Finding the Gold Queen, By JAMES SELWIN TAIT,
[Copyright, 189", by the Author.] Douglas Guskeli, uged 80, native of Scotland and mining expert by profes- tion, thought himself in very bard luck indeed when, for the first time in his life, he seated himself in a fashionable New York restaurant. He was
ing from an attack of the blues, v 1 not evan the hum of cheerful, ective life around him could overconse, alt gh he had fled to that throbbing « r of &uY postprandial life to escay the gl i of his own thouc! ind the bit ter reflections which gnawed at hig lcart. And as he reviewed the situation under the soothing influences of hig Cigar and his ¥ he reassured him-
self that he had most excellent grounds for repining, if not indeed for despair- ing altogether.
Glancing backward a few months, he saw himself returning to his native land after many long years of self de- nial and hardship in the mining dis- tricts of India and South Africa, with eufeebled health, a few hundred pounds, a good reputation for honesty in a busi- ness of some temptations and a ripe ex- perience in mining mutters.
Then in his retrospect amid the hum of cheerful humanity around him he saw the fairest face in Scotland smiling on him, be saw an obdurate old Scotch laird who utterly refused to let his Gaughter be engaged to a ‘‘penniless mining fellow,*’ and after a long siege by soft, persistent womanhood’s irre- sistible arms, he saw the grim old bor- derer yield so far as to say that if he, Gaskell, could satisfy him before he started for Norway in July that he had means to maintain his daughter snit- ably be would then bo willing to con-
sider the propriety of an engagement on |
the clear, mutual understanding, how- ever, that Gaskell must sheer off for good if he was unable to satisfy the old man within the three months which he allowed him.
This had been a most despairing de- cision to the mining expert, who term- ed it the offer of ‘‘a 90 day option on the woman I love, with impossible con- ditions, and the wreck of two lives as a forfeit."’ But Madge, the lady of his heart’s affections, had declared every-
thing was possible of aokievement to .
true leve, and jis stern face softened ag he recalled the bright, hopeful, loyal look with which she had Gispatched him to London to take counsel with her uncle, her dead mother’s favorite brother.
He remembered how the obtained hima commission an American gold mine asa step to- ward finding on his own account, while in the miuing districts of the United States, 1 property euitable for

THE BANNER OF DEATH.
G A man cannot strac od the fence when it conies o the question of good health or ill-health } > Either he marches un \ der the flag of health or
' the banner of death. It is the simplest thing in the world to gain and keep health, if men and women on! will. For that reason it is almost incredi- ble that men and women will continue t neglect their health even after they must realize that they are marching under the banner of death.
“he rreat maj diseases have their inception in indigestion, biliousness and impure biood. Among these diseases are deadly consumption, nerve-racking, brain- wreek rvous prostration and exhaus- tion, bociy-torturing rheumatism, insanity- breeding neuralgia, emaciating malaria and all manner of disfiguring blood and skin diseases. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Dis-
rity of

taken in anything like reasonable time. It is not a cure-all, but cures the diseases men- tioned for the reason that they are caused afid aggravated by the same di! makes the appetite keen, the digestion per- fect, the liver active, the blood pure and builds firm flesh and healthy nerve fiber. Don’t be wheedled by a penny-grabbing dealer into taking samething else.
‘Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical py! cured me of a severe case of poisoning of the blood,” writes Mrs. Selia Ricca, of Coast, Santa Cruz Co., Cal. ‘ Boils, one after another, would break out on my arms, and were very painful. I have tried the loudly praised sarsaparillas without any benefit whatever, and not until I took the , Discovery’ did I get well. That was two years ago, and I have not had a boil or sore of any sind sitice.’’

Aa oe A MING.
ocean to Introduce him to t! propri- etors had taken his measuro a urately during the voyage and had reported to his colleagues and joint own: rs that he Was quite satisfied that Gaskell could
not be tampered with, but would insist upon making a thorough examination, such as must inevitably disclose the worthlessness of the property. The own- ers were simply a gang of unscrupulous adventurers, who had thought to avail themselves of the existing craze for American mining properties.
{t was the announcement of the with- drawal of the property that had plunged Douglas Gaskell into the depths of de- spondency in which this narrative finds him.
As his retrospection ended he sat lost in thought and barely conscious of the ebb and flow of the city’s gilded youth and the men of affairs who throng Del- monico’s in ever increasing numbers.
He was all unconsciously being very closely observed by three gentlemen seated at a distant table—Mr, Oswald, who had accompanied him across from England; Hector Marble and Hami!ton Gilbey, all *‘speculators,’’ in other peo- ple’s money. They were, in fact, tke owners of the withdrawn mine.
Mr. Gilbey broke the silence at their able. ‘It is just as easy to makea large haul as a small one,’’ he said. ‘*We must manage to fix something up for this Scotch expert who is sitting over there looking so glum. He is dis- appointed at our withdrawal of that mine, and is, I imagine, ready for a fresh suggestion. Now, I have been casting about for something to suit him, and I think I have discovered it at last.”’
The three drew their chairs closer to- gether than strictly honest men found it necessary to do in Delmonico’s, and the champagne in their glasses grew flat and their cigars went out while the one expounded and the two received and up- proved one of the choicest plans which villainy ever concocted in connection with international syndicate or corpo- rate business,
The proposition laid by Mr. Gilbey before his colleagues with much graphic force and a wealth of luminous illustra- tion began with the preamble—they must have money. The Scotchman sit- ting near by suggested a means of get- ting it. He was only useful in connec- tion with mines; he could not be fooled astathe quality of a mine; therefore he must be fooled in some other way, as they could not promptly get the con-
trol of any honest mine on terms which would be accep‘able to the syndicate and profitable to them. That was the argument, and it was considered as be- ing tothe point. The proposition was as follows: Gilbey knew of a mine called the Gold Queen in California which had at one time embraceda great number of clainis and covered a consid- erable extent of territory. This mine became quite a valuable property, and a dispute baying arisen as to the owner- ship of one-half of it the property Was finally divided between the two litigants by decision of the court of appeals. Both properties retained the title of tiold Queen, and openings had been made in both, about 700 yards apart. The workings in one had proved enor- mously successful, and that mine could
| not be purchased. The other had result-
ed in failure, and very little, if any, la- bor was now being expended on it.
Mri. Gilbey’s suggestion was that the Gold Queen mine, which had proved a failure, should be optioned to the Eng- lish syndicate, and that while its sur- vey should be correctly given on the op-
| tion steps should be taken to get Mr.
' Gaskell to examine the gold mine, un-
———— cae o-
der the belief that he was inspecting the one optioned to his syndicate. ‘‘ Al- though you can’t deceive him as to the existence of paying ore in 2 mine,’’ con- tinued Gilbey, ‘‘you can readily confuse him as to the identity of the property he is examining, more especially if he is simply a mineralogist and not a sur- veyor as well.’’
‘“‘I know the manager of the Goid Queen now in operation—No. 1, let us
| call it—and I can guarantee that he

iteald Sense Medical Adviser | Pierce’s Common Sen e ‘hope this businese won’t land us in
| will see this business through if we di-
vide with him. No. 1 is known to be well worth a large sum of money, and it won’t do for us to offer the property at less than half a million. The owner of the latter is willing to give mea four months’ option on it at $15,000.’’
Their plans being matured, the illus- tricus pair were presently introduced to Mr. Gaskell as the owners of the mine which had been withdrawn. They had exerted themselves to find him a prop- erty of equal promise, and had at last after much trouble succeeded in obtain- ing for him an option on the Gold Queen.
Mr. Gaskell had notified Madge’s uncle of his first disappointnient by ca- ble, and. two hours after meeting Gil- bey’s partners he walked across Madi- son square and sent another cablegram intimating that he had heard of an- other property and was about to go west to examine it at his own expense.
Two days later Mr. Gaskell left for San Francisco, where on his arrival he met the manager of the Gold Queen, No. 1, who had received a telegram from Mr. Gilbey to go to San Francisco to receive an important letter, which letter he had carefully read and very cordially approved.
The days which followed had many anxious moments for the three specula- tors in New York. ‘‘I do most devoutly
state prison,’’ murmured the less cour- ageous Marble. ‘What nonsense! We have not made
other !
any ix ing.’’
‘‘True, but you forget your letter to the manager of the miae. Won't that show conspiracy?’’
“That is all right,’’ was Gilbey’s airy rejoinder. ‘‘The manager is under my thumb.
‘‘By the way,’’ continued the tranquil Gilbey, ‘‘did you notice that Gaskell

“I know the manager of the Gold Queen.” had the 90 days’ option which yeu gave him made out to himself personally and not as representing the syndicate?’
