THE EROADTO WEALTH
SOME MEN THINK THEY HAVE FOUND
 SUCH A HIGHWAY.
Discovery of an Ancient Roadway Leading to the Summit of California Mountain. Finders Believe It Leads to Immensely Rich Gold Mines.

A huntsinan, who has been gunning h the territory lying south of Sweet water dam aad along the north slopes of San Miguel mountain in California, has returned to San Diego with 8 story of more than usual interest. While there he came across Heman c. Cooke of San Diego, who has geological if not a real mining inclination, and another man. They are at work on what has al- ready proved to be something of sur prise, and which may eventually prove to be very large sized sensation.
 It appears that ill some way Cooke learned that an ancient road had been discovered leading from the river level on the north side to point near the summit of San Miguel. He decided to investigate, but chiefly for entertain ment at first. He took pick and shov- el, established camp and prepared to make a thorough job of it. As he pro- gressed his interest increased, for he soon discovered that below the shifting surface of the mountain side and under the debris of vegetation solid roadbed, well defined and thoroughly built, ex- isted In places were large trees, indi- eating it's great age. This road was fol- lowed we'll up into the mountains, and on the way several branch roads, lead ing to different spurs, were easily traced. All along these roads in places Cooke found pieces of broken rock, which have given what he believes is the clew to the construction of the road. He has some specimens crushed which assayed well in gold and silver.
 This was also supported by the fact that several implements of manifestly ancient make have been found which are believed to be mining tools. Cooke thinks he has traced the road to the end, and at that point has found a mound which he believes is the dump from a shaft or tunnel, and his present work is to find the opening which will lead to the mine. He believes its discovery is not far distant, as he has narrowed it down to possible space of about. 200 feet square.
 The conclusion is that this is an an- cient and rich mine, or the road would have been made. The discoveries are said to be more interesting to Cooke be- cause more than once he has dreamed of discovering a mountain of gold and silver, with tools all at hand for taking out the metal.

Six Feet Seven and Twelve Toes.

Probably one of the largest patients who was ever admitted to Bellevue hos pital, New York, applied to Register Gleeson for treatment the other morn ing. He was Harry L. Currey, 30 years old, fireman on the tugboat Glen Is- land. Currey is feet inches high, and, according to MT. Gleeson, would find difficulty in getting pair of ready made sleeves or gloves in the city that would be large enough for him. An other peculiarity about the big fireman is that he has six toes on each foot, the little toe being divided into two distinct parts. Currey has an organic disease. - New York Sun. M9

BLOOMINGTON IN GALA ATTIRE.
Illinois G. A. r.. Encampment Is
On.

BLOOMINGTON, ILL.,, May 13.-
Bloomington tonight is glowing with
decorations and electric lights, the oc-
casion being the encampment of the
Illinois department of the Grand Army
and state gatherings of Sons of Vet
Grams, WomanS Relief corps, Ladies
of the Grand Army and Ladies' Aid
society. The only drawback is the in
clement weather rendering the camp
of the Sons of Veterans, at Miller
Park, uncomfortable. The council of
administration of the G. A. r. was in
session all day hearing reports and
preparing a programme for the busi-
ness meetings. The finances of de-
partment are reported in fine condition
and the department generally pros
porous. The bulk of the members will
arrive tonight and tomorrow forenoon,
including Chicago posts. Tonight sew
eral receptions and camp fires were
held.
General Powell, of Belleville, and
General McNulta, of Chicago, candi-
dates for commander, have both es-
tablished headquarters and their cam
paigns are booming. The Cairo dele
cation is making very vigorous and
able campaign for the encampment of
1896. The members have flooded the
town with badges in the form of the
United States flag. Springfield and
Quincy are also in the field. The Sons
of Veterans and the Woman's corps
will probably elect officers tomorrow.
The Sons of Veterans will also tomor-
row discuss and act on the proposed
dedication of the confederate monu-
ment at Chicago Decoration day, in re-
gard to which matter the G. A. R.
will also certainly take action. The
matter is being talked of on every
hand among all organizations.

FARGO, N. D., May 13.-While frost
was general last night, little harm was
done. Corn and potatoes were out
some, but though the season is three
weeks earlier than usual, not much
grain has advanced so far as to be
subject to injury. Indications tonight
are for frost.

Frost this morning did some damage to
tender vegetation. The injury will not
be serious, however, as there is yet
time to plant again where damage has
occurred.

Grain is six inches high, but suffered
no damage from the freeze on account
of the snow, which gradually melted
off during the day.
MADISON, s. D., May 13.-A heavy
frost has damaged early gardens here.
Corn in fields is not far enough along

in low places.
FULTON, S. D., May 13.-A light
frost did little damage to crops and
gardens, but proved wonderful de-
stroyer of the Russian thistle.
CARTHAGE, S. D.-A heavy frost
here for the past three. nights has
killed off all the garden vegetables and
killed all the flax that was up. Not
very much damage was done, how
ever, as very little was up to be in
jured. Farmers say that the Russian
thistles were the worst sufferers. This
is good news, and very few tears will
be shed over their demise.
ABERDEEN, S. D.-The tempera-
ture reached the freezing point last
night. Thin ice formed on shallow
water. In some localities slight dam
age was done to early corn and garden
truck.
FULTON, s. D.-A light frost did
little damage to crops and gardens,

THE WIFE ARRESTED.
One of the Duluth SyyindIers Is
Caught at Detroit.

DETROIT, Mich, May 13-Mrs.
Smith was arrested this afternoon by
authority of a telegram from Duluth,
stating that warrant had been issued
for her arrest on a charge of forgery.
1t is claimed that Mrs. Smith recently
visited Duluth for the purpose of help
ing her husband victimize Mrs. May
E. Cameron; that she impersonated
Mrs. Cameron at the American Ex-
change bank, and presented Mrs Cam
eron's certificate of deposit in the
Wayne County Savings bank, having
forged the signature of Mrs. Cameron's
maiden name. May e. Shatzel, in which
name the certificate. was made out.
Mrs. Smith protests entire innocence,
but will be held to await the arrival
of the sheriff from Duluth. She says
she never knew of Mrs. Cameron's ex-
istence until this trouble came upon
her; she never saw her but once; she
went to Duluth, but she suspected that
her husband was living with some
other woman there. She saw but little
of her husband while there, and moth
ing of Mrs. Cameron at any time. Her
husband, she says, returned with her
as far as Chicago, where he deserted
her after putting her aboard a Detroit
train, since which time she has seen
nor heard nothing of him.
