Clang, clang, clang, rang out on tl still midnight nir the bell of a iirc-engii as it daubed swiftly along the stony strec and the horses plunging and snorting i though scenting the danger ah etui. The steamer rocked from side to sidi its great black smoke-stack emitting shower of sparks, looking moro like mighty helper of that grim monarc Fire than its most powerful enemy. But wliut is the destination of tli guardian of public safety, that it daslu so recklessly along? Is it in the direction of the palaces < the rich and powerful? Are the live of those favored children of Fortune ei dangored? No! the destination is a far differei one. It is to the homes of the poor, tl abode of the toiling mnnsos, where, cj joying silently their well-earned res sleep on the honest sons of labor, tl strong right arm of the nation. The red glare in the distance grov brighter as the scene .of the conflajrr | tion is nearcd. Tho panting engir ' halts suddenly at a little distance froi one of those tall brick buildings of whit1 I there tire so many in the great city, dij nified by the name of "flat." but whei I dozens of families arc huddled togctlu f in contracted uuiuters, with not half tli . comforts that tliu wealthy lavish upc i their horses. f Now, the scene is ono of activity, an . though the fire has only fairly started, , vast crowd is assembled, gazing ino j hungrily at the fire, which grows fierci r every moment. The occupants of the building a rushing wildly about, striving to kce . together the few things they have save i from the Humes, and counting their li j tie ones to see that none are lost. , Suddenly there is a commotion in tl j throng of onlookers, as a white-bain and feeble woman forces her way throut the crowd. There is a fierce look in her eyes, hi . hair is streaming in the wind and In , clothing is disarranged. ? Pushing past the sturdy officers wli are engaged in keening the fire lines ii . tact, she reaches the nearest firema I who is the foreman of one of the engii ; companies, liaising her thin, bare ar i and pointing her bony linger in the t! - redtion of one of the extreme uper wii ; (lows she cried aloud as her shrill voi< i mug out above the din and confusion: ? "There! there! unJn that room she i i Klaie, my heart s love. Will no 01 I save my child? She is sick and helplcs For God's sake save her." A thrill of horror almost paralyzed tl terrified listeners. The strong voice < the foreman rang clearly out: "Run up^tlie ladders, boys, there's , girl in thatYoom" (pointing to a windo i on the to]) floor). "Who'll volunteer i ; save her?" "Come, men, don't hesitate; if there , one of you who's willing to risk his lif ' let him speak." The words were scarcely uttered wlit i Tom Bradford, the youngest man in tl J company, sprang forward. To run up the ladder was but the woi , of an instant. With the aid of a era , pling ladder which was passed to liir j the brave fireman reached the windo I and in a moment had disappeared witlii the fiery furnace. The smoke now began to nour fro j the window, gradually increasing in vc P time, now and then augmented by a 1' - riil tongue of llame that leaped far 01 into the deep darkness of the night. r When the smoke and flames we t seen pouring from the window throuj; [ which gallant Tom Bradford hi .. plunged to save the sick and lielple 1 one within, a prayer went up from tl \ -hearts of the anxious watchers belo for his safety. The smoke grew dens and denser, and the. fierce flames darti out of it sending a challenge to tl brave workers below. It was no !- found necessary to take away the la J ders from the front of the building, tin s cutting ofT the avenue of escape fro the bravo boy within. Every clfort w 's now being made to confine the fire the burning building, ami streams water were constantly playing on t! r. walls of those adjoining. Tho fier - flames lit up brilliantly the surroundi scene and presented a picture both (t dilating and terrible. Suddenly tho dim outline of a hum form was discovered making its w carefully along tho roof, while the II bujstforth with renewed fury, and sho ed to the excited watchers below t figure of Tom Bradford clasping in 1 arms a human form enveloped in whi When the frightful peril of the situatii had been fully impressed on the visi of the startled spectators, a mighty she rang out on the midnight air, in whi the heroic firemen joined. The prayers of the watchers had be answered. Cautiously along the edge Jhe roof the gallant Bradford forged 1 way, and when he reached an openi in the adjoining building strong i willing bauds wero ready to receive J precious burden. Waiting only a moment to see tl the rescued one was tenderly cared f Tom Bradford was again at the post duty. In a few moments tho crowd 1 law was startled by a sullen roar an< heavy shower of sparks flew heaveuwa The roof of the building had fallen One by one the engines rattled off the fire came undetrontrol. Far up in tho sky a great cloud black suioko hung like a pall over t si?ot as though loath to leave tho see of its late triumph. Elsie O'Neill recovored slowly fr( hnr ilhiPtw. go much airaravated by t fair and shock of that terrible nfgli iieril, and her constant thought was her bravo rcscucr. Not a day passed that did not bri Tom Bradford to her door, if only tcf quire solicitously thoprogress of the \ patient. They are married now, a often when Tom has a day off, they wi p?st Kiflle's former home, and while citing the story of that dreadful nigh! their two rosy-cheeked children tl paint out the wel 1-remombered wind through which Tom Bradford went, ]! hajM to death, but to find instead haj ness and love. _ Wlmt CongrcHK U WulUiij; For, Pittsburgh Times.
