On an open plain, under a statless sky black and thick as ink, s solitary man rested It sgalnst his hips, sometimes on one slde and sometimes on the other, to enable him to put both havds into the depths of his pockets at the sime tlme, hands benumbed and deprived of blood by the caltlng esst wind. A slngle thought occupied his mlnd—a mechanic without work and without home—the hope that the cold would be less severe after the break of day. For an hour and a half he had proceeded fa this manner, when, two kilometres from Mon's)n, he percelved, on the left, some red fires, three brasiers of glowing coal burning as if euspended In the open air. At first, through fesr, he hesitated, then he nunld not reelst the plitiful desire to warm his hands an instant, A steep path ran down before him. Then all was dark. Oa his right was a high board fenca shutting In a rallroad, while on the left roje a weedy slope sur- mounted by a confuslon of gables, the outlines of a village of low and irregular roofs. He took ahout two hundred ateps.

Then the young man saw it was a mine. He sgaln becams disheartened. What good? He would get no work there. In- stead of directing his steps toward the bullding, he finally ventured to cl'mb the hill on which barned the three coal fires, Infron kettles, to glve light and heat. 0. BURK | The outside workmen had been obl'gad to work late; they wera stlll clearing away the uscless rubbish. Now hecould hear the pushers shoving thelr cars upon the tresiles, and he distingunished flitting shadows tipping ll\em up near each fire. “Good evening,” sald he, approach!ng one of the kettles.

Their voices were loat; gusts of wind carrled away the words with plaintive moan, “‘There's Montson,” rosumed the drlver in a loud voice, turning toward the south, And sgain extending his hand, he pointed tow:rd soms objects mvlllblo In the dnrknen, naming them In order.

The shades of night were still deep, but the old man had so filled them with great forbodings, that the yonth un- cons:ious'y felt himeelf, particularly at that hour, within the limltless unknown, Was not that a cry of hunger which fol- lowed the March wind through that naked country! The winds were enraged, they seemed te bear the death of work, and a famine which should destroy many people. And with his wanderlng eyes he endeavyored to piarce the darkness, dis— tressed by the desire ard yet the fear of sight. Everything is annihilated in the unknown obecarity of night; he could only percelve, v the distance, the blast furnsces and coxe fi These with rowsa ot & hundred chimneys, et ablique- ly, traced by the ascent of ruddly flames; while two towers more to the left burned up all blue inthe open alr like g'ant torches. 1t had the sadness of incendear- {sm, no lights of stars shone forth from the threatening sky, only these noctur- nal fires belonging to a country of coal a |and iron. “You are perhaps from Belglum,” r somed the driver, having returned bu- hind Anton, Thls time he had only brought three care. They could easily bs emptled; an accldent had happened at the holltlng cage, a screw-nut broke, ltopplng l a work for a quarter of an hour. foot of the hill, a silence haa lnllen. ths cruskers were no longer shaking the trestles with tkelr constant pushing. Oae only heard comlng from the mine the dlstant sound of a hammer strikicg upon iron. *‘No, I am from the toath,” ed the young man, The assistent, after haviog emptled the carts, seated htmself upon the ground, glad of the accident, malntaining his mute unsoclsbility. He had »simply ralsed his large dull eyes to the driver as If annoyed by all his talk, The atter, In fact, spoko very little utually. It was necessary that the face ofa stranger pleased him, and that he shounld be found in one of thnlu longings for confidence which sometimes make old people talk aloud even to themtelves, ““As for me,” said he, *‘I'm from Montson; I'm called Bonnemort,” asked Anton, respond- “Is that & surnamaf” astonished.

It keeps.” There was silenco, the neighboring hammer beat its regular blows in the mines, the wind passed on with its wall like the cry of hunger and wear/ness coming from the depths of the night. Before the flames which looked wild, the old man continued in a lower voloe,turn- ing over in his mind the days gone by. Ah! certalnly it was not yesterday that he had struck the veln! His family had worked for the company of the Mortson mines alnce the start; and that dated far back; 1t had been lhun already a hun- dred and six yeare. His grandfather, William Mahon, a boy of thirteen years then, had found the rich coal at Requil- lart, the first mine of the company, an old abandoned mine to-day, down near the sugar-mill of Fauvelle, All the country knew him, to prove which the veln dlscovered was called the veln Wiillam, the firat nsme of his grandfather. He had not kaown him, a Iarge man, they ssy, very strong, who died of old age at sixty yesrs. Then his father, Nicolas Mahon, calied the Red, when less than forty years of age, was barned in the Vulture thatthey were sinking at that time; a cave in complete- ly crushed hlm, the rocks drank his blood and swallowed up his bon Two of his uncles and his three brothers, later on, had lost thelr lives there, He, Vincent Mahon, wko of all of them was left a llt- tle better preserved, except the crooked legs, pasted for a rogue. What matter, however, he worked. They sald that of the father and his sone, like they would have sald anything else. His sone, All- saints-day Mahon had dled, and his little sons, and all his people who were working in front of him, in thesame gallery. One hundred and five years of digging down, the children after the old men, for the same maater; well, many of the bosses could not have told so good a story. *‘Still, when one can eat!” murmured Anlon ain, what Issy; whlln one bas breld to eat one can live.” Bonnemont became sflent, his eyes turned toward the alley, whero some llghtl shone out cne by ome. Four o’clock eounded by the clock of Monston, the cold became graater. ‘“And s your compavy rich?’ asked Anton, The old msn lifted his shoulders, then let them drep, as though overwhelmed by the thought 3 ‘¢Ab, yer * * * Not as rloh, pu'hapl as {ts nefghbor the com- pany of Avzin.
