Synopsis.
Richardson and his Mexican servant
Jose, arrive, as evening falls. at q Mexican
hamlet, where they put up at a small inn.
The saddles are brought in and both lie
down to sleep. They are awakened by the
music of a dance in the adjoining room,
and Richardson overhears two Mexicans
quarreling as to his robbery and possible
murder. One of them-a fat. round-faced
fellow-enters the room with a torch, fol-
lowed by several companions. Finding
Richardson on the alert, revolver in hand,
they beat his servant, hoping to provoke
him to an attack. He remains calm. Just
then the voices of the girls are heard call
ing the men to the dance, and the Mexicans
gradually withdraw.

MANY ARRAIGNED
As the Result of the Grand Jury's
Deliberations.

The result of the grand jurys work was
evidenced yesterday in the district court,
when several arrangements were made before
Judge Russell.
Fred Johnson, indicted for attempting to
enter the house occupied by Emma Lind,
Second street south, pleaded not guilty and
bail was fixed at 5000.
Thomas ODay and Thomas Lyon, who were
indicted jointly On charge of burglary in
the third degree, each pleaded not guilty, and
the cases were set for April %. Bail was
fixed at $500.
John Hall was charged by an Indictment
with entering L. NJ. Mitchells dwelling, 720
Nicollet avenue. He denied the charge, and
bail was fixed at $500. His case will be heard
April IS.
Dan McCauley and Edgar B. Lawshea
stood indicted for having stolen $50 worth of
shoes from Heffelfnger's store. They pleaded
not guilty and their case was set for April
g. with bail at $500 in each case. Nellie
Ward pleaded not guilty to an Indictment
charging grand larceny In the first degree,
for stealing S25 from the person of Oscar
Danielson. Her case will be heard April %,
and bail was fixed at $500.
The grand jury made a report to Judge
Russell handing in another small batch of
indictments. The jury then went to work on
the Howard bribery case in which T. Z.
Byrnes and William Frazer will appear as
witnesses before the grand jury to testify
for the defense. Several other witnesses will
also be heard on the Fart of the defense,
among others some whose testimony was
considered by the bar association when Col.
Dodge was so quickly eXonerated from any
completely in any such charges. 1t is gen.
orally believed that there Win be TO indct-
ment, and this claim is chiefly made through
the directly disputing evidence of some well
known and greatly respected people Of Fargo,
some of them United States court officials.

WOMAN MINING FOR GOLD.

The proverbial pluck Of Western
girls has just received further demon
stration in the case Of Miss Jennie Hill
ton. who, a few days ago sold her in
terest in the Kansas gold mine in Har-
ouahala, Ariz., for $500 She was
paid at Yuma, $4,000 cash, the remain
der to be paid in sixty days. The buy
ers are D. H. and E. NJ. Higgins, of
Salt Lake City, who have recently
property for $4,000. Special interest in
the sale has been created by the fact
that Miss Hilton is probably the only
active woman gold miner and pros
pector in the Southwest, If not in the
United States. She is about twenty
five years old and was born In Kansas
City. She went from Fresno to the
little town of Sparta, in Pomona val
ley, some years ago and taught a
school there. She was always fond of
studying minerals, and in her summer
and silver deposits She became such
devoted prospector that she never
resumed her school work.
For several years she has been en-
gagged in prospecting and seeking in
formation about mines. She has been
all over Arizona and New Mexico,
where other miners have been, and has
often shared the fortune of miners in
canyons and mountains remote from
civilization. Last year she and an
uncle located the Kansas mine in the
HarqUahala region. where Miss Hilton
had been employed as an assayer for
some months. She personally super
vised the work Of opening the mine.
while her uncle was seeking capital
Several unique schemes In mining en-
cheering In use at the Kansas mine
were conceived by Miss Hilton. She
has other mining properties in Ari-
iona, and with her new capital she
means to go more largely into gold and
silver mining than ever before.
