Grey streaks crept along the east,
and quivered, like a faded fringe bor
dering the black canopy. Still he sat
tapping, but no answer came. He
waited, listened .vainly,, no echo, no

the cloudy morning glimmered at his
window. Then he threw himself on
his bed and fell into restless slum

A damp, . thick fog enveloped the
houses in . its slimy embrace. At
nightfall its reeking folds gathered
themselves from the ground, and a
noiseless drizzle came suddenly down.
Monk had not stirred from his room
all day. The feverish sleep into which
he had fallen fled’ from, him before
noon, and now ho stood at his window
looking out into the blackness. A
clammy air blew against his face.: He
stretched out his hand, and drew it

rubbed it violently against his clothes,

At last came one of a noble canoe,
By the city coanted the wealthiest dame,
And the pearls that o’er her neckwerestrnng,
She proudly there to the beggar flung.
Then followed a maiden young and lair.
Adorned with dnstexs of golden hair;
But her dress was thin, and scanty, and
■worn.
Not even the bagger's seemed more forlorn.
With a tearful look and a pitying sigh.
She whispered soft, “No jewels have I,
But I give you my, prayers, good friend,’’
said she,
“And sure I know God listens to me.”
On the poor white' hand, so shrunken and
small,
The blind woman-felt a tear-drop fall.
Then kissed it and said to the weeping
girt,
“ It is you who have given fl»e purest
peari.”
saw nqthing beyond the hills and rocks
that hemmed in their village; knew
nothing of the tumults outside. An
untaught, sturdy, race of men, they
differed little from one another. Every
day .when the sun rose, they went
forth to toil, and every night, when
the great furnace over the creek glim
mered red, they lay down to sleep.—
But ignorance and superstition filled
their hearts, and anger and bate, and
jealousy, were rife among them as in
the crowded cities.
Another day passed, and the night
which followed it was dark and cloudy.
Near midnight,’ the great bell signalled
for the last run of iron. Occasionally
blue flames leaped up from the furnace,
lurid as the fiery tongues of a volcano.
The long narrow roof brooded over
the sand-bed like the black wings of
some monster bird hovering in the air.
Under its shadow groops of men were
but wavering, dusky figures. Sudden
ly as an electric flash, a dazzling yellow
glare broke out, and a fierce, scorch
ing, withering blast swept from’ an
opening that seemed the mouth of
hell itself. Slowly out of the burning
cavern a hissing stream of molten iron
came creeping- down. It crawled, and
turned and crawled, rib after rib, until
it lay like some huge skeleton stretch
ed upon the ground. A thin vapor
floated up in the sulphnrous air and
quivered with reflected splendor. . The
scfirlet-shirted men looked weird in
the unearthly brightness. The yellow
glow faded to red that deepened to a
bipod-colored spot in the night. The
bell rang to discharge the hands, and
squads of men broke up, scattering" in
the dark.
Monk went to his garret-room, hesi
tated a moment at the door, then
passed in and. shut it so violently-that
the.florir shook. He- struck a match.
In the brimstone light a horrible de-
J5EAIH WATCH.
“Didn’t you hear it?”
“When?”
“Just now.”
. “No.”
m “They say it foretells death. Hush!”
The two men sat motionless. Not a
sound broke the silence, not even a
crack of the old boards in the floor, or
a sigh of wind, or a flapping shut
ter.
“They say it foretells death. Iheard
it last night and the night before.—
What’s that?”
“Nothing. It’s stiller than a grave
yard. ”
“I heal’d it last night and the night
before about this time, near one.—
’Tain’t a very pleasant sound, and this
old garret’s dismal enough-any way.”
“Monk, you’re afeard. Its nothing.
Don’t waste-no more time. I’m dead-
tired and* sleepy. You wouldn’t have
been in this old hole now if it hadn’t
been for Peters. ” .
“No, if it hadn’t been for Peters,
the strike, like enough/ would have
took. Biit he won’t stand in nobody’s
wav again. ”
While TMonk spoke, he drew out a
sharp, slender knife, and run his fin
ger along the blade.
“I tell you, Shiflet, we must do it
the night after this blast’s done, and
the men in the shed say the coal will
run out on* the Gth, that’s to-morrow.
Yi 7 hen Peters is. fixed, the manager
will have to. give in or quit runnin’ the
furnace.”
Both men sat with their arms -lean
ing on the table, and the flickering
light of the. tallow candle between
them showed two faces, rough, be-
grimmed by smoke and soot, and dis
figured by eyil passions, that grew
fiercer as they calmly plotted against
the life of a fellow-being.
“We’ll meet at one, where the roads
cross. It’ll be quiet, then, and Peters’
house is alone;”
“I’ll be all right,” said Shiflet, with
a grin that rendered his brut-like
countenance doubly repulsive; “I’m
