One is a thoroughbred st. Bernard
the other cross between Great Dane
and bloodhound, and both strangers
to one another until Friday afternoon
when, securely muzzled and with proper
solemnity, they were formally intro
duced. The ceremony was an interest
ing one-but they will know one an
other better before they are through
with the trip. Mrs. Crane regards these
great brutes with warm affection, for, as
she says, "they are to be her children,
ing months of exposure. trial, or, per-
haps, danger"
Mrs. Cranes description of the manner
in which this journey upon which she
has just started is to be accomplished
is both interesting and diverting. The
idea just entered her head last August,
and she has been working steadily and
systematically to accomplish her object
ever since. She has interviewed every
body who returned from that region, and
finally, through chance and in the most
unexpected manner, the way was
opened. and she grasped her oppor-
tunity.
A man, stranger in the city. was
taken to call upon Mr.. and Mrs. Crane
one evening by an old friend Of theirs,
who had made a neat little fortune in
the Klondike region, and the subject
turned upon the gold fields. The stranger
told OF an offer he had from an eastern
magazine syndicate to go there, but his
health was not strong, and his wife had
about persuaded him to refuse.
Then some of Mrs. Cranes past work
and experiences came up in conversa-
tion. The stranger seemed interested,
came again to call, with his wife, and,
TO make long story short, the offer was
transferred to Mrs. Crane. on condition
that she would not divulge the name of
the syndicate. A correspondence en-
sued, and finally the contract came,
properly signed and sealed--the die was
cast.
Mrs. Crane admits frankly that she
has been dying to tell all about it,
and, for fear that she might be tempted
too strongly to show the contract. she
has kept 1t locked up tightly in safe
deposit box in the bank ever since it
came" By this contract, which is to
last for one year, Mrs. Crane Is to re-
ceive 500 month. besides her ex-
penses; and, in addition, she will re-
ceive extra pay for all she writes.
Five hundred dollars toward her ex-
penses will be advanced to her before
she starts through the pass. Her arti-
cles are to be Of historic and de-
scriptive character, and she is privileeed
to write for the papers any other letters
or communications she likes. Besides
this. she has credentials from the
Smithsonian institution at washington.

INDUSTRIAL J0TTINGS.
Fire in a Mine at Summit Hill
Which Has Been Burning
Since 1S59-Method OF
Extinguishing 1t.

Concerning the fire in the mine at
Summit Hill, Carbon county, which has
beer raging since 1859 Hon. Lemuel
Riley. president of the Lehigh Coal and
Navigation company writes
"On the subject Of the mine fire on
this company's property at Summit
Hill. would say that l cannot End a
record of any report having been pub
lishcd on this subject, with the eXcep-
ton of a statement made in the annll-
al report of the company in the year
1859. in which was the following:
"'In the month of February. 1859, n
fire from some unknown cause broke
out in the rubbish of an abandoned un-
derground working. near old slope No.
/: which, in spite of all the attempts
to extinguish it, has made some head
way since: fortunately its locality is
confined to a portion of the mine al
ready worked out and therefore of not
much value. Measures will shortly be
taken to prevent the fire from extend
ing to the working mines. 1t can
doubtless be kept under control, and
will be ultimately eXtinguished.'
Since that time the fire has been
burning with more or less vigor. and
has extended over an area OF about 20
acres, all of which had been previously
mined over. During the last two years
a number of bore holes have been driv-
en- from the surface which are used
for passing fine coal dirt and water into
the mine for the purpose of slushirS
the openings where the fire might cX-
list.
This process has met with success.
and the area Of the fire has been great
ly contracted until we now have il
under control, and hope within n short
time to have it entirely eXtinguished,
When this is accomplished, the mining
operations viii be resumed in the burnt
district. and it is believed that a very
large amount of coal which was left
in the early mining operations. and
which has not been destroyed by fire,
will be recovered
