BREAD BETTER THAN GOLD.

July G injury
During the closing days of De-
cember, 1916, gold was found Ia
my mothers cabin at Bonner Lake
by John Denton. | remember the
night we'll. The storm tiends were
shlieking in their wild ninth, We
were sitting about the fire Ia
our little daik home, busy with our
thoughts. Denton with his cane
kept knocSlng pieces off the large
rocks used as fire irons on which
to place the wood. Something
bright attracted his attention, and
picking up pieces of the rock he
examined them closely; then turn
ing to my mother he said, "Mrs.
Reed. this is gold." My mother
replied that she wished 1T were
bregd. Denton knocked more
chips from the rocks, and he
hunted in tho ashes for the shining
PARTICLES until he had gathered
about teaspoonful. This he tied
ina small piece OF buckskin and
placed in his pocket, saying, III we
ever get away from here ! am COM
ing back for more" Denton start
ed out with the first relief party,
but persisted on the way, and no one
thought of the gold in his pocket.
Denton was about thirty years OF
aye; he was born in Sheffield, Eng
land, and was a gunsmith and gold
heater by trade. Gold has never
been found on the shore of the lake,
but q few miles from there in tue
mountain canons, from which this
rock possibly came, rich mines
hpye been discovered.

1t will be remembered by the readers
of the Enterprise, hearing was held in
Silver City before Judge Ncwcomb,
special master in chancery, some time

receiver of Meredith & Altman against

Newcomb handed in his report finding
in favor OF the receiver and establishing

report requires the defendants to return

also the $2, ,000 but allows the bank d

percolated through these assures,
aud had dissolved portions of their
wall rocks and deposited silica and
sulphur and the metals in them,
would they not have formed the
typical fssure vein ore deposits?
And would not these deposits have
had common origin, been formed
at the same time, and been here
and there connected by the fissures
uniting, or by having cross fssures
or fracture planes, which miners
call spurs or feeders, leading from
one to another? And would not
such a condition of Affairs give rise
to endless litigation, under Il mod

own the apex of veins that are SC
united beneath the surface?
Would not such a method of for
nation make the existence of par
allel ore bodies quite probable, and
suggest to the practical min er the
necessity for frequent cross cutting
such as successful and practical

necessity for hunting forsome theo-

and the debt fully discharged, much to
