The lie Roi mine is worth more to
our corporation than to any other COM

corporation holds 500 acres on Red

yaIeo Strike Improving.

The strike In the yaleo, mentioned
last week, is proving UP In good shape,
says the Park Record, every shifts
work showing the vein to be larger
and stronger. The drift is being run
to the west and owing to water
course having been struck early in
the week the report got out that nm
immensely large cave had been encoun-
tered. The character OF ore now being
extracted shows much gray copper,
while some native copper has been en-.
countered. The management Is high

the Vaieo is going to meet the fondest
expectations of It's owners.

Two Cows Stormed n Barbed-Wire

Two Cows Stormed n Barbed-Wire
Fence to Rescue Their Calves.
The editor of the Condor (Ure.) Globe
saw deed of va;or lately that was
worth recording as well as seeing. A
herd of cattle, among them two cows
accompanied by their calves, were graz
ing in tall, dead grass when the calves
became separated little way from the
rest of the cattle, and some wolves
started in pursuit of them. After run
ming about 200 yards the calves came to
a high, five-wired, barbed-wire fence,
and, being small, managed to get
through it,. On the other side of the
fence was an open pasture.
The wolves quickly followed the
calves through the fence. and were rap
idly running them down on the other
side, when the two cow mothe;'s tiscov-
cred what was going on. Each uttered
a loud below, hoisted her tail and
started for the rescue.
1t appeared TO be Il hopeless chase. for
he fence interviewed, and the cows were
artainly much 100 large to get IL nunh

THE ORIGINAL HANDY MAN.

He Lives In California and Is n Jack
C All TraIcs.
In one of Frank Z. Stocl:ton's anus
ing stories there is q character of q jack
of-all-traGes and general utility man,
who is good at everything. He can do
anything, from building a house to n
hencoop, and is just as handy in most
other lines as in that of carpenter.
Mr.. Stockton might have got the ma
terial for this character from a man
who lives in National City, Cal, says the
Philadelphia Times. He is willing to do
anything from nursing a sick person to
building a church. There is no sort of
work in which he will not engage if
paid for it, and he is versatile enough to
make himself useful in pretty nearly
anything he undertakes.
That he is slever, not only with his
hands, but with his pen, is proved by
the following advertisement, which he
inserted in newspaper in his town:
THE ORIGINAL
HANDY MAN!
Still lives and loves to labor.
Makes Door and Window Screens, Files
Saws, Sharpens Cutlery and Fits Keys.
Repairs and Polishes Furniture, Makes
Store Fixtures and Does Gen
eral Jobbing.
He is at home in the sick room to offer
consolation to those who mourn, and pa
tiently nurses by day or night the sick in
body. God bless the Handy man and keep
him SAFE
He may be found at his old knoll on Street
S, near Avenue 2.

"The nervous strain on the:engineer

said one OF them the other day, reports
the Detroit Free Press. Not only the

but there is the constant fear of run

accident, no matter how innocent the
engineer, is, always kind of hoodoo.
What was my first accident? I shall
never forget it. If it had been traced
on my mind with a streak of lightning
it couldn't have made a more lasting
impression. a..t-~ SIS

country where there were few people

lying across the track not ten feet in
front of the engine. stopped quick as
possible, but too late, of course. We
had run over him, and the lifeless body
was under the wheels. We got out to
look for him, and found his hat, piece
of his coat sleeve and one of his shoes,
but the rest seemed to be further back
under the train. I backed up the en-
CINE and got out to look again. There
