The Devils Dice Box" was suggest
ed TO the author by the celebrated
smoke case OF the Deer Lodge farmers
against the Washoe company operating
gigantic Smelters. The story is found
ed on fact, Yet there is a great deal of
weird imagination worked into the
plot, including a description of a trip
10 the internal regions, sojourn in
Hades. and a compact with his satanic
m ajesty himself. Many of the char
acters are taken from real life. and are
largely descriptive OF Montana people

having been born at Gladbrook. She is
the eldest child of Mr.. and Mrs. Baker,
and originally took up literary work as
a pastime. Her newer work, however,
promises to prove profitable and it is
more than likely that Miss Baker will,
in time, give up school duties and de-
vote her entire time TO her literary
pursuits.
Miss Baker is expected to reach this
city within few days for a visit OF
ten days or Two weeks with her pa
rents. She is On her way south, on

the old man." said the officer. "They
all insist there is a vast sum of money
buried here, in one of these abandoned
dens, and they are bound to have 1t.
From this building the officer led the
way around the corner to the gloomy
passage known as "Nigger alley" sud
denly, at the door of another empty
building, he stopped abruptly, ana the
two men listened.
The sound of digging again was
heard. This time, opening the door
suddenly, the reporter came race to
face with two men excavating far
down below the floor. shaft about
twelve feet deep had been dug, and
leading from this, in direction of the
"cribs," and directly under a two-story
deserted building, where Ballerino once
had his office. the men had dug a
tunnel. The floor was torn up in many
places, and the walls were almost
wrecked, yet the building was com
paratively new.
Farther away, in another alley, we
found an aged Mexican digging be-
meath a fence and tearing into the
earth with his hands in search of the
Ballerino treasure box.
At this point a negro woman, very
fat and black, emerged from a nttle
room off the court. She called out TO
the officer. Her voice re-echoed start
lingly through the empty pullulhSs'
across from the old court.
"Whats the matter, nanny" asked
the officer.
IT want you to fin my husband,
Migtah Offcah. He amt been home
for two nights now. Is AFRAID some
thin happened to him. He's helpln
some o. them fool men look for that
Ballerino treasure box"
The officer laughed and walked on.
Married to Chinese
who is her husband?" the reporter
asked him.
"a Chinaman." he replied. "They
got married twelve years ago. You
would be surprised to see how happy
they are. Funny combination, isn't
it?"
Farther on, the officer led the way
to an abandoned lodging house-aban-
doned except that in 1t there were sew
eral Mexicans and men of other ma
tionalities lying about in the dusty
halls and rooms in drunken stupor.
Here is where we used to sit and
keep our eyes on the opium den en-
frances" said the officer. This was
our lookout We have rounded up
many hop heads here. You will see
the treasure hunters have been digging
even in these places. See how the
boards are torn up"
The officer then led the way into a
farther alley, near Marchessault street.
He stopped about half way from the
Ballerino rookeries and pointed to sew
eral low, squalid looking buildings at
the farther end. There was not sim
gle light to be seen in any direction.
Every footstep echoed and reechoed
through the deserted structures.
do you see that little court yonder
to the right of those low buildings?"
asked the officer.
Yes"
There Is an insistent rumor in
Chinatown that three bodies are buried
there An old Mexican named Lopez
and several others insist that one of
the Ratchet men one night killed
three tong men and buried their bodies
there so the police would not discover
them. OF course. we are investigating,
but don't think there is anything in
the rumor." !
