blue-sleeYed arm around her waist,
apologizing as he did SO by saying:
"Joes kinder skittish, and not bein'
used to petticoats, twill be safer this
way, if you don't mind"
Sarah Ellen blusked, but she bravely
said she didn't mind, and in face, odd as
it may seem, after she got used to the
strong arm that held her so steadily,
she began to think she rather liked it.
After two hours ride, they came to a
one-story mud house, and as Joe turn
ed his head toward the door, she gazed
with curiosity at the first ranch she
had ever seen. To her eastern eyes,
it was rough and primitive, but off
in the distance rose glorious purple
haze of mountain peaks, and the sky
seemed bluer and the atmosphere clear
er than she had ever saw it before.

horse, she looked up and said: MY

through the low door into the living
room of the house. At his CALL d
noiseless Chinaman trotted in with a
tin basin, some water, and dilapi-
dated comb.
The cowboy left her alone, and strobe
out to hitch up the blackboard. AS
she washed the tear stains and dust
from her face, and Strengthened her
wavy hair, she observed that on the
little table lay a well-thumbed gram
mar and arithmetic, in company with
a coverless dictionary.
Through the low, open window float
ed the sound of voices and she saw the
cowboy talking to an evil looking Mex
lean who pointed to the house, and
said with knowing leer:
Vary pretty lady-and a fine night
for love-
The comboy answered quietly:
See here, Lopez, that lady is jest as

ADVENTURE IN THE CAVE.

ALL E1-N L L fN51 IN L II r CAV T..
The next day, mining began in earn
est. 1t was simple enough. We'd swing
the booms out and drop the dredges,
all hands haul away until they were
filed, then up with them and dump the
sand in the sluice box. Louis working
a pump at the head of the sluice for
water supply. The first boxes in the
sluice had boards with holes in them,
at the bottom. but near the end, there
were copper plates covered with quick
silver TO catch the finest gold.
AS have said, it wasn't much differ
ent from oyster fshing-until you look
ed in the sluice boxes. The water
washed the sand down slowly, as it was
heavy stuff, and behind it Jagged a lit
tie crescent of yellow specks. 1t didn't
take many of those specks to make
dollar. while it takes quite a few oys-
tiers.
For three days we worked from first
light till plumb dark, just as hard as
we could. but after that the novelty of
IT kind of wore out and we hit a regu-
lar gait. Beside. we'd been on the boat
so long that our legs ached for a touch
of the shore. At the foot of the cliffs
were caves of different sizes. We pick
ed out one that was back of a beach
where the waves were only moderately
strong, and turned it into a house

Sarah Ellen with emphasis.
And the silence fell upon them.
Suddenly the cowboy cleared his
throat portentously, and began:

effort, he burst out:

Not a very sentimental proposal. but
in his honest eyes, and in the quavnr
in his voice, Sarah Ellen saw the
emotion he could not express. She
swallowed once On twice, and the
walked over to him, and holding out
her hand, said:
"Yes-it's a bargain"
The cowboy gasped-"Well, I'll be
burned" and then he reached out and
gathering her close to the blue flannel
shirt, pressed on her upturned mouth
as tender kiss as ever fell on the Inns
of a New England lady.
Still holding a protecting arm around
her. he turned his head and called
Hey, parson, here's job of spicin'
for you to do, and then I'll hustle back
to the ranch"
Then, as his disengaged arm stole
back to it's former position, through the
brown waves of Sarah Ellens front
hair came a subdued murmur that
sounded like, well, I'll be durned"

A crack ran far up into the roof
through which the smoke of our fire
drew like a chimney. At the same
time, the crack ran so crookedly that
little or no rain came IN.
1t was spring in this part of the
countryside last of November-and
the nights had still a sharp bite to
them that made us glad of the warmth

dredged until about 10 o'clock in the
morning, when the sea grew so high

The Pullman car swayed from side

melancholy desert were a paradise.
The desolate outlook harmonized well
with her own cheerless mood, as her

and to Butte as a gold-producing city.
To Michigan is usually accorded first
place in copper mining, but the place
belongs to Montana. In 1898 the United
States produced 60 per cent. of all the
worlds copper. Of the copper pro-
duced in the United States Butte
turned out Al per cent, Michigan 80
per cent! and Arizona 81 per cent. In
1900 the value of the gold produced
in Montana was $4,S02, III, and of cop
per $39, s27,135. So tits, that while Mon
tana is a great gold producer, it is a
greater copper producer, exceeding IN
the latter mineral and other locality.
Just as Montana is the most fitting
state in the world in which to hold
such gathering of miners as this
promises to be, SO is Butte the most
fitting city to entertain such a gath
ering, for Butte is the center of the
mining industries of Montana. 1t is
city built on minerals. AS one old
time resident expressed it: every
mans backyard is his, mine"
At Butte are located many of tho
greatest and most profitable mines
and some of the largest shelters,
while the three cities of Butte, Ana
conda and Helena may be said to con.
tain by far the greatest percentage Of
the mining industries of the state. In
them are located the largest smelters
and mills in the world, far larger than
anything that is known in any other
mineral-producing country in the
world.
Montana has beenanxioustod display
her wonderful resources to the
miners of the world, and this occa-
sion gives her the sought for oppor-
tunity. She proposes to entertain the
delegates royalty, and to make the
most of the opportunity that is thus
offered her to interest them in her
wonderful resources.
One of the subjects that will come
before this congress will be the selec.
tion of place for holding the next
annual meeting, and strong effort
will be made to take it to Chicago.
By holding the next meeting in Chi
cago it is hoped to attract the atten-
tion Of the law-making bodies of the
country to the Importance of the min
ing industries of the country in order
toeffect the enactment of needed legis-
lation, and it is argued that this can
be done better in place like Chicago
than in any of the smaller commercial
centers of the west. Those in favor
of Chicago propose to make strong
fight to send the next congress to that
place. MAX OWEN.
