proprietorship, Frank arose and, going
to the piano, searched for and found
a well worn song. Without word he

color rose in Alice's face, but she turn

verse, to her surprise Blanch was stand

the next one. When it was finished
Frank insisted on repetition, and aft

the sweet old time songs SO familiar
to all. Then Alice left the room to
bring in light lunch, and Frank
seized the opportunity to say, "Well,

taking her face in his hands, kissed
her.

stepped out of the boat. Only few
steps up messy bank offered it's temp
tation, and with quick gallantry he
drew his coat off and spread it for her
to sit upon.
Its nice and cool here" she said,
"but we must not stay long. Blanch
will be waiting
Frank had thought many times of
what he would say and how he would
say it, but now that the critical mo-
ment had come his we'll chosen words
vanished. He had remained standing
and for a moment looked at Alice as
she sat with hat hidden face, and
then his heart-burst came.
''Miss Page" he said in a low voice,
'you must know what l want to say,
and-and I've come all the way from
Maine to say it, and can you-is there
any hope for me? Is there just
little?"
He paused, but no answer came, only
her head sank tride lower, and now
even the tip of her chin was invisible
beneath the hat. It may be the move
ment emboldened him, for in an in
slant he was beside her on the ground
and had one hand prisoner.
'"Tell me, Alice" he pleaded, ''is
there any chance for me? Say just
one word-only one! Say 'yes'!'
The prisoned hand was at his lips
now, and then she raised her face, and
oh, divine sight!-those blue eyes
were filed with tears.
One instant flash Of heaven only,
and then a change came. She arose
quickly and, turning away, said half
petulantly: ooh, please don't speak of
that now and spoil our visit. Let us
go back to the mill.'
But still he held the little hand, and
as she tried to draw it away he said
pitifully: "Do you mean it, Alice?
Is it no? Oh. don't let me go away
without one word Of hopev'
Then she raised her one free arm
and, resting it against nearby tree,
pressed her face upon it and almost
whispered: ooh, don't ask me now!
I can't say yes and can't say no."
Il shall believe that your heart says
yes" he responded quickly, slipping
one arm around her waist, "and until
you do say mo- I shall keep on loving
you just the same"
She drew herself away and, turning
a piteous face toward him, exclaimed,
Don't, please, say another word now,
or I shall hate myself as long as I
live if you do"
For one ..oment he stood dumfound-
ed, and then it dawned upon him.
| Forgive me, sweet Alice, he said
softly, ''for speaking too soon. I be-
lieve know why you feel as you do,
and shall go away hoping that in
time you will come to know my mother
better. AM. since you have said that
you can't say no. shall anticipate
that some time it will be yes Now
we will go and gather lilies.''
Then, as he led her to the boat, his
arm once more stole around her waist,
and this time she did not try to escape
its pressure
When, two days afterward, the broth
er and sister were ready to depart,
Blanch put one arm caressingly around
Alice and whispered, "Now, remember,
you have promised to make me a visit
next winter, and you must keep your
promise"

go with me to call on her. She is
mighty proud, and I imagine that is

"a nice little scheme responded
Blanch, "but what will mamma and
EIDE say?''
"Oh, never mind them,' answered
the plotter. ''They need never know
it. Just tell them you are going to
Saratoga with me for a few days. We
will go there If you like, only we will

"Well, you will have to stay here

But why must we wait four days?'
asked Frank petulantly.

Another reason is I mean to pay you

on the Ely road IA miles northeast of
Hamilton. 1t was learned from Q. H.
HUI, who returned from Capt. w.
Moorman's Monday, that the most de.
structive cloudburst occurred Friday
evening. 1t was about $50 when the
water reached the canyon, through
which it tore three feet deep carrying
everything with it. Captain Moorman's
house is on a slight elevation and the
water rose to within an inch of it, but
it escaped injury. The second crop of
hay, and part of the first crop that was
baled, chickens, bridges, ETC., were
swept away, the loss ~aggregating $4,000.
Mr.. HUI says that for three-quarters of
an hour an immense volume of water
swept through the canyon. Two miles
up the canyon from Moorman's at the
old Shekels place, now owned by
Thomas Rosevear, considerable damage
was also done. Mr.. Rosevear lost a fine

washed away.

Pine Copper Company. who has been
at Ely for some time. vas an arrival
from there Sunday and continued on
to San Francisco by special train which
awaited him in Eureka.
Just before leaving Ely, Mr.. Requa
was officially notified by telegraph of
his appointment as general manager Of
the New York and Nevada Company's
property at that place. Mr.. Requa, &C
companied by his family, returned
from Oakland, CAL, by Fridays train,
and continued his trip to Ely by private
conveyance. He will begin active
operations upon the properties of the
two companies at once, a vast amount
OF development work being already out
lined.
The experimental concentration plant
which has just been completed at the
Ruth mine was put in operation Thurs
day of last week, and the results Of the
tests to save the metallic contents of
the Ruth ore, will determine IL the

justified in erecting a large reduction

The plant consists of one Huntington

sizers and from there to the respective
concentrators. while the coarse material
goes into the Huntington mill. where
it is wet-crushed before reaching the
classifiers, or concentrators Gravity
plays on important part in the construc-
ton Of the plant because of the limited
space and incline of the hillside upon
which it is built. However, from the
time the ore is loaded into the car at
the bottom of the mine until it has
left the concentrators a finish product
it is not touched by hand. The water
supply for the mill is pumped over from
the Copper Flat mines, a distance of
one and a quarter miles.
