High up on a beautiful. eminence in a
wild mountain valley of South Wales
rise the proud towers of PATHS home, the
romantic Elizabethan castle of Craig-y-
nos, where the cdntdtrice spends her
summers free as a bird. A beautiful brook
runs through her own spacious castle
grounds, and there are a score of others,
the headwaters of the Tawe, the Meath
and the Usk that lie in the region of the
unpronounceable Ystradgynlais, within
the shadow of the mountains, near Craig
y-nos. The valley of the Meath, not far
distant, is most picturesque and wild,
filed with trout streams with cascades
800 feet in heights; and in the distance
rise the Brecon Beacons, the highest
mountains in South Wales. Thesplendid
castles OF the Marquis of Butte and the
Earl of Dunraven, both enthusiastic fish.

The Means by Which She Secured a Days
Notwithstanding Never Before
Published. !
Not only have politicians and their
wives loved the angle, but artists as we'll
have felt its subtle destinations; among,
others, Harriet Hosmer, the celebrated
American sculptures, in her younger days
was a passionate devotee of this sport.
She was a delicate girl, born on the banks
of the Charles; so her father, a physician,
encouraged her in all kinds of out-of-dooP
sports and she soon bettered the instrucs

young colt played; swimming the broad

ing and fishing ad libtttn. One of her
scapegrace companions, now a nature
man in Boston, told this anecdote which,
has never yet been In print about one OF
her ~escapades. One day Miss Harriet
wanted to go a-1shing In a stream some
distance from the house which the rail.
road passed, but near which there wasno
station. The agile young Amazoniumped
on the train; when IL was nearing her
proposed fishing ground, she ran to the
platform of the last car, which was nearly
empty, and deftly pulled out the coupling
pin. The train went whizzing on, and
Miss Harriet and a few dismayed travel
ers found themselves passengers on5

Their Wonderful Skill and Success in the
Piscatorial Art.
One of the finest salmon fishermaidens
of the present day Is Miss Gunnison, a
London lady Of distinction, who spends
all her winters in New York, and her
abroad. She recently pur-
chased from one of the best known New
York sporting houses, a splendid split
bamboo double-handled salmon rod, with
which she intends to whip the streams of
Scotland and Wales this season. Miss
Gunnison is one of the most remarkable
fsherwomen of the present day, tall and
athletic; not one woman in ten thousand,
and few men indeed, could wade the
brawling streams as she does, handle her
big eighteen-foot rod, almost like o
young hemlock sapling, with equal ease
and grace, or throw o gorgeous salmon
fly with equal lightness and accuracy, to
say nothing of hooking and playing her
game.
A worthy rival of Miss Gunnison's, at
least in trout fishing, and almost u pion-
eer among ladies in this sport, is Mrs. j.
W. Mendenhall, of the st. James Hotel,
Washington. She has fished for over
twenty years, and yet is as enthusiastic
and successful as ever: in a fishing party
Of ladies and gentlemen, she always
catches three trout to her compaJions'
one. She prefers trout fishing with the
fly, and is a genuine enthusiast, dressing
in Bloomer costume and wadlng the
streams. In Pike and Lycoming Co. and
near Trout Run, Pa, the places she does
most affect, the old fishermen say the
trout all lie with their heads up stream,
and their ears open, ready to dart up
stream as soon as they hear that Mrs.
Mendenhall is on the war path.
New York and Brooklyn boast many
clsver lady anglers; one of the most
noted In a literary 7oint of view is Miss
Kate Hillard, the iPce Of W. j. Still.

humble outfit is pretty sure to find some-H
bonanza king. Romantic stories are
written about him, and his name becomes
famous. How did he get hisstartP With
pick and shovel, climbing the rugged
peaks, often hungry and cold. Year in
and year out he may have searched in

the mountains are his. But some never

That Is now the cry in the mining
camps Of Colorado.
Spring and summer is the prospect
ing season proper. About February
miners will begin to pair off into "pards"
and talk over the most available field in
which to try their luck. 1t is a mistaken
idea that all miners spend their wages in
gambling and dissipation, for during the
long winter months many are looking
ahead and saving their money to prospect,
and hope to find a mine Of their own be-
fore fall. Prospectors are the most hope
full men in the world. '
Hope Is worth about $1,000 a year to
Colorado prospector. Nss' !
The gray-headed old miner who has
searched in vain for q rich mine for years
Is just rs hopeful as one young and Wig
orous and with his life yet before him. n
4 TWO KINDS OF PRosPEcToRs.
There are two kinds of prospectors.
There is the man who goes to work to find
a mine and develop 1t and make a for
tune. All tenderteet belong to this class,
for they always start in with most ambi-
tious intentions. Then there is the ''con-
stitutiona" prospector, who looms up in
every mining camp, and can fill you with
more wild stories about mines and mining
than could a prince Of Munchausen. He
is always an old-timer, and has been every
where. He will talk as familiarly Of all
the great mining camps between the
Rocky Mountains and the Pacific coast
as will an old New Yorker of the princi-
pal buildings on Broadway. He will tell
you of the days when Tabor had not a
dollar, when Sharon was poor, when Mao
kay couldn't wear good clothes, and Joe
Chaffee had to rustic. he is q kind of q

The young married coterie here re-
member the winter when Mrs. Nellie
Baseltine Paramore, of St. Louis, and
Miss Cora Baker, of the same city, set up
rival courts. One evening there was a
famous box party to which the beauties
and their following were invited, but it
seems that Mrs. Paramore refused to
meet Miss Baker, or Miss Baker refused
to meet Mrs. Paramore, I don't remem-
Der which, so that the liberal hearted
gallant was obliged to engage opposite
boxes and to divide his attentions be-
tween the two ladies in the face of a cur
ious audience. Later there wa to be a
coy supper, but it was again necessary
to provide separate tables. The affair
created a decided sensation at the time.
Mrs. Paramore has passed to 1.-THE
silent majority" and Miss Baker has
dropped out Of sight, but even now their
standard of beauty is talked of, and will
doubtless go down to history as some-
thing quite beyond what is allotted to
women generally. Then came Miss Gus
sic Evans up from st. Louis to touch the
hearts of the SWANS and to make society
wonder ~enviously why golden ringlets
and eyes of heavenly blue" were not dis
tributed with more equal lberality.
Miss Evans possessed a classical sort of
beauty, and I recollect we'll a striking pic
ture she had taken, clad IN the severe
costume of a sister Of the Sacred Heart.
About this time the daughters of the pi-
oneers were beginning to tuck up their
hair and society found it necessary to inn
port from farther East. AS soon, how

Mrs. Montgomery spent several winters
here as Miss Wingate, and was a toast.
She is very tall but finely formed. She
has the taste Of a Southerner in dress and
the manner of a social leader. Her hair Ia
dark brown and her eyes blush gray, with
touches Of lumber in them. She has clas-
steal features and a fine complexion. On
