' tfew Tork.--A line of bone" tnflfpins, the kind that sells for 10 cents a half dozen, marks the flrsft trail across the Andes mountains ever attempted by a white woman. Miss Katherine MacGregor of Waupaca, Wis., lost them f.om her bobbed hair every time her mule slipped on the narrow but not so straight paths along the sides of steep precipices. Miss MacGregor does not look like an Intrepid explorer. She is below middle height, of pleasing slimness, with blonde hair that curls at the rear. Her age, at a rough estimate, is somewhere between twenty-live and forty. There was no reason In the world, as she sees it, why she should take to exploring the mountain and jungles of South America. Hei father, Malcolm MacGregor, Is of Scotch-Quaker descent. She, until seven months ago, was assistant to the general manager In a New York utilities office. The only traveling she had done previously had been limited to Pullmans and coaches. ' "I guess It was because I wished to write stories of adventures mostly," Is the best explanation she can give of the Impulse that dared her to face disease, kidnaping, landslides, tigers and snakes. Even the American consul in Peru refused to have anything more to do with her when she told him of the trail she intended to follow. As for her father, he kissed her good-by once and for all when she had fully determined to start on her trip.

The chieftains have a great fondness for white women, and almost Invariably succeed In kidnaping them. It was only after much torture that the Englishmen finally convinced the chief that I was not In their party. I passed two or three days sooner than I was expected--the .only reason why they dln't get me. Once or twice, or perhaps. a few tines more, the American girl was frightened. On one occasion, had it not been for some fallen trees, she might have dropped to a dusty death along the mountain side. "It was just after a landslide, and the path--it couldn't have been even a foot wide--was slippery," she said. "The four pack mules Inarched on ahead, but my mule lost Its footing In the debris and plunged right down the side. An uprooted tree saved us. I climbed up again while the mule was hoisted up with a rope. I guess 1 roust have been pretty scared that time." Hotel accommodations were poor, as Miss MacGregor recalls them. Tambos, merely single rooms without baths, and the only running water that which leaked through the thatched roofs, offered the only shelter along the way. THtUjniore pretentions variety were sometimes stretched with cowhide, but more often a tambo consisted of four poles, with dried grass for a cover. Cooking was done over canned heat. It was imperative to boll the water, unless one wished to ward off malaria and other fevers with quinine. Miss MacGregor boasts that In all her trip she took only two grains of quinine, and that because she did not wish to offend an acquaintance. She was accompanied by an English guide hired In Peru upon the advice of friends, and by two muleteers. An Indian guide would have been out of the question, for the trip would have been brought to an untimely end, so far as she was concerned. Miss MacGregor believed. As for the technical details of her trip, she traveled to Key Weat from London.--Strange as the story of any document told In fiction is that of a will which has just been admitted to probate and is now filed in Somerset House. It is the "last will and testament" of a sailor, William Skinner, who lost his life when his ship, the Indefatigable, was sunk in the battle of Jutland. It is In the form of the ordinary Identification disk. On one side. In the usual deeply punched letters, appears the name, number, rating and religion of the man to whom it had been Issued. On the other side the disk ai>- pears at first sight to be Just a> circular piece of smooth, polished brass. But when viewed at a certain angle there can be seen about 75 minutely engraved words. With a microscope they can be plainly read. They constitute Skinner's will by which he bequeaths everything to his wife. The disk had been recovered from the sea with Skinner's body and on being cleaned revealed Its secret. Saves Need Buying a New Skirt Putnam Fadeless Dyes--dyes or tints as you wish LOOK OLD?

Her party cut Its own trails through heavy, tangled growths for the most part There were conquests not only of wild animals, but of South American gentlemen, but Miss MacGregor paid no attention to the proposals she received. for, she said, the fair American who could pass through the country without having a marriage thrust upon her was" mqrt. to be commenflgd than she who landed a mate.

GOLDEN CROSS SHINES ONCE MORE Throngs Worship in Belief That Miracle Has Been Wrought •eviet Lsadsra Fereo Priests of ae*- afr Cathedral to Say That Gilding «n Church Was Due to Wireless Action. isyAM --An interesting tale comas to me from the city of Kostolf on the Don, In soviet Russia, writes a correspondent to the Dally Telegraph. It will need some explaining on the port of our men of science, and .1 would not- have mentioned It If the official soviet press had not done so. 6ne morning citizens going at sunrise to attend early divine service in the great cathedral were surprised to see the cross on the cathedral dome sparkling as if it had been newly gilt The golden Crosses and cupolas of the Russian churches are a well knowp laadmaifc Set; aagiected and* tha Bolshevik regime, they have all become dull and tarnished. The great cross on the cathedral blazed, while the crosses on the small cupolas surrounding It remained dark. The people cried that a miracle had occurred. From all parts of the town crowds precipitated themselves toward the market place. Very soon the cathedrni was full to cTsrflvwiuB, and tuouawMla of wax candles before the Icons lit ap Its dark Interior. People continued to arrive, filling up the market place.

The Red soldiers came forward to disperse the- faithful, but they were overwhelmed and forced to take off their caps and make the sign of the croak. Cavalry arrived and re-established order with their heavy whips. The clergy of the cathedral were arrested, brought into the Chpka building and. oader menace.<£ #aat*t a*. dered to stop the "miracle" immediately. This the poor fellows naturally could not do. At last one of them had a brilliant idea, of which the leaders of the Cheka approved. The town wrs placarded with large notices explaining to the population that the gliding of the cross had been renovated by the action of the new high-powered wireless station just Installed. Tha fact of the renewal of the cross Is confirmed from several sources, hut one doubts if the explanation of Its wireiesa source Is the correct one. Heart on Right 8ids. Phoenix.

Moae was trying to sell Saunho a mule. The mule was lying on4lie floor of the barn. "I doan' wan no daid mule," said Sambo. "He ain't daid," said Mose; and with his whip he forced the mule to a standing posture. But Sambo remained cold on the proposition. "Ah see he ain't daid," said Sambo. "But he kain't run, an' Ah done wants a mule as runs." Mose, thus challenged, with a vigorous kick so ehergfeed the mule that away it went, running down the street, with marvelous speed. But Sam's delight at the activity of the mule was short-lived, for bang, the mule ran head-on Into a tree. "Fo'^de lord," exclaimed Sam, "he ain't daid; he kin run, but he's blind. Ah, doan' wan no blind mule." "What's dat jou say?" cried Mose. "You all calls a mule like dat blind? Why, lordy, lordy. boy, dat muie ain't blind. He Jea doan' give a whoop 1" --Judge.

He had only $5 in his pocket, and $b does not go far in the Giltmore Grill. It requires close figuring to get a square meal out of such an insignificant sum and still have enough left for the waiter's tip. It may seem strange that a man so poorly supplied with cash should select such a place to dine, but this was a special occasion. It was to be Ot: den Carter's farewell to life. As ao«m as It was finished he Intended to wsfk down to the river and end it all. He I had learned that day that he was a ruined man. The $5 bill In his pocket was the last remnant of his fortune. There was nothing left to live for. Ignoring the waiter's recommendations of the more expensive viands. Carter ordered a dinner which came to exactly $4.50. That would leave 50 cents for the waiter; not so much as that worthy would expect, it is true, but still enough. As Carter - as never coming there again, it would not matter If the waiter was disgruntled. His frugal repast at an end, Carter laid the $5 bill on the waiter's tray and sauntered toward the coatroom to get his hat and stick. As he approached the spot he felt mechanically in his pocket for the accustomed coin. With a start he realised that in calculating the amount which he could spend for his last dinner on earth he had forgotten this Important item. Hurrying past the coatroom he went Into the hotel lobby and sat down to think. There must be some way out of this frightful dilemma. He searched his pockets again--not so much" as a penny--and he needed a dime at the very least. To demand his hat and stick and then go away wlNiout tipping the attendant was unthinkable. To go out on the street without them was equally impossible. And so he sat there and thought and thought and thought.
