A Lucky SAot-Kiliing a Grizzly

Union Democrat (Sonora) of 22d Octo-
Der, tells the following story Z:
"John Minear, former resident of
Sonora, but now sojourning in the noun
tains, one day last week shot grizzly
the second one by the way, he had killed
during the week-which rolled down the
mountain some distance, lodging against
ledge Of quartz rock. While engaged
in skinning the animal, his attention was
attracted to some broken pieces of the
rock containing gold. On further ex-
animation along the ledge, by knocking
off the moss, he was made aware that he
had found lead of astonishing richness
which he at once took possession Off
Some specimens from the claim we have
seen, taken from the surface, and gold
is visible in profusion. This is in the
neighborhood Of the Banister claim, and
on the famous Buchanan lead"

it the spring blooms and the autumn
blows in it the poet sings, and with his
song the low wind comes fresh and sweet
