The Breauwlnners." AS the editor of
the Century said yesterday, there are
Jew instances in American literature
where anonymity has been SO long
and SO successfully kept as in the case
OF this novel. And he might have add
ed that there are few instances in the
history of any literature where so
many claimants have appeared and
disappeared. For whole winter one
American, and not an obscure Ameri-
can, posed as the author of this book.
and was actually introduced to men,
Der of the firm which issued the story.
Fortunately for the American at that
time the publisher himself did not
know who the author was, and thought
he had found him. Mr. Glider, who
was editor of Scribner's when "The
Breadwinners" appeared, knows who
the author is. So do few others.
Most people of any literary informa-
ton have pretty firm conviction that
they know. There is very little doubt
that John Hay, Mr.. Roosevelts secre-
tary of state, wrote "The Breadwin-
ners." He has never admitted that he
did, and he has never consented to
permit Mr.. Glider or any one else to
admit it. But the royalties on the
sale went to Mr.. Hay and still con-
tinue to go to him.
And yet within the week Charles
Frederick Adams is openly put for
ward as the author, and Mr.. Adams
refuses to admit or deny that he is
guilty. BY inference Mr. Adams de-
MES that he is the author, but he does
so in way that will lead many peo-
pie to suspect that he wishes, like SO
many others. to be suspected.
Mr.. Hays refusal to admit the au-
thorship Of this much-discussed novel
was understood in the first place to
have it's excuse in the fact that the
story touched upon the back ground
and people of Cleveland, o., Mr.. Hays
own city.

big gatherings was not only deplorable,

Very different are our modes of to-
day, and the quaint old delaines and pat
termed muslins are delightful made up
with pipings, ruchings and plaitings,
the full gagged skirt hanging in grace
full folds from waist to feet, the pouching
bodice, the elbow sleeves and long
shoulder, surmounted by the simple
picture hat. Look, too, at the hundred

can add to your muslin frock!
Twill tell you of some quaint and SIM
pie muslin gowns suitable for the debu-
tante's wear. One is in cream pin
spotted muslin, the skirt of which is
gagged in at the waist and then inserted
with plated muslin edged on either side
with tiny ruchings of blue bebe ribbon.
These insertions become fuller and
wider as they near the feet, finishing at
last in a mass of billowy frills; as the
wearer lifts her frock one catches
glimpses of much beflounced blue glace

The stable boy, Pierre Maggie, has won

his friend, ex-Sheriff Buttling, won
$4,000 at roulette, married society
girl, and went in for racing horses on
his own account. His first attempt as
an owner was with most unlikely
horse, which he had gratefully named
"Buttling." No one will blame Nc
Ginnis for believing in Buttling, even
at this stage of mere expectation. Aft

a passionate faith, for "Buttling" was

astonished to hear that he had ap-

excellent name changed to Buttling.
Stories from the race tracks-the
true stories-seem to show that for
tune is as tickle as ever, and that the
men who make the big fortunes are
those who do not look on racing as
game of chance. Possibly those whosee
growing evil in this form of gambling
will find special occasion for study in
the case of men like young Maggie, who
neither pays for "tips" nor plays a

CLAIM TOWNSHIP
AT BONANZA CAMP
Sale Of Lots at GOldfield SuS=
pended Temporarily.
Action Brought for Possession Of the
Ground on Which the Town
Is Laid Out.

Trouble has arisen over the owner
ship OF the Goldfeld townsite, and,
temporarily the sale of lots has been
prohibited. An order to that effect
was issued last Saturday by Judge
M. A. Murphy of the Esmeralda
county court, on application of c. f.
Reynolds. Suit has also been filed for
an accounting, return of moneys re-
ceived for lots sold, and possession of
the ground in dispute.
The plaintiffs in the case are
Samuel Fox, James Ennis, Carl
Schmidt and 7. L. Oddie, and the de-
PENDANTS are A. d. Myers, I. d.
Murphy, Harry Ramsey, H. G. Hall,
r. G. Crook, W. ]. Beauchamp, John
Doe, James Styles and Mary Styles
In their complaint the plaintiffs aver
that on May 29th, 1903, they located
two claims which now embody the
townsite of Goldfield; that on August
26th, before the time elapsed in
which they were allowed to do their
/ location work the defendants re-
located the property, and forcibly
prohibited them from doing the work
which they on that day started to
do.
A copy of the complaint has been
served on the defendants, but their
answer has not been filed. Pending
the trial of the issue, which prom
ises to be hotly contested, as the
property is regarded as very valu-
able, the plaintiffs have given bonds
in the sum of 81, 500.
