rs wnen she sought the kitchen to assert
rags with old Aunt Eunice.
One afternoon following the arrival of
the daily stage she and the Kensel girls
proposed walking up to the village post
Office for letters. They were Joined on
the way by Fred, and at The Elms by
re-enforcements, including Mr.. Jerome,
Arthur and Jack. At the p~ostofice de-
livery Kitty Kensel volunteered Il call
for letters for the company.

"a dead letter. Oh, let's seei" cried
all the girls, budding together.
Jack Renshaw stood at Eleanor'srght
looking quietly on.
Behold her rosy check doth pale,
And palsied grow her lily hands;
She dare not rend the mystic veil

the letter.
Eleanor flushed and wrenched the en-
yelope in laughing contempt.
See if l dare notl' she exclaimed.
The inclosed letter fell to the floor,
with the addressed side c~onspicuously
uppermost. Jack stopped and restored
it to her, inevitably reading the super
scription as he did so. Eleanor at that
moment read it also.

she raised her eye to his, which were
eagerly regarding her The lightning Of
recognition flashed between them.
There it was, her own letter of a year
ago sent to the lead letter office on ac-
count Of an unfinished address. She re-
membered it all. She had written his
name, nothing more, that DAY when she
was %hesitating to send the letter. A call
er had interrupted and made her forget.
Then the maid had mailed it as it was.
So Jack had never heard from her.
and she had never heard from Jack
again.
Eleanor hastily thrust the letter in her
pocket and hurried from the office. fol

attention was already caught by another

until they came to where the old path
led out from the main road and through
the meadow along the river,
The shadows were long and cool, and
the golden sunset light swept down the
depths of the quiet water like a reflected
sky.

turn, Il think l see how it all was; /

Her heart beat thick and fast. She
would not trust herself to speak; she
only looked away to the sky.

as l would, not a little, but with all my
soul and for all my life, if we never had
walked together AGAIN.
Eleanor lifted her eyes to his with a
look which answered his fondest hope,
as they turned and went down the river

Lace making in America is still an in
FAINT industry, though the continent can
claim h only lace tree yet discovered.
1t is the lazzette, or lace tree of Jamaica,
whose inner bark can be separated into
layers of very pretty mesh. Queen Vic
toria has had a dress of it, presented by
the people of that loyal colony. His
Majesty Charles IL had only a cravat.
History does not record if he wore it.
1t does tell, though, of a wooden lace
cravat that must have been much more
desirable. 1t was carved by the famous
Grinling Gibbons in imitation of point
lace, and was SO flexible that It could be
tied or folded without injury.
The Duke of Devonshire was its first
owner. Gibbons gave it to him upon
the completion of Chatsworth, the mag
nifcent. In some manner it came into
the hands of Horace Walpole, who de-
lighted to wear it when he had special
guests of honor at Strawberry HILL

Side by side in the accounts of mining
disasters there is something that makes
the heart sink with horror and some
thing that makes it glad with a proud
respect for human feeling at its best.
The life of the coal miners at best is
hard, uncompromising toll. 1t makes
existence a daily t~readnill. The cheer
fulness which goes with some occupa-
tons in the field of physical labor seems
to be lacking in the miner's. Delving
in the bowels of the earth, where no ray
of sunlight can penetrate, and where
even the Pickering candle which lights
the gloomy hole is itself a menace to
life, the miner picks his living and earns
sustenance for his wife and children in
the hardest way.
hen there is the ~unspeakable horror
of explosions, OF ~suffocation from fire,
or water, or earth; for in mining dis.
asters all the elements seem to rise
against the grimy toiler. But in these
crises the true, warm hearts of his fellow.
workers show the exquisite fiber of their
humanity.
The rescue at GAINESVILLE is a beautj,
full example Of this. For nineteen DAYS
miners were held in a living tomb, I'M
able to do thing except wait and suffer.
But their brethren were digging their
way to them, working in relays unre-
mittingly, though with no greater hope
than that Of rescuing the bodies of the
entombed. Is there any human heart SO
insensible as not to feel the beauty, the
pathos of this? Such men are n glory to
their race.-New York Evening World.

usually says nothing, but just bushes.
The hole is always a genuine case of nc

Sometimes they gasp, so that we shall

ally tell the real thing. A successful

At MIDNIGHT.

Wandered at midnight In the graveyard;
The smell OF damp grass WAS in my n~ostrtlss
Iheard my heart throb in the awful silence.
As a headlong diver, p~lunging in the ocean.

The swinging surges pulsating above him;
Sees the Shiny keels Of dflgent vessels,
With bubbling wake Of ghostly foam in fur
rows.
And duh shine of sails swollen by tempestz
Sees Hdless eyed monsters Ioerlng past him,
And wrecks and drowned men constantly
sinking.
While the muaed knou Of the surf Is toninR.

JOHNSON CITY, TENN, April ga
recent issue of the Boston Advertiser
contained special from Baltimore in
which the assertion was broadly made
that "good Bessemer ores have not
been discovered in the South in pay.
ing quantities." and that we "carry too
large a percentage OF phosphorus and
sulphur to make good Bessemer IRON"
In the Times Of to-day l notice
Pittsburg newspaper has set out it's
own Ignorance of the question by de-
claring in substance that "the South
knows nothing about Bessemer irOn,"
and you very properly rebuked that
writer for his--own want of informa-
tion on the subject, citing, among 9TH
or facts, that johnson City is building
a furnace now for the reduction of
Cranberry ores into Bessemer siron.
Permit me to say that the furnace you
mention will be put in blast this year,
and it will be followed by three others
at this place as rapidly as they can be
built, and that in this immediate Sec
ton no less than eight large furnaces
will be in operation within the next
eighteen months. The fact is that the
magnetic ore near Johnson City pos
sesses the highest steel-making value,
and that it lie very low In sulphur
ard phosphorus, the best authorities,
Genth among others, reporting but a
trace of either in number of,analyses
of specimens taken at random from
the mines and from stock-house sam
pies. In this connection / may say
that / have just seen an analysis OF
pig iron made at the Cranberry fur
mace with Pocahontas coke, which
show of PHOSPHORUS .01G, and of sui
phur slight trace. This will, per
haps, cause skeptics to shake their
heads, but Doubling Thomases have
done this at every important develop
ment for centuries past. The Gran.
berry ores are thus proven to give as
good results with Pocohontas coke az
with charcoal
While the Cranberry ores carry all
the Bessemer requisites, the Lake Su'
perior ores, taking the average run,

1.-THE purest, best ore on the Ameri-
can continent, class and quality OF
ore the exact counterpart of which in
steel making value has not yet been
uncovered. Furthermore, if they are
looking for furnace locations, we can
satisfy them that the best Bessemer
pig can be made here under existing
conditions at a cost not to exceed $40
per ton, and that we can make steel
rails here at within a fraction of 81
lees per ton than it costs to make rails
at Pittsburg, counting $3.50 as differ
ence in freight.
The true Bessemer ores are abun-
dant in the mountains OF Eastern Ten
nessee and Western North Carolina,
and much as Northern and Eastern
manufacturers assume to disbelieve,
they cannon controvert it. This is
why the improvements at johnson
City for the past four months, estab-
lished and under contract, have gone
above 100000. This is why Prof.
J. r. Proctor (whose name is known
and hon pred wherever scientific geol-
ogy is ready and his associates have
purchased 400 acres OF land here on
which to put furnaces and other man
ufactores. This is why, after twenty
five years of careful thought and in
vestigation Of every section If the
Southern country, and following trace
after trace Of coal and iron and seek
ing the best quality OF both and the
, most advantageous place for their con-
version, Gen. j. T. Wilder found John
son City superior to all other points
and why he, having been the first to
manufacture coke iron in the South
will be the first to make Bessemer pig
at this place. This is why the head
quarters Of the Charleston, Cincin-
natl & Chicago Railroad have been To-
Gated here; why the machine and car
shops are to be here; why fine
union passenger depot is being built
here: why a 100000 hotel is now go
ing up: why the Carnegie Iron Com
pany is building furnaces here; why
the Carnegie Land Company has laid
ont and graded more than ten miles
of beautiful streets ) why Norfolk and
other parties have also graded several
miles of streets; why Highland Park
and many other additions to Johnson
City are rapidly filling up Jobe's adj
dition and others. This is why Col
G. H. Nimson, after twenty-three
years experience in iron making, left
Eastern Pennsylvania to come here
and manage the Cranberry interests
and who declares the output to be the
highest grade Of steel making ore ever
mined by mankind.
1t is why Mr.. Firmstone also left
PennsN lvania and came here to aid in
the development of the Cranberry
mines. 1t is why the wealthy Pardee
family have planted their hundreds oil
thousands OF dollars in our midst, in
investments in magnetic ore and 9th.
