miles. From Mount Scott. eight miles
west Of Fort sill to Mount Baker. twenty
miles further west, the mountains consist
of solid range, iwtn only here and there
a pass through which road can be made.
from Mount Baker west the mountains
consist OF less detached chains scattered
here and there over the plain. on al
sides the level plain comes up to the
base OF the mountains, or perhaps it
would be more correct TO say that only
the tops OF the mountains are sticking
up out of a sea Of plain. Geologically
buried ranges, long since submerged in
a preplstuous sea. The material which
now appear are but the high peaks Of
that time. The mountains that compose
the level plain once occpied the mountain
slopes and submits and during that time
of submeTgence was washed down and
deposited in the sea. When this sea was
drained of. the level place remained with
its protruding peaks and much as we see
it today.
The mountains consist chiefly of three
kinds of ores-an unstratified rock, gran
ite, sabbro and parphyry. with occasional
dykes of diOrite and quartz. Flanking
the range on the northeast and southeast
at a distance of some miles from the
main body are hills of limestone and oc-
Casionaly coarse sandstone, and, as l
have said, around and among all the hills
is the level plain, which near the hills
consists of a conglomerate wash COM
posed of rounded boulders, and at dis
tance is composed of red clay and shale
typical red beds.
There is scarcely a square foot of the
Wichitas that has not been staked of as
a mining claim. Even tie limestone hills
have not escaped. These rocks in which
there is not only geological probability,
but almost no possibility of finding min
eral in paying quantities, are full of pros
pect holes and covered with claim notices.
The favorite plan seems 10 be to stake
off a placer claim. Having staked off
the placer claim on some high limestone
ridge, the owenr proceeds to prospect
for leads or veins which do not exist
In one place there Is a ledge of coarse
sandstone grit that runs for a number
of miles across the country. 1t contains
in places a greenish clagly substance
known as glauconite formed originally OF
organic ooze. These greenish particles
have been mistaken for copper stain and
the strata is known as the star copper
lode" Throughout its extent it has been
covered with claims. To these mining
claims all sorts of names have been given
] quote frerl memory but a few Of the
hundreds: Copper King. Gold King
Silver King 'Skeeter. Hard Luck Old
Glory John A. Logan, Last Chance
Diamond Queen. Seven-up,' Big Nedi-
cine.
While it would perhaps be unadvised
to sav that there is no mineral in paying
quantities IN the Wichita mountains. the
statement may be safely made that the
amount that may be hoped for is by no
means large Hundreds of people who
are now camping among the mountains
viii suffer before spring. On nine-tenths
of the claims any labor performed is
but a waste of time and money"

funds can be used in payment of teach

dog was fighting another deg. While
the commissions were not 50 severe as

CAME TO PINE BLUFF SUNDAY AND HAS NOT SINCE BEEN
 SEEN.
He Is Young Swede About 35 Years Old, and of Good Moral
 Habits.
ViGiLANT SEARCH BEING MADE

MT. Charles Halen, young Swede of about thirty-five years. is missing. His home is at Magnolia, Ark, where he has been in the employ of the Davies Lumber company for some time as bookkeeper.
 Chief of Police Craig, of this city, received telephone message from Magnolia this morning stating that Halen was missing and when last seen was in this city. The officials of the lumber company requested that a thorough search be made in this city for the man as they fear that he has fallen into bad hands.
 The man came here with a number of other parties from Magnolia last Sunday. boarding the TeXarkana ex- cursion train at McNeill.
 After arriving here Halen, in some manner, became separated from his friends, but being thirty-five years of age, they suspected nothing and thought that he was old enough and big enough to take care of himself Sunday night at II o'clock, at which hour the excursion train returned, the members of the party. searched the coaches for Halen, whom they had not seen since he left the train that morning. A thorough search failed to locate the man and his friends be- came uneasy. They feared that he might have had some valuable amount of money on his person and was trap. ped by negroes. eight hundred of them making up the larger part Of the excursion crowd Then again they thought he would turn up all right at Magnolia Monday morning, but Mon day morning came and Monday night passed and Halen failed to show up at Magnolia. The lumber company of cials thought it best to notify the Pine Bluff police and give them all the particulars regarding his sudden disappearance.
 Upon receiving the news Chief Craig had several officers to investi- gate the matter, but as yet. they have failed to get clue as to where Ralen is, if living. Halen is not a drinking man and he is not quick to 1ake up with strangers. His sudden disappearance is shrouded in mys- tely, as his friends say that he has never been known to leave them without telling his intended destina- tion
