It veas clos of the gulch, and much of it was shadowed by a great overhanging rock, some fifty feet in thickness, which extended out from the mountaiu-side over his claim something like a penthouse above a door. But it was s six or seven feet from the ground, and him ample room to work b th it, so he {mbl no attention to it. He sank a shaft, but found no gold. He concluded to abandon the cluim ; but just before leaving, as he was standing on the outer edeéd of it and looking a rich vein of ore cropping out of th hanging ledge about half-way up. He instantly decided in his own mind that vein was his, as it s $ 1y thing directly over his elaim was as anuch his \nything divectly under it. He determined to dig up to the gold. Return. dng under the rock, the ingenious Mr. Drink- water began to sink, or rather to elev shaft. It 50 happened that Mr. Alexander bell, auother old miner, was out doing a little prospecting that afterncon, and in coming down around the mountain he halted on top of the very rock into which Mr. Drinewater w ising his shaft. Looking over the edge his eye lit on the auriferous =moin some twentyfive feet below. He in- staked out a claim and began to sink a shaft straight down into the rth d ‘rectly o Drinkwater. There then followed during the ensuing | week one of the most exciting struggle: ever witnessed in the Black Hills. The rock was soft and each man made good progress Mr. Drinkwater ran a staging up into his_ shaft_and extended it as he worked higher. Mr. Campbeli let himself down into his with a rope. Each became aware of | the other’ resence. All through the day and half of the night Mr. Drinkwater could hear the man above wielding his pick and whistling “The Campbells Are Coming Mr. Drinkwater recognized the tune and r plied with loud straine of “Die Wacht am_Rhein," with bursts of *On ward and Upward. As they drew nearer each frequently inscrted b blasts with the pleasing purpose of blowing the other out of his shaft, but nothing c: this. On the morning of the sixth day but two feet of rock remained between them, and Mr. Campbell stopped his whistli and, as he worked, shouted out his favorite tune in a tenor voice which could be heard half a mile. Mr. Drinkwater, swinging his pick with desperate energy German national hymn in o deep which seemed to make the ledge At 4 o'clock in the afternoon Mr. € after striking o particularly fierce blow, broke through and landed on the scaffolding in Drinkwater's shaft.

Then thev clinched each other and fought desperately. The staging gave way. and they fell to the bottom of the shaft, which rtled them that they gave over their rous intentions, and each sought a Fought for a Girl. The old aphorism that “when hearts are trump look out for war" has never been more fully exemplified than it was at Butte when two young men, who have been pay- | ing court to the same young lady, entered an old warehouse and fourht to a finish with eight-ounce gloves one of the fiercest and bloodiest prize ring contests that has ever taken place within the confines of Mon Only four rounds were requived to dec ‘who should say, “Fair lady, thou art miue but it is just possible thai the winner will postpone speaking this little piece until such time as he will present some other appearance than that of having been jammed through u brush fence.
