Canada and Mexico. Miss Wilson, born in Jersey Cltyj twenty years ago, grow tired of the humdrum of urban life a year ago and decided to take a hike across the continent. Sho expected adventure, and she found it; and, what Is more, she found a romance for which sho was not looking, Sho has returned to her home In Newark, but only to prepare her trousseau, and sho Is thrilling her friends with the stories of her adventures. Thorn were six women that stnited the hike, only one that finished It. Two girls returned to New York from Denver. Two took the train from Denver to Los Angeles, hoping to enter tho movies. The other two con- tinued afoot from Denver fur San Francisco. It was then that tho ical adventuies began. \Hiking to Colorado Springs from Denver,\ Mies Wilson recounted yes- terday, as though speaking of tho most trivial incident, \wo made a short cut across the Ranch. Wo were about one and a half miles from the road when we came upon a herd of steers that had bcon hidden from vlow behind a small hill. Btcors nro accustomed to seeing cowboys on horseback.

Our lungs voro giving out, our heaits al- most ceased their frantic pumping, our faces iero gray with flight and behind us thundered tho cruzed steel's. \Wo were about to give up In de- spair, when suddenly in tho hollow cup of a small depression on the oien spaces we sighted a double liarled wiru lence.

They continued on nnd reached tho foot of Pike's Pc.ik, which Miss Wilson decided to climb. Her companion remained behind nnd Miss Wilson set out ono evening about 7 o'clock, sleeping by the roadsldo after watching tho sun set In a flume of copper and blood-colore- d glory. At tho dawn sho set forth again on her climb, but n sudden sleepiness over- powered her In the forenoon. Perhaps it was tho rarefied atmosphere. Any- way, she toojt a nap. \Two hours later I awakened, to hear shrill shrieks,\ Miss Wilson said. \Two enormous bald enisles were swirling mill screaming ! hh ilnn twenty feet iibnn' my leni TV bud uwukened me lv I , nllii' li mid I W1IM Il lUlle. l IlM!.' i u,n lie ii ni'Ht ,i ml I. -; . i..

Snow and bitter cold, and hailstones that beat a tattoo upon my head until m.v brain was numb with pain. In tho teeth of the gale 1 reeled and stag- gered forward, not sure of my trail, not knowing in which direction I wns going, except that it wns up. I came upon tho cog road that climbs to the summit, and struggled on through the storm, with head down, digging tho toes of my moccasins In each I T cog, which was coated with Ice and snow. \Then something mado mo look up. 1 don t know what.

No ono saw me, nnd I kept on and on, almost giving up hope when suddenly tho storm lifted and I was saved.\ Miss Wilson rested, continued her climb, nnd reached tho summit In safety. Then si returned to her companion and they set out for Yel lowstono Park. A brown bear gave them a thrill there, raiding tho larder of their camp and getting away with some bacon whllo tho two girls lay \playing dead.\ They fooled the bear, who did not molest them. Their real adventure In Yellowstone came when, walking out In the night, they lost their way and came to a little clearing, where tho ground seem ed strangely whlto. This Is how Mlsa Wilson tells of It: \Wo were walking on u surface of hollow, glossy substunce when we caught the warning boom of u sound ivo bud heard under pleasanter cir- cumstances that nfternoon. It chilled our he'Jtrts with horror wo were on tho geyser beds, and less than five feet from Old Faithful Itself! \Wo were terrified.
