the man's more timorous, superstitious
nature.
And absolutely, as though they heard
them not, they were indifferent to the vicar's
murmured regrets and fears.
"Poor fools, poor fools! "What sorrows for
themselves are they heaping on their heads!
What wanton disregard for the philosophy
that teaches all things are possible."
To have asked him to tie the nuptial knot
would have been Tain, so, as had been pre
viously arranged, the Clareford family te
turned to the tiny West Kensington house,
and Hugo took ud his quarters in a London
hotel till the necessary preliminaries should
be arranged forthe marriage.
A month from the day on which thev had
paid their visit to the vicarage by the Weir,
they were man and wife, and whatever that
dread curse would bring to them of evil,
they must henceforth sutler conjointly.
Still, Annie had no fear; while, as for
Huco. thouch there were moments when he
was depressed beyond words to explain, yet
her trusting confidence in the good that
must await them if they kept themselves
"unspotted from the world," prevented him
from wholly abandoning himself to the
depths of despair.
On the fiery Colonel, too, her faith had
also told, though he could not wholly dis
embarrass himself of dread.
It was a crisp October day when they
started for the Biviera on their honeymoon
trip, announcing they would be at the ab
bey by Christmas, when they hoped to en
tertain their friends and relations.
Till then Annie would tain have forgotten
that the abbey and its curse existed.
If she could only chase all memory of
them both from her beloved Hugo's mind,
how much happier would she be!
But he could not rid himself of the feeling
that, tempted by his strong love, he had al
lowed Annie to sacrifice nerselt, and, even
as the moth flies round and round the
lighted candle, to dare the flame.
He watched her with snch intense anxiety
that it became quite painful to her, though
she tried to laugh at him, and asked him,
smiling: "What is it you are afraid of,
Hugo? Xou seem to fancy you already see
me lying dead at your feet. I assure you I
feci 'quite well and to use a thoroughly
mundane phrase very jolly."
"Oh, Annie, love, do not jest on snch a
serious subject. I have had a letter from
the vicar to-day, still regretting, for your
sweet sake, that I have been so daring.,'
"Tell me, Hugo; the vicar has the reputa
tion of being a learned man, an absolute
bookworm. Has much learning made him
mad, or how can he give way to such super
stitious nonsense? How can a curse that
some angry men have chosen to pronounce
hundreds of years ago have any effect on us
now?"
"And yet it Is so. If yon were to read,
as I have, some of the lofios in the vicar's
possession, yon would see it followed out
see how these curses have been fulfilled; not
only in one case, but in many, have they
overtaken the inmates of this accursed ab
bey, even down to this generation."
"These are coincidences,I should imagine.
Does the vicar attempt to account for them?"
"Hay, my Annie, if you wish to go in for
what the vicar calls the philosophy of this
matter you must argue it out with him."
"But surely you can tell me what he pre
tends."
"Well, the vicar has investigated and in
vestigated till he has brought himself to be
lieve in spiritual agencies. The theory is
that those who uttered the curse have be
come lost souls, demons, in fact, and that
having power to work mischief they are re
lentless. They suffer horribly tor their
want of forgiveness and charity. They are,
in fact, in hell, but from thence they can
torment us poor human beings even as
good spirits can and do assist us."
Annie's eyes opened very wide. Such
philosophy was bevond her comprehension,
and of the agency of an Unseen World, save
ofnlj Omnipotent Power of God the Father,
she k.ew naught, and in very truth she had
no wistLt0 perplex her mind with such un
canny a abstruse problems.
"Let usSlP tne work that is set before us
to do n-ithonfs?onntmK the cost," she said,
after a minute ortj, during which she had
apparently been thi"irfeine.nardi "and leave
demoniacal agencies f&figut out the battle
ot darkness. God must cVn1uer evil in the
end." ' , .
"Then you believe that gOCS-" morcpow-
"Most assuredly I do."
Still, for all Annie could say. Hugo lay
under the ban of the curse.
Life was very bright by the Riviera, but
the sunshine only seemed to mock his tears,
and each succeeding day, though it dawned
rich in the gifts of prosperity, Hugo grew
thinner and thinner, from the suffering pro
duced by the dread of an impending doom.
"The curse on the abbey had never
failed;" bo old lore, represented by the
vicar, had taught him. Why should he and
his race be exempt?
As possessor of these old church domains,
he was not to be smitten save through those
he loved; and he did love Annie very dearly
so dearly that his love for her was a posi
tive fear and pain.
Nevertheless, to all outward appearance
the young newly married couple were dis
porting themselves merrilv. Annie insisted
on going everywhere. She would not let
Hugo mope over these morbid fancies if she
could help it; but for all that, as the days
succeeded each other, he seemed to become
more and more anxious, and never opened
his eyes alter an hour or two of disturbed
agitated sleep without suffering from the
haunting dread that some terrible calamity
would happen before nightfall.
"Could the curse be developing in a new
form, and was madness to be his doom?" he
asked.
Annie laughed at the supposition, and her
persistent fearlessness still helped to give
Hugo strength.
Christmas was approaching, and with it
the time when they had promised their re
lations they would be ready to receive them
at the abbey. To Hugo the idea of going
home brought no pleasure, beautiful though
the abbey and its surroundings were. Since
he had known of the curse that was one of
the heirlooms, he regarded the place in the
light of a doomed dungeon, and told Annie
he would only be too glad if he never saw it
again.
She wonld not, however, let him off the
work he ought to do as owner of this large
property, and said they must go back to it.
Every preparation was made for the de
parture, when, the English post having just
arrived, Annie came into the room where
Hneo was with an open letter in her hand.
"Your wish is fulfilled, Hugo. You can
never go back to the abbev."
"Ah! How so?"
"It has been totally destroyed by fire.
This letter from my father, who was sent
for, announces it, and bids me break it to
you gently."
But Hugo never for a moment deplored
the destruction of the beautiful old abbey
he shouted aloud and absolutely capered for
joy.
"Fire, pestilence or water," he cried.
"Fire has done its work; let us be thankful,
Annie, and feel free."
And Annie was thankful, not that the ab
bey was destroyed, but that Hugo believed
that the curse had been fulfilled. She her
self had no more belief in the power of a
curse than she had had from the first, but
she was far too wise a woman to treat him
to a chapter on coincidences.
Needless to say, the abbey was never re
built, and the ground was let to agricultur
ists, wo gloried in the prolific qualities of
' the soiL
Hugo Gurnet and his wife took a modorn
bouse in one of the home counties, to which
no tradition was attached, and where chil
dren were born to them and they prospered
and were happy.
Annie persistently held to her motto, and
instilled it with much practice into her sons
and daughters: "Do the work that is set he
fore you do without counting the cost"

AFTERMATH OF BIJOU EXPLOSION.
Edward Abbott Quickly Convicted of Tolun
tary Manslaughter.
A WIPE'S AFFECTIONS WORTH $2,000
Nine important lawsuits growing out of
the natural gas explosion at the Bijou
Theater nearly two years ago were on the
trial list vesterdav in Common Pleas Court
No. 1, but owing to the fact of the plaintiffs'
attorneys not being quite ready they were
postponed.
The action is on the part of the Fidelity
Title and Trust Company at the instance of
nine insurance companies against the Peo
ple s Natural Gas Company to recover
losses by fire. It will be remembered that
an explosion of natural gas occurred at the
Patterson block, on Sixth street, in May,
1888. The Fidelity Title and Trust Com
pany were the trustees for the Patterson
heirs, and as such insured the property.
After the explosion, the Fidelity Company
recovered damages from the insurance com
panies who insured the building. The in
surance companies are now trying to recover
from the People's Gas Company. The in
surance companies concerned in the suit are
as follows:
The German Insurance Company of Pitts
burg, Hartford Fire Insurance Company, of
Hartford, Conn.; the Penn Fire Insurance
Company of Pennsylvania, Liverpool, London
and Globe Insurance Company. The Insurance
Company of North America, the Guardian As
surance Company of London, the German-
American Insurance Company, of New York,
and the Continental Insurance Company, of
New York.
The nine suits will be tried in a lump,
and the outcome will be eagerly watched by
natural gas and insurance men all over the
country. The insurance companies want to
recover the amounts they paid to the Fidel
ity Company from the People's Company.
The latter company, it is claimed by the
plaintiffs, was the cause of the loss.
The first question in the bill is, is it right
for the insurance companies to have them
selves substitnted in place of the injured
parties, and to recover damages by subro
gation? The defense is, first, that these par
ticulars do not contain the usual provision
for substitution or subrogation, which is now
customarily included in fire insurance poli
cies; secondly, a claim on the part of the gas
company that said losses were fully
paid to the Fidelity Title and
Trust Company, and that the insurance com
panies cannot recover for this reason, other
wise they would be held liable by two par
ties for the same loss. It is claimed that the
insurance policies do not. include any such
agreement as implied, and the plaintiffs
will have to prove that the explosion was
caused by the negligence of the People's
Company.
The Fidelity Company recovered from the
insurance companies after the case had been
fully ventilated in the courts. It went to
the Supreme Court, which held that where
a policy ot fire insurance did not contain a
substitution clause the companies wonld
have to pay the insured before they could '.
demand a substitution.
The cases will be argued, when they are
called up, by Messrs. George Shiras'llX
and W. li. Miller for the gas company, and
Messrs. Tan Voorhis and Bodgers for the
insurance companies.

IJf THE UNITED STATES' C0UET. -
Holy Smith and the Pitubnrg Gas Company
Lock Horns.
'The case ot Boland H. Smith vs. the
Pittsburg Gas Company for infringement on
certain patents, was argued before Judge
Acheson in the United States Court yester
day. The suit is for the alleged infringe
ment on two patents on the process of con
verting natural gas into illuminating gas.
The plaintiff was represented by Hon.
George Harding, of Philadelphia, and D.
F. Patterson, Esq., of this city. The de
fendants' counsel are W. Bakewell & Son.
Mr. Patterson opened the argument, and
claimed that Mr. Smith was the first man to
I patent the process, und has patents covering
his claims. The old process hrst eliminated
from the gas certain impurities before sub
mitting it to heat. The new process takes
the gas from the earth, aud without elim
inating anything accomplishes the desired
end by submitting it directly to the heat.
Mr. Patterson then went into an exhaustive
argument on the question of the -manufacture
of gas in its different forms.
Mr. Bakewell contended that the Pitts
burg Gas Company had in use the Granger
apparatus, which was in use before Mr.
Smith's patent was ever known, aud was
formerly used to make water gas. Mr. Bake
well cited a number of patents to show that
the apparatus now in use by the Pittsburg
Gas Company is not an infringement on the
Smith process.but that the latter was a direct
infringement on other processes.

An Incident in the Life of a Prominent
Alleghenian.
MR. JOHN IFFT INTERVIEWED
"I can hardly explain to you how I got
into the condition I was in. It came on me
gradually, and before I realized it my con
dition was a very serious one."
The writer had found Mr. John M. lift at
his pleasant home at No. 62 Grant alley,
Allegheny, in the Sixth ward.
"I am 'quite willing, however," Mr. Ifft
continued, "to do my best in giving an ac
count of my trouble. It was fully six years
since I first noticed it, and during that time
not for a single day have I felt like a well
man, or been an hour free from some kind of
pain or sickness.
"To begin with, it was a slight cough that
troubled me; my nose would be stopped up
on one side or the other. My throat would
have a raw, uncomfortable feeling. That
was called catarrh of the head and throat by
those whom I consulted about it. I tried by
every means I knew to get rid of that, but
instead of getting any better the trouble
seemed to be extending all the time down
into my chest.
"I found myself losing flesh steadily.
Sometimes I wonld pick up for awhile, and
I wonld think I was getting better, but then
in a little while I would find myself fallitfg
away faster than ever and a good deal worse
than I had ever been.
Mr. J. M. Ifft, 6t Grant alley, Allegheny.
"There was a constant dropping from my
head to my throat. It was especially bad
when I laid down. Often I would have to
sit up in bed in order to get my breath. The
mucus would gather in Targe quantities in
my throat, almost smothering me. I
could not sleep, and would get op more
tired than when I went to bed. Until a
short time ago I was working on the Man
chester Street Bailwav. When I went to
work in the morning I would have to cough
for at least two hours before I could clear my
throat and chest of the mucus that had col
lected during the night.
"My eyes were affected and became so weak
that I could not see to read. Tbere was a dull
pain across my forehead and ringing, buzzing
noises in my ears. My hearing was seriously
impiired.
"I wonld get dizzy frequently, so that when I
would go abont my work spots would seem to
swim before my eyes, and everything would
seem hazy and dim. This would most frequent
ly occnr when arising suddenly, or after exert
ing myself. At such times my heart would
palpitate violently, and this would be followed
by slow and irregular beating and a sensation
of falntness.
"The least exertion would tire me and make
me short of breath. I could not walk even a
short distance without suffering pain. Mynp
petite failed me. For five Jrears I was never
able to retain my breakfast in my stomach.
The constant coughing in the morning would
cause a nauseating feeling and compel me to
vomit.
"I bad tried so many doctors and remedies
without gaining any relief that 1 bad become
discouraged and never expected to get well
One day I read of a case similar in many re
spects to mine tbat had been treated and cured
bv Drs. Copeland fc Blair. I called at their
office, and after consultation placed myself
under their re,u . -i-. ----
"Have you been benefited by their treat
ment?" "Indeed I have. I feel like a different person
from the one I was when I first went to them.
The dropping in my throat has ceased. I can
now see to read without my eyes hurting me.
My stomach trouble has left me and I can now
eat a good meaL I enjoy my food and have no
trouble retaining It. For years I bad no sense
of taste or smell. I could eat cayenne pepper
and not know what I was eating. Now I have
these senses in full, and can distinguish tbe
taste of each article of food. I am getting
stronger and arise in the morning feeling re
freshed and invigorated. Tbe olianee in my
condition I owe to Drs. Copeland & Blair, and
shall be glad to verify this statement at any
time."
Mr. Ifft lives, as stated, at 62 Grant alley,
Sixth nard, Allegheny, wbere he can be seen
regarding the above.
MR. BARNES' STORY.
Statement From a Well-Known Genlleman of
Hickman, Pa.
The statement given below is from one of the
patients residing out of the. city who was
treated from the office of Drs. Copeland &
Blair. Tbe gentleman in question is Mr. Will
lam Barnes, of Hickman, Pa., a thriving town
on the Pittsburg, Chartiers and Youghiogheny
Railroad, about 15 miles out from Pittsburg.
During a recent conversation with the
writer, he said: "Five years ago my trouble
first made its appearance, and it continued to
grow steadily worse nntil I. was at last in a
very serious condition. My head and nose
were first stopped up.and there was a dropping
from my head to my throat. I wonld get up in
the morning feeling more tired than when I
went to bed tbe night before. I could eat but
little, and hat I did cat laid like a heavy load
on my stomach.
"At last the trouble extended to my chest
There would be sharp pains stabbing like a
knife right over my heart. My lungs became
affected and I had a dry, hacking cougb. I
grew weaker and weaker and was unable to do
any work. I lost all sense of taste and smell.
1 was advised to go to England. I went there,
and spent a great deal of money, but derived
no benefit. I became disheartened and hon
estly believed my trouble would soon cause my
death.
"I was advised while in this condition to try
Drs. Copeland & Blair. I had read of tbe
great good they were doing, so determined to
see them.
"The result has been a great surprise to me.
I improved rapidly from the very first. I soon
regained my sense of smell and taste. I have
no more trouble with my heart or pains in my
chest. I can eat well and feel refreshed by my
sleep. I can work all day and feel good at
night. In fact, I am perfectly well. I owe my
recovery to Drs. Copeland & Blair, and shall be
glad to speak with anyone abont my case."
Result of Home Treatment.
borne time ago Mr. Harry Phillips, of Hnl
ton, Allegheny county. Pa., commenced a
course of borne treatment for his catarrhal
trouble, under the care of Drs. Copeland 4
Blair.
At tbat time his trouble had assumed a very
aggravated form. He stated to the writer as
follows:
"My nostrils would clog up. My head ached
constantly. I had severe pains in my chest.
Tbere was a dropping of mucus from my head
to my throat. I bad night sweats. My heart
would palpitate rapidly, and be followed by a
slow, irregular betting and feelincof falntness.
I was daily growing weaker. The slightest
exertion tired me, and I was unfit for work."
"How do you feel now!"
"Like another being. All tbe sjmptoms I
have described to you have disappeared, and I
feel as well as I ever did in my life."
Last May, Miss Lottie J. Forker, of 209 Arch
street, Meadville. Pa., placod herself under
treatment by mall with Drs. Copeland & Blair
for her catarrhal trouble.
On Jnne 0 she wrote: "Your medicine is do
ing me good. I do not feel so tired, and my
headaches have ceased."
August 26 her letter stated: "I feel quite
like a different woman from the one 1 was
when I commenced your treatment."
