PRIDE IN SPOKANE FALLS.


Lewiston (Maine) Journal: Senator
Frye stepped in to shake hands with the
club few evenings ago. The conversa-
tion naturally turned on home industry,
whereat the senator, who is the prince Of
story tellers, remarked:
81 was in Washington at Spokane Falls
last year, and was entertained by one Of
the local boomers. He was patriarchal
old fellow with long beard, who looked
like deacon and was worth 5000, 900 or
100000.
"He took me out to drive behind fine
pair Of horses and showed me the town.
One Of the objects that attracted my
attention was a very long build
ing-a tremendous affair, one Of the
longest buildings ever saw in my life.
"'How many gambling games do you

my friend, the patriarch.

Pensions for COniederateS.

Georgia's Confederate pension system,
under which disabled veterans receive
from Is to $25 per month, according to
the disability, Is highly creditable to our
state, but It should accept and maintain
the home near this city in order to COM

vive the situation In other southern
states. Virginia led the movement and

massive though ruinous masonry, which
overhung the approach to the main en-
trance, and had doubtless been used in
former times as post Of vantage whence
the defenders might shower their mis-
dles upon an advancing enemy. This
turret bore the grim title Of "The Pit
Tower" q name fearfully explained by
the traces Of large circular opening In
the pavement Of the highest platform,
which, though now covered over with
molderinG and weather worn hagstones,
was still plainly visible.
Peeping tremblingly through the
chinks between these stones, Madeleine
looked down into a black and hideous
gulf Of unknown depth, out Of which
rose foul, damp, grave like odor that
made her feel sick and faint.
This then must be the dreadful pit
darkly limited at In 80 many Of her hus-
bands wild stories, into whose sunless
depths his savage ancestors were won't
to hurl their captive foes. Was this to
be her fate likewiseT or was she reserved
for the lingering death Of that wretched
traitor whose unburied corpse now stood
IN his enemy's banquet hall, lighting her
at her solitary meal?
Just then a soft strain Of music stole
upon the dreamy stiffness Of the even
ing air, and Madeleine, looking down,
saw near the foot Of the wall one Of
those wandering gypsy minstrels who
are 30 numerous in every part Of Hun
gary and Transylvania. he had evil
IDENTIFY caught sight Of her as she leaned
over the battlements, for he doffed his
well worn velvet cap and bowed as II in
salute. Then touching with . practiced
hand the small three stringed guitar
which he had just unslung from his
shoulders he began to sing.
But at the very first words Of the song
Princess Keretsenyi gave violent start,
and bent eagerly forward over the para
pet of the wall. 1t was q French song
that this Transylyanian minstrel was
singing, and, more wonderful still, 1t
was favorite song Of her own, which
hardly any one knew by heart except
herself. Nor was this all. The voice
which sang it was one which she had
never expected to hear again-never, at
least, on this side Of the grave.
Madeleine's heart seemed to stand still
as she listened. Had her ears deceived
her? or had the grave indeed given upits
dead, and heaven wrought miracle foI
her deliverance?
At that moment the last ray Of the set
ting sun, which was sinking redly behind
the dark green waves Of wooded mount
ain that surged upon every side as far Al
the eye could reach fell right upon the
minstrel's upturned face. Madeleine
gave a quick gasp. and clutched the bat
tlement to support herself. All hel
doubts were ended now, for although
the singer had the shaggy black hail
and swarthy complexion Of . native
gypsy his features were those Of her LOST
lover, Henri de Mortemartl

was folded like q letter. and on the out
side was written in the bold, free hand
Of her husband:
my justification-to be opened after
my death"
For one moment she hesitated, but in
defending herself against . man who
plainly designed to murder her such
scruples were manifestly out of place.
She opened the letter, and with q thrill
Of mingled horror and amazement read
o. follows:
II have offered up my third victim,
and something warns me that my own
doom draws nigh; but one more sacri-
fce at least shall be completed ere die.
Nevertheless IL my death be really al
hand 1t behooves me to leave on record
why this blood has been shed, that the
name Of Keretsenyi may not be soiled
even in thought by charge Of vulgar
murder.

Before the stamping Of his mighty foot

When the song ceased Madeleine
pressed her hands tightly upon her burn
ing forehead, trying in vain to collect
her disordered thoughts, and to devise
some way Of turning to account this un-
hoped for chance Of deliverance. But
she was spared the trouble, for Just then
the minstrel-as IL to avoid exciting any
suspicion on the part Of Keretsenyi's
servants, several Of whom, attracted by
the music, were now looking down at
him from the walls-touched his guitar
anew, and chanted the following sem
tences as IL singing the verses Of song.
lam your Henri, here to save you,
] know the danger In which you stand;
Have you the means Of making q rope lAdderl
II you have, nod your head
Madeleine thought for q moment, and
remembered the stores Of old hangings
with which the castle abounded, suf-
fcient to make q dozen such ladders.
She nodded, and the chant went on:
Make the ladder Of some dark green stun,
And let 10 down from the tower on which you
stand,

And bear you away by night
Then bright thought struck Made
leine. She tore q leaf from her pocket
book and scribbled en- it in pencil;
'Lose no time, for the prince may re-
turn at any moment, and this day fort
night l am to die. Twill begin to make
the ladder tonight. Heaven bless youi
M"
Wrapping silver forin in the paper
she threw 1t to the pretended minstrel,
who bowed again as II acknowledging
the gift, and singing his guitar over his
shoulders vanished like Q ghost into the
fast falling darkness Of night, In all
this the servants, ignorant as they were
Of French, saw nothing the least sus-
picious. Apassing minstrel had sung .
good song and their mistress had paid
him for it-that was all,
There was no sleep for poor Madeleine
that night. The excitement Of discov.
ering that her dead lover was still alive
and actually within reach of her would
alone have sufficed to fever every drop
Of her blood; but even this was com
pletely swallowed up by the tremendous
and almost insupportable agitation Of
this unexpected chance Of life Just when
death seemed certain.

behind her, was burst open with . tre-
mendous crash and Keretsenyi, with his
dark features all ablaze with fierce ex-
citement and his eyes flaming like live
Goals, came bounding on to the platform.

Those savage words were his last.

with terrific crash-and he was gonel
No cry came up from the blackness Of
that awful gulf, but far down In its
gloomy depths was heard q dull, muitled
reyerberation, like the sound Of heavy
body being dashed from ledge to ledge
Of Q seemingly bottomless abyss, and
then all was still. The last Of the an
cient race Of Keretsenyi had indeed gone
down alive into the grave, and the
ghastly prophecy was fulfilled.
What followed, Madeline could never
have told. The horror Of this crowning
tragedy was 80 great and overwhelming

and thought, and the next thing Of
which she was clearly conscious was
finding herself-she knew not how-out-

held q horse by the bride with the
other.

And away they went like an arrow
from bow, just as hustle and glanc-
ing to and fro Of lights within the
gloomy building told that its inmates
had taken the alarm.
BY daybreak they were many q mile
away from the terrible castle, which
was destroyed by fire only few days
later-a fit end, indeed, for that den Of
horror and death.

When the story Of the "Bluebeard

Fearful Experiences of a Fishing Fleet and

Fearful Experiences of Fishing Fleet and
Vessel From Africa.
LONDON. Oct. 1.-THE Yarmouth fishing
fleet has just returned to that port, having
been at sea since the commencement and
throughout the recent severe gales. The
fishermen report fearful experience. Their
vessels were considerably damaged, but only
two fishermen were drowned.
Among the vessels which have suffered is
the British steamer Ambriz, which belongs
to the line carrying the mails between Liv-
erpool and the west coast of Africa She
sailed from Liverpool Wednesday with
large number of passengers bound for the
Canada Islands and various ports on the
west coast. She had been out but short
time when she experienced the full force of
the hurricane. She shipped an immense
quantity of water. Her decks were swept
and her boats smashed. The water poured
down the companion ways into the engine
room until it was almost impossible for the
engineers to remain at their posts. Sea
after sea boarded the steamer, and it was
impossible for her to free herself by means
of the scuppers. Consequently the water
found it's way into the cabin, and despite
the fact that the matches were battened down
it also entered the hold.
