DO YOU KNOW r

The Chicago Tribune of the 10th
inst. contains a portrait OF a iaiss
Alma Parvin, accompanied by the
short biographical sketch,
from which readers may draw their
own conclusions. The young lady rs
sided in Las Vegas last year and
her stay here visited various
resorts. The article says:
Miss Alma Parvin, the young wo-
wan who recently was lost in the
mountains Of New Mexico, where
visiting relatives in Waukegan. She
went to New Mexico with a party of
friend on a pleasure trip several
weeks ago, and, while in tbs noun
tains, became separated from the
rest of the party.
Miss Parvin found a little cabin
which, fortunately contained some
provisions, and thinking her friends
would return for her, she prepared
to make herself comfortable. With
only a burro and a dog for company,
she waited for the return OF the
party. AT night the wolves howled
about the cabin, but Miss Parvin re.
tanned hsr nerve and continued to
hope. Ten days passed before the
young was rescued by a parry
II travellers.
Miss Parvin is the dughter of New
ton r.. Parvin, librarian at Cedar
Rapids, La. During the recent big frs
in Cedar Rapids Miss Parvin helped
care for the victims, and she became
SO interested in the work she plans
coming to Chicago to train as q

5000 people. There are certain econ

which a united city could enjoy
which are impractical to two. small
err towns. Then there is also the
unity of action in the work of secur
ing new industries, railroad extension
and legislative favors which would be
possible to a united and greater Las

consolidation, is to be a union of the
two postofices to which there is no

ton and the owners of the premises
IN which the postofiice that will be
discontinued is located.
