uproar made his remarks inaudible. When
he could make himself heard the premier
denied that the government desired Or.

Thursday. In the smaller piece, which
would weigh about a half pound, there
was said to be nearly four dollars
worth of the precious metal and it
looked as II that claim was nothing
more than the truth. The larger piece
was five or six times the weight of the
first and also contained a plentiful

the quartz came from was not divulged,

was not a great distance from Forest

A man named Arnold had brought the
