1t was the busy season at great bank.
Long rows Of women, some anxious and
depressed looking, all of them with an I'M
mistakable air Of WEAKNESS, were waiting
their turn with books to be presented for
the semiannual interest. A pompous and
many buttoned official paced back and
forth with look Of determination to keep
order or die on his grim visage.
The woman at the window was a new
depositor, and there was longer wait
than usual, while she answered all the
questions relative to her genealogy, and
that Of her sisters, and her cousins, and
her aunts-informatiOn which one must
always give to great bank before it will
oondescend to receive, and sometimes lose,
your money.
At last came the fateful question,
"What is your age2'
A faint blush stole over the faded
cheeks, the antiquated and oorkscrew curls
quivered with agitation as she murmur-
ed, I'D rather not tell, please"
The bank clerk meant business. He
had no sympathy with the maiden mod
esty Of the trembling aspirant to financial
dignity. "Oh, but you must tellr' he re-
piled, somewhat brusquely.
The bushes grew painful, but there was
still q lOophOle of escape. A least all the
world should not know her age, and rails

Edwin Hofstad, a mining man Of
Alaska, who has been spending several
days in Portland,s has gone to his far
northern home to continue work on his
claim on tho shores of the famous "gold
lake, near Sitka. This mysterious lake
was known to the early Russian settlers in
Alaska, but was jealousy guarded by the
ozars officials, and but little of the gold
was taken out. According to the tradi
tions of Sitka, several enterprising miners
in early days established camp near the
lake and secretly mined quantity Of the
precious metal, which they disposed of in
Sitka but they paid dearly for their ven
ture, being arrested and imprisoned for
long terms in Russian prison. Miners
paid no more attention to the lake until
after the Seward purchase, and then the
location of the mines was forgotten.
OF late years Alaskan Adventures have
been industrious in searching for this El
Dorado, but their efforts were never re-
warded with success. 1t remained for Mr.
HOfStad, who is connected with the Sitka
custom house, to find the wonderful lake.
An aged Russian shoemaker of the town
put him on the right track, but it was
only after weeks of patient exploration
that be hit upon the spot. The shoemak-
ers sole guide was the knowledge that the
'gold lake" lay Immediately beyond an
other lake Of similar size, and that both
were within ~ miles of Sitka. When
Mr.. Hofstad was assured Of the value of
his find, he returned to civilization and
bonded a half interest in the mine to an
eastern syndicate. The gold is washed
with little trouble from the sands on the
shore Of the lake and assays all the way
from S1.25 to S25 per cubic yard, accord
ing to Mr.. Hofstad. This, it will be seen,
is exceedingly rich, when it is remembered
that the best California hydraulic mines
pay but few cents per cubic yard.-Port-

"A much speaking judge, T" says Lord

between bench and bar. A sharp sparring
match took place one day between an Irish
Judge Robinson and Mr.. Hoare, whom
the former had charged with the design Of

''No, my lord, . said the counsel, Il have

, the time all these preparations were maue.
General Crook was careful to give his in
/ struction that the point must be held I'M
/ til the artillery and long wagon trains
were beyond the reach Of Early. Dark
ness, stiffness and the mountains enyel-
oped u.s. Finally an order came to march,
to follow the army. General Russell Hast
ings, my aid, was sent up to the mountain
on one side to direct the regiment to come
down and take the pike in the rear Of the
barricade and march rapidly after the ar
tillery.
Another of my staff, Major William
Mckinley of Ohio, was ordered to 60 up
the mountain ON the other side and take
tho road in rear Of the breastworks. The
duty was so perilous and Of such great i'm
pOrtance that the instructions were repeat
eddy given with great care not to come
down the mountain in front Of the barri-
cade, as in the darkness our men would
fire into them. Colonel Devol, who COM
manded the men behind the breastworks,
fully understood the situation. 1t seemed
hours while we were waiting for the two
regiments to come down the mountain.
Il was walking from my horse to the
line of men lying down with guns resting
across the pike. All at once the clear,
heard, Ready, aiml A thousand thoughts
rushed upon me. Our men were coming
down the mountain, and in the darkness
were marching in front Of the barrioade.

arc our men Don't tirel' / rushed to-
ward him and the line, ready to grab him
and the men who were Ready to fire My
soul was on fire. l was too choBed to cry
out: Our menl Our mem Don't fire.
Don't fret but I was too late. DevOi
gave tho order Fret and one vast volley
of guns roared out in the darkness.
Groans and cries and curses followed.

to our men, loading their guns: Those aye
our men. Don't frep But Colonel Devol
and his men tried to seize me, saying:
They are rebels, colonel Do not 90 over

A Georgia paper tells of o rifle for
minister that was recently held in ParrOtt,
Ga. the loser being compelled 10 take him.
The Methodist congregation was having a
revival which had dragged its length along
until The congregation had become worn
out with church going and providing for
the preachers, who came from all around
to assist in the cause. The last preacher
that came was the straw that broke the
back of the dromedary. No one wanted
him, and a meeting Of tho stewards was
held to consider how no was to be provid-
ed for. One of them proposed to draw
straws for him, which was not agreed to,
but finally the question was settled by a
proposition to rattle the minister off, and
this actually happened, the steward who
made the lowest throw taking the unwel-
come preacher and providing for his phys
ical wants during the closing hours Of the
long religious services.

HAYES THRlLLINo EXPERIENCE,
War Story Told BIZ the Ex-Prssident al
Grand Army Reunions.

AHAn0 ANAhI lhGunlouds
Here is a war story told by OK President
Rutherford b. Hayes at Grand Army re-
unions and taken down from his lips by a
reporter of an exchange:
Il have been frequently asked" said
General Hayes, "to tell the most thrilling
experience that occurred to me during my
four years in the volunteer army. 1t was
in 1864 that the army of West Virginia
tried to capture Bynchburg, Va, but Gen
eral Lee rapidly sent heavy force to drive
us back, and it was thought best to fall
back to the Kanawha valley, where food
and clothing could be had, and then go by
the railways to Winchester again. Gener-
al Jubal Early's army was pressing our
forces at every point, and was ordered by
General George Crook, who commanded
the divisions, TO check tho enemy until
our wagon trains and artillery could get
out Of tho way.
"a gap was chosen in tho mountains.
two or three regiments we're ordered to
build a barrirnde across the road in the
gap, ono regiment was sent up the noun
tain on the wight and another on tho left
OF the gap to protect tho TANKS; these
selected were as accurate IN fir.

.rTbo advent OF the trolley and its
displacement OF horses In, afscte |
many lirss of industry in one way or
another, and one business which has
gone into mtrked decline because OF
the electrical Innovation is that OF q
large class of farmers who depend on
tais city as q market for their hay,
remarks the Philadelphia Record.
Eight or ten thousand horses, which
formerly belonged to the old car lines,
and were IN important factor in tho
consumption of hay. have disappeared.
and nothing takes their place in This
particular. The popularity of the troll
lays for pleasure travel also has cut into
the business of the liveries, and here,
too. with smaller stables, tue demand
for Inc farmers principal product
is lessened. A conscrvatiye estimate
places tho amount of hay now received
in this city at only two-third OF Hhas
was brought in q few years ago, tho
great falling of being due entirely to
The shrunken market and consequent
lower prices. Altogether the quota
tions on hay have dropped about fif-
teen per cent. since the trolleys were
put in operation
