"T. & N.
"Goodby, mother; soodby. sister." said
little Tint Sessongood, as tie closed the
gate In front of their cottage in a western
coal mining town one morning and Joined
the "llo ttneket Hrlgade," as the miners
were called, on their way to the works.
His little sister Cora stood on the front
step as long as she could see her brother
and waved her plump hands after him.
He looked back occasionally and threw
kisses to her.
Tim was fifteen years old and was a driver
In the coal mine; that is, be drove a mule
which drew th loaded coal care from
where the miners worked to the mouth of
th mine, where they were hoisted out at a
shaft, then rnn down a long incline to the
river, where the coal was loaded into
barges by means of a tipple.
Tim's father bad worked in the mine
nearly all his life, and the boy had gone
down into the darkness and among tbe
mysteries or the mine when lust old
enough to walk without assistance, and by
me time ne was twelve years old be was
familiar with all parts of It
At the age of thirteen he was anxious to
eara something to assist his father tn sup'
porting the family, and after much dead
ing his father permitted him to become a
driver.
Tim was assigned to drive old Ned, a da
cile mule, which had spent the most of his
daylight life underground. Ned was a
knowing animal, and took kindly to his
new master. 11m always had a caress for
his four footed friend. A bit of apple or
some other dainty morsel was Ned's daily
reward from Tim. In time the two became
so friendly that there was no friction be
tween them, and the miners pluvfullv
called them "T. te N." Tim got hold of
some brass tacks one day and drove them
into Ned's harness in such a way as to
make these characters appear in bright
letters.
As Tim clattered alona that morninir
on his way to tbe mouth of tbe mine the
sun was Just rising. It was early in Octo
her and tbe surrounding hi lis were re
splendent in their fall attire. Now and
then a red leaf dropped from among its
fellows and fluttered to the ground in the
calm atmosphere. Tbe sun was out in all
Its splendor that morning, the first time
for several days.
Tim did not notice tbe beauties of nature
ss be hurried along, not that he was not a
lover "of the beautiful, but his thoughts
were on a subject which more directly con
cerned his welfare.
His father had been killed in a mine ac
cident a few months before, and Tim felt
the responsibility of the support of his
mother and sister resting on his young
boulders. He desired to attend school
and acquire an education which would fit
him for higher duties In life, but at that
moment the outlook was decidedly gloomy
forour young friend. He could not see how
he could accomplish that which be desired.
as tbe support of the family depended al
most solely on bis labor.
- When be reached the month of the mln
Ned was backed into the caee and Tim fol
lowed and put up the bars. While wairinu
for the man in charee of the machinerv m
hove back tbe lever and lower the cage to
ui ootiom ot tne snare a hundred feet be
low, be beard some one inquire aa to the
stage of tbe water in the river, which
flowed swiftly by 200 yards avrav. Tim
glanced hastily riverward at the instant
the cage started downward and saw that
tha water was almost to tbe top of tbe
oanjts oi tne stream and was filled with
floating driftwood. Heavy fall rains bad
set in a week before, and in consequence of
tne great rainfall tbe stream was extremely
uign.
Without a thought of serious danirer.
however, Tim dropped foot after foot to
ward tbs center of the earth, with Ned
breathing softly on his neck as tbe two
stood crowded into the cage.

end paid no attention to them, but hitched
Ned to the train of empty cars that stood
wsitlng, end with a merry crack of his
whip and a cheerful "G'iong, Ned," Went
rattling away over the steel rail track.
Half a dozen miners had clambered into
tbe care with their dinner nails and the
tools which they bad taken out or tbe
mine the night before to get re-pointed.
Tim was perched upon the head of the for
ward car, and he had to frequently duck
his head to avoid colliding with well
known overhanging obstructions.
After going a short distance Tom looked
Into tbe car next to bim, and observed that
Its occupants, two old miners, were dis
cussing something of a serious nature.
Thomas Jenkins, tbe one nearest Tim, had
removed his lamp from his can and was
gently tapping tbe side of It against the to
of his shoe in order to expose more of the
wick so that the light would burn brighter. '
As the blaze flared op Tim could see the
faces of the two men, and was alarmed at
their seriousness. He caught the word
"water" as he strained his ears to bear
what they were saying. " The rumble of the
ears and tbe many echoes bounding back
from the walls and the roof of the mlna
drowned tbe remainder of tbe conversation.
.Tlm had nertl enough, however, to make
nneasy. The part of the mine in which
he worked was almost directly under tbe
bed of the river. There were many feet of
apparently solid sandstone between the
water and tbe coal rein, but sometimes it
was feared that with a high stage of water

The owners of the mine. In order to
gnard against such a catastronhe sa mnrh
es possible, had years before walled up the
entrance to that part of tbe mine, leaving
only room enough for tbe cars to nans
through. A stout oaken door was then
hung so that it closed from the Inside,
which made that part of the mioe almost
water tight , and separate from the other
pans oi toe mine, it was so arranged that

door be Involuntarily glanced at It to see
that it was in good working order. He
had become Imbued with tlia fear of Im
pending danger, and Ned, too, glanced
from side to side as he hurriril slung, lis
also occasionally sunned his disapproval.
All tb forenoon the empty care wore
orawn in and the loaded ones taken out
with the regularity of clockwork. Tim
and Ned bad been at that work so long
mat each knew exactly what to do. .
Overhead the river rumbled and roared.
Inch by Inch the water climbed the banks
end carried away th newly fallen leaves
or wnineu tiiem olT into little eddies, but
Tim knew nothing of what was going on
outalda. The owuers of tbe mine watched
the rapidly rising waters with aDnrehea-
alon. Th river was higher than it had
been for some time and they feared for th
safety of the men hart) at work beneath th
raging waters. A consultation wa held
ana it was resolved to call out ell th
miners and laborers at 18 o'clock. At 41
o'clock an order was seut down for every
man iu tne mm to come out at noon and
bring their tools with them. The order
was obeyed with alacrity. A few minutes
to IS the tool were piled Into empty cam
end th men filed from the river division
and went toward the bottom of the shaft
to be hoisted luto the bright sunshine and
safety.
'i iin was the last, and was about to go
wun tne train partly loaded with tools,
when he thniioht nf l,l riitmar null tMi
he bad left behind. He Jumped down and
ran back fifty yards to get it. When he re
turned Ned was pawing the ground imna
tlently. The Unlit of thedepartiminiiners
danced about in the dist ance as Tim sprang
to nis place behind Ned.
Suddenly there was a deafening roar
Everything seemed to tremble for a second.
Ned reared end plunged forward. Just
then a large fiat stone fell from the roof,
filling the cars with broken stones and
knocking Tim to the ground, where be was
held fast by somethlug across bis lower
limbs. His light was dashed ont by the
fall. At the same instant Ned tore loose
from his fastenings and plunged away in
tbe awful darkness.
Tim screamed for help, but the sound of
ma voice was drowned by a great noise
which seemed to an the cavity about bim.
At first a small stream of water poured
aown on him. it grew in volume every
second. Tim tugged end twisted to get
out from under the weight that held him
rest, His most violent efforts were fruit
less. He knew that his time was short if
he did not succeed in getting out. for he
realised that the long dreaded moment had
arrived when the river was breakinir into
the mine. He raised bis voice again and
again for help, but the only answer be
beard was millions of echoes.
Just es he was about to realen himself to
nis late be felt a warm breath on his face:
Ned bad come back. Tim reached ud and
ruaspea nis faithful friend tightly about
tnenecK and cried ont, "Back, Ned, back."
For a second he thought bis arms would
be pulled from bis body and at the shoul
ders. Then he felt himself drawn slowly
forward, and it seemed that his legs would
be broken as they slipped from anions the
stones that held him to the ground. The
instant he was free Ned bounded away be
tween tbe rails with Tim still henuiua to
his neck end his body swinging back above
tne animal's hoofs.
By this time the water was coming down
in a stream a foot In diameter and growing
larger every niomeut.
At the door to the department Ned stum
bled end threw Tim to one side, which
caused the animal to swerve near the wall.
In some way one trace chain caught In the
nanuie or the door end closed it with a
bang which wedged It between the door
pasta as Ned dashed on with bis human
burden toward the bottom of tbe shaft.
All was confusion there. The most able
oouiea were unrrymg np tne ladders, as a
general alarm bad been sounded when tbe
roar of water was first heard. Ned stoDtxd
with a snort and with his eyes sleamlni
in the darkless with excitement. Tim
dropped limply to the ground, but was
hastily picked np and carried to the cans.
Ned backed into his accustomed place, and
the signal was given to hoist away. Th
machinery was started end a few seconds
later Tim and Ned were safely on top of
the ground. All the miners were out in a
abort time. .
Tim was unconscious when he reached
the surface and was carried ont into the
fresh air. Aed followed closelv and watch
ed tbe movements of the men with as great
anxiety as a aumb brute could express.
In a short time Tim opened bis eyes, and
in turning bis head to one side he saw Nod.
The animal crowded np at a signal from
Tim and received the caresses lavished on
him In a way that would lead one to be
iieve that he knew all about what had
happened and realized that they had had a
Tory narrow escape. '
iim ana .Ned never went into the mine
again. The accidental closing of the door
had prevented the greater part of tbe mine
rrom being Hooded, and therebv a srreat
deal of valuable property was saved.
As a mark of gratitude the mine owners
provided for tbe Seasongood family and
sent utile Tim to school. He acquired a
good education, and reaching manhood
be embarked in business for himself.
He is now one of the honored end nroe
porous citizens oi that locality.
