Alta. o 8H0F
A devilish thought rushed
through the mind Of the murderer
"Stop him, stop him. cried be
to some miners that stood in front
of the hotel. "Stop him, he has
killed the Prairie Flower!"
The miners saw the blood-stained
man rush down the street, and they
instantly rushed after him. Her.
bert had also heerd these words Of
fearful import. He turned and
gave himself up to the miners.
81 am innocent" was all be said.
"We'lI see about that, my good
looking fellow!" cried one of the
miners, named George Hosmer,
who was Herbert's enemy, drawing
a pistol. awe belong TO the Com

Come, Jim, run down to the fiat and

he, turning to bis companion, who

"All 0. X, you bet, replied his
captOr, with sneer, as he bound

1t was noon on the following day.
The trial was over, and the jury
bad retired to the back room Of toe
log house. An ominous silence
prevailed in the large ro3m; there
q as no doubt in the minds of the
miners but that the jury would
bring in a verdict of guilty. b
Soon the jury returned.
''Do you find Herbert Tudor gull
ty or not guilty" 2" asked the chief
of the Vigilance Committee.
Guilty! came like a death knell
from the lips Of the foreman.
Herbert had bowed bis kead, and
few hot tears stol,. over bis cheek
he was thinking of bis home in the
distant State, of his parents and
brothers and sisters, who would
mourn his untimely end. The voice
Of the judge reused him from bis
painful thoughts.
"Herbert Tudor, prisone, Of the
Committee Of Safety and Vigilance
if you have anything to say against
the verdict Of Jour fellow miners,
say it now"
Herbert rose with calm face and
said:
"They have given the verdict ac-

DON'T CROWD.

Don't crowd; this world is broad enough
For you as well as me;
The doors of art are open wide
The realm of thought is free;
OF all earths places you are right
To choose the best you can,
Provided that you do not try
To crowd some other man.
What matter though you scarce can count
Your piles of golden ore,
While he can hardly strive to keep
Gaunt famine from his door?
OF willing hands and honest heart
Alone should man be proud;
Then give him all the room he needs,
And never try to crowd.
Don't crowd, proud Miss; your dainty silk
Will glisten none the less
Because it comes in contact with
a beggar's tattered dress;
This lovely world was never made
For you and | alone;
pauper has right to tread
The pathway to throne.
Don't crowd the good from out your heart
By fostering all that's bad,
But give to every virtue room
The best that may be had;
Be each days record such a one,
That you may well be proud;
Give each his right-give each his room
And never try to crowd.

The London Nescs gives particulars
of the recent submarine earthqnake in
the Atlantic. Captain Christie, of the
bark Euphrosine, relates that when his
vesselwas in latitude about 1919 south
and longitude 4 west, the sky sud-
denly became overcast with dense
black looking clouds, and in all direc-
tions.. was heard q noise resembling
distant cannonading, while the sea be-
came tossed and confused. To these
signs Of agitation another was added
of peculiars significance, The compass
vibrated largely, and lost almost It's
polarity-a sure sign that terrestrial
disturbance of great extent and Vio-
Ience was in progress SeEeEA barge
metoers shot out from the heavens
phenomenon which can hardly be as
sociated with the occurrence Of eubma-
rine disturbance, unless we suppose
that burning matter had been projected
from some submarine volcano, and
that the flying masses were mistaken
by Captain Christie for meseoric bod
les. The fish jumped out of the sea,
and struck against the sides of the
Iship, and the trembling of the vessel
could be distinctly felt as well as
heard. Both the last named phenom-
ena point SO distinctly to submarine
