you Gretl1ch, for she is down in the
dumps this last week or two, and
don't know what in the world is the
matter with her. / suspect it is some
love affair. but she will say nothing,
although I have asked her time and
again what is the trouble. Now, you
are such cheerful, conscling young
woman that l thought if Gretlich were
in your service for time she might
brighten up and be her own self again.
So, you see, instead of robbing me, / am
really taking advantage of your good
nature
II am afraid you are just saying
that to make it easier for me to be sell
fish; still, you are SO generous, princess,
that I am not going to object to any
thing you do but just give myself up
to luxury while stay in Vienna.
''That is right. All, here is Gretlich.
Now. Gretlich. / want you to help make
Miss Baxter's stay here SO pleasant that
she will never want to leave us.

said the girl, with quiet Difference.
The princess left the two alone to-
gether, and Jennie saw that Gretlich
was not the least ornamental appendage
to the handsome suit Of rooms. Gretlich
was an excellent example of that type
of fair women for which Vienna is
noted, but she was, as the princess had
said, extremely downcast, and Jennie,
who had a deep sympathy for all who
worked, spoke kindly to the girl and
endeavored to cheer her. There was
something of unaccustomed tenderness
in the compassionate tones of Jennie s
voice that touched the girl, for, after a
brief and Intellectual effort at self con-
troll, she broke down and wept. To her
plying listener she told her story. She
had been betrothed to a soldier whose
regiment was stationed in the burg.
When last the girl saw her lover, he
was to be that night on guard in the
treasury. Before morning catastrophe
of some kind occurred The girl did not
know quite what had happened. Some
said there had been a dreadful explo-

Philadelphia, Oct. 16.-It is expected
that the officials of the Reading com
pany will today take up for considera-
ton the proposition of the mine work
ers' convention. 1t is known that some
of the directors of the company are op-
posed to the abolition of the sliding
scale, which has for years been in OPP
GRAFTON at the Reading collieries. The
question whether the 10 per cent. in
crease demanded is fiat or to be part
ly made up by reduction of the price
of powder was settled by President
Mitchell. He said it was fiat" The
powder charge will be another griev-
ance to be taken up later.
The miners of Macadoo started to
marching aagin this morning, the OBJ
jective point being the Panther Greek
mines, where men are working. Sol
diers have also been ordered there.
General Goblin went with the troops.
The general opinion Of the mine opera
tors is that the convention has not al
tered the situation. They declare they
will not recognize the union, and that
their mines are ready to go to work
only upon their proposition of 10 per
cent. increase in wages, part to be made
up Of reduction in the price of powder.
