WOMEN VINO RUN RANCHES.

They Seem e ne very Successful In Cal
iforAis-A Ma. Makes Comparison.
The women who are engaged In ranchlng in
California are said TO invariably be successful,
more so than men In many instances, which Is
accounted for by the fact that II a woman has
business ability II is her sole ambition TO de-
vslop It to the fullest extent, and she has no
desire to waste her energies In any other direc-
ton. The one idea 10 dominant In her mind and
only things which have a direct bearing on her
business can claim her attention. A man writ
ing on the subject says that 75 per cent. OF the
mel who fail to make q ranch pay In the
fruitful State of California do SO for the rea-
son that they find other things more congenial
and do not attend to their business. Men who
have no resources within themselves are sure to
get dissatisfied with the complete isolation from
congenial intercourse and advantages OF So
ciety, while with women It Is different. They
seem TO be more resourceful than men. Their
continual environment IL perhaps the best edu-
Gator toward contentment, and the continual
yielding to public opinion as TO what she shall
and shall not do is the training which assists .
woman in commercial enterprise. She has no de-
sire TO venture into other kinds of business, or
any disposition to frltter away her time over the
flowing bowl complaining of her i'll luck"
Many women claim that household duties are
heavy in comparison with outdoor manual
labor, and that they are stronger and healthier
when they work In the open air. Several women
in the northern part Of the State have been emil
nently successful with their fruit ranches. and
others equally 80 in the southern part Of the
State. One very enterprising woman has her
self planted several hundred acres to deciduous
fruits, and gets a good income besides from her
wheat and hay fields. She is a young widow,
and In addition to her ranch she runs . hotel.
She Is out early every morning on horseback
inspecting the ranches and directing the days
work. which is pretty well accomplished before
the men who own the adjoining properties have
finished their breakfast. A teacher In one of
the Indian, schools, manages several hundred
acres OF wheat fields every year. and very sue
cessfully, too. And another woman In Los Angeles
10 known as the best real estate operator in
southern California. She will take hold Of a
most unattrective piece Of property and make
money out of Ii.
In San Francisco there are two women who
have gained . high reputation among horticul-
tnrists and carry on q large successful business.

Last Saturday forenoon, as the
incoming stage was striking
into the foothills this side of
Snake river, two masked men
suddenly appeared in the road
and ordered ''halt. Stage
driver John Luxton, who was on
the box, promptly handed out
the mail sack and his watch, and
receiving an order to drive on
he lost no time in complying
with the request. The only pas
senger aboard was Mrs. Nc
Hayden and son, who were net
molested. The robbers dragged
the mail sacksa short distance
rom the-So&d, atra ripped them
open with knives. Luckily there
was no registered mail, and al
though they tore open a large
number of letters it is thought
they secured nothing of value.
1t was evidently their intention
to catch the DeLamar CONNER
cial Co.'S. shipment of specie
which is shipped in from Boise
to cash the payday checks on
the 10th, Luxton drove on until
he met the outgoing stage, with
j. w. Mills, as driver. Mills
gave Luxton his treasure box"
and kept on. When near the
Reynolds creek summit he dis
covered some men skulking in
rocks, near the road, and he
"whirled" his team and struck
back to the Reynolds postoffice,
where he left his registered
mail, Leaving Reynolds again
he made the trip to Nampa with
out incident. 1t was clearly the
intention of the robbers to take
in both stages, but Mills flank
movement spoiled their scheme.
Sheriff Ballard, with deputies A.
B. Crocheron, Evan Williams,
Pat Criffield and Jasper Spencer,
left Silver City that afternoon
for the scene of the robbery. |
They soon discovered the trail

until dark. Starting out again
