She is of frau appearance, not. however, bow ed with the weight of her years. and as she took my hand in both her own. her head was scarcely on a, level with my shoulder.

 EARLY SCENES.

 Where in childhood we have played craggy steep and rugged mountain.
 Fairy glen. and peaceful glade. Early scenes-the gushing fountain,
 And the cottage in the vale.
 Flowers a sisters hands have planted
 Breathing odors to the gale. Early scenes-the weeping willow. Aged elm. and tow ring pine, Sturdy oak and creeping ivy.
 Where the woodbine loves to twine Early scenes-the village schoo

 oht that old familiar spot, Wakes a thousand tender feelings
 Which can never be forgot Early scenesAthe village churchyard
 Where the friends we love repose- : There the lonely star of midnight
 Silently it's Iustre throws.

ONE from Bullion. The strike of
hundred dollar ore in the Webfoot
tunnel means great things for that
camp.
This tunnel is in a thousand feet
and the vein is tapped at a depth of
about i've hundred feet. The Webfoot
is believed to be an extension of the
Sweepstakes vein where the rich
strike was made in July and lies a
thousand feet to the east.
This proves up a large ares OF
ground at considerable depth. The
grade of the ore is so high as to give
the belief that Bullion is entering up,
on bonanza days.
One especially pleasing feature of
the Webfoot strike is the gold values
found in the porphyry. The tunnel
had crosscut a hundred feet of por.
phyry before 1t encountered the con.
tact vein lying ext to the lime.
The last twenty-six feet of this Dor
phyry ran as high as three and a half
dollars in gold and fourteen ounces in
