3IYSTER1ES OF A
PEKSLIX VALLEY.
Mary Willoughby's Strange Experi
ence in a Foreign Land.
THE VISION OF THE SILVEECUP.
From the Philadelphia Times.
Mary Wiliotijrl fVi-s had looked
on many a utrangv and U-autiful tswne
within i ho lat eleven months that he
had ivnt with the Siuilow on their
tour of the world. Hut she gave a
paij of real delight and wonder as she
rtjm5 at the ilHr of the wjualid little
Persian khan and looked out over the
valley on to the stately mountains, ris
ing pi-ak on ieak as far as the vision
could wander. It had been late the
previous nitfht when they had luiltcd
there, and though a sickly iukii strujr
jrlinfT with envious clouds had lighted
the way, she had hurried in too worn
out ly t!ie wearisome journey to tare to
lKik about.
It hatl Ikvii a rather odd c'uaiifre
which had brought them here at all,
for the little valley, cl.isjied hy the
strong Jealous arm of its mountain lover,
lay out of the 1 Hilton path of the ordi
nary tourist. They had been resigned
ly joking alonj; tliis path lieekoned by
the conventional guide, when they had
encountered a native, who, though on
'M't, was so evidently a jh-isoii of some
roiisejUotiv that Mr. Smiler, always
n the lookout for odd and interesting
thiiifM for that wonderful lxnik of his,
had arrested hint. Or no, to lie strict
ly correct, the prave, whitoliearded
man with the lieautiful face, which
ini;rht have lioeu carved from choco-lato-colorod
marble, had paused in his
stately walk as the party approached.
His hir-re, iutellijreiit eyes rested for a
moment on each inemU-r of it as they
F'id' by on surefooted little Persian
donkeys rested on Mrs. Smiler, fat,
rosy and fretful over having left her
quiet X;w Knirland home on a "wild
pioso chase," as she termed this "tour"'
her aspiring husliand; rested on
Lawrence Townsend, who had joined
them at Damascus, attracted. Miss IM
la thought, by her chubby, vivacious
face; on Miss I Mia herself, who pig
jrlod and .affectedly uracil her donkey
closer to Mr. Townsend's. Then the
ls-p, soft even fell on Mary Willough
by to wander no more, save for a mo
ment or two as the owner talked with
Mr. Smiler.
"You are writtng a Uiok," he said to
that gentleman, who stared and mut
tered: "Now, how the deuce did you know
that?"
"And you will doubtless lie glad to
nee something that is generally passed
over by the guides I localise it lies a lit
tle remote and difficult of access, and
yet which equals in licauty the vale of
Kosh-i-mur.
He wont on in as good English as
over Moore sang of the vale mention
ed. "Ah, my" Mr. Smiler had the
words "my good fellow" on his lis
but they died liefore the dignity of thai
jraze, and he went on with a rosieet
that made Marj- ojien her eyes, for re
spect for anything to unylxxly was not
usual in Josiuh Adams Smiler, whose
favorite lioast, made many times a day,
was that he was as good as anylmdy.
"And where may this place and
what makes you think it'll lie worth
my while to go out of my way to see
it?"
"The sjot lies only aliout ton En
glish miles from here and it isthe jcarl
of valleys, rich in history now un
written and preserved only in the songs
of the late singers."
Ijiwreiieo Townsend, who had heard
with interest, now urged Mr. Smiler to
take the man's advice, and Miss Ilella,
eager for anything that her fancied
i-aptive desired, joined her entreaties to
the weight of argument brought to
liear upon the leader of the party, who
finally yk-lued, turning to the stran
ger w ith a command of "lvad on."
"I" said the man, with a touch of
lianier which sat as ewsily ujion him as
njxiii a monarch I torn. Then, stij
ping to line side of the path, he sjioke
iu Arabic to the guide, who lictraycd
considerable, astonishment at the in
structions he was reiviving, but he
Imwed and saluted humbly wht-n the
other was done. "I shall conduct you,
my master," said the man when the
stranger with a slight liend of the
head pursued his way without a loick
ward glatuv, and as if tlio further ox-i-tl-ii'."'
of the party was a matter of
sv jiroriie indifference to Lint.
M?. render's dignity was so upset by
'"the internal impudence" of the mail
that he would have refused to visit the
learl of valley with a feeling that in
thi way he would chagrin the man
who had left them in so careless a man
ner, but thi- guide had already turned
the lior4, and fearing Miss Iiella'san
ger the one thing Mr. Smiler did fear
if he changed the plan, he contented
himself with fuming over the rough-
iu-ss of the way.
"We'll bnak our necks if it goes on
this rough after dark," said I.awrenee
putting out his hand to pull up the
stumbling donkey Mary rode, which
action Miss Holla observed with a flash
of her cold blue eyes and a sudden de
termination to get rid as soon as xissi
ble of the Kirl who, iK-ing iapa's pen
niless ward, he must needs bring with
them la-muse, ho pleaded, she sjioke
tiernian, French and Spanish and
picked up other tongues so quickly.
"Xo! no!" said the guide, answering
Lawretuv. "From yonder rook the
way is oven and smooth straight down;
a child might ride it."
"Well, this here valley must lie
Honiething extra," moaned lamr Mrs.
Smiler, as her donkey lureliod forward.
"I declare if this gallivanting don't
xtop Tin going to leave Mr. Smiller. I
will! I will! Marriage vows never
meant this here sort of f lolishness.
I!ut they had found the little khan
unusually clean and comfortable,
though it looked as if they were in
first guests in a century, and the host,
after a word or two with the guide, 1
came absolutely oliscqious iu his efforts
to provide and to urge them to partake
of the liest meal they had had in weeks.
But it was not until she had looked
out in the early sunrise that Mary
Wil'oughby had roaliz.il how great
had lioeu the stranger' service to tltctu
iii pointing out this jie.irl of valleys
gr-.-en as the fairest English hillside.
It wore across its pla'-id breast, like a
ri:H-kI:ioo of diamonds, a stream that
glanced down from the heights yonder
a message of love and hojie, while the
maintains themselves, like sisirtive
giants that had watched in play the
irossainer adornmcs of court ladies,
now draped aliout their grim peaks
airv roJies of snow ami ice that nusiieu
I into roseate splendor with the thousand
ever-varying tints of mother-of-pearl.
The village in the midst of which
the khan stood was small, but marked
for exquisite cleanliness and quiet,
which, in its strong contrast to the
general run of Persian villages, gave it
an air of alm.ist religious sanctity.
There were no beggars, no shops, but
few women and children, only nu n in
white, like the one they had seen the
dav U'fore. who moved aUmt with
their eyes down, and with an air of
preoecujwtion.
"o wonder that they worshiped the
sun," thought Man-, watching that
orb rise like a victorious banner over
the mountains' summit, turning their
holiday attire to a dress of bhmd.
"Now I'd just like to know what that
fellow meant by sending me here,"
broke in a voice U'hind the rapt girl,
and Mr. Smiler came forth putting.
"Why, that! Iok, uncle," said Mary
p-.inting to the scene to which he had
not raised an eye. "lX-scrilie that in
your Uk and Moore and Dyron and
Shelley will not compare with you at
all."
"Hey? Well, Mary, child, just you
write it out, will you, and I'll I'll go
over it, of course," which was his usual
speech when any allusion was made to
the great work he contemplated.
But, after breakfast, there arrived a
native gentleman in rich roU-s, who
announced that having learned that a
most erudite and wise iKiet of England
Xo? America, ti.en had arrived, he
was anxious to have that great ik t
make mention in his wonderful liook,
of which even he had heard, of some
of the stories of the land almut Mr.
Smiler won by the flattery delivered iu
so courtly and eloquent a manner,
graciously signified his willingness to
gratify this petition, so, for the greater
part of the day, this grave, stately
courtier sat at the "poet's feet, recount
ing, in English so lieautiful ami poetic
that it would have made him a won
der U'fore the learned of the civilized
world, romances and narratives
of the Persia of the days of Xerxes.
Even Mr. Smiler was impressed, and
Lawrence and Mary so obviously de
lighted that he would have luid to for
feit forever all pretext of U-iug one of
the literati hud he betrayed iiitudicucc,
and still the raconteur continued to
pour forth the riches of his memory or
imagination.
He rose at last, however, and Mr.
Smiler eyeing the sun dcclantl that
they would have to stay till next day
now, as it was too late to get Uick to
where they had turned yesterday.
When Mary Willoughby oiciied her
eyes it was to find herself looking up
at the stars. Why, where mus the
roof of the khan? Whore was IVlla at
w hose side she had laid down? She
struggled to sit up, rememU ring dis
tinctly now that she had fallen asleep
very suddenly after drinking the sher
U'rt the woman who attended the la
dies of the party had brought tlioiu.
And now she woke to feel herself lwing
carried briskly along through the
night by some one unseen on a sort of
litter with low sides. A cry of alarm
broke from her lips and she mt up
looking wildly aUiut her, liut close to
her oar a voice profoundly molanchol
ly and winning said in English: "Have
no fear, my child. Xone desires to
harm the. On tlio contrary, yours is
the most precious life in the world to
those who haw dared to bring thee a
little space from thy friends."
"But who are you?" cried the girl,
straining her eyes to make out the feat
ures of the white-clad figure beside her
and yet re-assured by the toiie.
"One of whom thou wilt havu mhii
iassiou and lend thy pure spirit for a
while
"My spirit!' exclaimed Mary, vague
fears again arising in her.
She had read of horrible rites of hyi
notisni and magic in this ntrangc coun
try, and in her terror she would have
leaped from the litter, which she now
saw was carried on the shoulders of
six men. But tt hand was gently laid
oil her arm and her fears were quieted
as a;i image passes from u mirror, and
she lay Uick conscious only of a sense
of infinite eace. In a second, howev
er, her passiveiiess gave way to wonder.
Ixiok, and look!
She was U-ing Uirne down passage,
the walls of which brought from her
cries of amazement and admiration.
Xot of glass, nor of crystal, but clear
and translucent and glowing with a
rose pink light, which, though warm,
had yet in it nothing of the heat of
fire. It diffused a clear soft radiance
by which Mary recognized the man
who had induced her guardian to come
liithv'r. and as he met her eyes he smil
ed, and his face, dark and quiet :is it
was was inexpressibly U-not'nvnt and
magnetic. He put out his hand and
the litter lcarcrs stopjusl, lowering
their burden gently io the ground,
when the stranger assisted the girl to
rise, and the men who had Uirne her
retreated in the direction from which
they had come.
Mary and her guide stood, as she
could s"e, U'fore an archway in the
glowing rook, and entering, the girl
was obliged for a moment to shield her
eyes, so dazzling was the refulgence
' from an enormous glolie of crystal
which swung with the regularity of a
IK'iiduluni from the far-reaching roof
of the temple. Aliout stood some fifty
men, their faces lightly veiled with
white gauze, and through which their
burning eyes were turned on Mary.
With her guide lieside her, the girl
knew no fear, was conscious of no om-
liarrassment at her attire, which was
the nightgown in which she had lain
down iu. She advanced confidently
to take from the hand of the tallest
figure a cup of silver which he held
out to her and U-iit her head to hittk
into the water it contained. Xot a
word was spoken to direct her; she
seemed to know instinctively what
was required of her, and as she gazed
on and on into the fluid she lost all
sense of individuality and, indeed, of
her surroundings.
For years after she tried in vain to
recall something of what she saw iu
that cup, of what she somehow with
out speech communicated to those si
lent, veiled figures aUiut; but the mem
ory was only that of wiid phantasma
goria, as of a dream, of cities and
homes, of jarring machinery, of sol
diers marching, of the confusion of
battle-fields, of voices proclaiming in
credible truths and falsehoods, and of
hovering spirits. But -of the purw.rt
of all this she could remenilier noth
ing, though at the time it was as con
nected as the day's news to you, so she
has given over pondering the matter,
and is content to know no more of un
seen things.
When she raised her head at last,
t'10 glolie over her was fast dimming,
the figures seemed to melt, to enlarge,
to mingle with the uir aUiut, and then
frightened again, she turned to the
guide U-side her, and led by him from
the temple, she walked a little way to
where the litter and its Uiirer await
ed her. She clung to the hand that
held hers, a hand soft, cool and human
and yet of a tissue as different from
her own as marble from even polished
granite.
"IVinot leave me," she whisiered,
and his voice replied soothingly:
"Xot till safe U-side the maid U-side
whom thou didst lie down will I leave
tli.i-." Thou for how long she could
not tell she seemed to slumU-r, anil
could not judge of how Ions the jour
ney, nor, by looking up at the stars of
the way. She was carriM swiftly. As
she roused herself she saw that she
stood alone with her guide liefore the
dark aud silent khan, but her compan
ion went in, setting the doors ajar for
her, and then, as she sank down beside
Bella, overcome by irresistible drowsi
ness, she felt cool lqis brush her brow
and a hand lay something opon her
breast.
"Oh, oh, oh!" cried Bella, and ojien
injt her eyes, Mary saw Miss Smiler
plucking at something on her breast.
Looking down she beheld a string of
pearls. Tiiey are crown Jewels now,
and were jamr Mary Willoughby'a
dowry when she married Lawrence
Townsend. She kept the largest, and
with it iu her hand recalls something
of the divine peace that settled upon
her like an audible blessing in that lost
temple in the heart of Persia. Her
story but for those pearls would have
Uvn set down as only a dream, Uit
convinced that here wan aonicthing
th it would indeed make his book fa
mous, Mr. Smiler went forth to eek
that temple, but he could not get a na
tive to help him, so was obliged to
abandon the the idea after nearly
breaking his neck over the n.cks and
hollows of tho vicinity. Bes'des, the
guide who had (nought them there
grew so uneasy over the searches
that he threatened to go away without
them, and moved by the entreat itw of
the rest of the party, Mr. Smiler mov
ed on.
Whenever he met any of the people
of the country whom he considered
sutlicieiitly intelligent to know any
thing aUiut it he would make inqui
ries com vrning the mysterious valley
where he had listened to those wonder
ful stories of forgo ton ages. But these
only shok (heir heads, declaring that
ho must have deceived himself in
thinking he wa ever really there,
since his description applies only to
the "Valley of Ancients," where no
foreigner h:is over set foot and reached
the outer world again.

this was after five year of matri

It was not hard for a curious person

The Wfcito Oak' Growth.
Major Jul Hotclikiss, of Staunton, Ya.,
Who was one of tho eminent judgt at the
World's Fair, has Uen preparing a rei
port 011 t'i ft in at ry imiiibit, from which
the follow in interesting fact is learned:
In the yuar 177 a patauit for 10,(mo lien's
of land In the firosts of Virginia was sur
veyed, and thouxiud mark, proUibly by
a bin knife, wa blaz on tho treus.
Major JIotchkisM lias found fivo corner
trees thus hla.el, and has cut olf bhx'ks
showing t lie mark m ule nt the time of
the survey, and also showing the rings of
growth from thy ixiint of tho original
mark, which rings iirr-sMind in iiiiiiiIht
w ith the io" years which have pass.nl
since the patent was surveyed. The av
erage growth in white oak is only aliout
four ono-htiuilreillhs of nil inch a year.
The marks are as slinrply defined ns the

Drying Tomatoe.
With our present facilities for canning
ami preserving tomatoes in many ways,
it iiii;hl seem strange fo think of drying
them, but in vjmecoimtricsthis is a com
mon tiling. In Italy an MtjHsivo busi
ness is carried on in drying tomatoes to
use during xirtioiis of the year when
fresh fruit cannot be obtained. Tomiitoes
in that country are grown Sr the most
part between rows of grape vines. Some
times the plants ucu trained on the lower
bars of tho trellis to which tljO viiiijs nr.)
attached. Tl)0 toii):it.s-s arc allow e.l t
rti'ltaiii 011 the brain-hcs until ripe. They
lira ihuii i:i)Md aii pre--c in Uigs
maib of taiarsH cloth, w h!cl) all oys th
pulp to pass through, bat whi l ruluiut
tho seinis aiel fckins. Tlio pulp is then
thinly spread out on ooth, liourds, or in
shallow diahus, uud u.ppmd to the sun to
dry.
When It h:t Uniie ijultu dry it :
broken up tme or Kr,,'i"'l, an I put in
Ikixos or Ikut and sent to market. A
largo part of it is used for soups, but a
considerable ortion is employed as we
use tomatoes when preserved in tin or
other cans. It is soaked for a few hours
in warm water, and then cooked iu the
ordinary manner.
Unite! Stitet Railway!.
The Interstate Commerce Co.iiiuissioii
in Washington has just published a re
turn showing the niiiulx-rof railway men
employed ill thu 1' lilted States. It appears
that there are no fewer than Km conipa-nii-s,
working 17H, (1 miles of railway,
and employing ST.t.iiirJ persons in all
grades. These railroads carried in lwt
.Vcl.1iii,iilJ passengers ami "t-",ll!i,tsj tons
of freight. These figures give an average
of nearly 10 milway journeys per annum
for every unit of the entire population.
Th appliances required to carry the pas
sengers :;ud move the freight included
'H.'s'' locomotives, ni,:5s passenger cars,
and l,l7,577 freight cars. The lr:insMr
tation service alono employed about 4',
tM men, or iioro than are employed alto
gether by tl railways of tlriKit Britain.
Kvory pasnour ougino drew In the yinr,
on tli average, ji.iS passim ;ors, and
each freight engine HU tons. Iluring
the year 77 employes w ere killed and
.H,7J!i injured, U'ing nn avorago of one
killed to every three huudrod ami twenty
employed. Thisdealh-rale from accident
is extremely high. The expense of work
ing the railways amounted to ?sj7,fCI,i'.,
and the capital invested is jlO,.y,lo,i).
Upwards of half the railways are owned
by alKiut 40 companies.
Auditoi-i to Get Fay for Distributing
Election Tickets.
The opinion t Judge llcan has just Urn
published deciding that Borough Auditors
who do the work of tiling, preparing, mid
distributing Uirough election tickets are
entitled to comcnsutio!i. The question
was raised by Patrick t'arr, of I-iekawai -na
County, on these facts: f, lie held
meetings to receive nomination certifi
cates, and to hear objections to same;
fe-cived notices of withdraw al anil tilled
(lilt certificates fur watchers for one day.
3, Arranged ballots, coi-roirtcd proof, for
that purp:se gi ling to and from printing
otljee, one day. 3, Ilistributed ballot to
the proer otlhrrs of the several districts
of the h trough one day. For these time
i ivs he tiled a bill for i, and the Con.
Ilissi.:iers declined to pay it.
A e.se staled was prtnntiid to the
Court, U'fore Judge Arehbald, w l:o
decided against Corr, mid on appeal to tl ft
Niipreme Court, the decision was reversed,
and Corr will gel his money.
Taxation of School Bonds,
Attoraey General Ilonsel has Instruct
ed Superintendent of l'ublie Instruction
SchaWler that school Unirds Issuing school
Uimls containing the word "frir from all
taxation" are required to pay tax on these
bonds. The school ltoard of South Wil
liamsHrt recently issued Umds making
this stipulation, and the question arose
whether tho Uimls were subject to tax
and if so, whether the tax would have ti
be paid by the holders of the bunds in the
school district. The mutter was referred
te Superintendent Schactror, w ho has re
ceived an opinion from the attorney gen
eral in which ho decides that this form of
bond establishes a bnd lntwe;:i the
1 oard and the ow ner of the Iwnds to n -Iieve
him from any tax on them and thu
the board is liable for thy state tax.
His Litils Chivalry.
Sometimes the spirit of sympathy
and tenderness crops out on apparently
barren soil. On the corner of one i f
the Irtisincss streets of n city, it shoe
bhek had J'lst finished polishing the
shin's of a wi-ll-drcsM'd man. The lat'er
was tii,firii!vr!,. jt having a ileforTe'.t y
which compelled him to wi;r a sins
on one of his feet with an oxcrdingly
thick sole, th'is endeavoring to make
up iin chauically for what nature had
denied him.
"How much shall I pay you?" in
nskid the Uiy.
"Kie inns, sir."
"Oh, luit yoii should have inure than
five cents for Mishingmy shoes," said
the gentleman, tapping the thick soli;
significantly with his cane.
"Xo, sir ; five cents is enough. 1 don't
want to make no Money out o' your
hard luck."
Tlio customer handed out a coin, laid
his hand on tho voiinsti-r's head for a
moment and passed 011.
Who says the days of chivalry are
over?
