Mrs. Wilder was one of our oldest pioneers of this localitv. After the deathâ€" of this locality. After the death of 1 her husband, W'm. Wilder ofi Wilder’s Lake, some few years: ago‘, Mrs. Wilder moved west to Alpena, Mich. with :her two sons. Alexander. Simon, and Simon’s wife, .nee Maria 'Wilson of this 10â€" cality. where they took up land and settled among the rest of the family who had formerly setâ€" tled there. . But sorrow did not come singleâ€"handed to the fam- ily. About the time of the moth- er’s death, Simon was killed by a jam of logs with which he had been working. We extend our sincere sympathy to the mourners of the mother, husband and brother. Tapping has commenced. We expect there will be quite a lot of syrup made this year. Mr. W. Ramage of course Will make a little more extensively, as he has a fine evaporator. Wood bees and Wood cutting are quite common at present. Quite a number of farmers in this locality are getting their ‘WOOd cut by Mr. J. G. Johnston of the 18th conces- sio'n. He has a new buzz-saw, driven by a fine gasoline engine. Miss Mary and Mr. John Hamil- to<n have returned home from a visit with friends in Chesley. Somebody was awaiting anxiously for their return. Mr. Arthur Lawrence had a very successful wood bee last Week, and in the evening the young’ folks of these parts spent a pleasant time in dancing and music. Mr. J. Losn-g also gave them a few fine songs, which were much appreciated.

A couple of men standing at the bar noticed him and heard him ask the landlord for writing materials. These he took to a table and sat down to write a letter. "Do you know what’s the matter with him ?" asked one of his observers. “No. 1 don’t”, “He’s. struck a bonanza. There‘s nothin' else in this here country to affect a man like that. I've seen men in that fix before and know the symp- toms." ”Well?" “Well. I think there's somepin in it torus." “How?" “We can keep an eye on him. see where his claim is located and jump it." a. At that moment one of the conspira- tors noticed a man reading a newspa- per by a window and put his finger on his lip. The two emptied their glasses and went out. As soon as they had done so the man reading the newspa- per arose and. going to Hartwell. said: “My friend. 1 overheard those two men talking about you. and I wish to warn you." Then he told Hartwell what he had heard. Hartwell appear- ed to be very much afiected by the in- formation. He thanked-the stranger. but said nothing about the truth or falsity of the conspirators’ surmise. “_.w .â€" The date carved on the rock would come around in two weeks and Mabel resolved to wait and look through the drilled hole on the day mentioned. She did not need to look through it. for on that day the sun sent lts light through it. making a spot on the ground some thirty feet dlctnnt. Mabel. hopeful. . marked the quot. yen: away and. hav- __ALL Hantwell had struck a rich vein of ore and was writing to his daughter, Mabel. in the east to announce the fact. One day Hartwell was found dead near the hole he was pretending to work. Not long after his death two men laid claim to the place where he was supposed to be digging. but. find» ing nothing, they soon abandoned it. Mabel Hartwell had been posted by her father as to his fears of losing his property. and he had given her some idea as to the location. But the exact spot was unknown to her her father not daring to state it. fearing that his letter miszht be interrupted. As soon as she had been informed of her father's death she determined to go west with a view to claiming his mine. When she reached the scene of her father’s efforts she first made inquiries for the conspirators. but they had left and no one knew. where they had gone. Mabel had the good sense to realize that it would be difficult to find and punish them, and even if she did it would not bring her father back to life. She knew that he had been very desirous that she should have the property he had discovered and set about to find it. Alone she visited the location that he had given her. She found it in a canyon shut in on either side by high mountains. There was a house at the mouth of the canyon where she ob- tained lodgings and set out to try to discover the mine, But she had little hope for, knowing that her fa- ther had been watt-.hed she inferred that he would not mark it Vevertheâ€" less. not long before his death Hart- well had written her that he was trying to find some mark by which in case anything should happen to him he might show her and her alone the exact spot under which lay the rich vein of ore he had discovered. for he had obliterated all trace of his mine. Mabel hOped that her father had hit upon some mark that only she would understand, but had been stopped from communicating it to her by his sudden taking away. Her experience had made her suspicious of every one. and she dare not take any person With her. Fortunately it was summer. and the weather was fine. She made daily searches in the canyon. which. though but a mile in length. was very rugged and hard to get over. One day she came to a rock on which she was much astonished to find her own name. “Mabel." carved in rude letters. Beneath was an arrow and beneath the arrow a dateâ€"July 15. There was no year given. only the month and day of the month. Nat- urally Mabel turned her glance in the direction the arrow pointed. The first obje‘: in line was a perpendicular rock. very thin, its outline being like a sugar loaf. Indeed. one side of it was anedge like an ax. some parts of which were not over a foot thick. Mabel fell to thinking on the prob- lem. The arrow appeared to be in- tended to direct her attention to the thin side of the rock. which was di- rectly in line with it. What did the date mean? The day Mabel found the sign was the 20th of June. Her fa- ther had been dead nearly a year. hav- ing been murdered 'on -the lst’h of July. three days after the carved date. Mabel examined the thin rock careful- ly and found that a hole half an inch in diameter had been drilled through its thinnest part. Mabel at once infer- red that this hole had something to do 'with the date inscribed with the arrow and her .name. By EDITH V.
