Husbands Partner.
Mrs. Catherine V. Waite, aged II, Is
about to form law partnership IN
Denver, Colo, with her husband, for
mer Judge Charles B. Waite. The firm
will be c. B. & C. V. Waite, and friends
will be disappointed if the aged couple
do not make some of the hustling
western firms do their best to maintain
prestige. Mrs. Waite, who is now in
Detroit, has lived in Chicago at various
tines since 1865, and her home is at
present with her daughter, Mrs. Lucy
Waite, 9S LOOMS street. She has been
a lifelong friend of Susan B. Anthony,
and is one of the most remarkable
women of the west. Having lived In
many states of the union, Mrs. Waite
is going to Colorado because she be-
lieves it has the only atmosphere con-
genial to women Of business ability
and who desire voice in the admins
tration of public affairs. The versa
tility of this energetic woman is shown
by the fact that she has been farmer,
a teacher, a lecturer, an author, a
a contractor and manager
of large moneyed interests, and has at
tanned eminent success in each of these
allings.-Cincinnati Commercial Trib-

PERILS OF DEATH VALLEY.

Panamint mountains on the west ana

seventy-five miles long and at its mar
rowest point but eight miles wide. Inc
prevailing winds in Death valley are
from the west. Though originating IN
the Pacific ocean and saturated with
humidity in travelling the intermediate
distance, they are intercepted by the
lofty peaks of the four ranges Oh
mountains, which absorb all OF their
moisture, so that by the time they
reach the valley all humidity has as
appeared. The blasts are as II heateu

can survive the intense heat. Even

Is in the months of greatest heat that
the sand storms of Death valley are
most deadly. They rage with an IN

and dimming the light of the sun.
