head of navigation on SinSlaw river
over the coast range mountains, follow
ing up the river to Rale's poStoffiee sta
ton, within fifteen miles of Eugene
City.
Her route is twenty miles long, and is
situated right in the heart of the noun

ventures incident to such an occupation
abound. She carries the mail right and
left and fears nothing. She rides horse
back and carries trusty revolver.
Miss Westman Is plump little bru-
nette, and is just twenty years old. Her
father and uncle operate stage line,
and have contract for carrying the
mail. At Hale's station Minnie meets
her father and gets the mail from
Eugene City and starts Oh her round.
Miss WeStman has never met with a
serious mishap IN the performance of
her duty. On one OF her trips last year
she found three good-Sized bears i'm the
road right in front of her. The horse,
on espying them, became frightened,
threw his rider to the ground. and turn
ing around, ran back the road he came.
Miss Westman, with great presence of
mind, started after the runaway, and,
Overtaking him, remOunted and rode
right through the savage Gordon, and.
