SUCCESSFUL WOVEN MINERS.

The world is awaking TO the fact that while
mining must a certain extent be regarded as a
game of chance, 1t is in which knowledge and
skill win the prize and few clever women have
discovered that this knowledge and skill are by no
means beyond the powers of feminine brain.
Mrs. E. C. Atwood of Denver. In a paper read
before the International Mining Congress, held at
Milwaukee in June, 1900. declared that mining is
a business that be made to pay by any ener-
getic woman who will pursue It intelligently" says
Mary E Stickney in The Era OF this month,
giving many interesting examples
Mrs. Atwood might have illustrated her argu-
ment out OF her own experiences, from which
she can tell most entertaining story. With
keen of humor. she delights in recalling the
tenderfoot day when she beguiled into paying
$4,000 for a mine Of mica schist. dazzling ap
pearance so amply corro5orating every statement
of the willy agent as IT seemed, that she had
thought of consulting mining expert or going TO
the trouble and expense of assays on her own
account. The money lost: but so far from
being cast down by this circumstance the ener-
getic little woman but fired with deterTnina-
fon TO study the OF failure that eventually
it might be made the stepping stone to success.
