lie education, and Gen. Zurlinden. The
cabinet will meet to-day expressly to
deal with request from Nine. Drey-
fus for a revision of the proceedings
of the court-martial that condemned
her husband. -p-.s.s... .. ...... Il.
AS the cabinet is now practically
unanimously in favor of revision
partly because the ministers are aware
that there is no other method of salts
flying public feeling-the outcome of
the meeting is almost foregone con-
clusion. 1t is not thought that NJ.
Cavaignac's retirement will involve
the resignation of other ministers.
The fact that Gen. Zurlinden has been
in conference with NJ. Faure is taken
to mean that he will succeed M. Cav
aignac at the war office.
According to LIE Soir, M. Faure, who
received M. Cavaignac Sunday. strong
ly urged him to withdraw his resigna-
ton. The paper also asserts that at
the council to-day the president will
endeavor to prevent decision in favor
of revision.
In her letter to NJ Sarrien, the min
lister of justice, Nine. Dreyfus says she
addresses him again, since he alone
has the right to demand revision on
the ground of a new fact" She argues
that Lieut.. Col. Henry's admission of
forgery deprives his dispositions and
acts of all weight, and concludes her
appeal by.calling upon M. Sarrien to
listen to the voice of public opinion
and put an end to the punishment of a
loyal and innocent man."

be good Investment for him. He
sent out one of his agents to negotiate
with the owner. but Mrs. Meadow in
the mean time learned of his intentions
and refused to make any bargain with
his Representatives He had offered
her 100000 for the mine, but she sent
back word that she WOULD not take less
than 100000 for it, and that she would
only deal with him in person. Several
weeks passed and no word was re-
ceived from Sam Houzer, and at last he
presented himself and said that he had
come to take Mrs. Meadow at her
word, and offered her 100000 for the
mine. After some elaboration on her
part she consented to sell and it was
transferred to him.
The new owner took hold of the
mine, and began to operate it, but had
not gone far when the vein of gold was
lost. In the language of mine ex-
perts, it 'bulged.' The operators start
ed to dig to one side, as they believed
without doubt that the vein extended
in that direction. After some time
spent in futile attempts to find the
vein the effort was abandoned, and the
owner found that he had bought a
mine which appeared to be worthless.
He had paid Mrs. Meadow $35O.oOO in
cash, and had given his note for the
remainder. He Immediately made the
offer to deed back the property to Mrs.
Meadow for the $15O,OOO which be still
owed her. She consented to this, for
she knew that he was mistaken about
the worth of the mine, and she be-

Miles City, Mont. She invested quite q
sum and purchased title to a number
of lots in the most promising part of
the city. After few years the prop
,erty appreciated and she realized
quite sum out of the investment. She
Possessed remarkable business sagaci-
ty and understood how to invest her
money. In the meantime she had mar
lied a gentleman named Bud Meadow,
and she still bears his name. He was
a lawyer of some note, and had some
interests of his own, but just at that
time he was in somewhat straitened
owned by himself and partner was not
paying, although it was a very valu-
able possession and could be made to
produce .abundantly if 3 properly
worked. It was learned that prom
inent politician of Helena, Sam Hou-
ger, who was afterwards the governor
of Montana, was anxious to buy the
mine and relieve the owners Of their
debts, which had been incurred as, the
result of*the Improvements IS they had
made.&5 But Mrs. Meadow was too
sharp. The indebtedness of Meadow
and his partner amounted to $11, 900,
and she consented to clear off the debt
if they would deed the title Of the
mine to her in her own name.
.- ''She had the money on hand, as she
had realized about that much off her
investment in Miles City, and the prop
osition being satisfactory to her hus-
band and the other part owner she
bought the mine from them. lii In a
short time she had that mine running
and bringing her imme use profits, for
it was very rich vein Of gold, and was
considered the finest in that section
of the state. It is well known fact
out there that her mine furnished Mrs.
Meadow with surprisingly large in
come, and it is said that one month
she took out $4,000 worth of gold bull
Mon. She was rather peculiar wom-
an: that is, she had peculiar character
istics. She was not very prepossessing
in appearance. and did not dress like
q woman who was the possessor of a
fortune She always carried the bull
lion to the point of shipment herself.
She had little blackboard and fast
horse, and in carrying the precious ore
to the town she packed it away in an
old cloth trunk which she placed in
the front of her vehicle. It was known,
of course, that she owned the mine,
but very few knew how much it was
producing, and so she made constant
trims back and forth to town, carrying
~ nrooio11s pold without even excit-
ing particle Of suspicion. But after
awhile i. was noised around that Mrs.
Meadow had struck a rich vein and
was every day taking out gold which
was worth almost fortune. It soon
got to the hearing of Sam Houzer, and
as he was very wealthy man he con-
cluded that Mrs. Meadows mine would

lieved that there was still prize hid
den in it. After she had taken it again,
she got back her old superintendent,
and directed him how to search for the
vein. She was really practical miner
herself, and after seven days spent in
probing the vein was found, and it
turned out to be as rich as it formerly
was. I am not exaggerating when +
say that the mine imm ediately began
to pay at surprising rate, and during
one month she took out $4,000 worth
of gold bullion
= Mrs. Meadow still has mine possess
sions, and is quite wealthy now, and
has a beautiful home in one Of the
prominent cities of Montana. Her hus-
band is an excellent lawyer, and was
at one time member of the state Leg
islature. She spends part of her time
in travelling and enjoys life to it's fullest
extent. She was in Washington during
the last meeting of the Woman's Rights
society, and met Miss Susan B. An
thony. They formed an intimate ac-
quaintance, and Miss Anthony d was
afterward entertained by Mrs. Nc.
Adow at her home in Montana.
While the women of the society wers
holding a meeting in the parlor of a
prominent hotel in Washington, Miss
Anthony called for contributions for
the cause. The ladies gave according
to their financial ability, but the total
amount was very small, in comparison
with the demands of the occasion.
Miss Anthony informed them that a
great deal more, money must be raised,
and suggested the appointment of d
committee on ways and means. At
this juncture Mrs. Meadow drew out
check book, and wrote her check
for $1,000. She handed it to Miss An
thony, asking her if itswould be sufi-
cient. The astounded lady leader re-
piled that it would be enough, if the
check was good for its face value. She
looked at Mrs. Meadow, who was
plainly dressed, and the expression on
her face Indicated that she doubted
whether the check was worth any,
thing at all. Mrs. Meadow said she
would go to the bank with her. after
the meeting was over, and have it
cashed.
Miss Anthony then informed tho
ladies that she had check for 81, 900,
which would be more than sufficient
for the present emergency of the So
ciety. The meeting adjourned, and
Miss Anthony went to the bank with
the donor, and the check was cashed
at once. That was the first meeting
of the two ladies, who afterwards be-
came such fast friends.

WHAT HAWAII MAY DO.


Hawaii would have been annexed,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean, by Eng
land, Germany or Japan long ago but
for the United States protests: but we
cannot forever play fast and loose
with it, We must take it ourselves, or
let some other power hold it. for it
cannot much longer sustain itself. 1t
is all very well to talk of our guar
anteeing its independence. But It
might be more costly, both in money
and life, to protect it than to annex
it. Moreover, suppose that in the
event of our rejecting the offer, the
Hawaiians were of their own motion
to place themselves under European
projections; how then could the Mon.
roe doctrine be applied? We may he
bound to protect Hawaii against for
eign Intervention, but surely we can.
not forbid the free action of q nation
The Hawaiian question presses. II
ought to be settled quickly, and by an
nexation.

bore holes through the hard tack and
ate everything before them, until it
was feared that the stock of provi-

your attention to the fact of which |
speak and you will find that it was
on information which had been fur

And when | visited Hawaii / became
acquainted with the merits of your

/ was also convinced that they were
capable of self government, and with
the right of electoral suffrage and oil
citizenship, based not on the posses
sion of property, but based on the
| possession of character and intelli

I do not blame your countrymer
for doing what they can to set them
selves free from despotic govern

pure and simple. I have the hope
that the annexation treaty will not b,
