How many hours passed l do not know.
What night What night! 1t was very
cold. My fire of logs had long since burned
out in the great fireplace, and the wind
a wintry blast, charged with an icy frost
-howIed and screamed about the house
and strained at my windows with a curl
ously sinister sound.
Long hours, say, rolled by. I sat still
where had fallen. Frustrated, overwhclm-
ed; my eyes wide open, but my body
strengthless-dead; my soul drowned in
despair. Suddenly the great bell gave a
loud peal.
Il gave such leap that my chair
cracked under ne. The slow, solemn
sound rang through the empty house l
looked at the clock. 1t was 2 in the morn
ing Who could be coming at such an hoTlr:
Twice again the bell pulled sharply,
The servants would never answer-per-
haps never heard it. 1 took up candle
and made my way to the door. was
about to demand:
"'Who is there:' but, ashamed of the
weakness, nervcd myself and drew back
the bolts. Ny heart throbbed, my pulse
beat, threw back the panel brusquely
and there in the darkness saw u shape
like phantom, dressed in white.
II recoiled, speeches. with anguish,
stammcring:

"'It is I, father

"Truly l thought myself mad / shud

hand to ward off the apparition. 1t is that
gesture which has never left me.
Again the phantom spoke:
FEATHER father! Sec, / am not dead.
Some one came to rob me of my jewels
they cut off my finger-the-thc flowing
blood revived me-
And l saw then that she was covered
with blood l fell to my knees, painting,
sobbing, laughing all in one. As soon as

doctor.
He came running, entered, gazcd n
moment at my daughter in the chair, gave
a gasp of fright and horror and fell back
dead
1T was he who had opened the vault
who had wounded and robbed my child
and then abandoned her, for he could not
cffacc all trace of his decd, and he had not
even taken the trouble to return the coffin
to its niche, sure, besides, of not being
suspected by me, who trusted him so fully.
We arc truly very unfortunate people,

He was silent.
Meanwhile night had come on, envclop-
ing in the gloom the still and solitary lit
tie valley a sort of mysterious dread
seemed to fall upon me in presence of these
strange bcings-this corpse come to life
and this father with his painful gestures.

steps back to the hotel, and l shortly after

Steel and Magnetism.

The attention of the Royal Society Of
Great Britain has been directed to the
tlctro- chemical effects on magnetiZing
iron, the experiments being as follows:
From long finely polished rod two steel
bars We're cut adiaccntly, SO that they wcrc
practically alike in general composition
and structure. These bars were both
weighed and then immersed in equal guam
titles of cupric chloride solution, one of
them having previously been magnctizcd.
After a certain timc---6 to "a hours--thcy
were taken out of the solution, freed from
deposited copper and carbonaccous mat
fer, then dried and again weighed, the re-
suit being that in every case the magnet
lied bar had lost more in weight than the
unmagnetizcl bar-that is, an average Of
some 90 experiments showed an increase Of
corrosion in the steel, due to magnetic in
fluence, Of about per cent, under the COLI
ditions of cXpcrimcnt.-NewG York Sun.
