the young lady were not people Of
wealth and It would be ahard matter
TO secure a large bond.
Mr.. Mckee. who appeared for Mrs.
Burton, stated to the court that he de-

appeared in some OF the newspapers
of the city to the effect that. an
amount ofsbaii had been agreed upon
between the prosecuting attorney and
himself. that nothing of the kind had
been done. and that the statement In
the newspapers had not come from
himself or his partner, Mr.. Garvin.
Before placing the amount Of bail
the judge also took occasion to say al
few words regarding the propensity Of
certain Of the newspapers of the city
to try cases out OF court, and while
he did not believe the attorneys I'M

present, and other women of the town,
while the fathers and meh friends Of the

Both we're arranged by President nj. B.

School Beard.
The mothers were addressed by Miss
Nena Edmond, of Bozman; Mrs. Frank

Dean, teacher Of the Sc. Michael's School
who both shocked and gFieved the ladies
by the revelations they made. Obscene
notes, the nature OF which the mothers

the outcroppings Of vice discovered

MOTHER

Alas how little do We apprec ate onr
mothers tender love while she is with
us though tatiful and devoted to her.
After her lips are closed forever, and We
know she will never more lead us TO her
counsel, cheer us along the pathway
when thorns pierce us, shadows gather
over JUS, then we turn memory's pages
and feel that If we only had mother back
how many rays of sunshine we could
bringfnto her heart. 50 many kindnesses
we might have shown her il we had only
known she was going away so soon to be
no more. How often these thoughts will
pass through your mind after your sweet
old mother leaves you II she has not even
now passed over ttie Dark River.
Yet oft as / look ba ard or the long,
long waste Of fyears,
NY heart is Allied with sudden pain, my
eyes grow dim with tears,
As I recall with vain regret and many

While these thoughts come our moth
er's tender love comforts. We feel that
while we have grieved her many times
her love wrapped The mantle Of charity
abontNus. This is comfort. To those who
are blessed with mother let US beg that
you tseat her With, the tenderest care.
For MO matter how you treat her when
she leaves, you will feel many regrets.
If Eou ask cliila where home is he
would say where naothes is. Home Of
our childhood, where mother reigns

MYSTERIES or DEATH VALLEY
Fascinations for Those Who Brave It's
Dangers Of Finds

%SSthkt% tANkAAkF Tvs hNDS w MB Ak6 6NG kkS
Dangers Legends of Finds
While gold seems to be the underlying
cause Of the great interest taken in Death
Valley, yet mysterious fascination takes
possession Of all who once brave it's dan
gers. Numberless legends have been
handed down from generation to genera
tien Of strange happenings almost be-
yond human explanation, yet at the bot
| tom of all runs the streak of gold, for
| which men daily sell their lives and often-
times their very souls.
Old Indian trails and signs still point
the way from spring to spring telling
whether the water is good or bad, the dis
tance from one to the other, the passable
and the impossible canon, the location
of old Indian villages, &c. In order to
read the signs correctly, one must be
familiar with their ways and customs aud
even then it has become difficult on ac-
count Of changes that are constantly
taking place through natural and human
agencies.
The trails are Of different periods. some
being later than others. At intervals
i beside the trails are monuments Of stone,
with a pointed rock showing the direction
to take. Two rocks pointing in opposite
directions indicate that ii is impassabIe.
The location of metat stones are also Gig
nificant a metat stone is fiat stone,
followed in the centre, used for grinding
acorns for -four and will be found not
more than half days travel from water.
Many springs known to the Indians are
not down on the maps.
Endeavoring to find pass through the
mountains on recent trip, party fol-
lowed the Indian trail and signs and we're
led course which passed three springs
and some old breastworks which Indians
had used to hide behind when lying in
wait ior mountain sheep. One of the first
gold excitements was back in the fifties,
when Brey fogle found fine tree gold, but
was unable to return to the exact spot.
He was afterward bit with stone hurled
by an Indian which is supposed to have
injured his brain.
Beatty has expressed the opinion that
the Breyfogle find was between Willow
Springs and the Original Bullfrog.
Charlie Nyman thinks it is between
Keane Sprinps, Willow Springs and
Death Valley, while one of Breyfogle's
party described Hole-in-Reek. The wind
breaks supposed to have been used by
Breyfogle are located about Is miles
southo Rhyolite. Another legend is of
an Indian who went into Cerro Gordo
with rock full OF free gold, which he
sold for S8. The white men tried to get
him to tell where he found it, but the In
dian was wise and kept its location to
himself. He was accidentally killed
short time after while hunting sheep, and
the secret died with him. Some think
this find Was the same as Breyfogle's.
The valley itself is about all that it has
been painted. At times man or beast
would mire out of sight and at other times
the shifting sands would almost bury him
alive. Yet men live there year after year
without feeling that they are incurrying
any unusual amount OF danger. They
know where they may and may not go,
and how to prepare for emergencies.

THE RED Cross IN CHINA
FRO Be Continued


American consul general at Shang-
China. Mr.. Rodgers. has sent the
pwing statement as TO the famine con-
bns in that country TO the Red Cross
lquarters In Washington:
Fhe conditions are almost unseeable,
It unspeakable. ! only saw a portion
lie camps at Chinkiang and at Nam
and was told that they are infinitely
er than those which line the canal
% and at Tsingkiangpn. Yetthe wretch.
edness. the misery, the almost appalling
horror OF the camps saw are practically
indescribable. II must be bornein mind
that no rain Of any consequence has fallen
in this part Of China for many weeks; as
g consequence the camps are located and
| adjacent to reasonably dirty and filthy
canals and pools. but beside foul bitches
and stagnant ponds; there is no attempt at
sanitation and the mat huts are crowded
together, and each contains many men,
women and children, who are clothed in
rags, who are disheveled beyond descrip-
tion and who are living on scanty tea
cup Of rice day and besides such roots
and other vegetable substances as can be
CLEANED from country already swept
nearly bare. This is the condition Of
these people near the prosperous cities
Of Marking and Chinkiang, and they only
constitute asmaIl percentage the whole,
the refugees in the river cities and towns
probably numbering altogether $4,000.
What it is all like at places within the
famine district can perhaps be imagined.
If such disaster as All epidemic of small
pox or typhus fever should occur this re-
fugee population will certainly spread
somewhat, although some assert that they
will prefer to take their fate and misery
in company with their fellows.
'iBe all that as it may tile climax of
this famine condition in the essential
quantity-that OF starvation or not
will not come for six or seven weeks, the
time when the real Chinese winter of the
latitude is on. That there will be great
loss Of life goes without saying; the only
question now is how much can it be-
limited.
'sThere is no question about the feeling
OF gratitude entertained BY the Viceroy
for the charity of the American people
toward these afflicted members Of his race.
Re reiterated his expressions in that re-
spect time aud again and gave every ex-
preston Of his appreciation.
The American Red Cross has thus far
shipped to China 3OU tons Of flour, valued
at $4,000 and has cabled $4,000 in
money; $500 bushels OF seed wheat for
spring planting will be shipped to China
on the 2lst Of February and 1000 bushels,
contributed in Portland, will he forwarded
as soon as arrangements for.its transpor-
tation can be completed.
The necessity for help is urgent, and
even the smallest contribution may save
human life. The treasurer OF the Della
ware Red Cross Association, Mr.. Henry
NJ. Candy, l0l1 Market street. Whining
ton, Delaware, will gladly receive and
transmit to the Washington headquarters
any contribution sent to him. It's hoped
that Delaware viii gele.oaSlv lv and at once
respond to this appeal lfoui starving

went down stairs.
Mrs. Cherrival was already
astir. The family kept no maid

was her own housewife. She
pottered about and laid the break
