There are many miles Of good wagon
roads in the Yukon territory, especially
In the region Immediately tributary to
Dawson, according to the New York
Herald. The construction Of these
ways Of communication Is due entirely
to the enterprise of the government
and assists materially in the opening
up of the country.
The building Of roads in this I'm
mediate region has reached a total Of
Just about 800 miles, not including
the White Horse trail, which is in
tended only for winter use and is not
q first class carriage road.
Stage lines are maintained on sew
eraI of these roads, but they are open
for the free use Of vehicles OF all
kinds and are in constant use.
They greatly facilitate not only the
regular travel between Dawson and
the creeks, and between principal
points on the different streams, but
they assist greatly the movement Of
heavy machinery and afford distinct
economy in the working Of properties.
The roads will not be less appre-
ciated now that a railroad is being
built through part of the Klondlke
region.
This road has now been construct
ed as far as Grand Forks and will
be extended if the promoters carry out
their plans.

CHAPTER XIII.

Madame Midas had experienced pow
erty and the GOODNESS of friends, so was
completely disillusionized as to the disin-
crested motives of the people who now
came focking around her. She was very
wealthy and determined to stop in Mel
bourne for year, and then go home to
Europe, so to this end she took house
at st. Kilda.
Vandeloup called on Madame Midas the
day after she arrived, and Mrs. Villiers
was delighted to see him. Having an OBJ
ject in view, Of course CASTOR made him
self as charming as possible, and assisted
Madame to arrange her house, told her
about the people who called on her, and
made cynical remarks about them, all Of
which amused Madame Midas nightly.
She grew weary of the inane gable and
narrow understandings Of people, and it
was quite relief for her to turn to Van
deloup, with keen tongue and clever
brains.
yandeloup had prospered in his little
venture In the mining market, for the
Maggie Reef shares ran up rapidly. A
telegram was published from the manager
stating rich reef had been struck. Speci-
mems of the very richest kind were dis
played in Melbourne, and the con6ding
public suddenly woke to the fact that a
golden tide was flowing past their doors.
They rushed the share market, and in two
weeks the Maggie Reef shares ran from
four shillings to as many pounds. Vande-
loup intended to sell at one pound. but
when he saw the rapid rise and heard
every one talking about this reef, he held
his shares till they touched four pounds,
then, quite satisfied with his profit, he
sold out at once and pocketed nearly ten
thousand pounds, so that he was provided
for the rest of his life.
Kitty meanwhile had become a great
favorite with the Wopples family, and
they made wonderful pet of her. OF
course, being in Rome, she did as the Ro-
mans did, and vent on the stage as Miss
Kathleen Wopples, being endowed with
the family name for dramatic reasons.
The family were now on tour among the
small towns of Victoria, and seemed to
be we'll known, as each member got re-
ception when he or she appeared on the
stage.

loup lounged out of the Office.
He walked along Collins street, met a
few friends. and kept lookout for Kitty.
He, however, did not see her, but there
was a surprise In store for him, for turn
ing round into Swanston street he came
across Archie Mcintosh. Yes. there he
was, with his grim, severe Scotch face,
with the white frill round it, and CASTOR
smiled as he saw the old man, dressed
rigid broadcloth.
"Ah, laddie," said Mcintosh, irritably.
Have We seen anything O. the girl that
rim away"
"Oh, Miss Marchurst - said Vande-
loup, smoothly, ready with a lie at once.
mo, I'm sorry to say I've never set eyes
on her."
1.-The mistress is just crazy about her."
observed Mcintosh, querulously; "and
she's looking all through the town to find
the poor wee thing"
Il hope she WILL" said Vandeloup, who
devoutly hoped she wouldn't.
Vandeloup took Mcintosh to the club
and introduced him all round as the man
ager of the famous Pactolus. All the
young men were wonderfully taken up
with Archie and his plain speaking. FL
nally he left Vandeloup to go down to
Madame Midas at st. Kilda, and bearing
a message from the Frenchman that he
would call there the next day.
Archie having departed, Vandeloup got
through the rest of the day as best he
could. He met Mr.. Wopples in the street,
who told him how he had found Kitty,
quite unaware that the young man before
him was the husband who had deserted
her. Vandeloup was delighted to think
that Kitty had not mentioned his name,
and quite approved of Mr.. Wopples' in
tention to take the girl on tour. Having
thus arranged for Kitty's future, CASTOR
went along to his broker, and found the
astute Polglaze had got him his shares.
"Going up" said Polglaze, as he hand
ed the scrip to Vandeloup and got check
in exchange.
'Oh, indeed" ~ said Vandeloup, with
smile. al suppose my two friends have

thought, as he slipped the scrip into his

from several firms in the State, was

with the Economical Steam Laundry in

though a young man, he worked ear
nestly, diligently and u"ntiringly until
he built up the trade of this institu-
ton to be a paying investment. He
was well and favorably known among
all classes. Only recently Mr.. Price
decided to accept this position. After
he had gone to Memphis and investi-
gated the prospects he decided at once
that he would better himself by going
to a city where there seemed to be a
greater possibility for the Negro in
that line of work. Then, too, the pro.
prietors of the Peoples Steam Laun,
dry at Memphis had invested a large
amount in up-to-date machinery and
were in a position to compete with any
institution of the kind in that city
