The mining towns of the west liavo had

nvo sprang Into cxlatcnco In a Uny and do-
eloped Into towns of moro or less linpcr-
ancc In a year or tno. Many have held

lines which gave them birth. Many liavt
Isappeared 'from ' the map , and where once
fc the active border llfo that Is fast bfl'
-omlng a memory , reigned In Us varied
hases , decay and desolation Is now en.
ironed. None of the deserted camps of tin
rest In their best days reached the proten.
ous altitude or now presents as great (
pectnclo of desolation and ruin ns th (
wrecked town of Fort Payne , Aln.
The story of Fort Payne , recently the
ride and hope of so many New UnglanO
eoplo , Is related by a correspondent of tin
t. Louis Qlobe-Uemocrat , and presents n
raglc lesson to enthusiastic Investors In dls
ant properties.
The company that boomed the ill-storm
own was organized In the fall ot 1888. H
.as looking for Iron and coal , and In th <
Icinlty of a little- village on tlio Alabami
Great Southern rn'lroad ' It found both it
Idlest profusion. Jt was In the beautlfu
V'llls valley , -with mountain ranges on clthei
Ide Lookout on the cast and Sand moun
atn on the west.
In selecting the officers of the companj
are was taken by the prime movers In tin
ntcrprlso to cheese from various points met
if Influence In their own districts mon o
terllng Integrity and honor. New Knglaiu
was thoroughly canvassed , for It was in thli
cctlon that the stock was principally offered
> uch vvns the faith In these men that wlthli
month KOOO.OOO of the ? 5,000.000 the sun
irlglnally fixed as the capital of the com
iany was token. In January , 1880 , th
irospectus went forth : "It Is the Intentloi
> f the stockholders and officers of the Kor
'ayno Coal and Iron company to build i
manufacturing city In the Wills valley a
'on Payne , and If the results obtained li
ther localities , many of them with far los
advantages , can bo taken as a criterion , tin
accomplishment of the object can readily b <
attained The company has laid the founda
Ions broad and surrounded the entcrprls
vlth men whoso financial skill and judgmeji
are a guarantee that the Inexhaustible re
vourcos of this fine property will be care
ully and fully developed , and , as a natura
result of suqh development , a city will rls
n Its midst , " etc.
Early In 18S9 the pioneers arrived In th
illago and began the foundations of the nev
city. Uroad avenues and streets were lali
out and carefully graded ; building went 01
with great rapidity ; houses sprang up a
f by magic ; moro pretentious homes , will
leautlful grounds , quickly followed ; man ;
nero were caiofully planned to be bull
ivhen the expected fortunes were realized
Young men from our various college
ngerly Bought positions with the companj
and a really charming lot of people becam
lettled there. It was called the "New Kng
and of the South , " and truly It might be
'or from , each and every town , village an
: lty were culled the men of means or In
luence/
As the mining and manufacture of Iror
which was everywhere so abundant , was t
jo the principal feature. Iron-working plant
und furnaces were established. Coal wa
everywhere , too. Coking coal was dlscovore
and coke ovens were built. A rolling ml !
hrid steel plant was"equipped. . Stove works
abaskef factory,1 an Ice factory , a flre-cla ;
works , a hardware plant and many moro In
dustrles were well established within a yeai
. A complete system of sewerage , wate
works and n fine electric plant to lllumlnat

Beautifully fitted with every comfort. A
academy with a well selected corp ? ot teacli
crs was established , for hero was to be
center o'l learning aa well a ? of Industry
hurclieg were built and an opera house.
In eighteen months from the time of start
ng the prophecy set forth In the prospectu
was fulfilled , for a model city stood In th
place of cotton fields.
The taxable property Increased during thl
period from J14G.C33 to $3,000,000

Excursion nfter excursion Ind been planned
ml executed during these eighteen months ,
rlnglnp ; from New Knglaml * homes hard
nrncd savings to bo deposited In the
'Ulectrlc City. " These excursions wore nl-
-ays - lavishly arranged. After a delightful
ournoy from Huston the \pBtllni1cd trains
ftcn tvvelve In number wotiitl arrive In the
arty even lug of the second day , when the
wInkling llnhtn of the little city shone out
rllllantly The visitors were tnhen at mice
o the famous hotel , the ( lining room of whlcl
vas most Rttractlvc. Its wnltafsvcro well
rlllrd , nnd a well Unown chef from Iloalon
ttundoil to the cuisine. The guests were
nthtislastlcnlly welcomed and well enter-
alncd. What wonders \vcro shown thoin !
'hey subscribed eagerly to ever ) thing ,
< oath to leave , they returned homo com-
ilotcly under the charm of the place and
nrrlcd the tale ot wonder to their friends
nducliiR them also to Invest.
A year passed , nnd Instead of marvelous
e turns there CAIIIO Imperative demands foi
iiore money. The Investors must protect
heir Interest , so moro money was raised
nany homes being mortgaged to do this.
When the company had drained one BOO-
Ion It reached out In another direction , A
oily party of Chicago business men foum
ho place very nttractlvc and Invested coil'
Idcrnbly In the new enterprises. Hut wtl )
iislness men from the northwestern cities
ere not caught. They cntno and saw , bul
vero not conquered , and toilay have reasor
or congratulation
Times began to change ; money , once sc
ilentlful nnd free , wan harder to get ; still
ho people had fulth In their \\oiulerful town
'hey boon began to criticise the manage
nont. Too much money had been uxpondci
n n fancy railroad -to the coal lands. H
vni n pretty rldo up the steep mountain
quite no\el , yet complaints were heard The
; icat furnaces that were to maUo such won
lerful steel and Iron were obliged to shu
lown for lack of funds.
Some of the officers of the company , re
llzlnp ; their false position , withdrew fron
ho enterprise. In the spring of 1891 pteparn
Ions were made by the most promlnon
vorkers In the field to withdraw quietly
Hliers followed as quickly ns possible al
it n heavy loss and so the exodus began
The academy closed Us doors ; the hotel wai
hut up ; all building was suspended , and tin
> eople were panic stricken. All who couli
cave went nway. Uut there were many win
could not leave , for their Interests were nl
centered thero.
One bright joung Janycr , who had left i
rood practice , with good social position , li
ho cast , to build up a homo at Fort I'ayno
irlnglng a clmimlng wlfo and family , wa :
so tortured by the situation that ho resorlei
o a dangerous drug to still his anxiety , am
s now bereft of homo and wife , the woman'
loath being hastened by the change in thi
once happy llfo.
One man , somewhat elderly , but full o
Ifo nnd vigor , gave up his prosperous busl
ness and lovely home. In a Vermont tovvi
0 Invest all at Kort 1'ayne. This man , sttd
denly aged , by this blighted trouble , hi
ier\ous condition developing Into Insanity
dicnl alone nnd deserted In n Ma&sachusott
nsane asylum last July.
Another man was so overcome with c\
cltcment In the early days to troubled tha
10 could not get nil the land ho wnntcd-
: hnt his brain became unbalanced nnd ho I
low an Inmate of an insane asylum. Man ;
others followed In his pathway , and suicide
were frequent.
One > oung man , who l.ad Inherited a sniti
'ortuno , placed it all In the hands of i
: rusted agent to bo Invested for him a
Tort I'ayno , so gtent was his faith In th
ilnce. A charming villa was to be bull
Tor him on the outskirts of the town , for h
vns coming with his brldo In the fall Th
liouse was never occitplel save by tramps
nnd It stands nlono and deserted.
Ono of the chief officers of the company ,
man respected by all , of strictest Integrll )
surrounded by friends and by every comforl
n piomlnent attorney In his own city , lei
all behind to place his fortune hero. Thl
man thoroughly believed in the greatest sue
cess for the venture , nnd , reaching out I ;
nil directions , brought every friend and rela
Uvo he could to the place , desiring them t
ihare In the glorious profits to come. H
has left nil behind him to begin llfo anew li
northern city. Ho la broken In splrll
To all his own troubles he has the ndde
rnng of remorse for the friends and Klndre
w recked through their faith In him. Many
many other Instances of horror nnd despal
could bo quoted , for of all the bright glor ;
only ashes remain.
The wilier was painfully Impressed by th
'lesolnto ' appearance the lltllo town prescnto
leccntly. It was night when the vlslto
arrived , and tha blackness of old Lonkoul
irlni and dark against the horizon , but em
[ ihaslzed the painful contrast to the appear
unco of the gay little city four years age
It Is a tragic tale the rise nnd fall of thl
llttlo town carrying with it desolation an
despair Into so many once happy homes an
hearts In New England.
The beeautlfitl homes , costing so man :
thousands of dollars , laid out with sue !
loving pride , are owned now by the native
of the place people who had lived In "call
Ins" before the boom , whose ' "farms" ha
been so eagerly bargained for and wh
could afterward use the money thus give
Lhem to buy for a mere song the lovcl
liomcs built there. Those vvho do not bu
cilmly select a house anywhere and prc
ceed to dwell therein. No rent can be co !
lected from them , for they once moro rul
the town , so wonderfully Improved for thci
by the "Yankees. "
All the Industries arc lying Idle , many c
them dismantled by the men having charg
of them for the past tlireo years , scllln
the fine machinery to pay their own salarle :
All Is waiting for a purchaser. The vvho !
town , costing more than $5,000,000 , could I :
bought today for $50,000 or less. Dut wi )
will buy ?
Of all the outsiders vvho Invested In Foi
Payne , but ono is recalled who did not suffc
by the reaction. Ho did not wait for it I
come , lie arrived early In the spring <
1889 , without money and apparently fricm
less. For weeks ho sat around In tl
different real estate olfices , constant !
smoking an old pipe. No one paid any a
tontlon to him , but ho was getting point
and , finally , managed to borrow some mnnc
from n good natured broker. lie Invested I
land , vvas very lucky , and had many qulc
returns from his real e tate ventures. The :
while the fever was at Its height nnd ei
thiislasm boundless , while ho might safe :

The recent exploits ot two female highway
robbbcrs In a part ot West Virginia recall
the rather romantic story ot the llfo nnd
death of Nell I'rescott , old Virginia's first
highway woman. Nell was born and lived
and died within sixty miles of ParkersburR ,
says a correspondent of the CJIobe-Democrnt ,
ami. though her span of existence only ex
tended over some twenty years , she made.
things lively In the mountains while she did
live. Vet her daring on the rend had a
lilting climax In the unique manner of her
capture and melancholy death.
Nell Prescott lived and died "bcto1 d

Job Prcscott , who lived nt the foot ot old
Hold Top mountain. As a school girl sh
was bright , Intelligent and studious , and II
Is generally believed that It was the cxtroma
poverty of her parents that drove her to tha
highway.
IJarly In the spring of 18S3 a rattle buyer
named Jonnlngj reported to Sheriff Mul-
cahey that while crosslnn n.ild Top and when
near the county line ho caught up with a
prepossessing , boyish-looking follow on tha
trail , who said ho had walked from Llnwood
nnd was goingto Deorlng , a little settlement
nlno miles this wny from the mountains.
Jennings offered the wayfarer a scat behind
him on the horse , which oder was thankfully
accepted. Tluu mounted the pair rode mer
rily on their way , chatting plensuntly as they
proceeded. Jennings thought his companion
wna a very entertaining fcllnw , nnd was nil
unconscious of danger until , while passing
thtough n narrow delllc , . he felt the muzzle of
a pistol pressed against his head , and a volca
exclaiming from behind :
"Give mo your money or clso I'll shootl"
Jennings wus dumfounded by the sudden
nnd unexpected turn of affairs , but as he
heard the pistol click , knew there was
nothing else to do but to comply with the
command , nnd ho nt once drew out a roll
of bills , amounting to $ . ! 00 , which was Im
mediately snatched from his hand by till
boyish companion , who leaped lightly from
the horse to the ground , and then cooliy
said.
"Stranger , you're broke now , nnd as I
took the pistol from your belt to do the
job , I'll give you $20 so as to get another. "
Then the robber disappeared , nnd Jen
nings went disconsolately on his way to
Huntley , where he found the sheriff. Mill-
call ey at once dispatched n posse ot otllcera
In pursuit of the highwayman , nnd , although
they scoured the mountains for three days ,
could obtain no trace of him. Three wc-cks
aftcrvvnrd a peddler was held up and robbed
of $ C3 near the t > amo spot where Jennings
had been despoiled of his money on the
Llnwood trail. This deed was done by a
small , bewhlbkered desperado , From thence
highway robberies were frequent on the
mountains.
The Inhabitants of the sparsely settled
country believed they were at. the mercy of
nn organised band ot highwaymen , for In
no two rases did the descriptions of the
robber tally. The fact , though , that the
crimes were nlwn > s committed by one person
nnd In a certain locality nt last led the au
thorities to doubt the existence ot a band
of robbers and to believe that nil the "jobs"
were the work of but ono Individual. At
once they set about effecting his capture.
Jinny attempts were made In that direction ,
but all to no effect. At last , however , U
was deemed necessary to have deputy sheriff a
constantly patrolling- mountains and $500
rcwnrd was ottered for the capture nnd con
viction ot ritiy highway robber. This offer
set many private citizens on still hunts , nnd
at last Gnbe Jlmlson and Al Wheaton devoted -
voted their time lo the pursuit of the un
known highwayman Ono morning , accom
panied by Gabo's bloodhound , Jennie , they
were on their way up Rattlesnake mountain ,
when they met a Hebrew puck peddler , who
an hour before had been hold up by a bearded
highwayman oil the Bentley road nnd robbed.

The peddler accompanied Gabe and his
companion back to the place where the rob
bery occuircd , and the dog was placed on
the highwayman's trail. The hound vva
held in leash so as to keep her constantly
within range of her owner's rifle. Thus thl
trio of men , led by the dog , followed the
trail around the mountain side , through
the woods and across chasms and brooks ,
Jennlo baying loudly the while. After a
two hours' journey , and when ncarlng Hunt-
Ity , Jennie begun tugging furiously at her
Icash , and Gube knew she was hot on the
trail , and at last he caught a glimpse ot a
human form flitting through the trees ahead.
Instantly Gabe Jlmlsun raised his rifle and
fit oil , but , apparently , without effect , for
the chase- was continued , but teen ended at a
fallen tree , 'Into which the highwayman had
so ight concealment Gabo and Al knew they
had treed their "coon , " nnd that his capture
was inevitable , so the hound was riM. allowed
U > enter the aperture. Gabo kicked the log
repeatedly , then shouted "Come out o'
thar an' s'rcnder ter th' law or I'll smother
ycr with smoke , [ or vve'tins has yer sho1. "
There was no response to the stern com
mand. Not n sound cnuld be heard from
within the log. Evidently the robber was
disinclined to surrender , so Gabe and Al held
a consultation of war In whispers , which
ended In the latter going to summon as
sistance whllo Jlmlson remained to guard
the selMmprl oncd captive.
It was shortly after 1 o'clock when Al re
turned accompanied by three vvoodmon and

Ing to smoke out the robber by a fire , at the
bnso of the fallen tree , and directed another
method of getting hold of the robber , which
was to split the log open So , with axes and
wedges the log was cpllt , disclosing within u
motionless human form. The aperture vv ts
materially widened , while the deputy sheriff
und Gabe stotd on the alert with drawn re
volvers , and nt last the officer reached down
and grasped the form by the shoulder , saying
at the same tlmo :
"I arrest you in the name of the Common
wealth of Virginia for highway robbery. "
There was no response. With n vigorous
jerk he turned the form over , nnd then
jumped back aghast. The bearded face that
confronted his was that of the dead. Gabc's
bullet had done its work. The robber had
been shot through the back. In raising
the body from the log the whiskers w6rn
were discovered to bo false , and when the
olllcer removed them Gabo Jlmlson ex-
cHlmed : "Holy smoke. It's Nell ProscotJI
Hoys , I'm flabbergasted. "
Some of hla companions also recognized
the pretty face , nnd , despite the tact that
the form was clad In male uttlrc , declared
U to bo that of old Job 1'rescott's daughter.
It was mercifully decided to not Inform
the Prescott family of the death of Nellie ,
and to , after viewing the body , the coroner
ordered It Interred on the mountain Bide.

were no more highway robberies lu that

A melancholy sequel to the death ot Null
