James I. Crutcher of Silver City
has been nominated for U. S. Mar
shall of the district of Idaho. Mr..
Crutcher was one of the pioneers of
Boise Basin, consequently he is a
mossback. He served several terms
as sheriff of Boise county, repre-
sented Owyhee county in the leg
islature (this last act is mentioned
as history and not to cast any re-
Election on the gentleman's integri-
ty), hunted "squaws" during the
Indian war of 1877, at which time
he unsheathed his twelve-inch saber
and, face to face, hand to hand, and
breast to breast, engaged in many
fierce and bloody conflicts, and
there was always a dead Indian"
left on the ground when he emerged
from the contest, and last though
not least he is a moral and strictly
temperate man, having never been
known to indulge in anything in
toxicating except when prescribed
by family physician, and many q
time there were intervals of fifteen
minutes passed before the prescrip.
was prescribed in fact, he belongs
to "Old Steve's" school of ethics
and there is nothing "beaney" in
his composition. In conclusion the
writer joins his many "mossback"
friends on the River in congratula-
tions, and all express an inclination
to get up "Coxey matinee" as an
excuse to draw him hitherward
and see the changes that have been
wrought since I'VE won't go home
until mornin'" was sung in the
Idaho City choir. "Shake," Jim.

Mrs. Love decided to go along. She
thought she could ''size up" the camp

When Mrs. Love reached Croede the
building boom was at its height. Car
loads of lumber arrived only to be sold
before nightfall. Claims to lots were
jumped daily and prices for undisputed

Mrs. Love found a new hotel just

AN ANGEL UNAwAREs
A Little Tale of Three Women and
Two Babies.

A Little Tale OF Three Women and
Two Babies.
II was On a Sixth avenue surface car.
and when she got on at Twenty-eighth
street there we're but five passengers
two women, each with a baby, and
the spectator.
One OF the women sat in the far cor
ner, while the other sat on the oppO-
site side.
The spectator is not, as a rule,
"given" to babies, but that baby was
one Of that irresistible sort that laughs
and makes fun OF you, gurgling out all
sorts of disjointed criticisms of your
personal appearance and general make
up that would be simply unbearable
could you understand it,
AS you looked at her hard and un-
womanly face-which not even her
baby's smile could soften-you in
voluntarily pitied the child that some
day must turn to her for sympathy and
help.
These observations we're just com
pleted when the car stopped and she
stepped on.
She was plainly dressed in a gown OF
dark brown, made of some rich corded
material, edged with fur. Her color
ing was of that warm, rich tint that
one finds in the women OF the SOUTH
with golden brown hair and eyes. Al
together she was good to look at.
She seated herself across the car and
Immediately that baby, attracted by
something, who can say what--some
latent goodness in that face, perhaps
which her innocent wisdom. untainted
as yet by the wisdom of this world,
recognized-prepared to make a con-
quest Of the newcomer.
She moved her little plump hand and
cooed and laughed; who could resist
her?
Leaning forward she kissed She little
hand tremulously.
Finally, yielding to an irresistible
impulse, she crossed over and sat be-
side the mother, who might have been
q carven image for any sign of life she
gave.
"Would-would you let me hold that
, dear baby just a minute?"
For the first time that wooden face
became expressive; those light blue
eyes actually glinted and sparkled.
In thin voice that gave vent to all
! the malice OF narrow nature, she
jeered:
"You! Why, I wouldn't let you
touch her."
The poor face changed.
The beautiful, happy flush dcepened
to cruel red. From an expression of
angelic tenderness it took on one that
was in itself an imprecation.
For the babys pure sake, she smoth-
cred it at the door of her lips.
At that moment the car stopped and
she hurried to the door.
She was not so quick, however, but
that other mother caught her hand.
her plain, kind, motherly face, all
alight with divine impulse Of gencr.
osity.
II get off here" she said. "Won't
you carry my baby q little way? My
arms are very tired"
AS they stepped together from the
platfo- m OF the car the spectator, over
come with reverence for the beautiful
charity of that act, felt that he dimly
understood whatit was to entertain an
angel unawares"

He Wa Abscntlninded.

The absentminded man is at it again.
He had been reading the egg story and
decided to try the trick. The first thing
to do was to boil the egg. How many
minutes? he asked himself, and going to
the stove with the egg i'll one hand and
his watch in the other he dropped the
latter in the hot water. Then, placing
the egg on tho table, he sat down to
read until tho time was up. At the end
of five or six minutes he was surprised
to find tho egg lying there before him;
but, supposing that he had himself
taken it from the kettle and cooled it,
he proceeded to crack and peel it. The
consequence may be imagined. Finally
he missed his watch. The house was
searched high and low, and it was not
till the following morning that the cook
found it in the kettle, where it had been
boiling for hours. Exchange.

the camp and were we'll posted. There
upon she began to investigate the pros
pect holes with view of buying, and
instead of leaving in a day, as she had
expected to do, she remained nine days
and bought into three claims. Mean
time, she had determined to go into the
stationery business while awaiting de-
velopments in the mining interests, and
accordingly sent her resignation to the
builders and went to Pueblo to buy
stock She tells now, with smile,
that her employers wrote that at the
end of a month, when she had failed in
Creede, she could come back to her old
place. However, she didn't fail. Tht.
stationery business proved profitable.
She continued investing in mining
claims, and, in partnership with
friend, has grub-staked three different
prospectors, whose work proved very
profitable. Mrs. Loves investments in
Creede have already netted her many
thousands of dollars.
In Breckenridge, COL, is another
woman who. in q still different manner,
has made O name and competence for
herself. Miss Anna Mau went there
five years ago and began prospecting.
She located lode and began work on
it. In the five years she has done ell
the work necessary to get patents for
two claims, the Adelaide and the Ever
green, and has supported herself be-
sides. She now has the patents. The
work included two hundred feet of tun-
mel. She swings the hammer, twists
the drill and wields the pick; she fires
The dynamite and wheels away the
debris. And yet she is slender WON
an, weighing less than one hundred
pounds. She is said to dress in buck
skin trousers and jacket when at work
in the mine, and "she's dandy in that
region, you bet, as mine owner said
enthusiastically 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,
Mont, board of trade is woman, and
80 Is the president of the First National
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
