climates AS Miss Lily ROsecrans, she
enjoyed wide popularity during her faith
er's term as register of the Treasury,
which extended from 1873 until 1888. She
is devoted to her fathers memory and is
particularly proud of that elegant and
bea i.tfu signature of Gen. Rosecrans
which adornS the currency issued during
his term. 1t is. she says. always with a
thrill of pleasure that she notes that eX-
quisite signature SO dear and so familiar
when she is handling prosaic greenbacks.
and it lends poetic significance to the
duh routine of bartering. Mrs. Toole was
born in Ohio during the period in which
her father was residing near Cincinnati
after his retirement from active service
in the army. Neither she nor her mother
accompanied Gen. Rosecrans when Presi-
dent Grant appointed him as minister to
Mexico. Mrs Toole was only an infant
at that time and her mother was in
rather fragile health. She recalls the Cal
ifornia days very we'll, and her first resi-
dence in Washington was from 1881 until
1885, when her father represented a dis
trict in Congress. Mrs. Toole's mother
was born Miss Anne Hegeman of New
York, and she was the aunt of the first
educated in convent and supplemented
this training with study and travel
abroad.
Autumn seems quiet, restful period
in Washington now, as 1t was during
my girlhood.' said Mrs. Toole. II can
not but draw the contrast between the
broad, peaceful streets here and the live

have our great state fair about this time.
and Helena presents a scene which
would be astonishing to those unprepar-
ed for such brilliancy of effect. Our fair
grounds cover nearly 30 acres, and the
visitor may obtain many different sensa-
tons for the small entrance fee asked.

We crawled up into the open. where stun
wind was blowing. The region was wlid

quake cracks and gullies down which
the horses would almost go on their
noses. and up which they would climb
like the comics of the Alps
All this time it was growing darker
and darker The land was full of stumps
and down timber. and the guide, who was
scrambling along upon his bare feet, fell
again and again. 1 could keep track of
him only by his white straw hat, which
he carried in his hand. This made a faint
light for time. but at last even the hat
was invisible. Then. to crown il all. the
man stopped and said he had lost his

horse disappeared and he went along for
time upon foot.
After while got the horse and
started on again, finally reaching a path
on the edge of the woods after many
climbs over logs. The wind had now
died away and the guide used a candle.
by which he finally brought us through
gullies to a shed known the Lecheria,
perhaps two hours from the crater.

fell in drops like rain. 1t is strange how
