ere she came down stairs, thin, white,
shrunken-a mere shadow and wreck
of the blooming little beauty who
walked so gayly up Love lane at Ned
Hallett's side not quite a year ago.
She was patient always, and uncom-
planning, but she did not often smile.
Perhaps Stephen won these infrequent
smiles oftener than any one else, and
he counted them as precious payment
for all time and all trouble spent in her
service. Only once did he see her shed
tears. This was when, hoping to give
her pleasure, he brought in the first
wild roses of the season and held them
before her. Suddenly spasm passed
over her face, she gave gasp, turned
aside, and struggled for composure.
Stephen dropped the flowers as if they
burned his fingers and hurried out of
him. HE has ruined every thing for
her," he thought. "Even a rose re-
minds her of him. Coward that he is.
They hang man for poisoning the
water springs; why not hang him?
though hanging is too good for such a
villain as he.
Nature S processes of cure are secret.
1t is in their depths that wounds begin
to heal. Gradually as months went by
the renovating principle worked in
Milly. She resumed her place at home,
the little duties and pleasures, and
took up again the burdens of life. She
was pale still, but the paleness infolded
sweet serenity which was no less
lovely than her girlish bloom. ''Milly
Graves was real improved since her
disappointment" certain severe old
aides asserted. and they were not far
from right. Stephen adored her more
| than ever. Two years later he told her
so. To his surprise, she was neither
astonished or shocked, but looked in
his eyes with smile which was sad
and tender and sweet all at once.
''Dear Stephen she said, ''this is
just like you. Do you recollectthe day
in Love lane, and the rose you picked
up out of the dust? You are doing the
same thing now, but am not worth
it, dear. not worth the picking up"
'.Milly," said Stephen, trembling
with eagerness, ''there never was day
since l first saw you. and that was
twenty-one years ago. when [ didn' t
love you beyond any other living thing.
Pick you up, indeed! You, my rose of
all the world! l am not fit to touch
your stem, my darling, or handle one
of your leaves, but | love you, dearest,
with the whole of my heart. Can you
not love me little bit in return?''
go, Stephen, dor and the fair little
fingers closed over his. There's no.
body in the world like you. I always
knew that. It's only-the others are
so much fresher, you know-fresher
and brighter, and-they might make
you happier than can. You're quite
sure? You really want me? Thenrll
do my best. Why, Stephen, how hap
py you look
''Happy! should think so, when
I've got every thing ever wanted in
my life,' cried Stephen.-Pittsburgh

A VOLCANIC WAVE.

"Reminiscences of the Devastation Wrought
by the Great Krakatoa Eruption.
The Krakatoa eruption which, two
years ago, devastated a large part of
the island of Java, was aided in its
deadly work by volcanic wave one
hundred and twenty feet high. In
credible as seems this stupendous as
sertion, it is supported by a reasonable
inference from two or three facts.
AT the Marak stone quarries there is
hill one hundred feet high, overlook
ing the sea. on which the resident en-
gineer had erected large brick house.
This massive building was RACED to the
ground by the volcanic wave. 1t
washed away the walls as neatly as if
they had been sliced off with u knife,
leaving nothing but the marble floors,
which rested on the strong foundations.
The English chaplain at Bataira, who
explored the devastated district, met a
Javanese laborer, one of the survivors
of the deluge. On the fatal day, as he
was working in a rice-field, long way
from the sea-coast, he heard noise.
Looking around, he saw "a great black
thing long way off coming towards
us"
1T was very high" he said, .'and
we soon saw that it was water. Trees
and houses were washed away as it
came along. Not far off was steep,
sloping ground. We ran towards it,
and tried to climb up out of the way of
the water. 1t was too quick for most
of them. Many were drowned almost
at my side. | managed to get long
way mp. The water came very near
me. looked back and saw the wave
wash the people down, as they tried to
scramble out of its way. There was a
general rush to climb up in one par
ticular place. This caused great
block. Many got wedged together and
could not move. Then they struggled
and fought, screaming and crying. Those
| below tried to make those above them
move on by biting their heels. For a
few minutes there was great struggle
| then all was over. One after another
they were all washed down by the rush
ing waters. Some of those washed
down dragged others with them. Many
were high enough up to have escaped
| if they had not been dragged down by
the death-g grip of their companions.
Fifty thousand souls perished, ant
vessels passed through, in the streets
of Loenda, hundreds of dead bodies. -

The Age of Fishes.

Prof. Baird says there is nothing to
prevent fish from living indefinitely,
as it has no period of maturity, but
grows with each year. He is authority,
likewise, for saying that carp have at
tanned an age of two hundred years.
He also says that within fifty years a
pike was living in Russia whose age.
according to tradition, dated back to
the fifteenth century. The Russian
Minister says that in the Royal Aqua
rum in St. Petersburg there are fish
to-day that have been known by the
records to have been there one hundred
and forty years. Some of them are,
he says. over five times as large as
when they were captured, while others
have not grown an inch in length

The Church Army is an evangel-

adopt the native speech.

A SHIP-DESTROYER.
Prof. Tuck's Submarine Torpedo-Boat-
Trial Trip of the Strange Craft.

Prof. Tuck's Submarine Torpedo Boat
Trial Trip of the Strange Craft.
Persons walking along Riverside
drive at Eighty-sixth street the other
afternoon saw black object skim
ming along on the surface of the Hud-
son. Then they didn't see it for long
time. Then it would appear at a dis
tance. The object was a submarine
torpedo-boat, the work of Prof. j. L.
Tuck, who showed it off to a few
friends. The boat is intended to ap-
proach big naval vessel during war
times under water and, having left a
couple of torpedoes under her hull, to
withdraw to a convenient distance and
fire them by means Of an electric cur
rent from battery. The little craft
of iron and steel, weighing twenty
tons, is named the Peacemaker. She
is thirty feet over all. eight and
one-half feet breadth of beam and six
feet deep. Placed at each side of the
keel is enough lead to load the boat
to the waters edge. To sink the vessel
below the water there are compart-
ments which can be filled or emptied
as required. Compressed air is held in
iron pipes, to be liberated as the air
grows foul. A common rudder steers
the craft, anda horizontal rudder, CEN
trally hinged in frame at each side
| of the stern, raises or sinks the boat.
On top is a little dome twelve inches
high and fourteen inches in diameter,
with glass windows for light.
When ship is to be blown up. as
the boat passes beneath her string OF
insulated wire carrying two cartridges,
one at each end, isreleased. The cart
ridges are filled with powerful ex
plosive and are lightened with corks,
so that they will rise against the bottom
of the vessel. Then by means of the
electric battery, after the boat has with
drawn, the explosion is effected. The
little craft dived to depth of forty feet
in the river, and then took a subma,
rine trip up toward Yonkers, remain
ing under water over seven minutes
The trials were success, and tht
gentlemen interested in the boat wei
pleased. Prof. Tuck said she had made
twelve miles an hour, and that she
could remain under water several hours
