The following story is given a reporter of the San Francisco JBx amxner by a gentleman by the name of J. D. Manely, claiming to bail from Spokane Falls. The story may or may not be true but is worthy ot.repreduction: "COeur d'Alene has a remarka ble history," remarked Mr. Mane ly to an Examiner representative, growing remipiscent. 4sl don't be lieve there ever was such a mining excitement, not even excepting California's '49 days as there was in Cceur d'Alene in '83. I was one of the first to go in and I had a good opportunity to observe the manners of people, who rushed in wild with excitement for they ex pected pulling out a fortune in a month or two, and I can truly state that I never in my life saw a more avaricious class.of human be ings than those who gathered there from every portion of the continent. The excitement first began in the fall of '82, but an invasion was postponed until the spring of '83, as the snow was too .deep ovor the mining surface to do any mining during the winter. Well into the spring, it was about March, they canfe in early to take up claims and then await the disappearance of snow. I must tell you a story which has a strong inclination to waid romance. It was in the month I mentioned the month of March that a meeting was held in James Dowe's saloon to consid er a proposition. There is a su perstition aniong miners that un til a child is born in camp luck will hang about the outskirts and refuse to come where the miners want it most. Tom Jefferson as noble a hearted soul as ever lived who had passed through the sttrnng times of Leadville and the Black Hills, told the men that they would not take out an ounce until a child was Born among them. Well, the meeting I spoke of was held to consider this important question, and what reward should be paid on the child on its birth." "Tom, for a miner, rough, but of splendid temperament, made a rattling speech that ma'gnetized the men, who cheered and voted that 85,000 bo the amount. An advertisement was given to tin stage driver, who took it to Spo kane and had it inserted in tlm Spokane Falls Times" "As the story goes, a week or two after this advertisement ap peared in the paper it felHnto the hands of the wife of a brakeman on the Northern PaciGc who lived at " Duncan, Montana. Her hus band had left early in the morning to make his trip that lasted two days, and left her several papers to read. They were in very poor circumstances, and had scarcely the means to protect them from the bitter cold weather. She was approaching maternity, and when the paper fell into her hands a queer sensation came over her. The advertisement must be for her, she thought. It was then about nine o'clock in the morning, and the westward bound train passed at ten o'clock. When that hour arrived she was the only pas senger who boarded the train at Duncan. She got off at Thomp son Falls, Montana. A stage ran from there to Cceur d'Alene through the Bitter Root mountain country. The day was bitter cold, but she wrapped up warmly and took a seat on the sled with the driver, she being the only passenger. Though much surprised to hear that she was going into the rough mining district, the driver a kind hearted man, made herrt as comfortable as possible, and started at a quick pace. The drive was a terrible one, and before they ar rived at the only stopping place between the station and the mines the lady ha$l fainted, or at least was unconscious from -the cold. She was taken in and when she had recovered she insisted on con tinuing the journey. On they went, but they had proceeded only a few miles when she was again benumbed, and the driver laid her gerrtly injthe bottom of the sleigh and covered her up with robes, re serving only one for his own comfort-After a fearful drive they ar rived in camp at 12 o'clock at night, and soon every man was ardnse d Avith the report that.a lsdy had come in on lite stage an ' that she was nearly frozen. A warm! house was provided for her and Tom Jefferson went in to see her. He came out in a minute and asked if there was a doctor in the crowd. An elderly man stepped forward and announced that ho was a physician and went inside. Half an hour afterward the first child was born in camp. Anxious miners were., awaiting to hear of her recovery, and when the an nouncement was made of the birth of the infant the honest faces of the miners assumed a very grave appearance, and whispers went the round that the man who had taken in that innocent critter should be hanged. The doctor returned to his patient and she revived for the first time since her arrival. Suffi cient strength remained for her to hold up her hand and show the engagement ring." "When the fact was made known to the miners that the child was a legitimate one, satisfaction was never so enthusiastically ex pressed. The miners went wild over the instance and Jim Dowe never did a bigger business in his life than he did that night. Next day the house in which the infant was born w.is surrounded by min ers. They made the day a holi day. Some enje'ed themselves constructing a rude cradle, which the infant a boy was put into; others brushed themselves up to make a good appearanoe for their presentation to the lady who had brought luck to tho camp. When she had related her story not on'3 $5,000 was turned over to her off spring, but the cradle was the re ceptacle of thousands of dollars of gold, which the miners would drop in as they would gaze smilingly at the baby boy, tr3'ing to claim its recognition. They nearly smoth ered it with gold, and at night held another mass meeting at which a claim was voted the child. This claim was worked for the kid by the miners, and proved to be the richest in the Cceur d'Alene region. The brakeman was in formed of the whereabouts of his pretty wife, and he quit braking and went to mining. The child is now four years of ago a happy, wealthy and robust boy.

' There have boen fort'-three snow storms on the Kennebec since November 17th. A letter from Pittston suys one may go scores of miles and not see a foot of bare ground. Frequently the drilts by tho roadside are higher than the horse'?, head, and the ponds and strpams are "still ap parently as solidly covered with ice as in midwinter. A year ago at this time the gardeners were at work on their hot beds. Lumber men are shoveling paths lor dis tances of thirty and forty miles to got their hordes out of the woods, the snow being too deep for the animals to overcome. In the Aroostook region it has been nec essary to jabandon some of the roads, while the rest "have been traveled only with great difficulty. ESiiciilcu) Arxicn Salvo.
