THE EVENING STAR.
When »unset light
Gives place to night
On mountain tops aiar,
With light more soft,
In heaven aloft
Appears the evening star.
Its beauty seems.
As high it gleams.
To lull the heart to rest
We mourn the day,
But gladly say
We love the starlight best.
When gtfeved in heart.
Though ’tis our part
To know more night than day,
The star of hope
Forbids us mope,
And cheers with soothing ray.

IIS. DRISCOLL had a mind of
her own.
Some uncharitable people
went so fur as to say that If she had
not had so much mind her husband
might have been living to-day. Be that
as It may, lie tiled and left lier sole
mistress of a handsome property', with
no one to oppose her will.
She adopted one of his nieces, and
loved lier as well as she could love
any one but herself.
The niece grew up a winsome lassie,
and had lovers, as maidens will.
Luckily her choice was her aunt's as
well, and the day was set for her mar­
riage with Harry Winship without op
position, the only condition being that
they should return to Mrs. Driscoll's
home after a brl f wedding tour.
“Well, Kate,” said the stately lady,
the day before the wedding, * every­
thing Is ready, ami I must say that 1
never saw preparations more complete
—not even for your uncle’s funeral,
poor man! I always meant to give you
a handsome marriage portion, so get
your hat we’ll go to the bank.
What girl would delay under similar
circumstances?
The carriage was speedily ordered,
and soon stopped before the bank.
Except the bans officials, there was
In the building only George Travis, one
of Kate's discarded suitors, who was
getting an Insignificant check cashed.
Mrs. Driscoll was not slow to see an
opportunity to Hutter her sails, as her
worthy husband had been accustomed
to say.
Drawing her check book she smiling
ly wrote a cheek for £2,000 and pre­
sented It to the cashier.
’’Payable to Miss Kate- a marriage
portion, I presume. Ah, very gener­
ous of you! Miss Kate, 1 congratulate
you,” said the cashier. “Shall I make
the new book In your own name?”
"She wants no book at least not
yet,” retorted Mrs. Driscoll, sharply.
“When I give a thing. I give It. 1 want
good, solid money for that check-
bright, yellow gold.”
“But why you live fully a mile
from a neighbor. Have you do you
think of the temptation?” he said, hesi­
tatingly.
“Did I ask your advice?” snapped
Mrs. Driscoll. “1 am able to take care
of my own property, and, If It will not
break the bank, 1 want It In gold.”
“Certainly, madam. My conscience
Is clear If you wake up to tlml yourself

bunk can pay ten times that sum nt

to which Mrs. Driscoll listened in curt
■Hence.
The cashier went Into the vault, clos
Ing the door behind him.
George Travis, having counted the
money received on his cheek, went out
without a glance at the two Indies.
“There! Now I reckon Travis begins
to realise what he has lost,” nodded
Mrs. Driscoll.
Kato blushed slightly.
“But, mint," she said, uneasily,
“wouldn't It be better for me to take a
book with the money left to my credit?
Harry will not be here until tomorrow,
and and thiuk of the risk! It Is un-
M fe."
“How long Is It since I came to be
told my duty by a miss of 18?" breath­
ed Mrs. Driscoll, scornfully. “What a
coward you are! If you don’t want
the motley, say so, and I'll let It re­
main where It 1s. If you do want It,
hold your tongue, and help me take
care of it until I can give you both Into
Harry Wlnshlp'a keeping."
Further conversation was prevented
by the cashier’s return.
He carried a strong Iron I hix .
“Count It!" commanded Mrs. Driscoll,
One l>y one the golden coins were
Counted under her admiring eyes.
"There, that Is money! That Is like
a wedding gift!" she ejaculated, In a
satisfied tone.
“Bettei let me give you a receipt for
It and put it Into the safe to night,”
Suggested the cashier.
"Flit it Into my carriage!" was the
Sharp order to the bank porter.
The man oileyed and watched with a
puzzled face the carriage out of sight.
“Hie lieate all 1 ever saw," he said.
"I don’t wonder her husband died."
Meanwhile Mrs. Driscoll returned
home well satisfied with the world and
berself In particular.
She had had her own way.

“Thanks, aunt! Iron Is as soft as

Kate.
"You needn’t He upon that side of the
bed at all.” was the cool reply.
"There's a man in the kitchen ns says

days." said Norah, the servant, appear­
ing at tlie deaf.
i
“The farm Is only a mile further an.
Send him about bls business," answer­
ed her mistress.
Norah went out.
Soon a figure clothed in rags went by
tlie open window.
Tlie man turned and shook his clinch­
ed fist nt the astonished lady.
“Of all things! The Impudent thing,”
she gasped.
“Oh, but, aunt. I’m sure he has heard
all that we said about that horrid
money!" faltered Kate.
Mrs. Driscoll's face told the concern
which she felt, but she turned her back
upon her niece and took up a book.
Darkness came.
Tlie lights in the house were extin­
guished at tlie usual time.
Kate could not sleep. In vain she
counted slowly from one hundred to
one, and :»ild tue letters of the alpha­
bet backward.
She heard the village clock slowly
strike the hour of midnight, then one,
two, and three.
Kate’s apartment was dark, but the
moon shone ulmly into her aunt's room
Just across the hall.
Suddenly a form stood In the door­
way, then vanished within.
Was it the tramp? Was that some­
thing In ills hand a knife?
Kate stole softly through the door­
way. listening breathlessly. Then she
darted Into a small room, near Mrs.
Driscoll's door.
Suddenly tlie door was noiselessly
closed, and a man stood so near her
hiding-place that she could hear liis
hurried breathing.
The faint odor of chloroform tol l wl>y
the door was closed.
What if he gave an overdose?
Kate loved the stern woman, and
notwithstanding her timidity, that
thought nerved her to action.
She sprang from the room with a
shrill cry, clint lilng both hands In the
hair of tlie Intruder. It is needless to
say that lie wns startled out of what
little common sense he possessed.
lie threw her violently aside with a
muttered oath and tied. But he left a
generous lock of hair In her hands.
Her head struck a corner of the door,
in falling, and It was dawn when she
awoke to full consciousness of what
had happened.
Womanlike, she rushed to see if the
iron box was still safe. It had not been
disturbed. Then she threw open the
door of Mrs. Driscoll’s room. That lady
wns unconscious, but breathing evenly.
Kate's courage returned.
Silently she opened the window, let­
ting the fresh morning air draw freely
through the room. Then she crept Into
her own bed to await developments.
Before sunrise Mrs. Driscoll awoke.
"Mercy ou us!” she screamed. “No­
rah did not shut the window last night.
1 shall get my death of cold. Kate!”
But Kate did not stir until her name
had been called several times; then she
answered drowsily.
“Get up, child! It’s your wedding
day, too. and 1 In danger of pneumo­
nia.” called her aunt.
Kate shut the window, and helped
the Irate lady to dress, touching her
hair with dainty, soothing lingers as
she arranged It.
The household arose and went about
Its tasks. Visitors came and went.
Kate kept her secret well. The cere­
mony was over which made her a wife.
The nrldal dress was exchanged for a
traveling cortume.
"1 shall take the Iron box to the bank

said as she hade her good-by.
“As you please. I've had my say

No one knew of the tragedy which
did not take place In the silent watches
of the night.
No one knew until Kate, nestling In
her husband's clasp as the train sped
onward, told him the story in her own
way ano time.
"But the hair- did you save It? It

Ten Thons mil l oot Limit of Depth.
Mining engineers agree that the limit
to which shafts may be sunk Into the
earth with the present machinery and
equipments Is 10.000 feet. The deep­
est shaft ever dug Is the one now In
existence In one of the copper mines
ou Lake Superior. It has a sheer
depth of 5.000 feet. Dr. A. C. Lane,
the assistant geologist for Michigan,
lu an article In Mineral Industry on
"How Deep Can We Mine?" places the
probable limit at 10.000 feet. He sees,
however, that enormously rich de-
|s>slts might lead tuan to dig to 15,000
feet with profit. The element of dan­
ger Is not considered lu these calcula­
tions. In conclusion he says. "The
present knowledge cannot foresee
reaching a depth of 20,000 feet."
