Better 90 inside" said Corbiu, the Superin-
tendent, who stood with his hand upon the
still open door. ] don't just like your going
on this coach anyhow. Three fingered Jim
and his outfit are operating down about the
SwectWater, and held UP one of our passenger
wagons last week. / don't think he'll want to
tackle this outfit but if he does there'll be the
devil 10 pay, and sOmebOdy'H get hurt. /
shouldn't like to have you get to Sidney with
q dose of lead in you"
! wasn't at all alarmed at the prospect of
meeting Three fingered Jim, but it wasn't be-
cause / was especially ambitious to be the hero
of exciting adventure had been west of the
Missouri River only a few months then, and
had ali tenderioOt's ignorant recklessness-
and j didn't propose to be coOped up in that
dark coach, especially during the ride over the
mountains 70 Rapid City; for just then the
moon appeared above the pines on the top of
the eastern hills, and there was promise of an
enchanting night
My mission in the Black Hills was an i'm
portant one. The Eastern capitalists from
whom l had brought letters OF introduction
were so influential in Deadwood that every
body there had done his best to make favor
able impression upon me and orders had been
sent from the owners headquarters to Corbin
not only to give me transportation upon any of
the companys coaches, but to furnish ME teams
or saddle horses as / might desire them, and,
IN short, to treat me as though l was the owner
myself.
After ! had seen the bullion packed in the
express Office. and heard Corbin explain how it
was to be guarded TO the railroad, it occurred
TO me that it might be an experience worth
having to ride that 500 miles 10 Sidney on the
treasure coach. The journey certainly couldn't
be any more monstonous than that on the reg
ular passenger-coacb; l should escape the dis
comforts of eroWdIug and overlooking, aud /
might possibly meet with some exciting ad-
venture.
No objections raised by the Superintendent
had weight with me. and now l didn Z propose
to start at least, shut up as in a band-hox,
much as ] might enjoy the company and be
entertained by the yarns of Frisco jack and
sam Newell. So I took my place on the seat
with the driver, Jake Worden. The two stable
boys who had been holding the horses stepped
aside, Jake uuwouud the lash of his whip and
dexterously touched the leaders, and we ratified
down the stony street, two of our outriders
gailoping on ahead.

CHICAGO ILL, Nov. %, 1888.
Among other noteworthy things in this organiza-
ton Is the Christmas donations which being
raised throus hout the various Camps be forward
ed TO the Soldiers Orphans Homes in the various
States TO buy Christmas presents for the little
ones. This Is indeed act to be commend
ed. We can do nothing that will so endear
US In the hearts of the old soldiers as to
remember these little ones, who dependent
upon the State, and | hope that every brother of
the Order who reads this article will at con-
tribute to the general fund, and forward the same
with the contribution OF his Camp direct TO the Col
oneI OF his Division, and / that could he
attend any one of these Homes upon Christmas
morning when these presents are distributed aud
see the happy smiles upon the faces of the little
ones, he could never begrudge even 10 times the
amount of his donation.
Past Colonel West, of Kentucky, is on an extend
ed business trip through the State of Kansas, and
will, no doubt do that Division some good, as he
Is thorough worker for the Order.
Maj Gen. Hinzley was in Council Bluffs, Iowa,
at the muster of new Camp at that place, which
occurred on Nov 90
Adi't Goodale reports that the Iowa Division Is
on boom.
Col. f. McCrillis of the Illinois Division. is on
two weeks trip, looking after the younger aud
weaker Camps in Illinois. AS he is hustler, no
doubt he will organize from three to five Camps
during his trip.
We now have five Camps I'm the State of Arkan-

Mrs. Catherine Mullens, 20 years old and one
of the original squatters in lower Jersey City,

Ireland in 1852 with two grown sons, who were
both killed in the first battle of Bull Run
Mrs. Mnllens had no money, and was put out
Of the shanty in which she lived by the owner
She worked and got money enough to buy q
few boards and built hut in the swamp her
self, with the assistance of Miclsy Free, the
pedestrian, who had house on wheels, and
whenever the landowner drove him from one
part of the dry land above the swamp he would
move to another part. Mrs. MulleuS lived in
the house in the swamp all the time though
sometimes the water would be foot deep on
the floor of the hut. She earned her living by
going out washing. She was buried by people
