and the startled miner, as wei! a,
the few freighters who were lounp-
ing on the grass, watched every
detail of camp life where women
did the cooking. There were an
elderly man and woman, who
settled down comfortably with
their pipes while a sprightly girl
did all the work, even to looking
after the restless cattle as thew
wandered about. She was here
and there, like a bright. plumed
bird fitting from shadow to sun
shine.
One freighter who was bold
enough to approach the camp over
which the women presided was in
formed that they had crossed the
plains from Arkansas. Their stock
was tired and they had decided to
rest i'll that little valley for several
days, before going on to West Fork
in search of employment.
Above the miners cabin, and
about the lake, the grass waved
like a meadow ready for the mower
The stock of freighter or prospetor
had never been permitted to pass
the cabin and sluices that blocked
the narrow valley at the outlet of
the lake. In the evening when
the sun was behind the forest line
to the west. the cattle rushed bv
the cabin. The miner had returned
to his work ten yards from the
house. He advanced as the cattle
came in view and tried to stampede
them back; but the hungry beasts
would not leave the little meadow
He waved his arms and raved like
a madman, but in vain; the gentle
cattle refused to leave the rich,
ripe gress.

beard with his rough, cracked fn-
gers. He stood there dumb, watch

forward to the broader meadow by
the lake, and farther from the
mine. She was a fair picture =

"A good base ball manager can COM

it is not surprising to learn that Pitts
