4 NEWSPAPER MANS LUCK
Matt W. Anderson Strikes Some Rich
Ore in the Penobscot at

The old Penobscot mine at Marysyille

Anderson, who has taken a lease and

Snowdrlft vein, where the former
owners had run off the ore bodies.
In the three shafts on the Leonard

length of about 100 feet to a maximum
depth of 80 feet. One shaft was -ex-

effort to find the vein, but theyI all
failed. The ore mined near the sur
face was all high grade and made the
finest record in milling of any ore ever
treated by the Longmaids, who are
among the best millmen in Montana.
Mr.. Anderson started work on the
lowest levels of the deepest shaft, and
after drifting Is feet west had Is inches

The Penobscot is one of the famous
mines of Montana, having a known
record of over $1.000000 produced. 1t
was first worked by Nate Vestal. who
took out over $150,00O in few months.
1t was then sold for 100000 to New
York company, who took out over
100000. After various complications it
was bought by John Longma'd, who
ran it for over year and took out
over 100000. After a few years he sold
it to his sons-John Henry, Frank and
Charles. They worked out the low
grade ore bodies left by the former
owners. This averaged little over
SO, but in three years they took out
over $245.OO0 at a net profit of over 800
600. Every man who has had anything
to do with the mine has made a for
tune.
The Penobscot vein has been worked
to a depth Of 800 feet on the east side
of the main shaft and 200 feet on the
west side. One shaft is down AGO feet
but the levels ran out of pay ore to the
east. The vein is now under water be-
low the 16O-foot level, and it would cost
$40, 900 to pump it out and open up the
pay ore on the lower levels. But there
is an undeveloped vein which may he

Some one at the table, 80 the Boston

carelessly. look much alike. Justice
Brown whimsically complained that II

bench. He went on to state that their
mail matter was often exchanged with
varying results. But the worst fate OF
all befell him when he was credited by

TIE DATE o. THE FLOOD.
Bible Fncts on which the Bishop
RaHed His Question.

Some people had fun over the re-
ported rejection Of eight candidates for
the African Methodist ministry in the
south by the examining bishop because
they could not tell the date OF the
flood. Nevertheless the bishop who
asked the question knew what he was
doing. 1t may not have been fair
question. but there IL concise answer
to It in the Bible. and he no doubt
thought that the eight candidates. II
they were we'll versed in the Old Tesla
ment, would answer II ut once.
The date Of the food was 1.6j6 years
after the birth Of Adam. In the second
month and the seventeenth day. 1t be-
gan then and continued for 40 days
and nights. This Is how it Is figured:
The third verse Of the fifth chapter or
Genesis reads thus. And Adam lived
1870 years and begat n son in his own
likeness. after his image, and called his
name Seth" Then in the sixth verse
it Is told that Seth lived l05 years and
begat Enos Adam, says the fourth
verse. lived 800 years after the birth
OF Seth, and the latter after the birth
of Enos lived S07 years. So it goes on.
Enos begat Calnan when he was DO;
Calnan begat Mahalaleel when he was
rs; Mahalalccl begat Jared when he
was Go; Jared begat Enoch when he
was 162. Methuselah was born to
Enoch when the latter was 60, and
when Methusclah was 1S7 he begat
Lamech. and I.amcch's son Noah came
into the world when the father was
1872. This brings us down to the birth
of Noah. which according to the added
ages of the several patriarchs at the
time their sons were born. occurred
Oj6 years after the birth Of Adam.
In the seventh chapter of Gensls the
eleventh verse reads as follows: I'm
the six hundredth year OF Noah's life.
I'm the second month. the seventeenth
day Of the month. the same day were all
the fountains Of the great deep broken
up and all the windows of heaven
were opened" This was the flood,
and 1t came to pass in the year 1876

"The sacking of the imperial palaces

In the imperial summer palace were
two big clocks under glass in the apart
