Sally, the colored woman, who
used to live at Bayhorse, was
drowned in Big Lost river, near
Mackay, one day last week.
A number from here are in at
tendance in the Pahsamaroi wat
er case at May. The case is be-
fore Attorney Hansbrough as
referee.
Attorney Adamson returned
last week from a visit to the
. Parker mine in the Parker Mt.
district, and reports the mines
looking better than ever.
J Next Saturday there will be
, held an election throughout Gus
| ter county, to submit to the vot-
, ers proposition to bond the
: county to build bridges, build
and improve the roads. 1t re-
quires a two-thirds vote to carry
so that every person who favors
this public improvement, should
make it a point to get out and
vote on June 26th. There is no
: registration required, and every
> person who was qualified to vote
: at last election is qualified to
vote next Saturday. The bonds
calls for SIP, 900 to go towards
s building wagon road from a
n point on Challis creek to Parker
e Mountain and on to Loon Creek.
n This is not half the estimated
t cost of the road, but Mr.. Rowe
n is assured of $1,000 from the Par
b ker Co., 81 900 from the people
le of this valley, and expects an
s. appropriation of $1,000 from the
m Forest Reserve, so if the bonds
carry, will make total of SIG,
600, the amount asked for by the
- Lost Packer company. The bal

Lost Packer company will put
up. This road appears to be tht

Not a word of his fathers conduct

the blow his father had struck. She
held him to no account for the base

herself unfit to be his wife.

famished, wornout company came to

half delirious once more for lack of
proper attention and the hardships Of

place his charges on board ship at
San Fernando de Union and then
await further orders in the little coast
town. 1t meant goodby to Jane, and
that meant more to him than he was
willing to admit despite all that she

pect that he could see and understand
at once. He would not know what had
gone before nor why she was there
His feeble glance took in her face
with lifeless interest. Perhaps 1t was
because he had seen her In that death
like dream. Perhaps his weakness kept
him from true realization. In any
event, he did no more than to allow the
flicker Of smile to come into his eyes
before he closed them again. Breath
lessly she waited for the lids to lift
once more. She uttered his name soft

distance he moved and again looked

hard at her. His eyes grew brighter
and then darkened with wonder. At

Joy and relief that she had been hum

beginning to understand.
II he heard her while she knelt and
thanked God for this frst great ray of
hope he gave forth no sign. When she
turned her eyes to his face again he
was asleep. But she went forth into
the day with song In her heart.
She looked about for Teresa. The
girl was gone, no one knew whittier.
Bray alone could say that she had
started toward the thicket. He point
ed out the direction. but did not offer
to accompany Jane when she hurried
away to carry the good news to the
Spanish girl who had been her stanch
helper during the long vigil. Bray
shook his puzzled head as he followed
her with his gaze. 1t had come to him
suddenly that the Spanish girl was not

the American girl came up to her; In
