fining Car.
EXCEPT for one other traveler,
Merrick had the luxurious chair
car to himself. Ills fellow pas
singer, a fashionably dressed young
Tion)an, was evidently 111 at case.
Muivicl: regarded her with Interest.
She was not an ordinary perPonaRo.
She was Spanish, undoubtedly, he de
cided, after a lingering Inspection. One
could see that at a glnncr. The oval
olive check, the long black lashes, the
dark eyes and the masses of bluc-blaok
Valr. all proclaimed her foreign nation
ality. Merrick studied the various labels on
hr satchel, but could make out only
tl-.c word "Itico."
Clearly she was from Porto Rico, anil
Spanish was her native tongue. ITc
remembered with a pang that lie bad
once thought seriously of taking up
Spanish. lie was suddenly tilled with
regret for bavins- decided In favor of
shorthand.
Sipii dying himself by the chairs, for
tht train was running at. the rate of
sixty miles an hour, Merrick went for
ward. "I beg your pardon, senora," said he,
pausing at the young woman's elbow.
"Ilabla y EspanolaV"
"SI, senor," replied the distressed one.
with a perfect accent and an upward
vepp of her long lashes.
Merrick having, reached the end of
his Spanish vocabulary, sat down upon
the arm of the opposite chair and gazed
In respectful silence at the lovely for
eigner, who flushed slightly, turned her
back upon the intruder and looked
steadily out of the window,
Suddenly he had an inspiration. He
leaned forward. "Parley vous Fran
cais?" "Oul, monsieur," replied the lady,
looking at him expectantly.
"Thunder! I wish I did," ejaculated
Merrick. "Avez vous Oh, thunder!"
"You might try Knglish," suggested
the lady, displaying a dimple.
"Oh!" gasped Merrick, turning erlm
eon. "I thought you were Spanish."
"So I imagined. My home Is In Xew
Orleans."
"I wanted to offer you seemed un
easy" "Oh, so uneasy," admitted the lady.
"You are in trouble; perhaps 1 could
help you."
"I am hungry," she confessed, flush
ing prettily. "I am starving."
"There is a dining car forward," be
gan Merrick eagerly. "The service is
excellent."
"But not for me. I'm a pauper. T
liave no money. My companion carried
my purse. "We were separated in a tte
mendous crush In Twenty-third street.
Fortunately, I had my ticket and
enough change to pay for my seat In
my glove. It was hopeless to think of
trying to find anyone In such a crowd,
eo J escaped with my life and came
straight to the train."
"That was certainly the best tiling to
do," said Merrick approvingly.
"I am afrajd, though," confessed the
lady, "that I have been foolishly ex
travagant I should have gone into the
day coach and saved my luncheon, hut
I hoped my friend would catch the
train. I ate very little breakfast; you
i:an't think how It makes mo feel when
ever that man pokes his head inside
the door and calls out, 'Dinner now
ready In the dining car.' "
Merrick, who had just lunched sump
tuously In Jersey City, laughed sympa
thetically. "I'm hungry, too," said ho, unblush
Jngly. "You must dine with me."
"Oh, no "
"Oh. yes. It you prefer, you shall sit
at one table and I'll take another,
hut"
"It isn't that. I shouldn't mind"
"Last call for the dining car," said
the steward, appearing at the door.
"Oh!" gusped the young woman,
hungrily.
"You see, we must go at once," said
Merrick, rising eagerly. "This Is our
last chance."
"But this Is so Improper," replied the
distressed lady, rising reluctantly.
"Not at all," said Merrick, holding
the door open encouragingly. "I assure
you I nm considered a very proper per
son in Boston. I once taught a Sun
day school clans."
In another Instant" they were seated
at opposite sides of a small table.
"What shall I order for you?" asked
Merrick.
"Oil, everything. I could devour the
ferns in this dish."
"Blue points'"
"By all means."
In spite of her hunger the young wo
man from Now Orleans ate daintily.
Merrick liked the play of the dimple In
her right cheek and the swift upward
sweep of her eyes. How pleasant,
thought he, to serve tomato bisque al
ways to such a lovely creature! How
pleasant to share all one's future mush
rooms with one that ate them ?o dain
tily! Just as his meditations hart reached
this point and the lady had reached
the salad, the steward approached with
a telegram in his hand.
"Mrs. BertrandV" he asked.
"Yes," replied the lady eagerly, but
tremulously. "I nm Mrs. Bertrnnd."
".V widow, perhaps," thought Mer
rick, hopefully. "All Southern girls
marry early.
"Would you mind opening this?" she
asked, turning to Merrick. "My hand
shakes so. A telegram always fright
ens me. Read it to me, please.''
And Merrick read:
A Bertrnnd, Passenger Train Xo. 13, etc.:
Did you takrt train? Wire instantly
Pennsylvania, station. C. Bi;rtrand.
"Your father?" asked Merrick eager
ly. "My husband," explained the lady,
with a sigh of relief ana a blush. "Have
you a pencil and will you kindly send
a. message for me'.' Ho must meet nip
in Washington. Imagine his state of
mind, poor fellow. This is our wed
ding trip." Frank Leslie's Monthly.

they might burn tho Lehigh coal! and
wo were sometimes obliged to bribe
tho journeymen to try the experiment
fairly, so averse were they to learning
the use of a new sort of fuel so differ

But oven these methods were slow to
overcome popular prejudice. It Was
only when, through a sudden rise In
tho price of charcoal, the manufactur

now fuel found Its way Into favor.

Wall Street Review.
New York. Oct. 19. Another advance In
foreign exchnngo to tho highest point
reached during tho present movement,
with nttomlnnt fears of gold exports,
brought further liquidation to tiio stock
marlfot today. A great deal of soiling wag
for account of tho western speculative
element and much of It was forced. Not
u few stop Iosb orders wero uncovered,
and room traders, emboldened by this
show of weakness, made a actios of drlve3
which loft tho list generally lower with
many sharp breaks. Uxchango advanced
to 4SC.S0, which In the opinion of somo
bankers, was several points away from
tho basis at which gold could bo used for
remittances with profit. Opening prices
for stocks wero a trifle hotter and the
activity in such issues as Balllbore and
Ohio and Norfolk and Western seemed
duo to tho nggi'esslvenes3 of ono of the
leading operators. Tho advance In South
ern Pucillc was regarded moro as a drive
against ono of tho boar pools In that
stock, whllo tho weakness of Colorado
Fuel suggested Insldo selling. Tho real
liquidation occurred In the. afternoon.

ANTHRACITE'S DOWNS AND UPS
Remarkable, History of Coal That
Public at First Refused to Use.
From tho Toronto Mall and Kxprvss.
Anthracite coal, which we are all so
anxious to get just now, was less than
a century ago, when the llrst efforts
wore made to market It, denounced as
a fraud. The puople of those days de
clared It was impossible to burn such
"stone." At the close of the eighteenth
century, in 1701, the Lehigh Coal com
pany tried in vain to sell in Philadel
phia the new fuel which had been
found on its property in Carbon coun
ty. Several attempts were made to
burn anthracite, but for a long time
the results were unlforniely unsatisfac
tory. Finally, In ISlii, tho secret was
accidentally discovered. Tests ha'd
been mndo In a rolling mill at Schuyl
kill. After repeated attempts to make
it burn by means of frequently raking
the fire, tho workmen gave up the ex
periment in disgust, filled the furnace
with the worthless "black stones" and
left It. Returning a few hours after
ward, they were amazed to find n fierce
fire with a terrlllo heat, nnd thence
forward the problem of burning an
thracite was solved.
But the people were slow to believe
that It' was possible to get heat by
burning the black stones. As late as
1S33 one Charles Miner wrote as fol
lows; "Whllo wo pushed forward our
labors at tho mine, hauling coal, build
ing arks, etc., wo had tho greater dlfll
culty to overcome of Inducing the pub
lic to use our coal when brought to
their doors, much as it was needed.
Wo published handbills In English and
Gorman, stating the mode of burning
tho coal, either In grates, smiths' fires
or in stoves. Numerous certificates
were obtained and printed from black
smiths and others who had successfully
used tho anthrnclte. Mr. Cist formed
a model of a coal stove and got a
