While developments in the alleged rob-
bing by Big Mouth Annie Of Martina
Barsi are cooking, the accused is deposited
in the cooler. in the expectation that some
thing Is going to turn up. 1t is not in the
best "form" to name such degraded I'M

such as the SENTINEL is, but her condi-
ton is at the present time interesting.
Not that this expression should be taken

anything technical may be concerned in 1t

for opium, and crying piteously for the pipe.

The Masonic Cemetery contains . num-
Der Of graves in which they have been IN
able to find who were buried. There is
nothing to designate whose bodies the
graves contain, as the wooden head boards
have rotted in the ground or been re-
moved. While 1t is possible to collect in
formation in this matter the Masons are
DESTROYS Of identifying the graves in order
to replace the head boards. They wish to
get this information at once, fearing that
il longer time is allowed to elapse they
may not be able to get it at all, in
which case it would be necessary to empty
all the unknown graves to find out the
names of the inferred, by inspecting the
inscription on the metallic lids. By no.
tice elsewhere it will be seen that all per-
SONS having the desired Information are
earnestly requested to communicate 1t to
the Masonic committee appointed to have
the cemetery put in order.

Come at Last.

We have wondered in a half speculative
way if American women, after trying
every other plan in the world to appear
unique, would not eventually begin to
dress in the fantastic and gorgeous style
of China women. 1t is gratifying ito our
prophetic eye) to read the following from
an Eastern society journal, which makes
probable what in q moment Of musing
seemed to our mind only possible: The
Chinese and Japanese styles of headdress
are in high vogue among the ultra-fash-
ionAble woman, and the stars and heads OF
the pins they use to thrust through the top
knots are often studded with diamonds,
rubies and pearls Of rare value.

il is true, as nearly everybody believes,
that Prospect Mountain is rich in paying

OWNS q large tract of mineral land, all
patented, and from which large quantities
OF fine ore have been extracted, must be
esteemed one of the finest prospects in the
