gallows frame and all in position.
The camp of Wonder is looking
well from any standpoint you may
wish to take it. The properties are
showing up we'll, and in the short
history of the camp, there have been
more mines proven than in any other
camp of its age. There is the Vul-
ture, already shipping ore; there is
the Spider-Wasp, with six leases on
it. all sacking ore. This mine is
simply a marvel, and now that the
company is going to work on its
own behalf. there is no tell
it is going to stop.
THE Nevada Wonder is another
big mine. They have not begun
shipping yet, but the way that they
are blocking out and loading up the
dumps with milling ore is a caution.
So we might go all along the line
and lame property after property,
but these that | have mentioned will
suffice to show what they have in
Wonder. The camp too, is fine from
a business standpoint. Everybody is
busy, and there is no need for any
body to remain idle"

GOOD REPORT
FROM SILVER BOW

Arthur D%onoghue, a mining man
of Silver Bow, came in from that
camp yesterday and brought good
news from the district. Everything,
according to Mr.. Donoghue, is hum
ming with life and activity, and as
far as he is personally concerned, he
has no fault to find with his own
good fortune. He is the owner of
the Leroy claims, Nos. l and 3,
which adjoin the Blazer ground, and
has been doing the development
work upon them. Without going
very far from the surface he ran
into ore which will average $50 a
ton in gold, besides carrying silver
values the extent of which have not
yet been ascertained,

together with Superintendent Hum
phrey of the Thanksgiving assure
him their absolute confidence in the
contact lead passing straight across
the Breyfogle ground. He had some
samples of Breyfogle ore that he
took tothe assayers at once.
Manhattan is fast proving that she
is not a dead one, but on the
contrary is very much alive.

that he nearly broke one Of his fingers.
Now, then. through the hedge. over the

the Frenchman tied the young mans legs
deftly together and then bound his arms.
1t was all done so quickly, so neatly
with so little fuss or noise. that IN few
seconds ST. Quintin. helpless as an in
FAINT, had been carried through a gap in
the hedge, over the corner Of the field
through the opening in the wall, and then
al a run the two scOundrels made toward
the deserted mansion.
ST. Quntin's blood ran cold He felt
now rs if he had had an instinct that aft

He heard the rusty key turning with a
Shrek in the lock of the front door. and
then he was carried in, motonless as a
dead man. and through the musty and
stagnant air Of the great hail. where the
footsteps of the two rascals echoed as
they walke,' into lofty room, the walls
Of which were reeking with damp. and
upon the floor Of which green moss and
gray lichen were growing in little tufts
between the boards.
There they let him fall with no more
concern than If he had been a bundle of

he, in as uncOncerned and cool tone as

Monsieur Leblanc with so much sayagery
that St. QUintin's heart stood still
A horrible light, greenish and pale and
cod, moonlight seen through a film OF
ragged greenery. came through the win
dow and showed the unhappy man the
face of the Frenchman, looking lurid and
horrible like a devils.
Then he saw with fascinated eyes
something dark and large and heavy
raised deliberately in the slender fingers,
and the next moment he saw millions of
flashing lights and felt that the earth
had opened with a crash to let him fall
through through space into something

CHAPTER XXI.

When st. Quintin had thought 1t better
to keep out of his friend Inces way, In
order to avoid inconyenient questions, he
had reckoned without his host.
James Ince was by no means so limo
cent as not to guess that this avoidance
on the part of his most intimate friend
meant mischief Of some sort, and he was
sure that 1t was connected with the IN
desirable people at Briar Lodge.
So he called 81 his friends cham
bers on the very morning Of the de-
parture for Densley Void. and heard
from the valet that st. Quintin had gone
away for a few days. and had left no
address for letters to be sent on. so that
all the information TO be got was that
he went by way of Liverpool Street
Station.
Now this was quite enough to put
the astute Ince on the track OF the run
away. That he had purposely refrained
from leaving his address behind him in
order to defeat his friends unwonted
vigilance, Ince felt sure. That he had
gone on some errand of more than COM
mon danger he was equally certain.
The next thing TO be done was plainly
to make Investigations at Briar Lodge,
where there was one person, at least,
upon whom he could rely for trustworthy
information. provided he had not been
got at" since his last interview with
the young barrister.
So to BriaT Lodge James Ince went
without delay, arriving there a little be-
fore luncheon time. He was relieved TO
see that the house looked much as usual.

When the p. NJ. s. S Mongolia last

took away the last consignment of

fore the new immigration act was en-
] forced.
She took go, whereas it WIS at the
time thought she took only $50.
On the afternoon of the day Of her
departure from this port, when there
were hundreds of Japanese booking, a
large proportion Of them having but
recently arrived here from their home
country, a cable was received by the
authorities here from Washington to
the effect that no more Japanese would
be allowed to enter the continental
United States from Hawaii on pass
ports from Japan to Hawaii. A great
crowd had already bought tickets and
there was considerable questioning at
the time that the Mongolia left whether
the Japanese in the Mongolia's steer
age from Hawaii would be permitted
to land at San Francisco. In fact, so
much confusion was there in the get
ting away of the crowd of Japanese, it
not being known whether all those who
had bought tickets were going that
the general impression was that but
$50 were taken from here.
Upon the arrival of the Mongolia at
San Francisco it was learned the Japs
had been admitted. Now it develops
that the actual number that went from
! here in the Mongolia was go.
