MRs CLARA MCADow, a few years ago, when the Northern Pacific road was building, found herself with $500 and no means of support. After taking stock of herself she concluded to go to Montana. But lest she should spend all her money, she took only enough to pay her way and two weeks board. This would require her to go to work at once. Getting a letter to the chief engineer of the road from an obIiging traveller, she presented herself and asked for employment. She said she could do clerical work and knew some thing of nursing. She was accordingly engaged on a small salary. She soon informed herself about the country, and as she was a good talker distinguished strangers to whom the country was to be talked up were put in her hands. As soon as she saved money enough she bought town lot in Billings, and few weeks after sold it for double the money. As there was no bank in town she used to do 8 banking business on the street by cashing checks. Then she went into real estate, and when she broke her leg she had a map of the town hung in front of her bed, and carried on business on her back. MT Meadow was a storekeeper who had taken Spotted Horse mine for debt. One day she sent for him and offered him $11 900 for it. He was touched by her lack of business sagacity and chival. rously told her it wasn't worth it. She persisted in buying it, and in six months she took out of it $9O, ,000 in gold. MT Meadow subsequently, mar. ried her. She is now the treasurer oi the Billings board of trade and is worth several millions. She conducts business in her own name, and her husband ii only her connubial partner.

THE MEXICAN REVOLT.
Alarming Tidings Received From the Bor.
der.


der.
Alarming tidings from the border reached
New Mexico yesterday. Capt. James Hyland.
United States mounted inspector of customs
who arrived at Deming says the indictments
are crossing the line in large numbers and con-
gregating in the vicinity of Carrisalille. All
are armed and are evidently fiocking to Join
Sais and his lieutenant, who have taken refuge
in the mountains thereabouts.
Therevolutionistsc comprise the worst classes,
and life and property on the line is regarded as
In danger. The troops asked for had not ar
rived. There is but little doubt that move
ment is on foot against the Mexican govern
ment. The outbreak may not come for some
time unless those captured in the revolt in As
cension are summarily punished. II the gov
eminent takes harsh measures with the priso-
ners trouble Will undoubtedly be precipitated
at once.
Gen. Stanley has received from Mai. L. T.
Morris copy of FL International, published at
Poiito Bianco, edited ostensbly by 4. :. Men,
dosa, but really by CARA, which contains
long editorial befriending the revolution. justi-
flying its purpose and the manner in which
the revolutionists have conducted themselves.
CARA IS called patriot and his course and
that OF Dlaz years ago are compared with the
noting of marked similarity. The editorial
concludes with the prediction that CARA will
win. 1t states some of Diazs best supposed
friends are backing Cara, and that when
Cara enters Mexico even the army will Join
him.
Capt. Hardie wires from Pena that Garza's
men are gathering in small squads. He deems
it best TO allow them to get well together
before making decent upon them.
1t was rumored in Mexico that CATERING
CARA will soon be captured. Gen. Reyes has
organized tve columns of rancheres for oper-
ations between Laredo and Matamoras. and it
is thought that if the American troops force
the bandits" to cross over to his side their
capture is sure. But to do this it is considered
that Stanley needs more troops.
Rumors of revolutionary proceedings in the
states Of chihuahua, Durango, Sonora and Co
hahuila are without foundation. The govern
ment has received offers of service from many
officers, but has declined them, on the ground
that no necessity for their service exists. The
government Is not sending more troops to the
northern frontier, considering the presence of
additional forces there unnecessary. A report
sent out by tho Vera Cruz board of health
states that there is not now a single case of
yellow fever in that CITY.
