J-.iir had boeij tacked, to the iiuiiie of

undeservedly, fir jn hi knowloilRe of
books have miu ll alirpaftxed the leading
men' of the torvn, nnil his. life wish en
tirely devoted to, suuily. Miss Omul,
ih borough member's daughter, who
hud been ut (..It-tun, herself the marvel
of .wnnmn hood In this not altogether
lx nlglitd region, spoke of Air. Slar
ilaet with respect; Indeed, for the last
tweiv month or so it had been general
ly siirinlssed that the friendship be
tiveen these (listUiKUislied persons
viild pud In eluser allianee a most
Inlfvpstliik and delightful prospect.
The lady had entered upon her twenty
seventh year: .Murlleet drew towards
forty, but preserved the complexion
and the carriage of youth. For him.
such u tmloti would In every way be
advantageous, hs, from his way of liv
ing, he evidently possessed but a ntod
t competence, nhlle Miss Cloud shone
f Iht- Sole heiress of her father's for
tune. "or- a man of' parts and ambition,
raised above the necessity of exertion
himself to earn a livelihood, it is dau
tferotm. after academic nuecess. to re
turn to his native country town and
settle there with the purpose of produc
tive study. A a rule, men have no
uui-h temptation. 1'ercy Marfleel. whose
bent of mind was all towards homeli
ness, and who shrank from the tumult
V . the. ureal woilil, even while credit
ing himself with power to win distinc
tion, decided utter a very brief trial of
London, that he could not do better
than no back to the scenes of his youth,
where kindly notice would Inspire him.
Where .his health wdul.d be at Its best,
and where a modi ut Income would, he
Imagined, assure him a much better
status than among strangers. His fam
ily had a good name in the town; since
the death of his iwrents and the mar
riage of his sister, upon him alone lay
the duty of keeping the name in hon
orable prominence. Moreover, he owned
tie house in which he had been -burn,
where the days of' his boyhood had
been passed. . With Infinite' content
mwiat he- read the newspaper paragraph
which made known that "Mr. Percy
Murlleet,. the son of our late honored
townsman, havfng completed a distin
guished career at the . I'niversity of
1'ambrhlge," had returned to the town,
and Intended to make it his permanent
abode.
From his earliest school prize to the
final Is'tmis at Cambridge, each step of
Percy's progress had been chronicled
by the local paper. No special brilliance
appeared In the successive achieve
ments; he had done well, nothing more;
but local pride made rr'ich of his acad
emic record. He was understood to be
great in history:" to historic study his
life would be dedicated; if he rail up
to London or to Cambridge, the news
paper announced that he was gone
for the purpose of "consulting original
documents." At first he declined to
take any part In the affairs of the town,
for which he had absolutely no leisure;
but little by little certain honors were
Hiriint upon him, ami the satisfaction of
milking little speeches, carefully pre
wired and no less carefully reported,
lured, his mind from exclusive occupa
tion with the past. At length he could
be depended upon for an annual lecture
at the literary society, for an address
Of an enlightened movement uncon
nected with politics. From strictly
municipal business he succeeded ill
holding aloof, his true reason being
ear of expense;, but this prudence not-
NOWADAYS HE ONLY riKAH.
Withstanding: the esteem he enjoyed
necessarily cost him-somethlng in coin
of the realm, and such demands upon
his pocket grew henvieti and more fre
quent With the progress or time. The
day cume when Percy had seriously to
'consider his limtnclal position. Seeing
no immediate way out ol the difficulty,
and foaling so comfortable in his daiiy
lire that a complete change could hard ly
be thought of, he Insensibly drifted
Into carelessness of th- future. And
so It tame about that, iu bis thirty
eighth year, having long lived upon cap
. flat, with steady growth of expenditure
from Christmas to Christmas, he saw
before him' an Inevitable crisis. In
come he no longer possessed: mere--ly
a turn of money which, even .with
parsimonious management, could last
him only a short time, a ml at the pres
ent late of living would dissolve with
awful rapidity. -
In the way of lltff-nry productions he
had done' nothing. Years ago he made
tin secret of his undertaking; the work
of .his life was to be a continuation of
Mdcaulay; latterly he very seldom
yimke on this subject, or even distantly
alluded to It. Hinee his thirtieth year
scarcely u Jotting had been added to
the notes and rough sketches previ
ously accunmlntPd. Nowadays he only
, read, and for the most part his reali
zing had no connection with historic re
search. A large library, collected at
tut small outlay, gathered dust upon
the shelves. ' Kxpenslve publications
still .reached him. simply because lie
lacked the courage to discontinue his
subscriptions, and so to confess that
his one object In life had melted away,
together .with his money. He spent the
wonted number of hours locked In his
study, but more often than not a day
Bragged through Jn sluggish mooning
or in the tortures of anxiety. As usual,
he pottered about the garden: as
usual, he paid and received -visits, at
tended meetlngs."mad( 'Hi tie speeches,

One hope remained: yet it could hard
ly be called a hope:' rather, a troubled
Imagination or something that might
have fallen to his lot In huppUr circum
stances. I'ntil of late no thoughts of
marriage had lured or perturbed him;
he cared but moderately for the society
of women, and. like most men of his
temper, kept very clearly In view the
sacrifices and perils attaching to wed
lock: his pleasant, roomy house, al
ways quiet and fragrant under the rule
of an excellent domestic, would under
go such changes if a mistress entered
into iMjssession. For all that, there was
one woman who often occupied his
thought, and in some degree hud power
over his emotions: In part iiecause of
her social rank, partly because of her
education, and. lust but not least, by
virtue of her personal charm. Certain
ly he liked Kvellne Cloud: he was Mat
tered by the deference she paid him,
and felt something very attractive in
the modesty with which she spoke of
her own attainments. By slow degrees
their Intimacy had grown and ripened.
At flrst he was slightly afraid of her;
the smile ever lurking about her lips
seemed to threaten criticism of an un
familiar keenness: who could say what
equipment of modern views these young
ladies brought with them from G irton?
Gradually he perceived that Eveline's
posttlon in the town was somewhat like
his own that her prestige rested upon
vague report rather than on present
evidence of learning and ability. He
Judged' her- Intelligent, but certainly
not profound. Nor did he make parade
of erudition: her tastes seemed decided
ly simple; If he mistook not, she pre-

ferred the companionship of her pro
vincial friends to the society she met
when With her father Ih London. Her
Interest In local concertis became more
pronounced: she was fervent in ortho
doxy, and, as years went on, accepted
with decision her place us leading lady
In social, or charitable organizations.
Personally, Miss Cloud no longer over
awed hltn, for he felt that he under
stood her. Her behavior to him was
of such frank friendliness that no
wonder their acquaintances observed
them with a genial smile. Marflect
sometimes came away from the house
brooding. Hut for his incredible folly,
which hud brought him within sight
of disaster he saw no means of repair
ing, might he not reasonably have
aspired to a marriage which would at
once exalt his position ami promote his
happiness? What possibility of It now?
The secret, of which no one had a sus
picion, weighed but the more heavily
upon his own mind.
In conversation one day with Miss
Cloud, he chanced to speak of some
political incident In the reign of Queen
Anne, a point which It seemed to him
the historians had misunderstood.
"Have you reached' that In your
book?" asked Kvellne, with a glance of
Interest.
His eyes dropped; he was uncom
fortably aware of that lurking smile
about the fresh-colored Hps.
"In the first rough draft," he 'con
strained himself to answer. And F.ve
llne's eyes reassured him, so friendly
were they, so devoid of troublesome
curiosity.
"Have you never thought, Mr. Mar
Meet, of publishing some portions of
your work In periodicals as some
writers do?"
Yes. he had thought of It. and very
lately. To he sure no portion of his
work wis written, but might It not be
possible 1 1 shape out of his notes a few
interesting chapters, which the re
views would print and pay for? 'Miss
Cloud's happy suggestion hud a strong
effect upon him; it revived his ener
gies, and for the next few weeks he i
actually engaged in literary compos I- 1
ieii. nr wiuu-u imperoi some leugtn,
and dispatched it to the editor of an
Important monthly. What was more.
so sanguine had he become In conse
quence of this effort, that he revealed I
the matter to Miss Cloud
"I am delighted!" was her exclamn- j
Hon and she really looked It. "When '
do you think It will appear?" j
"Oh." he faltered. "Impossible to sav.
Perhaps- It might not strike the editor !
as worth much."
"What! the result of years and vears i
of study! That's Impossible." And
Kvellne added: "I have noticed. Mr. j
Murlleet. that you seem lather despoil- :
dent of late." i
They were alone on one of the garden ;
terraces, and Kveline's voice had an In
tonation or peculiar gentleness. A more !
ardent admirer or less scrupulous mall
would have used the opportunity :Jdar- i
nrei nit-ifi.v grew coniuseu.

us noiiiing. i wasnt num-o r
its--" ;
"I'm afraid you work too hard "
sounded In the soft, kindly accents, j
"oh! deal, no!" He laugh. (!. "
feel perfectly well perfect ly."
And, indeed, there was little amiss In '
his appearance. He .had a pleasant I
color, a clear eye. the excellent teeth '
of a healthy man who did not smoke.
For years he had gone to bed at eleven
o'ce"k and risen only at nine; he had
never fallen short in exercise, ate
heartily, and found 'plenty of amuse- j
meiit. It would take a long time be-'
fore mental distress, such as he was
now suffering wrote itself upon his !
countenance. No one thought It unnat- j
urul for Allss Cloud- to take Un Interest
In Mr. Murlleet; decidedly he was a'
personable man. well set up, well feat- i
tired, and always carefully dressed.,
c.veiiiie.- tor ner part, could not be
called handsome; but for her position,
suitors would hardly have singled her
from a group of amiable-looking young
women. Yet the good blood In her
veins, the kindly, intelligent llttht of
her eyes, and that lurking smile, i
wrought durable bonds for the heart
or any man once thoroughly subdued j
to their charm.
Not long after this conversation Miss
Cloud went with her fajher to town, i
where she remained for more than!
three months. For nearly the same
period Percy Martleet lled In uncer
tainty as to the fate of Ills historical
essay, and the time paWd dreorlly
euough. When Kveline's -eturn drew
near he resolved to make Inquiry of the
silent editor, and m speedy reply put
an '-end to his suspense. The editor re
gretted that he could not make use of
Mr. Marlleefs interesting paper, which
he now- sent back, v It was a blow to
Murlleet. and'after a'few days spent in
recovering from the dizziness, the poor
felw took a dark resolve.

The board of directors of the I-ehlgh
Valley Hailroad company at a recent
meeting decided to restore the 10 per
cent, reduction In salarlea made In 1HS3.
The change affects all employe who re
eenved fixed yearly compensation.
Anthracite Interests claim that the
actual demand for iea and buckwheat
sizes of coal at advances la destined to
materially Increase earnings. Hereto
fore these sizes-have been more or less
of a drug on the market at this season.
The improvement is attributed In part
to the formation of the soft coal ikm1.
bituminous being a direct competitor In
the steam 'market.
The Supreme court of Virginia has
just decided a case of great Important
to railroads and other .corporation In
that state. It was the rase of the New
York. Philadelphia and Norfolk Rail
way company against the board of su
pervisors of Northampton county. In
w hich the right of the county to levy
the property of such companies for
district school taxes was Involved. The
court holds that -this cannot be done
under the present statutory laws.
At the annual meeting of the stock
holders of the Coluimibus, Hocking Val
ley and Toledo Hailroad company held
Wednesday the following directors
were elected: Thomas F. Kyan. C. H.
Alexander, W. A. Mills. C. Morris, J.
W. Kllsworth, Calvin S. Itrlce. V. W.
Huntington, Samuel T. Iavls and
James Kllbourne. Samuel D. Davis
was elected first vice-president and
Charles It. Alexander second vice
president. The full report for the year
was not ready to be submitted to the
stockholders, owing to the recent death
of President Walle.
Officials of the Southern Uallway
company say that the plan proposed
with reference to Memphis and Charles
ton will prove profitable to the South
iern road on account of the volume of
new business which can be given to the
Memphis and Charleston. Heretofore
the Southern railway has turned west
ern traffic over to the. Kansas City.
Memphis and Birmingham line because
the Southern had a larger haul by this
route than It would get by tile Memphis
and Charleston. It received business
in exchange at lilrmlnglmm. Should
the Southern control the Memphis and
Charleston, It could at once divert this
amount of business to the Memphis and
Charleston line.
i
INDUSTRIAL.
Says the stockholder! A general air
of satisfaction pcrnieutes the anthra
cite coal trade these days. Kvery bit
of coal that Is being mined finds a
ready market, and some of the Inter
ests are complaining that they are
forced to buy from competitors to meet
orders. In view of this, full circular
prices are not surprising, in, talking
with different producers, we have In
(lulled if this shortage will not lead
to an Increase in production. The gen
eral answer has been that it will not,
and there appears to he very little de
sire in that direction. Whatevertontrol
Hug Influence there may be in Ihe trade
will be exercised against It, and In ad
dition the companies as Individuals
would be opposed, fearing a repetition
of the demoralization of previous years.
They are very well satisfied with cur
rent net results, which return fully :I0
cents per ton more for coal than was
received In March of last year. An Im
portant fuctor from the revenue point
of view Is the sharp advance In pea and
buckwheat sizes. They are In excellent
demand at from $i.:iO to $2.50 for. pea.
and for buckwheat. This Is an ad
vance of some :10 to fQ cents per ton.
and returns a handsome profit on from
L'O to : per cent, of the total tonnage.
Of lute a number of washerles operat
ing on the culm banks have been put
ting out quite a heavy output. This is
ulso meeting with a good demand at a
fair price. We have heard very little
of late of an Increase In freight rates,
and It is probable that this will not he
made unless there Is a further advance
In prices. As to higher figures for
coal this spring, there is some little
diversity of opinion, although the ma
jority are of the belief that the present
circular will be reaffirmed for the spring
and summer. There were a number of
renorts lust week In the New York
market of slight concessions by inde
pendent operators. As far as we can
learn these are practically baseless.
The operators Independent of the com
panies are having no difficulty In se
curing their quota of tonnage, but any
attempt to exceed this amount is met
with a statement from the railroads
that there Is a shortage of cars. Know
ing that they cannot increase their ton
nage, they are naturally anxious to re
ceive as much therefor as possible. Most
of the Independents are marketing their
coal on the 40 and t0 per cent, basis,
and when they compare net returns
with those of this time last year they
are very well satisfied with the situa
tion. ," Youngstown, .. dispatch says:
