A Ten gent Romance - The sun was setting in the west it generally sets in the east, but thisis to be an original tale—when a young lady, gotten up rtardless of expense,. might have been seen leisurely saun tering over the flower covered prairie towards her father's mansion. She might have run as well as to 4 itiunter, - but -undue exercise Would have dis placed her chignon, and so she saun tered. She_wits - a - beantiful *circlet] of her rac4—the Jones family ; her gracefully b i rched neck reminded one of the wild gazelle ; her eyes flashed forth melting glances.; her carriage was faultless. It may be well to state right here that this young lady's car riage belonged to her gait. Ever and anon, as she sauntered albug, she stopped to behold the flashes of expiring sunset. which glanced through the grand old forest treed. She might have been squinting to see If Chawles was coining to sit up - with her that night, but we prefer' to put it the other way. The sun at last hid his face.in sadness behind the bill.

Alab I alas I The heroine did not know that just around .a little clump of bushes there lurked, in all his hor rid war paint, the savage chief.

The reader will now have to return with us to a period of four thousand years ago, in order to find out why Miss Jones was walking toward her father's mansion t and why Cross Eyed Buffalo Calf was smooching down behind the bushes to deprive her of; her innocent young life. On' second thought, we believe that there will be no need of it, be toying that our future lucid explanations will convince the reader that Miss Jones had no thought Of the cruel fate which awaited her. However, it will be at well to see what is transpiring in the house. In the parlor bedroom there sits a middle aged man, heavy shoulders and symmetrical waist, and ho is trying to patch up j a torn ten cent shinplas ter. At length he rises, and speaking to himself,.says, ‘l.wonder where Han nah is 1' His voice rang through the house, but alas ! his Hannah wag far away. That was exactly what , ailed Hannah.

Alt reader, you might be a Jones, a father, the father of a Hannah, and take down your rifle a thousand times o'er, and still never see the sight he did !

A solemn , requiem was tolled by the city bells,-flags-were hung at half mast, atom were closed, the principal streets deserted, the nu merous locomotives draped in mourn big; and all the, working population of Scranton appeared to have betaken themselves to Avondale, one 'train of thirty seven platform cars carrying 3,500 : passengers to the scene of the late disaster. • So great-was the crush that two men were knocked off the care and cut to pieces. The throng at Avondale wasimmense and extended down the railroad track for miles. A vast majority of those persons came purtly from motives of curiosity. There were hundreds of women, dressed in costume . more befitting a picnic than a funeral, and among many 4.11 the men there was a levity and .rude ness of manner better adapted to the neighborhood of a prize ring than a solemn scene of such great grief. 'The coffins, - in grim array, were piled 'upon a coil - strut:flow carriage. On reaching Scranton they werodeposited, one by one, in ten hearses and a num ber of . v.agons. The . crowd .that fol lowed this dismally formidable funeral to the .Welsh cemetery .11 Hyde Park numbered over 'three thousand, all ou foot, rof a decent and wed 'behaved class of people. When the third Coffin was about be ing lowered into one of- the long and regular row of .eicavationS, -a-woman rushed forward and with desperate en ergy threw_ herself upon the coffin, crying; " You shan't bury my William! You shan't! you shan't ! Give him back qto me! Or, if you won't, - bury me with him!" Finally, the • poor creature, betraying in her distracted face all the strongest emotions of a pas sionate sorrow, was prevailed up oi to let the coffin - be lowered in its place. But as the men began to shovel the Oath in on top of it; she threw her eyes up towitrairheaven, claspedlieftto ulous bands, and, with an expression of the wildest despairing anguish in her face, which those who -saw will never be likely to forget, exclaimed,. " Oh, Almighty God 1 take. me—take me where my William is I" And with frequOnt repetitions of this strong im ploration she passed with weary steps out of the cemetery gates. ,The rest of the interment ceremony Was marked by no especial incident, and the large assemblage 'present dis persed quietly when all had been con signed to the grave. Dr. Roberts preaohed the funeral sermon. A great deal of controversy is going on,in town to-night on the question of who is to blame for the present ineffi cient way of ventilating mines and giv ing protection to_the miners. One side insists it is the miners who are to blaine, for if they choose t s y, " We will not work in any mine which is unprovided with a means of escape in case of acci dent to the shaft," the owners of mines „would..quickly*e it was their interest to adopt the proper precautions against the tlaugere - that are now so apparent. Miners, they Bay, will take the risk of working anywhere, provided they are paid, and are as utterly indifferent to palpable danger as the sailor who goes to sea in II leaky snip. =I AirONDALF., Pa., Sept. B.=Standing on the track of the Lackawanna and Bloomsburg Railroad, to day, at noon, and looking up the steep hill side at the ruin's' of the once fleprishing coal mine of Avondale—the shattered en• gine house. built of atone, the tore, twisted and scattered machinery, the eloping ridge of fiercely_ fired embers filling the motionless air with a strong and shimmering' . heat, the blackened wreck of coal chute and breaker, the charred oak and hickory trees upon the hill above, and the utter wreck and ravage df the scene allover, impressed the srctator with awe and Aeriouotie6s. But much more awful tied serious must become the coror of his thoughts when told that from beneath that fearttil ruin the bodies of 200 human beings, a few days since full of strong anti o palpitat ing life, were being brought 'out, one by one, black and bloody - corpses, and bearing many marks of a brief but des perate struggle with the doom of suf focation in the horrible gloom of the pit below. Knowing the character of the occur rence.and the purpose for 4hich,theisp crowds of saddened women and solemn men have gethertd, lining the disman• tied -walls in - coihpact 'and 'sorrowful numbers, it had a strangely dismal ef fect upon the Inind to see :soiling from ige mouth of a loci, tervals of•iivery fifteen minutes thrOugh the day and night; four weary, wiTru men, bearing on a stretcher the. • lack , sued form of a human. being, across , the distorted, face of, which a coarse, white - 'Roth' wits thrown ; and as: the melanchbly cortege moved up between the ranks at_ either .side of• mourning miners,' the awful presence of death made itself asserted.

Moving straight onward at right angles to the shaft, and at a distance from it of . 220 - feet, the furnace for creating a draught of air through_tho_galleries arid T eham.. hers of the mine, might be found blaZ big-away in dangerous, proximity- to the'. woodwork lining of .the -paisage way reserved for the adrnifision of 'the fresh air curronf's. It was spark, from this furnace falling on the dry scant ling adjac :tit Chat caused the accident. it blazed up rapidly; the flames made - a running leap to the bottom of the shaft, caught the Wooden partition already mentioned, and clambering up the 237 feet, seized on the heavy wooden breaker overhead, which never should have been there, and piercing with,s. fierce and steady tongue of fire through the supports, brought . down the ponderous beams, the debris of the breaker and the coal Within it into the shaft, clidking up its space to a depth of forty feet, shutting out the fresh air from above,aud turning back. the sul phurous gases from the blazing fur nace' to the galleries- and chambers where the - miners -were at work. 'rhi.4 took but half an hour or so on Mon day morning lath 'the men had de scended to their work but three_hours . befdie. HOW THE MEN MEP THEIR DEATH It should be explained that the gal leries,which penetrate this mine are regular in line, running east anu wetZt under the hill to a considerable dis lance,.with chambers at . intervals and _doe ra_at..vany t ances_tu.-keep..out currents of foul air. There is no doubt gut that the millers at once divined the accident—that had occurred, and took prompt measures to save' themselves: . In the long galleries, running devious ly east and west, the miners were scat tered at work, some in the gangways, others in the chambers, folluw ing the usual routine of daily toil. Laborers were filling , the airs from the broken coal brought down by the miner's pick ; boys were 'driving forward the mules Jurthe itrouth - oftlre - s h a — withft car. loads oriMrlbntlzteiNlrkAfid, bto rdi above; all proceeding in the cus tomary way, when tlre,rush back of the sulphurous gas fro the furnace teld the miners too well the, nature of the disaster that bad occurred: In the light of what the brave men discovered, on going down early this morning, to rescue their fallen comrades,. -we can easily trace what followed when the discovery became known through the mine that the shalt was stopped and the fresh air of heaven-excluded. All those in the, vicinity of the furnace retreated by (Vinding ,ways so as 'to avoid all contact with the poisonous gases, to the utmost limitssofthe mine, to a gangway 1,200 feet from the bot tom of the shaft. No ' doubt there was a tearful hurrying backwards, for the fatal carbon rushed with hot and rust lingbreath along the galleries and over toolqii6y a poor fellow who vainly strove to reach some place of delusive safety. At the enttance of the last galley of the mine 67 appalled but yet collected miners met, and with the true instinct of selfpreservation, proceeded at once to barricade themselves in between a space extending in a semicircular sweep some 200 feet. At either end of this limit were two doors which Were instantly closed, and ou some crevices being discovered the men pulled their shirts off and stopped the interstices, but not before the fearful demon in the air•liad penetrated their last retreat—not in fince, however, but in sufficient strength to do the .work of death with unerring certainty. In this terrible chamber their lamps extin guished, and the blackness of eternal night-closed around them. It is care fully estimated that the strongest of themen,soccumbedjo eight hours after their seitimmurement. The niiply of fresh lair which they locked in was quickly exhausted by the breathing of 67 pairs.of powerfnl lungs ; while all the time the, coal , above, below and around them was emitting tile deadly Carbon. Mr. Thom" one of the first' of the heroic fellows who penetrated to this point in search of the mission. b men, reports that, after breaking in the bar rier and, gaining entrance to the gang way where all the human, lives surren dered to the King of Terrors, the' dght that met his gaze completely unmanned him, and he wept like a little child To him there was. something terrible in the spectacle : the men were once his ' comrades;, their b e grinunerl faces were familiar to his eyel;•and from the dan ger of which they were the victims he had many narrow escapes.

It is utterly impossible adequately to describe the te:rible scenes of bitter anguish among ihe women and chil dren outside the I one tluring the time of-the hoisting a d bringing out the dead.

It is impossible to to—eenvey—an-y—eorreet—idea—of-- the . dreariness of, the nightscene, broken by the sobbings and meanings of these distressed widows and . orphans ; the :ivhole sufficient to appal the senses and chill the blood. Many of the distressed women, acknowledging and realizing to its full extent the awful situation of their husbands and ( ..- Ons, were sitting and walking in front of their houses all night long, uttering low, plaintive, and, pitiful sounds. It was alrnost impossi• ble to get their attention,eyen fp,t;;one, , moth'eVrici -24,croV to W [ VrettMll - irope for theater . things, to come , out of the un certainty. .

These people need immediate help Daring the day, while the bodies were. being taken oat; the expressions of countenance of these poor creatures in waiting Along the. line were awful. As one body after another was taken out and uncovered for recognition, the pent up 'agony - iviatild seem to burst forth anew in the most distressing man ner. :When it was announced that the. body of Mr. Evans was found, with a son embraced in his arms, the anguish Of that wife 'and mother was. most af flicting, as she ran up the road distract ed with grief. Other anxious faces are here—there are wives looking for busbandS and sons, mothers looking for dead boys, and sisters looking for fathers and brothers. In passing•one house cue poor frantic woman was groaning under the burden of a lost husband and sons, and uttering the pitiful cry of'" who will care for my poor children now ?" That beseech ing, heart rending petition is often . heard upon every hand. " Oh, God 1 he merciful !" " Have pity l" It is suf ficient to chill the blood in the veins to behold such scenes and bear such cries One woman was seen standing with a little one , in her arms and three or four tugging away at her skirts, lisping " Papa," " Papa ; " she in the depths of her despair seemed intently gazing with upturned countenance upon some bright object - of a cherished faith. There were no tears at Avon dale yesterday—the depths of agony were to great for such an expression, for the, wild and impassioned grief seems as if it would rend the very soul and distract the mind. it cannot run away in tears The hardest heart Most be mrived to offer substantial pity to these poor unf irtunates.

BEAUTIFUL BELLS A very interesting account of the Bells of Moscow is . given by a corre spondentat that place. He says : At the foot of Ivan Tower, in 'the Kremlin of Moscow-, j suppo - rted by t pedestal of stone, is the largest bell that ever_3vas in the_wortd. A piece is toi v oken out'ot its side and the frd-gt mend it 3 lying"near. The -breadth - of the bell is so great—it Is twenty - feet across—ghat the - cavity mrderneathltas been used as a chapel, where as many people'can stand as in a circle sixty feet around. In Russia the bell is an instrument of music for the worship of God as truly and really as the organ, in r any other country. This, fact is mentioned in the ac counts we have of the wonderful, enor mous and almOst incredibly heavy bells that havi3 been cast in Moscow, butif is the key to what it would - otherwise be difficult to explain. It appetirs to be bound to cast bells so largo as to be next lo impossible for convenient use, in _danger. alwa s of falling and dragging others to ruin in- their fall But when the bells is the means- of communication with the Infinite, and the worship of a people and an empire finds expression in the majestic tones of a bell, it should•have a tongue which requires twenty-four men -to move, and whose music sends. .a thrill of praise into every house in the city, and float away beyond the river into the plains afar. Moscow is the holy city of the Greek church. • Pilgrinis come hither fem. thousandss,..ot.miles off, on foot, and sometimes without shoes.. .I.have seen them, with staves iu their hands, and travel worn 'feet wound up-in - cloths. Wending their way to the sacred hills. And Ixhon they draw nigh- unto the city, and on the evening air the music of these holy bells is borne to their ears, they fall—upon - their faces, prostrate, .and woiship God, if they could go no further, they would be,content to die there, for they had heard the bells of Moscow,,and oti their majestic tones their souls have ,been taken up to heiiveill This is the sentiment of the ',su_perstitious peasant, and it is a beau tiful lOdeed: but all tho 'more Oelicate and exalted.. As long as five hundred years ago, this casting of tells was an art in Rus sia. ,It is one of the fine nits nos;', , . Perhaps: our great bell founders, the Meneelys, will not admit that the found ere there have any more skill in their manufacture than we have, and I am' not sure that their bells have atiy tones more exquisite than ours 'would have if we would put as much silVer and gold into our bell metals as they do But as long as the precious metals are. at their present premium, little or none of them will find, its way into our church bells. We have not the mis-* taken 'idea of. the RusSians as to the use of a bell. We use the bell to call the people: to the 'house of worship. They use the bell for worship. Our bells speak to' us. Their hells praise God. They cast their silver and their gold into the molten mass, and it be comes an offering, as on an altar to Film who is wors,,ipped with every silvery note and - golden tone of the holy bell This one great bell is the grov;ith of centuries. In 1568 it was cast, and weighed only 86,000 pounds. It fell in a fire, was recast in 1654,1mvi0g increased to tae astonishing - weight of 228,000 pounds. This was too vast a weight to be taken up to the tower, and it ivas sustained by a frame at the foot of it. In 1700 it fell into another fire, and was broken into frag. merits, which lay there on the groußd about thirty years. It was recastfili 1739, and four years afterward a piece was knocked out of the side of it, and it has been here on the ground more than half a century. It, weighs 444,000 pounds ! In the thickest part it is two feet through. It has relief pictures on it of the Emperor and Em press, 'of the Saviour and the Virgin .Mary, and the Evangelists. Ascending the Ivan Tower, we find on thiee successive stories bells to the number of thirty four. Some of these are of a size to fill one with astonish ment, had he not seen ole giant below. The largest is on the rtrst story above the chapel, and weighs more than sixty tons. It swing's freely and easily. , I smote it with the palm of my hand, supposing that such a blow could not produce the slightest vibration in sueli a mighty mans of iron, but it rung out as clear and startling as if a spirit within had responded to my knock without Two bells are of solid silver, and their tones arty exquisitely soft, liquid.and pure It was exciting to go from ono to another, and strike them with their tongues or with your hand, and catch the variety'and . richness of their several melridies. 1 :-.1'he..ehapel-below..ia_dedicated_te.the, patron saint of all ladies about to .be married, and it niay be readily believed 'that the bell that gives .expression to their prayer will have, at least to their ears,,4he sweetest tones of all the bells in Moscow.

Whenever a prisoner wished to leave the lines to get a drink: at the spring, a Cotifederate soldier went with him. A,. rebel . named Billings went with. Cathertoh to the _spring,- and Catbertou bargained with him to, let him get away, and be *ould , pay him. The arrangement was, that the Confederate was to let Catherton run, and fire his gun in another direction,iind pretend to pursue. If klatherton got away, lie was to Send Bigings $lOO by his brother, who was a prisoner in the Federal bands,. and would doubtless soon be exchanged. The plait worked. Catherton ran, Billings fired his gun and shouted, but it did . not avail any thing, of cdurse. Catherton got back to St. Louis, found Billings', brother,. and sent him the $lOO as he agreed.

LIFE ON THE MIS6ISSIPPL—AI - the flush times have passed away •on the Mississippi, they still . have some queer and sometimes rough customers on the - river boats. On a recent-trip of the Highflyer, crowded with passengers, the clerk had allotted the last stitte-room, and was just about to leave his Office, when he was aston ished by the appearance of atall Mis ,2 •sourian, who exclaimed, "1 sly, you stranger, I want one of them cham bers"— " Sorry;sir," said the official, blandly, " but onr state rooms are all taken." " The d-1 they are," res ponded Missouri, " I've paid my bed, an' I want one of them .chambers." "Allow me to see your ticket," -said the still polite clerk. Putting his big hand to . the back of his neck, the pas senger pulled out a ten inch ',bowie knife, and, driving it quivering into the counter, said : "I'm from Pike county ; young fellar, thar . my ticket. I want one of them cham bers !" Before the steel hod ceased to vibrate, the prompt cletk quietly ~ thrust a loaded and capped six 'shooter under Pike's nose, and coolly answered, " I've only got six chambers, and you see they are.ail fell" The Missourian edged out of "range;" and, putting up his " toothpick," ejaculated, : "A full - hand ie good, by !" and strode off to seek such quirters as )1e could find. LOOKING Yeses AHEAD. — .I.7 A. writer in AppLton's Journal, under the head of By 1900 What ?" nn dertakeirte forecast the future social and industrial condition of the United ',wee : He predicts (1) that there will be no great war dormg the next thirty years; (2) that there will be an, enormous increase of the wealth of - the country; (3) that this' wealth, will be far more unequally distributed than it is now—that the ri.th will become very much richer,' while the numbers of ,the wage receiving clasd will he largely added to. In other words, instead a population mainly composed of the' • middle class, as-is the case now,, we shall have a very rich class and.a great laboring though not a poor class; in short, that the middle class, so 01.11 ed, will be greatly reduced in number com pared. with the rest'of the population. , The writer believes that the close of the century will witness. great indus trial disturbances, unless, the very rich recognize their social duties towards the rest of the community. All this may'tnrn nut to be very good guess ing; but then, again, it may not. On a recent trip of one of the Illi nois riverpaekets, a light draught one, as there were only two feet of water in the channel, the passengers were startled by the cry of " Man over board !" The steamer was stopped, and preparations were made to , save hiin, when he was heard exclaiming : "Go ahead with your darned Old-steam- , boat ! I'll walk, behind you !"• Two Irishmen stopped at the Island House, Toledo, lit their gas, hnd, with windows open, sat down to enjoy. a chlt. The hungriest of Toledo mos quitoes soon flocked in and drove them desperate. The clerk, who was sum moned to devise some defence against them, told them to close the windows and put out the gas. They acted On' the suggestion, and placed themselves between the sheets. Just as they be gan to dose, a lightning bug, which had strayed into the room, caught the, eye of one of the travelers.
