SERVING THE QUEEN.

Sucoessful Diplomatic Mission Con-
ductsd by Young English Ohacsr.
The English government OF India is
tremendous machine and probably no
statistics could have helped outsiders to
realize its magnitude quite so clearly as
Rudysrd Kipling's stories have done.
He has painted the dogged endurance
and ever alert intelligence required to
overcome the childishness and perfdy
OF the natives, and in half q dozen sto-
ries he has written OF the superhuman
cruelty and witness OF the brave Al
ghane. There was memorable story
in Many Inventions, of q march through
q mountain pass in that country when
an elephant stopped the way and refused
to move because ne wanted to hear q
friends voice, and Mulvaney limped out
OF hospital to quiet him. The ameer of
Afghanistan, Abdurrahman, has been
for some years coquetting with Russia
and permitting most unpleasant lit
tie sorties on the British frontiers.
The government of India has ex-
pended much diplomacy, but could win
no pledges from the monarch. He
hardly recognized the government of
India, and insisted on having a special
ambassador sent to him from the
queen. For many months Lord Roberts
fingered in India in order to conduct q
mission to Cabul, but the ameer was
fertile in inventing reasons for delay
until Lord Roberts was Obliged to give
i. up and return to England.
This summer the ameer sent an invi-
tation for conference. And Sir Morti-
mer Durand. secretary OF the foreign
department st Simla, with four officers
set out for Cabul. They trusted en-
tirely to Afghan honor, their escort be-
ing provided by the Afghans. They
made the trip surrounded by all the
comforts that their hosts thoug ghtfull-
ness could suggest. At each stopping
place they were met by friendly mes
sage. Arriving at Cabul the mission
was welcomed by public rejoicings, A
treaty was concluded, and at q public
durbar the amesr formally announced
his alliance with England, and that
England was pledged to protect him
against Russian oppression.
November 18th the mission left Cabul
and has reached India in safety. The
have been q brilliant diplomatic tri-
the Ameer before and was received as
an old friend. He, Of course, is familiar
with the Persian language and and at
the great Durbsr he addressed the chiefs

rsrary to Lord Engin, the newly ap-
pointed viceroy of India.

Camp on head of Holcomb creek,

/ pounds Of cornmeal. At the end OF that
time they were faced by starvation. and
! resolved at all hazards to try and Kill
some game to ward of the psngs of hun
Rsr which WAS now gnawing at their
vitsls. One OF the mon took his gun
and Left camp ON pair OF rudely con-
structed snow shoes and succeeded in
oyertaking q deer, which he killed and
carried within mile of camp, but was
compelled to leave it as he had become
exhausted. Tho party finally left the
scene OF 90 many hardships and re-
turned 20 this city, whore one of them lie
confined to his bed and is in q serious
condition.
On November 18th last R. E. Norton,
E. ]. Ives and George L. Woodard left
San Bsrnardino for Holcomb valley,
about so miles distant, to inspect .
mining claim of which they were the
owaers. A blackboard drawn by two
mules carried them swiftly through the
valley to the mountains. As they only
expected to remain six days they took
provisions to last that time, but were
supplied with guns and intended to do
considerable hunting on the trip.
After reaching the mou untains the
road is quite rough, making travel very
laborious. November 18th they reached
the mining location, near the old Green
leaf mine, which was one OF the most
famous mines in this section of the
country in early days. Away back in
the sixties q camp with population OF
500 to 1000 was located here. but the
dance hall il all that remains to bear
testimony Of once busy village:
Snow commenced to fall and as all
three Of the party had lived and hunted
in the mountains of Montana, Wy
oming, Dakota and Idaho they realized
that 4 blizzard was about to overtake
them even If they were in Southern Cali
fornis. They repaired to a deserted

states. Mr.. Ives killed 27 deer while
out on one trip in Montana. As = result
of the exposure OF the trip Mr.. Woodland
is still confined to the house. He can
not wear shoes, his feet being so swollen
that it is impossible for him to get
shoes on.
They say that the water on Bear Val
ley lake froze in three minutes 40 hard
that it was impossible to row q boat
over it. while just Eve minutes before
person could have gone without coat
and felt very comfortable.
This lie the first year snow has fallen
80 early and in such large quantity for
over 20 years in that section, and people
regard it freak of nature, as they did
in this valley when the soft white fakes
fell last november.
The expedition ended without the loss
of life, while all of the party are OF the
opinion that they experienced more
hardships in this trip than in any of a
like nature before. They say that in
the future they will remain among the
viney ards OF the valley and enjoy eating
oranges and plucking flowers in De-
cember. A. III. HARLIN.

ment, the cabin was completely buried
in the soft white flakes.
A big fire was kept burning in the CEN
ter of the cabin on the dirt floor night
and day to keep the men from freezing
Old boxes and loose timbers furnished
plenty OF fuel.
With starvation staring them in the
face Ives took his gun and started in
search of game on the snow shoes.
While be was gone fawn came past the
cabin in plain sight, foundering in the
snow. The sight of something to ap-
pease ths appetite SO close almost drove
the two remaining members of the par
ty-Woodard and Norton-wild, but help
might as well have been a thousand
miles away, as they could not pursue
the game without snow shoes, and theee
were in the possession of Ivee.
Late that evening Ives returned empty
handed and downhearted. Things be-
gan to look desperate for all.
The next morning Woodland took the
skies and his rife and set out to try his
luck. He walked for six miles, follow
ing the trail of a deer. and finally shot
and killed it. Cutting the hind quar-
ters off he started on a weary walk to
camp. Whom within about mile of
camp he became so exhaused from the
long tramp and hunger that he Was COM

they had tied the mules. Woodland was
80 exhausted that he could not leave
his bed. His feet were blistered all
over from the long walk the day before,
and he has not been able to put on
shoe since.
The snow was about FIVE feet on
level, and it took three days hard work
to shovel trail wide enough to lead the
mules singly through from one cabin to
the other. The animals we're almost
starved, and had eaten all the bark off
the inside OF the log cabin.
The morning of November the 24th
the party left the cabin for deserted
station about two miles. Woodland
drove, while the other two walked In
front and shoveled and stamped trail
in the enow, which had begun to melt.
On reaching the station the mules were
given some pine needles, which they ate
like it wac barley or hay.
That night they reached Mexican
rancher named PomoD. Here they
rested day and a half. He told them
they could not return by the Bear
valley wagon road, as snow lay on 1T tc
the depth of FIVE feet.
The only way out lay to the north

cabin near and stored their provisions
inside and unhitched the mules and
tied them to the side of the cabin most
protected. Snow continued to fall all
night and on going out next morning it
measured one and one. half feet on the
the level, while on the north side OF the
log hut it had drifted till it was up to
the caves of the roof.
All hopes OF escape were now cut off
and after discussing the situation they
decided to take the mules to another
cabin about half mile from the one
they occupied. There are several feed
wards on the road to Holcomb valley
and the party only carried enough feed
to last from one station to the next. One
common barley sack of straw was all
the feed the mules had to last the 10
days which elapsed before more was Sc
cured.
The men did not fare so bad as the
animals for the first three or four days
as they had supply of provisions to
last six days, but as time wore on and
the snow continued to fall they soon
realized that they might have to stay in
their present quarters for two or three
weeks. The party put themselves on
short rations but even then the fourth
day dawned and they were completely
out of every edible.
In the cabin they found an old saw.
With it they cut and split the ridge pole
to q tent which they had brought with
them and constructed rude pair Of
snow shoes. George L. Woodard, one Of
the party, had hunted in the northern
part of the United States for a number
of years put the shoes on and shouldered
his gun and started for Pedley's camp
Here he found l5 men existing on one
meal day. They generously divided
their provisions which consisted OF corr
meal altogether. He returned with foul
pounds of corn meal, from which the
party made mush for two days when
they saw even this small bill OF fare rur
out.
