Expects to Return to Work.
This was the statement made to-

Of District No. 81, United Mine
Workers Of America, who expressed
his fear that the mine workers in
the McAlester fields would not re-
turn to work as they have been in

Cials.
THE mine operators sell their
coal to the railroads for less than

freight. That IS the reason / be-
lieve the operators can well afford to
grant the increase asked by the men
without even raising the price 10 the
public.

per cent tonnage increase. The oper-
ators could well afford 10 grant Il.

claim they can't grant the increase

SYNOPSIS.

CHAPTER I.-Writing long after the
events described, Jack Calder, Scottish
farmer, tells how, in his childhood, the
fear of invasion by Napoleon, at that
time complete master OF Europe, had
Sripped the British nation. Following a
false alarm that the French had landed.
Jim Horscroft, the doctors son. youth OF
Joining h army, and from that incident
a lifelong friendship begins between the
boys.
CHAPTER II.-When Tack is eighteen
his fathers brother dies and his daugh-
ter, Eide, seventeen years old, comes to
live with her uncle. Attractive personally,
intensely romantic, and seemingly feeling
little sorrow for her ather's death, the
girl is something Of a puzzle to the
simple folk of the Calder home.
CHAPTER III.-Edie makes a play
thing of Jacks affections, and though al
ways somewhat in W Of her, a feeling
OF deep love for his cousin develops in
III boys heart. Edie reproaches him for
staying at home in idleness while his
country is at war. stung by her words.
ne declares his intention Of joining the
army at once, but she ~persuades him to
stay. He tells her he loves her and she
apparently returns his affection.
CHAPTER IV.-Jim Horscroft returns
from Edinburgh, where he is studying
medicine. Jack tells his chum of his en-
gagement to Eide. believing the girl is
sincere. Some days later he witnesses an
unmistakable display of affection between
Eide and Jim and reproaches his friend.
Jim tells him Edie has promised to marry
him., she laughing at the idea of her en-
gagement to Jack. The two seek the girl
and she declares only fondness for Jack
but love for Jim.

Well, it would weary me-. and I am
very sure that it would weary you also

life went with us after this man came

he gradually came to win the affec.

women it was quick work enough, but

which was no such easy matter, and

it back in case he should have need

CHAPTER v.
The Man From the Sea.

Well, I was never one to sit groan.
Ing e a cracked pot; if it cannot
be mended, then it is the part of a
man to say no more of it. For weeks
l had an aching heart; indeed, it is
a little sore now, after all these years
and a happy marriage, when I think
of it. ButNI kept a brave face on me,
and above all I did as | had promised
that day on the hillside. l was a
brother to her, and no more, though
there were times when / had to pu!
a curb upon myself.
For the most partEshe and Jim were
happy enough. 1t was all over the
countryside that they were to be mar
fied when he had passed his degree,
and he would come up to West Inch
four nights a week to sit with us. NY
folk were pleased enough about it,
and 7 tried to be pleased too.
We used to take long rambles to.
gether, Jim and I, and it is about one
of those that I now want to tell you.
We had passed over Bramston heath
and round the clump Of frs which
screens the house of Major Elliott
from the sea wind. 1t was spring,
and the year was a forward one, Sc
that the trees were well leaved by the
end of April. 1t was as warm as a
summer day, and we were the more
surprised when we saw a huge fire
roaring upon4the grass plat before the
majors door. There was a fir tree in
1t, and the flames were spouting uI
as high as the bedroom windows. Jim
and l stood staring !; but weistared the
more when out came the major, with
+. a great quart pot in his hand, and al
his heels his old sister, who kept
house for him, and two of the maids,
and all four began capering about the
fire. He was aedouce, quiet man, as
all the country knew; and here he
was, like Old Nick at the carlins'
dance, hobbling round and waving his
drink above his head. We both sci
off running, and he waved the more
when he saw us coming.
"Peace" he roared. "Huzza, boys
Peace!"
And at that we both fell to dancing
and shouting too, for it had been such
a weary war, as far back as we could
remember, and the shadow had lain 50
long owe us that it was wondrous to
feel that it was lifted. Indeed it was
too much to believe, but the major
laughed u doubts to scorn.
AYE, aye, it isatrue," he cried, stop.
ping, with his hand to his side. 'sThe
allies have got Paris, Boney has
thrown up the sponge, and his people
are all swearing allegiance to Louis
XVIII
Sand the EMPEROR" I asked; 'will
they spare him?"
There's some talk of sending him
to Elba, where he'll be out of mis-
chiefs way. But his o~fficers-there
are some of them who will mo- get of
so lightly. Some sdeeds have been
done these last twenty years that have
not been forgotten. There are a few
old scores to be settled. But it's peace,
peacei" and away he went once more
with his great tankard, hopping round
his bonfire.
Well, we stayed some time with the
major, and then away we went down
to the beach, Jim and ], talking about
this great news and all that would
come Of ii. How little did Jim know
at that moment, as he strobe along by
my side so full OF health and OF spir-
its, that he had reached the extreme
summit OF life. and that from that
