Jjit In charge of a telegraph of
flee in one of the stations on the
Louisville and Nashville railroad in
Kentucky. The people of that state
were divided in their sympathics be
tween the Confederate and Union
sides, most of them being Confedcrates.
Jenny St Clair, however belonged to
stanch Union family and was her
self a UniOnist.
Those were times when raids were
made by the ConfcdcratcS behind the
Union armies for the purpose of har-
asSing their encmy's communications.
Jcnnys post was far in the rear of
the Union advance, but she knew that
at any time the town was liable to be
captured and the first place the raid
erS always took possession of was
the telegraph office Jenny used TO
wonder what she should do if they
swoopcd down upon her Office, and her
thoughts finally resulted in Il plan of
action in such an event.

There before him was bonanza ore body

repaid the bank its 100000 and had on de-
posit $50, OOO total of $35O.0OO added to
his wealth in thirty days, or at the rate OF
$12, 600 per day.
Some carloads of his ore ran as high as
$50, 900, and from that time until the pres
ent his good fortune has never faltered. His
mine never failed in its production of fabu-
lous wealth, but month after month poured
money into his lap with lav1shness prob
ably never equaled even in Mexico, the
home Of bonanza mines.
With scarcely more improved machinery

made not less than 50 100000.
With each succeeding stage of develop

dawn, and the immensely and marvellous
richness of this great bonanza seemed to
grow with each succeeding day until in

the 100000 would about represent his

Former Senator John P. Jones Of Nevada,
who paid visit to Paral, Mexico, a few
weeks ago, called upon Pedro Alvarado at
the latter's home. Alvarado was greatly
pleased that the veteran miner-statesman
of the United States should call. Through
an interpreter they discussed mining in all
its details.
Senator Jones told of his experiences in
the old days with the Comstock and other
mines In the far west, and Alvarado
evinced the greatest interest. When Jones
told him of his new interests adjoining
those Of Alvarado's at Paral, the young
Croesus expressed the desire that they
should ever be friends. Alvarado contem-
plated for a considerable time visit to
