A REMARKABLE WOMAN

Relieved of its effusion of repor- toriaI fancy, the bare facts concern ing the career of a recent visitor in Seattle, as told in the Post-Intel- ligencer, makes a remarkable story.
 Born in Ireland in 1847; emierat- ed to the United States few years later; rounded tho Horn in a sailing vessel and arrived in San Francisco about 1860; spent several years in Virginia City in the days when the Comstock was in its glory; sailed for Victoria, B. C., in 1874 and at once organized a patty for the re- lief of miners in the Cassiar district who were threatened with death from scurvy; went Outside after two years and found diversion Dy run ming a store in Tombstone, AriSona when the town offered a real thrill almost every hour; joined the van guard to Dawson during the golG. rush of 1897; tosk $1O0.OOO out oi Bonanza creek; settled later al Nolan, in the Koyukuk mining die tyict, 48O miles by dog-team iron Fairbanks; and now, at the age O "A, calls that her home.

Bride of a Year
 Takes Own Life

A letter received locally con- tained the following, clipped from San Francisco newspaper:
 Worried over her physical condition and nervous and hysterical after sleepless night, Mrs. Marcelle Van ephen, wife of Jean Vanophen, Bel gian noblerhan and millionaire mining broker and operator, attempted to eenozsit sticide at the Inverness Apart nHents today. (Feb. l5.
 She is believed te be dying at the Central Emergency Hospital. Mrs Van. opAen is only 20 years old, the bride oE a yeah. She was married in Paris early in 1920 and until recently had enjoyed the best of health.
 This morning she went into the bath room of her apartment and shot herself with an automatic revolver. She had evidently fired one bullet which missed it's mark, but the second struck her in the temple and she was in a sinking condition when found.
 The discoveey of the attempted sui eide was made by Dr. George H. Juilly who has been treating Mrs. Vanophen for neurasthenia.
 Vanophen said his wife had learned to handle a revolver during time spent in Alaska where he has large mining interests.
 Later---Mrs. Vanophen died { few hours after being taken to the hospital

FAIR WARNING

Before you take drink of white mule or raisin jack, lamp this in- formation that comes to us from a circus authority: There are oI!y 100 snake charmers left in the country. With 1OG,OOO,OO0 people in this country this would give one snake char.ner to each 100000 people. This means that your snakes will have to wait their turns aud go uncharmed until the snakes of 999, ,999 other people have been attended to. We hate to start a panic, but facts is facts.-White- horse Star.

"Cat" Takes
 High Dive

Except for ta@ fact that the wea- ther was clear and they had remoV- ed the hood fsom the tractor they were operating. tho driver, William Westwood, and his helper, Max Behrman, would iR all probability have lost their lives when the ma chine plunged from the wharf into the haEbor. The caterpillar is cov- cred with IS feet of water at low tide. Captain Swanson of the launch Provincial who is also a deep sea diver, came into port at an oppor- tune time and has been engaged to raise the machine. He had to go to Rupert for his outfit and expects to return Monday and commence operations.
 The tractor was hauling its custo- mary load of four trailers with ore from the Premier. The roads were vepy icey and the down-hill grade from the road to the wharf sent the sleds ahead faster than the trac- tor could travel, with the result that it was pushed to one side and over the wharf. Behrman, who was on the left side of the seat, jumped as far as he could to clear the wreck making a clean dive from a height of about 30 feet, and then swimm- ing through the darkness to a pile to which he clung until Paul Mea- gher arrived with a rowboat and took him ashore. Tom Powers, the Premier dock foreman, went dowr the pile with a rope, and fastened it around Max, who was thoroughly chilled by his ice-Water bath. For tunately, there was good fire anc dry clothing in the companys offic' on the wharf, and Gener,l Manager Pitt soon fitted him out 70 that ii a few minutes he was none thu worse from the exposure.
 When Westwood jumped he Ian ded on the wharf and was uninjuroC except foT bruised knee.
