The mciv.piit came ne «r for the Polish .j.iul2C«]jfe* io uiwthe doctor's statement it appeared she fcad only a bad quarter of an hour to live. Her artack had been sudden, and iht grandchildren she loved to scold could not be present

She had already battled through the great wave of pain and was drifting beyond the boundaries of her earthly refuge. The nurses, forgetting the trouble her querulousness and overweening dietary scruples had cost them, hung over the bed in which the shriveled entity lay. They did not know that she was living again through the ono great episode of her life.

Nearly 40 years back, when, though already hard upon 70, and a widow, a Polish village was all her horizon, she received a lei ter. It arrived on the eve of Sabbath, on a day of rainy summer. It was from her little boy—her only boy -—who kept a country inn 3? miles away and had a family. She opened the letter witl. feverish anxiety. Her son-— her kaddisb—was the apple of her eye. The grandmother eagerly perused the Hebrew script, from right to left. Then we jlnier«s overcnme her, and she nearly felL

Embedded casually enough in the four pages was a passage that stood out for her in letters of blood: "I am not feeling very well lately. The weather is so oppressive, and the nights are misty. But it v.efh'vig serious. My digestion is a little out of order, that's all." There were rubles for her in the letter, irat she let them fall to the floor unheeded. Panic, fear, traveling quicker than the tardy post of those days, had brought rumor of a sudden outbreak of cholera in her son's district Already alarm for her boy had surged about her heart all day. The letter confirmed her wont apprehensions. Even if the first touch of the cholera fiend was not actually on him whey he wrote, still he was, by his own confession, in that condition in which the disease takes easiest grip. By this time he was on a bed of sickness—nay, perhaps on his deathbed, if not dead. Even in those days the littlo grandmother had lived beyond the common span. She had seen many people die, and knew that the angel of death does not go about his work leisurely. In an epidemic his hands are too full to enable him to devote much attention to each case. Maternal instinct togged at her heartstrings, drawing her toward her boy. The end of the letter seemed impregnated with special omen: "Come and see me soon, dear little motLi^.. 1be unable to get to you for some time." Yes, she must go at aaoo. Who knew but that it would be the last time she would look upon his face?

But then came a terrible thought to give her pause. The Sabbath was just "in" a moment ago. Driving, riding, or any manner of journeying was prohibited during the nest 34 hours. Frantically she reviewed the situation. Religion permitted the violation of the Sabbath on one condition—if life was to be saved. By no stretch of logic could she delude herself into the belief that her son's recovery hinged upon her presence. Nay, analyzing the case with the cruel remorselessness of a scrupulous conscience, she saw his very illness was only a plausible hypothesis. Na To go to him now were beyond question to profane the Sabbath.

And yet, beneath all the reasoning, her conviction that he was sick unto death, her resolve to set out at once never wavered. After an agonizing struggle she compromised. She could not go by cart That would be to make others work into the bargain, and would, moreover, involve a financial transaction. She must walk! Sinful as it was to transgress the limit of 3,000 yards beyond her village, the distance fixed by rabbinical law, there was no help for it And of all the forms of traveling walk-

"The little mother is on the way." ing was surely the least sinfuL The Holy One, blessed be he, would know she did not mean to work. Perhaps in his mercy he would make allowance for an old won. who had never profaned his rest day before.

And GO that, very evening, having made a hasty meal and lodged the precious letter in her bosom, the little grandmother girded up her loins to walk the seven and thirty miles. No staff took she with her, for to carry such came imilfir the Talmudical definition of "work." Neither could she carry an umbrella, though it was a season of ntfn- Mile after mile she strode briskly toward the pallid faco which lay so far beyond the horizon and yet ever shone before her eyes like a guiding star. "I am coming, my lamb," she muttered. "The little mother is on the way."

It was a muggy night. The sky, flushed with a weird hectic glamour, seemed to bang over the earth like a palL The feces that lined the roadway were daonilril in a draggling v*jpo*. At mid-

and almost lame. But she walked on. Almost half the journey was yet to do. She had nothing with her to eat. Food, too, was an illegal burden, nor could she buy any on the holy day. She said her Sabbath morning prayer walking, hoping God would forgive the disroisix et. The recital gave her partial oblivion of her pains. As she passed through a village the dreadful rumor of cholera TY:- confirmed. It gave wirgs to her feet for ten minutes. Then bodily weakness was stronger than everything else, aud sho had to lean against the bushes on the outskirts of the village. It was nearly noon. A passing beggar gave her apiece of bread. Fortunately it was tin buttered, so she could eat it with oulv minor qualms, lest it had touched any unclean thing. She resumed her journey, but the rest had only made her feet move painfully and reluctantly. She would have liked to bathe them in a brook, but that, too, was forbidden. iook the letter from her bosom and reperused it and whipped up her flagging strength with a cry of, "Courage, my lamb: the little mother is on the way.'' T:.en the leaden clouds melted into sharp lines of rain, which beat into her face, refreshing her for the first few minutes, but soon wetting her to the skin, iiiaiti'jq her sopped garments a heavier burden, and reducing the pathway to mud that clogged still further her feeble footsteps. In the teeth of the wind and the driving shower she limped on. A fresh anxiety consumed her now—would she have strength to hold, out? Every moment her pace lessened. She was moving like a snaiL And the slower she went the more vivid grew her prescience of what awaited her at the journey's end. Would she even hear his dying word? Perhaps terrible thought—she would only be in time to look upon his dead face! Perhaps that was how God would punish her for her desecration of the holy day. "Take heart, my lamb," she wailed. "Do not die yet The little mother comes."

The rain stopped. The sun came out hot and fierce and dried her hands and face, then made them stream again with perspiration. Every inch won was torture now, but the brave feet toiled on. Bruised and swollen and crippled, they toiled on. There was a dying voice— very far off yet, alas—that called to her, and as she dragged herself along sho cried: "lam coming, my lamb. Take heart! The little mother is on the way. Courage 1 I shall look upon thy face.

wmmmrm

shall find thee alive!" Once a wagoner observed her plight and offered her a lift, but she shook her head steadfastly. The endless afternoon wore on. She crawled along the forest way, stumbling every now and then from sheer faintness and tearing her hands and face in the brambles of the roadside. At last the cruel sun waned, and reeking mists rose from the forest pools. And still the long miles stretched away, and still 6he plodded on, torpid from overexertion, scarcely conscious, taking each step only because she had taken the preceding. Fmm time to time her lips mumbled, "Take heart, my lamb I am coming." The Sabbath was "out" ere, broken and bleeding, and all but swooning, the little grandmother crawled up to her son's inn, on the border of the forest. Her heart was cold with fatal forebodings. There was none of the usual Saturday night litter of Polish peasantry about the door. The sound of many voices, weirdly intonating a Hebrew hymn, floated out into the night A man in a caftan opened the door and mysteriously raised his forefinger to bid her enter without noise. The little grandmother saw into the room behind. Her daughter-in-law and her grandchildren were seated on the floor—the seat of mourners. "Blessed be the true Judge," she said, snd rent the skirt of her dress. "When did he die?"

Yesterday. We had to bury him hastily ere the Sabbath eame in." The little grandmother lifted tip her quavering voice and joined the hymn: "I

will sing a new song unto thee, O Qod 1 Upon a harp of ten strings will I

sing praises unto thee."

The nurses could not understand what sudden inflow of strength «nu impulse raised the mummified fig" i.-fo a sitting posture. The ,'ittle ^nc/aotner thrust a shriveled cla .v int. _wr peaked, shrunken bosom and disw out a paper, crumpled and yellow as iierseli, covered with strange, crabbed hit Mglyphics, whose hue had long since faurd. She held it close to her bleared eyes. A beautiful light came into them and illumined the million puckered face. The lips moved faintly. "I am coming, my lamb," she mumbled. "Courage! The little mother is on the way. I shall look on thy face.

shall find thee alive." THE END.

"Mamma Is Here Now."

It was in the Pennsylvania station the other morning. In one of the waiting room seats there sat a tired, worn looking man with a little boy of perhaps 8 in his arms. The little fellow's shoes were only half buttoned, his hair Was awkwardly combed, and his stockings were awry. At the man's side sat two little girls of perhaps 5 and 7. Their frocks were buttoned crooked, but the younger had her hair combed in a pitiful attempt at curls. The man kept glancing at the clock. By and by the elder little girl spoke. "Is mamma here yet?" she asked. "Let us see," the man said.

The forlorn looking quartet rose and Btraggled out to the platform. There come men were just lifting along pine box from a wagon. The man looked at It a moment. "Come," he said, "let's go back. Mamma is here now. "—Washington Post.

ONLY A RAVINE FIRE.

Smoke in the Olympic Monntalaa Not From tt Volcano.

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash., Oct. 29.— The exploring party which went into the Olympic mountains seeking evidences of alleged volcanic fires has returned after an unsuccessful trip. They reached the summit of the first range and ascertained that the smoke and flames emanated from a deep ravine leading down from the mountain peak and which was filled with dead timber.

In the same ravine is a lead of lignite coal, which was ignited, and as the fire followed up the vein, caving bowlders falling earth caused the flames to ascend similar to volcanic fires. In the last few days the flames almost subsided, though vast volumes of smoke continue to roll upward. After convincing themselves or the cause and origin of the fires they hurriedly returned to Port Townsend.

ALASKAN BOUNDARY LINB.

Congreaa Muat Aet at Onee to PreSea* f:v Oar Right a.

NEW YORK, Oct. 29.—A special to The World from Washington says: The Alaskan boundary line question will be forced to a speedy termination by the action of Canada, if not by some diplo matic move on the part of Secretary of State Olney. It is announced that the Dominion government intends to direct the mounted police to assume control of the whole frontier alon^ the Canadian boundary of Alaska, with power to collect customs duties and to hold courtmartials to try criminal cases.

The American and Canadian boundary liri- are in conflict as to 7.3 miles of territory along the Yukon river on the east and west line. The disputed territory embraces the mouth of Forty Mile creek, to which access is had to the valuable placer mines at the head of that fctreum. The Uauadian police, in carrying out their ins."/actions, will doubtless assume jurisdiction up to the lines of the Canadian survey, r.nd several thousand American miners who will be in that region shortly will be subject to their aut.l'

Sc Olney, it is thought, in view of the or less serious character of the situation, will make some effort to bring up the dispute at the Behring sea convention next week.

In case of trouble along the frontier in the Yukon mining region the United States district attorney at Sitka has the authority to employ deputy marshals to preserve law and order, but it would take several months for the news of the disturbance to reach him at Sitka and for his orders to be carried into effect. Officials of the department of justice say that he would not have the power to place men along the line for police duty or for any other purpose except on special occasions, such as a riot. It this be the case prompt action by congress this winter will be necessary to remedy the difficulties, and it is understood that a bill will be introduced to provide Alaska with a more perfect form of govermnent.
