she has visited nearly all tbe accessible

to encounters with hostile negro tribes
or avaricious Arab traders.
The adventurous couple conformed ns
far as possible to the requirements of
savage life and surroundings, hobnobbed
with the natives, made many friends
and no enemies among the dusky deni-

gained much experience and informa

Florence von Sass liecstne in i860 the
Wife of Samuel White Baker. For a
honeymoon trip the couple plunged into
Africa, hunting for tho souroes of the
Nile, and remained in the equatorial
wihls for over five years. They discov
ered and named the Ink« now known as
Albert Nytuua, and on their return to
England in 1866 Mr. Baker received the
honor of knighthood. The time from
I860 to 1873 was spent ill tlie Soudan;
Sir Samuel being employed by the Khe
dive to subdue that regiou and suppress
the slave trade Thereafter, accompanied
as usual by Lady Baker, he wandered
over Cyprus, Syria, India, Japan and
America. During all tbe perilous ex
periences of those stirring years the lady
proved as good a traveler as her hus
band, and faced manifold perils with
never varying courage and coolness.
Two young women now resting at
San Francisco recently completed a
wagon journey of 1,400 miles through a
wild and mountainous section of Mexioo.
Their names are Mary Jaques and Etnma
Hartley. The former is an English girl
and the latter a native of Texas. The
starting point was Junction City, Mias
Hartley’s Lome, 300 miles from the bor
der. The girls drove first to Piedras
Negras, where they crossed the Rio
Grande. From there they made their
BLACK-SMITH
way over precipitous trails to Monterey,
thence to Saltillo, San Luis Potosi, l’a-
cliuca and tho City of Mexico. The ex
cursion occupied three months, and de
spite the fact thnt they passed through
portions of Mexico never before visited
by “gringos," the girls uniformly re
ceived conrtcons treatment. Yet they
spent every night of their outing in a
camp tent, unprotected and with no
arms save a brace of small pistols. They
returned to the United States by rail,
and nro now planning the exploration of
sonic other unfrequented bit of country.
The above are a few of the modern
heroines of travel. All have made en
viable records, but none has equaled
the adventures of Paquette, the first fe-
male European tourist known to history.
Paquette wivt born at Paris, early in the
Thirteenth century. When yet a girl
she becaino a captive of tho Hungarians,
and by tho cha.ices of slavery was trans

Genghis Khan; At the capital of this
powerful monarch she was purchased
and married by a countryman, Gnil-
lauine Buchier, who had roamed far
from liornu and who held the position of
goldsmith to the etuperor. It was at
tho court of Genghis that Paquette met
two monks, sent from France by St.
Louis to convert the Tartars. She acted
•» their interpreter, and did all in her
power to aid them. but they found their
mission unavailing and went away,
marveling not so much at their failure
as at tho courage and good fortune of
tho girl who had withstood tho hard
ships of captivity and of 3.000 leagues of
travel on foot.

under the control of six men. It includes
all tho lines west of the Mississippi ex

managers, though but in middle life, has
come up from the ranks and is familiar
with every detail of the business.
At the head of »he "Big Six” is Chair

Middlebury college in 1863. From cob
lege he enlisted at once as a private, and
came out of the war os lieutenantcolonel
of the Eleventh Vermont infantry. Ho
studied law, practiced in New York city
till 1873, returned to Rutland, served
two years in the state senate, and in 1887
was appointed by President Cleveland
one of the original Interstate Commerce
Commission. In 1889 he resigned, en
