" Goldfeld, New, Oct. 22.-The Tayes-

of ore Saturday by q band of robbers
whose operations were of the most
daring character. Just before day.
break four men drove up to the Hayes
Monette shaft house and jumped from
the wagon. Entering the shaft house,
they ordered the two engineers to
throw UP their hands. They were,
heavily armed and under their drawn
weapons ordered the engineers to car
ry twenty-eight sacks of high grade
ore from the shaft house to the
wagon. After making the engineers
load the wagon the robbers drove of.
The alarm was given but the robbers
have not yet been apprehended. .s

And in the morning the eye was too

must make the long journey, forty
miles by stage, two railroad changes,
one involving an all-night stop at a

me tiny point of hair had been cut

was impossible to save that eye and
it must be removed in hope of saving
the other. He removed it and I re-
turned home only to have to repeat
the long journey inside a month be-
cause the other eye was growing
worse. He had doctored it and am

The hills no longer smothered her.
Their strength had come to her in the
hour Of need. The breadth of the
horizon had uplifted her spirit until
she might now be disabled, she could
no longer be crushed. Such is the
mettle of the women who have built
up civilization on the Slope.
When tempted to pity our pioneer
women think of one who for. long

mentS, the choosing OF paths. But the
women from civilization, what pre-
paration had they for this hand to
hand conflict with an undeveloped
country? When they found them
selves cut off from the supplies of
civilization how did they meet the
emergency? Some fell by the way
side. Some fed hack to the life of
ease. Jamestown tells the final chap
ter in the lives of others. But the
majority persevered in their heroic
efforts to keep their families comfort
able and cheerful.
A typical case comes to mind. A
belated train drew me into conversa-
ton with a stranger Her bandaged
head excited. my curiosity and she told
her story. For eighteen years of mar
ried life her home had been in a fiat
in city of several hundred thousand
inhabitants. You know what that life
means. Heat and light coming on at
touch. Anything one wishes to
order delivered at the door. Just
minutes walk to the car line that
carries one to all the pleasures of
twentieth century civilization. Her
husband during all those years had
worked in the printing office of large
daily. He suddenly determined they
must own some land. A homestead
was taken on the. Missouri Slope, a
tent was erected and they were left
to their own resources. To tell the
story in her own words: ..For days I
sat in the tent and cried and the dog
sat by me and hoWled. My husband
would leave his work outside and
come, and look at the two of us and
flee again to the outer desoIation.s
would so outside to be with him and
at sight of those monotonous hills and
| the horizon unbroken by sign Of
human habitation, the loneliness
would come up and smother me. AT
last our rude home was finished and
we prospered, We had q little store
and the postofice and I was too busy
TO be lonely had SO many things ID
do Z had never even heard Of a
wonan's doing. For instance. we

inhabitants. This and the forts above

Union and others--ca for much

traffic was all carried on in canoes,
pirogues and other frail crafts. In
1880 two steamers, the Yellowstone
and Assiniboine assembled the upper
Missouri. They were the pioneers of
the five. transportation companies
which later kept as many as SO or so
large boats plying up and down the
river. AS many as nine have been
loading and unloading at Bismarck OF
one time. The development of the
country came naturally in supplying
the needs Of these boats, posts and
villages. For instance the first indus
try at sibley island was cutting wood
to- sell to passing steamers. The early
settlers were guides, hunters, trap
pers, steamboat hands, soldiers, trad
ers. No attempt at agriculture was
made until 1878 or 1879.

Yellowstone The Indians had well
coined the coming of the railroad to
the Missouri river but were de-
termined it should not advance
farther. The surveying party which
started from Bismarck early in the
season of 1873 was fired on almost
under the guns of Old Ft. Lincoln.
From TT. Rice they had the protec-
ton ofNCuster's cavalry. When they
returned in the fall, Clusters command
was quartered at Old Fl. Lincoln.
This fort, containing originally both
cavalry and infantry, was built on top
Of a high precipitous hill, perfect for
means of defense. Later the cavalry
quarters were moved mile to a
lower plateau, giving better shelter
for winter quartedss and a field for
eVolutions. 1T was at this fort that

AS I looked at her present comforts
and saw all her happiness centered in
past achievement, Z learned once more
the old, old lesson that it is not what
we possess but what we do that makes
or mars our happiness. 1t is the day
IN which we measure ourselves with
| emergencies and come off victor that
is the happy day. And so our pioneer
women heroic as their lives have been
are not to be pitied. Theirs is the
JOY of achievement. The tragedy of
the west is rather written in the lives
of some of the children of the pioneers
to whom school did not come in time.
Here and there solitary family has
lived it's isolated existence until the
children almost reached maturity.
When the wave of prosperity brought
advantages to their door, the chance
sometimes has come too late, The
undeveloped intellect could not
respond to the belated opportunity and
in their stunted lives is written the
real tragedy of the west.
One of the most interesting periods
in the local history of the Slope is the
boom days of Bismarck. The Northern
Pacific officials desiring to sell bonds
in Germany, changed the name Edwin
ton given in honor of the engineer in
charge of the extension, to Bismarck
a courtesy which the German chancel-
lor acknowledged in an autograph
letter. Maps of the country were sent
abroad and in time began to arrive
lords and barons, counts and common
ers bent ON investments to yield big
returns. Then began gigantic boom.
Land scared to fabulous prices and
the town was laid out on lines to rival
Chicago. Those were the days OF the
silk hat and eoachman and pair in
Bismarck when gentlemen rode from
the beautiful homes that crowned the
hills about the city to their places or
business figuring what would be their
profits when they sold out their lands
In lots at $4,000 a piece Happy
days, too soon passed. Followed By
long years in which the homes were
gradually moved to within walking
distance of the Office and the men
spent their time figuring how to pay
the taxes on their property at its in
fated valuation. The history of those
years cannot vet be written, It goes
too deeply Into the life struggle OF its
participants. II was poor Bismarckss
