WOMEN LACKING IN
. NEVADA'S NEW CAMP
Portlander Writes of Ideal Bachelors' Home- Miners Gave Dance
. at Which Mexicans and Indians, ; but No Girls, Were " V
: i 0 Present- Populace Astounded to See Cow.
o An interesting Utter describing condi
tions In torn of the mining camps In
Nevada. the now eldorado, was reoelred
yesterday afternoon by. Dlatrtot Fore
caster Edward A. Beala, from Herman J.
Andre of the weather bureau aervios,
. who left Portland a few weeka exo to
spend his vacation In the camps. Mr,
Andro is a traveler of much experience,
hevlng been a member of the Zlegler
polar expedition a few years ego, sl-
. though but a young man. He writes:
"This camp la 80 miles from the near-
est railroad and is reached br state.
. It is a mining camp in which there are
a few houses and many tents. There
wer - no women - in -the eamanntll - a
short time ago, now there ara about a
dosen and more are coming. Tha ore
in this eamp was discovered br Fife and
Bills who were grubstaked by C F.
Nichols. There is plenty of good ore In
camp but so far nona of those interested
have had the money to develop It and
whenever a buyer who ha money comes
along they ask too high a price for It
7 , High Altitude. 7.7; 77
' "Our altitude la about 7,000 feet We
enow every few daye. Tha moun
tains here ara covered with plna trees
and sago brush with a little grass at
oatterad places. Tha valleys grow vary
: little besidoa saga brush. There ara atx
different kinds of llsarda that I have
seen, several kinds of snakea, scorpions,
lack rabbits, gophers, eta. An oocaalonal
'coyote comes near camp and X ran into
a prairie hen's nest today. - A few In
dlana ara encamped a short dlstano
, from tha townslte. Tha other day that
- discovered for the first tlma In their
Uvea that they ara not allowed to out
down alt tha trees that they wish, but
we cannot hava tha beauty sf tha streets
of our town marred avan though they
' look Just tha same as all tha rest of tha
. prairie. , - ' ;
This Is an excellent opportunity to
study whirlwinds. There is one large
plain several hundred sonars miles In
area and Surrounded by high anow-cov
ered mountains on which we can sea
Mgb spires of dust every day that tha
sun shines smd on aoma days there ara
several at a time, aoma of them appear
- Irrarto ba several hundred feet high. We
- hava also become very familiar with tha
' clouds. 77,
rush Clouds Aside,
I : ran right Into a large cumulua
this morning. We merely shove them
aslda whan they ara in our way and
pass on. The cirrus are a little too
high ' to float ' along our streeta but
stratus and cumulua ara frequent visi
tors. " The air Is so light on account of
altituda thanewcomers ara not able to
' do nearly as much hard work as thay
are accustomed to. - - . v
'There Is very little excitement hem
Occasionally soma old broncho buster
from Mexico gets drunk and shoots a
few holes in tha teats. One man cut
hi throat because tha bartender would
not trust him for drinks, another one
became insane from a fall In a shaft,
. but is now harmless. The most exclte
. tnent occurred tha other day. .
. . "It waa all due to a French rancher
brittgtnr a-real live brlndle cow Into
twn the first one that many of tha
eltlaens had seen for six months or
more.- Crowds thronged tha main street
staring as they never stared before.
Soma ear that it created as much of a
atlr as aoma weeks ago) when tha flrat
girl came riding In on a freight wagon.
Tha whole town, consisting of about SCO
human beings, three Indians and two
doga welcomed that cow.
TronbU With Wild Koreas.
." "While writing of wild animals, we
have a real wild horse in camp only ha
ia not wild any more. Several men ran
him into a corral and wa all went out
on the plain and watched them lasso tha
horse, throw him, tie him so ha could
neither kick nor, run rapidly and then
they began riding him. He is as tama
as any animal in camp now and hauls
.wood. 'W.v. : -.'- ;--"
1 "Everybody out here is looking; for
gold, ' , Mining stock is plentiful. A
bunch of shares is frequently ahovad
over tha bar for a glass of beer. -Sometimes
the bartender refuses several
thousand dollars (face value) worth of
shares for a drink. Ho haa to make a
living. However, the companies - that
I am Interested In hava tha, stuff that
brings- tha money. ; The . only trouble
is that one cannot sea how muoh deeper
the ore extends. "'--""';:;.
"There ara men hero who ara broke
and at tha same tlma refuse f 100,000
for a part of their claims Just because
they think they ara worth mora. One
fellow traded his claim the other day
to tha washerwoman in exchange for
doing up ' his soiled shirts. She waa
swindled, a i neipea xne man locate
that claim and know wnat it ia worth.
Theatre fa Teat.
" "There ara several ex-cowpunohers In
town, two ex-Jockeys, aeveral former
vaudeville actora . and soma : fiddlers.
There is a show In tha big tent every
night Tha big tent is a real estata of
fice. It has a board floor and la ex
cellent for buck and wing dancing.
There ara also several good singers in
tha crowd, .
. "Tha greatest or what wa to have
been the greatest social event of the
season was a complete failure. If you
read tha Duluth Tribune you would
bava thought the whole thing came off
with rosea, music, eta It was like this:
"Pat O'Mallery got to thinking and
this Is what ha thought: There air
aevrel wlmmen in town now, w oughter
hava a danoa that they'd be invited to.'
With these weighty matters on his mind
be cama into tha real estata office one
night where all tha men were congre
gated and unloaded them. All of tha
men fell In and invltatlona were Is
sued. -.- , ' : ... ; A"' "J .
"When tha tlma cama tha fiddler waa
there, and tha men were there fixed up
to the limit; old cow punchera from
Texaa and minora from Mexloo flOgetlng
around and acting a though they felt
at home In standing collars and ahinad
shoes, a couple of Indiana but not one
woman. ..;

The dance was held but without tha
assistance of tha girta of Duluth. Tha
reason that the trofuth Tribune earns
out with such a glowing account waa
because I , wrote the whole affair up
before It came off as tha Tribune came
out the following day and could not aet
it un after. the dance. It read like an
event of New Tork's 400. .; . j
"Next day Mexican Joe made a search
ing investigation as to the reason the
men had been turned down ao complete
ly. Here is the result: - Mrs. Rose, who
runs the bakery, had bread, rising. The
rest of the men were of a jealous dis
position and did not . believe In their
wives dancing around with young men.
It will be a long time before Duluth
can compete socially with Phonollte, a
rival camp a mile and a half away.
Whenever one of our men goes over
there he eomes back with a face that
looks a though It had been through a
threshing machine, and i whan one of
their men oomes over here ha goes home
with a face that look aa though It
had been through two threshing ma
chlnee. . They are of ft Quarrelsome dis
position and Jealous because there are
II men and 11 more woman in Duluth
than In Phonolite" 7 . , .,..-

. . (Journal Special gwriee.)
London. May SO. The - Duchess of
Marlborough la now fairly settled into
graas-wldowhoed consequent t her sep
aration from the duke. . The duohess la
no longer the supple, pliant woman,
ready to bend to her husband's every
wish and will. Instead, her grace la
showing astonishing business instinot
She manages entirely her own affairs,
and haa a huge establishment at Sun
derland house, under her direct per
sonal control. - , .
Her new existence Is calling forth
what in her are strange qualities. She
haa become a little, imperious, and ex
hibits little displays of temper that pre
viously were entirely foreign to her.
She still regularly receives her legal
adviser, Hon. Charles Russell, but his
visits ar unconcerned with the duchess
personal troubles. They now relate to
the management of ner fortune.
During the duchess's recent stay at
Beaulieu the duke could not resist the
temptation to . stroll around , Sunderland
house. The duohess is throwing her
self with unbounded seal and enthus
iasm into charitable work. Her inter
est! in the church la keener than ever.
The . duke and duchees have never
been known to meet aince the day the
terms of the separation were arranged.
It la reported that the duchess does
not' care to hear the duke' a name men
tioned,, and aha ahowa obvious irrita
tion when her - personal affair are
discussed. v : : (' :' . '.- 7' l
The duchess expects to leave London
June 15, proceeding to Venice, where
she Joins her father's yacht for a cruise
in the Mediterranean. Afterward, It Is
said, fhat if the yacht returns to New
York with her father, aha may accom
pany him Inatead of crossing on ft liner.
