CHINESE GIRL
FEARS SLAVERY

Ignorance sticks with death-like
grip and enlightenment comes slowly.
One born in this free country and en-.
lightened age ought to know that he
or she is free, but here is a case that is
an exceptions:
Edna, the China woman, has been
worried the last few days by strang-
er from San Francisco who told her
he was going to sell her. "He say |
look good to him." said she in telling
about it, "and he goin sell me for
$600.''
Now this young woman was born in
the United States, but her time has
nearly all been spent among people
OF her own race and she is in conse-
sequence densely ignorant of very
many things which everybody is sup
posed to know. She probably knows
how girls are bought and sold in China
like so many dolls, and how they are
sometimes sold in the large cities in
America 1T may be that she never
heard what happens to the men who
sell the girls, when they are caught.
Such knowledge as this may have been
kept from her, as certain knowledge
was Kept from slaves before the war.
Another idea handed down from
benighted race is that when a woman
marries a second husband she must not
see her children any more. Edna has
a little boy, and when she was married
again the boy was sent away to live
with relative. He came back on
visit once, but never went home. In
quiry was made as to why, and the
vague answer was given that "they
wouldn't allow il, - Just who would
not allow it, or why, could not be
learned, but it was evident that the
one who broke such rule feared some
terrible consequences.
She was assured that the stranger
could not sell her, and she took cour-
lge, but did not appear so sure about

LEASFRS GET
MORE GROUND
(From the National Miner.)


Upon his return to the district the
latter part of last week from a two
weeks visit to Salt Lake City,
Charles P. Crawford, manager of the
Crawford Leasing company, operating
upon the Mayfower claim, announced
that he and his associates had closed
a deal whereby they have secured what
is known as the Henry Kelker lease
adjoining the Crawford lease on the
same claim.
Mr.. Crawford also announced that
In consequence of the acquisition by
himself and associates of the KelkeI
lease, they increased the capitaliza
tion of their company from $4,000 to
$4,000, and that the future operation
of the two blocks of ground, the com
bined measurement of which is foul
hundred feet long by the width Of the
claim, would be prosecuted with all
possible vigor. In accordance with
that program, Manager Crawford is
advancing drifts upon the two promis-
ing looking ledges opened up some
time ago in the Kelker lease toward
the original block of ground, lying to
the northwest. 1t is Mr.. Crawford g
intention to drive these drifts all the
way through the old Kelker lease into
the Crawford lease and connect them
with the shaft recently started on
the latter and now being sent down
with all possible haste.

Three Thugs BEAT
man FOR MONEY


w. A. Fisher was In from Nationa,
few days ago with his head bandaa.
ed, an ugly cash across his nose and
both eyes blacked. He told the story
that he was attacked in the night
while asleep by three men, who took
what money he had in his pocket
about Sand tried to make him tell
where the rest was.
According to Fishers story they
pounded him with their fsts and gun
and he was just ON the point Of aivine
in and telling where he had soma
money hidden when the holdups ceas.
ed their attack. They thought hs had
money hidden, but when he held out
SO long against telling, they probably
concluded they were mistaken.
The matter was not reported 20 the
officers in Winnemucca, Mr., Fisher
saying the thugs were masked % they
could not be recognized, and there
was nothing for the officers to work
on.
The last issue of the National Miner
contained no information of the al.
legged assault, which would cast some
doubt on Fishers story; but his ap.
pearance certainly bore out his state
ments. s1
