BURIED AT MINER’S LUCK
BYCLARAiSTALniNO BROWN.
Thereit is—the mound where lies the
sweetest of her sex. The first woman
butted in Miner's Luck? Yes. ’Tis a
small circumstance to a stranger, but a
tragic one to those who knew the occu
pant of thnt bumble grave. It wus two
years ago that I first saw her. but the
memory of the pure face haunts me still,
as it will haunt me io my dying day.
’‘Beautiful faces are those that wear—
It matters little If dark or fair—
Whole-souled honesty printed there."
And her face, amongst the motley set
which crowded the old stage coach,
gleamed like milk-white pearl amid a
grrup of rough cobble-stones, witli the
dark soil <>f the wayside clinging to them.
Sl.o was like a fair, fragile lily among
those burly miners and ruthless gamblers,
yet she showed no fear or thought but
she was as safe as in the quiet, neat lit
tle home she had k-ft—left for love's
sake, to go where God was forgotten,
and dreariness lay on eveiy hand. And
she was safe. Those were unscrupulous
men, but they could not harm one who
bore God's mark upon her brow. Coarse
in their jests, betraying in look and act
their fallen estate, they yet vied with
each other in awkward attempts to make
their delicate fellow passenger comforta
ble, and their voices sank into softened
cadence as they respectfully addiessed
her from time to time in the tedious ride
over (he dusty prairie and up the rugged
hills, beyond which lay Miner's Luck.
She was worn and weary with the long
journey from a distant state, but she was
happy. Every mile left behind by the
lumbering coach increased her joy, and
brightened the eager sparkle that fatigue
could not banish from her eyes. For she
was going to meet her husband, whom
she had not seen for a whole year—a
year of watching and waiting, of loneli
ness and longing—and ho did not expect
her. She was going to give him a deli
cious surprise. Over and over again she
pictured the meeting to herself —his
blank astonishment at sight of her, then
the flash ffl'joy that would irradiate his
countenance, and the fervent embrace ns
he would clasp the unlooked fur treasure
to his heart—tho treasure which wa>
come to share his lot, for weal or woe,
and brighten the dull routine ofa miner’s
life. How happy he would he to know
(hat their separation was over at last,
and how joyous theyjwnuld take up a new
life together among tho gulches. She
would he so economical 1 almost anything
would do for a home at first, and she
would add to the income, rather than de
crease it.
She would have gone to James long
ere this, but money had been scans, and
Janies had written that rhe had bettor
wait unti: he could get a good start, and
save enough to send for her.
Ahl I.e did not know her little secret
which was enabling ler to fly to him
without hdringiog upon his scanty Riv
ings. He did Hot know tba- Uncle John
haJ culled to sec her on his way baok to
’ Au tialin, and had given her the passage
money, with his blessing, as he said good
by—yes, and enough besides to help con
siderably tn setting up housekeeping’
with careful management. Blessingson
■ waim-liearted Uncle John, who hud pro
vided her w;th so much happinasel She
had not heard from James very lately, but
she did not mind that now. It had been
weary waiting, but the poor boy had to
I work hard, and could not write often. In
, a few hours she would see him! She grew
, restless, her fingers interlaced, and her
I head turned from side to side, eagerly
i noting tho changes in tho landscape
which showed that they had entered a
mining region.
The glowing sun sank behind the west-
I ern hills, gray twilight crept on and lin
gered awhile, then darkness fell over the
lonely road. Lights were twinkling bore
and thereover tho hillsides a* they near
ed the camp, and it was nearly 9 o'clock
1 when, with a rattle and a flourish, tho
1 coach swept around the corner by the
post-office, and came to a stand-still be
-1 lore the shanty dignified by that name.
A throng of blue-shirted miners ami
prospectors crowded around the stage ns
the ri d-fiiced driver slung off the mail
bags, and the cramped and dusty passen
gers alighted, stretching their aching
limbs, and looking around Ibrthe nearest
place in which to moisten their parched
throats. "IVherebe you bound to?”
queried the driver at length, observing
that his lady passenger stood, hesitating,
with one foot upon the step, her eyes
anxiously searching the crowd before her,
and her lace alternately flushing and pal
ing beneath the curious stare to which
she was subjected. "I—l don't exact y
know,” she stammered, "if I could see
James Elden ” Once more her eyes
ran frout face to face along the sidewalk,
but the familiar one she loved so well
. was not there. "James Elden?” repeat
ed the driver, turning to inquire the
whereabouts of that personage; but he
, was saved the trouble, for one or two of
i th* bystanders, bearing the name, spoke
u;>, "Junies Eldon? He’s in the Grotto,"
, and another hurried away to seek "Jim,”
as lie was fumi'iarly called.
> "All right,” responded the driver,
i "better step cut, madam; he'll Ire here
in a minute. He's right in there,” indi
citing a long, low building adj lining the
. post-offioe. 1 bus informed, the woman
. advanced to the sidewalk, and looked in
. at the window of the Grotto.
She lookedjin at the window, and she
saw—fiist, a lone, wide bar with rows
s upon rows of dark bottles ranged on the
s shelves behind it, with two men in white
• vbiit-sleeves busily supplying the wants
i i of a boisterous crowd before it —next, a
r J long, bare room, with a fiddler sitting on
r I a barrel at the further end, and a soore
isf daccers circling, with more freedom
i than grace, to the strains of a waltz. The
light was dim at the further end, but,
just as she was wondering how it hap
pened that James was in such a place, a
c tup e swung into the foreground—a
couple with laughing flushed faces, the
head of the man bent to look into the face
of the woman. His head was bent, but
the weary traveler recognized it, and
started back as though stung by a ser
pent. "My God!” she breathed, "can
that be my James?” and she shrank
away.
She did not see the n essenger tap het
husband on the shoulder, or witness the
start and look of astonishment with which
he received the tidings that "a woman
outside wanted to sec him.”
But, when her husband strode to meet
her, she raised her head, and a great and
quenchless love illumined her pallid face.
She stepped impulsive y forward, het
hands outstretched, her lips quivering
with emotion. The man halted sudden
ly, and uttered an imprecation.
"What the devil! Here’s a go! What
kind ofa game do you call this, Lib?”
i '1 his was her greeting ! This was the
> end of her plotting!
! ‘‘Alas, for the high dreams come to naught
L Ere the autumn of life drew near.”
I Ami alas lor Lillian Elden!
- “Hearts have broken for harsh words spoken,
That sorrow ca.i ne’er set right ”
I Lillian began a new life—but how dis-
I ferent from that of which she Lad so
fondly dreamed! James Elden was in the
I toils of drink and an unprincipled woman,
but he could not icpudiate his lawful
; wile. He had purposed keeping her
i awuy from Miner’s Luck, that he might
i pursue uurebuked the course he had
I chosen; but, since she had come upon him
i in this precipitate fashion, he could not
t do less than find her a place in which to
i live. But he was not the fond, lighl
i hearted husband whom Lillian reins über
edof’vore. H? showed but too plainly
t that his affection for her had fled, and,
■ worse than that, he also made no secret
> of his infatuation for the bold, beautiful
i "Sue" of the Grotto. Lillian tried hard
i to extenuate his conduct, to remember
, thnt
4 “Wo are all weak when under temptation,
, All subjects to error and woe ”
, But the long-forgotten protest of kindly
, relatives against her marrying “ti o guy
, e.-t young fellow in town” came back
, knocking at the door of her memory.'
"And there falleth a rr.lst and a blinding ruin,
f And Uta 1* never the same again."
, Site bore up as best she could, doing
, bravely the duties of the day, and striv
i ing to win back to rectitude the mLguid
. ed man. Ami how that fellow withstood
the pathetic pleading of her sweet eyes,
, that looker! like tl ose of the wounded
] doe, pusses my comprehension. How
r lie could pieroe ami probe that gentle, as-
I fectionate heart, which grew more genthi
every day, for
I “Tim good are bettor made by 111,
Be odors crushed are sweater still.”

. Only the God above knows.
r| If she had been my wife
, She nided. And the weaker she grew
, the more shameless that wr. tch became.
He t innu.d her with having "tagged al
ter" Irm. ami having thrust herself and
her wretched health upon trim. lie d J
] dared hi* abhorrence of white cheeks
. and hollow eyes, and his admiration ol
, fine buxom women like "Saucy Sue."
, He admonished her costop pining around
( like an uncanny ghost, and make herself
,) agreeable. But
"When tho song's gone ont ot your Ute,’
That you thought would last to tho end—
r You can start no other song,
Not even a tremulous note
Will tatter forth on the empty air;
It dies in your aching throat.
1 L Ilian had not strength to overcome
her grief. The hot iron sank deep in her
breast, and seared the life-spring there.
When she became too weak Io leave her
bed, she would have lucked for many
' things but fur fiends —for she had friends
inthisrough camp—friends who rever
c ciiced her as an angel in their midst, and
l! despised the scoundrel who was killing
1 her. She know not whence they came,
nor did he, but many a delicacy found its
way to that poor cot.
i
, Ono calm, bright day. just as the sun
was easting its last level beams upon the
shanties and dusty streets of Miner’s
; Luck, she died —died with words of lovo
‘ for "James” upon her lips, with her
I glazing eyes fixed upon his face—died
, like a tired child going to sleep in its
r mother’s arms. She felt the Heavenly
arms about her. All through her suffer
ing she never doubted’ the wisdom and
love of Him who chasteneth whom He
loveth. And the spirit of the 11 oly
Ghost was upon her pure, dead face as
it lay iu the rude pine coffin. Strong
u en’s eyes filled with tears as they look
ed upon it. Such a funeral! Two by
two, the longest file of men that Miner’s
i Luck has ever seen, followed her to this
lonely spot, and here, where no waving
boughs or dainty blossoms adorn the
resting place of the dead, her mortal
. frame reposes. But her spirit is with its
‘ God.
, "Y>t shall she walk so fair, that we who knew
her
’ Would pale before the glory of her browa.”
And he! Well, her death shocked him
somewhat; but he soon got over it “Sau
gf'cySue” and the glass ere long again
claimed him fortheir own. He’s left the
> camp; but not before his temptress turn
, ed upon him, and well-nigh cut loose the
i cord ot life in a drunken trenxy. The
bullet ju-t missed his templa.
e A handsome grave-stone? Well, rath
s er. "Erected by a friend,” you see—a
s friend who could not let the mound re
s main unmarked, with naught to single it
s ftom the murderers and the murdered
i who lie on lither hand. True, she was

C. E. Dupler, aged thirty-four years, of

a chronic catarrh which he first discov
ered six years ago. In succession lie lost
his smell, taste and hearing. The disease
was so malignant that it not only attacked
the softer parts, but destroyed the bony
partition of the nose and seriously affected
the external parts. He could only hear a
watch ticking by holding it close to hi*
ear. lie suffered intense pain in the nose,
from which green, dry clots of offensive
odor fell. In this condition he presented
himself to Dr. Hartman several month*
ago. He can now hear a watch eight
inches from his right and six inches from
hi* left ear. His taste and smell are again
returning, and the external part of the
nose is quite well. Few more grateful
patients ever left a physician’s office than
Mr. Dupler. He said, " Why in the
