WOMANS CAPACITY FOR BLUNDER A Binnrt Southern Girl -A VAC for tlio Detective Cnnicrn AVhnt to Wcnr Iti July Severe . Simplicity Ktilcn For tlio Slio Hells Idon-Ho Arlitto. An Ingenious girl 1ms lilt upon an In genious method of self-support , stvys the Now York Mall nnd Express. Some tlmo ngo she * 'ns bitten by the mnatour photogrnphlc mania nnd bccamo an adept at catching picturesque views. With ono of these clever little dctoctlvo cameras she amused herself wlicnovcr her fancy led her about the 'lty picking up hero an old apple womai. with skirts Muttering and capo bonnet blown back by an unkindly brcozo , there a ragged news girl with her bundle of pa pers , yonder a group of babies tumbling on the grass in the park nndsomowhorc else an Italian woman with a huge bag of.stalo crusts balanced on her head , full of artistic possibilities. The girl bad bomothing of an artistic temper ament , and though she could neither paint nor draw , she had an eye for the essential features of a picture and for what would or would not compose - pose well. Many of her photographs were really pictures , and being caught instantaneously preserved all the spirit , action and freshness of life. An artist friend saw them ono day , and to her surprise offered to buy a half dozen of the best for suggestions for studio work. Two or thrco days' dwelling upon Iho idea thus given her bore fruit. She was in want of nionoy , and resolved to turn what had been play into work. She and her camera arc out every sunny day , from 10 o'clock until 3 nowadays , and an hour in the "dark room" of an evening brings out some of the characteristic SCOIICH of city lifo tr.insforreil to her negative's and ready to bo transformed into cash. Her work lias nuitc a vogue among the studios , and clover suggestions are often taken from it. She linds her best market for liguro pieces. An attitude , a smile , an expression often serves as a revelation of home queer phase of hum anity , and supplies the missing bomo- whnt that somebody wanted to incor porate into a picture. Sonjetimos an artist gives her a commission , naming the subject he is at work upon and ask ing her to bring in all the hints upon It that she can Hiul. This ts the WclMJrcil Girl. She never accepts it valuable present from a gentleman acquaintance unless engaged to him. She never turns round to look after any ono wlinn walking on the street. She never takes supper or re fresh man ts ata restaurant with a gentleman after attending the theat.to unlcbs ac companied by a lady much older than herself. She docs not permit gentlemen to join her on the street unless they are very intimate acquaintances. She does. not wear her monogram about her person or stick it over her letters and envelopes. She never accepts a seat from a gentleman in a street car without thanking him. She never forgets her ball room en gagements and refuses to dance with one gentleman and immediately dances with another. She never snubs other young Indies , even if they happen to bo less popular or well favored than herself. She never laughs or talks loudly at public placid. ' She never wears olothing so singular or htrikitig as to attract particular at tention in public. She never ttpoaks slightingly of her mother , and says bho ' 'don't cure whether her behavior moots with ma ternal approbation or not. " But Still \Vo fjovcTlicm. "Commend mo to a woman for mak ing blunders , " said a well-known Wall btrcot man to a Now York Sun reporter this morning. About noon yoblordav I bout a telegram to my wife in Brooklyn in which 1 said : ' 'Moot mo at Wall sti'oet ferry at n , " my intention being to take her to eoo a game of base ball tit the Polo grounds. 1 was on time , but could see nothing of my wife. I waited until two boats arrived , nnd then the thought suddenly struck mo thnt she might bo over at the Brooklyn side , ho I took the 3:20 : p. in. boat ovor. Arrived tbore no wife. I spent ton minutes darning my luck and then naked the man who closes the gate if ho had boon a lady waiting for somo. Of eourno ho had. She wailed about half an hour and then took the . ' 1:20 : boat for New York just the time I left. There was nothing to do but go back. 1 took the ! ! : 10 boat and blood outside to cool oil. In mid strmim wo passed the other boat , and I'll bo blown if there wasn't my wife going back to Brooklyn. Slut saw mo , and I shouted 'Como back , ' but she evidently did not henrfor when her boat returned bho wasn't oil it. "Then 1 was mad. Leaving word with the gutomun to detain my wife if she appeared to arrest her if necessary I caught the four o'clock boat back to Brooklyn. Again in the stroain I caw Mrs. U'a rod p.trasol on the other l < ont. I biting back out of sight. 1 didn't want her to follow mo again. At just 4:1K : I got buck to Now York and fou ml the lady there , and not in tears ; ia loxpcctcd , but in a lit of laughter at my stupidity , as she called it , fur bonding 'such an indoli- nito mcbsago. ' Of couroo we inibsod the game. " . _ A Smart Southern Girl. Now Orleans Picayune : MissMnttio McGrath , of Baton Uougo. is an actual , practical job printer.

Cassoll's Family Mitjrnzlno ; With the month of roses comes the fruition of most of the well-laid plans for fashiona ble dressing , which have occupied the minds of fashion cutorors for so long. Severe simplicity is one of the charac teristics of the moment n simplicity which demands most careful attention to details , perfect tit as to the bodice , and .a well-hung skirt , The foundation of an ordinary morning blurt is us fol- lowsJ The material may bo n , good , strong , twilled , glnxcd lining , black , white , grey or brown ; sateen , alpaca or poplin cord , nnd , for the most expensive class of gowns , silk ; but bo sure to cheese a good wearing inako , not ono Llmt will rub into holes or strip up Into ribbons , as so many sold ns foundation silks will do. They nr-s dear at nny price , anil have to bo too soon replaced. The back should bo n straight piece thirty-three inches broad ; a gore is placed on cither ? idc , seventeen inches at the base , taperIng - Ing to six inches , while the front is Lwcnty-nlno Inches , tapering to cloven Inches. This , however , is not all cutoff the sides ; a pleat is made six inches otig , two and ono-half Inches from the centre on each side , nnd when stitched Is cut away. I have not given the length of the skirt , as it dinars' according to the height of the wearer. Two steels should bo placed nt the l > ack , the top ono twonty-ono Inches long , six Inches from the waist In the centre , not put In staaight , but bowed , so that the side is cloven inches from ; he waist at each ond. Tlio second steel is live inches below the llrst , and goes in straight , and is eighteen inchcslong. Tlie rcdingoto continue" to bo greatly in favor , but the skirts boneat.h nro wider and nro sot in very full at thu and at the back in largo folds. Cotton gownsnro being much made with 'ull plain skirts without drapery , tno joiliees with plastrons or fulled backs and fronts , lied cottons promise to bo almost as universally worn as were pink ones f-omo two or three years back. In all kinds of materials it would scout to bo the fashion to fasten the drapery ever the buck of tlio bodlco ; the eng skirt bodices being buttoned down > crpendiculurly , and mooting tlio bodlco juttons , which como diagonally. Stripes are treated to form trimmings. For ex ample , a striped vest and side panel to natch , is cut on the cross , so that , moot ing in the center scam , the stripes form a succession of angles. Braiding is universal , as well as fabrics woven to resemble braiding. Braided waist coats , changeable and most various' , arc undo in sols to introduce into many tailor gowns. Smocking is finding great favor , nnd Is notconlined , as it once was , to the tow who dressed in : utlietic stylos. A great many cotton gowns have smocked yokes nnd full sleeves , smocked below the shoulders and at the wrists. Among the latebt novelties in stuffs arc the silk and wool spot crape cloth , which has intorwnvon stripes with double tines of silk forming a shot in- terthrcaded at intervals ; the "laino ot oio , " . with n white silk line check thrown on cream woollen ground ; wool diagonal , and soutache mohair , made of a lirm , wiry thread. These tire trimmed with ancient silk nnd wool guipure , in which white , and cream , and sometimes beige , arc blended and with all wool , cobweb Inco is used. It is small and line us its name implies , und washes well. well.Many of the hats and bonnets are made of the washing llama cotton , which is ns lino-woven as cotton , and of garni a washing ribbon which has been vastly improved upon , and has this great merit in the eyes of nurses and mothers : it improves with washing. It can bo had in all widths , from the quarter-inch to seven inches. Most picturesque arc the shapes of hand and bonnets for children , and at the same time utilitarian , There are soft , com fortable hoods , with the caps of the old-fashioned spotted nets beneath , and loops of garni , for now it would scorn that wo arc falling back entirely on our great-grandmothers' and grandmothers , fashions , and finding perfection in nothing olso. Tlio coal-scuttlo bonnet hits 'replaced the granny for children , and a washing college cap , made in thick linen , of the German student shape , with an octagon crown , may ho frequently introduced to tlio wnbh-tub without being unpicked. The Friend or Quaker bonnet , mtulo of cambric and garni , is most becoming in its sedate primnobs. The East End workers have developed u snuchvl talent for the old cowboy smacking of llfty years ago , and Iho fine clastic tucking used Ihuii. All the little frocks show signs of one or the oilier.

Special Correspondence of 1 IIK BKK. ] [ f you have a little knowledge of the Spanish Inngmigo yon can translate 'Canyon del Aqua" into English and invo "Water Canon. " Away back in 'ourtoon hundred nnd bomo odd old 2oroando and his gang of swash buckers - ers marched up from the south land. .Then , as now , water wns water In this country. They could llnd canons , any amount of them , but canons with water .n them were few and far between. Up icar the head of the canon numerous ivlng springs gush forth that furnish , ho water for it lovely stream almost lown to the mouth nil the year round. A Spaniard always names a mountain or other natural object in honor of the llrst thing bo BOOS thereabouts. As this particular band of Castllians , who were jut on an expedition of cross planting 'or the public and n murdering tour on private account , had probably seen no water for three or four days , they wcro loubtless glad to soak tholr parched tongues and call the place "Canyon del Aqua. " As I sit hero the picture spread jcforo mo is as beautiful as nn afte < - loon dream. There is no finer climate .n all the world. The an nual variation of temperature .a less than seventy degrees. On tlio 25th day of February T sat in front ol a minor's cabin hero. Tlio thermometer Indicated 680 above zero in the shade. Away to the southwest loomed the un covered crown of old Qaldy on whoso glistening sides lav the white snow many feet in depth. A mile away across the gulch to the southwest rose : i wall of brown stone six or seven miles long and an eighth of a milo high. On the grassy slopes between myself and the clilTs hundreds of grazing cattle could bo soon. Altogether the sce-io was ono of beauty and promise seldom excelled , beauty for the eye of the artibt and promise for the liopo of the ranchman. Whatever may become of the mines hereabouts there Is wealth for the owners of herds and of llouks. "Mon yana" ' I do not know whether I spell the'word correctly or not but I spell as it is pronounced means to-morrow. This is truly the land of to-morrow. Hero no ono hur ries. Try' ' to got any thing done by a Mexican and provided ho will do it at all his ahswdr is al ways "Mon yana. " And why should they hurry ? Their wants ar6 few and ouaily supplied. They are the happiest mortals on earth. The Americans who como bore soon pot into their ways , and they , too , refuse to do anything to-day that can possibly be put oft until to-morrow. The Mngda- tona mountains lie oil' to the west of the Rio Grande river some thirty milcsand about two hundred miles north of the northern line of Old Mexico. There is no range of 'mountains in the world in which mineral is more nuundant. The mineral , however , is low grade. By low grade I moan ore worth less than $100 lo the ton. It is extremely dillicult to convince monied men that the most profitable inincbare tholow grade ones and yet such is the fact. When one considers the immense orp bodies thataro found hero it is surprising that a greater number of working mines are not seen. Mining operations were carried _ on hero in this canon as much as thirty years ago. There are indications that toll mo that oven longer ago than that white men were hero pounding up the quart/ rock and washing out the yellow gold. Climbing up the mountain side ono day I found a blacksmith's anvil lying bo- bider a rotten stump. A little search rovqaled the ruins of a log cabin. All my quasi among the oldest settlers in tlio camp failed to got any history of the man who in the years gone by had buildcd that cabin and carried that anvil up the mountain. Men who have been hero twenty. live years never heard of him. Thcbo mountains have always , until the past year or two , boon the range of a band ot Indians in the territory , Here it was that old Nairn used to leave his yearly trail of desolation and death. Whbn ho dually got his infernal old cut-throat Goronimo took up the toma hawk and knife and kept the trail bloody. With an armed party of ton I rode through this country to the Black range in 1882. Wo picked up lliirly- llvo bodies that had boon murdered. Wo rode at night and kept the rocks and brush in the day time. When I was a good many years younger I used to hear a whole lot of bosh about the bravery of the Indian. They are & cowardly lot of murderers and' nothing less. Nobody over hoard of a gang of cut-throats attacking a party where the odds , numbers or chances were even. They won't fight at night unless you bitrpriso them In their camp. Jubt ever the range , three or four miles from where I write , there are two considerable mining eampi , Magda- lonn and Kelly , and a number of paying ininos nro being wovUcd. There Is a peculiar fascination for me in anything connected with mines or mining. .It is a toilsome and dangerous work to got the ere out of the ground. How , day after day and night after night , the miners drill nnd blast has often boon told. How much mineral do they get out of a mine1 ; Sometimes they got moro ; a good many times they got loss. In the Mngdalonn , mountains the best producer bus been the Kelly , followed by the Graphic as n good second in the rnco. The history of the ICelly mine not very different from that of man another mining location. In 13SO n vein of minornl was discovered by old .Urn Kelly. Ho located it and named It the Kelly mine. From the valuoof tbcmino to-day one would imagine that ho ought to have mtulo something out of It. Ho did. Ho made two jackasses' of it , or rather I should say thrco of them , two four-legged ones and ono two-logged ono himself. Ho traded the claim for two pack jacks , estimated to bo worth $10 , actually worth about $10. If the picture of two mule heads tinder scored "When shall wo thrco moot again ? " wns not painted especially for ,11m Kol- ly'sconsideration then lam mistaken. But to go on with the history of the Kelly mine : Jim Vendee got 3140 for It and immediately went out behind the cabin nnd patted himself on the rise be tween his two ears and said , "great head. " Then ho wont down to Socorro and filled his hide full of gin nnd the town full ot yells. Since that t'.mo ho has boon heard to express the wish that some day his feet , which now point to the north , will got twisted around to the south , so thnt bo can fill the broadest part of himself full of bruises , because ho did not have sense enough to keep a good thing. The man to whom ho sold had but & ! 0 moro brains , for ho in turn sold for $170. The next purchasei-bold the mine to Gustavo Billings of Cincinnati for $42,000. Mr. Billings built a smelter at Socorro to treat the ore. The Santa Fo Itailroad company built a branch road to the mine , and binco Mr. Billings has owned the proportv bo has taken something ever thrco hundred and ninety thou sand tons of ore from it , of an average value of about $45 per ton. Within the last six months ho has refused nn olTor of $8,000,000. But after all it matters little in most ensos whether a prospector gets ? 30 or $50,000 for his claim. "Uncle John" has prospected in Australia , Africa and in fact almost every whoro. Ho hits bad a dozen fortunes and Ifas dissipated them nil. "Just lot mo strike it again " and I'll save it"said "Undo John.1"Ho did strike it ever in Cat mountain. Ho sold for 810.000. Ho wont down to town on Monday morning. The next Sunday he returned without a cent. "Whore is your money ? " asked the boys. "In the bank. " "What bank ? " "Faro bank. " That's the story. Nine times in ton "striking it" is a cur.se to the miner. There are some odd characters here abouts. Over in South Canon , which is entirely inaccessible except through the upper end or head of this canon , lives Charley Gay. Ho has been prospecting there for seven years. What lie has found no ono knows , for the man who would attempt to explore ono of his shafts or tunnels would as certianly bo shot as seen by Gay. Ho imagines that all the world lias formed a loatruo to steal his claims from him. In Six Milo Gulch not another soul in the gulch is another hermit , Judge Sillunan. Atone ono time ho was president ot it national bank back in the states. It is supposed that friends there send him money to buy provisions. What he has found iu the way of metal no ono knows , not even himself. II. W. Xeigler completes the trio. Ho is at the bond of the canon and has been there for eleven years. Unaided bo has drilled a tunnel four hundred and ninety feet through bolid rock. Not an ouncoof mineral in sight and never has been. How's that for faith and perseverance ? IIo bays that ho will strike five tisburo veins before ho gets through the mountain. Long before he gets his hole through the mountain the mountain will furnibh him a hole for an eternal abiding place. Whether or not Now Mexico is ad mitted as a state is a matter of no concern - corn to mo. Mv honest conviction is that her people are much boiler olT as they now are than they would bo under a stale government. But there is one thing that every decent man ought to do whenever and wherever ho gets op portunity , and that is to refute the vile slander that has been printed and cir culated concerning the native popula tion. No odds if the slander docs como from the national congress it is no less unlruo. The man who baid that the Mex icans were M rnco of "blanketed hor.sothiovcs nnd hooded harlots" was n willing liar or an unwilling fool. I know the Mexicans and dare assort that for honesty and virtue they will com pare favorably with any other iwople. Tlio gentleman who goes among them will receive kindly and courteous treat ment. The loafer who presumes upon tholr goodliest * and attempts to corrupt their homos and debauch their women , will probably got what lie deserves a blit in his vile care-ass. Their houses are made of faundricd bricks and the Iloors uro dirt , but the doors are sprinkled and swept as many limes a day as Httor can bo scon thereon. As regularly as the Monday morning comes the family washing can bo boon out to dry back of every dobo house. I have found them faithful , gonoronyand lei nil. The man who Iroals them fairly will not have their tritbt betrayed. Omaha is bollor known hero then almost any other city back in the states und it is a fact thai Iho newspaper ono mosl frequently hears mentioned is Tnn OMAHA linn. "You nro from Omaha , are you ? I know BO and so in that city ; why , wo got Tin : BIK. : " I have hoard that remark many times. Omaha people como hero too , Somo'of thorn come to stay. Dan Bliss lives hero lit ono of the co/.lcst little cabins imaginable. In 180-5 ho wns In Omaha and had IIvo thovsand big iron dollars in his wallet. Mr. Yntos , who Is now the president of your Nebraska National bank , was his friend and tried to get him to in vest in Omaha , but Dan wanted to go west and ho went. Dan hasn't the live thousand now , but he 1ms a faithful llttlo wife and two lovely girls nnd n liouso full ot hap piness. Perhaps if ho had stopjfed in Omaha ho would n6w bo worth a million and lying awake nights devising means to got more. As It Is , his "grub pile" Is always In good shape and lie never knows a cnrc. Hon. .T. 12. Riley , of your city , was hero In February , to look at some min ing claims. Down hero in the canyon the trees were in loaf nnd the green grass growing , but up in the mount ain , where the leads were stunted , there wns from two to five foot of snow. Hlloy faced the HIIOW like a mountaineer , however - ever , and made the six mile tramp in good shape. Ho is not a feather weight and the boys say the trip made him puff. I do not know whether ho in vested or not. Mosu M. Biyuu. The American Sundiiy school union organ ized lastycnr Rtti schools , with 0,82 ! ) leach * era and 54,129 scholars.
