries. Those who wished to descend ,
took their lamps , bared their fool , and
pill their tools under their arms ; while
the others , still with their shoes on and
their coats upon their shoulders , owing
to the terrible cold , barred the 'haft ; and
the overseers made themselves hoarse
trying to preserve order , begging them
to be reasonable and not to prevent those
who wished , from going to work.
Clinviil was furious when ho sas !
Catherine in pants and vest , her head
covered with u lilne scurf , ready to de
scend. That morning lie had brutally
told her not to leave tnoir room at Mont-
son. She , in despair at the stoppage of
work , had followed him , all thesaniu , for
he never gave her any money , and she
was often forced to nay the expenses of
both. What would become of her if she
did not earn anything ? She was tilled
with fear , the horror of a house of shame
at Marelnonnes here so many of the
mine women , without bread and without
home , cnddcd.
"What in thn name of God arc you do
ing hero"said Cliaval.
fciho stammered that she had not the
rent and wished to work.
"Thou vou put yourself against me ,
fool. ( Jo back light off or I'll give you a
kick. "
"In four she shrank back , but did not
return , being resolved toseu how malt.Ts
would turn.
Deneulin arrived at the stairway of the
Horeoning shed , lu spite of the feeble
light of the lanterns , with a quick glance ,
ho took in the scene , that crowd among
the shadows , each face of which ho roc-
O"iii7.ed , the diggers , the loaders , the
wheelers , the pushers , even to the small
boys. In the nave , now and still clean ,
work paused in suspense ; the engine un
der pressure , gave out slight pull's ; the
cages remained suspended by the mo
tionless cables ; the cars , ahnn'doncd on
the way , enciimberred and ( lagged.
Scarcely twenty-live lamps had been ta
ken from their places , and others were
still burning in the lamp room. Without
doubt a word liom him would .suDiccaud
work would bo resumed again.
"Well , what is going on hero , my chil
dren ? " ho asked , in n loud voice ' 'What
are you angry about ? Explain it to mo ;
wo must understand each other. "
Usually ho was paternal toward his
men , oven though exacting heavy work.
Authoritative and brusque by nature ,
lin tried at lirst lo control them by a good
nature , which had the showincst of a
clarion ; ho often made himself loved ,
and the workman especially respected
him as a man of courage , always with
them in the drifts , and the lirst in danger
whenever an accident occurred at the
mine. Twice , after the explosions of lire
damp , they had lowered him by a rope
fastened under Ins armi , when the
bravest amonir them had refused.
"You sec , " said he , "von will make
mo repent that [ placed confidence in
yon. You know that I have refused a
guard of gendarmes. Speak calmly and
1 will listen. "
All wore silent now. abashed , and
yielded to him ; but Gliaval tit length
said :
"It's this , Monsieur Deneulin : We
can't kcqp on working like this ; wo want
live centimes more a car. "
He appeared .surprised.
"What ! live centimes ! What is you
reason for this demand ? 1 do not com
plain of your propping. I have not im
posed a new tarill on you , like the com
pany tit Montson. "
"That's .so. b' t the comrades of Mont-
son are right , ail the same. They won't
have the tariff , and they want live
centimes because they can't work right
with this poor pay. Wo want live
centimes , too , don't we , you others ? "
A number ot voices' approved ; the
clamor bo an again with violent ges
tures. Little by little they had all gath
ered round in a circle ,
Denoulin's eyes Hashedbut he clenched
his fist for fear of yielding to the ti-miita-
lion to choke them one after the oilier.
He preferred to discuss the matter , to
talk reasonably.
"You wish live centimes , and I admil
the work is worth it. Hut I cannot give
them them to you. If 1 make lhis nd-
vanee I shall bo ruined. You should un
derstand that I must make a living in
order that you may live. And I am at
the limit ; the least increase in the price
of labor would throw mo head over heels.
Hemomber , two years ago at the last
strike 1 yielded , 1 was not able then.
Hut that raisa of salary has almost
ruined niotliough I have struggled along
for two yoars. _ To-day I would rather
leave the business at once than not to
know where to got the money next
month. "
Chaval laughed disagreeably in the
face of his master who BO frankly told
them of his affairs. Thu others were ob-
Minato and incredulous , unable to com
prehend that a ehiu did not earn mil
lions from his workmen
Then Oonou in was loreed to insist.
lie explained hh strife against the Mont-
son company who wore always on the
" wjitoh , ready to devour him if tho'slight-
"est chance occurred. Just tit present ho
was forced to economise , the increased
depth of Jean-Hart had made the ex
pense of hoisting still greater , the unfa
vorable conditions of affairs scarcely
compensated tor the thick bed ot coal
found. He would not have raised the
salary of thu miners at the hist strike had
he not been compelled to imitate Mont-
sou for fear of seeing his mon leave him ;
but if they had done so although they
would have succeeded in compelling him
to give up his mine , they would also have
made their own condition more deplora
ble by joining the Montson company. lie
was not unthroned in some tabernacle
atar oil' he was not ono of those men who
paid managers to strip the minors , ami
who was never seen by them ; he was a
master who risked other things than his
money , ho risked his intelligence , his
health , his entire life. A stoppage of
work would simply bo his death. He had
no stock on hand , and moreover it was
iiece.s.sary for him to execute his orders.
On thu other side the capital could not
sleep without causing disaster. How
could ho keep Ins engagements ? how
could he pay the interest on the sums in-
trusted to him by his friends ? Ho would
be sure to fail.
"And it is just this , my good men ! "
said he In conclusion. I wish to con
vince von. You do not ask a man to ruin
liiinself , do viii ? If I should give you
tint llx'o centime * , or yon should join the
strike , it would bo cutting my throat. "
Aa he became S'lent , growls wore
leant. Hula part of the miner.- , scorned
: o hesitate. Several started toward the
shaft an if iv.Mihed lo descend.
"At leaiit , " said an ovorauur , "lot every
ono Infrt'O. . Who nro those wlio wish ( o
workJ"
Catherine was ono of Hip first lo ad-
vnnoc Hut Ohfctsfl , furious , pushed her
bank , crying : f\ \ \
"Wo'rc all to&otjlorj It's only cownrds
who leave tliolr comrades "
A rooonoilntion appeared Impossible.
The crirs hnd iignln coinincnecil , while
nl r'usk of nSnshlnrr iho willing ones
against tlio wall the strikers pushed
them nwny from Iho shaft. For tin In
s-taut tlic director , desperate , tried to
drive l.lie.iu bnok , but it was tisolesa , and
hu was obliged lo givoitp. Out of brotith
ho seated himself on n ohitir in Iho sup
erintendent's room , So uwarn of being
powerless Hint not nil idon ol what , to do
en mo lo him. At Icnglh lit ! became
ealm ; ho sent all overseer to lind Chavul ;
then when the Inttor had consented lo tin
interview lie went cvory ono itwivy with a
gesture. ,
"Lonvo us itlonb. "
Dcnonlin's idon was tosco what the
follow had in him , Ilo at ont-o found
him to bo viiln nnd devoured with joal-
ouiy. Then ho commenced to llattur
him , affecting to bo astonished that a
workman of his merits should compro
mise his prosperU in suoli u maiinor.
For a long time ho had had his eyc on
him for a rapid promotion , and hounded
by squarely oft'nring to make iihn over
seer later on. Ohaval listened ,
at lir.it quiet v.'ith hands clenched ,
then lillto .by little ho qniotod
down. Meanwhile ho began thinning ; if
hu rimaiiied ; in tlio sliiko ho could never
hope to bo iiKtre. than u lieutenant under
Anton , while now another step w a open
lo him , that , of being ono of the chiefs.
A Hush of prhle mounted to his face , ho
became intoxicated. Then again , the
band from Mont-son whieli hi ; had boon
expecting since early morning , would
certainly not como now , .somo obstacle
must have kept thorn back , gendarmes
perhaps ; it was lime to yield Hut. ho no
morn refused , with a ttliako of the head ,
ho played the tolo of an unoorrupteii
man , laying MX hand on his heart.
Finally without speaking to tlio director
about the meeting ho had given lo the
Mont on men at this mine he promised
to ealm his comrades and inlluonuo them
to descend.
Deneulin remained concealed , oven the
overseers held aloof from that light. For
an hour they heard Chaval har.mguing ,
discussing , ar. ho stood upon near be
fore the snpei iutentleiit's ojlico. A parly
of workman shouted at him , u hundred
> iml twenty went of'indignant ! , obstinate
in their resolution which ho had compelled -
pelled them in thu first , to take. It was
already moro Hum seven o'eloek. pay-
light , hnd long since broken on a bright ,
clear day , oold ami frosty. And all at
oui'u Iho noise of the mine began again ,
the work continued. Tlio machinery
was sot in motion , while the eablo began
to wind and unwind. Then , as thn .sig
nals were shouted , the desoent began ,
the pages lilled up , snik ; dovvn and rose
again ; the shaft swallowed its daily ill-
lowaneeof boylS , girls and men , while on
the iron flagging the wheelers pushed
their cars , maii-ingia thundering noise.
" ( Jroat ( ! od'Ldial n p you doing now ? "
: vid Chaval to Catherine , who was wait
ing her turn. 'JiVh.y don't you go down V"
At nine o'clock , when Mrs. iTennebean
ami Oeile arrived in the landau , they
found Lueio _ and Jeanne , beautilully
dressed , axyailing them. Hut Deneulin
was astonished on seeing Megrel , wlio
hat ) accompanihd iho carriage on horse
back. Hut Mrs llennebeau explained in
a natural nmnnur , that she was nfraid ,
the roads were so full of hard-looking
people , nnd that she had preferred to
erin < r u protcctblS. Megrel laughed , re
assuring them ; nothing was serious it
all , asu.siial , ended in threats ; not ono of
them would dare to throw : i stone into a
pane of glass. Joyful at his sueeess ,
Denenlin told them of the .subdued rebel
lion at Jeant-Hart. Now everything wa.s
quiet , nnd upon the road to Vandamo ,
after Iho young ladies had gottuii into
the carriage , they all became very cheer
ful in that bright weather , without guess
ing that , at tt short distance oil' in the
country , a lpn < ; murmur was spreading
out , while , il they had pressed their ears
to the ground , they could have heard the
tramp , tramp of tlio people.
"Weil ! it is understood , " said Mrs.
Ilennebeuu ; "this evening you will como
and dine with us and take the girls home.
Madame ( Jrcgory has also promised to
eome for Ceeile. "
"Yes , yon ean expect mo , " answered
Deneulin.
The landau st'irtedofl'toward Vandamo
and Jeanne and Luoiu look hack to sniilo
at their father who rein.lined .standing in
I lie road , while Megrol rode gallantly be
hind them.
They crossed the forest nnd took the
road between VaiidaineandMarchionnes ,
As they approached Tartaret , Jeanne
asked Mrs. IIcnnabea.ii il she know the
Cote-Verto road ; and when the latter , in
Kjiite of her live years're.sideiico in thin
country , acknowledged that Mio hall
never gone thai way , they turned into
the road Tarl-iret , on the edge of the-
woods , \\as an uncultivated piece of land
of volcanic barrnnnos * , under wliieh , for
some centuries , hnd been burning an old
coal mine. The miners of that country
told its history. I ho lire from heaven
had fallen on'thatspot ; for the evil doings
of the bo\s and girls of the mine , and it
had come down so quickly Hint they had
no chance to aseenil , anil that to-dn'y they
are still below burning in that hell. The
rocks of a dark red well covered with an
cllloreseonin' of alum. Sulphur seemed
lo grow from a yellow Ihnvor which
sprung up on ( ho edge of the lissures.
At night , the bravest ones , who had dared
risk an eye lo ono of tnose liole.s , swore
that they saw llames and ( lie wicked
onc.s'souls jus ! shriveling tip in the still
buried coal. .Stray light * rose from ( ho
ground ; hot Kteam continually poured
out. And thus , as a m'iraclo of eternal
spring , in the miil.st of that miserable
land of Tarlarct , the Coto-Verto was al
ways covered with green turf , il.s trees of
which the leaves wore constantly renewed -
newed , while its'AiMds had us many as
three harvests n year. It was a natural
hot-hoiiMi , waivutiUby the heat from Hie
burninir eoal , The snow never remained
there. The enormous growth of verdure
and the trees sjjri'liil out with ut having
Oven been reddjuj jl bv the frost
Soon the oarriaco rolled into the open
country , Megrel jokingly told the legend ;
then o.xplainudjiow the lire began at the
bottom of that | jiyiu by the fermentation
of the coal dust , and whim they could not
get control of it it burned on and on for
ever I In told i of'a mine in Hcgiurn
which they hiut'lliftrded without putting
out Hie lire , link hit became silent , every
moment bands.ot miners passed the car
riage. Though tljoy walked by in silence ,
angry looks H i\Ji' | > < ' * " * t on that
luxury whUili" forced them to
Hland aside , J The crowd be-
cnino moro numerous ns the horses
crossed the little bridge of the Scarpo
What was the Dialler that these people
were all on the road Hiusv Tim women
began to bo frightened ; Megrel began to
suspect something was going on in that
quhering country and it was u relief
when they at last arrived iitMarehieniii.s.
Under the sun. which seemed to itMin-
gnisli them , the rows of coke f > rcs and
the furnaces throw out their smoke , from
which the eternal soot tilled the air.
