In tho spring of 18.11 1 got lOKiillii'i' n small tliearlenl trotipo In Hnerauu'iiU), nml with n tno liorno wagon for n convoyaiieii started up to "ilo" tho milling camps in tlio luoiiiitalus of l'lncer county, In tliow early days no nilvatieo nijont wni needed and no prlntlnir over lecornted tlio wnlNi tlio slinplo nmiouuec iiieut, "Hliow to-nlRlit," painted on n pleeoof iiiuvas nml hung up at tlio hall, being suf flelent to notify every ono In tlio camp of tlio coming nlllletlou. My company coiulsted of olx H'uile, thrvo inalo nnd two female perforiuuti nnd n ono eyed llddler, tlio latter iietlng as cook nml teamster, for wo carried iv iupply of "grub" for use when wo could 1:0c strlto n camp at meal tlmo. Our roerlolni consisted of n linlfdoren "roaring farces," moiihi of thorn venerablo cliestuutM which liul long ilueu fallen from tlio dramatio tnv, and olliom fun provoking inoiistrmltles thrown together by myself with llemlUh ivcklessuciH, my solo aim being loader to tho somow hat unvarnished Insten of tho rough mliiero, whono jellow dust 1 coveted with true maungerinl oageruest, AVo played lo good huslnoo at several eainp-4, mid ono forenoon rolled into n soltlo Meiit which Ikicu tho euphonious name ''Red Uog,"and which wo had been told was ono of tlio liveliest on nips In tho "dlgglu's.1' Our uuo eyed engineer halted us in front of tlio only hotel In tho p'neo, nnd wo were noon discussing tho merits of n genuine mountain meal bacon, corn bread, tnolnnei and cotTeo. After battling manfully with tho crude re past, nnd succeeding after a hard struggle in downing It, tho male members of tho troupe started out to Ibid n place hi which to glvo tho entertainment. There was not u hall in tho camp, and as tho hotel dining room was used during tlio night for gambling pur poses, our every uirort to secure It proved futile. In tho upper end of tho ono long street of tho town wo discovered a log building which hnd ouco been um.iI as n general store, but which was then vacant, in tlio rear of which, raised about four feet higher than tho main store room, wns u smaller room which had evidently been built for n sleeping room for tho proprietor of tlio store. Wo saw at glance that If tlio log partition wns cut out tho smaller room would servo excellently for a stage, and by closo llguring wo concluded that MX) pvrtioiiii could bo crowded Into tho auditorium. Hunting up the owner of tho building 1 explained tho matter to him, and asked him what ho w ould charge for bin grand opera houso for ono evening, giving us tho privilege of cutting away tho partition. He was a big, rough fellow, clad Inn bluo woolen shirt and corduroy breeches, tho hitter tucked in a pair of rawludo boottf, while iirouud hU Palstalllau waist was n bolt in which an ugly looking six shooter iiuletly re posed. Kyelng tho obstructing partition u moment ho said: "As fur a charges is concarued, you hain't got no dust in yor ilnulc as 1 hanker alter, an1 us funis tho wall is concarued, ef it's liiyer way yank it down, hang it, yank It down. Anything to 'commodate. Just lopo ahead, gents, an' tix tilings m you waut 'em, nu' you won't hoar no roar from mo." Procuring n saw, wo noon cut out a stage opening, and framed In tho rudo proscenium with calico of the brighest iiiiarehlstlo hue procurable. Then, with logti and borrowed planks, tho houso was seated, our banner "Show Hero To-night" Hung to tho breeze, nnd nil was toady. When darkness set In twenty tallow caudles cast light and melted greao over the hall, and I stood nt tho door awaiting the ruslu Half-past 8 came, nnd not a soul had put in mi apiwiranco. Tho people wore dressed and weru grouped on tho stago dis cussing tho situation in language bristling with adjectives which Webster had over, looked in tho null and confusion which at tended the throw lug together ot his diction ary, while I peered out Into tho darkuo-u and lltoned for coming footstciw and wished all sorts or ill luck on tlio uunpprcclathu people. At last I heard voice away down tho street, nccoiiiKiti!cil by heavy footstep, mid toon in the darkness saw u crowd of men headed straight for tho houso, "They are coming, boys, get off tho stage," I cried, for wo did not Indulge in tho luxury of a drop curtain with our great caravan ag gregation. Tlio tiddler seized his tlmo beaten instrument and began on tho popular tun;, "Tho Days of Forty-nine," and n moment later llfteen men marched up, each paid l:h dollar and pnssed iusldo. Ten minutes later nnd no ono elso came. Going back to tho htugo I explained tho situation to tho com pauy. Oar auditors wore rough, burly, de termined looklug men, with scowling face faced that scorned to oppress mo with a strange uneasiness as tho fellows sat there silent and glum waiting for the show to begin. "fllvotheni tho best you'vo got, boys," I bald, "for it's ii tough crowd, that won't, ttand any foolishness. And, you know, wo may want to stop hero on our way back, ani u good show now may help us then." Two farces were played, n.ul I uover caw better playing in a 'Frisco theatre, but tkn audience sat unmoved. Not a smile, not rt "hand," not tho shuMoof a foot, OurelTorta seemed to have totally failed to catch them. When tho last farce wad concluded thoy sal. there, still motionless, ovlnciuguo disposition ts leave tho house, Tho ladies of tho com l.ny becamo greatly frlgutoucd.nndtuumcn telt anything but comfortable. Thinking tho ftudleuco might not know thai wo had reached tho cud of our programme I cteppji on tho sUigoaudEaid: That U all, gsnuanua. xua suow la horse feed.

What did It nil menu I The ladles were trembling with fear, their blanched faces betokening the terror which llllcd their Mills. Without another word wo started down tho long street, n portion of tho rough crowd walking In front of us, the others IhiIiIuiI. Tho truth Mashed upuu us that we were prisoners, being led to what fatal When tho ho'.cl was reached wo entered, nnd tho spkenman of the party said In a . commanding tono of voice to tho landlord! "11111, oeu up that side room nnd bring hi plenty o' tlio best you'vo got in tho house, I Fetch clgnrx, too, nn' plenty of 'em. Did you understand mo w'en I said the best tlio ' very liestr' "All right, enp'n," the landlord replied, nml in ten minutes wo wero nil seated arouiid i a table which fairly groaned beneath IU load of exhilarating moisture. Our captors re-1 iiialued witli us but a few minutes, ouly long enough to take a drink, and w hen they rose to depart tlio lender said: "It's ngln the rules an' regulations o' tills camp to return full bottles to the bar.

They strode out, mid nftcr w o had obeyed tho rules of the camp and emptied the botttct of really excellent wine, wo retired for tlm night.

Well, wo played thero for six nights to big business, and left amid many urgent requests to come back at an early date.

Mouqan. -. . .- w K1IAM Of MEnV AND IIIH MOTIinil, Of all tho great cities which ouco dotted tho fertile nectioi:j of Turklstan, but a few Krtious remain ; Uio gt eat Tin tar empire has fallen to pieces, nud lepmato sections are ruled over by their rcsjiecttvo klinns. Among these the khan of Merv Is now mi ally, 11 sort of honorary subject of tho Russians. Tlio cngrnving represents this l.hau and his mother In front of their humble summer residence. Onco this city ot Merv wnsono of the four imperial cities of tho lVrslan sul tan", and wn n place of power under tho SelJuk dynasty. Nearly n hundred years ngu It was sacked by the Uzbecks, n Tartar rhco who destroyed the remains of the old omplip, and has steadily declined till its pop nation Is but little over :,000. Turklstati Is uow only n genoral namo for tho vast tract of highland, mountain and valley, -stretching enstunrd tictwecu tho Russian dominions and Persia and India to the south, and containing 10,000, (XX) eople. Tho Russians havo already annexed the west ern part, ami will doubtlca annex and civil ize much of tho rest. ThiTr railroad Is nn enterprise much llko the construction of the Union l'ncille ncross western America, nnd ' runs through regions very much like Utah, Wyoming nud Novndn, but tlio summers nro much wanner and tho winters colder iu the valley. There is said to be vast wealth of gold and coal Iu the mountains, nnd if tho Russians succeed In their enterprises, Merv will ouco more become u place of great lin porta nee. Tho khuii Is not a despot, though his 1 ion or Is paternal, as the iiomadie habits of the ieoplo rcqulro u large degree of per sonal liberty. The Russians insiuo- tolera tion to all forms of religion, ami Mohamme dan, Uoodhlst and Shaman worship iu pence under their rulo; yet thoy aro organizing the jieoplo iu Kuropenn forms as fast as possible, and the kliau, whose picture I send with this, holds a Russian army commission. Advantages of 11 Hired (llrl. I notice that ono of our American girls who married a nobleman has gone back to her old calling ns n hired girl. Sho was a citizen of New Jersey, nnd married Hddle, tho royal pinchbeck from nero:s tho doopbluo sea. Ho sal J ho would Isistow upon her all his titles, crests and patrimonial acrai If sho would lovo him nud bo his'u. She stated that sho would. Then they went to llvo with her father for 11 spell, Eddie eating tho crenm olT the morning's milk of thrco cows, spread over Ids vesper dcwiwriieM. Now Cddlo's bro ther comes from aero'ii tho sea nnd says that he Is not noble, but boils sugar at home. Ho takes 1'ddio by tho nose nud tells mo lady thnt she had Itctter hustlo for hcrsolf. So sho has resumed the crumb brush nud two nights out each week. What an Ameri can girl wants to bo ndiichessor lady of high degree for, when she cm Ik) an American hired girl, with ten times as much power, is more than 1 can make out Aside from being n sleeping car conductor, with a haughty mien and nothing to do, I would rather beau American girl, with good wages, no board to pay nnd my now worn high, than to lo most anything I know of, A good American ser vant generally drosses about us well or better ' than her mistress, has moro to cay about most everything, even ns to whether company may or may not bo invited to tho house, has no bills to pay for anything but clothes, and actually lives a fur moro Independent llfo than lots of sad eyed women who aro trying to hold a very ticklish position in what we call society.
