EsGaeaAnce OS an Cid Couple.


The following somewhat remarkable MARIA
tive is related by a western lady, now on a
visit to this city from Mariposa. She is her
self character She has crossed the plains
twice-GrSt in 1919, during which her hrs
band pcrishcd-and is the first American lady
who returned to the East by way of the 18TH
mus of Panama. She is genuine heroine,
a fine specimen Of stout -hcarted western wo-
manhood and her adventures in the wilds of
the unpeoplcd West have been numerous and
exciting. If the good folks Of Mariposa have
missed lady from their neighborhood, they
are hereby apprised that she is comtor ably
located at the boarding house Of Mrs. Nesbit,
on the corner of Montgomery and Sutter-sts.,
and will not return to the mountains until
Holmes Of the Gazette ceases to harrow the
hearts of the Mariposa mothers by calling
their little babies bratS.'
Well, while the train of which this lady
was a member was encampcd at point on
the Humboldt, where the Lessen trail inter-
sects the Carson track of travel, she visited
the tent of an elderly couple and one child
n daughter of fourteen or fifteen years. The
old lady was sitting on pile of blankets I'M
der the canvas, encouraging a most determin-
ed attack of the "sulks," while the mascu-
line head Of affairs had planted himself on
his wooden tongue and was sucking his pipe
as ioisuraly as though he expected to remain
there forever. A single glance developed the
fact that there was a ficulty in that little
train of one wagon and three persons and that
i had attained a point of quiet desperation
beyond the reach Of peaceful adjustment
Three days before they had pitched their tent
at the forks Of the road, and as they could not
agree upon the route by which to enter Cali
fornia there they had remained The hus-
band expressed preference for the Carson
road, the wife for the Lessen, and neither
would yield. The wife declared she would
remain there all winter the husband said he
should be pleased to lengthcn the sojourn the
summer following.
On the morning of the fourth day, the wife
broke sullen silence of thrty-six hours by
proposing division of the property which
consisted of two yoke of cattle, one wagon,
camp furniture, small quantity of provisions,
and $42 in silver. The proposal was accept
cd, and forthwith the "plunder" was divided,
leaving tho wagon to the old man, and the
daughter to the mother. The latter exchang-
ed with neighboring train the cattle belong
ing to her, for a pony and pack saddle, and
piling the daughter and her portion of the
divided spoil upon the animal, she resolutely
started across the desert by the Lessen trail,
while the old man silently yoked the cattle
and took the other route. Singular az this
may seem, it is nevertheless true. 1t among

"LooK UP" Surely, man formed in the
image of his Maker should not, like the beast
that perisheth cast his eyes upon the earth!
Even when bowed down by misfortune, he
should strive to look up to tho light which
may yet illuminate his path. These thoughts
crowded forcibly upon Thornby's mind, and
he was beginning to act in accordance with
them, when Sarah bounded into the garden
where her father was busted with some vines
and told her father that he should smile upon
her cheerfully as he used to do, for that,she
had good news to tell him. s
"You deserve to be smiled upon, indeed,
my child" said he, gazing fsudlyon her ami
mated countenanee, ''but Whst news have you
| for me?''
zone of the young ladies who attended our
school asked me to-day if my father was in
want Of situation as clerk; and when ans
wered in the affirmative, she said her uncle re-
questcd you to call at his office tosaonow
morning. Here is the address" Sarah eontin-
ued handing kcr father slip of paper.
"Well, there may be something vet II store
for me, Sarah"
"1ndecd there may, my dear father. Only
think how well our school is succeeding
The income from that alone would affoTa ils
comfortable support. Our Heavenly Fathe,
is always nearto help us in the hour needs
The heart Of the strong man was bowed
down and he trcinbled with emotion. Tears
Of real sympathy stood in the eyes of his
daughter, as she whispered: .
"Your heart will be no longer sad, dear
father you vii smile on us once more"
"My child, the dark shadow has long been
on me, hu: with the help of God I will 10
longer be cast down. Even if tho new OPEN
ing should prove delusive, | will not be dis
cOuraged-I will now look up"
With cheerful countenance, and step
which fell swectly on the ears of his wife,
bringing to her remembrance the days gone
by, he seconded to breakfast tho next morn
ing and at an early hour was on his way to
the city. As he entered the office answering
to the address given him by his daughter he
was met by the same benevolent old Quaker
who had proffcred him advice on former
occasion.
"WcIl, friend" he exclaimed, extending
his hand, II am glad thou hast followed my
advice and learned to look up. have stu

b.lS, was compelled to ti'.d protection in our

,oncuded he would make the attempt, as it
had been reported perfectly safe. II, went.
and arrived without any accident, and passed
several days uninterrupted. But yesterday
morning, as he was luXuriating on nice, hot
breakfast, he heard the cIattcr of horses feet
on the stony road. Rushing to the door, he
glanced down the road and saw it swarming
with Secosh cavalry. Sprinsing quickly to

WASHINGTON'S PRAYER AT VAL-
LEY FORGE.
BY j. W. BRYCE

Father the hour is dark and gloomy,
Humbly bow before thy throne,
And if this bitter cup my doom be,
only say, THY will be DONE
But for my bleeding country hear
One prayer. unseen by mortal eyes,
come to offor all that's dear
To mana willing sacrifice.
II I have erred, spare not thy hand,
Let all the punishment be mine;
But from my loved-my native land,
Father withhold thy wrath divine!
'Gainst me let enemies prevail,
And all my hard won honors take,
But hearken, Father to the wall
Thy suffering children make.
'If on the deSthle rolls of fame
had too fondly hoped to place,
BY honest deeds, my humble name,
The record let tiny hand efface-
Purge pride, ambition, from my heart,
And make me feel thy awful power
Let not thy countenance depart
From freedom's cause in this dark hoGr."
Twas thus while kneeling on the sod
At Valley Forge, meath wintry skies,
Tho chief in secret prayed to God
With contrite SOUL in humble gtis',
Then though the cloud, asnndcr riy'n,
4 solitary star wNs seen:
It came, ames3onser HqlG Heavonj
And in It's light h. srow serene
