The Old Colorado River Bed.

Says the Yuma Sentinel: Some sixty miles east of this city and two miles south of the Mohawk section house on the Southern Pacific railroad can be seen large force of men at work.
 This is the mining camp of Profes- sor Rowland of San Francisco. It will be recollected that last summer the professor located several miles Of placer country and did considerable work on one of his many claims. Hot weather came on and work was stop ped until cool weather set in. Prof. Rowland went to San Francisco, and it is said that during his stay there he organized stock company to prospect for the ancient Colorado river bed. AC any rate the professor went through here q few weeks ago and there fol- lowed him shortly several carloads Of machinery and lumber.
 The professor claims that in the prehistoric age the Colorado river ran  where he Is now at work. He says that with the assistance Of his divin- ing-rod he has traced the Colorado river bed of ancient times from it's fountain head in Utah to the Gulf of California.
 Near tue ranch of Geo. W. Norton in the Mohawk valley is where it cross es the Gila river, and from that point the old channel takes southerly course until 1t reaches the gulf
 At the place where the professor has his men now at work he feels positive lie buried untold wealth. He has a large number of men at work night and day sinking two double compart- ment shafts. They are working in shifts of eight hours. Get good wages and their money when earned.
 It is the prophecy of the professor that when the bedrock of the ancient Colorado river is reached, gold will be taken out in bucket fulls and shipped by trainloads. Let us hope that the prophecy may come true.
