Emma Nevada, according to all account, lives very much like an athlete in training. At 9o’clock inthe morning she takes her chop, a cup of tea and two slices of bread without butter. At noon she goes -to church and says her prayers (in this she is unlike an athlete), then she takes along walk, and at 3 she eats her dioner, which consists of a bowl of boullion,a slice of under-done roast beef, baked potatoes, roast chicken, boiled rice and stewe! prunes. After dinner she takes a nap, and at 6 dresses for the theater. After the opera she has a beefsteak and a glass of beer and then goes to bed. OSS Se nal Tributers Doing Well.

The three came to the office and tl miners read over two or three times the letter referred to, commenting on its contents as they did so. : “Guess I won’t start for Alaska just yet,” said one of them as they were “ aving the room, “‘Same here,’’ said the other. This is the letter that caused them to change their notions about striking out for the frozen fields of the Yukon.
