4 REM RhABLE MAN.
HE LOCATES COPPER VEINS By A PAIN IN
HIS FOOT.
From The Milwaukee Sentinel.

From The Milwaukee Sentinel
There is a real novelty In the wonder line In
Wisconsin, carefully prepared newspaper
article is published from Grantsburg Burnett
County. which tells OF an astonishing discovery
Of copper veins in the country between Atlas
Postoffce n Polk County and Niger Hill in
Trade Lake Town, Burnett County. The Cop
pervle Mining Company is reported TO have
begun the sinking Of "a shaft seventeen miles
mort beast Of ST. Croix Falls and fifteen miles
sOUt beast Of Grantsburg. and ten miles from
the Minnesota State line" The desrability Of
this well-defined location for copper mining
purposes is admitted 10 nave been demonstrated
In an entirely original manner 1t Appeals from
the story OF the correspondent that the Rev Mr.
Fredin. OF Omaha. is unable to walk upon
ground which COnCeals mineral without feeling
a tlcklish sensation In his right foot which
groEs stronger-presumably according to the
richness of the ore-passing up his body,
through his shoulders. TO his left arm. If he
has a wire in his hand the force pulls him to
the ground. Ii is asserted. moreover. that those
Who have tried to hold him declare that II is
more than man muscle which struggles with
them. while those who have witnessed the facial
contOrtions credit the claim that he undergoeS
great agony when discovery is made.
The remarkable powers OF this Omaha clergy
man were first noticed In Sweden nearly twenty
years ago, when he traced the workings OF a
developed mEe simply by following his tickled
feet.
Some pereons may not be satisfied with the
assure nee that the Rev. Mr.. Fredin located one
vein twice on one mans farm. offered him
Sl5ONp for the property. and after his refusal
to sell a company was organized 10 develop the
mine 1t will, perhaps be asked how the man
who urilzes his tcklish feet to discover min
erals ca tell whether 1t is copper or iron which
Is concealed beneath. Undoubtedly curious
minds will inquire what the Kew. Mr. Fredn
has BEEN doing with his feet during the twenty
years sInce he discovered their peculiar value
10 the world Such persons simply have no APP
precia ion Of n good thing when II ~ brought
10 them and are ignorant OF the resources Of
