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. I 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.
