Tar. Mint, owner’s triumph.
The gray mints broke and the eastern
clouds blushed rod at (ho coming of the most
ardent lover in the universe. His fruitful
bride, earth, smiled her glad welcome up to
him, but gave place to settled peace and Jove
as the early hours went by. But it was the
saddest day of Philip Breton’s life, so terri¬
ble a thunderbolt had fallen upon him out of
the clear sky.
A woman's hand had struck him; and he
had looked to her for all the most precious
experiences of life. Humiliation might have
stirred in some hearts a blessed reaction to
relieve their aching consciousness of loss;
but the blow to his love and his hopes was so
much heavier than the hurt of his pride that
he did not think to be insulted, he was only
overwhelmed. There could be no escape for
him; lie had been so simple to give his wholo
heart to a woman before he had married
her; toteaeli every taste to incline toward
her; to suffer every little rill of tenderness
and worship in his being to pour into his
ideal of her. And all his plans touched her
somewhere; and all his thoughts, even such
as she could never understand, wound about
her personality as ho conceived of it at some
point in their processes. And now every
hour of his life must bo embittered by some
reminder of what he had hoped for and lost.
The balmy south wind that morning was liko
her breath; the soft murmur of the water in
the raceway below the mill was like her
voice; a blonde face looked down from one
of the windows of the weave room, there was
a liitting expression on it like Bertha. And
so it must be forever.
At the head of the counting room table sat
Mr. Breton, smiling and bland. Before him
were piled the heavy tomes containing the
records of his great factory; by his side stood
two clerks to assist iu handling and explain¬
ing them. Around the table, attentive and
eager, were gathered as many as could get
there, of shrewd, hard business men. A
dozen more of the same unmistakable species,
stood about the room and leaned against the
windows, quiet and observant, listening to
all that could throw any light on the matter
under discussion. It was the momentous
meeting of the prospective stockholders in the
corporation looming up in magnificent pro¬
portions before their fancies.
The paymaster and the attorney stood at
hand apt with suggestions; one of them had
the smile born of fond hopes of unlimited
fees; but the other an awkward fretted air at
the sudden change from one to so many
superiors. The mill owner was detailing to
this most interested audience the details of
the flourishing industry he desired to enlist
them in, and their eyes shone eagerly at tho
prospect of buying such stock at par. They
imagined their thousands doubling on their
hands in such an investment, doubling with¬
out an effort of theirs, doubling in spite of
their idleness, which added never one stroke
of theirs to the sum of tho muscular force
that furnishes the wealth of tho world.
But what could possess Breton to make this
change/ Was he rich enough? Absurd!
who ever was rich enough* Perhaps there
was some flaw somewhere, and this cunning
lawyer knew all about it. They must not let
themselves be fooled, so fjthoy listened with
still quickened attention, and waded suspic¬
iously into one after another of tho big
ledgers, for a few pages, to ferret out the
secret.
“The gentlemen may ask," Mr. Giddings,
the lawyer, had noticed tho puzzled expres¬
sion on t heir shrewd faces, “why Mr. Breton
makes tiiis offer. From tho amount of stock
we propose to issue, it ought to bo clear
enough,” and he laid ljis fat linger in the
palm of his left hand. “Ho proposes to keepi
just as big an interest here as ever, but tho
plan is to make these mills, as they shall lie
extended, gentlemen, as they shall be ex¬
tended, the most stupendous manufacturing
enterprise in the country. For that there
must be more capital, and you are invited to
join.” Philip hud but little to the unwel¬
to say
come visitors, whose carriages, of all varie¬
ties of elegance, lined the roadside without.
He moved about among them more liko a
stranger than the least ■ pretentious of them
all.
“Eilingsworlh, Mr. Ellingsworth,” called
Mr. Breton, “why, ho was with me only last
night. Can lie lie sick/"
Yes, sick with shame, and Philip thought
how quickly the flush of pride would fade
out of his father's pleased face, if ho knew—
know that his own sou, the heir of his mil¬
lions, had boon discarded at last by the girl
bo had already taken into a daughter's place
in his heart. And it was this satno man
Philip had defended aul argued for, that
had struck his deadliest blows at the mills,
and now thrust hi; knife into the very homo
of the rich man. It would embitter the
father’s life, when he came to know of tho
broken heart hi s boy i.i::: i: boar forever—but
he need not know jr 7 yd.
Now and then il. • young man went out
into tho hall for a clear view of the massive
mill:, and glanced fearfully along tlieir front,
and listened. But the roar of the machinery
did not abate, and through tho jail liko win¬
dows he could see the Ltvi.re: men and women
forms stepping L.-.ekv. ;u\i and forward, rais¬
ing and lowering their Laud t at the tasks that
had ushered in their cheerless youth, and
were wea in.; out tu ir to cans lives. Very
likely tin-re would Is; no trouble; could it be
they had fxeu influenced by ids words; Go-l
forbid lk it any such rc aionsibility should
rest on him. < taco, a man appeared at a
door. Fhiiip's heart stopped beating for an
in.,mat; he thought him the first of a long
line the! would now rush forth from their
prison. But the man only stood listlessly a
moment cs if there was absolutely nothing of
importance o:i his mind, and then went back.
So Philip return’ d to the office.
“Is that Brcto. 's on, that young man who
looks so pale? L- ilou't seem to take much

“Theso corporations are tlto neatest device
of tho century for a gagging machine. What
the devil’s the: u*o of tho help grumbling,
when there is nobody they can find to blame,
only a fiction of law.”
Philip was standing near tho speaker, and
was so galled by liis complacent enjoyment
of his own unfeeling philosophy as to venture
to make a suggestion.
“Isn't it just possible that this complaining
you wish to gag has some occasion f'
A dozen craned tlieir sleek wise nocks, to
stare at the man who talked so wildly.
' Why, my kind hearted young friend,*’ re¬
plied the philosopher, glad of an excuse to
vct.t his pract ical wisdom, “don’t you sev (he
poor "ill complain until the whole vast dis-
tonco between us and them la bridged over.
Wo have got to protect ourselves, you won't
Ueuy that. I climb to heights on another's
body. Everybody knows life is only a fight
—tho weakest goes to tho wall. The poor are
the weakest in this case.”
Could tho mill owner's son dispute such
plain propositions/ An odd silence pervaded
the company. The gentlemen in the windows
stov_ -d talking to look at this curious young
man, who seemed disposed to question tho
plainest axioms of his class. His father
hitched uneasily in bis chair and rustled a
bundle of papers „o attract Philip's attention.
What had got into tho boy/
But of what possible account was his
opinion. Mr. Breton rose to his feet, and all
eyes were turned toward the mill owner, on
tho course of whose ideas hung the fate of a
whole village. The clock struck 10.
“Gentlemen, you pronounce yourselves
satisfied,” he waited. His lawyer smiled
complacently, tho paymaster and his clerks
began piling up the books. “Well, then,
there are one or two formalities, my lawyer
informs me—What is that noise?”
It was like a rising north wind, not a little
like the breaking of the angry sea on a rock
bound shore. From the entrance to all the
mills swarmed jostling human forms. A
thousand beat Is turning at frequent intervals
to catch courage from their numbers, gave
an unpleasant snake like effect to the sway¬
ing columns which united as they swept on
toward the mill yard gates. Philip Breton
hurried back from tho hall and threw ojicn
the office door. Within all was still as death.
The complacent smile had died on the law¬
yer's lips. The clerks stood like statues,
while the ruddy color slowly faded from his
father’s face, giving place to undefined dread
of a danger that had elements no human arm
could control. Kings and armies before him
had trembled at tho murmur of mobs till
they learned how short lived was the mad
fury of tho people, no matter how terrible
their wrongs, until they learned how certain
was the disunion which made patient victims
so soon again out of the fierce avengers of
blood.
‘‘Do you nsk what tho noiso is?” cried
Philip from the doorway “It is a strike at
last, sec for yourself. ”
Tho sight of the mill hands in open revolt,
untouched by tho motives that commonly re¬
strained them, at once awed Philip, and de¬
termined him to oppose their violence with
his life if need be. The mill yard gates were
hastily unlocked by the frightened janitor,
and as the first excited throngs, like a nation
escaping out of bondage, swept through them,
only one man stood calmly watching from
the counting room piazza. In the front rank
ran some little children, whoso faces, that
should have been rosy in the first bloom of
life, were pinched and wan instead. Play
hours and merry sports were unknown to
them. What their baby fingers could earn
was the merest trifle, but it cost them tho
only hours that could ever be free from care.
A number of them were deformed from a
neglected infancy; they had to learn to bo
still because it hurt them to fall—tenderer
lessons there was no time for. Then came
the girls, chattering, and nervously pull¬
ing their shawls about their shoulders,
as if it were winter. One and all
seemed to wear the plaid shawl—badge of
their vocation—and there was the same dull
yellow hue on their cheeks, the same lines of
weariness on every face. Few of them looked
well; girls ought to be petted a little; but the
dreary monotony of their ill paid work had
frowned on their childhood as it cursed them
now. And instead of resting while they
might ripen into healthful, happy women and
blessed mothers, their unknitted frames and
soft muscles musbfwork like their starving
fathers and brothers. It is only tho women
of the rich whom the sentiment of chivalry
is for. In every eye was the dullness that
comes when hope goes, and tho vague, delic¬
ious dreaming, the eternal privilege of girl-
iio(,(l, is broken rudely upon, when love has
no move of its ideal glory, and all the beauty
of purity and refinement is lost in the grass
struggle for something to eat. The gentle,
poetical grace of womanhood was gone, those
huddling, awkward creatures were only
weaker men.
But Mr. Breton had pushed his chair to one
side and was making his way through the
group of his friends with hardly a word. The
rest t ried to smile, but ho was far too angry.
“Don’t go,” urged his lawyer, impera¬
tively laying his hand on his shoulder,
“don't think of it, you can do no kind of
good, and they will only insult you.”
“Insult me/” he repeated between his
teeth. Then he stopped, and suddenly faced
about. He frowned fiercely on the cautious
business men, whom he knew full well had
decided to give him the lurch. “If 1 had a
pair of horses who behaved badly, they are
stronger than I, but I would whip them and
starve them till they forgot it.” If he could
subdue his own rebellious factory hands, and
turn them back to their work like whipped
beasts, he knew these timid counselors would
come ba k into his office and put their names
to his corporation scheme, if.not--He bit
his lip and pushed on o r, of the door. His
help had never dart 1 mutiny be¬
fore: ho had fancied they were afraid of
him. Five minutes more would prove
whether they were or not.
Iu a moment more lie stood beside his son,
who watched, pale and stern, from the
counting room piazza; behind him his law¬
yer, whose face, deserted by smiles at last,
looked almost unfamiliar: and still further
back a few of the boldest of his visitors.
“For God's sake—go inside,” whispered
Philip between bus set teeth, “you will only
make them angrier.”
“Truckle to my own help, shall 1 i" re¬
peated his father in his harsh, grating miU
tones. and
The mill owner threw back his head
shoulders, and looked commanding!) - at tho
crowd. He could not understand why they
Were not afraid of him. Had he not lieeit
the dispenser of bread, almost of life or
death to them, for twenty years ? They were
a thousand, and he one. but for thirty years
their fate had trembled in the balance of his
will, and was it any less so today/ They
might bo ever so numerous and strong, the
subtle machinery of the laws and the in¬
genuity of capital put them at his mercy
He frowned majesUcaUy on the women and
children; where would their dinners and
suppers come from? Where could they lav
their foolish heads to-night if he < ’!■t
punidi them? But they only laughed iu a
novel sense of freedom as they bun id b> t >
enjoy their whole holiday.
Then came the men, with the hard, set
look on their faces that should liavo wanted
the mill owner that thi- was not the nt,mient
for hint to assert t< .boldly the sovereignty
that had made th^Jjole .lives a l-urT' j

to lip that Mr. Breton was at tho counting
room door, and very angry. But hi* son,
who had shown himself tbe'.r friend, anti
who had been too honest with them to give
them false counsel, stood with him, and the
men meant to show him tho respect ha do-
servod and inarch by in silence. Btill, the
seeds of old wrongs and daily repeated priva¬
tions had borne a bitter fruit in every heart,
and many a sullen look of hate Philip saw an
their faces.
“Stop, stop, Isay," Lout >: ' ton. A
murmur ran througli the and they
stopped. Philip saw the v. ,,.,ugni ss of the
halt. It had irked them to go by, w ithout
ono wort! to relieve the universal sensed
justice that, had seethed to lo.tg in their
breasts.
“You will do well to let them . a itenc?,*
muttered Philip, in n constrained voice, “the
poor creatures will have to come hack again
when they turn hungry.” But lu's fat her did
not appear to hoar him. Ills face had flushed
eritnson, and he seemed to have quite lost bis
self command, as lie shook bis fist at the sul¬
len crowd that widened every moment.
“Do you think you can force me, you beg¬
gars?’ For a moment admiration for his
courage divided the indignation of his
strange audience, and the first response was
as much applause as anger.
“No!” bo shouted, in a voice shrill with ex¬
citement. “You shall every one of you
starve first. You get more wages than you
earn now. Do you know what this striko
will fetch you/”
His lawyer plucked at his sleeve. That
man of discretion did not like the expression
on the faces of the workmen nearest to tho
piazza.
“This is quite uncalled for, my dear Bre¬
ton, and not only that,” he willed, ’‘butde¬
cidedly dan”-
But the excited proprietor shook off his
arm and stepiied forward, trembling with
impotent wrath.
“I -will tell you,” ho cried, “I will cut your
pay down 10 per cent, more.” A murmur
started on tho outskirts of the crowd, and
swelled into a roar at his very feet, while tho
massof ill clothed humanity swayed tumultu¬
ously.
Philip saw that a catastrophe was immi¬
nent. The excited workmen avoided his
anxious eyes, and there was a power of wrath
In their slightly stooping attitude, like a
.panther, before a spring. Their faces, too,
were lit up with a fierce glare, like sonic long
cagcil iiea-st thul has burst his liars. Injustice
after ali is an uncertain foundation for riches,
when it is thrilling human beings who suffer.
He rushed boldly forward to save his father
from violence, apparently he was absolutely
blind to the peril in which ho stood. Mr.
Breton’s face had grown suddenly purple.
“I’ll teach you to brave me. I'll starve
your obstinacy out of you, before one of you
conies back into my mill.”
He threw up his hands in distress, reeled
backward before their asto -i hed eyes, and
fell into the arms of his son, a victim of his
own passion. The poor were avenged. God
had taken judgment into his own hands.
The poor were avenged.
His friends bore his stricken form from
within, out of tho sight of the people. But
ho had tamed the mob at Inst, though it took
his life to do it. A hush as chill as the breath
of the death angel's wings had fallen upon
them. They waited with the patience of
thoir class, they watched doctors come and
attendants hurry to and fro, but no one told
them what had happened. Nothing but
glances of hate wore cast at them, till at last
Philip Breton himself, with a new desolation
in his face, came out alone on tho piazza.
Some fancied he stood unsteadily os if a vital
prop had been taken away, others saw a new
force and dignity in his thin, boyish face.
“My father did not finish hij speech,” he
said, with scathing satire in his voice; “l
will finish it for him.” They would have
borne all the reproach he might have heaped
upon them, but lie only said, “Will you go
back to work?’ His voice began to break ns
he added, “My father is dead, and l want to
take him h > ne."
Not a man, woman or child but worked
out their tasks that day. Ezekial Breton
had triumphed.
