TOE SCRANTOJf TBIBTJNE THURSDAY -.MOlMmtO, SEPTEMBER 1!!. 1893. S Copyright, 1S35, by oiMPTtm i. In the days of Rudolph the Third there stood on the hill opposite the Csstle of Zenda and on the other side of the valley In which the town Ilea, on the Bite where the Chateau of Tarlun helm now Is situated, a tine and strons castle belonging U Count Nikolas of Fextent'Ui'R. He was a noble of very old and high family and had great es tates; his house being, indeed, oecond only to the royal house In rank and reputation. He himself was a youiiK man of great accomplishments, of a domineering temper and of much am bition; and he had gained distinction In the wars that marked the closing yeftrs of the reign of King Henry the Lion. With King Hudolph he was not on terms of cordial friendship, for he dc3plsed the king's easy manners and rarelessness of dignity, while the king had no love for a gentleman whose one object seemed to be to surpass and out shine him In the eyes of the people, and who never rested from extending und fortifying his castle until It threatened to surpass Zenda itself both in strength and magnificence. Moreover Nikolas, although maintaining a state ample and suitable to his rank, was yet care ful and prudent, while ltudolph spent all that, ne received and more besides, so that the count grew richer and the king poorer. But In spite of these causes of difference, the count was re ceived at court with apparent gracious m?Bs, and no open outburst of enmity had yet occurred, the pair being, on the contrary, often together and sharing their sports and pastimes with one another. Now most of these diversions wore harmless or indeed becoming and proper, but there was one among them full of danger 'to a man of hot head and ungoverned Impulse such as King Hu dolph Was. And this one was dicing, In which the king took great delight, and In which Count 'Nikolas was very ready to encourage him. The king, who was generous and hated to win from poor men or those who might be playing beyond their means In order to give him pleasure, was delighted to find an opponent whose purse was as long or longer than his own, and thus came gradually to pass many evenings with the boxes In Nikolas' company. And the more evenings he passed the deeper he fell Into the count's debt; for the king drank -wine, while the count was. content with small beer, and when the king was losing he doubled his stakes, Whereas the count took in sail If the wind seemed adverse. Thus always steadily the debt grew; till at last Rudolph dared not reckon how large it had become, nor did he dare to dis close It to his advisers. For there were great public burdens already Imposed by reason of King Henry's wars, anil the citizens of Strelsau were not In a mood to bear fresh exactions nor to Rive their hard earnings for the pay ment of the king's gambling debts; in line, although they loved the Klph bergs well enough, they loved their money more. Thus the king had no re source, except in his private posses sions. and these were of no great value, caving the castle and estate of Zenda. At length, when they had sat late one night and the throws had gone all the evening aglnst the king and for Nikolas, the king flung himself back in his chair, drained his glass, and said Impatiently: "I am weary of the game! Come, my lord, let us end It." "I would not urge you, sire, a mo ment beyond what you desire. I play but for your pleasure." "Then my pleasure has been your profit," said the king with a vexed laugh, "for I believe I am stripped of my last crown. W hat is my debt?" The count, who had the whole sum reckoned on his tablets, took them out and showed the king the amount of the debt. would play out again, to double the debt, or wipe It out, but I have nothing of value enough to stake." The desire which had been nursed for long In the count's heart, now saw the moment of Its possible realization. He leant over the table, and, smooth ing his, beard With his hand,, said gently: "The amount Is no more than half the value of your Majesty's castle and demesne of Zenda." The king started and forced a laugh. ' "Aye, Zenda spoils the prospect from Festenburg, does it?" said he. "But I will not risk Zenda, An Klphhcrg with out Zenda would seem like a man robbed of his wife. We have had It slnco we have had anything or been anything. I should not seem king without it." "As you will, sire. Then the debt stands?" And he looked full and keen ly into the king's eyes, asking without words, "How will you pay it?" and adding without words, "I'ald It must be." And the king read the unspoken words in the eyes of Count Nlkolus. WOMEN'S FACES like flowers, fade and wither with time; the bloom of the rose is only known to the lie alt by woman's cheeks. The ncrv .otis strain caused by 'the ailments ana ' pains peculiar to the sex, and the labor and worry of rearing a family, can often be traced by the lines in the woman's face. Dull eyes, the sallow or wrinkled face and those "feelings of weakness" have their rise in the derangements and irregularities peculiar to women. The functional de rangements, painful disorders, and chronic weaknesses of women, can tie cured with Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. For the young girl just entering womanhood, for the hiotlier and those about to become mothers, and later in "the change of life," the " Prescription " is just what they need ; it aids nature in preparing the system for the change. It's a medicine prescribed for thirty years, in the diseases of women, by iJr. R. V. Pierce, chief consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti tute, at Buffalo, N. Y.

" 1 fl 4T ft!" A. H. Hawkins.) The king took up his glass, but find ing it empty, flung it angrily on the floor, where It shivered to fragments at Count iNikolas' feet; and he shifted in his chair and cursed softly under his breath. Nikolas sat with the dice box in his hand and a smile on his lips; for he knew that the king could not puy, and therefore must play, and he was In the vein and did not doubt win ning from the king Zenda and Its de mesne. Then he would be the greatest lord In the kingdom and hold for his own a kingdom within the kingdom and the two strongest places In ull the land. And a greater prize might then dungle in reach of his grasp. "The devil spurs and I gallop." said the king at last. And he took up the dlcebox and rattled It. "Fortune will smile on you this time, sire, and I shall not grieve at It," said Count 'Nikolas with a courteous smile. "Curses on her!" cried the king. "Come, my lord, a quick ending to it! One throw, and I am a free man, or you are master of my castle.? "One throw let It be. sire, for It grows late," assented Nikolas with a care less air; and they both raised the boxes Tho Devil Spurs and I Gallop." and rattled the dice Inside them. The king threw; his throw was a six and a five, and a sudden gleam of hope lit up his eyes; he leant forward In his chair, griping the elbows of it with his hands: and his cheek Hushed and his breath came quickly. With a (bow Count Nikolas raised his hand and threw. The dice fell and rolled on the table. The king sank back; and the count said, with a smile of apology and a shrug of his shoulders: "Indeed I am ashamed. For I can not be denied tonight." For Count Nikolas of'Festenburg had thrown sixes, and thereby won from the king the castle and demesne of Zen da. And he rose from his chair, and, having buckled on his sword that had lain on the table by him and taken his cap In his hand, stood looking down on the king with a malicious smile on his face. And he said with a look that had more mockery than respect In it: "Have 1 your majesty's leave to withdraw? For ere day dawn. I have matters to transact In Strelsau, and I would .be at my castle' of Zenda to night." Then King .Rudolph tools a sheet of paper and wrote an order that the castle and all that was In It and all the demesne should be surrendered to Count Nikolas of Festenburg on his de mand, and he gave the paper to Niko las. Then he rose up and held out his hand, which Nikolas kissed, smiling covertly, and the king said with grace and dignity: "Cousin, my castle has found a more worthy master. Hod give you Joy of it." And h motioned with his hand to be left alone. Then when the count had gone he sat down in his chair again and remained till it was full day. neither moving nor yet sleeping. And there he was found by his gentlemen when they came to dress him, but none asked him what had passed. Count Nikolas;- now lord of Zenda, did not so waste time, and the matters that he bad spoken of did not keep him long In ftrelsau; but In the early morn ing he rode out, the paper which tho king bad written In his belt. First he rode with nil speed to his own house of Festenliurg, and then he gathered to gether all his followers, servants, for esters and armed retainers, and ho told them that they were to ride with "God Give You Joy of It." him to Zenda, for that Zenda was now his and not the king's. . At this they were greatly astonished, but they nto the line dinner, and drank the wine which he provided, and in the evening they rode down the hill very merry, and trotted, nearly a hundred strong. through the town, making a great noise; so thnt they disturbed the Bishop of (Modenstcln, who was lying that night at the inn, In the course of a journey from his see to the capital; but nobody, could tell the bishop why they rode to Zenda, and presently the bishop, wearied with traveling, went to his bed. , (To Be Continued.)

The other day a great, gaunt colored man entered the .express otllcn, and edg ing up to the man In chargo took off his hat and nsked If there had been anything received for George. Washington. The clerk looked at the man searchlng ly, und therV with a knowing air re marked: "Ah, what game' are you trying to work on me now? He's been dead long ago." This story is much the same ns the story about the congressman who doclared in an address to the house: "As Daniel Webster says In his great dictionary." "It was Noah who wrote tho diction ary," whispered a colleague, who sat at the next desk. ; "Noah toothing, " replied the speaker. Noah buUt the ai k."-Flor!da Cltlsen. ..

Washington Tost: "The wonders of modern eiinlneeiliiK were eloquently and Impressively discussed in one of the pu pt rs read before the American Association for the Advancement of Science at Its re cent session, lteferrlng to coul as a pre served plant tissue, the speuker said that a man can mine enough of it in a day to obtain 133 horse power for ten hours and that product of one roan's work for one day is equul to the physical labur of 1.3U0 men for a ten-hour day.

We have seen no estimate of the amount of work reckoned on this basis, which coal performs iir the United States, but it must he equal to many times the number of men enrolled by the census takers. The superiority of Americans In the mutter of labor-saving devices for agricultural work was shown by the state ment that one American farmer rulses ns mui'h grain hs three in Engtand, four In France, live In Germany and six tn Aus tria; that In the l'i;'teil States, one man can raise food for 2. persons, whereas In F.ttrope the feeding capacity of one man Is limited to thirty persons. In conclusion the speaker made the cheering prediction that In the end the advance of engineer ing will obliterate the line between capital and labor In a manner satisfactory to all concerned. This !s totally discordant with the views of those pessimistic writers who descant upon the 'Irrepressible con flict between man and machine,' and In every labor-saving Invention a new de vice for the oppression of the working millions. Hut it accords with the lessons of experience, and that fact is Its ample vindication." RAILROAD NOTES. It may not lie generally known that locomotives destined for exceedingly fust runs require training, as do horses for racing, but such Is the fact. When a locomotive Is built for speed It is first put to work on some small branch line with light trains and kept there until it becomes thoroughly accustomed to running and all parts are brought down to their proper bearings. It Is then taken on more important portions of the lines and gradually worked up by Increasing speed until It is finally given Its place on the great "flyers." It takes several weeks to train a loco motive to really fast running. If railroad speed continues to In crease nt the present rate, the two miles a minute steam engine may be here as quickly as the mile In two min utes trotting horse. The recent great runs on the Not th western and Great Northern roads from London to Aber deen have attracted the attention of railroad men here, und It is not unlike ly that something will be done soon to bring (the speed record back to America. The American railroad men do not admit that the record has ever I. ft here. All they will admit Is thnt for ,141) miles an Fngllsh train has made a faster run than any Arncrlenn train ever did for the same distance, and one reason no American train has ever done It, they suy. Is that there does not happen to be any stretch of truck f4 miles long,- except on the I,ako Shore road. The officials of that road do not believe In extraordinarily fast time, and will not permit trains on their road to made record time. The fastest train they ever ran was the Chicago flyer, during tho World's Fair. That train made the run from New York to Chicago In twenty hours. In discussing fast running it might be timely to remark that the Lacka wanna, while It does not boast of any iimisunl bursts of speed, can, neverthe less, do so if it wished to. The man agement contents Itself with simply convincing tho traveling public that iJelawnre, Lackawanna and Western trains ure not liable to rear end col lisions from a funeral procession, lie tween New York ond Buffalo it has a train service and road bed that cannot be excelled, and this together with the fact that hard coal only Is used makes It the most popular with trav eling men of experience.. During the New York Central strike muny per sons who had been In the han't of us ing the New York Central between the metropolis nnd Buffalo were compelled to take the Lackawanna, arid, as a consequence, those people are now reg ular pntrons of the Delaware, Lacka wanna mid Western. Frequently fast runs are made on the Lackawanna which are never heard of In the news papers, which would put In the shade many of the bursts of speed which other roads take such delight In boast ing or. it Is no uncommon thing for a regular train to maintain a mile a minute gait for long stretches over all kinds of road, up hill anil down, and on certain portions of the- road which am conducive to fast running n mile a minute la considered very ordinary. H)H ANOTHER'S GREATNESS. "If It hadn't been for you," observed the shade of a Napoleon, accosting the shade of the Duke of Wellington, "the world might have been mine." "That is true," the shade of tho Iron Duke complacently replied "1 must con fess that 1 was too many fur you." "And yet," the Km pel or continued, look here." ... Together they' leaned over the cloudy battlements. "Observe," Napoleon said, with a broad, downward sweep of his arm, "thousands of bonks, millions of maga slnes, portraits my own mother wouldn't recognise the whole world talking Na poleon." 1 "And whatof mo?" the Duke said. "Well," Napoleon patronlsingly replied, "now and then you ara mentioned in a footnote, maybe."

Many stories have been printed concern ing Librarian KtiofTord's wonderful mem ory and his kno'leii);e of the whereabouts of hooks and phaniplets in the overgrown, crowded, tuinlile-tuinblety library. it would be almost ImiKjssiMe to exaggerate these siorles. tor I nave personally teslcd Mr. tqiofTurd's mwers of memory. He not only knows where every book is, but appears to be fully familiar with its con tents, its various editions, its author, its merits and demerits. Mr. Hxffonl is a library In himself.

There is some pertinence In this as to Mr. SpotTonl's cuse, but to offset It he has been the faithful ami painstaking ser vant of public men having occasion to search for Information, an indefatigable worker to stave olT chaos in the fast growing and l!l-equippeil library and a friendly (.'ilt.le tn Innumerable young men and women seeking helpful literature.
