ARE HEADED
 F0R TIE HILLS

Smith Remick and Herman Rich ter with large packs on their backs, took this mornings train for out Of town points. They did not shout their proposed destination from the house tops, but it is understood by some of their friends that they are headed for the East Fork of the Skagway River.
 It is beginning to look like old times to see loaded packs headed for the hills. That there are numbers of Iedges carrying good pay has been established firmly in the minds of Skagway's population and now that the test mill is to be built the work of prospecting will move on at an accelerated pace.
 Several other parties are getting things in shape to go out in several different directions. Before long there will be a call for the building of pony trails to the claims not ac- cessibIe by boat or railroad.

PRETTY GIRLS
 IN THE HILLS

A party of young women camped in the vicinity of the old town site of Liarsvine yesterday. They said that they were out prospecting.
 One of them was in possession of a rod and line but whether she was angling for supplies for the camp or had deeper designs can only be con iecured.
 The Iarder did not look overly sup pHed-two little potatoes were raked from the camp fire while the Alas kan representative was present but there wasn't much else visible that would satisfy the grumbungs of a hungry maU-perhaps they didn't care and were not looking for a hungry man.

is usual in such cases, brought only
the face of the plate When a GER
tain number of pieces were worked
off on this, the engraver was expected
to bring the plate for printing the
back and take away the face plate.
Counterfeiters are always more or
less suspicious of one another and
have good reason to be. Nearly all
OF them are treaeherous and liable to
sell out to the detectives at any time
/ was anxious to secure the counter

to arrest the engraver until could
catch him with the plates complete.
| told Delinsky to accidentally mar
the face plate. He did this. When
the engraver came TO inspect the
prints he saw the defect and 1t was
agreed between him and the printer
that he would go to his home and
bring the back plate which Delinsky
could be printing from while he him
self was touching up the defect on
the face.
The news of this move was at once
brought to me and three trusty Off
GERS were dispatched to watch the
house where the printing was being
done Delinsky had furnished a plan
of the house, the hall and the stair
way leading to the room. Everything
necessary was known to the detect
ives. At what was thought to be the
opportune moment the raid was made.
One of the detectives gained access
through a basement window. He
pulled off his boots, slipped softly up
the stairs and unbarred the street
door. The other officers, shod with
gum shoes, now made their way care
fully to the room occupied by the
counterfeiters. The screws Of the
lock had been loosened by Delinsky
The Pioche record. [volume] (Pioche, Nev.) 1908-1925, 1911-02-25

and the door was easily crowded open.
The printer was working away busily
and the engraver was seated at
table with the counterfeit face plate
before him. The graver with which
he was tracing the lines was in his
hand
When the detectives suddenly
pouncod into the room the Russian
engraver came very near falling off
his chair in his establishment, but he
was an old hand at the business and
soon became cool and collected. He
could speak English fluently and the
work that he was engaged in was
proof of his ability as fine engraver.
He had left his own country several
years before and had come to the
United States to engage in his pro-
fesslon. He had not been entirely
free from suspicion in his native
home Suspicious circumstances are
dangerous over there and he was
compelled to flee to country where
he vas unknown and where the laws
are less severely administered. The
Staunton head plate engraved by him
tested the judgment of skilled experts
beyond any similar issue that had
been put out by the counterfeiters.
The plate was masterpiece.
Old Peter Delinsky was we'll known
among the counterfeiters as plate
printer. When first approached by
the Russian engraver he declined the
offer made and said he had once been
in difficulty in similar job and did
not care to risk his liberty the sec
ond time. This made the engraver
more anxious to secure his services.
AS general thing it is difficult for
| persons who have served terms In the
! penitentiary to secure employment In
| legitimate lines, hence they more
readily engage in crooked work. Coun.
| terfeiters are ingenious In laying
plans to prevent discovery. Every
conceivable artif1ce is resorted to by
detectives to capture them and get
possession of the counterfeit plates.
The engraver in this case was a clev.
er man at his business For this rea.

So She VIII Be Hungry Enough to
Make Out Good Menus for

The methodical family needed a
housekeeper. One of the first ques-
tions put to her was; Are you will
ing to do without luncheon on Mon

The elimination of her MONDAY
meal being form of abstinence that
she had never practiced. the house
keeper replied that she would have
to think about it. why can't I eat
then?" she added.

the employer ct is a rule In this
house to write the family bill OF fare
on Monday for the coming week. To
study out really appetizing meals
for seven days ahead a person must
be ravenously hungry. The ordinary
interval between meals is not long
enough to develop a Gargantuan ap-
petite, so on Monday we prefer our
housekeeper to skip a meal. The

seemingly on the verge OF an unlaw-
full transaction to entral him.
When he was bror gh; to my office
he was wise enough t. realize that
the chances for his escf pc were very
small When questioned he confessed
everything and promised to plead
guilty.
When his case came up in the
United States court x-,'udge Stuart
was his counsel. He wa a criminal
lawyer of considerable ability, about
seventy-five years of age. He had
been practising law in New York city
for many years and was the trusted
friend and adviser of many of the
mC@ notorious criminals of that day
Tall, raw-boned, solemn faced and
deeply sentimental, he could shed croc-
odile tears copiously whilO making
plea for his client. ! have often been
filled with wonderment at the effect
produced upon the minds of jurors
by this great actor. His tragic voice,
his long gray locks and fearful eyes,
had an astonishing effect and fire
quently brought tears even to the
eyes of the Judge and tile stony
hearted lawyers engaged in the prose
cu1on, who were sometimes seen to
turn their heads during the dramatic
scenes enacted by the old hypocrite
while engaged in defending his client.
The evidence introduced in the
Russian engraver's case was SO strong
and overwhelming that anything like
successful defense upon legal
grounds appeared quite impossible
Stuart had been at my office and made
an effort to secure the Russ ans re-
lease on his promise to assist in cap
turing other counterfeiters. But
turned the proposition down and his
counsel had said that his client would
plead guilty and throw himself upon
the mercy of the court. When the
case was brought to trial Judge
Stuart informed me that his client
had changed his mind and he con-
cluded to stand trial. He Id the
Russian had disregarded his advice
and he did not think there WAS any
chance of saving him.
When the case was called and the
jury was organized, l saw they were
a choice selection of philanthropists.
The testimony produced on the trial
was more than sufficient to convict;
there did not seem to be evon a
shadow of a chance for the prisoners

acquittal. There was no dispute
about the guilt of the prisoner. His
attorney did not introduce any wit
nesses and the government attorney
seemed to think he had everything
his own way.
When Judge Stuart's turn came to
speak, he arose. His face wore an ex-
preston of great solemnity as he
mildly said he had been retained to
say few words in behalf of the un-
fortunate man on trial.
THE prisoner is a stranger in a
strange land. He canot understand
nor speak word of English. He is

pressed by the unsettling of European
liquidation. the stock market made up
its losses and advanced further before
the close of one of the most compre-
hensive upward movela ents of several
weeks occurred i'll spite of the fact
that the demand was 50 limited that
trading throughout was on compare :.
lively small scale. While nearly all
the more important issues developed
weakness at the opening, the stocks in
which there is the greatest amount
actual interest sustained the most
severe losses. The lower prices estab-
lished by this movement prompted
short covering and the list soon rallied.
