you nna IL awfully lonesome up here! they de-
clare that never for moment after the nrst
half hour following the departure OF the wagon
which had brought up their last load Of sup
plies, when they had a chance to look around,
did they feel the slightest inclination to retrace
their steps,
There were many things, aside from their
work. to keep time from hanging heavily on their
hands In the first place. there was always the
great map spread out at their feet to study by
lights and shadows. Then bird and animal
life were plentiful. filling the air with songs
and chatter: coming to the doorsteps for food.
and often invading the cabin ITSELF Frequently
deer fed around the cabin in the evenings seem
ing to realize that they had nothing to fear from
the two human companions. couple of porcu-
pines also became very friendly and caused no
end of amusement by using various means to
find a way into the cabin at night.
Down by a spring. where they got their water
a small bear made his home and several times
they found the tracks of larger ones on the
trail. They also heard the cries Of panther one
night But they were never molested by any OF
these animals. although they were well armed
to defend themselves II the occasion demanded
During the summer they cultivated a small
garden and raised chickens. These things. added
to their plentiful supply of canned goods. to say
nothing of the mountain trout which they caught
almost at their doorsteps. afforded them q varied
menu Then they were always certain OF a sup
ply OF delicacies when any OF their friends jour-
neyed up from Baker
So the summer months passed. their life
busy and a joyous one. with the lure Of hidden
riches to urge them on in their work. Then one
day. in the fall. the expected vein was uncov-
ered-and the two girls celebrated the discovery
by turning their last cake OF chocolate into
fudge
The finding OF the vein necessitated trip to
Baker to make arrangements for the construc-
ton of a mill and the installation of stamp
battery for crushing the ore. So they locked up
the cabin and started on the 1Smile trip afoot
The mill was erected that fall. and while the
two girls did not actually put it up themselves
they took an active part in its construction and
superintended the work until it was completed
They also helped build q little railroad for the
ore cars from the mine to the mill
The following spring the stamp battery was
put in place and then the real work Of digging
and crushing the ore began. But as this work
was quite beyond the efforts Of even two such
industrious and ambitious young women. they en-
gagged q foreman and . number Of men to assist
in these operations. There II never any ques-
tion. however. ~ to who are the real bosses Of

tnougnt came to one of the eir, They nau
soth grown weary Of teaching. they we're strong
ana neaHny. they were Of an adventurous spirit,
and they had learned lot about the mining
game. Why not work the claim themselves?
1t didn't take the other one more than a sec.
ond to agree that that was Just the thing; II
would be real sureenough lark and as for
making success OF it-well. they would show
the world what two determined girls could do
even II 1t was supposed to be a mans work and
no other woman had ever attempted it before.
The first thing was to arrange for a cabin up
at the mine. The tents which they had shared
with their fathers served well enough In sum-
mer but for winter. when the snow was 20 feet
deep and the thermometer hitting the low spots,
protection Of a more substantial character was
necessary. OF course. all genuine miners work
the year round. at least when there's anything
to do. and having decided to go into the thing
they proposed to see 1t through to a finish.
The result was that they had built q four-room
structure which. while 1t did not make any pre-
tensions to architectural elegance. was guaran.
teed to defy the elements under the most dis
tressing conditions Of weather. With true fore
sight, gained by knowledge OF their life in the
mountains they located the cabin under the lee
of hill where II would be least exposed to the
icy northwest winds and would at the same time
afford an unobstructed view of a magnificent
panorama of ridges and valleys stretching away
to line Of snow-capped peaks more than hun
dred miles distant
Il should be understood that when Miss Car
malt and Miss Norwood came into possession of
the mine 1t WAS more q likely prospect" than
an assured money-maker. Evidences of gold
were plentiful, but the problem was to strike the
rich veins which would yield ore in paying guam
titles and warrant the erection Of a mill to
treat It.
Consequently the first period of their stay in
the mountains was devoted to a search for these
veins, which they never doubted existed some
where back in the mountains. Day after day.
through the summer and early fall, dressed in
overalls and with lighted candles in their miners
cana. they burrowed farther and farther back into
the mountains, frequently branching on from
the main shaft to follow a new lead
Much Of this work. In the loose stone and
earth was done with pick and shovel. but now
and then they found their way barred by Q wall
of solid granite which could only be removed by
hlasting with dynamite With the details of this
vork the two girls were already acquainted. how
Yer 20 the drilling Of holes and the placing and
eefting on of the explosive caused them no con-
cern. Then - the work proceeded the passages

the job. All of the men seem to recognize In
tutively in these two energetic girls the moving
power and the guiding hands behind the whole
project. Quickly and unerringly their eyes sim
gle out any fault in the work. Then In low
pitched modulated voices which nevertheless
have in them a ring of command they give their
orders and the men, with the air of those who
bow to superior knowledge Of the subject are
quick to obey.
The development of the mine is now proceed
ing rapidly and while 1t is too early to predict
what material fortune the young women eventual
ly will enjoy. they seem to be confident that
their efforts will be sufficiently rewarded Al
any rate they count their experience valuable
one. and they have built up fund OF rugged
health and contentment of spirit upon which
they can draw freely throughout the rest OF their
lives.
