Mr.. Finnegan reports that he
met in the Wichita mountains
miners from California, Alaska,
Colorado and othor great mineral
regions and that they were all sat
SIZED with the prospects that they
made in the Wichitas. His three
claims are near the new town cali
ed Park City and be believes that
there are every good reason to
think that they viii develop into
paying properties. Park City in

towns in The new country as there
are already over five hundred ac-
tnal settlers there and if there are
any paying mineral claims they
are in the neighborhood Of Park
City. Oklahoma Times-Journal.

There is an entire lack Of official
information here concerning the

the Colombian minister hs.
actually left Venezula, as re

The departure Of the minister
would be in line with what was
foreshadowed when the American
