Twenty years or more ago we lived in Fourteenth street, New York, in an old fashioned house which has since been torn down to make way for shops. During the greater part of the summer I waslel't 1 alone in the house with the exception of j 011 c servant, the rest of the family going 1 into the country. My room was on the ' second floor back, but when the rest of the family left I took possession of the ' whole floor, although still using ray own i room at night. One summer night about the first of 1 August 1 sat reading uutil quite 1 ate and went to bed about midnight. I could not have slept long when 1 was awakened j by a loud, piercing scream—another and j another followed in quick succession. They seemed to come from outside of the house, and I sprang to the window to look and listen. The screams had ; stopped, but I heard doors slamming i and muffled voices talking hurriedly. 1 was certain the screams came from out- j side, aud went to the front windows to see if there was anything in the street ; that would offer an explanation of the * extraordinary occurrence that must have 1 caused them. As 1 reached the window j the street door of the next house west i of ours closed with a loud noise, and 1 saw two men hurry down the steps and j cross the street, down which they quick ly disappeared. Their departure was followed by per fect quiet and silence. Satisfied that the screams were probably the result of some drunken fight, I went to bed again with out further anxiety on the subject, soon fell asleep, and by the next raorniughad ' forgotten the whole affair. In the afternoon of that day I arrived j at the house from down town about five : o'clock, and as I sat reading by the win- 1 dow in my room, Kate, the servant, came in and said: "Thereis a gentleman down stairs to see you, sir." T went down and found in the hall an ) odd-looking man with a dark beard. Although evidently a young man, he had | a worn, old look in his face, lie bowed j and said: "I hardly know, Mr. Barton, how to ask the very great favor I want you to grant. 1 am a Southerner, and at the South wc arc always ready to help strangers among us, but 1 know that here in the North you are more careful' 111 your ways of doing things for people, i ami do not welcome strangers quite so quickly as we do. Now, what I am go ing to ask you to do would be done j willingly by any Southern gentleman, 1 but I don't know exactly whether you will look at it the same." The man puzzled me. As he stopped j talking and looked up at me it suddenly occurred to me that lie had not told me ! his name, nor liow he came to know mine. Before 1 could ask him these questions he said: "But all this time 1 have not told you uiy name, which, I ' dare say, you arc wondering at. It is 1 Pierson. lam from Savannah." lie paused and then I said: "To whom , am I indebted for your knowledge of mc, Mr. Pierson?" He smiled and said: "To no one in ! particular, Mr. Barton, but I have heard j a great deal about you from different people, and I thought if there was any ' one in the neighborhood who would hclu , me you were the man." I thanked him for his implied compli- ' ment, and then said: "You have not I told me what it is you wish me to do. I But come into the parlor, sit down, and 1 let me hear all you have to say." We went in and sat down. Then lie turned to me and said: "Mr. Barton, did ! you hear auy strange noises last night?" I I started. The incident of the night j before, which 1 had forgotten, came j back to me with increased significance. There evidently was a mystery. He continued: "I think the whole neighborhood must have been aroused by Mrs. Lamotte's screams. She was so J overcome by the dreadful sight of her ! husband's body, and not having been 1 prepared " At this point I was so much astonished 1 that I exclaimed: "Her husband's! body I What do you mean."" The man stared at me amazed and 1 said: 44 Is it possible you have not seen j un account ol the dreadful accident last evening on the steamboat?" I then remembered having seen an ne ! count of an explosion which took place on a steamboat while lying at her dock the evening before, and that, one poor niun was found crushed almost beyond ' recognition in the wreck of his state ! room. The victim, so Mr. Pierson in-! fermcd mc was his friend, a Mi. i Lamottc, of Mobile, who had taken the house next door, and was living the e with his wife and his wife's sister, a Miss : Cooper, at the rime he met his dreadful | fate. Lamotte had started the evening I before for Boston. The boat on which ! he was going had hurst a steainpipe just I as it was about to start, and Lamotte, j who was in his state-room at the time, ■ was killed instantly by the explosion, which had blown in the partition of his j room. All this my visitor explained to me \ with much detail, and also his unavail ing search for a coroner before removing ' the body to the house. The messages j lie sent to the house to prepare tho he reaved woman there for news of the ' disaster had never reached her. When he arrived at the house with his dreadful : burden, the noise the men made in going 1 up the steps awakened both Mrs. Liv motto and her sister. The latter came down stairs to let them in, and Mrs. Lamotte, who was looking down into the hall, when she aw them and realized what brought them there, had given lit- * tern nee to the piercing shrieks 1 had heard. I told Pierson I had heard them and could not account for them at the time. " Well," he continued, "that was not all. Mrs. Lamotte went off' into one fainting tit after another, and altogether it was the most dreadful night 1 ever spent in my life. To-day 1 have been making what arrangements 1 could to carry out Mrs. Lamotte's wishes as to the funeral. She wants to have him taken out to Patcrson, N. J., for burial, some of her family having u burial lot in that place. I have to go out to-night to make arrangements for it, as the funeral is to take place to morrow. 1 did not have a chance to go out to-day. I shall leave on the nine o'clock train this even , ing, and return on the very earliest train in the morning, probably soon after daylight. Of course during my j absence the ladies next door would be ' alone, excepting for the two negro women-servants. Now, what I want to know is, will you go in there when I leave and stay until 1 come back?" The man appeared grieved and per turbed by all he had gone through, and although I did not fancy his ap pearance nor manner, I was very much interested and distressed by what lie had told me, and felt that I would like to help him, to say nothing of those two poor, lonely women. When I agreed to remain with them during his absence Piersou's face beamed with gratitude, and he thanked me again and again. After he had gone I went to dinner, and there thoughtover the strange story | I had heard, and with which I had be- I come in a sort of away identified. I must confess I half regretted having consented to the arrangement for re maining in the house during Piersou's absence, but at the same time re proached myself for the feeling. About a quarter to eight Pierson re -1 i turned, mid I immediately went with j | him to the house next door. On j ( the way over there he suddenly in- I formed me of what I had suspected be- j I fore, viz., that he was engaged to be , ! married to Miss Cooper. One of the colored servants let us in, and we j walked into the middle room on the first floor, where Pierson left me, saying that lie would go up stairs and ask Miss Cooper to come down. In a few 1110- j meats he returned with her, and I was greatly surprised ami pleased with her appearance. She was very fair, with j reddish-gold hair, and beautiful eyes of j a most peculiar color. Pierson introduced us. Smiling j sweetly, she said: "How very kind, in- j deed, of you, Mr. Barton, to take pity I 011 us in our trouble and come over in ' this way to help us. I assure you no j one can appreciate, until they have ex perienced it, what it is for two women to be left alone at a time like this." Her manner and appearance were both charming, and her smile fascinating. : But a glance about me rather chilled my admiration. The room we were sitting in was the middle room on the first floor, j and the house was evidently three rooms ; deep. There were folding doors, which were closed, opening into a room in the rear—probably the dining-room—and there were also folding-doors leading into the front room. These last were not closed, but stood slightly open, suffici j cntly so as to reveal a dark, silent room within. I think .Miss Cooper noticed my wan- ' dering glances, for she presently said, ; with a rather odd smile: "I am sorry, Mr. Barton, that we cannot put you into a more cheerful room, but we thought this the most comfortable under the circum- > stances. The dining-room in the back ' is small and very dark. The front room i is, of course—" she hesitated, but pros- j ently resumed: "The poor, mutilated fellow was carried there, and the coro ner's inquest was held there, too. We have left him there after making all the necessary arrangements. My sister ind I," continued the young lady, "are on j the lloor above. Sister is in such a stale of nervousness that the least sound throws her into hysterics, so I am obliged ' to stay on that floor alone with her, and only allow the servants to pass up and , down stairs as noiselessly as possible." ; At this point Pierson broke in with a brusque remark that lie wished to say a , few words to me before he went away, and, excusing herself to me, the lady left j the room. When she was gone Pierson j said, with a short laugh: 44 1 dare say, Mr. Barton, that Clara's j apparent coolness over poor Lamotte's ! death seems a little strange to you, but the fact is, Lamottc was a queer, discon- J tented sort of fellow, and 1 don't think I his wife had any too pleasant a life with him, and to Clara his conduct was simply ! unbearable at times. She only put up : up with him for her sister's sake." 1 felt somewhat displeased with this ; disclosure, although I could not tell ex- j actly why. Pierson talked a little further in the j same strain until Miss Cooper returned, 1 followed by a colored woman carrying a 1 tray, with the contents of which the young lady brewed what she culled 44 an ; old-fashioned Mobile punch"—cooling, j soothing, and iuvigoratiug. We refreshed ourselves, and then Pier- i sou bade me good-bye, thanking me over and over again for helping him out of his difViculties, and saying he would rc ; turn at the earliest possible moment in the morning. Miss Cooper followed him to the door. When she returned we fell j into a desultory sort of conveasation, I during which I found her even more j fascinating than she had seemed at first. I Suddenly rising, she said: 4 T must j leave you alone now, Mr Barton, and go to my sister, I leave the punch for you to finish, and you will find some books on the table in the corner, and some cigars; make yourself as comfortable as you can." I linished the punch, took up one of t he books from the table, and lighting a | cigar, began to road. But the punch must have been stronger than I thought. A feeling of contented languor begun to steal over mc, and I was conscious of falling into a doze, when, close beside me, I heard a low, deep groan. I was aroused in a moment, and looked about me, startled. The room was bright with the lump-light, and 1 was alone. For a few moments I sat perfectly still and reasoned with myself as to the strange sound, striving to find an ex planation of it. I certainly had heard it, lor 1 was not sound asleep when it aroused me. I came to the conclusion that I had been startled by that prelim inary snore which so often awakens one from what has promised to be a sound sleep. Having thus decided the matter to my satisfaction, I again settled myself comfortably in the easy chair, and pres ently resumed my doze. I must this time have really slept, if only for ft mo ment, but I nevertheless found myself suddenly wide awake with the echo of another of those dreadful groatis. And soon I became conscious of another strange sound faintly echoing in the room, a sound no less strange though not so startling as the other, it j was u sound of water dripping slowly, ' drop by drop, with a faint, hollow , echo. Drip dripdrip. I looked quickly out of the window opening into the yard ut the side of the dining-room, half expecting to see that a sudden shower ha I set the pipes and • .ves dropping; it was bright starlight without a cloud. Standing there I still heard thai ghostly chilling drip of water, drip -drip-drip. Walkiug quickly back to the centre of the room I listened there, and still heard it, regular as the pendu lum of a clock, drip—-drip—drip. And here a new feeling fell upon me; for thai faint, yet pcnetiating sound came from between the doors leading into the front room, I stood looking at that open space with mingled feelings of curiosity and astonishment, for I began to under stand that sound. I walked to the doors and rolled them further open. The heavy, potent, sickly air struck me in the face and floated with a lan guid power into the brightly lighted room where I stood. It seemed to dim the lights and my senses at the same time; but still 1 heard the dripping of the water, drip-drip-drip. My eyes, becoming accustomed to the gloom into which I was looking, and aided by a streak of light coming in at one of the front windows from a street lamp, dis tinguished in the centre of the room a long, square, box-like arrangement. It took up the better part of the room, seeming to fill it almost, and as I stood looking at it I heard the water move distinctly, dripping slowly into some thing placed beneath. I)rip-drip-drip. With a shudder I advanced slowly in to the room for a short distance and stood looking at that sad spectucle. Its sombre aides glistened with moisture, and a large knob or handle on the top enabled one, no doubt, to uncover its ghastly contents. I had no desire to do this, and was about to retrace my steps, when from the interior of that very casket I heard a strange sound—some thing between a sigh and a groan. For one moment I stood irresolute— -1 hesitating whether to dash at the thing j and throw it open, or (shall I confess it?) jto rush from the house. The latter feel -1 ing overpowered the former, and in a ' second I was back in the lighted room, and, picking up my hat and stick, had started for the door, when I saw a dim form gliding down the staircase toward , me. Watching it with mingled curiosity and alarm as it approached me, I was infinitely relieved to recognize it as Miss Cooper, to whom the darkness and the general strangeness of everything in that house lent au air of mystery and terror; but she came toward me, smiling. Before I could speak, she said : "Sister is resting quietly, and so I stole down for a moment to see " Miss Cooper's voice suddenly died away, and her eyes gazed horror-stricken into mine, for at this moment the sound of a low groan fell upon our ears. Faint and hollow it sounded, as if suppressed, j against the will of the sufferer. With a , wild expression in their depths, my companion's eyes first sought the door leading iuio the front room, then turned to my face with a puzzled look. God knows what horrible thoughts now chased each other through my brain; ( but, reaching forward and seizing Miss Cooper's hand, L said: "Will you go j with me into that room?" She regarded me again with a strange glance, her face was pale and her lips set closely together; but with a firm voice j she answered: "I will." Without another word and still hold : ing her hand in mine, 1 pushed the door open aud entered the front room. I felt j my fair companion's hand trembling, but I she went forward with an unhesitating step, until we stood beside that dark, box-liko affair in the centre of the room, j Silently we stood there gazing upon it. I was now desperate and determined to know the worst. Dropping Miss Cooper's hand I took hold of the handle of the box and tried to turn it. It moved stillly and slowly around, showing that in some way it fastened on the top. I then grasped it with both hands and, throw ing all the strength I could command into the effort, endeavored to raise the top of the box. It slowly yielded to the pressure, and I had raised it about an inch or two, when I heard again that awful groan. It was followed by a suppressed shriek from my companion, who clutched at my arm convulsively, and that loosening my hold of the handle, the top of the box fell back into place with aloud bang. Miss Cooper suddenly released my arm, and I saw her clinging to the slid ing-doors which opened into the room, her horrified gaze fixed first upon me and then upon the dark box. But Ino longer wished to open that; what I j sought was not there, for that last groan I had sounded from another part of the | loom. One of the long front windows was partly raised. The light from the street flickered in through the opening, casting fantastic shadows in that corner of the room, and it was from there the groan came, I was suie. Even as I stepped back and tried to peer into the black shadows lurking there, it sounded again with terrible distinctness, loud, I prolonged, and agonized. With an exclamation of amazement, I sprang forward and threw up the win dow as far as it could go, and as 1 did so a voice close at hand said : 44 Ah, get up out of that; yer can't be slecpiu' there, ' and an answer came, in husky tones; 44 1 | ain't got strength tor move; I've got the asthmer awful had." Then followed ono of those terrible groans, from the samo source. ! On the top step, just outside of the 1 door, stood a policeman, the bright but tons of his uniform shining in the light of the lamp. He was reaching over and prodding with his night-stick a forlorn looking bundle of humanity lying stretched out on the balcony of the house | in which I was standing. | The railing of the balcony being low, the poor asthmatic tiamp had probably climcd over it early in the night, and thinking, no doubt, that the house was unoccupied, had stretched himself out to rest his sorrows and his pains. A vine which trailed along the balcony hid him from the street, and possibly his ghostly groans alone betrayed him to the policeman. "Officer," I said, "don't hurt him; ho seems in pain"—for the prodding had recommenced. "Oh, sir,"said the blue coat, 4 'he's only shamming. I know the likes of him." However, they settled their differences of opinion by the asth matic consenting to move on, upon con dition that the prodding should cease. After their departure I turned to look for my fair companion of a few moments before—she had flown! Pierson returned in tho early morning, and the funeral took place in tho after noon of that day. But there was one ceremony which never took place; and that was Pierson's marriage to Miss Cooper. She became Mrs. Barton the following autumn. [Frank Leslie's Illustrated. Would Encircle the Earth.

Two distinct kinds of fishery operations are, or until recent years have been, con ducted from St. John's and from St. Pierre. One is the bank fishery, the other the shore fishery. Their names describe their character. The Newfoundland banks arc submar ine plateaus distant less than a hundred miles from the island. The largest of them, the Grand Bauk, an immense rocky elevation, extends over nine degrees of latitude and live of longitude. The depth of the water about it is from 50 to JOO feet. Here the lordliest of the lordly cod reside, and here the fishing Heets of the United States, Newfound land, France, ami Canada ply their peril ous trade. At the present day the bank fishery alone can be depended on. Form erly the waters all along the American coast from Massachusetts to Labrador wero prolific of cod and herring. But reckless and wasteful methods of fishing —the seine, the cod net, the cod trap, and the bultow—have gradually de pleted the shore fisheries until they now supply but a precarious iiviug to tho3e who still engage in them. They are not yet wholly abandoned except by the French and Americans. The fishermen of these nations, being compelled to go a longdistance to find a fishing-ground, whether on the banks or along the coasts, and therefore to fit out for a deep-sea voyage anyhow, naturally go where the fish arc best and most plentiful. But those Canadians and Newfoundlanders who live along the harbors and coasts still frequented by the fish not unusually make good catches. They have the ad vantage of not being required to furnish themselves with large vessels. A stunch skiff is all they need, so that,although at best their fisheries are poor and ineom parable with those they once enjoyed, there is still a measure of profit in the business. There is an essential difTercncc bet ween the craft employed on the banks and those used by the shore fishermen. A "banker" of the American type is by far the stanchest and swiftest of this entire fishing tleet. A spectacle more picturesque than is presented by this queenly creature, with her long low black hull and her vast reaches of snowy wing, standing in waters here blue in the shadow of the rocky cliff, there iri descent in the sunlight, and yonder, where the lleccy clouds are passing, empurpled, soft, and rich, would be hard indeed to find. Not the seas alone, with their boisterous winds and their conflicting currents, but the laud, bold, rocky, often weird, and always majestic, seems to be the uatural home of a free, brave-hearted people. The cliffs that rise sharply from the sea on cither side of the harbor channel at St. John's arc examples of the coast. Everywhere tlic<c monster rocks arc found standing over against each other with grim, hard fronts, like giants in a moment's rest from battle. The banking fleet seem to be their fit companions. They suggest the same dauntless spirit, the same in herent power. All tilings that float look feeble on the brow of a dashing sea, but if there is a craft that literally makes sport of the waves—not gentle carressing waves, but mighty billows that tear along in nervous ferocity—it is one of these stiff, saucy bankers. Very different is the fleet that may any time be seen in the shelter of Petty Harbor. As an illustration of life in an outport, every scene iu Petty Harbor is typical. The village is far enough from St. John's to po-sess an independent fleet of its own, and near enough to a profitable shore fishery to insure employ ment and profit to all its people. The boats, mostly sloop-riggea, light but well built, at nightfall fill the harbor, moored close by the flakes on which the fish are drying. Before daybreak the bows are turned seaward, and, like horses in a steeple chase, off they dash through the inlet, a dozen abreast, often with no more than the room of a salted herring from rail to rail between them. —[Harper's Weekly. The Use of Shawls. Many might be disposed to ask what American wears a shawl, just as long ago the scornful question was raised, "Who reads an American book?" Both these questions, however, simply reveal iguorancc, as there is a steady and in creasing demand for these articles of wearing apparel, though for ordinary purposes they may be said to be wholly out of fashion. Foi the usual purposes of a costume, , certainly for ladies who wish to conform lo the reigning styles, the shawl lias few attractions. And still, as a matter of f fact, almost every woman has one or more shawls. The superficial critic over looks the numberless purposes to lie served by one of these articles, quite apart from its use as au item iu a fash ion able costume. Take the function which they so often have ot the rug. Here alone is a sphere of usefulness which makes tlicra almost necessary in every home. They are, moreover, an indispensable adjunct for the traveler, cither by land or sea. They are a very handy thing to have in the house where there are babies. For picnic purposes the shawl is of most practical value, and nothing has ever boon invented that is quite such a convenient article to throw over the head and shoulders when out upon a neigh borhood errand. Apart from these uses, incidental, in deed, but universal, there is a large J trade, particularly among American citi zens of foreign extraction and through out the Northwest, in shawls as an ordi j nary article of dress. It is very difficult to keep in mind all the elements in our heterogeneous population. The broadest minded arc apt to forget that the demands of certain classes of the population in states liko Wisconsin or the Dukotns may be altogether differ ent from that to which the tradesman caters In Eastern centres. Very often an immense trade is quietly [ carried on iu fabrics and patterns which , would cause a buyer iu these latitudes to bo regarded as a candidate for the lunatic asylum. As tho proverb says, it takes all kinds of people to make the •vorld, and many of these people are still attached to their comfortable and graceful shawl, and wear it habitually. 1 —[Dry Goods Economist.
