Profit In a Gold Mine.

Rich strikes are becoming so common in
the Black Hills that many are passed I'M
noticed by the correspondents. The Gold
en- Slipper property has just been opened
up in the southern hills, and the owners
have found a bonanza, although it does
not come up to the Holy Terror phenom-
enOn. 1t pays to work a mine when S.
worth of gold can be gotten from a ton of
ore. 1t was thought that the Golden Slip
per would probably give up about $40 a
ton, but the first test run of thirty-five ons
went SD to the ton. The owners are pre-.
pairing to run the mine on Il large scale.

Love Tokens.

Sailors. who are said to be the most
superstitious Of men. and Oftenest away
from Poll or Sue, are great at love
tokens. They wear a charm on a silken
string around their necks; they tattoo
their manly arms with two hearts trans,
fixed by a single arrow. and marked re-
Spectively Jack" and molly" and
they believe, or pretend to believe, in
the magic power of such symbOlical
unions to keep their affections true to
their loves against all the allurements
of alien beauty.
Moreover. the keepsake, besides con-
tanning as often as possible the hair Of
the beloved object, is almost always
made of precious metals or precious
stones. There is Il common though in
definite feeling that it ought to be some
thing rather useless in gold or silver.
1t remains remotely true, in fact, to its
amulet origin.
Gold and silver and precious stones
are Of immense antiquity. Something
to hang around your neck on Il string;
something to wear on your watch
chain; or. falling these. something in
the way Of necklet, bracelet, brooch.
ear-ring-that is the ordinary ideal of
tho keepsake.
The ideal, in short, descends from a
time when clothing was scanty, per-
Soual ornament vas n matter Of high
Importance. barbaric decoration alone
was then known, and goods and chat
tells were few and simple. We seldom
think Of giving as a keepsake anything
that cannot be worn about the person.

stock allowed to wonder about on the

the winter fully up to the average Of any
year for the past seven. The loss to stock

crop conditions in South Dakota for the

The rainfall during the week was below

Work of a Fiend.
The developments of Il week have been
sufficient to cause the greatest excite
ment. First came the finding of the nude
body Of Marion Williams, a young girl
who had been missing since the day be-
fore, in a closet off the library of the
church. 1t was terribly mutilated. The
finding of this body, startling as it was
in itself, gave the police an idea which
they were not slow in working on. The
close friend of Miss Williams, Blanche
Lamont, had been missing for more than
two weeks and a search for her had been
in vain. But upon the CHASTITY discovery
in the closet q thorough and systematic
examination of the building was decided
upon. Away up in the belfry her body
was at length found, nude like that of her
friend, and also horribly mutilated. The
clothing which was torn in shreds from
the body had been tucked into corners and
holes in the dusty old belfry. In the two
weeks during which it had lain there a
heavy coating Of dust had settled like q

To follow the various steps By which
the police advanced to the point OF ar

been the murder would be as unnecessary
as it would be tiresome. He had hardly
been arrested. however. when it seemed
apparent to the authorities that if he
were guilty of these crimes he must also
have committed two others which were

the ''best'' diamond thieves in the coun-
try, left for their Ohio home. There
they intend to spend the remainder of
their lives in ease and luxury.
1t is estimated that in the last ten
years Minnie May has stolen to the
value of upward of 100000. Some po-
licemen put the amount as high as $500
600. At any rate, she has laid enough
by to keep her and Danny without furth-
er ado as long as they live.
Minnie May is still young woman.
She is not more than % years old. The
and during that time she has been ar
rested more than 1000 times for robbery
and disorderly conduct She has been
called ''the wickedest woman in the
world" but there is often doubt ex-
pressed as to the applicability of this
term.
Minnie May was born on farm near
Milwaukee. Her mother still lives on
the old homestead. When Minnie was
about Is years old, and an innocent but
bright and energetic country girl, she
was engaged to be married, but the pros
pective husband disappea red two weeks
before the day set for the wedding. The
proud-spirited girl felt disgraced in the
eyes Of her family and friends, so she
left home suddenly and came to Chica
go. She quickly drifted into the life of
crime in which her shrewdness, and in
many ways her common sense, caused
her to be successful. Unlike many 9th
ers of her class, the proceeds of her
..'strong-arm' work We're not squandered
in riotous living. She never drank and
she saved the money in the pocketbooks,
disposed of the watches and diamonds
doubtless at sacrifice and far below
par value, but whatever she got was
clear profit-and with the proceeds
bought property in various parts of the
city. For years she was a well-known
figure in the neghborhood of the Grand
Pacific hotel. She usually selected
strange in town as her victims. And
there was a reason for this. If a strang-
er lost diamond or his wallet it would
usually be financial loss for him to try
to stay here to prosecute the case Even
if the victim did succeed in having her
indicted, Minnie would have the case
continued from term to term and in that
way tire the prosecutor until, Disguised,
we would give up the attempt to get her
