A staff correspondent Of the New
York World gives the story of Joseph
Ladue, a returned miner, who is now in
Plattsburg, N Y, with the following
preliminary information:
Ladue is plain man, an experienced
mining prospector, short and rugged in
build and type, commonly intelligent,
reserved in nannsr and picturesque in
habits and language. after the manner
of men who have spent much of their
time on the frontier or in the mining
camps.
He is 43 years old and for Is years
prospected among the frozen regions OF
Alaska and the Northwest Territory
with only indifferent success. He knew
mining before he went to the country
of the 1imitIess and unknown Yukon.
He has known there hunger and want
and cold. There were 10 years Of it be-
fore he struck it rich.
Ladue frankly says that, knowing the
dangers of travel in the Yukon country,
he would not this autumn attempt to
return to his "home" at Dawson City,
which he founded last August. He is
going back in March to operate his saw
mill and develop the claims which the
mining company of which he is presi-
dent is to operate.
Ladue is not an educated man in the
schoolbook sense. He is simple and
homely in his speech. He is not imag-
NATIVE; he does not exaggerate, like,
Tor instance. the genius who started the
story that he had brought back $780,
OO0 In gold nuggets and was going to
marry the girl he left behind 10 years
ago when he went west in search of
fortune. He brought back SIS. 900 in
gold
he owns the township of Dawson
City; his sawmill, where he gets $50
for saving 1000 feet of lumber, the
tariff for which in this country is ST.. 90,
and his mining claims, which may Or
may not make him a millionaire. He
reckons' he is worth SO, 900.
In his pocket he has 60 nuggets rang
ing In size from pea to a silver dollar
and worth in the aggregate probably

stantial damn, that he III vcr had any

Mrs. Ford's Lecture.

People continue to be more and more
pleased with Mrs. Ford every time they
hear her. Yesterday afternoon shespOke
on The Holy Grail and an appropri-
ate introduction to her talk was The
Swan Song from 'LOhengrin, sung by
Mr.. Won Dahlen.
Mrs Ford began by telling of the

in the eighth century. 1t was the story
of the silver cup which caught the
blood of Jesus as he bled on the cross.
1t then became consecrated so that the
possessor received all the blessings of
heaven and earth. She then told the
different Grail stories of succeeding
ages until she brought us down to the
more familiar one of TennysOn.
Mrs. Ford will speak on Colour this
evening at o'clock. This is consider
ed one of her most brilliant efforts. To-
morrow afternoon her subject will be
