dians, and from 1866 to 1870 served as
Judge in Grant county.
His first important attempts at
writing were made here, and he tried
to sell a collection of his poems un-
der the title Of Songs of the Sierras"
in the east They did not find ready
market, and he finally went to Eng
land, where they were published and
created a sensation. 1t was in Lon
don that Miller was recognized, petted,
lionized and even overestimated per-
haps.
The poet returned from England
and went to Washington, and finally,
in 1877, to California and settled at
The Heights, where his retreat soon
became the Mecca for literary people.
At times persons with literary or ar
tistic tendencies, forswearing the
world for a time, have gone to Mil
ler's home as a haven of refuge. Here
are buried the bodies of Maud Miller,
the poets daughter, and of his mother
1t has been said that the poet de-
sired to have his own body burned
upon the pile of rough stones that
cover his child's grave, but the truth
of his request is that he be cremated
and the ashes placed upon the pile,
that the wind may scatter them far
and wide over the land he loved so
we'll
His life has not been spent in the
ways of ease and luxury, such as one
usually associates with the existence
of poets. He has 'roughed it" and
has lived hard. He has fought and
has been beaten; he has fought and
he has won.
Today he sits before his home on
the veranda, with its trellised vines,
and receives the care of wife and
daughter. He sits by the hour gazing
out from the secluded Heights upon
the cities, the bay, the ships and the
hills beyond that through twenty-five
years or more he has watched and
studied and loved. Every little atten-
ton that a woman knows SO well how
to bestow is showered upon the white
haired man, the patriarch of the Oak
land hills, known the world over for
his flowery verse, his eccentricity, his
love of the beautiful and of California.

Nobody ever understood why Bella
consented to take Betty's place with

threw on a dressing gown and went

Real "GoId Bricks"

Gold bricks, real ones. may be the
means of restoring the ancient fame
of Go1conda, near Hyderbad, in south
ern India, once known all the world
over for its gold mines, but now de-
cayed city. The natural pits from
which many centuries ago the precious
metal was extracted have in course ct
time filled up with water. A contrac-
tor recently obtained permission to
make bricks near the place and ten
kilns were erected. The first finished
bricks aroused curiosity by their yell
lowish tint. and analysis proved that
they contained gold dust. On the ba-
sis of the yield of the sample bricks,
the ten kilns will aggregate in weight
1857 pounds of gold worth over $780,
100000 The site of the find belongs
to the Nizam, or native ruler, whose
affairs are administered by British
secretary, who has worked hard for
nine years to produce surplus in the
Nizams last annual budget of $15.0OO,-
600. 1t looks insignificant now COM
pared with the result of nine days
brickmaking.
