that was dead. and that at II o'clock the next
morning should be lowered into the common
trench set aside for the poor, covered over with
earth and left TO rot!
The thought was so maddening that the faint
glow Of life went out, and for know not now
long all was oblivion.
When my soul recovered sufficiently for me to
catch the faint murmuT of voices in the room L
became aware that the vigil OF the dead had be-
gun, and / pctuIed TO myself Marguerite hall
Teclining there so pale aud SO beautiful, with
her long dark lashes cllngipg tear-mOistened to
her cheeks, and Smoneau seated beside her.
A rude humping and banging aroused me. 1t
seemed as ii some heavy piece OF furniture was
being moved into the room. A pitiful outburst
OF grei from Marguerite told me all. II was The
coffin.
'You have come too early" said Nine. Cabin.
"Put 1t behind the bed"
The men grOwled out some reply, which lost,
as they set the coffin rudely down in the place
designated.
Now came for me few moments of unhoped-
for comfort. Marguerite refused TO allow
strangers hand to touch me, and although worn
out with watching and weeping she began The
performance of the last earthly service she could
render me. AS Nine. Cabin saw her select out
my best clothes she murmured softly but de-
eldedy:
"YOu DO wrong-that is Just so much lost"
With an exquisite tenderness and genlleness,
as if dressing delicate and ailiDg child Mar
Guerite, aided by Nine. Cabin, began the toilet
of death. l could feel her touch, her arms about
me. L seemed to be in her embrace once more.

Der tears fell upon my brow, her breath famed
my face my cheek felt the rise and fall of her
agoniZed bosom, and my ear caught the quick,
duh beat OF her poor, sOrrOwing heart.
When all was ready Nine Cabin whispered
to Simoneau:
Sne must be taken out OF the room by force,
il necessary" and then suddenly MaTgueIite's
voice. in tones of half appeal, half threat, smote
my ear:
No, no. forbid it Spare me; on my knees
| entreat you. Let ME go. L command you
Mercy mercy !" and then there was sound Of
scuffilng feet which grew fainter and fainter
and all was still again. SlmOneau lad dragged
my beloved wife away from my bedside, out of
the room. and she would never look upon my

One of the men passed his hand roughly under
the nape OF my neck, and lifting Inc up thrust
the pillow into its place, iamming 1t rudely
down. Then the cover was placed in position,
and as the hammeriBg down began every blow
seemed 10 smite the very fiber of my brain. 1t
was the sharpest pang l had suffered yet.
Quickly one after the other, the nails were
driven home, and as the work proceeded no
tced that The noise and hum OF the outer world
grew fainter and fainter until The last quick,
sharp stroke OF the hammer seemed to deal a
death blow TO hope, and break in twain the last
thread which bound me to this life.

that moment my heart had been still, my blood
had chilled In my veins, and there had been no

that could feel my heart rise and fall and catch

need air, and at once, too, and enough OF Ii TO
keep my blood sufficiently purified to support

And now another terror seized upon me. II
was fear OF freezing, fear OF being oVertaken
by that iUsIdious desire for sleep, caused by in
tense cold, a sleep which knows no awakening.
But while / lay there suffering all these tor

and was at last enabled to quiet down and ask
myself the question, as there absolutely no
chance for me 10 escape from his living tomb

Gradually my mind cleared up. and with one
hand locked III the other, | began TO make test

and after a few moments reflection 1 reached
the conclusion that beyond all doubt was buried

The Market Steady at Both Ends but

There was a strong undertone of bullish SEN

day and there was very little. change until
about 2 O'Clock, when Oil City made raid and
caused a complete revolution. This was
brought about by nice bit of maueuvering,
first causing an advance by placing some good
orders, and then break. upon which she was q

particularly heavy. The range was: Opening

ment could not be held, and it closed at some
thing of from that figure
The railroad list failed to show such wide and
rapid fluctuations, though some Of the special
Ties were unusually depressed. The Coalers
were remarkably well held, and Richmond and
west Point was specially strong, though the
only reason for the advance was in all probable
ny the very favorable report of earnings on the

The weak feature among the specialties was

Inc general market was stronger in the after

The Post says: The heavy dealing in the
East Illinois stocks coming Immediately upon
the heels of the announcement of the practical
consolidation with the Evansville and Terre
Haute, which will certainly be for the benefit
OF both companies, naturally creates some sur
prise, especially as it is known that in the last
quarter the coal business of the East Illinois
mas improved so much that it has at least
earned that quarters proportion of the
dividend on the preferred. But during two
thirds of the three preceding sessions there
was continuous strike in the company's most
profitable mine at Brazil. and this in connec-
ton with the unfavorable character of both
this and last winter for all coal companies
make it probable that the dividend on the East
illinois preferred, which under usual circum-
stances would be paid in March may be passed,
or. II not passed, very much reduced.
