One day he had been removed to the
prison infirmary. Not that there was
much the matter with him, but the sur
geon was credited with desire to re-
ward Erichsen's humanity toward
fellow prisoner. who was said to have
died In his arms.
But another fellow prisoner he had
fought tooth and nail the night before,
and Mr.. Bassett had shrewd suspi-
zion that the real object of the removal
was to isolate a desperate man.
However that might be, he was do

said to be depressed. but not unable to
eat or sleep. Daintree reminded Claire
that the prisoner was having all his
meals sent in from n nelghboring chop
house and who 1t was that had ordered
them. 1t was himself.
Erickson was inundated with letters.
Most were from religious strangers,
who took his guilt for granted and In
dicated several only ways to that mer-
cy In another world which was neither
to be expected nor desired In this. But
the one that had given him the great
est annoyance was thought to have
come from a near relative, for 1t was
very long, and he had torn 1t In many
pieces and then retorted In three lines
and given 1t to the surgeon TO post
Claire knew who the relative was.
She had gone the length Of calling at
Avenue Lodge on her flight through
town to the continent, and her chief
lament was not that murder had been
committed, presumably by Tom, but
that her name had been disgraced, her
trust abused. her money spent In riot
and her life rendered uncomfortable In
her native land. The lady was Toms
stepmother.
There was another letter which he
seemed to expect every day and yet
they thought he must be In love.
Claire considered 1t unlikely. How
could n lover have done such q thing
And had he ever written to any girl?
Daintree said he would inquire.
No friends had been to see him, no
relations; but n noble lord, the same
who had incumbered the bench at the
MarylebOne Office, brought q party Of
friends and received payment in kind
for bis insolent questions. The prison

SALAD LIKED sv QUEEN.
Makes Desirable Adjunct for q Wonr
ans Luncheon.

The newest salad is named after
the Queen Of England, with whom It
is said to be prime favorite.
The Alexandra salad is secured in
only two or three Of the most ex-
elusive hotels in town, but may easily
be prepared at home, and is a most
desirable dish for woman's
luncheon. 1t is made of lettuce, eel.
cry. grapefruit and fresh cherries put
together after the following manner:
Take a very hard head of lettuce for
each person, remove all the outer
leaves, then cut out the center Of the
heart, making hollow as big around
as a 50-cent piece. Put into this hol.
low first a layer of celery, cut IN
pieces not over an inch in length and
shredded as fine as chrysanthemum
petals. On this lightly pile tiny Sec
tions Of grapefruit pulp until the hol-
low is filled. On the top place four
fresh ox-heart cherries, first remov.
ing the pits, and over the whole pour
light French salad dressing made
of oil, vinegar, salt and pepper prop
erly blended. Set each lettuce heart
in one Of the green outer leaves, lay
on a pretty plate and serve with
cream cheese and toasted wafers.-

and took lot of samples with him
The first twelve samples averaged
over SAT per ton in gold. The lowest
run was $500 and the highest over
$135, which is considered a splendid
showing for these properties.
Prospectors are active this season in
the Gore range. They are flocking
there from everywhere. The present
excitement is caused by the finding OF
rich piece Of free gold ore by John
Nelson of Middle park. The find was
made above the Henry Becker ranch
in the slate and sandstone formation
on the eastern side of the Gore. The
float found is said to be literally GOV.

the sample will run into the pictures.

He saw the rock" al the Pinney ranch
and claims 1t to be the richest piece
of surface stuff he has ever seen.
South of Three Forks and located
only short distance from the latter
camp is the Elkhorn mine. which has
already produced sufficient ore to give
1t good standing among the mining
men of both Colorado and Wyoming,
will soon be ready for further work.
The recent fire. which destroyed the
entire plant of machinery. has greatly

Of its workings. The 1,600-foot cross.
tunnel will cut 120 feet deeper than nj

PUBLIC OPINION.
Power Of the Country Press and It's
influences Upon the Community.

While the influences Of the great
city papers are recognized and the
great magazines fill necessary field,
neither Of these conveyers OF general
information can ever supplant the field
that is occupied by the country press.
The home paper is the medium that
conveys local intelligence to its read
ers. 1t fills a place in the journalistic
world that no other publication can
ever supplant. The country press is
one Of the greatest powers In the
molding Of public opinion. 1t may not
be up to the highest classical standard.
but its rough literary gems are contin-
ually shining resplendent and cast
their rays in the most remote corners
OF the land. 1t is power for good.
In its reflections Of events. In the local
field are shown the progress OF the
people whom 1t represents. It Is the
mirror Of the condition OF the town
and the country. The residents OF
every community should take the
greatest pride in assisting In making
the home press more powerful. Stand
up for your home paper It Is the one
staunch advocate Of your local inter-
ests and to an extent is Indicative OF
either your prosperity or your lack OF
progress.

NEWS FROM THE MINES and MILLS
Cripple creek Concentrate.

Cripple Creek District.-Tho vein
opened several days ago In the X. T.
tunnel of the Western Union Mining
Company's ground on Rhyolite hill is
reported as carrying pay ore all the
way across. When the vein was cut
1t showed a width of two and one-half
feet and carried a small seam of two
ounce ore. No pay values we're OBJ
tanned on either side Of this, but 1t is
said that after a round of shots today
the ore body gave value Of $50 be-
tween walls and that a slight improve
ment was noticeable In the rich streak.
The low grade ore will probably be
treated at the Wishbone mill. Consid-
erable money had been expended in
development work on the property be.
fore the strike was made.
Improved conditions are reported on
the ninth and tenth levels of the main
workings of the Isabella property on
Bull hill, the scene Of the recent rich
discovery. The ore broken from both
drift and stope is returning values of
from two to ten ounces in gold to the
ton. The new vein is widening out
as development work is carried on.
Travell & Co., operating the Christ.
mas mine on Bull hill, sent out a car
Of two-ounce ore to-day. The mineral
was broken from a seven-foot vein ly.
ing north of the shaft at depth OF
1000 feet.
Gregory and associates, working on
the 400-foot level of the same prop.
erty, are breaking ore of an ounce and
half value from a two-foot vein.
These sub-lessees are shipping on an
average of five cars Of ore each month.
The Pride of Cripple Creek Leasing
Company, which recently completed
sinking the shaft of the Pride of Grip
pie Creek property on Ironclad hill to
depth of 635 feet, is still driving
west at that depth to catch the exten-
sion of the Forest Queen vein. 1t is
thought that twenty-feet more drift.
ing will be necessary before the ore
body Is encountered.
The Wishbone mill, which has been
closed down for some time, was started
again this morning. Low grade ore
from several properties of the district
will be treated at this plant
A car of ore which Will probably net
800 to the ton was sent out from the
Granite property on Battle mountain
The mineral was broken from a five
foot vein lying between the 800 and
the 900-foot levels.

Lemon Sweet.

Lemon sweet is an English dessert,
simple and easily prepared. The in
gradients called for are three ounces
lump sugar, lemon and half and
five eggs. Wash the lemons thorough
ly, using a stff brush to make sure
all the black specks and other foreign
accretions are removed. Rub the
Jumps Of sugar over them to extract
the oil, then crush and put into stew
pan with the lemon juice sqeezed over
them. Beat the yolks of the eggs, add
to the lemons and sugar and stir over
the fire until the mixture just thick
ems. When cool whip the whites Of
the eggs to a stinf froth, stir in very
lightly, then turn from the pan into
glass dish. This dessert should be
made shortly before using as the
whites Of the eggs will fall If left too
long.
