The last count of ballots to be

made yesterday and the result pub

from now until the last subscription
has been turned in by the contestants
and their friends, as no information
regarding the reserve strength Of

a waste of time to ask how many

Miss Mabel Boyd is again in the

as shown in the paper, has but little
to do with the actual strength of
the various contestants, as nearly all
of them are holding large number
of votes in reserve, and it may be
that those who are at the bottom of
the list below may be the leaders
when the final count is made. No
one should feel too sure of success,
but all should work with a determi-
nation to succeed. Turn in as many
subscriptions as you can and for as

ny, You dare do it again, you
wicked ape, and I'll take every
bit OF skin off your body"
At Maheu's new cutting the la
Dor was very hard. That part OF
the felonniere vein was grow
ing thinner each day, so that the
hewers, wedged between the wall
and the roof, bruiseo their elbows
while plying their picks Besides
the water came in more and more;
they were in constant apprehen-
sion of being flooded by one of
those abrupt torrents that split
the rock and carry away the men.
The day before Stephen, while
violently driving home his pick
and wrenching it back again, had
received full in the face a squirt
of water; but IL was only a
warning; the cutting got simply
more swamped and unhealthy.
Besides, he never so much as
thought of possible accidents, his
daily life having become like that
of his comrades, careless of dan
ger.
They lived among the damp
without even feeling its leaden
weight on their eyelids, without
perceiving the kind of spidery web
1t left hanging on their lashes.
At times, however, when the
flame of the lamp, burning low
er and lower, grew bluishly pale,
there was a passing thought
vouchsafed to 1t. A miner glued
his ear to the wall to hear the
kissing noise Of the gas which
exuded In little air bubbles from
the crevices. But the constant
fear that hung over them was
that Of a slip, for besides the in
sufficiency Of The propping, al
ways too hastily slurred over, the
rock scarcely held together, sod
dened as II was with the water
suddenly spouting out in enor-
nous jets.
Already that day Maheu had
been obliged have the props
strengthened. 1t was half-past

on his side, Stephen was Juggling

yet closed like the grave. The
injustice became too great; they
would end by asking for their
rights. seeing that even their
bread was taken from them. The
women above all would have liked
to storm there and then this
ideal stronghold of progress,
where there would be no more
wretchedness. Night was coming
on apace, the driZzle was falling
thicker and faster. but they
still filled the village with their
tears, amidst the discordant cries
of their neglected little ones.
That evening at Rasseneur's
the strike was decided upon.
Rasseneur himself no longer OPP
posed 1t and Souvarine accepted
1t as first step Stephen summed
up the situation in one word:
IF the company wanted the
strike they would have it,"
A Slip in the Mine.
A week went by and the men
continued to work, dull and sus-
picious, awaiting the struggle.
At the Maheus home the com
ing fortnight promised to be
worse than the last. AS a mat
ter of course Mother Maheu fret
ted notwithstanding her good
sense. One night Catherine had
not come home. When she re-
turned next morning she did not
go to work. She wept and said
il was not her fault. Chaval had
locked her up threatening to
thrash her II she attempted to
get away. He was becoming mad
with jealousy and wished to pre-
vent her returning altogether at
there.
Mother Maheu. wound up to
pitch, wanted there and then to
go 10 Montsou to slap Chavars
face. She did not do 80, but
GATHERINGS days work was lost,
nevertheless, and do what she
would the mother could not pre-
vail upon her daughter to break
with her lover
Two days after that there was
another upset. On Monday and
Tuesday, Johnny, whom they
believed to be quietly working at
the pit, went off to the Vandame
forest with Bebert and Lydia,
There was no doubt of his being
the instigator of the escapade;
consequently he received a sound
drubbing, applied in public by
Mother Maheu In presence of the
terrified youth and infant popu-
lation Of the village.
Had the Hike ever been seen
before with children who had
done nothing but cost money
from their birth, and who ought
to bring in something now, at
any rate? And the cry was, as

THE final squirt in the race for

.,,.,ra cement from the cities afar off.
THE Georgia cities have done their

testimony Of distant banks makes the
Universal approval all the more
manifest.
While Atlanta makes ready for the
coming of Secretary McAdoo, Secre-
tarv Houston and Comptroller VIII

IN whose hands rests the work of

Letter From Houston.
Monday letters and messages came
in from the national banks in sixteen
cries in eleven different States.
Among them was a letter from the
Union National Bank, of Houston,
Texas. a city prominent in the list of
candidates.
T. c. Dunn, the president, writes
that he favors a bank in Atlanta, and
another in Houston, thus obviating
Richmond and New Orleans from
the competition, so far as the Hous-
ton banks selective scheme is con-
cerned.
And that sentiment seems to be
growing.
Social Side Important.

sent the claims Of Atlanta before the

it cowardly of her son-inlaw to

their anger; she stood amongst
them, erect and stiff, her clenched

of all sorts of violent language.
This servant girl in a white apron

miners of Voureux go to the mine
offices to draw their fortnightly
wages they are astounded to find
a notice posted announcing re-
duction in their scale of pay. This
is crushing blow to the miners,
for by toilng long hours and
taking their wives and children

they are able under the present
scale to earn barely enough to
