COG HERpING DOG.
An Ottawa Man Secures Such an Ami
NAL in Dixie.

Ottawa, May 13.-In the south it is
customary to herd the nearly wild hog
peculiar to the country, with trained
dogs, as it is to similarly handle sheep
in the north.
Mr.. J. P. Kerr, when on his recent
trip to Louisiana, secured a magnifi-
cent specimen of the species for Mr..
F T. Crane, and succeeded in getting
him through after much tribulation-
the animal was twice stolen en- route.
The dog is a medium sized brindle,
smooth pelt, and weighs about 10
pounds. He is remarkably well trained
and is from a strain that has been in
one family since 1912.

county, Cal, gives details of remark
able find of pocket Of gold yielding
within week $42, 900 in the old Mann
moth mine near Sonora. which had been
regarded as worthless. A. Colby. pio-
neer of Tuolumne county, and Roy
Beckwith, youth OF 10, are the lucky
finders of the pocket, which is not yet
exhausted.
The Tanzy mine recently was pur-
chased of f. Tanzy for $400 and is un-
der lease to Colby and Beckwith, who
pay 25 per cent of the proceeds Of the
mine. The latter were looked ON as
oranks for leasing the supposedly worth
less mine. When almost discouraged at
the prospects Of getting nothing for their
labor, fortune smiled on them.
The Tanzy Is on the same lead as the
Bonanza, which in early days was the
richest pocket mine known, and which
has a record Of yielding $3.50, 900 in a
single afternoon.
Colby at one time worked the Bonan-
"a mine and took out many thousands,
only to spend them searching for more
gold, and it was by exercising knowl-
edge he had of the dip, angle and di-
rection of the Bonanza mine that he
was enabled to sink a shaft almost a
mile from the Bonanza and strike the
same lead and another pocket Of gold
the value of which has not been equaled
in many years. 1t comes, too, when
most needed. as Colby had expended his
last dollar in mining operations.
A special bulletin from Redding,
CAL, says that authentic news has just
come in from Hall City, Trinity coun-
ty, by stage, of the discovery of an i'm
mense body of ore 600 feet wide and
many miles in length near there. 1t is
supposed to be the mother lode of Sierra
Madre, for which miners have been
searching for 30 years and from which
geologists say all rich quartz and gravel
Of the Sierra foothills have been brought
by glacial action. Chicago Tribune.
