Translated from the French. BUMMARY OF PRECKDING OHAPTES, Anton Lantier, a young mechanic out of work, roaches the coal mines of Monston, France, cold, hungry and penniless, The death of a miner makea & vacinoy and he se- cures employment in the Vulturo mine, Ma- hon, one of the miners, and his daughter Catherine, explaia the work to him and as- wist him the first day., Ho hears the mutter- ings of the miners against the company and throats of astrike, The exactions of the su- perintendent and the small wages received goad the workmen to the verge of despera- tion and paved the way to the coming strug- gle. CHAPTER VI, golng up in the cage with four vtuers, looking like dirty bundles, Anton resolved to resume his journey and fam- Ish on the roads. As well starve at once as to again deecond to the bottoin of that hell, and then not even earn his bread. Oatherlne, shrouded In the darknesy sbave him, was no longer by his aide. But he must not think of such foolish- nese; for, with a deeper Insight, ho conld not feel the resignation of thess people, and, In the end, would strangle soms of- ficlal, Suddenly, his eyes, habituated to the gloom below, were blinded by the transl- tlon to daylight. It was none the less a rellef for him to feel the cage firmly se- cured. The door was opened, and the group of workmen sprang from the cars, “Don't forget, Mouquet,” whispered Zcharle to » young man, *thls evening at the Volcan.” "The Volcan was a concert gardea at Monston. Mouquset laughed, winking his left eye, Short and fat, like his fa- ther and sister, he had the greedy air of a boy who ato all ho could get, without thought of the morrow. At that moment his sister, jumplng from tho cago, playfally elapped him on- the back, Anton roarcely recognized the superln- tendent’s office, last seen by him in the dim light of a lantern. 1t was very dirty, The daylight struggled through the dusty windows. The ongine, slono, was bright; the stecl cables, covered with grease, slid cff liko ribbon dipped in ink; and the drums above, tho heaving frame. which supported them; the ocages; the oare, oll increased the sombro appesrance of that room, The fligglrg constantly shook with the ceaselssa rolliog of wheels- whils from the azcending coal arose a fine black dust, covering the floor and walls as far aa the tower. Chaeval, who had gone to look &% the tally-list In the superintendent’s office, returned forious. He saw that two cars had been rejacted, ono deficient In quan- tity, the otter inferior in quality. “*We've done well to-dsy,” he cried. “Twenty sous lost. This fs what we got for taking in lezy people, who use thelr arms as a hog does its tall!” His side-long glance was directed to Anton as he finished the sentence. The Iatter was about to respond with a blow of the fist; then he asked himeelf what was the use when he was going to leave. That thought restrained him, ““No one can do well right off,” eald Mahon, to make peacs, “‘It'il be’ battor to-morrow.” Sl they were angry, anxious to quar- rel. When they stopped to give thelr lamps to the keeper, Lsvaquo swore at the man, whom he accused of slighting his work. But thelr anger abated some- what in tho waiting room, befors the newly roplenished fire, the reflection of which, upon the walls cof that huge, win- dowlees hall, seemed to fill {t with flames, Tarning thelr backa to the red- denlng coals for the moment, all was {orgotten, save that they were warm, “I'm golng,” said Chavsl, laylng his tools back in his ohest and putting on his shoes. No one replled. But Moquette ran off behind him. The others sneered, know- ing he was throngh with her; and Zsch- arle turved towards his tister with a laugh. Meanwhile Catherine was talking to her fatherin & low tone. He appeared surprised, then gave an approving nod of the head, and calling Anton, gave him his bundle. “Bisten,” sald ho, ““if you havyn'ta sou you'll atarve before pay day. Don’c you want me to get credit for you some- where?” The young man was ombarrsssed. Just at that moment he was going to ask for his thirty sous and leave. ~ But pride prevented his dofng so before the young gltl. She watohed him closely, think- ing he was sulky. “You know, I don’t promize you any- anything,” continued Mzhon, “they can’t do more than refute us, though,” Then Anton consented, They would not keop bim without money; he would eat something and then go away. Buton seeing Oatherine’s joy he regretted not having no; with a friendly glance she smiled, happy In the thought that ahe had helped him, As they became wsarm, putting on thelr shoen egaln, one by ons the miners left the rovm, Levaqueand the Mahons, shutting up their chests, went off togeth- er. But when they arrived at the screening shed s quarrel arrested them. Tt was in & large shed, the black beams of which were covered with coal dust, with great windows through which a cur- rent of alr continually passed. The cars brought here by boys, were emptled upon iron hoppers, on the right aod left of which the eners, armed with a shovel and rake, and mounted upon platforms of piled-up stones, pushed forward the good o0oxl which finally tell through funnels {nto the wagons placed under the shed. Philomene Levaque, a small pale glrl with the slender form of a consumptive, her face projecting from a blue woolen rag, and her hands and arme black as far a8 tho elbows, asslsted the mcther of Peters in sorting the coal, the Brale, as they called her, who wi terrible old hag, with eyes like ascreech-owl, and mouth drawn up a» tight as the purss of amiser. These two were quarreling; the glrl accused tho old woman of stealing her coal. This was s costloual cause of strifa, as they were pald by the basket. “Koock a hole in her!' crled Zacharle from above, to his glrl The sreeners all laoghod, The Bru'e answered back: '\'uu'd better miad your own busi nees,” Mahon trled to prevent his son from Interfering, but at that moment sn over soer came forward and all sat to work sgaln acreening the cosl, Outside the wind had suddenly calmed, bat a cold dampnees fell from the gres sky, The miners shrazged thelr should ers, and, separatiog, went forth swinging theie arme, They bad puesed an entire W day In the midst of dist, and now came out black as negroes. “Look| here’s Boutelonp,” sald Zach- arle, Ianghing. Levaqae, Wwithout stopplng, exehanged a few words with his lodger, a Iarge, dark man of thirty-five yeats, with a steady and honest mien. *Is there any soup, Loula?” “I think so.” “Then th old woman s in a good hu mor to-day 1’ “‘Yes, I think she 1s.” Other miners wore arniving, & new set, who one by one were swallowed up tn the mino. It was three o’clock, the time for another shift. The mine never rested; day and night human insects dug In the rock two hundred feet under the beet fields, The children had gone on before. John. nle was confiding to Robert a plan for obtalning for mous’ worth of tobacso, while Lydie followed respectiully ata distance. Catharine lu\ke:Y with Zach- arle and Anton without saylog a word, Before tho tavern ““A I’ Avantage” Ma- hon and Lavaque jined them “‘Here we are; come on In,” eald the first to Anton. As they separated, Catherlno stood motlonless for an instant, takinga last look av the young man, her eyes limpld Ilke clear spring water; then, smillng, she went off with the others up the road leading to thelr alley. The tavern was at a crose-road between the mine and the village, It was a brick house, two storles high, whitewashed from top to bottom and its windows |y ornamented with large sky-blue sashes. Upon a hanglng sign nailsd sbove the door wore tha words: “*A I’ Avantage Inn, kept by Rasseneur.” In the rear there was only narrow yard fnclosed by a hedge. The company, which had endeavored to buy this place with ita grounds, was greatly annoyed by this tavern, standing in the open field so neer the exlt of the mines, “'Go in,” said Mahon to Anton. It was a small, bare room, with white walls, There wero a dozen chalrs, three tables and a bar made of spruce, behind which was & half dozen different drinks, three bottles of which was liquor, a decanter, a littlo tin cash box and a pewter tap for the beer—this was all. Not a ploture, not & shelf, not even & game-board was to bescen. In the fron firo-place, var- nished and bright, a block of coal was sbwly burning. ~ The roof was covered with a layer of white rand, which ab- sorbed the molsture of that dsmp coun- try: “'Give me a drlnk,” demanded Mahon, of a large blonde ghl, whoso heavy faco was pltted with emalipox. “Is Rassenenr hero?” The girl, waltlog on him, nodded her head. Slowly, withont taking breath, the miner emptled half the glasa to wash down the dust, wh'ch choked him. He offored his companion nothing. One other customer was there, another wet and dirty miner, seated before a table drinking his beer in silence, with an air of profound moditation. At a gesturs his third drink was served him, for which he patd; then, without having spoken a word, he went away. Just then, a largs, clean-shaven man, about thirty-elght years of sge, entered, s jolly emile breaking over his round face. It wasRassenevr,a miner whom the company had dlecharged as the leader of astrlke which had taken place three years before. Belng a good workman who spoke well, he soon became the chtef of the miners. His wife already kept a shop, llke many miners’ wives; and, when thrown oat fn the sireet, he be- came a tavern keeper, placing his saloon right In frontof the Vulture as a menaceto tho company. Hls house, becoming a center, prospered, he enrliched himself by the wrath which he had, little by lit- tle, Infused in his old comrades. *‘Here's a fellow I engaged this morn- |ing,” explained Mahon immediately. “Aro elther of your two rooms empty, and wiil you trust him until the 15:h?” Rasseneur’s face at once became cloud- ed. He glanced at Anton and replled without hesltation. “It's Impossible, My two rooms are taken,” The young man, expectlng such & re- ussl, who was not in the least disap- pointsd, He marveled st his great de- sire to loave, and yct was unwilling t> do 80 untll he had recelved his thirty sous. One by one cther mivers extered, and aftsr drinking went off again alono. It was slmply washiog without joy or pleas- ure, “'Is there anything new?” asked Ras- soneur, of Mahon, who was slowly drink- Ing his beer. The letter turnlng around and seeing only Avton eaid: *‘They've been wrangling agaln. It's about the timbering now.” As ho narrsted the affale the saloon- keoper's face became very red. Final. ly, with flashing eyes, ho broke out: “‘Well, they ars beatts If they lower thelr price.” Anton made hlm uncomfortable. He continned to eye him olosely while speaking of the director, Hennebean, his wlife and nephew, little Megrel, withont namlng them personally, saying it could not alwags cor tinue, the end was bound to come; the suffering was too great. He spoke of the woeks which were closed, the workmen who hsd gono away. For s month he had given cut more than six loaves of bread a day. Ho had been told the eventng before that M, Denneu~ Iln, the owner of a nelghboring mine, feared he would be compelled to shut down, Moreover, ho had just recsived a lotter from Lille filled with alarming detalls, ““You know,” sald he, “It csme from :hlt" person you saw here one even- og Hils wife had just entered, s tall, thin but goodhearted woman, with long nose and high cheed bones. She was more of a radical than her husband, “‘The letter from Plachart,” sald she. “Ah! If ho was master, It wouldn't be long before things would go better.” Anton llstenlog, became exclted with thess suggestions of revenge. That uame, coming out so suidenly, made him start, and without thinking he sald alond: “I know Plachart,” d'l‘hay looked at him as he hastened to a I am a machinlst, ho was m; foreman, A fine man. 1've often talked with him,” Rasseneur fnspected him sgaln and & quick ckange of eudden sympathy came over him, ~ At length ha sald to his wife: “‘Mahon brought thils man; he is s wheeler, and he wants bim to get a room here, and asks (f we won't trast him ti/i the fifteenth, Then the sffsir was settled in a fow words, They bad » roow; the lodger oad left that morning; and the tavern- koeper very much exoited, fnsated that "0 asked Do more than was reasonable, His wifo shrugged her shoulders, walviog ner right to epeak, “Guod night,” sald Mahon. *‘All thie won't keep them from cutting down, and s Loug ss they do that, thiogs will pever mend, Jast thick, you're a strong wen, now that you've been oat of the mine three years,’” “‘Yes, I'm much better off,” sald Ras- seneur complacently. Anton went as far as the door with the miner, thanking him, but the latter nodded his head without a word, and the young man_watched him golng qaletly up the road to the alley, Mme. Ras- seneur, wishlog to serve some customers, asked him to walt a mioute and she wsuld conduct him to the room where he could wash. Should he remaln? Agsin he hesttated, with an aneasiness which made hlm long for the liberty of the highroade, a thirst for the sun as well as for the joy of belng his own master, He felt as though some yesrs had passed stnco his ariival there, end he hated to g0 back to thoso dark gallerles to spend houra under the earth flat on his stom- ach. No, it was too hacd, his pride re- volted at the Ides of belng & boast that they first made blind and then wiped out altogether, While Anton wae thus debating In his mind, he all at oncs became aware of the immense plaln before hlm. Ho was ns tonlshed; he had not imaglned it was no large when old Bonnemort had Indicated 1t with a gesturo amld the shadows, Be- fore him lay the Vulture in a pile of dirt, with 1ts buildings of brick and wood, (ts tarred soreening shed, the tower with its slate roof, the engine-roomand the high chimney of a light red—sll rlsing cut of the murky atmosphere. A pavement ex tended around the bulldings. He had not thought 1t so large, changed by the coal-dust into an inky lake, spanned by :idgas and encumbered in one corner by an acoumulation of timber that remiaded one of a felled forest. On the right, an old mine Intercepted the vlew, colossal as & giant's barricade, al- roady covered with grass on ono side, but on the other, tcorohed by an interlor fire which had burned for a year with a thick emoke, leaving on the surface slate and sandstone, with long tralls of bloody fire- blast. Then the fie/ds spread out before him, interminable fields of wheat and boete, bat bare at that time of the year; and marathes with stunted willows, while in the distance, thin rows of poplar troes divided the plain, and, still farther cff, wore white spots indicating villages Marchiennes on the north, Monston in front, while on the east the foreat of Vandame, with its leafless troes bordered the horizon with a violet colored line. Under the sombre sky of that winter afternoon it seemed as thoogh all the darkness of Vultare, all the flying coal- dust, was thrown over that plain, pow- dering the trees, darkenlng the roade, covering the entlro earth, Anton looked around, and that which eurprised him above all was a canal,which he had not observed in the night. ~From the - Vulture to Marchlennes, a stralght canal, two leagues in length extended like a silver ribbon; an avenue bounded with large trecs, elcvated above the low ground and going out into Infinlty with & perspective of groen banks, while in fts pale waters cisported a multitade of fishes. Neer the mine was a wharf, at which boats were mocr:d, walting to be filled from the cars; then the canal made a bend, cutting across the marsh, a hugo transport way for coal and fron. f2Anton turned hls eyes from the canal to the hamlet bullt upor the plain, of which ke could only distingulsh the red roofs In long, regalar lines, at the end of a bend In the road; then they returned to the Valture, pausing along the clayish slops at two enormous heaps of brick manufactured on thepremises. A branch of the company’s rallroad passed lower down, turning st the mines. Doubtless this portion of the road had not been completed, for a number of men were pushiog along a creaking car. It was no looger the unknown of tne night shadowa, with its inexplicable ncises, and the flam- fog of strange looking lights, In the distance, the high farnaces and coke firen were subdued by the daylight. He stood motlonless, The steam englne was puff- ing, with the same great, long breaths, snd he now distingulshed its ascending clouds of gray steam, And now his declslon was reached. Perhaps he thought of again seeing Cath- erine’s biight eyes; perhaps it was still more tho sickening alr which came from the Vaulture he did not know himsalf, But he longed agaln to descend t> the bottom of that mine, to suffer with the cthers, Ho thonght savsgely of those people of whom old Bonnemort had epoken, of that unknown God to whom +en thousand famishing peopls were gly- Ing thelr lives without knowing him, [0 BE coNTINUED.] e —— OHOLERA, best and surest preventitive Duriv’s Pure MaLr WHIskeY, Reoom- mended by leadiog Physiclans, Sold by Deug- gists and Grocers, PERSONAL, L. ¥, Whitehead is in off the road for a fow days, Thomas Millet, of Des Moines, who has been spending the past two days hore, has re- turned home, Ira Copron, head cletk at the Ozden house, has returned from his short vacation as ““fat and saucy a8 ever.” L. 8lmmons, of Michigan, and one of the best experienced eowing machlne men in the west, is in the city, Dr O.

She s30ured employment at Neumeyer's hotel, and has been st work there ever slnce. About two months ago 8 man a; rived here, giving his name as Eawil Kensley, and cisming to be the husband of the woman., He mays that they were marrled 1in the old country, where he was a miller, and that the woman getting postesston of about 1 500 of hls money deserted him, and ho has been hunting for her far and nesr, until a short timo sgo ho learned by mutual acquaintancos that eho had oome to Americs and was living here Then he osmo here, and has been trying to get somo satlsfaction for hia grlovances.
