resolution to locate In 1t until, one day,
she was told at eight o'clock in the
evening that an excursion train would
leave the city at midnight fer the camp.
and that friends of hers were going.
Without any hesitation Mrs. Love de-
cided to go along. She thought she
could "size up the camp" in day and
come back to her work.
When Mrs. Love reached Creole the
building boom was at its height. Carloads
OF lumber arrived only to be sold before
nightfall. Claims TO lots were jumped
daily. Prices for undisputed lot claims
were rising hundreds of dollars per
day.
Mrs. Love found new hotel just
opening, secured room, and began TO
look around. She found also, somewhat
to her surprise, number OF friends as
we'll as acquaintance, among whom
were two or three mining experts who
had been a long time in the camp and
were we'll posted Thereupon she began
to investigate the prospect holes with q
view to buying, and instead OF leaving
in day, as she had expected to do, she
remained nine days aud bought into
three claims. Meantime she had deter
mined to go into the stationary bust
ness while awaiting developments
In the mining interests, and accordingly
sent her resignation TO the builders and
went to Pueblo to buy stock. She tells
now, with a smile, that her employers
wrote that at the end Of month, when
she had failed in Creole, she could come
back TO her old place. However, she
didn't fail. The stationery business
proved profitable. She continued in
vesting in mining claims, and, in part
nership with friend, has gru6-staked
three different prospectors, whose work
proved very profitable. Mrs. Loves In
vestments in Creole have already
netted her many thousands OF dollars.
In Breckenridge, Colo, IS another
woman who, in a still different manner,
has made name and a competence for
herself. Miss Anna Mau went there
five years ago and began prospecting.
She located lode and began work on
il. In the five years she has done all
the work necessary to get patents for
two claims, the Adelaide and the
Evergreen, and has supported her
self besides. She now has the
patents. The work included 200
feet Of tunnel. She swings she hammer,
twists the drill and wields the pick;
she fires the dynamite and wheels away
the debris. Ana yet she is slender
woman weighing less than 100 pounds.
She is said to dress in buckskin trous-
ers aud jacket when at work In the
mine, and "she's dandy in that rig,
you bet" as mine owner said enthusl-
astically In telling about her. She is
said TO be over thirty, but Is comely in
spite of her hard life.
The above instances by no means
complete the list of successful Western
women. The president OF the Billings,
Montana, Board of Trade is q woman.
and so is the president OF the First Ma
tional Bank Of Lexington, Neb.. while
the largest mail contractor In Texas be-
longs TO the same sex. All OF which
goes TO show that the West is favored
land for the woman OF pluck and brains.

So, thanks to her good sense in con-
sulting an old Senator, this lady did not
make the mistake that few less wise
Senator'S wives have done OF making
first visit when etiquette required
that they should receive them. OF

New YORK, May 5.-The interna-

the world, which is soon TO be decided
between George Dixon, III Boston.
Mass, the feather-welght champion Of
the world, and Albert Griffith, OF Aus
tralia, better known as Young Critic, Is
already beginning to attract more than

cording to the contract, are TO weigh
in at 100 pounds nine hours before the
time set for the contest, and should
either fail TO make weight his $4,000
will forfeit to the other. Dixon has so
far proved that heals the most wonder
full pugilist At his weight who has ever
stood in the prizs ring, and he has met
champions OF England, Australia and
America, and'always victory has perched
on his banner. In the impending con-
test Dixon has to face in the arena the
champion feather-weight OF Australia,
a pugilist who possesses wonderful HIT

Hist who has figured In over one hun
dred battles, enough to fill 3 good sized
volume IL they were published. Critic
was born in MilIer's Point, Sydney,
New Sauth Wales, In 1872. He ran
away from home when boy, aud made
his living selling newspapers. His
first battle was with Bob O'Neil. The
fight took place in JohnSon's sporting
house at Miller's Point, and he defeated
his onnOnent AFTER fighting q slashing
mill for tyro in fifteen rounds, lasting
fifty-nlne minutes. Young Critic Great

style he displayed In defeating O'Neil
that he was matched to fight Bob Fran

would have any chance with Francis,
who had made his mark, but Critic
showed wonderful pluck, tremendous
hitting power, and won In seven rounds,
fought ia forty minutes. Critic then

Critic, declared that Powell had fallen

that the better man won: In fact, Powell
admitted afterward that Critic was

Powell had been allowed TO fight an
other round Critic most certainly
would have knocked him out. Grffos
next battle was with Billy Murphy OF
Australia, who came to this country
and won tho fsather-welght champion

In the chase for dollars women seem
to succeed better in the West than in
the East. Mrs. II. Z. Houghton, OF
Spokane Falls, proves the accuracy OF
this observation. Her career reads
like a romance. She went to her
present home from Wisconsin. Her
husband, II. Z. Houghton, is a lawyer,
and now a State Senator. The boom
was just striking Washington at the
time, and Mrs. Houghton got TO In
vesting money on her own &C
count. She bought timber and
coal lands and desert acres,
good II irrigated. Besides this she
became interested in numerous town
sites, notably at Bonner's Ferry and
Post Falls. Everything has gone her
way, aud she is now worth some $780,
600. all realized from an original
investment, it is said, Of but $500.
Mrs. Houghton is not boastful of
her success, however, and says that
what she has done can be done by other
young women, and that she feels the
great West is the place for the young
women of the crowded East, whether
they want TO obtain wealth or
husbands. Mrs. Houghton is
little more than thirty years
old. Though naturally one OF the
most retiring OF women, she has often
been known to make long trips by rail
to Tacoma and ST. Paul to consult with
railroad officials and others In regard to
land deals. She has also made many
perilous trips by stage over the wild and
mountainous sections OF eastern Wash
ingtOn and northern Idaho. Where
MANY men would hesitatate to set out
on journey because Of snow or rough
roads, Mrs, HOughtOn sees in such OBJ
stacles an incentive for her energy. She
has acquired nearly all her wealth since
1887.
Emulated by Mrs Houghton's exam
pie many young ladies from the East
are locating on the public lands Of
Washington. About Olympia, Tacoma,
and other towns OF eastern Washington
many of these young ladies have made,
and are now making locations. Many
OF them have come from the far East,
principally from New York and Boston.
They have taken up their lands under
the timber, presumption or homestead
acts mainly, and in some cases they
have goae out into the woods, put up
cabins, and made their nominal home in
the wilderness. while engaged for part
OF the time in the towns from eight TO
dozen miles away in teaching or type
writing.
Quite q number OF them have very
good log cabins, well furnished and
truly comfortable. Lots of the girls
can shoot with the best Of the sterner
sex, and II you go into Que OF these
cabins you will see sight that will in
terest you ia the highest degree-deer
horns, gun, skins OF wild animals, In
dian relies, glittering specimens OF ore,
are few Of these things. The young
lady's cabin, however, differs from th&t
Of the young man in being more
neatly kept. One of the young women
from the East is Miss Lulu Lamson,
OF the Emerson High School at Tacoma.
She went there five years ago from New
York City. She came to make a win
ming, and with this in view did not diff
fer from scores Of other young ladies
who arrived about the same time. Miss
Lamson began teaching at once, and
meantime took up presumption claim
and afterward homestead at Wash
ougal, on the Columbia River, near
