ROYAL ANGLERS.
King Edward VII. Said TO Be an Indif-
ferent Fisherman.

ferent Fisherman.
King Edward, it seems, is not a
very keen fisherman, not half SO
keen as his brother, the late duke Of
Edinburgh, or his sou, the prince OF
Wales, but it is quite mistake to
suppose that his majesty has never
taken any interest in fishing. AS a
youth, says the London Fishing Ca
zette, he fished in the Hig HANDS. and
when as prince Of Wales he rented
Abergeldie on the Dee he used to fish
for salmon now and then, though, as
old Donald Morgan says, his ajesty
was "not awful enthusiastic" Lord
Knollys, however, recently informed
MIR. Marston that the king on one oc-
casion caught 2l-pound salmon on
the Floors Castle water on the
Tweed
AS regards the queen, we have long
known that she is keen disciple of
Izaak Walton, as is also Princess Vic
toria, and they often fish together
when IN Scotland. Tier majesty has
killed salmon in Ireland, and so dead
ly is the Alexandra fly, named after
her, that its use is prohibited on many
waters. The prince of Wales is per-
haps, the keenest and best angler the
royal family has produced. and will
spend long DAYS on peeside enjoying
the sport. Then the Princess Louise,
duchess of Argyll, and the duchess Of
Fife are devoted to angling. When
in Canada Princess Louise had grand
sport with the salmon. The duchess
of Fife has had many good days sport
on the Dee, near Mar Lodge, and
spends much of her time with her
children in the enjoyment of her ia
vorite sport while the duke is deer
stalking.
Those jolly specimens of young
England, Prince Edward and Prince
Albert, sons Of the Prince of Wales
are, as Mr.. Marston tells us, both
keen on fishing, and each of them
caught nice lot of roach with the
fly recently; even little Princes:
Mary was successful in landing one

fact that they were able to send
trout to the king, who was then stay

them as great pleasure as the catch

taken as many as Is or 20 roach eacl

A TRAGEDY OF MINING.
Bones of Noted ProspectOr Found in the
DEVILS Playground.

DcNh AoJ 6AOHHN'
After 81 years of mystery the
strange disappearance Of Abner Lee,
the notorious old prospector who
discovered the famous Lee silver
mine, 20 miles northeast of San
Bernardino, Cal, has at last been
solved, says the San Francisco Ex-
amineF.
Lee was the most famous pros
pector Of his time. In 1865 he To-
Gated those claims known as the
Lee mines which subsequently
brought fortune of $2,000,OOO to
Gov. r. w. Waterman, of California.
Soon after discovering these rich sill
yer properties he disappeared into
the desert and was never seen again.
A great deal of excitement was oc-
casioned by Lees withdrawal from
the world, and it was suggested more
than once that he had been foully
done away with by inscriptions per-
sons who wished to gain possession
of his property. Others thought the
Piute Indians, who then raided the
desert, had killed him and burned the
remains.
Now the riddle has been solved and
the skeleton Of old Abner Lee, the
bones of his burros, his "washpan"
and an old mining pick bearing his
name on the handle have been found
in the Devils playground by jim
Moran, desert freighter plying be-
tween Fenner, on the Santa Fe road,
and Resting Spring Branch, at the
head of Death valley. The shifting
sands which covered Lee have given
back their dead, the miners are
cleared of obloquy and the bones of
the prospector have been given de-
cent burial on the crystalline shores
of Soda lake.
According to Lees story at the
time land subsequently verified,
there were vast lodges of surface ore
in sight of precisely the same quality
as the ore which from time to timehe
brought in on his burros. He was
very secretive about the location Oh
his mine, and those whom he took in
to his confidence we're under strict
pledge to reveal nothing.
Among these was r. w. Water
man, who afterward became governor
of California. Mr., Waterman wai
at that time struggling lawyer. Fol
ten years after Lees disappearance
nothing was heard Of the properties
; Then big expedition was organized
, in San Bernardino in search for tn,
| abandoned claims. Under the guild
ance of two prospectors, who claimed
to know something of the locality
= and who had heard where lay the lie
? silver, the party went almost imme
diately to the mines.
But upon their arrival they foun'

I had driven out to the claims in
o blackboard. For more than Is year
n Waterman held controlling inter
e est in the Lee mines, and it is est
J. mated that during that time NOR
q than $4,000, 900 in ore was taken ou
II Dark hints were cast in regard t
: Waterman by those who considere
: he must have known the localit.
: Now the finding of Lees body cleal
the air. The ex-governor has bee
r, dead several years. Since the depr,
u citation of silver bullion the mine
d have been idle, but the old story
Abner Lee is often repeated by I'll
desert prospectors.

WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed flourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes I'M
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget ii, and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
! rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment ano
that's the best treatment.
