An Episode at
Kingston
After Which the Old Village
Slowly Crumbled Away
BY EDNA D. HILL

Kingston. from its settlement by q
younger son Of an English nobleman
and its naming for the king Of Eng
land, who ruled at the time. was an
%aristocratic town. There was scarcely
a house in It that was not owned by a
woman. for the men as fast as they
came to years of maturity went to
more active places. But there was
not a woman in Kingston whose house
was not a model Of comfort, whose
silver had not been handed down in
the family for more than a cenary-
some Of them three centuries-and
whose furniture was not antique.
True, much of the original wealth
Of the inhabitants Of Kingston had
been brought there by retired bucca-
neers But those whose silver had
come down to them from ancestors
who had taken 1t from some merchant
vessel, compelling the owner to walk
the plank, argued that in those days

LINED WITH GOLD.
AIaska's Enormous Deposits Will Last
a Thousand Years.

Alaska's Enormous Deposits Will Last
a Thousand Years.
Like a tale out Of the ARABIAN
Nights" is the opinion given recently
by an expert on the future Of Alaskan
gold mining, only this expert bases his
opinion on facts, whereas the oriental
story teller specialized in fancy.
But the testimony given by Falcon
Joslin is doubly interesting because it
exceeds the imagination Of the widest
fancy while being based on the facts
In the case.
"In my judgment" says Mr.. Joslin,
'the placer mining industry in Alaska
will last a thousand years, the area
suitable for placer mining is so enor-
nous. What we are working there
now is only the gravels that will carry
from SO to $40 a yard. You cannot
work gravels that carry less than that,
but nee we have transportation there
and can work gravels such as they do
in California, which carry Z cents a
yard, we have got so nearly al unlim-
tied area of it that no man a foresee
the end Of that industry in Alaska.
Zone great thing is that nearly the
whole area Of Alaska is gold bearing.
There are placers and quartz. 1t has
been said, and I believe the statistics
and explorations Of the geological sur
vey show it, that you could go from
the extreme southeast of Alaska at
Ketchikan, where there are important
mines, along this route by way Of
Hams clear out to Nome, a distance of
1000 miles in a straight line, and that
in every twenty mile section along
that route you coulG develop gold
mines. 1t is infinitely greater than
any other area of gold country that
has ever been found in the world

piracy was INDUCED in by persons of
aristocratic birth, the present owners,
and were therefore quite proud of the
name in which 1t had been obtained.
The aristocratic center of Kingston
consisted Of two blocks on the main
tho~roughfare. There was not a house
on these two blocks whose front door
was not fanked with side lights and
arched glass above and whose garden
was not situated in the rear, inclosed
by a big wall. Some of the knockers
on the doors were known to be 300
years old. There was a disposition in
the town to gauge the families by the
age Of these knockers. which were
considered in lieu Of coats of arms.
In these aristocratic two blocks was
one house smaller than the rest
though houses built I'm colonial times
were not large-which had finally pass
ed to the ownership Of an old maiden
who had died at the age of n~inety-tRo.
She being the last of her family. at
her demise the house was shut up and
remained closed for twenty years. One
day the street w8s electrified by the
presence Of a painter and decorator at
the Olmstead house, rs it was called,
and a still stronger current was turned
on at the subsequent appearance Of
a boy Of twenty and a girl Of eighteen,
who were evidently a bride and groom.
They settled down in the old house
like a pair Of birds Just mated and
about to build a nest.
Their appearance was a signal for
the collection of groups of women in
different houses in the district where
the innovation had occurred. Had a
bomb been discovered in the middle
Of the street, its fuse splitting venom
u fire, the commotion could not
have been greater. The parties inter-
ested were a few old ladies whose
husbands were living, a large number
Of widows, a stil larger number Of
old maids, with a small crop Of maid
n coming on. Such a thing as n
