BUMMARY of PRECEDING CHAPTERS, Anton Lantier, a young mechanio out of work, reaches the coal mines of Monston, France, cold, hungry and penmless, The death of a miner makes a vacancy and he so- cures employment in the Valturomine, Ma- hon, one of the miners, and his daughter Oatherino, explain the work to him and as- sist him the first day, Ho hears the mu tter- ings of the miners against the company and throats of a strike. The exactions of the su- perintendent and the small wages received goad the workmen to the verge ‘of des pera- tionand paved the way to the coming strug- gle. Mahon again bofriends Anton, and se- cures lodgings for him at Rassaneur’s, s tip- pling hone near the mine, Anton’s determi. nation to leave Is overcoms by the kindne ss of the struggling miners, and ho decides to battle | 8 with them. The owners of the mines revel in luxury, and turn a deaf ear to ths appials of the starving families of ths workmen, who, in debt for food obtained duriog a strike three years previous, are barely able to secure sufficient food to sustain life. CHAPTER VI In a darkened room, through the closed blinds, little by little, appeared the faint gray streaks of dawn, epreading them- selven to the ceiling, but in & close at- mosphere all contlnued their slumbers; Lenore and Henry in each other's arms, Alzire Jying on her hump back, with head thrown backward, whila old Bonnemort, with mouth open and snoring loudly, oo- cupled the bed belonging to Johnnie and Zacharle. Not a breath came from the little room where the mother had fallen asloep while nursing Estello. The wooden clock down stalrs struck slx; along the alley was heard the sound of closlng doors, and the click clack of wooden shoes on the sldewalk, It was the screenets going to the mine. Until seven o'clock all was agaln silent. Then shutters were thrown back, and through the wall cume the sounds of yawning and coughing. Now the grinding of coffee was heard; yet no one awoke In that room, But, suddenly, the nolss of slaps and barking aroused Alzlre. Knowing what time it was, she ran barefooted to shake her mother. ¢‘Mother! mother! get up. you know you have to go out. care, you'll mash Estelio.” And she pulled the child from beneath its mother, “‘Sakes alive!” stammered the woman, rubbing her eyes. I am so tired, 1 could sleep all day. Dress Lenore and Henry, I'll take them with me; you can mind Estelle, I don’t want to drag her along, she'll catch cold In this weather.” She hastily washed herself and put on n old blas skir t, her best one, and a gray woolen jacket, on which she had sewn two patches the day before. “What shall Ido?’ murmured she. “‘The little ones must have something o eat.” As her mother descended the stalrs, Alzlre reo entered the room, taking with her Estelle who was crylog. But she was accustomed to tbe rage cf the little one; snd though only elght yeara old she calmed and amused her with the tender air of & little woman, Placing her in her stlll warm bed she coaxed her to eleep sgain, Now another uproar arose, it's late. Take and she was obliged to make peace be- tween Lenore and Henry who had at last awskened. Theeo children only agreed when asleep. The girl of six years, on awakening flow &t the boy of two, who could not defend himselt, Both had large heads oovered with yellow bair. Alzire pulled her elster out of the bed. Then they stamped while she washed them and put on each article of clothing, They did not open the shutters for fear of arousing old Bonnemort, who con- tinued to snore amid the confusion. ““Oome on down, if you're ready,” crled the mother, Then she opened the shutters, raked the fire and put on fome coal. A glance into the empty eauce pan dispelled the hope that the old man had left a little soup, She cooked a little handful of ver- micelll which had been held in reserve for three days. The cupboard was emp- ty; not a crust, not even a bone remained there, What would become of ttem if Maigrat stopped thelr credlt and the rich people at Piolaine would not glve her a bundred son When the men and girl returned fcom the mine there must be sowething for them to eat. They could not live without food. “Come down, right sgein, **I must be off " When Alzire and the two children » away,” she crled to arrive as neat as poesible, she carried them by tarns. Twlcs she nearly fell In the soft rond. When they had at last reached the doorstep, three large dogs jumped upon them, barklog so loud that the lit(le ones screamed with fear, as the conchman whipped them off, “Losave your shoes and ocome In,” ssld Honorine. In the dining-room the mother and ohildren stood motionless, over- b{ the sudden heat, and uneasy the glances of the old gentleman and lady who were stretched ont In arm- ou must attend to them, my daugh- " sald the latter, The Gregorys charged Cecll with thelr alms-glving. That entered Into thelr idea of a good education. It was neces— sary to be charltavle, they sald. Bat they flattered themselves that they dealt out ohurlty with Intelligence, having a continual fear of being mistaken and en- couraging vise. No, they never gave money, not ten sous, not even two, for it was well known that ass on as a beggar had two sous he spent them for drink. Therefore, thelr charity especlally con- sisted In the distribution of warm, win. ter clothing to the saor children, “Oh! the poor darlings!” sald Ocoll; “they from the cold! Honorlne, 0 up stalrs and get the bundle,” The malds were als> eyelng these mia- erable people with the pity and feeling of giels never In want of a meal. While the chambermald went up stairs, the cook, forgetting herself, set the milk- bread back upon the table and stood lookiog on with folded arms, “I still have two good woolen dresses and sowe little capes,” said Mademolselle. “The poor little things shall be warm.” Then Mahon’s wife found her tongue, stammering: ‘‘Thank you, Miss. You're very good.” Her eyes filled with tears; she was sure of a hundred sous, she only occupled her- welf in studying how to ask for them, if they were not offsred. maid not returning, a moment of embar- rassed sllence followed. On each aide of thelr mother, holding tight to her ekirts, the little onea fixedly regarded the milk- bread. “‘Have you only those two?” asked Mrs. Gregory, to break the aflence, “OL! Madame, I've seven.” Mr. Gregory, who had resumed his paper, gave an {ndignant start. “'Seven children, good heayens?” “It is improdent,” murmured the old lady. The mother excused herself with an uneasy gesture. At thelr house they never would have been able to live if two of the boys and the eldest girl had not been old enough to go into the mine. For It was neceseary %o feed the children, though they earned nothing. ““Have you worked in the mine for a long time?” asked Mrs. Gregory. The wuman smiled. “Ah! yes, I worked thers until I was married. But my husband’s people have been below for centuries. They struck the first blows of the pick at Reqalllart.” Again Mr, Gregory dropped his paper and glanced at the woman and those children with waxen ekins, faded halr and pinched features, slowly dylng fof hunger. Sllence fell agaln, No sound was heard save the cracking coal, which threw ou! a jet of gas. The warm room had that air of comfort only found in the apartments of the rich, **What is the matter with her,” crled Cecil impatlently. ¢‘Melanie, go and tell her that the bundle is in the bottom of the armolre, on the left.” Meanwhile, Mr. Gregory finfshed alond the refl:cilons with which these famished people had fnspired him, It 18 very true, there is some bad in this world; but, my good woman I can- not help saying the workmen are not always wise. Iustead of putting a few soun aside, like the peasants, the miners drink, run Into debt and end by not hav- ing enough to feed their children,” “‘Monsieur s right,” replled the wo- man sedately. ‘‘They are not always senaible, That's what I say to them when they complain. I'm much behind, though my husband drinks but little. On wedding days he sometimes takes too much, but it always ends there. So that don’t hold good with us, you see, for be- fore he was marrled he drank all the time. And yet there aredays like to-dasy, when you turn your pockets inslde our, without finding a eou.” She was thinking of the hundred sou pleces, and her vcice at first low and tloid, became loud and eager, as she ex- plained that fatal debt, They had pald regularly for some months; but one day they got behind, then all was ended, for they could not catch up sgain, The hole grew larger, and the men were disheart- ened with the work which did not pay thom enough to keep stralght, They conld notget outof thisccrape. Bub they must anderstand the whole sffatr. A shoemaker in want of & drink to wash down the dust, had begun their trouble. Perhaps it was no fault of his. At sny rate the workmen did not earn enonmgh. “The company glves you fuel and were there, she portloned the vermlcelll out into three little plates, saylng, she did not wish any. Although Catharine had already used ihe ooffee grounds, left from the day before, a eecond time, she poured water over them and drank two great bowls of coffee 80 weak that it looked llke water with a little iron rust. It was good all the same, It would strengthen her, “Listen,” sald she to Alzlre, ‘‘you must let your grandfather sleep, and see that Estelle does not break her neck. If she wakes up and cries too much, here’s a lump of sugar you can melt and give her in spoonfuls. I know you're too sensible to eat It yourself.” “‘How about achool, mamina?” “That'll have to walt another day. need you now.” “‘And the soup, don't you want me to make it If you're late?” “No, you'll have to walt ’tlll I get home?"” Alzire, with the precoclous Intelllgence of an tnvalld, knew how to make soup, But she did not inslst, she upderstood why she must walt. Now the whole valley was astir; troops of children were going cff to echool with loltering step. Eight o'clock struck; the sound of volces l-r;ue at the house of Levaque, on the eft, The wives' day had begun, which would be spent ln golng from house to house, thelr hands on their hips, thelr tongues running without a break, He smiled at the children and passed op, leayirg ber standing in the middle of the road, She was not religlous, but the thought had come to her that the priest might give her something. The journey through the black and stlcky mud was resumed, There were etill & mile to drag the now worn out children. At each side of the road were the mos:-covered fences, in- closing mauufactorles discolored with smoke, end flat, llke an ocean of brown turf, Not o tree was visible, but & purpling line denoted the forest of Vandame. *Oarry me, mamms.” And tucking up her dress, witha desire it houses, I believe,” sald Mra. Gregory. With & glance at the coal flaming in the fire-place she answered: “Yes, they glve us eoal. It's not very good bat it burns, The rent's only six france; that don't seem llke much to you, but eometimes its pretty hard to pay it. Why, to-dsy, If they were to cut me too plec:s I couldn't haod them sou, for you can't glve what you haven’t got.” The gentleman and lady were silent and yawned a little lanquldly, depressed and uncomfortable by the exposure of this misery. She fearing she had offend- ed them, added with a wise and calm alr of a practical womsn. *1y;does no good to complain, are 80 and we'll have to stand them, matter how much we trled, we couldn’t change anything. So it's best to be honest and work on with the strength the good God has given us, {sa’t it} l]llr. Gregory i A approv- ingly: A{ that moment a wan face, with large lipsand a broken nose, was flattened sgalnst the window pane, while a woman orfed: “Listen! you.” “‘No, not now,” replied Mahon's wife, “I'm in » hurry,” And, refusing the offer of a cup of warm coffee, she set out, pushing Lenore and Henry before her. From the rcom ahove, Bonnemort's regolar pnore filled the house, Outelde, the mother was surprised t> find it was no longer blowing. The sky was heavy, and a cbll'y thaw was damp- ening the walls aud filling the roads with the mud pecallar to coal reglons, black as soot, thick and clinjng, Boxing I've scmething new to tell Then came the open fields, large } m Lenore’s ears for heaping the mud on the toes of her shoes as upon the end of » shovel, she lefi the ailey, passed along the canal-road, and then, to shorten the distauce, cut through fields enclosed by -oovered feuces Maou'actori succeded each other, with high chimneys denoting s country of industry, Behind ® group of poplars was the old mine Requlilart, of which the carpeater-work of the tower alone remained standing. The chamber- | joy Now, turning to the right, the woman | was a good girl, and for any insult would csme ont upon the maln road. ‘‘Stop! stop! dirty pige,” etled she. “I'll make mad balls for you.” Tals time, Henry had “gatheral up o bandfal of mad snd was rolling It Lato & ball. The two children, after leing slapped, returned to thelr mother’s side, Inughing at the imprint of thelr nands In the middle of the road. They were al- ready covered with dirt, and exhausted with thelr efforts to plod throngh that ] * stioky mud, On one slde of Marchennes was two lesgues of stralght road, while the other ide wound dowa fato Monston, bullt upon aslope of the plaln. These roads of the north, lald out by rule and line, batween msnufasturlog villages, were woll made; little by little, butldings were golng up, tending to make of this part of the country only working towns. The emall brick houses, to prevent oness, wore palnted, some yellow, some blae, and others black, while a serpentine line of black ran across the village from right to left as far as the end of the hill. There wero two low pavilions and houses be- longing to manufacturing officials. The church, also of brick, resembled a new kind of furnace, with its square steeplo, already dirty from the flylng coal da And among the sugar mills, warehous: and wheel shops, the dance halls, smok- Ing rooms and saloons were so numerous that, of the thousand houses, five hun- dred sold liquor. As she approached the ware houses and shops belonging to the ccmpany the mother declded to take the hands of Henry and Lenore. Before them was the house of M. Hennebeau, an enor- mous bulldlog which was separated from the road by a railing and garden in which a few trees were reluctantly growlog. A carriage had stopped before the door from which a gentleman and lady were allght- ing, vlsltors arriving from Parle, for Mra, Hennebeau, who appeared in the vesti- gale gave an exclamation of surprlse and ““‘Come on now,” muttered the mother, pulling the children out of the mud. Very uneasy, she arrived at Malgrat's house, which was next to the director’s, a »impl3 wall separating them. The store In front contalned every saleable article, meat, fruit, bread, beer, crockery and notions, A former overaeer of the Vul- ture— he had started out in a small way; then thanks to the protection of the chiefs, his business had enlarged littls by little, drlving out all other shops in Monston. Having monopolizad trade,he was able to sell cheaper and glve credit. But he etill remained in the hands of the company, which had bullt for him his little house and store. “Here I am sgaln, Mr. Maigrat,” humbly sald the woman, finding him standing before the door. He eyed her without a word. Fat, cold and polite, he prided himeelf on never changing his mind, “You won't turn me awsy llke you did yesterday, will you! We mast have bread to est until Mondsy. I know we have owed you sixty francs for the last two years,” She spoke in short, faltering tones, It was an old debt, contracted during a strike, Twenty times they had promised to psy up, but were unable to do so; last poy day they had given him forty sous; then, a shoemaker, whom they owed twenty francs, threatened to have them arrested, and they were obliged to psy him all the mouey they had left. That was the reason they were now without a sou. At other tinfes, llke thelr comrads, thelr money held out until more was received. Without opening his mouth, and with arms crossed over his stomach, Miagrat ‘shook his hesd at each supplication. “Nothing, but two loaves of bread, Mr. Maigrat. I'm reasonable, I don’c ask for ccff:e. Only two three-pound loaves a dey. “No!” he thundered at last. His wife came forward, a wretched creature, who passed her days over a reglater without even daring to raise her head; but she moved away in fright on seelng the unhappy woman turn her be- seeching eyes toward her. They sald she ylelde2 her conjugal relations to the girls of the town. 1t was a known fact that when a miner wlshed a prolonga- tion of credit, by sending his wife or danghter, whether pratty or ugly. if they were compliant, 1t was obtaioed, Slck at heart and followed by the cold looks of Maigrat, the mother turned away, pushing her children before her. “This won't bring you luck, Mr, Mai- grat, remember that!” Only one hope remalned; the rich peo- ple at Plolalne. If they would nst glve her a huondred sous, they must all lie down and die, Tarning to the left ehe took the Jolselle road, in an angle of which was the director’s house, a verita- ble brick palace, to which a number of the great men of Paris, princes and per- gons of authority, came each sutumn to epjoy great dinners. Walking on, ehe planned how eho would spend the hun- dred eous; fust, some bread, then coffee, potatoes, a quart of beer, and, perhaps, & little hogshead of cheese for the men who needed meat. The Monteon priest, the Abbe Jolre, passed her, pickiog his way through the mud likea well-kept oat who was afraid of solling itself. He was a gocd wan, who lived as peace with all the world, “Good-moroing, Monsleur le Oare.” “With such sentiments, my good woman, one is above misfortune,” Honorlne and Melanfe brought in the bundle. Ceoll opened it and took out two little dresses and oa) also some stockings and mittens, e wounld do very well, and with the mald's assistance, she haattly tled up the bundle, for her plano teacher had arrived at last, aud she pushed the mother and children towards the door. 4‘We are soshort,” stammered the we- man, *If yeao've only a hundred-sou plece.” The words choked her, for the Mahons elap his face.
