gan, and a lump seemed to come into
my throat all at once.
"Yes?" said Jack, interrogatively.
"He is-is-dead!" and I sat down
on the anvil in sheer despair.
"What! Jim Barton? Torpedo
JIM"
could only nod assent.
"Dead! Torpedo Jim dead! Poor
JIM" And great sob shook the burly
form of the drilIer as he CROPPED blindly
for the throttle wheel.
Softly we entered the little cabin and
stood in the presence of the dead. It
seemed so strangely that death should
come down and lay his hands on the sick
man under the health giving pines it
didn't seem like other haunts of death,
like funerals in churches and grand
houses, where sorrowing friends crowd
around the silver-trimmed casket and
take last look at the tenement of clay.
There it was pomp and worldly sorrow;
here it was poor, unfortunate James
Barton, Torpedo Jim, lying in his bunk
so cold and still and silent. We sat in
the little cabin q long while in silence,
each man busy with his own thoughts
and strangely affected by the presence
of death in the lonely forest. The night
wore on apace and after awhile Big Jack
Sanford, the driller. rose and went out
of the room into the early morning,
closing the door. carefully, as if afraid
he might disturb the corpse of his friend.
Hours passed and as one by one the stars
faced away and the sun came cleaning
through the tree-tops the to0l-dresser
and l dropped off to sleep, and when we
were awakened by the sound of footsteps
on the frozen snow we saw Big Jack
coming toward the cabin with . rough
hemlock box shaped like coffin.
6 It isn't 90 nice as could wish"
said Big Jack, as he deposited his bur-
den on the board table; but it Is the
best we can do.'

we had q red-hot fight. We were both
drunk, and when found was getting
the best of him wild thrill ran through
me, the devil took full possession of my
actions and before could think twice I
had stabbed him to the heart and my
hands were stained with the blood of a
fellow creature!"
The dying man shook with agony as
the thought of that terrible deed came
upon him, and his pain-distorted face
was lifted in prayer for mercy and for
giveness. 1t was solemn hour for a
stranger to that rocky countryside
death-bed confession under the moan
ing pines and the long shadows of the
giant trees casting their somber forms
about in the Pickering light of the gas
jet. A silence fell upon US suddenly !;
the moaning of the pines sank to the
faintest of whispers; while from afar
down the valley came the whirr and
roar of the bull wheel as the cable of the
heavy drill at the well ran with lightning
speed over the crown pully down into
the earth two thousand feet.
"Hark!" said the man whom death
was about to claim. "Big Jack is run
ming the tools and is letting them slide
so that can hear. It is the last time 1
will ever hear that sound. have heard
it often and handled the bull-wheel
brake many times. I never will again !;
no, never again on this earth"
He was silent again, and 50 still was
the wintry night that could hear the
thud of the walking-beam and the rattle
of the cable against the derrick. The
silence became absolutely painful, until
at last the melancholy face Of the dying
man was raised again.

A Wholesome Verdict.

DOUBTLESS tt seems rather hard to Luc3', who
was yesterday convicte1 OF manslaughter In
the Criminal Court. that he should be pup's1ed
for the killing OF person by ball fired from
his pistol ,sst Christmas. with possibly, as be
claims, no intent Of harm, The verdict is.
however. q step In the tight direction, and one
that ought to have been taken long ago. not
here alone. but In many other cities as well.
While. therefore, Mr.. Lucas may think that
be Is being treated with undue severity, IL
public generally Will heartily approve the iad-
ing or the jury. We have always had Ia tbs
country too much careless and promiscuous
firing Of guus. pistols, aud other explosives. by
persons who care only for their own anu e.
meat aud qualification, without any regard
for the safeIy, rights or comforts OF others. A
few convictions IN cases like this, followed by
an IL Fiction OF the SevereSt penalties the law
will allow Will doubtless have the good effect or
largely stopping such dangerous paStime. 1t
would be good thing too. IL, in addition to
these, a dozen or so OF the fool fiends who
point cooked guhs and pistols at the heads of
innocent people, under the plea that they
'didn't know tt was loaded" could get their
deserts Ia the same way. Then sensible steady
going people would feel that they had some Sc
curity OF lre and limb, which the lenlent view
heretofore taken OF such offences has never
afforded them.
In the proper aspect Of the matter Lucas
may fCel TOO. that, even IL he goes to prison
for lorg term, his case is not without COM
pensa ions. He can con yratullte him SELF that
he Is he precur. or, as it were, of a new and
better era ia human Affairs

The Virginia Situation.

tt anti coalitionisJs OF the republican state
central com rnttCe OF Virginia maintained their
asc ldsncy az the meeting held In Richmond
yes srdsy, though they appear to have made
sone concession In the interest OF harmony
TheIe was serious danger OF a division of the
committee iato two factions, and 1t was, ey,-
dertty, the purpose OF the straightouts to avoid
Civ ng the coaliJionists any excuse for oling.
Gen. Wickham promptly retired from the chair.
manship TO which he had been elected and j.
w. Cochran (coIoredD, who was one OF the
delegation which accompanied Gen. WIckham
on his recent visit TO the Pre- ant, was elected
In his place. The republican state convention
was called To meet at LynchbHrg on the 10th
OF August, instead OF at Staunton, the place
selected al The committee meeting held On the
21St Instant The coalitioni5ts are disposed to
shout some because they were not crushed
They claim that the change OF the location OF
the convention Is a victory for their side
because reaGjuster influence Is much stronger
around Lynch5urg than at Staunton. The
committee. however, had the foresight to ex.
clude from the coming convention all who par.
teipated in the readjuster convention. 1t ia
plain that the readjusters intend to make an
effort to control the convention. The
position OF the republicans of the state is
strengthened by the action of the com.
mittee yesterday. Had the committee
been rent into factions, each would
have laid claim TO regularity, and the division
would have been folio we'd by di5organ,z ,tion
As 1t is, With the entire committee Dining In
the call for one convention, whatever action
that convention may take must be final and
conclusive. The predominance OF sIraightouts
on the committee. and expressions of the most
prominent men Of the party Indicate that the
majority is decidedly opposed to coalition. The
followers OF Gen Wickham have shown by their
willingness TO meet the eoalltionists On COM
mon ground, hat they are seeking the good CT
The party, and are not actuated by selfish mo
tives. The question at issue between the two
wings OF the committee involves the policy of
the patty. and, perhaps. IT'S future welfare.
Therefore, IL Is proper that 1t should be deter
mined By tie voters who constitute the repub
ncan party. In choosing delegates to the con-
vention The one pr ointment question for the
voters at the primaries TO pass upon Will be
coalition on one side or a straight ticket on
q the other. Hence, IL is probable that the dele
gates will go to the convention virtually 10
structed by their constituents how TO vote and
this VIII not leave much room for wire-w orking
and Scheming In the convention.
