In the Jaws of Death.
In the Jaws of Death. MORE ABOUT ETNA'S AWFUL VOYAGE. Others of her Crew are Interviewed and tell of More Horrors Experienced. The story given by a Swansea seaman of the awful voyage of the death ship Etna was of 10 extraordinary and sensational a character that we on Friday took steps to see whether i was corroborated by other members of the crew who had arrived, at Swansea. The first outline of the terrible affair was, it will be remembered, published in the Western Mail more than a month ago, and was contained in a letter addressed by Mr. W. Morgan from Yambo to his relatives in Swansea. Now that the sur- vivors have arrived home the full details have been given. James Darmody, fireman, living at 9, Upper Strand, on being asked if the report pub- liehed in the papers was true, said it was, every word of it—in fact, it was not half stroing enough to describe what they had gone through. Darmody, who appeared to be in a shaky state, said he was not yet quite well, as at times he felt the effects of the voyage and the cold he suffered after his things ware burnt. His tale of sea horrors was much the same as Jenkins's, and he seemed specially horrified at the deaths of his Swansea neighbours. "Were you ill?" we asked. "I had the diarrhoea, but not the cramp. It is the cramps which are so horrible, A man sits with his body c rouched up atiJf. Sometimes in this state they died in an hour, sometimes in a day." "How many pilgrims died altogether?" was asked. "God knows," he replied; "they were; dying off by scores. There must have been a couple of thousand altogether." "Has the Board of Trade taken any action in the matter as,yet? Have yju had any communication?" No, not up to the present, but we all gave our names and addresses, and are ready to be called whenever necessary." Another resident of the Strand, named Thos. M'Farren, who was third engineer on board the Tessel, was also visited, but he was not at home. His relatives, however, said that M'Farren was ready to testify that the story was quite true, and came far below the real facts, which no one could describe. To tell you the truth," said his young brother, he doesn't care to allude to the subject. he says it makes him sick even now te think of it." Did your brother suffer ?" "No, he was about the best off of the lot. He was able to work all through, and he was about the only one who was. The ship was not properly constructed to carry pilgrims, or else, perhaps, it would not have happened. In the proper ships they have the means to keep them under control." The youth then referred to "scald holes," whicA he declared, on his brother's authority, were in all the pilgrim ships, and down which hot water could be poured on the pilg-ims if they grew beyond the control of the crew. "My brother," he eontinued, says they were dying all round, and when they could no longer pitch them over- board, owing to the Suez Canal watchers being on the look-out, it grew more pestilential than ever with the bodies kanging round the hull. They were looking out at night for tinges when there were no lights about to cut a body away and let it go into the canal. There were armed soldiers along the route, who would speedily bring the vessel to if it were found out." "Your brother was able to work ?" Yes he was not ill, but he is the shadow of what he was when he left Swansea.. There was no one to attend to the fires. He at last -got six Arabs into the stoke-hole to help him, for the vessel was only just moving along, owing to the want of xteam. But they could not shovel coal. They threw most of it on the floor, and then began shying lumps of coal about, till my brother had to clear them out. He says the sea water was nearly boiling. He tested it as it was put into the boilers, and it was at 90 degrees." Oh, yes," said the brother, as we left, "it's all true, only fifty times worse."

TURNS OUT TO BE A LADY.I
TURNS OUT TO BE A LADY. Chicago Eisteddfod Officials get a Surprise. The laet issue of the Welsh-American paper "Columbia" contains the following:—It will interest all eisteddfod people to know that Faith," the prize-winner on Christopher Columbus at the International Eisteddfod, G. H. Leader, of London, is not a "gentleman" at all, but a young lady. After sir-ing her in his best style, the secretary, we are told, when he received the following letter, fen the "sweetest rebuff of his life." A photo, and a sketch of the author were asked for, and the fair authoress will pardon us for publish- ing her letter of response without daring to mar its pathos and poetic temper. The Den- ver friends-donors of the "Silver Eagle" as part of the prize—and all as for that, will be pleased to read" Faith's" letter, which is as follows: W. APMADOC, ESQ., Dear Sir,—As the glad winner of the "Christopher Columbus prize is not a gen- tleman, and could not tolerate publicity, the few following facts must suffice. Born in London, and living there all her life, she panted for the country, the hills and the valleys, the birds and the trees, the far-stretch- ing reaches of sky and country. But more than one heart's desire God giveth to those that trust Him. And in ordinary, every- day life, living among the crowded working multitudes of London and as one of them, she found, and finds, the charm of a presence that transfigures bricks and mortar, and homely 'u work, and all the many sided phases of London life, into a more-than-nature's unfolding of God's beauty and light and love. A few stray thoughts of the truths she has learnt or is learning found a fitting field for ex- pression in the story of another's life, as given in Christopher Columbus." For the rest, she is a Sunday School teacher, and nothing at all besides, and as a great many people still look upon her as "only a girl," she trusts you will pardon all seeming ungraciousness in her absolute refusal to be set on a newspaper pedestal to be looked at. Neither does she see publicity to be a necessary sequence of such a simple thing as trying to do a little where she cannot do much for a cause very near to her heart.- Yours sin- cerely, G. H. LEADER.
" That Wretched Man Zola."
That Wretched Man Zola." The National Protestant Congress closed at Bath on Thursday. Mr. J. E. Matheson, of London, who presided at the final meeting, in his address said he was pleased to see that at the Church Congress t\e Bishop of Worcester was courageous enough to speak to the journals of this country in no measured tones for the patronage which they had been giving to that wretched man Zola. He believed that this man, whom the journals were lauding to the skies when he came over to tLis country, had done more to spread abominatfons of every kind in the minds and hearts &f the young than any other man of his time.

Rees Morgan, Bethlehem, St. Clears, as a trustee of a.1 endowment connected with Bethle- hem Chapel, St. Clears, appeared before the court on the last occasion, and gave evidence concerning the endowment, which consisted of house and land.—On tha application of Mr. James John, an order was made on Friday calling upon Mr. Morgan to show cause why a distraint for tithes should not be issued against him.
! A New Steamer for Cardiff.
A New Steamer for Cardiff. On Tuesday afternoon a fine steel steamer, built to the order of the Castro Steamship Company (Limited), managed by Messrs. G. H. Wills and Co., Cardiff, was successfully launched from the ship building-vard of the Campbelltown Ship Building Company, on the Clyde, and on the following day was towed to Greenock, where she will take in her engines. The new vessel Mas named the Corso." She is classed 100 A1 at Lloyd's special survey, aiid has a guaranteed dead weight capacity c.t 1,900 tons, but is expected to load to 1,950 tons on a water draft of 16 8-12ft. The Corso is fitted with all the latest improvements, including steam steering gear, ¡our steam winches, and other necessary appliances for rapid loading and discharging of cargoes. Her engines are of the triple expansion type, the diameter 6f the cylinders being Inin., 27i11. and 45in. respec- tively, with a 33in. stroke. The engines, which are constructed to work at a pressure of 1601b. to the square inch, are estimated to propel the steamer at the rate of nine knots and a half on a small consumption of coal. The Corso is expected to arrive in Cardiff about the middle of November, from which port she will make her maiden voyage.

He could only say he took it as a very great compliment.
Consecrating a Works.
Consecrating a Works. A SINGULAR CEREMONY IN FRANCE. A New Tinworks Opened by Priests who Performed Religious Ceremony and Sprinkle Holy Water. A singular ceremony took place at Basse Indre, France, last Sunday. Basse Indre is about four miles from Nantes, and Messrs. Leon, Langlois, and Co., the owners of a large steelworks in the district, have within the past twelve months established a new tinworks, in order to meet the demands of their customers in France for tin-plates. MR. THOMAS DAY. The firm in question have had for several years a washhouse at Nantes, and have bought black plates, which they coated and supplied to their customers. So great, however, was the demand that they determined to build a tinworks at which they could manufacture their own plates. A site near their large steelworks was selected for this purpose, and in the course of some months two mills were ready to be started. The works have been constructed upon the most modern principles, and in a letter received from one of the Welsh residents by a friend in Wales some months ago he stated that it would do any Welsh tin-platers' eyes good to go over the Franco-Welsh manufactory. The manager of the new works is Mr. Thomas Day, late manager of the Waterloo Works, I Mr. Day presented with a bouquet pi flowers.

Machen, and an'old Melingriffith boy. Mr. Day is well known throughout the tin-plate world as a thoroughly experienced and practical work- man. Mr. Day has also succeeded in obtaining the services of many Welsh tin-platers to carry on the undertaking, among them being Messrs. Edwin Lloyd (Machen), J. Griffiths and three or four others from Ystalyfera J. Rowlands, Whitchurch; M. Buckley, Taff's Well; J. Thomas, Melingriffith, as well as workmen from Abercarn, &c. The gentleman who has for many years been in charge of the finis- ng department is Mr. Abraham Stephens, of Machen. In gay France—where Sunday is evenly divided between religion and plpasuib it is usual to consecrate industrial works in the same way as English and Welsh people conse- crate churches and chapels in this Sunday- observing country. This interesting event came off last Sunday. A procession was formed in the village, and, beaded by a brass band and three or four priests, marched to the works, where a stage had been The Priest sprinkling holy water as he proceeded.

erected. After going through the consecrating ceremony, the master and general manager, accompanied by the priests, went through the works, the latter sprinkling holy water as they proceeded, after which M. Langlois mounted the stage and, in a congratulatory speech, spoke in the highest terms of the Welsh resi- dents, and also paid a high compliment to Mr. Day's abilities. At the close of his remarks he called upon Mr. Day, Mr. I A. Stephens, and two of the rollers, and handed them a bouquet of flowers, which is considered a high tribute in France. About 2,000 people witnessed the ceremony. Later in the day a treat was given to the workmen. The Welsh workmen live near the works, in a row of houses which have been built specially for them, and which they have christened "Machen-terrace." A Sunday school has also been established, where the Welsh and English Bible is read and studied, a supply having been sent from London. Arrangements have also been made with a Protestant preacher who resides at Nantes to deliver an English sermon once a fortnight.
THE NEATH ASSAULT.
THE NEATH ASSAULT. Prisoners are Committed to the Assizes. At the Neath County Police-court on Friday afternoon-before Messrs. J. B. Paddon and G. H. Davey-David Hopkins, William Hughes, and Isaac Matthews, tinworkers, Tonna, were charged with feloniously and maliciously wounding Daniel Evans, farm bailiff, Gellydeg Farm, on the night of the 14th inst.—Mr. H. P. Charles appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. E. Powell for the defence.—The injured man was with difficulty brought to the ceurt. He was in a pitiable condition, his head and face being covered with plasters. He was still suffering acutely from the effects of the brutal assault, for he groaned frequently, and with great difficulty gave his evidence. Daniel Evans said that he was in the Royal Oak on the evening of the 14th inst., where a meeting of the money club had been held. Isaac Matthews said to him, What are you bother- ing about the old net for?" Prisoner then got up and commenced swearing. Witness said, If you want to talk to me come out to the back." They proceeded thither, and after a while prisoner said he wanted to fight and rolled up his sleeves. He afterwards said, however, You are a better man than me, but there are plenty in the house that can beat you." Witness then returned to the house, and after stop-tap was proceeding along the road when he met Hopkins and other men, who came on like a shower" and beat him severely. When he escaped and proceeded on his way he was over- taken by a crowd, amongst whom was David Hopkins, who shouted "What is the matter here f" Witness said, Dan, you will pay dear for this." In a dazed condition he got to Neath, where he consulted Dr. Whittington. He had several wounds about his head, o,nd he suffered from pains in his ribs. He had had no pain prior to the assault, but afterwards the blood streamed like a river from his face. In cro'ss-examination, complainant said that be had drank about two pints of beer in the Royal Oak. That was all he had partaken of that day'. He invited Isaac Matthews to the back to see what the latter had against him-not to have a fight with him. The assault took place in a very dark spot. He could swear that more than Hopkins was beating him," although he could not see them. David Rees, a lad, said that he saw several persons rush on to Evans when he was on the ground. Witness could not say whether the men "punched" Evans or not because there was such a rush. Several large stones were thrown. Thomas Davies, assorter, tinworks, Tonna, said he knew Hopkins was striking Evans, for he pulled him away. Police-sergeant Herbert deposed that the prisoners all denied any assault on Evans. Police-sergeant Williams then produced the prosecutors' clothes, which were covered with blood. Dr. T. P. Whittington having described the injuries, Mr. Powell urged that there was no case against Hopkins, but The Bench decided that there was a prima facie case, and committed the prisoners to take their trial at the next assizes, bail being allowed.

Barbara's Marriage.
Barbara's Marriage. a A WOMAN'S FIXED RESOLUTION WHIOH WAS HELPED BY LOVE. Barbara Deane leaned back among the cushions of a Persian divan in a. curtained recess and glanced idly over Mrs. Van i Twiller's brilliantly-lighted ballroom. She was for the moment alone, and she was smiling at the pretty scene in a dreamy manner when the sound of her own name roused her to lively attention. Now, no person should listen to what is mot intended for his ears, but we regret to say that Barbara leaned forward with the determination of hearing as much of that conversation as possible. To excuse this act w* must, e&pl&ui that she had written a novel which had attracted some notice not of a wholly favourable order, and the speaker was an eminent journalist and critic. His candid opinion would be, she thought, of great value; therefore she drew the cur- tain a trifle closer and listened with breath- less interest. Vviiat do I think of Miss Deane's book? Well, it is not wholly bad—there are germs of genius in it. But her aspirations will end 111 nothing; her sentiment, or fancy, needed an outlet, and found one in her novel. By, and bye she witl fall in love, marry, and in living happily ever after lose that lively imagination which is indispensable in the writer of fiction. You will see how" The return of Barbara's partner prevented her further enlightenment. She was some- what quiet and distraught the rest of the evening, so much so, indeed, that she ne- glected to snub Bertie Langdon, her devoted llave, thereby raising that misguided youth to the seventh heaven of ecstacy, and causing him to sit up into the small hours com- posing a declaration of his love. "She really must care for me, you know," ,e confided to his cigarette, "for she actually Jet me hold her flowers. She did, by Jr/ve ind never said a word when I took one I" Meanwhile the object of his adoration apon reaching home, sat long and thought- fully before the betlroom are. Olad in a white dressing-gown, her bare feet thrust into scarlet Turkish slippers, with her slim fctads eiasyed behind W Wad, she swof ad to and fro in her favourite chair, regardless of beauty sleep. Barbara was really a charming girl of twenty-one. Her figure was tall and of supple grace, her features were clearly cut, and the oval face was lighted by a pair of velvetv brown eyes. there was a look of firmness about that charmingly dimpled chin of hers that Miss Deane's friends de- clared was not belied by her character. She had always been unusually bright and clever, and at school was admired and looked up to by her companions. The principal being a strong-minded woman,, Barbara. had, perhaps uiioonsciously, imbibed many of ner views; so, when she entered society, it was with an exalted opinion of woman's superiority, which the average man she met did not in any way lessen. There- upon, thinking her experience wide and varied, she wrote a novel in which she made some sweeping assertions regarding matters of which she was in reality profoundly ignorant. Being young and the pretty member of an excellent family, Barbara received a great deal of injudicious praise, in conse- quence of which she assumed the airs of a very high and intellectual young person in- deed. Yet, under all her fancies and views, siu possessed keen perception and strength of purpose, and, despite her pessimistic pose, a loyal, happy heart and disposition. "Let me see," she mused. "According to Mr. Blake's hypothesis, the felicities of a congenial marriage will ruin my literary prospects. Ergo, to continue the hypothesis, an unhappy one would develop those 'germs of genius.' If I thought that I would not hesitate to marry a man I did not love, for I am determined to devote my life to litera- ture and when one remembers that most men and women of talent have been unhappy in domestic life the idea seems quite feasible. Possibly that same unhappiness was the cause of the books and pictures they gave to the world. Suffering themselves, they know how to touch the hearts of others. Who can 1AIWo.' ( I Barbara revolved thexs ideas in her brain untu sundry penetrating chills warned her that unless her vigil was discontinued a cold in the head was likely to ensue, so she went prosaically to bed But the train of thought aroused by tht, critic's unflattering words did not vanish with the morning light. On the contrary^ it grew, and Bar- bara finally became convinced that to succeed in her cherished am bit*n she must marry a man whose tastes and ideas were entirely different from her own. It might be suggested that she could have remained single, and thus obviate the disas- trous consequences propJ*3sied from a happy marriage; but, as she told the sympathetic reflection in her mirror, her favourite con- fidence, since it never became envious of one's new gown, nor repeated with additions and variations that same confidence, that it was utterly impossible to be miserable where everyone obeyed her slightest wish, and in order to write really well, with a magnetic, comprehending touch, she was sure she ought to be wretched—a heart hun- ger ever gnawing at her breast. With this end in view, much to the sur- prise of her friends, Barbara graciously ac- cepted the hand, accompanied by a fortune of fair proportions, that Walden Morris laid at her feet. Walden Morris was of a type frequently met in society. Shrewd enough in business, but taking the world as a sort of jest socially, and rather given to meaningless flirtations, he still had a frank and generous nature. He was a handsome man of twenty- eight, with an expression of almost boyish good temper on his cleanly-shaven blonde face. He was fond of outdoor sports, and while a leading member of the athletic clubs at college his graduation might be desig- nated as a close call. Beyond the quotations of stocks and bonds and the sporting news, he seldom read any- thing, save, perhaps, the latest novel; yet so kind had nature been to him that lie could make the most empty nonsense acceptable by the intonations of his musical voice.' He was honestly and thoroughly in love it Barbara, exerting his brains to a degree ire unknown for her entertainment, and there was only one way in which he could always please her. She liked to hear him sing, and really Walden could sing, as Bar- bara's cousin irreverently called it, "like a seraph or a grand opera tenor." Indeed, on account of his voice, Barbara almost broke the engagement doubting if she could be as truly miserable as she thought necessary with a man whose "singing she enjoyed so much. However, when she recalled his yacht-racing and football ten- dencies, she gravely decided that he would do, and retained the glittering symbol on her slender white hand. it an occasional qualm of conscience re- garding the fairness of tlus transaction to Walden intruded itself, she dismissed it with the high argument that it was for the good of literature, and the paltry pleasure of one or two persons was of little rolative im- portance. So, in June, after Walden had given a farewell stag dinner to his bachelor com- rades, and Barbara's trousseau had been inspected and admired by her dearest friends, amid a profusion of roses and a number of pretty bridesmaids becomingly garbed in various tones of yellow, they were married, and sailed away to spend the honeymoon on Walden's yacht, the Lady Bab. Despite her gloomy resolutions, Barbara really enjoyed "life on the ocean wave," and I was often annoyed by her inconsistent light- headedness, which she attributed to the novelty of her situation and surroundings. No doubt, she reasoned, when they were at home again, living quietly, her mind would reach that state of unhappiness she con- sidered so desirable. Meanwhile, she grew more like a tinted goddess every day, and Walden's devotion deepened, though he was careful not to make it a burden to her, being conscious that he only held a second place in his wife's thoughts, yet sincerely admiring her aims and ambitions, possibly more than a man who the roughly understood them would have done. I By and bye the summer blended into autumn, :md with its coming Mr. and Mrs. Walden Morris returned, to the city. Sim, Barbara did not write much. She dashed off a few sketches, full o{ the imagery and keen insight of character she had always pos- sessed but the work by which she was to ascend several rounds of the ladder of fame, tiie distillation "slow dropped from Misery's crushing presses," was not begun. She felt vaguely vexed, and finally concluded, like Laurie, "'twas genius simmering," though, like him, it was something vastly more common. Society claimed so much of her time that winter that, as Barbara walked bri. kly along the street out* afternoon, she noted by the warmth of the sunshine and the mildness of the breezes that spring had drawn near, almost without her knowledge. The trees in the common were beginning to bud; the air was fraught with the pro- mise of nodding lilac plumes, of blossoming orchards, and of the birds' sweet songs. The florists' windows were filled with fra- grant vioiets, delicately-tinted hyacinths and primroses, and glowing masses of crimson Hid yellow tulips. She stopped and bought a bunch of white hyacinths, which she fastened on the breast of her grey cloth gown, and walked on with a sense of gladness because of the approach of the season celebrated in poem and song. And really spring is very beautiful; so like youth, so .full of a tendef promise which the passions of life, like the sun of summer, so often consume. Barbara pushed back her fur cape and let the soft air oaress her throat ana creep into her veins, stirring in her blood new hopes and fancies, as it stirs the sap in the trees, causing them to send forth the little green leaves and sweet blossoms. How shameful. negligent she had been I What an amount of time she had wasted! But she intended to make it all up now and go to work with the birds and flowers, striving to infuse some of their sweetness into her words; for in Barbara's heart there had sprung up a tender longing that was quite strange ana somewhat inexplicable. "I have always thought," she mused, as she v>>nt up the steps of her home, "that the new year should begin in April, when all the earth is new and all things seem so glad she repeated, a soft smile curving he.' lips and deepening the bronze lustre of he- eyes. "Has your master returned, Charles?" she asked of the footman who admitted her. "Yes, madam. He is in the library," was the reply. Across the wide hall Barbara beat her steps, and pushed aside the curtain from the library door. "ileally, Walden," she said, gaily, "I had no idea that-but what is the matter?" a note of alarm coming into her voice. For Walden was seated by the writing-table, on which his arms were folded and his head bent, his whole attitude and bearing speaking very plainly of dejection. He lifted his head as she spoke, but did not answer; he only looked at her long and earnestly as she stood there in the door- way: the little figure with the grey gown falling in lines, the full, rounded throat rising out of the soft beaver of her cape, the white blossoms on her breast and the flush on her cheek were all so lovely, and yet he sighed wearily. "Walden, what is it?" she repeated, coming to him and kneeling by his side. "You are troubled, and surely you should tell me, your wife." Then, with a look of pain in his blue eyes, a ring of heartache in his voice, he told her of how terribly wrong business had been going lately; of how he had tried to keep the knowldege from her, but that now he could no longer hope, unless something very unexpected happened; he was going to leave town that nignt to ask aid from his uncle, but affairs looked dark. "Of course, you will always be provided for," he added, "but we can't Ijve as we have lived, and will have to give up this," indicating by a gesture the luxurious furnish- ings of the apartment. Barbara listened with an odd tightening in her throat. She was sorry, so very sorry for him, that for the moment she scarcely thought of herself. Poor Walden looked so grieved, and his careless, merry expression was quite gone. Now that she thought of it, he had not appeared very happy for some time. She turned her gaze from the dancing flames of the wood fire to his face, and noted the haggard lines about his mouth and eyes. Moved by a sudden impulse, she put her arms around his neck and kissed him, and then, with strangely throbbing heart, she ran quickly from the room. Walden looked after her with a some- what surprised expression. He had known, of course, that Barbara did not love him as he loved her, and had attributed her slight coldness to her literary tastes, a higher something so refined and spiritual as°to be above the ordinary emotions but now this voluntary caress, the first she had given him through all tue months of their married life, woke a vague yearning, a feel- ing that thoy both might be much happier. Some such thoughts began to stir in Wal- den's heart, and though they were as yet undefined, it was with a higher feeling than he had Known for many days that lie went to pack his valise. On the stairs a few white flowers were lying, where they had fallen from Barbara's dress. He tenderly picked them up, and, after pressing them to his lips, placed them most carefully where a man usually iI});)1I his sweetheart's photo- graph, her last letter, and similar t,uings- in that sacred inside pocket over the heart. Barbara had fled swiftly up the stairs and into her room, where she had hurriedly thrown off her hat and cape, and, sinking on a couch heaped up with cushions, strove to analyse the sensations that thrilled her. She began to understand the content in which she had rested—why she was no longer analytical and pessimistic. She was —yes, there was no other solution—she was in love with Walden, her husband. And not to have known it, she who had pictured and delineated the grand passion! After all, it was not so strange. Walden was really "quite lovable," she naively con- fessed. He was so gentle, so considerate, and-and-but what was the use of all that? The fact remained the same, not asking for explanation or excuse. Love seldom does. "Oh, Barbara, Barbara;" she cried, with a little laugh that was half a sob. "What an inconsistent, contradictory fraud you are!" Then her face grew very grave. Walden was in trouble. If she could only help him in some way She sprang up with the in- tention of going to his side with sympathetic words, when a sudden shyness seized and held her. Verily, Barbara was in love. That night, after she had helped Walden on with his overcoat and wished him success and adieu with a tender kiss that sent his stock and bond meditations to the right- about, Barbara sat down at her desk with the firm determination of helping her hus- band She had succeeded in part when the satisfaction of her ambition had been the only stake; how much more should she do so now, when her work was to render Wal- den assitance and prove her love?" "For really,' she reflected, "I don't be- lieve he thinks I care for him at all." The pleasant spring became brilliant sum- mer, and Walden and Barbara, saw each other seldom, he remaining in the city to watch with anxious eyes the "ticker," and she seeking a quiet retreat among the moun- tains, where, undisturbed, she worked un- tiringly. A letter written by Walden on the anni- versary of their marriage somewhat shook the resolution she had formed to confess her love until she had placed the evidonce of it in his handg. The words were so loving, so fentk\ yet with an undercurrent of sadness that brought tears to her eyes. "My love for you," he wrote, "has been like a steadiiy-growing and wide-spreading flower, whose sacred fragrance forbids the growth of weeds. It has aided and elevated me, yet I fear I have not made you as happy as I wish and onoe hoped to. My failure in this must, I think, be from sheer ina- bility; for I trust you believe I have tried my best. Still, one could scarcely expect you to be mtirely satisfied with a brainless fellow like me. "Can't tell when I can take a breathing spell, for business is about the same, though with a little more ready cash I fancy we could toss 'em," etc. This boyish transition from almost poetic imagery to the most prosaic prose provoked a little tremulous smile. "Dear boy I" she murmured. "He will soon know that I am happier in his love than I could be with any one, even had he the bcains and geaius." She wisote on with renewed energy, and before August had been gathered into the year's sheaf the manuscript was submitted to the publishers. Barbara was in a fever of impatience when Walden finally came up for a litth rest. Hie looked pale, and "business was still uncertain, nothing sure, and money was confoundedly close," was his information in reply to her anxious inquiries. They were lingering over their coffee the following morning when the servant brought in the letters, and Walden was soon toe deeply iimmersed in his own share to observt the reception Barbara accorded hers. fib manner in regard to one letter was decidedly ^trangje. It was a large, business-like affair, which, she immediately singled out from its delicately-tinted and scented companions, and surveyed the envelope as we often de when we axe anxious concerning its contents. TIleD. she nervously tore it open, and, aftei glaneing down the page, gave a little excla matepn of delight which aroused Walden. "Iffy dear Barbara," he asked, as, looking up, lie saw her radiantly happy eyes an< parted lips, "what has happened?" Ffor answer she rose from her place, aUf; coning to his side put into his hand th, pusl-Hi sher's letter, with its appreciative plrrttses and liberal terms. Then two arm crept round his neck, a flushed cheek wa prejksed against hi§ own, and a sweet, qui veiang voice was saying: ♦I'm so glad! It's for yqu. I workt to {help you, for, oh, Walden,! love you so When the book came' out it received tl aJUaost unanimous pr&hte it deserved. Xlien. -?- was no striving about the passionate, no posing for effect; it was healthful, spon- taneous, and natural, with a touch as pure as Barbara's love and as strong as her pur- pose. Homer Blake was forced to confess his prophecies set at naught, for, you see, it all turned out according to the rule of the contrary. Barbara fell in love with a man for whom she was sure she should never care, and her best work was prompted by that love.
