their silver and iron, and their lead,
and endless abundance Of coal for the de-
Velopment OF sll the productive cspaei-
ties of these great prsiries of Kansas,

furnish the necessities of life for the mil
lions of miners that will be employed in
bringing to light the hidden wealth of
Colorado and New Mexico. The civil
lization that Cortez left Ia Mexico fifty
years before white mans foot touched
Plymouth Rock. and 3 country before
VIM. Penn sailed the Delaware, meets
you to the southwest and rises from that
distant past TO give animation to your
great age OF railW avs, which in turn
unite the people and bring into the cos
est commercial alliance the defendants

tan on the plains of Kansas.

Ida Lewis,

A Newport correspondent says: Some
years ago we used to hear a great deal
of Ida Lewis, the keeper of the Lime
Rock Lighthouse in Newport harbor.
BY her bravery and daring she had res
cued many persons from drowning, and
had received medal from the govern
ment, an appointment as keeper of the
light, beautiful boat from the Nara
gansett Steamship Company, and com.
mendation from various humane socie-
ties. Stepping into trim little yacht
with Mr. Porter Morse and Frank Rich
ardson, of Washington, we sailed away
over the beautiful harbor to the Lime
Rock light to see the heroine of so many
rescues. She saw us coming, and
chained up two ferocious-looking dogs
that had been barking furiously from
the little wharf that projected from the
rock. Once landed, we were introduced
by our skipper to Miss Lewis. She is a
woman of medium height, slender, with
dark hair and eyes, bright and quick in
her movements, and very neat withal
Her little parlor was q picture of neat
ness, as was Miss Lewis herself She
has been keeper of the light for twenty
years, and will continue to the end
She receives from the government $3.50
year and supplies. She certainly did
not look, with her slender frame, as if
she could WELD an oar in the pillows or
pull half-drowned man into boat;
but she has rescued thirteen men, not
withstanding her looks, and can do it
again, if necessary. She was but girl
OF l6 when she jumped into boat and
rescued man who had been capsized
in squall. She lives alone in the light.
house with her mother, who was quite
laxative, and seemed anxious to let us
know how old her daughter was. At
last it came QUITO. "You are quite
correct, mother" said Ida very do
murely.
