HUNTING LOST MINE.
Party Of Pr~ospectors Think They Have
Found Adams Mine.

FROM the LOrQSDGrg Liberal.
The long lost and much hunted
Adams diggings have again been found
and this time it undoubtedly is the
real thing. The circumstances sur
rounding the r~e-discovery shows it en-
tirely genuine. 1t will be remembered
that in the seventies a man named
Adams with a companion, started from
Arizona prospecting. They travelled
eastward and finally at the mouth of a
creek which flowed into a canyon they
found a wonderful deposit of placer
gold. with a little digging nuggets
were taken out like digging potatoes.
Adams and his companion were STAN
peded 6y the Indians, the companion
was killed and after many days Adams
reached a settlement, where he told
his wonderful story of the rich deposit
at the mouth of this creek. The only
landmarks he had were w large
butteS standing near Many parties
have zone out hunting for these lost
Adams diggings. but never were able
to find them. Adams died a poor man
never finding his own. nor making an
other stake. A couple of weeks age
a party of men, consisting of f. F
Heath, II. Wright, p. A. Endicott, A. ID
Stout and f. l.. Truitt, none of whom
had ever heard of Adams and his los
diggings, started out from Lordsburl
to go TO S~carborough's ranch in the
Burros, near which, they had heard
was some placer ground. They drove
north into the Burros, lost their road
= and never got 10 Scarborough's. Now
any one acquainted with the history o
mining knows. there is no better wa.
to find a bonanza than to get lost. The,

KING

From the Miner.
Martin Jeminez, one OF the old tim.
ers of this county, died at a hospital
in Los Angeles. The old man had been
in poor health for some time and
through the kindness of Sheriff Lovin
was enabled to go to the hospital. He
owned considerable mining property in
this county, but was unable to work
any of IL for several years. He was one
of the most kindly of men and his
many friends will regret his demise.
Last Monday the stockholders OF the
Kingman Ice, Illuminating and Water
company met in the town of Kingman
and elected the following officers for
the ensuing year: w. II. Taggert. o. d.
and Greedy Clack, A. Ven Mehr and II.
II. Watkins. Immediately after the
adjournment of the stockholders the
board of directors met and elected the
following officers for the ensuing year:
w. II. Taggert. president; o. ID. Clack.
vice president; H. II. Watkins. treas
eren; A. Ven Mehr, secretary and gen
eral manager. The property of the

TUCUMCARI A BUSY TOWN.
Takes Name From Mountain of Same
Name.
From Topeka Journal.

From Topeka Journal.
The town of Tucumcari derived it's
name from the mountain of that name
that forms the setting in the back
ground against which the town is seen
by the passengers who pass through
the place on the train.
Mt. Tucumcari is a peculiarly shaped
peak standing clear and distinct, quite
alone and separate from the other
mountains of the series. Mt. Tucum-
carl is not wonderful because of it's
height, for it is not a tall peak, but it's
distinction comes from the fact that ii
stands alone n the formation of the
peak is so evenly regular. Ii is al
most perfectly round, and the sides
form a gradual slope until they nearly
reach the top, where a plateau seems
to be surmounted by another mountain
peak of nearly the same shape as the
base. The second peak has the same
clear and regular features as the bot
tom part. The top OF the peak is per-
fectly level and embraces an area of
perhaps acres. The top is stud
ded with pine trees and other timber.
The mountain peak can be clearly
seen from the trains.
The town is a thriving little place of
from four to five hundred population.
1t is the supply center now for the vast
sheep and cattle country surrounding
the town. The railroad invading that
section has done way with the neces-
sity of freighting goods and provisions
across country, and already a large
wholesale house is doing a lucrative
business. A lumber yard, hotel, and a
large wholesale and retail Quitting
store and wool storage warehouse. to-
gether with the many saloons and few
little stores comprise the business Sec
ton of the town. II is a noticeable fact
that although Tucumcari is a younger
city than several other towns along
the line and that il is regarded as the
toughest town along the line. il has
more painted surface in evidence in
proportion to its size than any of the
other frontier towns.
The residence portion of the city is
scattered. The houses are not built
near each other and the entire town
site probably cover an area of about
thirty acres.
The town has any number of saloons
and a concert hail where each evening
the cowboys ride in from the plain and
: drink and smoke while listening to the

The Mines on SUNDAY.

Messrs. Schoonmaker and Bailey
went out to the Tecolote mining dis
trict yesterday and brought back a
few specimens of a specially high
grade. Accosted by friends today they
uncorked a few small cold bottles of
e~ffervescent enthusiasm. Bailey is re-
ported to have a mine out there that
runs a little better than one hundred
per cent, but he did not bring it with
him. A great many people kept the
roads to the mining district hot all
day yesterday. The day was fine for
travelling and the beauty of the snow
capped mountains rising to meet the
eye on every hand added to the en-
thusiasm of the p~rospectors.
E. u. Condit has developed into a
full fedged mineral man. He came
in from his claim today with the rust
of ages on his tanned countenance
and shoes. H~e>doesn't know as yet
whether he has a bonanza or not. This
afternoon he returned with fresh zeal
and groceries.-Las Vegas Optic.
