SAN BERNARDINO

SAN BERNARD1NO, April 2s.-Two
discoveries of very rich ore were mad in
the virginia Dale district last week.
wnlcn Will rank as among the most i'm
portant in the mining history of that
olstrlct. A new body of ore was struck
e,i lne Desert Queen, in the tunnel which
superintendent Steele has been driyin o.
into the mountain, the vein being four
rect thick and the ore SO rich that gold
may readily be horned out of the de-
composed rock.
The other strike, which is a still rich
er one, was made in the Eagle Cliff
mime, and the ore vein, which is only
eighteen inches thick, assays from s175
to $500, and in the two-stamp mill on
Grated there, $125 has been taken out of
ton of rock.
The strike made by the Eagle Cliff
company is remarkable one, in that
the owner had been following what
seemed to be forlorn hope. At depth
of about twenty-five feet the ore gave
out, the vein disappeared entirely. and
for f1fty-six feet the shaft was contin-
ued until a total depth of eighty feet
had been reached. The only hopeful i'll
dication through the distance was the
narrow vein of tale, but last week the tale
again opened into vein of splendid ore
eighteen inches wide, and which assays

tective force in the ordinary city. They
are on duty all the time. Few of the
agents know one another. This is re-
garded as a great advantage. An
agent could be in the company of nine
other agents and not one in the group
OF ten would know that he was in the
presence of fellow-officers. Their SUI
periors confer with them in secret, and
they never meet at one place. 1t is an
everyday occurrence for an agent to
turn in a report accusing another agent
of suspicious conduct. The latter is
simply following up some case, and the
other, not knowing him to be a secret
officer, makes his report. So elaborate,
complete and extensive is this organ
lied spy system that little goes On that
does not reach the ears of some official.
During the coronation festivities at
Moscow the Third Section will be con-
Centrated at that point. In the greaC
crowds which flock to the ancient city

agents. They will be present at every

car and of the imperial government.
Much has been written about the
Third Section, but no complete story
of its organization has ever been told.
Even the cleverest and the most relied
upon detectives in its employ do not
know the real facts of the matter
Americans who have lived in the prin-
cipal Russian cities and who have
written about it have only been able
to obtain the barest skeleton of its for
nation, but that is as much as any one
knows.
Secrecy and mystery form its foun-
6ation. How many men compose the
force is unknown. They may number
5000, and possibly $4,000. The section
includes men placed in every walk of
life, from the humblest to the mos
powerful, the artisan and the diplomat
the high army officer and the common
soldier, the laborer and the society
man, the merchant and the thief. In
every big city the world over are men
of the Third Section. They are in New
York, in Chicago, in Boston, Philadel-
phia and all, of the large towns of the
country. They swarm in London, Paris
Berlin, Vienna, Constantinople and the
great capitals of Europe. The cities
of Asia are full of them.
Those in the Russian cities have no
regular hours for reporting for duty
as is the case with members of the de-
