Prince Arthur was then only a boy of fifteen years of age, and of so delicate a constitution that fears were entertained by many that his wife must soon don the widow's weeds.

"No; I don't make out to find much time for it before I get home o' nights," said Caleb. "Anything doin'?" "Yes; they are having a hot time in Chicago and Pullman. The strike is spreading all over the country on sympathy lines." "Reckon it'll get down to us in any way?" queried the iron-master. "You can't tell. I'd be a little easy with Ludlow and his outfit on that wage scale, if I were you."
Modesty is a poor man's wealth, but as we grow substantial in the world, Patroon, one can afford to begin to speak truth of himself, as well as of his neighbor."

A sharp explosion beneath, and fragments of fire flying upwards through a hatch, interrupted his words. Plunges into the sea, and a rush of the people to the boats, followed.
