ditions Of tho Indian Territory and |

are Of more than passing note.
That there win be found gold, sill
yer and coal in large quantities,
hardly any one doubts, but
when you speak OF Old "Spanish |
gold" mines, people smile as they
do when you speak OF Captain /
Kids buried treasures. They
don't be lisve there ever was any
such thing. But while in the In |
dian Territory on late exploring |
expedition the writer became thor |
onghly convinced that there was

1850 G houleau, Valley Il Co., had !
a trading post at or near a point !
now known as Walker few miles !
from Purcell. The Indians used |
Ia bring in gold every day. Some
times il was in dust form but often
they brought nuggets Of pure gold. /

they got it. Either the key to the /
mine has been lost or the present |
Indians don't know whore the |
precious metal is. Chouteau, Val (
ey a. Co., were at one timo at the /
head Of the American Fur Con,-
