An English Explanation.

This is the way a prominent English
paper explains 1t:
The president of the United States.
who receives a salary Of 10000 a
year, must pay for all the food consum-
ed at the White House, and the ex-
penses of getting up an elaborate state
dinner are not small. Cigars and
wines the president buys. and they
must be of the best. He has to main
tain his own equipage. The govern
ment, however, allows him valet; al
so clerk, who opens all his letters.
All other personal servants must he
engaged by the master and mistress Of
the White House.

A Combination Tree.

A pine tree and birch tree have
grown so close together in Woolwich,
Me-, that one trunk serves for both,
sending forth pine branches ON one
side and birch on the other. The union
seems happy one in spite Of the fact
that the two trees are as widely sep
aratcd by the botanists as two well
can be, and the gnarled branches OF
the pine embrace the birch in most
affectionate manner.

George Nuzum was down from the
mountains Monday. He had Just re-
turned from a trip to the Tunnel Site
and the Doane Rambler, to which
places he had taken in a a load of
powder. Mr.. Nuzum, when spoken
to in reference to the road to the
Tunnel Site property and Rambler,
said:
"We are working away at the
small portion of the road that now
remains uncompleted and will soon
have it done. The weather has been
rather rough for several days and has
hindered us some. We are having a
hard time to get men, as there is such
a demand for them in the mining
camps. Everybody is rushing work
to get ready for the winter.
Il came over the new road from
Rambler to the Tunnel Site camp
and found it a very good road. The
people of Rambler intend doing some
o work on it before they call it
finished. When it is completed it
will be fully as good as the road
from Rambler to Battle Lake.
"The ranchmen on the road, especi-
ally those at the head of South
Spring creek, are going to help us on
the road. A day will be set and they
will all come and give us a lift. They
are very much pleased with the idea
of having the road put through, as 1t
will furnish them with a very short
cut to Rambler and the mining camps
at the head of Cow creek canon,
which are affording an excellent mar
ket for their produce.
"Mr. Stegemann, the manager of
the Doane Rambler and the Tunnel
Site Company's property is now in
Chicago. He has 35 men at work
now and intends to double that num-
Der as soon as he gets back. The
company is having 500 cords of wood
put up at the Tunnel Site camp and
700 at the Rambler mine. They are
making preparations to push work
right along all winter.
"The tunnel on the Tunnel Site
property is now in a little over 700
feet and they are expecting to open
up something good before very long.
1t will hardly be possible for them to
fail making one of the very best mines
in the whole district out of that prop
erty."

Mrs. Caleb A. Cook Again Ill.

Word was received here about 3
o'clock yesterday from Pass creek
saying that Mrs. C. A. Cook, who, in
company with her husband, had ar
rived there about noon, was in con
WILSON'S and DR.. Searight was re-
quested to come Immediately. 1t
seems that it had become necessary
to take Mrs. Cook back to the asylum
at Evanston and her husband had
gotten that far on the road when she
vas taken with violent commissions
and was unable to proceed on their
journey.
DR.. Searight procured a livery rig
and went at once to Pass creek to
administer medical aid.

Thos. A. Cosgrif, A. R. Couzens
and j. G. Rumsey all of the firm of
Cosgriff Bros. Co., have been up this
week on a tour of inspection. They
spent a day in Encampment and re-
port that town as very lively and do
ing a good healthy business as a re-
suit Of the smelter being likely to start
soon. They all expressed the utmost
confidence in Saratoga, predicting
that it would be the town of the val
ley and that all of the banking insti-
buttons, large mercantile houses and
other institutions would be located
here, and that Saratoga would be the
residence of all monied men interested
in the mines in both ranges. The
gentlemen left for the railroad on the
noon stage.

A Real Lady From Philadelphia"

Every n who has read the inimit-
able "Peterkin Papers" remembers
the Lady from Philadelphia" She
it was to whom the Peterkins turned
when they didn't know what to do or
how to do it. Comparatively few per-
sons, however, knew that the Lady"
really lived, that her name was Gil
lespie, and that her great-grandfather
was Benjamin Franklin. These facts,
which with many others equally in
ssresting were brought out on the oc-
casion of her death in Philadelphia
the morning of October ID, lend adj
ditional interest to a new department
just begun in The Ladies' Home
Journal, called "The Lady from
Philadelphia" The identity of the
person who conducts this department
is withheld. All that is ~vouchsafed
is that the icy Lady" is an author
ity on all question pertaining to ETH
quette, and good form, and
each month in The journal she will
answer such questions regarding
these points as may be sent in by
young women.

Hurt in a Runaway.

Rufus Housely, the father of W. r.
Housley, who had started to the Phil
lips coal bank for a load of coal, met
with a serious accident last Tuesday,
from which he is laid up in the house.
He had stopped at Lake creek to fill
his water barrel and in turning the
team the wagon tongue dropped
down and the horses started to run.
Seeing that he could not stop them
MI. Housely jumped out, striking on
his left arm and right hand. He was
badly shaken up and a cash cut in
the palm of his right hand. He is
able to be up but will have to go into
dry dock for repairs. The team ran
into ID fence and stopped, meeting
with no further injury. The wagon
was pretty badly wrecked.

Very Fine Specimens of Tubers.

q. w. Woolsey, who lives ON the
ranch of George H. Allen, on Pass
creek, brought this office about a half
bushel of the finest tubers we ever
saw grown in this valley, SO noted
for its fine potatoes. We very much
doubt if anyone in this state has
grown nicer or better potatoes than
the specimens from Mr.. Woolsey's
patch.

Bought One Half Coney Hill Mines.

Charles Topping and Henry Britt
recently purchased a half interest in
the Coney Hill group of mines. This
group of mines comprise the F. A.
Hoyt, Belle A. Hoyt, the Day and
Beatrice claims, situated adjoining
the Kurtz-C hatterton property. They
are all good claims and the prospect
for their speedy development is good.
F. A. Hoyt, the man who negotiat-
ed the deal, was a conductor on the
Cheyenne & Northern for many years
and is now making a success of his
mining ventures.

Fortune in the Rambler Dump.

The old dump on the Doane Rambler
which now belongs to the Battle Lake
Tunnel Site Company has been sampled
and tested in the last two weeks and is
found to contain a fortune. In the
early days OF the mine Geo. Doane was
unable to get miners except some coal
miners he brought from the Union Pa
cific coal mines at Carbon, Wyoming.
All they knew vas to lay on their belly
and mine coal, The rich ore OF the
Doane mine which averaged better than
so per cent. copper was shot up SO fine
that one half OF it was thrown over the
dump with the waste. Since the new
company has taken hold OF the property
Mgr. Stegeman has been having the
dump tested and the estimate placed by
Prof. f. b. Mechling upon the amount
OF ore the dump contains is S,625 tons,
which assays SLIGO in gold, $40 in sill
YER and 500 per ton in copper, or a to-
tai Of s11.O0 per ton making a gross
valuation of s94.975. Figuring a 80 per
cent. matte the dump will net the com
$4,000.
In the lis foot level Of the Rambler
mine while laying track a two foot vein
OF black oxide of copper was uncovered
this week which contains some of the
richest ore ever opened in the mine.
Several blocks OF ore which were thought
to be only green carbonate stain and
have been overlooked for We ars now
prove to be nearly solid copper glance,
simply coated over with wash and cop
per stain. One piece found buried
this week in the dump will weigh a half
ton and is a solid mass OF copper
glance.-Battle Lake Miner.

Fence the Cemetery.

The article in last weeks Sun, con-
corning the cemetery, aroused a great
deal of interest and met with much
favorable comment. 1t seems to be
the general opinion that the owner of
the ground should at least put a
good strong barbed wire fence around
it if he is unable to do any better.
Such a fence would keep the stock
out of the grounds and there would
then be no need, as there is now, to
put a picket fence around each grave
that is marked with a headstone, to
protect it from destruction.
The condition of the cemetery is
acknowledged to be a disgrace to the
town. At present the neglect shown
to the graves there and the general
condition of the grounds seems to
say, in very emphatic language, that
as soon as our dead are out of sight
we care nothing more for them. But,
until the grounds are enclosed and
protected from the marauding bands
of stock, there is little use in trying
to decorate or even mark the graves
of our dead with monuments.
A meeting is called for next Satur-
day, notice of which will be found in
another column, Of all those interest
ed in the matter, to meet at the Gem
etery and cleah the grounds Of brush
and otherwise make them p~resentable.
If the party who owns the grounds
is not able to erect a fence then it is
likely that the citizens of the town
will endeavor to do something them
selves.

Ferris Haggarty Tramway.

A surveying party consisting OF Sur
veyor Frank Cramer, Dick Emory and
Harry Fee passed through town on
their way to the Ferris aggarty mine
where they will u a preliminary sur
vey to the smelter for the Willis George
Emerson tramway. 1t is more than
likely the route will be down the Cow
creek canyon as this appears, with the
exception OF the heavy snow that lays
in the canyon to be the most feasible
route.-Battle Lake Miner.

ScARIWoDA CHILDREN FoUND
One of Them Proves to be Mrs. Flora
Reynolds of This Place and the Other
Miss Losta FRAZIER Of Bozeman Mont.

The Laramie Republican has had
several articles in it of recent date
concerning the whereabouts of two
sisters by the name Of Scariwoda, one
of whose brothers had died and left
them $500.
Mrs. Flora Reynolds proves to be
the youngest of the sisters and tells
an interesting story of her life.
81 la only four years old when
MI. Clay brought my sister and me
from Denver and I of course have
only a very dim recollection of the
matter. My sister, whose name Is
Losta, only stayed with the Clay
family about a year, when a widow
by the name of Frazier offered to give
her a home and so she went to live
with her Within a year or two Mrs.
Frazier moved to Bozeman, Montana,
taking my sister with her and she has
been living there ever since. Mrs.
Frazier is running a hotel at Boze-
man. She must be about 80 years of
age now, though l cannot tell exactly.
We have correspondent all the time.
She took the name of Frazier.
"After living with the Clay family
for two or three years I went to live
with the family of William Crout.
Mrs. Crout had a son by the name of
Jesse and so they changed my name,
as they did not want two Jessies in
the house. l can remember that I
objected very strongly to the change,
but 1 was little and had to give in,
though l always retained Jessie for
my middle name. After Mrs. Crout
died, and Mr.. Crout married Mrs.
Bicktold, l did not stay there very
long, because Mrs. Crout was unkind
to me. After living with them for a
time MI. Crout took me over to live
with his daughter, Mrs. Pryor. /
stayed there for several months and
then went to live with Guy FL. Mich
OILS and wife, on Encampment river.
| remained with them until they NOV
ed to Saratoga, when l went to work
for the family of Fred w. Geddes out
on Lake creek, and 1 worked around
from place to place, until my mar
rage to A. E. Reynolds, of Brush
creek.
II always knew we had two broth
ers and one of them | think was nam
ed Charles and the other John,
though I know very little about them.
l am now 26 years old.
81 don't know when, or who chang
ed my name to "Shywater," but
suppose Mr.. Crout must have done
so, as the name Scariwoda is hard tc
remember and "Shywater" is very
much like it,"
Mrs. Reynolds is now living in
Saratoga with her husband, A. E.
Reynolds and little five year old son.
She is very highly esteemed by all
who know her as a woman of strictly
upright character. Her friends will
all rejoice in her good fortune.
