Il
She was not feeling very well, and the
ceaseless song of a cricket in the wood
box and the occasional put, put, put
ting" Of snowflakes that came down the
chimney and melted on the Goals gave
her feeling Of intense loneliness.
Miss Amelia had gone across the street
to carry q plate of hot rolls to some
poor people. Coming in. she opened and
closed the door quickly to keep out the
biting air. Throwing off her cloak in
the hall, she ran in towards the fire, ex-
claiming: why, mamma, why are you
sitting here without the lights?"
Mrs. Conklin turned a sad face to-
wards her and replied: Daughter, I
like the freight when I am sad and
troubled"
What in the world is troubling you,
mamma, dear?" r oi3.'ll.
II was Just thinking Of you, Amelia"
"Why, mamma, / am just as well 40
I can be, and am always happy when
you are. What can the trouble BET"
She sat down on footstool, folded her
hands on her mothers knee and looked
anxiously up into her face.
Daughter, I know you have plenty
of this old worlds goods, but after
awhile, LIDO not know how soon, will
join your dear papa, and then you will
be left alone. You have seen the day
when you could have married the COM
gresham Of our district, or the richest
man in the state, but you have let all
such chances go for the sake Of Jack.
He is a dear fellow. l know, and be-
lieve love him as we'll as II he were
my own son, but fear you are going to
keep on playing with him till you lose
him, and then you will find that good
chances do not come every day to q girl
of your age"
Amelia shuddered and blazing fagot
sent myriad shadows dancing on floor
and walls. Mamma, have sworn In
my heart, q thousand times, that I'd
never let anyone know 1t, but now will
have to tell you. Jack has never pro-
posed" ..e.t

County Fair Association.

There seems to be considerable en-
thusiasm on the streets in regard to
the mass meeting to be held at the
County Court House next Wednesday
might to organize a County Fair Asso-
citation. New advocates of the propo-
sition are springing up on all sides.
and it is doubted il there will be
room in the Court House for all those
who are signifying their intention of
attending.
The Chamber of Commerce is pre-
pairing for distribution to it's members
and others circular letter. calling
attention to this mass meeting. and
urging the members to be present, to-
gether with their friends.
1t is to be noted that at this mass
meeting nobody will be asked for any
money. or to obliRate himself in any
way. We think that this is good
move, for the reverse has been the
cause of many slim meeting when a
like matter was to come up.

Work to Commence on

Senator Warren. who remained
here after the adjournment of congress
to obtain. if possible. the adoption by
the reclamation service of the irriga-
tion project for the utilization of the
waters of the North Platte river IN
Wyoming, was notified today by the
secretary of the interior that an ap-
portionment OF 100000 had been made
to commence work on what is known
as the Pathfinder project.
This contemplates the erection of an
immense storage dam in the narrow
canon of the North Platte river in
Natrons county. six miles below the
mouth of the Sweetwater, and about
40 miles southwest of the city of Cas-
per.
The channel of the Platte river will
be utilized as the main canal to con-
vey the storage water in the irriRa-
tion season to land in the Plate valley

western Nebraska. The system when
complete, contemplates the irrigation

ident's friend mixed things up for the
Wolcott people in good style.
The real fight of the convention was
whether it should be dominated by
the Wolcott people or the anti VOL
cottites. From the delegates selected
to the national convention, it would
appear that the Wolcott people were
the whole thing.

son Adams at the head cut quite a fig
ure and was successful in landing
Charles f. Caswell as delegate to
the nationl convention, from the Con
gressional district. Really" said

OF course it was an all Hogg con-

more than anything was a life sized
portrait of a porker on canvass. which
had attached thereto head of Mr..

between the two, when the real Hogg
got up alongside of the other hog that
the crowd yelled with delight.

Bering Sea Expedition.

Upon his return from Mexi-
co the latter part of the month
Lieut.. Horace K. Devereux, will
prepare to lead an expedition
into the Bering sea to explore
the surrounding country for tin,
which is known to exist there
in enormous deposits.
The announcement in itself is
simple, but it involves a gigan-
tic scheme of a New York syn
dicate to uncover millions in tin
deposits on the Bering coast.
The expedition which is to be
in charge of Lieut.. Devereux, is
a big undertaking, and the num-
Der of men who will go into the
unexplored country will repre-
sent a miniature army. There
is now being outfitted on the
Pacific coast a big vessel for
the exclusive purposes of this
expedition, and a big invest
ment of capital is involved in
the enterprise.
The news was sent out from
Tacoma, Wash, last night that
the expedition was preparing to
move and that the well-known
rough rider, who served with
President Roosevelt in the San
Juan campaign, would head it.
Lieut.. Devereux is now in Mex
leo, in the vicinity of Guatema-
la, where he went a few weeks
ago with J. S. Stevens, also a
well-known rough rider and
wealthy clubman, who has made
Colorado Springs his home for
many months at a time. The
two are in Guatemala on min
ing business and are expected
to return the latter part of the
month and start on the Behr-
ing sea expedition about June
ISt.
The journey which Lieut.. Dew
ereux and his army of men pro-
pose making is a perRous one,
and will doubtless be filled with
adventures and even hardships.
1t will take several weeks to
make the journey, and accord
ing to present plans of the syn
dicate, about nine months will
be spent in the field making
explorations.
1t is understood that New
York and foreign capital are
back of the enterprise. Mr..
