BIGGEST COLI NUGGET EVER DISCOVERED.
dence men, but worth SO, 1t is
twelve inches long and weighs about
ninety pounds.
On the Portland Beach claim In the
Nome district seven men and a cook
last winter cleaned up $421 900 worth
Of gold In sixty days. The cost of op-
Grating the mine, including labor and
coal, during this period was $500. On
an adjoining claim $250.000 was taken
out. The summer mining season has
been shortened this year by bad storms.
but the total yield for the year will be
above that of any previous year owing
to the fact that winter mining has
proved SO successful. Last winter was
the first time that mining on an extern
siye scale was tried during that sea
son, and it proved practicable.
In some mines where u shaft of con
siderable depth has to be sunk in order
to reach the pay streak winter mining
is more economical than summer min
ing because there Is less danger of the
mine caying in or being flooded by wa
ter from melting When the
ground is frozen solid 1t may be tun-
neled with comparative ease and it il
not necessary to board up the shaft.
AS timber is worth $40 a thousand feet
in Nome, his latter feature is one of
no small Importance.
Every mine is equipped with a boiler
and a hose which carries the steam to
the mine. Attached to the end of the
hose is IA long piece of steel pipe, drawn
to a point and perforated with two
holes a short distance back of the
point. The steel pipe, or nozzle, is
driven into the bank by means of a
sledge, and when the steam is turned
on the gravel is thawed out for three
or four feet in all directions. Work
men shovel the gravel and dirt into
large buckets, which are dumped near
the mouth of the mine. Samples are
taken frequently, and the amount of
gold is ascertained, so that it is posi-
BILE at any time to estimate the value
of the dump where the pay dirt is de-
posted. In the spring the dump is
cleaned up, the gold being washed out
oy means of sluice boxes, and this con
dudes the seasons work.

THE REALM OF
UNHEALTHY
By r PRESTON



Allen strobe across the grounds In
the mellow warmth of that early sum-
mer afternoon and sought his fayorite
retreat-a rustic seat in the shadow of
the beeches zeal the northern wall. He
opened a magazine he had borrowed
from the superintendent Office and
stroye to interest himself in the pages,
but the articles seemed to be composed
of meaningless jumbles of words, and
the illustrations seemed distorted and
unreal. He dropped the magazine with
a sigh and closed his eyes. He was
very, very tired.
He was afraid, too, that Thompson
would come along and worry him
about the codicils of that will. Thomp-
son had been dead these five years,
and, moreover, those codlcils had been
fixed to his satisfaction long before his
demise, but Thompson seemed totally
Indifferent to the trouble he was caus-
ing. Instead of staying peacefully in
his grave he came poking along at any
old hour of the day or night asking
most absurd questions and making all
sorts of annoying suggestions.
Allen had spoken to the superintend-
ent about Thompson that very after
noon. He had said ~pointedly that II he
were to stay here they must keep
Thompson out. The superintendent
had been very kind. He had assured
Allen the matter would be attended to.
He babe him worry over 1t no more.
And then the superintendent had look
ed at him pityingly. Allen was keen
enough to recognize the pity In that
glance.
1t was strange that they should pity
him; everything was strange. Nothing
had been real since that day In the
courthouse when he was conducting
the states case against the election re-
peaters-when the walls had caved In
30 suddenly and he had felt the
strange, tingling sensations in his toes
and finger tips and some one had put
his arms about him just as the black
ness had come on.
They told him-the doctors n the
n~urses-that this place, where he had
awakened, was a private sanltarium;
that he was overworked and must

wont you Sit DOWN. he asked, mo-
tioning her to the seat.
She caught up the magazine from the
ground. Cant I read to your" she
asked.
"If you would be 80 good" said he.
II tried to read myself. but somehow I
couldn't seem to grasp he thread of
things. l hope Thompson won't conie
poking around" he added.
Thompson has been forbidden the
grounds" she said r%eassuringly, and.
opening the magazine, she began to
read In a sweet, low voice that soothel
Allen wonderfully. She read until sun
set, and Allen, to his Infinite Joy, found
he could grasp the meaning of all she
read.
After that they met ut the beaches
every pleasant afternoon. She always
brought n book or a magazine, and Al
len, seated on the ground before her,
found his interest in life returning.
Moreover, Thompson had ceased to
trouble him. He began to feel that
some time In the future matters would
adjust themselves properly. AS to the
present, he was content to sit at her
feet and listen to her full, rich voice.
One afternoon when the reading was
ended for the day and the sun made
long shadows of the trees Allen rose
and stood looking at her thoughtfully.
You see," he said, II don't know
whether you are real or only a phan-
tom like Thompson, and so l may
speak freely. If you are real, l love
you. If you are unreal-well, then l
want to stay here like this for the rest
Of my days"
The girl flushed scarlet. She dropped
the book and fled across the grounds.
Allen stood watching her flight with n
puzzled frown.
Suppose she Is just another phan.
tom like Thompson-suppose she Isl"
he muttered, and the bare thought of
such a possibility made him sick at
heart.
1t came like a flash. Allen was walk.
ing toward the beeches one sunny aft
ernoon when something seemed to snap
inside his skull. He stopped In his
tracks and stood for u moment dazed
and trembling. Then n great JOY well.
ed up in him. The numblng fog had
fallen from his mind. Everything was
perfectly clear now. 1t was all over;
he was a we'll man again. He could
take up his life where he had dropped
1t.
He made his way to the beeches and
sat down, but as he did so a sudden
fear frightened his throat. How about
this girl, who had come to mean SC
much to him? Was she a reality, or
had she been only IN image of his tired
brain? Suppose the latter were the
case!
He heard voices and lifted his eyes,
Across the lawn the superintendent
was approaching, and with him was
the girl. Allen leaped to his feet and
ran forward.
THANK God" he cried beside himself
with Joy.
The superintendent looked at him
narrowly for a moment and then seized
his hand.
"Ah." he said. II thought 1t would

found, so far as known, was
that discovered in the Nome
district of Alaska on No. 5
bench claim on Anvil creek. In stor-
ing gold for the use of mankind nature
seems to have favored the Nome dis
trict especially and big nuggets are
common in that vicinity, but this par
ticular nugget is away beyond the
usual size, and a person attempting to
steal it would not find it easy to carry
off. 1t could not be put in the vest
pocket, and to lift it with one hand re-
quires considerable muscle. It's weight
is 1872 unces and Its value $3,276. The
big lump of gold was struck by a
miner who hit it with his shovel when
digging Il post hole. The nugget, which
is the property of the Pioneer Mining
company, is displayed in the territorial
wing of the United States government
building at the Lewis and Clark ex-
position at Portland. 1t is part of the
exhibit made by the Nome chamber of
commerce and is in charge of ]. ]. I'm
derwood. An ingenious arrangement
was devised to permit of close inspec-
ton of the big golden lump. This and
some other nuggets, to the value alto
gether of $4,000, were put in a wire
cage so constructed that a person could
put his hand through and lift the mug
get, but could not pull 1t out. Over
the chunk of gold was placed a legend
reading, You can lift the nugget. but
don't take it away" Lest some one
should attempt to take 1t away, despite
he warning. a man who wears a re-
volver in his belt stays in the cage.
He says that no one has yet tried to
steal it, but that visitors who think
that they can pick off a bit Of gold
with a finger nail or penknife are not
uncommon.
The output of gold from the Nome
district from 1899 to 1904 inclusive
was $40, 100000. This is represented
in the exhibit at Portland by Il pile of
gilt blocks fifteen feet high. The size
of each block is exactly equivalent to
the output of gold in the year it rep
resents. The biggest block is at the
bottom and is thirty-one inches In di-
ameter. 1t is equal in size to gold
worth $4,000 900, the output of Nome
and the Seward peninsula in 1904.
Near this pile of gilt blocks is a gold

He turned to the girl beside him.
"Oh, by the way, Mr.. Allen, this Is
my daughter"
Allen laughed happily as he saw the
girls face crimson.

THE NEWEST OIRDLES
Tapestry Is the Very Latest in Hand
some Belts.

The woman who has an eye to the
beautiful cannot do better than make
herself several of the new tapestry cir
dies in different shades These are wider
in the back than in the front. and are
fashioned Of the most beautiful bits Of
tapestry embroidery. In the front the
girdle is caught with a buckle about as
big around as half a dollar. From this
the size ranges up to a buckle as big
as a plate.
One of the finest tapestry girdles Of
the year was in ole ivory color. It was
worked in the finest of eross-stitcFl en-
broidery. In the middle of the back
there was applied a big tapestry pansy.
In the front a pansy buckle fastened
the girdIe.
1t is very much the thing to take one
of these girdles and pass it through a
Louis XIV coat of silk and velvet In
such a manner that 1t holds the coat
snug in the back. The fronts fly open,
showing the lovely vest underneath
There is a great fancy for these hand
some gird1es which are. passed through
the wide seams of the coat so as to
strap it tightly in the back with the coat
flying open in front, and a neat art
nouveau buckle finishing the belt. And
particularly are these belts seen with
the new coats.
