Mr. Murgatroyd is a wealthy English
tanker, hard and selfish In temper, but
devoted to his only son. In whom all his
opes center. Tne Banners brother,
Ocorse. had been something of a svabe-
aracv, and when Anally he married "a
in(lng woman" was disinherited. All
trace of him has been lost; indeed, it
aeems that Uttle effort was made to as
nam ois late, -rue ratner or Mr. Murgu
troyd had recently died, and It has teen
elded that the boy. Jack, must remain
at school during- the holidays, much to the
Sorrow of his mother. But Jack, unable
to ear the disappointment, runs away.
On learning of this Mr. Mugatroyd takes
the train to seek. for htm. He presently
comes to an obstruction the wreck of the
train which tha poor boy probably took.
IB - darkness, rain and confusion he
Marches for hla son, hut his agonised In
quiries bring only rebuffs. He has Juit
been anxiously questioning a riotous party
of Christmas carolers and received an oit
ttand invitation to Join in their singing.

Mr. Murgatroyd did not pause to ah
wer, but sped a fast as he could
walk faster than went the lurching car
olers, towards the inn, .the light from
Which he could see like a luminous
tangle of floss silk in the rain and fojr.
He rushed into the house. Men were
Standing in the passage, others were
in the bar. The landlady was running
about in semi-dlstractlon. She caught
a glimpse of the anxious father. "It's
no use," she called, "can't give another
bed. All's ockepied, wot with them as
Is brought from the accident, and. wo:
we wants oursels. It's no use, nobody
can attend you."
"I don't want a room," replied the
tanker.' "I want to know about the
sufferers, who they are "
"I can't attend to nobody, my head
and hands is full." retorted the land
lady, and rushed up the steep stairs.
He appeale-J to the landlord, who took
Inatteis composedly.
"Have you here many injured per
iods?" he asked. ,

"Is one of then a boy?"
"Well,' you may cv.il him a boy If you

"""" middlla'-About Three
Mr. Knrgatroyd left the house and
hastened In the direction of the sur
geon's dwelling. He had not far to
walk, tha house lay beside the highway.-
He caught up the carolers,' who
had passed the Horse and Jockey with
out their hymn, aware that sufferers
Wert within, and that the people of the
tavern were too occupied to regale
them.
r "Tell me," said the banker, "where Is
the doctor's bouse I mean Vesuvius?"
. "Right ahead. There you are. Sorry
you ain't a halto, or you'd ha' been use
ful." -V .
' The hanker opened an Iron gate, ran
through the tittle garden and paused
at the front door. -
After some delay the door was opened
, by a maid, and Mr. Murgatroyd thrust
himself Into the hall, as the narrow
passage leading to the staircase would
be designated.
' "I say the boy who la hurt who

He could hardly speak, he was so agi

At that moment he heard a voice:

With a smothered cry Mr.Murgatroyd
lashed past the maid; he had recog

tlnctly; he had been In the darkness,
now he was in a room in which biased
a lamp.
f When his eyes accommodated them
selves to the light he saw' a lady with
a very sweet face stooping over a bed,
with her arm under the head of a child
who was in it. caressing the little hot
cheek and kissing the clammy brow.
She had not seen him enter. She had
heard the steps, and concluded they
were those of the returning mnld. She
swayed the suffering child in her arms,
and catching the notes of the carolers
in the distance Dang, with a clear, mu
sical voice:
"Light and life to alt He brines.
Risen with htallng in HU wings.
Hall the Heaven-born Prince of Peace,
HMl the Bun of Righteousness!"
"My son my son!" cried the eager.
agitated father, running forward and
throwing himsolf by the bedside.
"Papa!" exclaimed the boy, and put
out his hands and drew his father's
head to him to kiss. "I knew you'd
come. Tou won't be angry at my run
ning away from school?"
"Angry with you, my dear!"
The agitated father could say no
more.
Presently he rose and said In a shak
ing voice to the lady: "Is he much
hurt? Excuse my intrusion. I heard
his voice when in tlio passage."
"I am glad you have come," the lady
answered. "Your little boy Is shaken,
bruised, frightened. In a nervous condi
tion, but there is no material harm

done. My husband Is a surgeon, and
he has examined him thoroughly. No
bones are broken; there are some con
tusions, that is all. What he needs Is a
good sleep, and I trust he will get that,
now he has seen you. He has been wor
rying because he thought you would be
angry at his running away from
school."
"Set your mind at rest," said Mr.
Murgatroyd to his boy. "Jack, you hear
what the good lady says. You must try
to go to sleep."
"I will, papa, if you wish it."
"1 wish It above everything."
"Let me hold your hand, then."
So the little hot hand was thrust Into
the father's cold palm, and Mr. Mur
gatroyd sat on the bed looking at his
son.
"Please go on singing," said the child
to the lady who was nursing him. .
She smiled, and recommenced:
"Hark, the herald angels sing!"
So they sat on the bed, clasping
his child's hand, she with her arm un
der the little head, crooning the Christ
mas hymn, In a Voice like that of a dove.
soft, sweet, low, becoming lower Im
perceptibly as the child doted off, and
then ceasing.
"I cannot sufficiently thank you,"
said the banker, In a choking voice.
Tears were In his heart. Tears of
thankfulness to Heaven that his son
was safe, tears of gratitude to the sweet
kind woman Who had nursed the child
as her own son.
The hours of the night passed.
The surgeon had not returned home.
He Was fully engaged that night at
tending to the many patients who had
come under his care through the acci
dent. ; f
But towards early morning, yet long
before dawn, his latch-key sounded in
the Jock of the front door.
"There Is my husband," said the lady,
with a flush of pleasure and love In her
face.
His step was head on the stair; then
In the room.
"Well, Bessie, how Is your little
charge?" .
Mr. Murgatroyd started, he felt a
spasm at his heart, and turned and
started to his feet now only re
leasing his son's hand,
"fleorge!" .
"Samuel!"
The brothers, to long parted, stood
face to face.
The carolers, returning under the
window, sang:
"He spnke, and straightway the celestial
choir
In hymns of Joy, unknown before, con
plre." "Oeorge,"ta!d the banker. In a broken
voice, "how can I sufficiently thank you
and my" He could speak no more,
his heart was full The carol-slngers
oang on:
."Qod's highest glory was their anthem
still,
Peace upon earth, and unto men good
will.
"George,'' raid the banker, recover
ing himself, "a great wrong has been
done you by by'my poor father, and
no less by me, A wrong to you and to
your dear wife. . It shall be my first
duly to redress tills wrong."
"Not a word about wrongs now," said
the surgeon. , "I wat a bit of a scape
grace. If I am steady and hard-working
how, I owe It to her." He looked
tenderly at his wife.
"George," tald the banker, " It is now
Christmas day. The boy Is getting on.
Positively hfi must be taken home to
hit mother this day, and you and your
wife my elster-lnVlaw must dine with
us."
-"No," answered the surgeon, "that
cannot be. The sufferers demand my
presence here. .Tour boy my nephew
cannot be removed. ' I will wire as
soon at possible to hit mother to come
here. We will all keep Christmas to
father tinder my roof."
And now the pealing of Christmas
bells came through the window, min
gled with the Song of the carolers:
"Poce upon earth, and unto men good
... will," . . .
The Brothers held each other's hands,
thd the tears that had long been held
back rolled down the banker's cheeks.
"Bessie, sister,", he stammered, "let me
kiss you. 'Piatt upon earth, and unto
men coed Will.' X , .

A Shamoktn dispatch says: Plant
have just been rerfected by the of
ficials of the Reading Coal and Iron
company that, when consummated.
will transform Its old Bast colliery at
Big Mine Run, and Its older Potts col
Hery at -Locust Dale, into one of the
most extensive mine openings In the
anthracite region, if not in the world.
These arrangements provide for the
sinking of a slope and a shaft respec
tively that will extend from the sur
face to the basin of the coal measures,
thus tapping all of the veins of coal In
existence there, and also making it
possible to mine hundreds of thousands
of tons of superior fuel that it was im
possible to cut fin partially worked
veins in the past. Tho first of these
big shafts will be sunk on the old Potts
colliery at Locust Palo, and will be
continued until the 'ssin is reached. It
Is expected that by t'.: means of this
vertical opening 9C0 yards will pene
trate the earth to the Fame depth as
i.OPO yards of slone woull do and the
strain on the timbers will be corre
spondingly reduced and the mining ot
the deeper coal seams will be made con
siderably cheaper and safer. Mining
experts, who have studied this question
for years, predict that the Innovation
of shafting will revolutionize the
methods of mining row In vogue. The
matter of introducing electric power
for coal haulinrr and lighting purposes
in several of the Reading company's
mines that have pitching veins Is also
being seriously considered by the offi
cials, as the plant recently placed at
the Enterprise mine Is working very
satisfactorily.

The rote of wages fixed By the com
mittee of tho Schuylkill coal exchange
to be paid miners In this region for tne
last half of November and the first half
of December is eljrht per cent, below
the $2.50 basis. This Is the. highest rate
of wages pafd since November of last
year, when the rnte for the first half
of the month was also eight per cent,
below that basts. Theaveragecalculated
rate for the present year, including the
latest rate Is 12V& per cent, below the
basis. During June, July, August, Sep
tember and October wages went 15, 16
and 17 per cent, below the basis, but the
Philadelphia & Reading company paid
at the rate of 12 per cent, below, mak
ing the average payments to Its em
ployes for the year 10 per cent, below
the basis.
A meeting of the bituminous coal op
erators will be held In New York today
to take such action as will create har
mony In the trade and an Increase in
the price of this variety of coal. Some
time ago a committee was formed to
prepare a plan for the restoration of
rates and the restriction of production.
Before this was done the individual
operators were to be seen and their
co-operation solicited. It Is said that
all the coal producers in the various
districts have been seen and they have
given their consent to going into any
scheme that will be of benefit to the
trade.
The town of Keystone, S. Dak., has
grown from Its three log cabins in 1891
to a place of 1000 people. It has three
mills crushing ore and two more build
ing, with good buildings, schools, etc.,
and all the signs of a flourishing civil
ization. Two lines of railroads are sur
veyed to the camp, which will be built
In the near future. The town thus far
has had a legitimate growth due to the
finding and working of new mines, but
there is no doubt that with the advent
of the railroad the camp will suffer all
the effects of the Western boom.

The report that an extensive deal is
about to be consummated involving Im
portant freight connections between
the Long Island railroad and the Jer
sey Central, Baltimore and Ohio and
Lehigh Valley railroads is denied by
officials of the latter company. The
scheme was said to include the build
ing of a bridge between Bergen Point,
N. J., and Staten Island, and a car ferry
between the latter and Bay Ridge.

The Luke Fldder Mine at Shamoktn
which was flooded over a year ago for
the purpose of extinguishing th fire
which resulted in the death of many
men and thirty-five mules, will soon
again be put In operation. AH the water
has at last been pumped out. The
bodies of the mules have also been
taken out. The estimated loss by the
flood is $30,000.
The Lehigh Valley Railroad company
has awarded a contract for the equip
ment of 186 miles of its track with auto
matic signals, which, when erected. will
give the company 235 miles ot tracK
protected by these signals. It is said
the company Intends to equip Its whole
line with these signals.
What are claimed to be the largest
Are englnes'ln the world are the two
built recently In London. One Is capa
ble of throwing 1400, the other 1800 to
2,000 gallons of water per minute. The
machines weigh three and one-half
tons each, and can be readily drawn at
full gallop by four horses.
-tilt-Three
times as many American horses
have been sold In England this year
as were called for in 1884, and "heir
average price at the ports of shipment
has been $156. They are used chiefly
for draught in London.

Our merchant marine decreased 60,
000 tons In the year ending with last
June. Only 252 voyages were made be
tween the United States and Europe
under the American flag, as against 10,
233 under foreign ones.
There will be a meeting of all Initial
anthracite coal carrying lines In New
York on Friday, to take up tho ques
tion of advancing the freight rates on
coal to western points fifty cents per
ton.
The Philadelphia 'inquirer Is convinced
that the coal trade will never thrive until
the Reading railroad is accorded the hog's
