As the great. black train drew in al
Riverside Station, it shook the earth
so, that the inhabitants of the village
thought there was an earthquake. 4
young girl, whose dark, curly hair
had been blown astnay across her
face sat in the front of the car. As
the train came to a stop she alishted
and scanned the platform eagerly, as
though she expected to see some one
she knew. Phoebe Ganestone, for the
girl was Mr.. Snigg's niece, walked
quickly toward the platform. But Mr..
Snigg was not there It was now
half-past five, and the shades of dark
ness were drawing close Phoebe
waited an hour for her uncle, but he
did not appear. What was she to do2
1t was completely dark and she did
not know the way to her uncle's
house. Neither did she have money
to go home with. Phoebe inquired OF
the station-master the way TO Mr..
Snigg's house. He told her it was a
four-mtle walk, and directed her
down narrow street.
When Phoebe had walked three
miles she was tired out and sat down
to rest. But there was no time to be
lost, and she hurried on. Far ahead
of her, she saw a light, and tried to
reach It. Tho light prey ID to be in a

The planet Uranus, which is ad-
verse today, is now in transit through
Aquarius and its influence will be
more potent than it has been in the
earlier years of the century. AS this
Aquarian age will last until 1913,
many seers predict that peace and
harmony will not be worldwide until
that date.
One of the encouraging predictions
due to this influence of Uranus Is
that 1t will encourage progress along
every line of effort having human
welfare as its object.
In this spring quarter reforms in
the management of the navy will oc-
cupy attention. Great expenditures
and great economies will be recorded.
Disgrace for a high official is prog
nosticated. This win be due to dis

the government, it is prognosticated.

And thus it happened that when
Miss Ruth returned home she found
Mr. Charles Durand, artist, from the
city. duly installed and at work on a
sketch of late autumn.
II wouldn't give him his board for
what corn he could husk," whispered
the father that evening.
'FWhy, he don't know enough to
put a collar on a horse" added the
mother.
1t was a week or more after her
return home that Miss Ruth told hei
parents that she had heard of Mr.
Durand. and that some of his paint
ings had sold for twice the value of
their farm, and that she had made
fair headway as an amateur artist
and wished to take lessons of him.
The father groaned and the mother
sighed.
"Father." said the girl, you have
owned this farm for twenty years.
You have worked like two oXen-you
and mother. How much better off
are YOU than when you began?"
"TWo thousand dollars" he proud

"You have worked with your mus

about a hundred feet awGy from the
house, she stumbled and fell.
In the morning when Jim Snigg
went to milk his COWS, he found lying
by the roadside, the form Of a young
girl. Her face and hands were covered
with blood Jim Snigg realized in a
moment what had happened. The
girl was his niecei He lifted her up
and soon restored her to conscious
ness. He then summoned a doctor
and afterwards inquired If Phoebe
would live He really seemed quite
alarmed about the girl. Phoebe did
live, and at her uncle's request stayed
and lived with him.
The incident of Phoebe's accident
pricked Snigg's conscience for a time.
But seeing that not much harm had
been done to Phoebe, the feeling
passd away.
Phoebe brought light and peace into
the niser's heart. and they lived quite
happily together.

prospects in store for John. He found
work in a bank as an office boy,
where he got along nicely.
One day a lady left her pocketboek

ct once and in ample time to handle
the oat crop of this season. The ell

terprise will meet with the great
success that it deserves and we are

.ENT0MBED FOR
SIX DAYS; RESCUED
Nine Miners Still Alive When Res
cuers Reach Them.

Lansford, Pa, Oct. Anime min
ers entombed at Coaldale last Mon
day were rescued alive yesterday.
They were found on top of a
chute, in which they had crawled to
escape a flood of water. The men
are in the hospital and are expected
to recover.
The rescue was accomplished af-
ter 200 mine workers and company
officials had battled six days against
discouraging conditions in the chok-
ed up gangway. After blasting and
tearing away more than 800 feet of
solid rock, coal and timbers that had
been wedged tightly into the gang
way, rescuers reached the chute
where the pitiful group of huddled
was discovered. 1t was in
tensely cold, and the rescuers found
the nine men curled up in compact
mass to retain the warmth of their
bodies. All were terribly weakened.
It was learned that fish oil and a
few crushed chicken bones, found in
a dinner pail, had made up their
diet until Thursday, when
the latter "delicacy" gave out and
the fish oil composition, used in their
lamps, was the only item on the
