IN THE MABERLY MINE.
"John Wallace!" called the mine
superintendent throngh the speaking
pipe, "some visitors are coming down
in the cage. Yon will l>e kind enough
to show thorn throngh tho tunnels."
" Visitors 1" I repeated to myself. "I
mnst be a lackey, too, as well as drndge.
Well, so be it. It is only another straw
to the load lam carrying. If it breaks
my back, so much the better. I shall
be done with it."
The world has littlo respect for those
whose code of honor Ira Is them aside
from the broad highway of common
place.
W hen, at my father's death, finding
his estate heavily incumbered, I had <
deemed it my duty to place it at the
disposal of his creditors, I found my- i
self, socially speaking, in ice water. I
Those who had known me in my hap ;
pier days knew me no longer, and i
houses whero I had once been a wel
come guest were now as impenetrable ,
as their owners' ignorance of my exist
ence.
I could have borne all this well
enough had only one home remained i
open to me—the home of Eve Onion.
In the days when her wealthy father
looked with favor upon the intercourse
of his daughter with tho landowner's
son, I had some wild hopes about
her.
She was a beautiful girl—young, and
as I had believed, sympathetic. I had
believed, too, that I had seen glimpses
of something in her face that proved
my hopes not to be so wild as they
seemed.
But that, too, was over. A polite
note from her father informed me that
his daughter could henceforth dispense
with my attentions; and. as I received
no intimation to the contrary from Eve
herself, I concluded she too, had de
clared my ostracism. After this I lost I
hope, aud made no attempt to "better
my worldly condition.
I left the village, and after two year-,
of wandering, often in destitution, I
stranded myself on the Maberly coal
mine as gang-master in the pita
Our mine had a doubtful reputation,
having been tho scene of several dis
tressing accidents. Consequently, we
were rarely tronbled by visitors from
the upper earth.
This was a godsend to me. I could
manage to endnre tho life I was lead
ing only on condition of not being too
frequently remind.nl of the life from
which I bad been exiled. The idea of
encountering persons whom I had
known in tatter times was a constant
terror to me.
It may be imagined, therefore, with
what feelings I awaited the descent of
the visitors who had been signaled from
above.
As tho cage stopped upon tho level
where I stood with my lamp in my
hand and the passengers alighted, I
recognized them with feelings of down
right misery. I saw before mo the two
persons whom of all humanity I bad
least wished to meet—Eve Onion and
her father.
Had they heard of my whereabouts
and come to witness my degradation?
No. As cold and worldly as I believed
Eve to he, I could not imsgine her ca
pable of such mean malice.
Woo could identify the name of gang
master John Wallace with Wallace
Orover. ci-devant gentleman ? Be
sides, 1 remembered that Mr. Guiou
was a shareholder in the Maberly mine.
It was merely a simple sight-seeing
tour, after all.
Two years of hardship Mid the
growth of a heavy board had changed
my appearance so that I was rare
neither father nor daughter Oould pos
sibly recognize me.
With strict control over myself, I
conld show them through the mine and
dismiss tbnin none the wiser. Now
that they bed come, too, I wes glad of
tbe opportunity of seeing tho woman 1
bad loved—atill loved—onoe more.
I stopped confidently forward, there
fore, and introduced myself an the
gnide, John Wallace. Eve looked at
mo closely, hut, 1 thought, only with
an expression of curiosity as to the
looks of a man whose life was spent nn
dergTonnd.
My head swam and my heart beat
thiik and lond as 1 stood before her—
more bountiful, because more serious
and womanly than when wo had been
intimate two years before.
I noticed that her face was a little
paler and that there was a look of sad
ness in it that was new to me.
Tho season that I had spent in
wretchedness,then, had not boon wholly
free from sorrow for her. Not, of
course, on my account; snch a notion
never entered my head.
"Have you been here many years?"
she asked, as we were preparing to
descend into the gallories.
" Years enough, madarao, to know tho
mine thoroughly," I answered, evasive
ly-
Mr. Onion looked at mo inquiringly.
"You Bpeak like a man of education,
my good fellow," he said. "Do they
put men of yonr stamp into BUJII posi
sitions as yours?"
"Men of my stamp have few claims
which the world is bound to respect,"
I answered, gruffly. "You aro here to
see tho mine. Ho kind enough to fol
low me."
"My father will havo more than
enongh to do to gnide his own steps,"
said Eve, coming to my side and quietly
placing her hand on my arm. " I mnst
trust to vonr gallantry, Mr. Wallace."
I mado no reply, bnt wondered if,
woman as she was, she had nd faraway
hint of the causeof that sledge-hammer
beating of my heart nnder her round
arm.
We remained in tho galleries two
hours—more than twice as long as was
necessary to their thorough inspection, j
The old man was growing impatient,
bnt the gloomy pits and chambers
seemed to havo an unaccountable fas
cination for Eve Onion. Bhe loitered
on one pretext or another, until I began
to fear that 1 mnst have betrayed my
indentity to her quick eye.
Her face had grown strangely sad
and anxious. I saw, too, that when she
thought herself nnolmerved she
watched my face intently. Had she
detected me and was she seeking an
opportunity of making her discovery
known without betraying mo to her
father?
I determined that she should not ac
complish her design. I knew very well
that I should lose my self control and
all of my love, bitterness and despair
would burst out in a torrent.
I therefore was carefnl to avoid being
alone with her for a moment. And I
soon saw that I had guessed aright.
She was endeavoring to separato mo
from her father that sho might speak
to me.
But I foiled her quietly but skill
fully, and after the galleries had l>een
explored twice over, and there was no
longer the shadow of a pretext for re
maining, she finally prepared to depart, i
As wo entered the upper level we
passed the dark opening of a disused
chamtar, which I had deemed unsafe >
to be visited.
Eve's eye caught sight of it.
" Here is s chamtar we have not
seen," she said.
'• No, madarae,' I interposed. " It is
no longer worked. The water has
broken into it twice, and it is consid
ered dangorons."
" I mean to see it, at all events," she
replied. " Father, wait for us here.
Mr. Wallace will not refuse to guide
me, I am sure."
Sho cast a strange, significant look at
me, which said almost as plainly as
words:
" I know yon, Wallace Orover, and I
mean to speak to yon in spite of your
caution."
Then she entered the chamtar.
Bnt sho had miscalculated my tact.
I turned to her father and requested
him to enter with me in order to dis
suade her from her rash adventure, and
we followed her together. Hhe gave me
a roproachfnl look as we entered, and I
heard hur sigh.
The moment I put my foot in the
chamber, my senses, trained by long
experience to note the varying phe
nomena of the under world, detected a
hint of the coming danger.
There was a faint rumbling to the
bowels of the earth. The air was close,
and had a taint of electricity in it sim
ilar to that which precedes a thunder
storm. There was surely peril in the
mine, but how and whence it would
come I could not guess.
As I turned to urge my visitor to s
hasty retreat I caught sight of some
■mall fragments of wet earth dropping
from the wall near at hand, followad by
a Jet of water. Then I knew what was
ooming.
"Outl out for your livaat" I cried,
springing toward the wall. "The
water is bursting into the mine, King
for the csge and give the alarm I"
The old man needed no second warn
ing. With a cry of terror be sprang
out of tbo chamber, and the next mo
ment I beard him give tho alarm. Then
followed tho shouts and trampling of
the escaping men. I know if I could
hold tho water in chock for ten minutes
I could save the lives of every one of
them. As for my own—well, one lifo,
and that a useless one, seemed u good
exchango for a hundred fathers of
families.
When I first saw it tho jot was no
larger than a man's finger ; but in a mo
mont it had enlarged to the size of my
arm, and a heavy stream of water began
to pour into tho chamber.
There was no apparatus at hnnd,
neither claj nor sand bags to check it,
as I well know.
A happy inspiration ramo to mo.
With a Titanic effort I managed
thrust my arm into the fissure, and/lor
tho timo being I succeeded in checking
tho loak.
Then, with my arm in tbo wall, 1
turned half arouud toward the opening
iu tho chamber, and there, to my hor
ror, still stood Eve Onion. I saw that
her face was very pale, but firm and
self-]>os seised.
"What are you doing here?" I cried.
" This place will bo full of water in
five minutes."
"What are you doing here? 'she asked
quietly.
"My duty," I replied. "I am try
ing to hold this stream iu cheek until
the men cteape."
"Then you will IKS drowned," sbeex
claimcd.
" What of that? Better one than u
hundred. But go," I entreated. " I
toll you yon have only a bare chance to
get out as it is. The water is prossing
harder every moment. It will soon IKS
too mueh for my strength."
"Then I will stsy and help you,
Wallace," she said, in a strangely gontle
voice.
"Ah, you know me I" I cried.
" I have known you from the mo
ment I onteied tho mine- I came bore
to see you."
"To taunt me with my poverty 1" 1
cried. " When your father turned tae
away from your doors, when I Itceame
outcast and wretched, I thought 1 had
the right to hide my misfortunes from
your oyos."
" It is Isecause my fath'-r used you so
crnelly that lam here," she said. " I
was not to blame, Wallace'. I knew
nothing of it until you were gone.
Since then I have tried to learn of your j
whereabouts in order to let yon under
stand my feelings. It was only yester
day that I heard of John Wallace in
the Mal>crlv mine, and on the bare
chance of identifying him with Wallace
Grover I influenced my father to bring
me here "
" Well," said I, sorrowfully, "it is
too lafe to think of the past now. G.,
Eve. Go and keep poor John Wallace's
secret. It will soon hoover with him."
"Yon persist in remaining hero?"
she asked.
" I must," I said. " I should be a
coward and a wretch to d<>aert my post
now."
"Then," she replied, very quietly,
11 1 will stay with vox"
"Why?" I asked, amazed ly. "Are
you jesting with me T'
"Can I jest with death, Wallace, or—
love 1"
Then, before I could comprehend her
word*, *he came to my ride, and I stood
with my wrist in the wall, and pntting
ber *rm around my neck drew my cheek
down npon her*."
" It i hard to die so yonng, Wallace,"
she said, sweetly, " bnt it wonld be
harder to lire without yon. In the
honr of death, my dear, we can di*pon*e
with fal*o delicacy. I know that yon
ham loved me many year*, and I have
returned yonr love. If we have met
again only to die, death at least oannot
separate ns."
With death staring me in the face—
not five minntea off—l have never
known a happier moment in my life.
A* I stood there, with my arm in the
fl*imre, with the blood smging into my
head, and all my mnacles straining with
the effort to keep my position, 1 knew
nothing more than that I felt the heart
of the woman I loved beating against
my own, her warm yonng cheek touch
ing my cold one in the embrace of love
and death.
Then consciousness of ber position
rnshed npon me again.
"No, no!" I cried. " Yon mut not
die. Oo live, my darling—live until it
come* yonr time to meet me in the
other world, where I shall be before
yon. 00, and believe no man over met
death BO gloriously as I shall."
"We go ont together or we dia to
gether," abo said, firmly. " Speak of
it no more."
Then a solemn alienee fell npon ns.
The men mnst have nearly all eaoaped,
M I oonld tall by their distant ahouta.
The earth was breaking away aronnd
my arm, and tha water was alreadv
nearly two feet deep npon the floor of
the chamber. I oonld hear the subter
ranean stream roaring more threaten
ingly in the howela of the mine. An
other pound of pressure, and I should
be flung down and the chamber wonld
| fill.
Then came a great desire for life.
How could I bear to have my rew fonnd
joy so suddenly smothered in the
gronnd? Was there not yot one hope?
The sonnds of the escaping men had
coasod. If wo could get the cage down
once rnoro in time, wo might pcrhapH
escape after ail. I explained my hope
to Eve.
" Itun,"Haid I, " ring for the cage.
I will hold on hero a moment more.
If wo can reach it we are safe."
Eve looked at me sharply an instant
—she feared I meant to deceive her
into escaping while I remained behind;
but Bhe divineil my intention.
With a quick movement she seized
the light, lifted her skirts and ran
through the water out of the chamber.
The next thirty seconds seemed like
hours.
I desperately held my own against
the water, while every vein seemed
bursting with the strain. I heard the
liell ring for the cage, heard it slowly
descond; then the water overcame
me.
I was flung down as by a giant's
hand. There was a roar and rush as of a
Niagaia, and, with a whirl of lights and
faces, a chaos of confusion and terror,
I knew no more.
When I slowly struggled back to life,
after many days, I was far from the
Maberly mine. I was no longer John
Wallace, gunir master, but Wallace
Orover, gentleman. I was in my
father's house.
Mr old servants were around me,
and, like a fairy who Liul worked a won
derful transformation, sweet Eve Onion
was the dominant afgel of the scene.
My affairs had 1 < n settled with my
creditors very ranch more to my Is-no
fit than I imagined could be possible.
M" ancestral home and a mod' st com
petetice were still left to mo.
This, too, was the work of Eve On.on,
whose love and faith in me Lad never
falter.-d in all my wretchedness and ex
ile, and whose strong will had drawn
comfort and happiness for me out of
the depths ef sorrow.
