Boston & Montana Lose Mea-
derville Ground.
DR.. REINS IS A WINNER
Litigation Hinged on the Question Of
Whether the Ground Was
Quartz or Placer.

DR.. John p. Reins Of this city received
a telegram from Washington, D. c., last
night stating that the application for a
patent made by the Boston & Montana
Mining company for a piece of ground
which Mr.. Reins claimed as uartz prop
erty under the name of the Combination
and the Boston & Montana company
claimed as placer had been Cancelled by
the secretary Of the interior.
The decision makes Mr.. Reims win
ner by ten lengths. The property em-
braces between six and seven acres and is
located within the copper belt of Meader-
Vile. It has been in litigation about six
years. Prior to the time Mr.. Reims and
the Boston & Montana company began to
battle each other on the proposition Of
whether the ground was quartz or placer,
James A. Murray and Mr.. Reins and
similar contest over a piece of ground en-
bracing a portion Of the property, title to
which has just been settled. and the
former was defeated, the secretary of
the interior holding that the quartz title
was good.
The decision of yesterday practically
settles the contest between the owners Of
the Bordeaux claim and the Boston &
Montana company in reference to title to
the Bordeaux ground, as a portion Of this
property comes within the boundaries Of
the Boston & Montanas Cancelled placer
application, which was No. S38. The shaft
of the Ella claim is said to be squarely on
this ground.
The Boston & Montana company and
the Bordeaux or Ella owners are now con-
testing each others right to the prem
ises, the former defending the placer title
and the latter the quartz. Much good ore
is being taken from the Ella shaft.

WOMAN'S SUCCESS
IN JOURNALISM.
BY Margaret e. Sangster.

| Journalism has won it's way TO recog-
nition among the professions open to
educated women. Glasses for it, study
are found in the more progressive wom-
ems colleges, and they are very popu-
lar and no doubt serve q good purpose
Ia familiarizing young women with the
use Of their mother tongue and in
teaching them discrimination. terseness
and accuracy in writing ana selection.
A. girl anxious to become self-eup-
porting often feels that her speedlest
pathway is by the road Of the news
paper. Law or medicine or art re-
quires each an imperative term OF study
after graduation from college, but jour-
nalism Is less jealously guarded and no
tedious novitiate is necessary to the de-
termined aspirant. Indeed the only safe
and sure method OF ascertaining wheth-
er or not one may succeed in journalism
is comprised in single word-Try.
1t is like swimming. Your theories
may be splendid as you stand on the
bank, but you will never learn to swim
! out Of the water. The never-to-be.
forgotten Mr.. Squeers, of DothebOys'
hall, exemplifed the situation when he
arst taught his pupils to spell window

the same. You can never be journalist
until you begin; and your best beginning

the obscure and useful role OF the re-
porter.
The newspaper woman in her early days
must be submissive and obliging maid
Of all work. 1t is important that she
shal; know how to spell, how to wrl,e
simple and straightforward English, how
to condense cut off superfluities and tell
large thing in a little space. Equally
lit is essential for her to have mastered
the art Of rapid work.
And she must have insight. The whole
matter OF modern journalism may be de-
scribed in three phrases-to see, to choose,

of the New York World ne was at this
time big enough to saddle a boss and
wait on ole marster.'' He remembered
his master taking him to Richmond. where
he saw the British warships in James riv-
er. He saw Gen. Washington riding on
q big white horse, with gold "aperlotes"
on his shoulders, feather in his hat, and
''Iookin' mighty fine.'
For some years after the war Uncle
Jerry" did little or no work. After the
surrender he remained in the same cabin

Capt. Davis gave Jerry house rent free
as long as he should live In a few years
Rose died, and since then Jerry has lived
with Roses daughter. Maria, who refused
to allow Uncle jerry to be sent to the
