The Pioneer White Woman
LeaIyille.

The Buffalo Telegraph gives the
history of Mrs. Sarah Bell, of Lead
vile. who was the pioneer white wo-
man in that town. She has dug in
the mines. fought in wars with Indians
side by side with her husband, scour-
ed the plains on horseback as scout
and become an expert in the business;
helped found the City of Leadville,
mapped out roads, built houses. took
in washing from the Leadvile miners,
and is today in possession of a fortune
that pays her $4,000 a year. Tie
Telegraph interviewed her and learn
ed this: She came from the North of
Ireland to New York City when she
was 10 years Of age and married
book-keeper named Joseph Ordway.
Her husband died a year later and
she went to Leavenworth, Kansas;
from thence to Denver and finally, in
1876, to Leadville. In Denver she
married miner named Frank Ray,
but he died soon after. She told how
in Leadville she braved the dangers
and storms of winters before there
were buildings there to inhabit; how
Cora, her seven year old daughter,
had to be kept wrapped up in heavy
blankets to keep her from freezing
while she pursued her task of building
a hut; how, when the place became
settled she saw the land she had taken
up turned into a fortune, etc, etc.
She owns buildings in Leadville that
rent for $4,000 month. Il saw my
old man once sit on horse and shoot
seven Indians without stopping; and
I've done something like it myself
Young man." she added, with quiet
twinkle in her eye, 1--we shot more
Indians than you've got fingers and
toes. You wouldn't think, to look al
me, would you, that I've gone out on
the mountain side, up to my waist in
snow, and staked out the streets of
Leadville! But its Gospel truth. =

Pure Airn Vital Necessity.

There are few bedrooms in which il
is perfectly safe to pass the night with
out something more than ordinary pre-
cautions to secure an influx of fresh
air. Every sleeping apartment should
of course, have a fireplace. with an open
chimney, and in cold weather it is wei!
if the crate contains small fire, at
least enough to create an upcaSt cur
rent and carry off the vitiated air of the
room. Summer and winter, with or
without the use oftire it is well to have
a free ingress fer pure air. This should
be the ventilators first concern. Foul
air will find an exit if pure air is admit
ted i'll sufficient quantity, but it is not
certain that pure air will be drawn in
if the impure air is drawn away. SO
far as sleeping rooms are concerned. 1T
is wise to let in air from without. The
aim must be to accomplish the object
without causing great fall of temper
AZURE or draught. The windows may
be drawn down an inch or two at the
top with advantage and a fold of muslin
will form veHtilator to take off the
telling of draught. This with an open
fireplace. will suffice and produce no
unpleasant consequences even when the
weather is very cold. 1t is, however,
essential that the air outside should be
pure. Little is likely to be gained by
letting in fog or mist.
Sleep, under as nearly right condl-
lions as possible, is an important factor
in life, and has much 10 do with its sue
cess, Il have been burning midnight
oil to my sermons SAID an ambitious
pastor to old Mr.. Wiseman, land still
they do not come up to the mark" Sup
pose you try little midnight Sleep

Mr.. Thomas Hughes colonists at
Rugby, Tenn, are i'll trouble. Their
first winter in the new settlement Is
dispiriting enough, what with inces-
SAINT rains. the unexpected cold and the
almost utter solitude to which they are
condemned by therampart OF unbrOken
forest about them. But the news from
England is likely to dishearten them
still more. Doubts are being thrown
out by the London press upon this e1-
pertinent in way likely to check the
expected emigration to the colony in
the spring. The court Journal de-
nounccs the settlement as mo better
than the Eden to which Martin Chuz-
zlewit was beguiled, and the Pail Mall
Gazette publishes statement from a
Mr. Nicholson, an employee Of the Gin
cinnati southern railroad, to the effect
that all practical men know that moth
ing but miracle could make the colo
ny succeed under the present conditions
for the reason that the soil is thin and
sandy, the worst in Tennessee; that the
raising of corn and wheat never can be
made profitable: that the colonists are
too genteel to do the rough manual
work required; and lastly. that their IT,
tie to their land is not good. The
Spectator, on the other hand, publishes
glowing weekly letters from the colo
nists which would convey the impress
sion that they have found an agricultu-
raj and aesthetic paradise. Nothing
can be easier than for MIR. Hughes
to examine into these charges
and prove them either true, or what is
much more likely, irresponsible, ma
licious gossip. They are calculated to
injure the colony very much in Eng
land and totally to discourage the emf
grafton of the very class whose condi-
ton he is anxious to benetit-middle
class men with families and small ca,,i-
tai.
