Electric Light for Theatres.

It is more than likely that before long thu
 use of gas in theatres will be entirely banish- ed so far as Paris Is concerned. The fire at the Opera Comique has taught the author ities lesson which they have been quick and willing to learn and apply. A conmis- sion is now sitting, balancing the comparative advantages of gas and electricity, and the latter is sending the former sky high. The commission few days ago visited the electric laboratory at Grenelle, where com petent lecturer told them a great deal that was surprising and showed them some extra ordinary experiments. All sorts of infiam- mable materials, silk, calico, canvas, chips of wood and edges of old scenery were brought in contact with the light and showed no tendency to catch fire. There were con ditions, indeed, in which flame could be com | municated, but it was difficult to produce l them. The members of the commission were deeply impressed, and the era of gas II ! theatres seems doomed.-New York Press-

CHAPTER XVII.
HOME AGAIN.

She walked slowly down the hot and dusty road toward the town. Now, far more keenly than before her visit to the school house, did she feel the bitterness of her trouble.
 Along the dusty road she went-the high crops motionless on either hand, the land around (in sheeno of silver barley and yellow wheat, and the lustrous green of meadow grass) trembling in tho steam of the swelter- ing earth-and felt homeless woman, un- loved, an1 sinful too.
 She came at last to the shadow of the way side trees under which she had met Cuthbert; and here, with no eye to see her, and passion ate memories crowding piteous misery into her aching heart she stopped anl flung her self upon the grass, and tried to relieve her burning eyes with tears.
 A long while she fingered here, dreading to return home.
 Time passed rapidly and unheeded, and the shadows of the trees had grown we'll into the road when she rose to her feet, disturbed by the town clock striking the half hour after three. The thought of meeting her father was almost unbearable; yet home she must 20, for where was other shelter for her1 Before this time her fear of the deacon was | in his anger, when he should learn that she 1 had deceived him by her secret marriage. 1 Nothing more had her innocence then to dread; though enough had been here to furnish her with dismal contempla tion and trembling apprehension, and ar insupportab'e yearning for the permanent companionship of her husband, that discov cry mig ht never catch her without the pror of his love and presence at hand for hel weakness. But now her husband was gone and, by going, had left her exposed to dread full suspicion. He was gone, and she was lef alone to justify her purity, to encounter tn wrath of her father, stirred to his deepes heart by infamous d3ubt
 What then, was she to doa for when sh fell to consider how she should prove he mar iage, she found another blank as mad deningly perplexing as Cuthbert's disar pearance
 She we'll remembered the marriage morn how, with a faint voice and pale face, sh told aunt Rachel she was going for a wall and bade her not be surprised if she delaye her return, for she loved the pretty scener around. and to finger among the trees.

A BITTER RESOLVE.

All the evening Jenny had remained in her room. and had but now, at this hour of ten, which was even tolling, said goodnight to her mother, parting with her after long and close em brace, and with prayer that God would bless her for her love- Then did she lock her door, and sit and listen; and presently heard both father and mother come to their bedroom, and the murmur of their voices
