THAT MOURN.

THEY '

BY SEAN F. BULLOCK.

 

Bunn Market was over, its hurry and
haggle. In corners and quiet spots of
the big market-yard you saw men and
women carefully counting their little

 

stores of silver, testing the coins wit-h -

their teeth, knotting them firmly in red
pocket handkerchiefs, finally stowing

them away in their long, wide pockets.

as cautiously as though every Sixpence
was a diamond. In the streets people
were leisurely moving towards the
shops, where tills were rattling and
counters teeming, and trade, for a few
hours, flourishing, after its whole six
days of blissful stagnation.

A cart laden with butter, chiefly in
firkins, issued from the. market-yard
gate, a. man between the shafts, one at
either wheel, two pulling behind, all
noisily cndeavoring to keep the cart-
from running amuck down hill into the
river. Close behind, like chief mourners
after a- hearse, one might fancy, came
Tim Karin and Nan, his wife—a. bat-
tered, slow-footed couple, heavily bur-
dened with the big load of their years,
white haired, both of them, and loan
as greyhounds. Heavily they shuttled
along in their clumsy boots; the man
with one mm across his back, the other
swinging limply; the woman holding
up her skii t with one hand and gripping
wit-h the other the handle of a big,
empty basket; both looking over the
tail-board Of the cart at the few pounds
of butter for which they had slaved
hard for weeks, and for which, after
hours Of haggling, they had just re-
ceived a. few most precious shillings.
Fixcdly they watched it. and mourn-
fully they were bidding it a. last fare-
well. ‘

They passed through the gate, strag—
gled across the footpath, and silently
watched the cart zigzag down the street,
run presently along the curb, and, amid
great shouting, discharge its contents
into the packing house.

» “Faith,” said Tim across his shoulder,
“ ’twas cliverly done. I wonder, some
day, they don’t break their necks.” He
wagged his head dubiously; Nan tucked
up her skirt; the two turned their faces
up hill and set out to share their profits
with the shops. Thc butter was gone,
and sorrow go with it!—’twas a heart-
break. _

Tim Kcrin‘s share of the profits was
a shining Sixpence, reluctantly ten-
dered to him by Nun, his wife, who now
walked a. couple of steps behind him,
with 18 pence shut tight in her hand
and the remainder of the butter money

(only a shilling or two) tied fast in a ,

cotton bag and safely stowed away in
the neck of her linscy-v.=oolscy dress.
Threepencc of Tim's Sixpence was to
buy tobacco, a penny might go in the
purchase of a weekly newspaper, apcn-
ny would buy a. pair of “’whangs"
(leather laces) for his boots; the penny
remaining, when all those luxuries had.
been honestly paid for, would buy a.
whole tumblcrful of frothing porter.
A whole tumblerful! _ At sight of it,
with his mind’s eye, Tim's lips dried
and his feet went quicker over the cob--
blestones.

Nun’s lips were tight, her brow wrin-
klcd. She was figuring. It would take
her to be powerfully ’cutc to fill her
basket with the things she wanted;
tea, sugar, bacon, a herring for the
Sunday’s dinner, a. bit 0’ white bread,
and—and supposing there was a penny
or two over (with knowing bargaining
there might be), was it likely now that
Mr. Murphy, the draper, would let her
have a. cheap yard of narrow, soiled
lace to go around the border of her
night caps. Twopencc might do, three-

‘ pence would be sure to— Aw, glory

be to goodness! (lid onybod y ever hear
of such romancin’, such extravagance:

sure it was running wild her wits were! :

Threcpcnce for lace indeed!

A friend stopped from behind a. cart :

and caught. Nan by the arm. What,
“78.18 it pass a. neighbor like- that, Mrs.
Kerin would do? l‘ass her ouldcst
friend, Mrs. Brady, as if she was am‘ile-
stone, and never pass the time of day,
or tell how she sold her butter, or how
the world was using herself!

“Och, och, Mrs. Kerin,” moaned Mrs.
Brady, “what have I done to ye, at all,
at all?” 7‘ ~

Nan stopped and put out her hand,
then volubly began explaining; sure,
sorrow the sight of Mrs. Brady she
had seen; sure, she never passed a
neighbor without- spaking; sure, ’twas

'walkin’ along romancin’ she was, fig-

urin’ in her head, seeing how far she
could make the few shillings go. “An’
how are you, ma’am ?"’ asked Nanwvhen
full pardon for her oversight had been
generously given and gratefully re-
ccived. “How are you, an’ all your
care?”

Meanwhile, Tim, his Sixpence hot in
his palm, had taken rt turn through the
throng of the streets, had questioned
his neighbors about sales and prices
(Just as though he werea man of stom-
ach and capital), had spelt out the
time on the big market-house clock as
he stood by the town pump listening
to the hoarse drone of a ballad-singer;
and now, on the sidewalk of Main
street, stood dreamily looking through
a shop window at a pile of newspapers
which stood precariously among an
array of tobacco pipes and sweet bot—
tles. If he bought. a. paper, Tim was
thinking, he would have awhole week’s
diversion 0’ nights; if he didn’t buy
it, he would save the price of another
tumblerful o’—— A heavy hand fell on
his :1 shoulder.

“Hello, Tim!” said his neighbor, Shan
Grogan; “havin’ a wee squint at the
sugar-sticks, is it ye are ?”

“Aw ay," answered Tim, turning:
“aw ay!‘ I was just lookin’ at the pa.-
pers there, an’ .wondeirin' What an ojus
lot 0’ news they give us nowadays for
c. penny. Enough to keep one goin’ for
3. week.” ‘

“Yis,” said Shan, “it’s a. wonderful
world. But aisy, Tim; ha.’ ye been to
the post lately?”

“New,” said Tim.

“Well, look in there if you’re passin’,

no son. The lassie that sells the stamps

 

 

m1: .

 

 

asked me' to tell ye. Gwan quick;
mebbe she’ll give ye news for noth-
in’.”

“Me name is lierin, miss,” he said
to the clerk, very humbly as to one of
the representatives of mighty govern-
ment itself; “Tim, for Christian; an'
they tell me ye’d mebbe be havin’ some-
thin’ for me?”

The girl handed him. a letter bearing
the Chicago postmark, stamped in one
of its bottom corners, and carrying its
address thence right up to the trip of
the envelope. Tim bore it tenderly to
the door and carefully inspected it,
then took it back to the counter.

“Whose countersign might that be,
miss, if ye please?” he asked, and
placed his thumb over the postmark.
Iiumbly he asked; curtly he was an-
swarcd.

“Chicago?” saidTiin. “Ay,a.y! I’m
obliged to ye, miss—I'm obliged to ye.
May the ‘Lord be good to ye an’ send
ye,a duke for a husband! Good day to
ye, miss,” said he, then stepped out
into the street- with his hand deep in
his pocket and the letter in. his hand,
and went off in search of Nan.

“Its from Padeen,” he kept thinking
to himself, and» he walked joyfully
along, his feet. cluttering loosely on the
pavement, his old face turning here
and there, watching for his wife; "it’s
from Padeen, sure as ever was!” Aw!
but he was glad. Aw! but Nan would
be glad. So long it was, ages and ages
ago, since they heard from him.
’Twasn’t. Padeen’s hand-write — new!
but sure it might have altered; every-
thing altered in the big country. Ayl.
’twas only poor ould Ireland that kept
the same—never any worse, never any
better. But. Where was Nan? Sure,
she ought to be in the shops. He was
dying to find her. Up and down he
went; at last he found her, still bobbing
heads at the tOp of Bridge street with
her friend Mrs. Brady.

“Aw, it’s here yeare, Nan ?” he said,
coming up. “An’ me hunt-in‘ the town
for ye. It’s yourself is well, Mrs.
lirad y, I’m hopin’ ? That’s right, that’s
right.” .

His voice came strangely broken and
shrill; his eyes danced like a. child’s:
still his hand gripped the letter in his
pocket.

“What’s the matter, Tim?” whis-
pcred Nan. “Hal ye heard news?”

“Ay, ay,” he said. “Come away till
I tell ye; come away.”

He turned, and, with Nan at his heels,
set. otl' almost. at a. run down-hill to-
wards the river. Aw, but his heartwas
thumpin’! “Aisy, Tim,” cried Nan be-
'lllld him; “aisy, man, or me breath—-
me b1‘eath—”

Without answering or slackening his
pace, Tim went on, turning through the
butt-cr-iiiau'ket gate, crossed the empty
yard, came to the “fill‘LllOI'lIlOSt' corner
of one of the long, low sheds. and there
halted, with his face to‘the wall. AWE
but his heart was thumpin’. Presently.
Nun came to him, panting and flur-
ricd.

“What is it, Tim?” she asked; “what-
is it?” -

Slowly Tim brought out his letter,
and, holding it'by both hands, let his
Wife. look at it.

“It‘s—it's from Padcen!” cried she:
“it’s from Padeen!”

“Yis,” said Tim. “It’s not his hand-
write, but it must be from him.”

“Ah, Tim, open it. quick,” shc panted ,
“open it quick!” . .

“Mcbbc,” said Tim, “we'd better wait
till we get home. The lignt’s bad, an’——”

“No, no, Tim; no, no; it‘d kill me to
wait.”

“Ay‘?” said Tim, then slowly drew his
knife from his pocket and tenderly cut
open the‘ top of the envelope. His tin-
gers trembled greatly as he fumbled
with the inclosure. Nun's hand went
quick: to her heart

“Aw, quick, Tim!” she cried. “Quick,
quick! v, '

“Don’t—don't flooster me, woman,"
said Tim. “I can't— can’t-——” The next
moment his shaking old fingers held :1
sheet of notcpapcr, and a black-edgcd
card on which glared out a long silvcrii
cross, and beneath it, in large letters,
the words Patrick Kerin.

N'in fell back a stei' her fin crs. . .

clutched at her dress over her heart.
Tim’s kniic Cluttered upon the stones,
and the envelope fluttered down. For
awhile they stood there silent, dread—
stricken. At last Nan spoke.

' “Read, Tim,” she said. "Read!”

“I——I can’t."‘

“Ye must, Tim; it’s better. Let us
know the worst, for God’s sake!”

“I———I— ’ Tim began; then quickly
opened the sheet. “It‘s—it's too dark
here," he mumbled. “I-—I want me
specs.”

“Read what ye can, Tim, an’ quick,
for God’s sake! ”

So Tim, still with his face to the wall.
raised the letter to catch the light, and
began to read: .

"Chicago City, U. S. A.

Nan]. As his oldest friend. I was with him

“Aw, I can read no more," said Tim,
with a. groan; “its too dark. I can read
no more. .Me poor ould I’adeen!”

Nan turned and looked vacant-1y
across at the busy street, dry-eyed and
gray-faced. Ah! her poor Padeen, dead
and buried away among the strangers,
dead and buried, and never, never would
she see him again, never hear his voice,
never grip his hand! Dead, dead! her
big, handsome, noble son.

She turned to Tim and caught him by
the sleeve. -

“Come away, Tim,” she said. “Come
away wi’ inc.” '

“Aw! Nan, Nan,” he said, as the big
tears sprang to his eyes. “Nan, me
girl, but it’s hard!”

Nan plucked at his sleeve. .

“Come away home, Tim,” she said,
“come away.” And at the word 'Iim

MONEY FOR ROYALTY.

England’s Nobles Interested in the
South Africa. Company.

 

 

Founded by a Number of the Queen’s
Privy Council—The Cause of the
Present Trouble in the
Transvaal.

 

While there are some who allege
that, owing to its aristocraticz‘composi-
tion, the chartered company of South
Africa, of which Mr. Cecil Rhodes is
the presiding deity, will never forfeit
its chart-er inspite of the inconceivable
act of aggression upon the Transvaal
republic by its officers and adminis-
trators, there are others of a. more
cynical turn of mind and acquaian
with the financial circumstances of the
company, who claim that the forfeiture
ofthc charter would be the happiest
thing that could possibly happen to
the company, and that Dr. Jameson's
raid across the British border was
undertaken wit-11 the express purpose
of. bringing about that event. There

is no doubt that the company for some

time has been in a. very bad way finan-
cially, that it finds itself unable to ful-

fill its promises and pay to its stock-

holders dividends On the sills-res which
the present holders have purchased at
enormous premiums from the noble
founders of the enterprise.

If the company were to go into liqui-
dfition by ordinary bankruptcy, due
to the failure to fulfill its undertak-
ings, there would be a. terrible row in
London, one-which might affect even

he Stability of the throne, since it
would be found that not only members
of the aristocracy but even of the reign-
ing house have realized vast sums of
money by the sale of shares in the con-
cern at huge premiums to the present
unfortunate holders, most of whom
will be ruined. The natural disposi-
tion of people under such circum-
stances is to allege fraud, and, unfortu-

nately, there has been much' in connec~

tion with the enterprise that appears
exceedingly fishy, to say the least.

3 ow, a. forfeiture of the charter would
practically relieve the company of much
of the odium with which it would other-
wise be saddled in the event of failure,
and the blame of the latter could be
laid to a. great extent. upon the govern-
ment, the directors of the. company
claiming that they could easily have
fulfilled all their engagement-s had not
the British government stepped in and
ruined the cOncern by repealing its
charter.

This is the only plausible excuse for
the otherwise absolutely insane freak

"of Dr. Jameson, one of the most clever,

level-headed and brilliant of lieuten-
ants of Mr. Cecil Rhodes—in one word,
a‘ man possessing all the traditional
shnewdness of thc Scotchman coupled
with the spirit of adventure of the
Englishman. He is just the kind of man
ready to sacrifice himself to cover the
retreat—the financial retreat—of his
associates and friends.

The founders of the company are,
first and foremost, Cecil Rhodes, a
member of the queen’s privy council
and prime minister of Cape Colony,
next in importance to his principal
partner in the concern being the duke

_ot Fife, son—in-law of the prince of

\‘i’ales, and the one of all the members
of the British nobility to whom the

' queen has shown the greatest degree

 

of favor. Then there is the duke of
Abercorn, chief of the prince of Walcs’
household, the leader Of the conserva-
tive party in Ireland and brother of
Judy Blanford, mother of the duke of
Marlborough. A fourth is Earl
Cray, son Of that Gen. Gray who
was so many years private secretary to
the queen and the prince consort and
governor of the prince of Wales before
the latter attained his majority.

It will be seen from these names that
the social and political importance of
the leading spirits in the South Africa
company are such that. neither Lord

Salisbury nor Mr. Joseph Chamberlain,’

the secretary of state for the colonies,
would dare to take upon themselves the
responsibility of aniiulling the charter

the two dukes, the earl and the privy
councilor and colonial premier chiefly
interested in the affair.

Let it be added that there is hardly a
member of the royal family, from the
prince of Wales down to Prince Henry
of Bat-tenberg, who has not made mone y
out of the concern and held shares in
it, and the same may be said of the
principal members of the royal house-
hold and society, the grand send—off
which Cecil Rhodes’ company received
being in a great measure due to the
discrimination which he displayed in
allotting founders’ shares only to those
who, either through their social or Of-
ficial influence, could promote the in—
terests of the concern. Most of them,
however, have'been clever enough to
unload their holdings when the shares
were at the highest notch—Chicago

lecord.

 

A Mr. Malanrop.

A real Mr. Malaprop was discovered
the other day in the person of a. Broad-
way cable-car conductor. The car was
on a downtown trip, and had but few
passengers until it reached Fourteenth
street. There half a dozen people, five
women and one man, got aboard. Three
0f the women and the man found seats
together, but the other two went. to an—
other pa-rt Of the car, thereby leaving
it doubtful as to whether they were
members of the partypr not. The man
with the three, instead of giving the ex-
act change, offered a half-dollar in pay-
ment of the fares, and the conductor
was as much in the dark as ever. To in~
quire was plainly the only way to arrive
at. the truth. With a polite wave of
his hand toward the two women in the
further corner, he asked blandly: “Are
those ladies implicated ?”w—.N. Y. Trib-

THE IVORY INDUSTRY.

It Means Death to leventylFive Thousand

Elephants Annually. .

One-fifth of the world’s commerce in
ivory comes to Great Britain, audit will
astonish most people, says Answers,
to learn that 15,000 eleph‘ants have to be
killed every year to keep our markets
supplied with the precious substance.
Altogether, to keep the Whole world in
ivory—apart from fossil tusks—75,000
elephants are slaughtered annually.

Africa. is the great ivory country; and
in the Congo basin, the best hunting
ground, there are supposed to be about,
200,000 elephants, worth altogether
about £500,000. The average weight
of ivory obtained from a. single ,ele-
phant is about 50 pounds.
weighing about 100 pounds each have
been procured, but this is very rare.

The most expensive tusks are those
used in the manufacture of billiard
balls; they cost, as a. rule, £110 a 100-
weight. . .

Ivory dust and shavings are used by
confectioners to stiffen the more ex-
pensive kinds of jellies. The scrapings
are often burnt and made into a. paint
known as “ivory black,” worth about
£20 a. ton. . _ '

The hardest of all ivory is that Ob-
tained from the hippopotamus. It will
emit sparks like a piece of flint when
struck with steel, and is principally
used in making artificial teeth.

HE HAS HIS TROUBLES.

Trials of a Messenger Boy for the Tele-
graph Company.

A telegrhaph messenger probably sees
as much of the other side of human
nature as a. doctor. One told an Atchi-
son Globe writer recently thatawomau
never opened a. telegram without turn-
ing pale, and, when the message was
not alarming, they looked disappointed.
He delivered about two death mes-
sages a. day,four birth m'essegeso great
many business messages, and once in a
great while a. love message that makes
him tired to carry it. He carried one
recently to a. young man in town that
read:

“How are you today darling?"

The answer went promptly back by
the boy and was to this effect: “I am
better, love.” He once carried a. mes-
sage of death to a. colored woman, and
after reading it her emotion overcome
her to such an extent that she caught
the messenger in her arms and s’oundly
boxed his ears. Another colored woman
refused to open or sign for ,a. message,
but walked the floor and beat her
breast, and screamed, supposing it an-
nounced a. death. When all the neigh—
bors had come in, one more venture-
some than the rest road the message.
It was simplya notice that the woman’s
sister would come up from Leaven-
worth that evening to see her.

A “CLEAN" SHAVE.

Precautions Which Might Be Adopted for
the Safety of Customers.

Nothing is easier than for contagion
to be conveyed from a. diseased to a
healthy skin during the act of shav-
ing, and many cases have now been re—
corded, says the Medical Press, prov-
ing that diseased processes have in this
manner been propagated. Probably
the readicst manner available to the
barber for preventing such untoward
occurrences would be by sterilizing his
“instruments" by means of heat, either
by steam or boiling water. Razors
should be made so that their handles
would not suffer from the exposure to
high degrees of brunt, and the rule should
beenforced that in no case should any of
the “instruments” be used consecutive—
ly without having first been submitted
to the sterilizing process. Under this
rule, then, each customer would be
surccf having a. “clean” shave in more
senses than one. Of course, also, on
the principle of a. “fresh pot of tea for
each customer,” a. freshly scolded-out
lather pot. should be included with each.
shave. Unless these or similar pre-
cautions be caa'ried out in barbers’
shops, cases of the conveyance of in-
fectious skin diseases from customer
to customer cannot fail to occur.

PHYLLOXERA DISAPPEARS;

Nature Now Does What Men Have Long
Tried in Vain to Do.

Nature is doing for California vine-
yardists what they long and fruitless] y
tried to 'do for themselves. It is re-
ported from. many localities that the
phylloxera, the most serious pestthat-
has ever attacked the vines, is dying
out. The experts have tried every
remedy to stay the progress of this
pest, but without. avail, and six years.
ago the vineyardists of the Sonoma and
Napa. valleys plowed up‘ all their vines
and replantcd the ground with resist~
ant stock. The experts believed that.
all non-reSistont vines were doomed
to destruction by the phylloxera. But
reports have recently come to the state
inspector of ordhard pests that's ma-
terial falling off in the ravages of the
pest has been noticed for some time.
Vines once affected by it. are now at-
most free. The inspector has begun
a thorough investigation Of the pleas-

 

 

 

ing phenomena. He thinks some nat- '
ural enemy of the 'pest has appeared '

or that some deadly disease has at-
tacked the phylloxera and is extermin-
ating it. Whatever is the cause. the re-
sult will mean great gain for the vine-
yardists.

A Pertinent Answer.

, An amusing correspondence recently
took place between a Wisconsin farmer

and a. local boiler firm. The farmer .

wrote. as follows: “Dere Sires I have a
1,000 akers of trees that I want cut. Im
pore but Im Willing to pay too hundred

,dolers fer an engin that will do my

work,” and he went on to explain just
what sort of an engine he wanted. The
boiler firm saw that'the engine neces‘
sary to accomplish the devastation of
his virginal forest would cost $3,000,
and they informed him to this effect. A
week passed and then the following
pithy epi'stlé came from the Wisconsin
woods: .‘ Dere Sires what "in all-git out
