Valley, prospected for a time and 10.

Young White often wrote to his sis

of the lonely solitude of the mining
camp. These letters wrought on both
the sympathies and imagination of the
young woman, and she finally deter

all right, and, with little delay, made
her way finally into the dreary Funeral
mountains, performing the journey
across the sage brush and sandy
wastes on muleback and ON foot. On
reaching her brothers camp he was
surprised and overjoyed at seeing her.
Miss White donnedN the rough
clothes of a woman prospector, and
tramped for several weeks over the
rugged hills, and at last discovered a
rich cropping. She located several
claims, and then called on her brother
to help her work them. On one of
these claims a rich vein was discoy.

REAL WOMAN MINER
CALIFORNIA GIRL is WORKING
CLAIM IN NEVADA.
Miss Laura White of San Francisco
Gives UP Society for Life Of
Prospector-Has Been Emil
nently Successful.

Reno, Nev.-This state can boast Of
having a real woman miner, not a
mere prospector, but handsome
young woman, who actively engages
in working every day in bringing the
rich gold-bearing ore to the surface.
1t is not often that beautiful girl
will give up gay society in the city to
undertake the hardships of a mining
camp in the dreary sage brush desert,
and seek for the hidden lodges of
golden ore. There are girls who are
born with the belief that they are
destined to accomplish in life more
than to spend the time in mere social
pleasure and in becoming bellies of
fashion. Miss Laura Marguerite
White of San Francisco is one of
them.
This young woman-only % years
of age-was very recently lured by
the call of the DESERT and left the
gay whirl of social life for that of the
prospector and miner in the wide gold
fields of Nevada. And she has been
eminently successful.
Just about 10 months ago WilmOt
White, a brother of the daring girl,
and Richard Cole, his partner, went
down to Nevada to seek the precious
metal. Finally the young fellows
drifted into the Funeral range, on the
eastern border of the famous Death

Itor to Mexico is the noise Of the
church bells. Every little hamlet and
many of the ranches in the country
has one or more Catholic churches,
and each is equipped with one Or
more bell towers. The great cathedral
which stands near the national palace
in Mexico City has Is of these tow
ers.
In some towns the constant ringing
of the church bells is prohibited by the
local authorities. The sounding Of the
bells is permitted once 81 twice every
hour. Some churches toll the quarter
hours and others toll every five min
utes.
The profession of bell-ringing is
looked upon by the lower classes as
being highly honorable The bell
ringers are reverenced as being an
adjunct to the clergy. The bell-ring-
ers themselves are usually very proud
Of their vocation. In many cases this
position in a church is handed down
from father to son through generation
after generation.
The towers of the large cathedrals
are large and frequently are fitted
with rooms, occupied by the bell-ring-
srs and their families. Here, far above
the noise of the traffic of the streets
below, the faithful tollers of the bells
live peaceful life, seemingly unmind-
full of the crashing noise which con-
stantly resounds about their very
heads. They are away from the other
noises of the city, but are in the midst
of the bell clangings which go on all
through the days and nights.
How can you sleep, with all this
noise about your recently was asked
the wife of a bell-ringer in one of the
cathedral towers.
''It is not the noise of the bells that
mind" she replied. Il hear their
ringing without knowing it. 1t is the
changing of the street car gongs in the
street below that disturbs my slum-
bers."
All of the church bell ringing in
Mexico is done by hand. Some Of the
bells are of great size and great
weight, and to ring them requires the
exercise of powerful muscles.

and knew it when too late. Only
those hopelessly out of the running
seemed to be really enjoying them
selves.
1t was expected that the judges
would not remain out long, but half
hour went by, and they were still de-
batting in the little summer house to
which they had withdrawn. A feel
ing of uneasiness began to make itself
apparent. Bets were Cancelled, and re.
arranged again. No one seemed as
confident as at the opening of the
contest. At last the judges were seen
to rise, and then, two by two, they
came across the lawn, and took their
places on fiower-decked platform. A
sudden hush fell over the assembly.
The chairman waited until everyone
had come within hearing distance of
the stand before making his announce
ment, then, after reading the clause
in the WILL he said:
1.-THE difficulties in the way Of fair
decision can hardly be appreciated by
those not members of the committee

weighing, we crave your clemency.
Having made 1t we are sure Of your

There was 8 confused murmur.
Richard, more surprised than anyone,
turned to look at Mary. It was true!
1t might be gone tomorrow, but to-
day her radiant joy made her the most
beautiful woman there. She seemed
all light and color and happiness, and
they had felt it and recorded it.
She would not believe it at first, and
wanted to hurry away, but they de-
tanned her and showered congratula-
lions on her until she was glowing
like a rose. Each moment enriched
her, adding weight to the decision.

Old Sketch of Napoleon.

States Military Academy at West
Point. 1t was sketched from life on
board H. M. 8. Bellerophon, by Capt.
Marryat R. NJ, when Napoleon was a
prisoner on that vessel. 1t came into
the possession Of Sir Henry Irving,
the actor, and was presented by him
10 the West Point academy. The
sketch was made in 1915 On the voy-
age to st. Helena, after the defeat at
Waterloo, when the great soldier sur
rendered, was deposed and banished

emperor Is still wearing the star of
the Legion of Honor, all that is left to
him of his greatness.

Then she turned a rapturous face
toward him.
How they reached the appointed
place she never knew. She walked on
air, surrounded by ring Of gold that
inclosed one other person. Her eyes
shone. A bright color came to her
cheeks. Richard, excited and tri.
umphant, looked at her adoringly,
seeing in her at once the woman of
his future and the playmate of his
childhood. They would show them
selves at the contest for minute, just
to be philosophical Then they
would go for heavenly ramble in the
woods.
The judges had decided to make
the award after mingling informally
with their towns-people, so there was
no set ceremony, no drawing-up of the
contestants. People strolled about or
talked together il groups, as at a gar.
den party. Here and there a girl was
seen whose heightened color betrayed
her consciousness of being under
scrutiny, for it was generally known
that the courteous judges, chatting
casually with their friends and &C.
quaintances, were all the while CLEAN
ing impressions which would be of
service in making the decision. The
occasion, on the whole, did not seem
favorable to the setting forth of femi.
nine charm. Even Bertha, by becom.
ing self-conscious, had lost something
of her usual grace. Katherine's pretty
bow of mouth showed disposition
to straighten, and Dora's infantile nose
failed to save the day for her. AS for
the young women whose charm de-
pended on pink ribbons, they had all
apparently chosen the wrong colors.
