Ancient Mine Workings. A discovery o( considerable archeologtcnl interest has been made 30 miles north of the Leokpoort tin mines in the Transvuul, near the Bechuanaland border. A pn»«pector has unearthed what is apparently a pt-rtlon of an ancient Muelting plant and a quantity of slag, which is being submitted to expert examination. Nearby were old workings and a substantial body of ore containing a whitish metal, thought to be platinum or molybdenum. Mining engineers have left for the scene of the discovery.

ERSKINE DALE-PIONEER

COUSIN BARBARA SYNOPSIS.—To the Kentucky wilderness outpost commanded by Jerome Swaders, tn the time Immediately preceding the Revolution, comes a white boy fleeing from a tribe of Shawnees by whom he had been captuYed and adopted as a son of the chief. Kahtoo. He is given shelter and attracts the favorable attention of Dave Yandell. a leader among the settlers. The boy warns his new friends of the coming of a Shawnee war party. The ton is attacked, and only saved by ths timely appearance of a party es Virginians. The leader of these Is fatally wounded, but in his dying momenta recognises ths fugitive youth as his son.

' CHAPTER IV The little girt rose startled, but her breeding was too fine for betrayal, and she went to him with hand outstretched. The boy took it as tie had taken her father’s, limply and without rising. The father frowned and smiled —how could the lad have learned manners? And then he, too, saw the hole in the moccasin, through wMch the bleeding had started again. “Take him into the kitchen. Barbara, and tell Hannah to wash his foot and bandage It.” The boy looked uncomfortable and shook his head, but the little girl was smiling and she told him to come Wwl r jS?® hl 111 y 11 “You Go On Back an’ Wait for Yo* Company, Little Miss; I’ll ’Tend to Him!” with such sweet imperiousness that he rose helplessly. Old Hannah’s eyes made a bewildered start! “You go on back an’ wait for yo’ company, little miss; I*ll ’tend to him!” And when the boy still protested, she flared up: “Looby here. son. little miss tell me to wash yo’ foot, an’ I’se gwinter do it, es I got to tie you fust; now you keep still YVhar you come from?” His answer was a somewhat haughty grunt that at once touched the quick Instincts of the old negress and checked further question. Swiftly and silently she bound his foot, and with’ great respect she led him to a little room In one ell of the great house in which was a tub of warm water, “Ole marster say you been travelin’, an’ mebbe you like to refresh yo’sef wid a hot bath. Dar’s some o’ little tnarsier’s clothes on de bed dar, an* a pair o’ his shoes, an’ I know dey’ll jus’ tit you snug. You’ll find all de folks on de front po’ch when you git through.” She closed the door. Once, winter and summer, the boy had daily plunged into the river with bls Indian companions, but he had never had a bath in his life, and he did not know what the word meant; yet be had learned so much at the fort that be had no trouble making out what the tub of water was for. For the same reason he felt no surprise when he picked up the clothes; he was only puzzled how to get into them. He tried, and struggling with the breeches be threw one hand out to the wall to keep from falling and caught a red cord with a bushy red tassel; whereat there was a ringing that made him spring away from It. A moment later there was a knock at his dour. “Did you ring, suh?" asked a voice. What that meant he did not know, and be made no answer. The door was opened slightly and a woolly bead appeared. “Do you want anything, suh?” “No." “Den I reckon hit was anndder bell—yassuh.” The boy began putting on tis own clothes. Outside Cclonel Dale and Barbara had strolled down the big path to the sun-dial, the colonel telling the story of the little Kentucky kinsman —the little girt listening and wide-eyed. “la he going to live here with us. paper “Perhaps. Yon must be very nice to him. He has lived a rude, rough life, but I an see he Is very sensitive." At the bend of the river there was the flash of dripp-’ng oars, a-d the song of the black oarsmen came across the yellow flood. “There they come!” cried Barbara. And from his window the little Kentuckian saw the company coming up the path, brave with gay clothes and smiles and gallantries. The colonel walked with a grand lady at the head, behind were the belles and beaux, and bringing up the rear was Barbara, escorted by a youth rs his own age, who carried bls hat under his am and bore himself as haughtily as his elders. Ko sooner did he see them mounting to the porch than there was the sound of a hora in the rear, and looking tot vt Abe other window the

lad saw a coach and four dash through the gate and swing around the road that encircled the great trees, and up to the rear portico, where there was a joyous clamor of greetings. Where did all those people come from? Were they going to stay there and would he have to be among them? All the men were dressed alike and not one was dressed like him. Panic assailed him, and once more he looked at the clothes on the bed. and then without hesitation walked through the hallway, and stopped on the threshold of the front d,or. A quaint figure he made there, and for the moment the gay talk and laughter quite ceased. The story of him already had been told, and already was sweeping from cabin to cabin to the farthest edge of the greet plantation. No son of Powhatan could have stood there with more dignity, and young Harry Dale’s face broke Into a smile of welcome. His father being indoors he went forward with hand outstretched. “I am your cousin Harry,” he said, and taking him by the arm lie led him on the round of presentation. “Mrs. Willoughby, may I present my cousin from Kentucky Y’ "This Is your cousin. Miss Katherine Dale; another cousin. Miss Mary; and this is your cousin Hugh.” And the young ladles greeted him with frank, eager interest, and the young gentlemen suddenly repressed patronizing smiles and gave hit- grave greeting, for if ever a rapier flashed from a human head, it flashed from the piercing black eye of mat little Kentucky backwoodsman when his cousin Hugh, with a rather whimsical smile, bowed with a politeness that was a trifle too elaborate. Mrs. General Willoughby guessed how the lad’s heart was thumping with the effort to conceal his embarrassment, and when a tinge of color spread on each side of his set mouth and his eyes began to waver uncertainly, her intuition was quick and kind. “Barbara,” she asked, “have you shown your ponies?” The little* girl saw her motive and laughed merrily: “Why, I haven’t had time to show him anything. Come on, cousin.” The boy followed her down the steps in his noiseless moccasins, along a grass path between hedges of ancient box. around an ell, and past the kitchen and toward the stables. At the gate the little girl called imperiously : “Ephraim, bring one of my ponies I” And in a moment out came a sturdy little slave whose head was all black skin, black wool and white teeth, leading two creamy-white little horses that shook the lad's composure at last, for he knew ponies as far back as he remember, but he had never seen the like of them. His hand almost trembled when he ran it over their sleek coats, and unconsciously he dropped Into file Indian speech and did not know it untU the girl asked laughingly: “Why, what are you saying to my ponies?” And he blushed, for the little girl’s artless prattling ant. friendliness were already beginning to make him quite human. “That’s Injun talk.” Hugh had followed them. “Barbara, your mother wants you,” he said, and the little girl turned toward the house. The stranger was ill at ease with Hugh and the latter knew it. “It must be very exciting where you live.” “How?" “Oh, fighting Indians and shooting deer and turkeys and buffalo. It must be great fun." “Nobody does It for fun —it’s mighty hard work.” “My uncle—your father —used to tell us abont his wonderful adventures out there.” “He had no chasce to tell me.” “But yours must have been more wonderful than his.” The boy gave a little grunt that was a survival of his Indian life, and turned to go back to the bouse. “But all this, 1 suppose, is as strange to yon." “More." Hugh was polite and apparently sincere in interest, but the lad was vaguely disturbed and he quickened his step. The porch was empty when they turned the corner of the house, but young Harry Dale came running down the steps, his honest face alight, and caught the little Kentuckian by the arm. “Get ready for -"pper, Hugh—come on. cousin,” he said, and- led the stranger :o his room and pointed to the clothes on the bed. "Don’t they fit?" he asked, smiling. “I don’t know —I don’t know how to git ipto ’em.” Young Harry laughed joyously. "Os course not I wouldn’t know how to put yours on either. You just wait.” he cried, and disappeared to return quickly with an armful of clothes.

HAD ORIGIN IN PALEOLITHIC TIMES

Custom of Erecting Cairns Above Bodies of Dead Was Common in Those Day*. In Paleolithie times, before the Atlantic burst in at Gibraltar, bands of white men often came down from what te dow Russia. They followed the Euxine river, along the present bed of the Aegean sea, skirting to the west of a lake that washed the shores of Crete and entered Africa near what is now Tripoli. ■ They were savage men who carried stone axes, stonetipped lances, and huge maces. Their eyes were blue, they had long beards, and wavy red. copper, or sandy hair. They brought their families with them, whole groups trudging on by wood and glade. —

“Take off your war-dress,” he said, “and I’ll show you.” With heart warming to such kindness, a. t] helpless against it, the lad obeyed like a child and waa dressed like a child. “Now, I’ve got to hurry," said Harry. “I’ll come back for you. Just look at, yourself," he called at the door. And the stranger did look at the wonderful vision that a great mirror as tall as himself gave back. His eyes began tn sting, and he nibbed them with the back of hie hand and looked at the hand curiously. It win, moist. He had seen tears in a wogian’s eyes, but he did not know that they could come to a man aud be felt ashamed. CHAPTER V The boy stood at a window looking out Into the gathering dusk. The neighing of horses, the lowing of cattle, the piping of rousting turkeys and motherly clutter of roosting hens, the weird songs of negroes, tha sounds of busy preparation through the house and from the kitchen—all were sounds of peace and plenty, security and service. And over In his own wilds at that hour they were driving cows and horses Into the stockade. They were cooking their rude supper in the open. A man had gone to each of the watch-towers. From the blackening woods came tha curdling cry of a panther and the hooting of owls. Away on over the still westward wilds were the wigwants of squaws, papooses, braves, the red men—red In skin. In blood, in heart, and red with hate against the whites. Perhaps they were circling a fire at that moment in a frenzied war-danqe —perhaps the hooting at that moment from the woods around the fort was not the hooting of owls at all. There all was hardship—danger; here all was comfort and peace. If they could see him now! See his room, his fire, his bed, his clothes! They had told him to come, and yet he felt now the shame of desertion. He had come, but he would not stay long away. The door opened, he turned, and Harry Dale came eagerly In. “Mother wants to see you.” The two boys paused in the hall and Harry pointed to a pair of crossed rapiers over the mantelpiece. “Those were your father’s,” he said; “he was a wonderful fencer.” The lad shook.his head in ignorance, and Harry smiled. “I’ll show you tomorrow." At a door in the other ell Harry knocked gently, and a voice that was low and sweet but vibrant with imperiousness called: “Come In!” “Here he is. mother.” The lad stepped into warmth, subtle fragrance and many candle lights. The great lady was just rising from a chair In front of her mirror, brocaded, powdered and starred with jewels. So brilliant a vision almost stunned the little stranger and it took an effort for him to lift his eyes to hers. “Why, this is not the lad you told me of,” she said. “Come here! Both A I ■ f'l \ llOwgg? of m® fix "Here He la, Mother." of yon." They came and the lady scrutinized them comparingly. “Actually you look alike—and, Harry, you have no advantage, even If you are my own son. 1 am glad you are here.” she’said with sudden soberness, and smiling tenderly she put both hands on his shoulders, drew him to her and kissed him. and again Lo felt in his eyes that curious sting.
