CHILD LOST 40 HOURS.
Wandered Off in the Moun
tains One Dark Night.
Dr. Brock returned a few diy since
from a professional visit to Honau.a, and
brought back with him tills Interesting
Mory of a lost child. There is a family,
consisting ol father, mother and two small
children, camped near that place. Their
names he did not learn. One night re
cently, between seven and eight oMock,
during the absence of the father, the
mother was preparing her little three or
lour ve.u old girl for bed, having taken olf
the outer, heavier clothing. Her back
was turneJ a moment, her attention being
attracted by the other child. When site
again started to care for the Utile girl, the
latter was gone.
Calling to her and receiving no re
sponse, the mother stepped outside ol the
tent to sec il she was there. The ni;jlu
was very dark, and so the purled in )!lier
brought out a lantern and searched lor the
little one. Falling to hud it and now
thoroughly frightened, site untitled some
near by campers who joined in tin search.
They having failed alter a couple ol hours
hard work, the story was carried to Ho
nau.a, when n large number of miners
organized themselves into parties, systim
ntied the plju of operation and renewed
the search. All of that night, the uet
day, the following night and half ot the
ne.t forenoon did the child hunt continue
before the object ot the search was founc1.
I he little girl was quietly sitting on a
log, picking splinters out ot her teet.
Having been so long without tood, the
men who lound her thought that in all
probabilities she would have been starved
and frightened into insanity, and sought
to approach her cautiously. But she saw
them coming and greeted them with a de
lighted "howdy do." When she lelt the
tent she had on her shoes and stockings.
When lound the former had disappeared
and the latter were worn out. Asked
what had become of her shoes, she said
!Ue had taken them off when she went
to sleep.
I'he little girl was very talkative and
told of the day before seeing a great big
black dog with two puppies, which she
tried to latch, "but they ran away after
their mamma" undoubtedly a bear and
Iter cubs. The child was unite four miles
-from the tent, at a polnt.ln order to reach '
which.a canyon would have to be crossed '
that le.v men other than experienced '
mountain climbers would attempt to cross.
The mother's experiences, fears, an
guish, despair, hope and finally joy, would
make another story, but should not be
tampered with by profane hands.

DcLamar't Great Enterprise.
Perched hi one of the deep gorges ol
South Sinker east of War Kagle iiioun
tain, we found the plant and men en-'
gaged In driving the great hole wlikh is
to tap the famous veins of ore which,
worked from above, have added' so'many
millions to the world's store of previous
metals. The plant is a line our, .consist"!
lug of a large power house, store room,
blacksmith shop, boarding house, office, i
Mables, etc.. all substantially constructed,
roomy and convenient. One mile and a '
half of good mountain road . was con-1
structed from Scotch Bob "to the plant. J
With Messrs. Frederic Irwin as manager,,
James Ingalls, masfr mechanic, Barney
Matlenseu, foreman, work has been
pushed on the tunnel since January.
The hole, 8x8 feet, with a 2x3 foot drain
ditch running-under one side the ditch
planked on the side and top is now in
about 2100 feet, or about one-third of the !
distance required to be run to reach the 1
great Golden Chariot ledge, which it will
tap 2100 feet below the surface. Other'
ledges, fi rther west, bv extending the
tunnel, will be cut at cousiJtrably greater
depths. Where timbering is lequired,
iomo inch souare timbers are used. The
I entire work is now piogresslug sallslac
I torily, e.urpt that the condenser employed
is proving lusiiiVicleut, and a new and .
'larger one will be substituted. Only
about two nuds ol wood per day is re
1 quired to run the compressor and eshaust
, fan. 'I hrre shuts of men are employed.
Mule trains bring the biol.en rock to the
siiifaceand the leveled dumps seive to
increase the yard room, which in the d-ep
gulch is rattier limited. One cannot Help
admiring the pluck and energv of the
men who liave the nerve to put tlitough
an undertaking ol such magnitude, how
ever Mattering tile prospects of a rkli re
ward may be. Del.amar Nugget.
