work on the Grubstake claim just over
the hill from the newly-discovered Mas
cot, property long docketed in the
colonel's mind along with certain other
possessions significantly known to him
self as yellow dogs"
But in mining, perhaps more gem
orally than in any other pursuit, it
j.. the unexpected that happens. 4 few
feet below the surface the Mascot vein,
erstwhile so fair in promise, abruptly
''pinched out" scarce showing even
trace of mineral, while old miners
looking on declared that the ore would
never come in again, however deep Neil
might sink his shaft. His discovery was
simply " pocket" nothing more; and
with heads wisely wagging and many
an assured ST told you So" Windy Gulch
veered round to it's first opinion of the
ground. leaving Neil to his work alone.
The "tenderfoot" confidence with
which he stuck by the claim came to be
regarded as rather a good joke as time
went on; but, prone most of all to adj
mire that quality in man known in its
own vernacular as sand" the young
man was held in growing respect, the
camp as a unit declaring that he de-
served "to play in better luck" than
was ever likely to be his share up there
by the old trail.
To Neil it seemed simply inevitable
that he should go on with the work, al
though, with finances presently '-down
to bedrock" in the mining phrase, he
struggled against heavy odds. He had
so far pgofited by lessons Of adversely,
however, that he was fertile in contriv-
ance; and when the last slice of bacon
had gone into the frying-pan and the
last stick of giant powder had plowed
up the Mascot shaft to no end but to
increase it's depth, in no wise dis
heartened, he betook himself to one of
the neighboring mines, there to ham
mer drill for day wages until suffi-
cient fund had been accumulated to re-
new the work upon his own claim So
for many months he alternated be-
tween the rough lot OF the common
miner and what seemed the even harder
experiences of the mine-owner, until
the numbing touch OF despair had slow
IL settled upon his heart and he went on
duly with the work, more from force
Of habit than from any living hope in
the outcome. And then. as though fate
had tried his mettle far enough, ne ran
into free gold in such marvellous masses
as had never been known before in all
the region round.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1897-10-21

Four nights a week and once on Sun
days had Lancelot Gewgaw been pay
ing his attentions to the pretty Sy
rasella Floordelee, and there was yet
quite long payroll before him. But
in all that time he had not thought to
say the thing that would have made
him happy. Syrasella was beautiful
being. Her hair was so raven black
that it left a mark on everything white,
which is why Lancelot always wore
colorcd gentlemen's furnishing goods.
Her eyes were like twin comets, rush
ing through space at each other, and
she had many beautiful teeth. Alto
gether she had the proper assortment
of attractions calculated to make her
face thing of beauty.
Lancelot was not a chump, although
he wasn't saying thing to her. He
was simply lacking in assurance. He
was Il book agent, but that was his pro-
fession. His almost human ears hung
on either side of his head, tastefully
covered over with real hair, and his
eyes were of the true fioor-walker va
riety. He was no bargain-counter at
traction, but special Monday mark
down, and Syrasella knew it.
And now they were seeing leap year
GO out together. He had talked about
everything except the one dead-easy,
hackneyed, yet never stale subject, and
as the hands on the clock chased them
selves near TO IL she grew more and
more beautiful as she seemed to be
nerving herself up to the point of say
ing few words herself. Suddenly the
clock struck a dozen times, and with a
wild cry she cried out, saying: Lam
ceIot. why did 1 lose my chance? Leap
year is gone for eight years."
Lanceiot beat at his forehead with
his clinched fish until the veins in his
neck assumed the proper shade of pur-
PIE. Then, stalking across the floor,
he came back. He knelt in front of
the divinely beautiful girl, whose hair
was making streaks over her gown.
His tone was like the best quality of
| honey: "Syrasella, forgive me-
Give you what?" she murmured,
coyly, as she swept her cheeks with
her long eye-lashes. She was that neat
that she swept them every day.
Give me your heart" he said, in
| deep, wealthy tones, and as the whistles
sounded ushering in the new year her
| tender Eyes" rose above all the tumult
and two loving hearts gave a faithful
imitation of a dynamo working over
time.-N. Y. World.
