    j MASTER OFTHE MINE
By Robert Buchanan.
a.
CnATTER XXV.
' A fortnight passed away. Short as was
the time, it seemed an age to me, hnn-;
Spring I ru for dome news from
borne. I had received ouo letter, written
by Annie, in which she told me that no
change had taken place since my depart
ure, but made no mention whatever of
Madeline Graham or George Redruth.
To this I had replied In as cheerful a
train . aa possible, but shamefacedly
keeping eilence on the subject nearest to
mr hexirt. I waa full, therefore, of se
cret anxiety.
One Sunday, the second after my ar
rival, I was astonished to see light
country cart draw np at the door, con
taining John Rudd and my cousin Annie.
Startled, and fearing some bad news, I
stepped out to greet them, and learned
that they had driven over from Bar
mouth, a town some twenty miles dis
tant, where they had arrived in the car
rier's wagon on the previous night. 1
assisted Annie down, and saw that she
wras very pale and trembled. Then,
while John Rudd drove away to put up
the horse, I led my cousin into the cot
tage. Directly we were alone, she burst into
toara,
"Something has happened," I cried.
"Speak, Annie! don't keep me In sus
pense! la anything wrong at home?"
"All's well at home, Hugh, dear; it's
not that which brought me over. I came
to tell yon that the marriage day is fixed.
They are to be wedded in St. Gurlott'a
next Wednesday morning."
I knew of whom the spoke, though she
mentioned no names, and I was both sur
prised and angry that she should travel
to me with so sorry a message. She
aw the darkness gathering in my face,
nd cried eagerly: ,
"Hugh, dear, don't be angry! I felt I
most , come and tell you for oh ! it is
breaking my heart, as well as yours."
"Breaking your heart?" I echoed.
"What is it to you?"
"It is everything to me. Master
George, though he is going to" wed Mia
Graham, U my husband in the sight of
God!"
"Then I was right!" I cried. "I was
right from the fir:. The villain!"
All my spirit arose once more against
her, for though I had suspected the truth,
lier confession came upon me like a thun
derbolt. Stretching out her hands piti
fully to me, she proceeded:
"Hugh, dear, I promised that I would
one day tell you everything, and it is for
that I came. I waited on till the last, I
thought to hold my peace, I hoped and
prayed that he would never go so far;
but when I heard the day was fixed, my
mind was made up. , But first I went to
him, and prayed to him on my knees.
Then, finding that it was all in vain, I
determined to come here."
"You are fpeaking of George Red
ruth?" I asked, sternly. ,
"Yes!" ' .
" "Why have yon screened him so long?"
"Because I made him a promise. Be
cause I believed until the very last that
be might make amends. Because be
cause I did not wish to see him harmed!
Oh, Hngh, forgive me! don't look at me
like that! You promised to be a brother
to me always. Keep your promise now."
How could I resist her tad appeal? I
was a churl to repulse her, even for a
moment. But, casting off the mask of
severity, I kissed her, and placed her in
dhair. As she looked up at me with
her pleading, tearful eyes, I silently
cursed the scoundrel who had been the
cause of her trouble; but for her, poor
girl, I had only sympathy and love.
"Annie," I said, "I must know every
thing; no part of the truth, but the
whole; then, perhaps, I can help you.
But first, about this marriage. Now, tell
me the whole story."
She obeyed me, and I listened in deep
agitation. Simply, clearly, she described
to me all that had taken place, from the
day she had first left her home.
She had loved George Redruth sincere'
ly, and apparently he had returned her
affection. He bad deputized Johnson to
take her away, had later joined her, and
a marriage ceremony had been perform
ed. He had sworn her to secrecy, on ac
count of his proud mother. Later, when
he had tired of her, be had told her the
marriage was a farce. The rest I knew.
CHAPTER XXVI.
My experience of the world was mopt
rudimentary; I knew next to nothing of
Its great crimes. That any human being
calling himself a man could be capable
of cold-blooded treachery to a woman
whom he promised to love was almost in
credible to me. I was aghast at the rec
ord of George Redruth's evil doing, I
was leas amazed at Annie's extraordin
ary patience under wrongs so monstrous,
The man had deserved no mercy.
"You say that you went through
ceremony of marriage?" I said. "Annie,
I believe you are his wife after all!"
"In the sight of God I am. But,
Hugh, dear, if it bad been a real mar
riage, he would never dare to wed
again."
"Such a ecoundrel would dare any
thing," I cried, fiercely. "It it well you
came to me, for there is yet time. He
shall do you justice! If he refuses to do
so, I will teach him such a lesson that be
will never again dare to hold his head up
before the world 1"
Leaving Annie to partake of some sim
ple refreshment, I walked down to inter
view the mine's solicitor, and Informed
III in that domestic circumstances neces
sitated my return to St. Gurlott's for
several days. He assented to my de
parture, making me promise, however,
to return as soon as possible.
Early in the afternoon, we left Owen
dovey in the country cart, John Rudd
driving, and I seated by Annie's aide.
It was a long journey; traveling nearly
II night, at the rate of seven or eight
miles an hour, we did not sight the old
village till It was almost daybreak.
"Annie," I said, at we paused at tin
cottage gate, "whatever happens, we
must keep this from your father. For
hi sake, and for hi take only, wa must
act very cautiously,"
Tb door waa unfastened; for, Indeed,
lock and key were In little request at St
Ourlott'a, which wa peopled with hon
est folk. We walked In, and, entering
tOia kitchen, saw my uncle mdlaf by
OQQ i.
the light of a candle. I glanced at the
book before him; it waa the old Bible,
with hia own name, his wife's, and
Annie's, with the dates of marriage and
of birth, on the fly-leaf. We entered, but
he did not look up. But when I drew
nearer and spoke to him, he started up
with a cry, pale as death, with the sweat
standing in great beads upon bis wriukled
brow.
"Who be thar?" he cried. "Help!"
"What, don't you know me?" 1 said.
forcing a laugh "It Is I, Hugh Trelaw
uey, and Annie, your daughter."
Hugh! Anme! he repeated, drawing
his hand nervously across hia Una.
"Why, saw it be! Why did 'ee cooiu
upon me so sudden like? I did not hear
ee."
He closed the page nervously, as if
fearing that we should see what portion
of the book he had been reading. Annie
stooped over him and kissed him tender
ly; he looked up with a faint smile, aud
patted her cheek.
"Hugh, my lad," he said presently, "I
wish you had never left the miue. New
overseer be a chnp fro' Wales, and naw
manner o" good. All he thinks o' is to
save money for the company, aud he
dawn't go down hissen once in a se'n
night. Out atewng to the blue gallery,
the sea is safe to come in, tome o' these
days."
' "I always said so," I returned. "It'a
a shame that nothing has been done."
"Saw it be, lad. I spoke to Measter
Jarge about it last neet, and he ha'
promised to take a last look at 'un before
he gangs away."
As soon as possible, I left the cottage,
to think out the situation for myself.
Now that I had come home, I feh in
full force the awkwardness of my posi
tion. How waa I to take firm ground
in Annie'a name, and yet keep the truth
from my uncle, the shock to whose al
ready shattered system I so much dread
ed? From every point of view, indeed,
the proclamation of the truth would be
a calamity; yet it must be made, for
Annie's sake, for Madeline's. My only
course was to proceed as cautiously as
pomible, first sounding the main actor
in the drama and ascertaining what he
had to say in his own defense. With this
view I determined to go at once to Red
ruth House.
It was a wild, windy day, with fre
quent showers of rain. As I approached
the avenue, I heard the dreary "sough"
of the wind in the trees, and my thoughts
went back to the day when I, a boy, met
George Redruth, a boy, in that very
place. - .
I walked boldly np to the front door
and rang the bell. In a few moments
the door was opened by a man-servant
"Is yonr master at home?" I asked.
"Mr. Redrnth is in the drawing room,"
replied the fellow. "What name shall I
say?"
"I will announce myself," I answered.
stepping into the hall. "Stand out of
the way," and, placing my hand on the
drawing room door, I threw it open. The
man tell back in astonishment, and I
strode in.
CHAPTER XXVII.
I looked keenly about me, to discover
who the occupants might be. I could see
only two George Redruth and his moth
er. The old lady, looking very whtite
and stately In her robe of black velvet.
sat bolt upright in a quaint oak chair,
working at some fancy work. Near to
her was her son, lounging carelessly in
a low easy chair, an open book upon his
knee. He certainly looked very hand
some in his spotless clothes and snowy
linen; and I wondered little that his
mother's eyes rested upon him with such
a look of affection. George Redruth was
not a man who bore upon his person the
impress of his soul. He had a fair face
and a specious manner; and any stranger
looking at him would have believed him
utterly incapable of cruelty or wrong
doing.
My unceremonious entry startled both
mother aud son. They both looked at
me with an expression which was by no
means amiable. They both asked what
my business was there that night. I
turned to Redruth and said, as quietly as
I could:
"My business is with you, sir. What
I have to say bad better be suid to you
alone."
He moved uneasily In his seat, and
darted at me from under his brows a
look of bitter hatred. I thought his face
grew very pale, but he made an effort
to preserve bis cold manner.
"You are very mysterious," be replied;
"but since you have thought It worth
your while to force your way upon us
as you have done, you had better say
your say and go, before I order the ser
vants to turn you out.
"You had better be careful," I replied
"Once more I warn you what you have
to near uau neuer do neard by you
alone.
He made a movement forward, and
I was about to follow him, when there
wa another Interruption of a most un
expected kind. Old Mrs. Redruth rose,
and, inking a stately motion with her
band, said:
"You shall not leave me, George. "If
he meant to insult you, let him do so
before your mother's face!"
"I insult him?" I said. "You don't
know what you are saying. I have re
turned to my home to obtain justice; to
force a bitter wrong to be righted. I am
here for that now. Whatever happens,
no blame can be attached to me. I am
willing to speak to hlui alone; but speak
I mean to before I leave this house to
night. Tell me it it true that in two
days you propose to wed Mis Graham?"
"Yes," answered hit mother; "It is
true. Now, sir, what have you to say?'
"This: that you son had better think
well before he goes to lead that lady to
the altar; because he knows as well at I
that that marriage can never be."
"George, what doe ha mean?" asked
the old lady, gazing from one to another
in trembling agitation.
"For heaven's aake, mother, keep
calm I" said Heorge Redruth, who was
himself terribly agitated, then be turned
again to me. "Trelawney, leave the
house," be tatd. "If yon have anything
to tty to me, teek m again; my mother
la ill, and a scene such as this promises
to b will kill her I"

ih, other folk must hour.
I am here to
day to ask for justice; you best know
why and for whom. Do you mean to
doltr
"You speak In riddles, which I fail to
understand."
"I am speaking of the woman whose
heart you have brokeu aud whose life
you have destroyed; in the name of my
cousin, Annie l'endragon, I refuse to al
low this marriage to go on!"
I expected to see him cower before
this blow, but I was mistaken; he was
evidently prepared for anything 1 might
say.
"My good man," he said, coolly, "you
are raving, or worse. Yon take. 1 know,
a very tender Interest In Miss Graham's
welfare, aud think you will bo able to
degrade me in her eyes. But you are
mistaken. Both Miss Graham and my
mothr know me too well to believe one
word of what yon say!"
lKi you deny," I said, "the story
which 1 have heard from my cousiu's
lips?"
"What your cousin may or -may not
have told you is no concern of mine.
What Is she to me?"
"She is your wife," I returned.
Still he retained his cold, impassive
manner; but the old lady looked at him
with troubled eyes. It was nothing to
her that he had broken a heart. But
the fear that her darling had been made
to link himself to one beueath him was
terrible to her.
"George," she cried imploringly, "what
does he mean?"
"I mean, madam," I replied, "that it
was your ton who bronght all the trouble
to our home. Through him, and him
alone, murder hat been done; and simple
trusting hearts have been broken. Let
him go to the altar with Miss Graham;
and, so sure as he stands living before
me now, I will denounce him before them
all."
"You villain! do you mean to threaten
me?" exclaimed Redruth.
"And if I do," I returned, "I don't
threaten what I can't perform. My cou
sin has been silent hitherto because the
wished to spare you; she has returned
good for evil, cruelty with kindness; but
now that the has spoken now that I
know the truth I am determined that
she stall receive justice. I say again
she is your wife; if not by the laws of
man, at least in the sight of God; and so
long as she Uvea you shall not wed an
other woman!
I paused and looked at him; his face
was quite livid.
"Hear me, Trelawney," he said. "The
story you have fixed upon me is one
tissue of lies. If you say it is not, bring
your witnesses to prove it; If you cannot
do so, your fabrication falls to the
ground. I know nothing of your cousin,
and I am not to be driven through fear
into marriage with a peasant girl. Wom
en of her class are given to lying; she
seems no exception to the rule!"
"Coward and liar!" I exclaimed. Ut
terly beside myself, I raised my clenched
fist, and should have struck him to the
ground. There was a shriek and a heavy
thud upon the floor. Terrified and heart
sick, I drew back, and gazed with wild
eyes upon the figure of the old lady,
which lay, apparently lifeless, at my feet.
In a moment a woman's figure was be
side her, kneeling on the floor, and bend
Ing forward with tender solicitude ovos
the wrinkled face. It waa Madeline,
here she had come from I could not
tell, she seemed to have arisen like
pirit from the earth. She was pale, butlCapen In tills way:
quite composed. With tender hands she
smoothed back the gray hair; she dipped
her fingers in the bowl of water which
George Redruth held, and drew them
cross the wrinkled brow; she pressed
er winn red lips to the whito cheek,
and murmured gently, "Aunt, dear aunt,
open your eyes: it is I, Madeline!"
For a time the old lady lay motionless
I standing by, unable to move hand or
foot, but feeling nothing but pity for her.
Suddenly she stirred slightly and heaved
slgb; then Madeline "raised her eyes
and fixed them upon my face.
Will you go, please?" she said, "for
her sake. If she wakes and sees you it
will be terrible."
That was enough; I was to obey her
wIhIi; so, utterly weary and heart-broken,
I left the house.

SENTIMENT 8HUT OUT
COEDS DO NOT EASILY FALL. IN
LOVE WITH STUDENTS.
Marriages Between Them at Universi
ties Are by No Means Numerous, Ac
cording to Statistics-Familiarity
Hhowa Then Each Other's Vaults.
Some additional light is thrown
upon the recent discovery that there
are very few marriages between grad
uates of coeducational Institutions In
till State by the expression of the
view of President Eluiex II. Cnpen, of
Tufta College, writes a Boston corre
spondent President Capon's facts and figures
disprove the popular Idea that the con
stant meeting of young men aud wom
en lu the class room and on the
campus eacll day for four years at co
educational colleges must lead to the
formation of friendship that can end
only In matrimony. Tufts College ad
mits men nnd women on a footing of
equality in all courses. Its otllclal rec
ords show that the percentage of mar
riages among students Is small.
In the five years preceding 1000
Tufts College shows only two such
marriages. The reasons for this state
ai,f affairs are explained by 'resident
The students, both men and wom
en, have little time for sentimentali
ties. I cannot speak for other insti
tutions, but at Tufts coeducation haa
not stimulated marriage.
"In the ten years that women have
been admitted as students here there
have been but two women who have
married Tufts men, one of these wom
en a graduate and the other a student
who left without finishing her course.
Women were first admitted In the
fall of and the first class to grad
uate women was thnt of 1M!M1. Of this
class there were seven women who re
ceived degrees, two of whom are mar
ried. Both wero married a long time
after graduation ami to men whose ac
quaintance they made after leaving
college.
In 1807 five women were gradu
ated, none of whom Is miirried. Ihe
class of i8 had seven women, one of
whom 1 married. Her husband Is not
a college man.
"In 18!)D fifteen women received de
grees and only two, to my knowledge,
are married and neither of them to a
college mate. The class of 1000, the
last of wluch such record bave been
kept, graduated eighteen women, four
of whom have been married, one of
them to a Tuft man.
"Beside theso women mentioned
there have been alx or seven women
who bave entered Tufta and dropped
out before completing the course and
have been married. One of these mar
ried a Tuft man.
"The numerical ratio of women In
the college at the present time la alxnit
one to four. About one half of the
women student live In the college dor
mitorie, and the other half coine from
their own home daily.
"These latter naturally have their
own companion, mainly from their
circle of acquaintance outside of the
college. We have a good deal of social
life at Tuft with the fraternities and
college function, but the young men
rarely go off the bill to get their young
women for such occasion. Yet such
(octal Intercourse, a you see ha not
led to serious result.
"Thl small marriage ratio among
the women graduate of our college Ls
mainly due to the fact that they are
here for the purposo of getting an edu
cation by which they can support
themselves by teaching or various oth
er of the learned professions. Women
of this sort axe not so likely to think
of matrimony as those who have noth
ing else to do after flnUhlng thetr
course as students.
"Tb decline of marriage of college
women ls no more marked proportion
ately than among business women
Many of both classes art preferring
to Mr on their own resource to turn
ing to matrimony a a means of sup
port The womaa In a coeducational
college Is just like her sister In the
girl' college,
"These resuft which are shown at
Tufta may not be borne out by the
Western colleges which had had co
education for a much longer period
than we have had It, and they may be
better able to Judge of It true results."
The student at Tuft have explana
tion of the condition also. The men
hold, on the one hand, that the sexes
under the condition grow to know
each other" peculiarities too well to
fall In love with each other, while the
women In their turn say Uiat the true
reasou la that romance Is wholly want
ing. One of the professors at the college
supplemented President Capen's re
mark by saying thut In his opinion
the veil of mystery which the class
room removes Is, after all, the prlino
factor In bringing men and women to
gether. "There la an old anylng," he con
tinued, "that If you want to cure a
lovesick couple let tliem eat three
