ON THE CACHE La PoUDRE.
Gold Is Where You Find IT, and
WYndham Found It.

Last summer, on the Cache La
Poudre river, in Weed county, Colo
RADIO. a freshet uncovered a strong
vein of rich ore on the banks of the
stream, and it was left for a stranger
in that region TO find it. according to
the Denver Republican. which says:
Howard Wyndman, whose discovery
of rich gold ore at the head of the
Cache La POudre last summer, eX-
cited considerable interest at the time.
returned from London Thursday, and
is at the Brown Palace hotel. 1t will
be remembered that Mr. Wyndman
started to make a trip to the Klondike.
but stopping in this state made the
discovery that has convinced him that
Colorado is good enough.
Il had the ore that I took to London
with me tested in several wavs," said
he, and obtained the same results in
every instance-an average of nearly
$4,000 per ton in gold. Some of the
samples that I have with me were
roasted and wherever there was a
speck of the dark mineral that shows
in the ore. the result was a bubble of
gold. I found that the ore yielded
readily to treatment by the cyanide
process, which simplifies the matter
very materially, as we shall put up a
cyanide plant at once.
The vein is about four feet wide
with walls as smooth as a pavement,
and sometimes the rich material is on
one and sometimes on the other side
We now have a tunnel in about Go
feet, and the ore appears to be coming
into sulphides. I have an idea that it
viii come into a solid body of sulphides
which will probably run lower than the
ore discovered on the surface. Some of
the sulphide ore that l took to London
ran fully as rich as the other The rich
ore is very refractory, and the only
way that I could get out the values
was by using an enormous proportion
of lead and litharge. 1 am now max
ing arrangements for my machinery.
We propose TO put up a ten-stamp mill
at first, which viii have a capacity of
about 20 tons a day, and enlarge it as
we may require. We also expect to
put in steam drill.
It is astonishing how little is known
in London about Colorado. They knew
that the state produced a large amount
OF silver at one time, and were greatly
surprised TO find that it had this year
produced one-thinrd as much gold as
the Transvaal. They wondered why
such good properties We're not brought

ulous when / told them that the own

THE OLD LAWYER MINE.
A Denver Man Buys a Famous Idaho
Property.

u
Property.
The purchase of the celebrated Law
yer mine, located near Placerville, Ida,
by William Church of this city, says
the Denver Republican, brings once
more into prominence one of the Ia
nous mines of that state. In the early
days of mining in Idaho, this property
was phenomenally rich, and some of
the stories told about it sound like the
marvellous inventions of Scheherezade.
One story is to the effect that Patrick
Sheridan, the former owner, becoming
impatient with his men, who happened
to be working in a lean streak, went
into the drift and, in fit of petulance,
told the men that, single-handed, he
could take out more gold than the
whole crew. The men with equal petu-
lance threw down their tools and told
him he would better try 1t himself.
The story goes that Sheridan took a
pick and, with a few blows in the face
of the drift, uncovered a chunk of
quartz, from which was extracted be-
tween five and six pounds of pure gold,
and that before the pocket was eX
hausted, nearly $4,000 was taken out.
Like most of the bonanzas of the early
days, however, when the cream of the
surface workings had been taken out,
it was supposed by the owner that what
remained was not worth working. At
ter taking out gold by the handfuls, it
was too slow a process to take it out
from the rock by the careful and eco
nomical methods now in vogue. Be
sides. at that time the extraction of
values from low grade ores had not
attained the present stage of perfection,
and for a number of years the mine
has remained idle.
Mr.. Church is going to work upon
modern methods. and has put in a Sc
ries of heavy Chilean mills. which he
has operated with success in his New
Mexico property. Mr.. Church says
that the mill is now about ready for
operations and viii have a capacity of
about So tons per day. The vein is
about 80 feet wide and carries an i'm
mense body of low grade ore. which
will run from So to so per ton in gold.
This insures a good profit upon the
ore. as il can be mined and milled for
not more than 81 per ton. The mill is
located at the foot of the mountain,
and If the results of the work now in
progress equal the anticipations, the
mill will be enlarged and another tun-
mel started from the location of the
mill.
The rich ore chutes in the upper
workings ran from $50 to $3.50 per ton
in free milling ore, and there is a pos
sibility that they may be struck at a
lower depth, though Mr.. Church says
that he is not looking for high grade
stuff, which. if it comes, will be so
much fat. About 40 men are at work
on the property, and those familiar
with the mine are of the opinion that
Mr. Church has secured one of the
most valuable properties in the west

THE PRESIDENTS TERMs.-To a
few of his congressional party friends
the president has disclosed the fact
that he has partly made up his mind
as to the terms which Spain must &C
cede to before she can negotiate for
peace. He has determined that, first
of all, she must consent to abandon all
her possessions in the Western hemis-
phere. Cuba must be turned over to
the men who have been fighting for
their freedom for over three years.
Porto Rico must be turned over to the
United States to indemnify this coun-
try in part for the cost of the war and
for the loss of the Maine and her sail
ors. The island is to be used by the
United States for an outlying naval
base in southern waters for the Allan
tic end of the Nicaragua canal.
AS to the future of the Philippines,
the president is still in doubt. He
will probably ask congress to aid in
reaching conclusion as to what is to
be done with the islands.
The president is hopeful that when
Santiago is taken, the Cervera squad
ron disposed of, Porto Rico suhjugated
and Captain General Blanco reduced
to actual starvation without the posi-
bility of help from home, Spain will sue
for peace. He is willing to grant it on
the terms suggested, but on no other.

Vice President of Cuban Republic Was Not
Captured by Spaniards.
The crew and passengers of the
British steamer Belvidere, which was
wrecked on the night of May 25, on
the coast of Cuba, near Cape Maysi,
were brought to this city today on the
Norwegian fruit steamer Kong Erode,
says Philadelphia dispatch of Wed
nesday. Among the rescued passen-
gers was Domingo M. Capote, vice
president of the Cuban republic, who
bears important dispatches to the Gu
ban junta in this city. He refuses to
state the nature of the dispatches.
The vice president said that the Cuban
army is not in the best condition for
effective cooperation with the Ameri-
can army. He stated that the Cubans
are armed with Remington and Maus-
er rifles, most of which have been
captured from the Spaniards. The Gu
ban army, however, was short of am
but it was accustomed to
fight with little ammunition, he said,
and it will fight anyhow.
DR.. Capote said that at present there
are 10000 Cuban soldiers in the pro.
vince of Santiago under the command
of General Calixto Garcia. AS to the
number of Spanish soldiers in the city,
he could not say, but thought there
were about 5000 concentrated there.
