one OF those good looking, reckless. nm
lucky fellows against whom fortune
seems to have a spite.
As Assheton came to the side of his
berth the dying man stared up with a
curious expression of defiant despair
Above him, beside him, all around the
deck lay other sufferers, listening and
watching to hear what ''the poor beg
gar'' had to say.
1t was hardly the place for con-
fdences, and Assheton felt fully the en-
barrassment of the position. Robinson,
however, had reached the time when
the world recedes into the background
of ope's consciousness and what has to
be done must be done at once or left
forever unaccomplished.
he feebly strove to take something
from under his pillow.
''CanI reach that for you?'' asked
Assheton gently.
I've waited too long, - said Robin
son. ''I intended to send this back my
self, but somehow put it OF from day
to day. Icouldn't bear to part with it. -
He stopped a minute as he succeeded in
lifting up an envelope, then he contin-
ued, 81 want to send this back to her
and tell her that though she sent me to
the devilI loved her to the end. He
added, as Assheton took the envelope
containing the photo from him, 1.-THE
address is written on the back of it,
''Is there nothing else can do for
you?" said Assheton huslily.
Nothing. Thank you, sir, - replied
Robinson, and Assheton felt he was dis
missed.
He turned away in silence and left
the hospital deck.
As he again passed through the dam
GERS the waltz was fastening to its con-
clusion, and the laughing, talking COM
pany were dispensing in search of ices
and comfortable seats.
Phyllis Welsh was still sitting where
Assheton had left her.
You weren't long, she said, smil-
ing. "What did Tommy want to tell
you? Do tell me all about it?''
Something in her words grated
against Assheton feelings. He sat down
and replied slowly:
He asked me to return photo to a
girl, and tell her that, though she
played him false, he loved her to the
end. I"
"OhP' cried Phyllis. ''How interest
ing it soundsl Have you got the photo
there? Do show it to me?"
"You must not ask me to do that, -
said Assheton gravely.
But Phyllis was not accustomed to
have her wishes ungratified. She leaned
forward and looked up with her won
derful dark eyes glowing. tWill you
refuse the first request I've ever made
you?' she urged.
"of course if you insist hesitated
Assheton.
81 do insist. must see what the girl
is like. Some common, vulgar creature,
suppose, that the poor fellow idealized
into piece of perfection. -
Probably, - assented Assheton dryly,
taking the envelope from his pocket and
producing the photograph.
With eager curiosity Phyllis bent
over.
For the space Of a second she stared,
rigid with astonishment and dismay,
then exclaiming, "Give it to me-oh,
give it to meF she tried to snatch the
photograph from Assheton.
1t was too late. Assheton, with blank
disgust, had already recognized the
beautiful likeness.
"Give it to me, +" she stammered.
Certainly replied Assheton. "It
was what promised to do. -
he dropped the photo into her hands
and strobe away. Temple Bar.

Interestinr oe.m stpdy.

Some remarkable observations on tho
longevity of germs in dust hhgo been
made by DIR. MIGUEL, Fre;igh bioiegist.
In 1881 some earth was tehau dii a
depth of ten inches and dd to
contain $500, 0o0 microbes per gram.
1t was then dried for two days in a tenn
perature of 80 degrees centigrade, when
it was found that the number had de-
creased to about 1000, 600 per gram.
The dust was then hermetically sealed
and put away in dark corner of the
laboratory. On opening the tubes after
a lapse of 1G years it was found that the
dirt still contained 100000 microbes
per gram. From the surviving bac-
terra the tetanua microbe was isolated,
and SO wonderful was its vitality that
it caused death in guinea pigs after an
Incubation period of two days.

GRAY DAYS.

Rare days In March, when mystic vapors veil
The eastern sky with cool, delicious mist.
Deep in their shRde styeet nature makes her
tryst
With youthful spring, and in some dreamful
sighs endless love. Could we but touch the
pale,
Soft curtains of the day that e'er resist
Our searohI just there, could we, unnotioeds
list,
What sacred joy our conscience might assault
Oh, days of grayl Through thy charmed at
mosphero
Steals a soft kiss Of comfort TO my brow.
To happiness my waiting soul draws near,
Dreaming those dreams thy draperies allow.
Life may be perfect in its howery May;
March half revels it in her days of gray.

IN THE LAKE REGION.

The report of the United States geo.
logical survey on copper is found to be
particularly ample as to the Lake pro-
duct. 1t says: The Calumet & Hecla
company has moderately increased its
product during 1898, but has not added
to equipment calculated to bring about
an early enlargement of output. De-
velopments on the Osceola lode are be-
ing pressed forward.
The production of the Tamarack has
continued to increase, having risen to
81, 1914 23 pounds of mineral in 1885 as
compared with %, $50 $50 pounds in 1897
and %, 62S,S S9 pounds in 1896. y further
increase is expected when the entire
stamping outfit is working under i'm
proved conditions. During the year
Sl2,9S3 tons of rock was hoisted, 1855
tons coming from cTosscuts, shafts and
wines, and the balance from the lode.
OF the total quantity 71,3O4 tons was
hoisted from the oldest, No. l, shaft,
which is 3.240 feet deep: 430,262 tons
from No. > shaft, 1856 feet deep, and
31,417 tons from No. 8 shaft, 1886 feet
deep. The No. shaft, ALSO feet deep,
is not equipped for hosting rock, but
may be later on, No. shaft. which
was started in the fall of 1885, is eX-
pected to strike the lode at depth of
about $500 feet, and since depth of
5000 feet was attained at the close of
toward the fall Of 1900 1t is not likely
that it will be in position for use for
hosting rock until well into 1901. The
equipment will rank among the great
est mining machinery in the world, so
the construction account promises to
be heavy for the next few years. The
hosting engine is now in place and
large compressor plant at No. shaft
has gone into commission. The COM
pany has completed a pumping plant
on Lake Superior with a capacity of
100000 gallons per "a hours.
During the year 1898 the two stamp
mills, with five and two stamps respec
lively, had a running time equivalent
to one head running 20SS days, stamp
ing 7S6,159 tons Of Tamarack and Tam
arack, jr., rock, or 35245 tons per day.
OF this quantity, $50 tons was Tam
araCk product, the cost of stamping be-
ing 22.402 cents per ton, while the total
cost per ton of rock mined was Sl.66,
and per ton Of rock stamped S2.ol.
The gross receipts for 1898 were 81
3Sl, 1885, increased by the larger pro-
duct and also by the increase in the net
