MARCUS DIAL VS. PL UcK.
The story OF. Loan That brought
Success and Wealth.

4 The St0Fy OF q Loan That Thought
Succesa and wealth.
When the outlook was the blacklist
and this indomitnbie captain of men,
Marcus DAILY, had exhausted his re-.
sources and his credit fortunate ac-i
eident placed in his hands small but
sufficient sum Of money to transform
Inevitable defeat into certain victory.
Lloyd Tevis, the California lawyer, and
his mining partner, J. b. Haggin, who
had been visiting their properties at
HOmestake, stopped at Butte on their
way home to California to take a look
at the new camp. Marcus DAILY knew
Messrs. Haggin and Teyis well, for he
had worked for them in the old Califor;
mia days. He visited them at their
hotel, not the gorgeous palace of gran
lite, marble, precious onyx and mahog
any which adorns Butte today, but a
humber wooden structure more in
keeping with the squalid surroundings
OF the new camp. In Haggin's bed
room, the only place available for a
private conversation, DAILY made a
clean breast Of it to his friends and
appealed to them for aid, explaining
his theory fully and citing many adj
ditional facts which had developed dur.
ing his mining operations in Anaconda
that went to strengthen it.
It was thoroughly characteristic of
the man that he did not attempt to
haggle over the terms Of the loan, but
stated merely the facts and closed his
negotiations with the words: Now,
gentlemen, that is correct statement
OF the situation Of my affairs and the
condition of my mine. I must have
10000 and must have 1t at once to
meet next Saturdays payroll and cur
rent bills and to provide for the ex-.
penses Of operation for. another six
months or SO. If do not get it am
nat broke and will have to close up. l
have told you what l have got and
what I think and what l think | am
going to get when that shaft is down
another 100 feet or So Make your own
terms. but let me have the money"
They gave him the $4,000, and, Of
course, being astute business men, a
contract was drawn up and signed then
and there transferring to them the con-
trolling interest in the property. But
up to the date Of his death Lloyd Tevis
always declared that, though he believ-
ed thoroughly in Marcus DAILY s3integ-
rity, both he and Mr.. Haggin thought
that he was chasing chimera, that the
theory upon the elaboration of which
Marcus DAILY had spent so many sleep
less nights and all his substance was
fallacious and that no gold-copper de-
pOsit would ever be discovered in the
bowels Of Butte mountain. In fine,
Haggin and Tevis let DAILY have 10000
because they liked him. They certain
~ never dreamed that Anaconda
would prove a more veritable bonanza
than the Comstock lode AS for DAILY,
he had never doubted his ultimate sue
cess, and when three months after that
meeting III the hotel bedroom the main
shaft Of Anaconda penetrated, as he had
always believed 1t would, the richest
and most extensive gold-copper deposit
N the known world he conveyed the in
telligence to his partners In California

MYSTERIOUS PEOPLE.
rhe Awesome Importance and Sc.

The Atvesome Importance and SCI
cretiye AIR They Affect.
Many people assume certain man
ners as they assume certain clothes
and change these manners more sell
dom than they change their clothes
Some think it ingratiating to be perky.
Others think it more graceful to be
dropping and melancholy, to gaze visit
fully, walk mournfully and sit as if
before the baked meats of funeral
feast. But of all the people who in
dulge in travesty / think get most
amusement out of the mysterious peo-
pie.
Bated, forever bated, is the breath Of
the mysterious person. Directly he
comes into the room you are conscious
of the presence of the unutterable and
know that it will speedily be uttered
into your most private ear. When he
speaks to you he takes YOU aside" so
that none other may know that he Is
telling you that the weather is damp
and that there is a deal of influenza
about. AS he discusses with you such
dreadful subjects as the price of hob
nailed boots, the fluctuations of stocks
and the economies OF the administra-
ton his head approaches yours his lips
pout secretively, his eyes glance round
warily to make sure that no one is
within earshot to betray him and you.
The gallows is surely in his memory.
He wishes to avoid it; he wishes
kindly wretch-to save you from it al
so. Meet him halfway. 1t is such
fun to do that. He responds sensitive
~ to the slightest mysterious encour-
agement and thinks he is impressing
you and that you believe him to be
strange and remarkable parsonage and
that you will go away and say: Glad
met John Smith. Interesting man.
Not every day you come across man
like that
Many women are mysterious. In
deed, have met more mysterious
women than mysterious men. The
mysterious woman is often small, but
her hats are large, plumed like a
hearse and generally black as night.
Pale is her face and languid her man.
ner. She tries to look consumptiye
and succeeds surprisingly often. AS a
rule, she has little to say, but says it
in such an awful manner that it takes
on fictitious Importance and for the
moment appears to be impressive.
Think over your acquaintance and
friends. Are not some of them mys-
FERROUS, and are not they highly con-
sidered? Are not they called interest
ing on that account? There are many
spurious things in the social world,
but few things are more spurious than
that reputation for being interesting
which is gained by the mysterious
manner And half Of the world at

Every coat and every skirt should

should be padded and covered.

birds are seen on hats everywhere.
Quaint little owls heads ana brilliant
green parrots heads stuck on long hat
pins have come to join the happy
aviary.
Quite novel and effective are the ways
discovered of using tulle. I saw a we'll
known woman driving up Fifth avenue
the other day with her hat apparently
composed of two handfdIs of electric
blue and purple tulle, just crushed to
gether a little and attached to a brim
by a pin or two. Big back hats hav-
ing a sole trimming o. a number of
black tulIe bows, lightly wired and
massed in front, are being exploited by
one Of New York's most fashionable
milIiners. A hat with four huge choux
of pale blue, pale pink, yellow and
lavender tulIe completely surrounding
the crowns of hats, caught in here and
there with a rose or two, an idea i'm
ported from abroad last summer, Is be-
ms. recommended by some milliners for
evening and carriage wear this winter.
Touches Of fur are seen on many hats.
Sometimes it IS used lavishly, but more
often a band Of sable or the skin OF
one small ermine is considered sufficient
for a hat. Occasionally the tails OF
erInlne are applied on black or white
tulle. the little ermine heads catching
the trfmmin here and there. Chin
chilIa. is being used in combination with
blue. Copenhagen blue and the soft
gray of this fur make a delightful
blending Of color.
A new effect is gained by the use OF
cord and tasseIs on the hat Of black
broadtau pictured in the Illustration
marked e This is one of the win
ter's best models in fur hats and could
be successfully copied in almost any fur.
The Washington times., 1907-11-24

For fur hats, particularly. the turn
down Drim is much liked suppose one
o. the reasons being that tut fur lies
90 nicely on its slanting lines.
Hats rolling up of the face in front
or on one side and .brims bent sharply
back at the side front vii be mUcn
seen during the winter. Inc nat with
trim- decidedly broader on oEs side than
or the other grew naturally out Of .
necessity to have somewhere to rest the
enormous masses OF trimming being
piled uPon it. Hats with straight, fiat
crims, set upon the head without a
suspicion Of bandeau, have a certain
distinction.
One of the most characteristic hats I
have seen this year was d large fat hat,
the side brim rather wider than back
or front, the crown of medium height
The shape was transparet-ly covered
with black silk net, the edge bound with
a wide band of black satin Around the
crown was pulled black satin, which
ended in a chou at the left front. From
this sprang a beautiful black Bird OF
Paradise, which swept out and back.
This hat had a Striking simplicity of
effect. which told tremendously among
6lI the OVer1aden hats around IL.
Almost everything but felt seems to be
used in hat shapes. If by any chance
a shape of felt Is found it Is SO bound
and draped with satin or velvet that it
is hard to discover the original ma
t2liaL The wide bands OF satin, silk or
velvet binding the brims of hats are still
used. Often the accent OF the color used
for trimming is repeated in this way
Satin hats, which were a fad of late
summer IN Paris and were introduced
here early IN the season, are no longer
good style, although a crown Of satin
is sometimes seen on a hat where there
Is a binding Of satin around the br1rl.

The NeweSf Goats

The tight-itting coats are by far
the smartest, and the striped, rather
tnan plain materials, mere popular.
But be it remembered that Paris fash
ions are subject to sudden changes. and
that stripes have been in favor some
months.
Combining two colors in the stripe Is
considered smaTt-brOWn and green.
purple and black and gray. blue and
brown, blue and green, or two shades of
one color are all most attractive.
If a plain cloth Is chosen in preference
to the stripes, a collar and cuffs Of a
mucn lighter shade. edged with braid.
are considered effective. Sometimes
leather is used. but this is really not so
lew or so attractive as the lighter
shades Of cloth.
A velvet collar of lighter or darker
shade Is also a new fashion and then
the coat Is fastened with velvet buttons
of the same shacl
Long coats are far more fashionable
than the short ones. IN truth, for the
moment the short jacket has disap-
peared, to appear again, however, in
fur.
The three-quarter length or the long
and fanciful are all popular.
All coats are cut so as to more clearly
define the fgure, though the box coat
has by no means been given up Tut as
the fashions of the Elonnent are all ap-
parently designed to show the w5lst at
the back, and to nave it look as small
as possible, tie coat must be cut &c
cOrdingly.
