we'll went to Idaho from Texas to
engage in stock raising, and during
the summer months searched for
gold. While out along Monumental
creek two men met them one day
and told them that they would find
plenty of gold if they followed Mule
creek to it's source. This they did,
and after search of months, during
which time they found little gold,
they stumbled on an extinct crater,
and here is where the mining dis
trict, declared to be of fabulous rich
ness, is located. They took out $10,-
900 in gold and then sold their claim
to Col. w. H. Dewey, successful
mine operator, for 100000.
The peculiar character of the gold
deposits of this Thunder mountain
section is explained by Newton
Hibbs, the well-known mining: ex-
pert, as follows: 1.-THE theory is
that the gold was elected from the
craters of the district in the ordinary
form of natural salts, and that it
was precipitated at a high degree of
temperature by chemical agents. The
extensive overflow of the Thunder
mountain volcanic center was evil
IDENTIFY acted upon by the proper ma
tural chemicals to precipitate and
concentrate the values of an igneous
formation that was, perhaps, not ex-
ceedingly rich as it was elected from
the craters. Auriferous deposits, as
a general rule, are confined to vein
systems that must from their nature
be limited to assures and metamor.
phose contracts, but the Thunder
mountain ore bodies. are not confined
to walls. The naturalization oc-
Cured as the mountains were built
by the flow of molten matter from a
volcano. This lava forma ton covers
miles of the earth's surface in that
wild mountain region. Natures
process of concentration and precip-
itation evidently formed pay shoots
around the craters, as was the case
in the Telluride belts of Colorado,
only the gold in the Idaho Cripple
Greek is left free from the base salts.

gings on the backs of mules, and ii
has been working since the first OF
the year. A 10o-stamp mill is now

transported to the Thunder noun
tain mines and set up as soon as
ready The region covered by these
gold deposits is supposed to cover
about $4,000 miles. It is said to have
all the elements to make it a success,
plenty of ore, the most beautiful and
numerous streams Imaginable, lots
of wood and good, energizing cli-
mate. The Boise City (Idaho) News
reports that plans are being enter
tanned of pushing railroad through
from Salt Lake within so miles from
the heart of this great field. It is
predicted that few months will see
a big population there, and that it
will be second Transvaal.
While it is true that there are one
or two large interests holding the
most valuable claims that have vet
been discovered in the Thunder noun
tain fields, still it is the poor mans
mecca, and hundreds are focking to
the region, seeking wealth, and it is
in the efforts of these individual gold
seekers that the geatest interest
centers. AS high as $500 has been
taken out, it is said, by two men in
one day, one pounding decomposed
quartz, in which the free gold is held,
in hand mortar, and the other
panning it in a prospector's pan.
One hunded dollars day to the man
has been washed out of half-frozen
dirt in water melted from snow on
camp fires, small rockers being used.
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1902-05-09

That sort of story has served to
whet the appetites of gold seekers
wherever the news has penetrated,
and the pilgrimage to the region
with it's attendant privations, strug-
giles, disappointments and yet ever
hOpefulness Of final rich strike, has
been begun.
Prof. E. H. Mead, after careful
inspection of the district, says:
''Taking it as a whole, it is the most
wonderful mining country I ever ex-
pect to see. ! should judge the radi-
us of the mineral zone around
Thunder mountain is about IS miles.
The formation of the country is prin-
cipally granite and gneiss, together
with quartz, porphyry, ryolite and
trachyte. The granite is rich in
f1uorite, and in my opinion the
formation is favorable for the dis
covery of great deposits of gold
bearing ores.'
= State Mine Inspector Jacobs, of
Idaho, in his annual report of the
state has this to say: "What may
be termed the Thunder mountain free
milling district consists of a terri
tory of from five to Gig int miles in
length and approximately the same
in width, and is of an eruptive
formation, the rock being porphyry.
phono1ite and lava, and, while the
Dewey company claims are the only
ones that have to any extent been
developed, it is known that for q
mile on each side are claims showing
great values, among these being the
Sunnyside group, the property of the
| Caswells, and claims owned by H. E..
Taylor and M. F. Ely, and also 9TH
er claims. 1t is reasonable, there
fore, to expect that other mines of
great value will be found
And as Thunder mountain is but a
section of the vast mountainous por-
tion of Idaho, it may be considered
not at all chimerical to expect that
| the richness of Thunder mountain
may be duplicated by other discov-
Ferries. Custer, Idaho and Lemhi coun-
I! ties, through which the mountain

Some curious, effects are resulting
from this rise in the price of MEAT.
For one thing, it has made vegetables
more popular, and people who. d few
months ago, would have scorned u
strictly vegetarian diet, find that
they have been forced to it from cir
cumstances if not from choice.
1t is making a garden spot of Chi
cago.
1t has opened new market for the
purvenders of garden seeds,
Every householder with a two-by-
four back yard is cultivaiiny every inch
of space an indulgent landlord has
provided him with. Peas, beans and
potatoes have taken the place of flow
ers in the window boxes that so often
represent the. only gardening spot of
the Chicago resident.
Another thing this skyward flight Of
MEAT has done, it has caused a rise
in the rental value of suburban prom
erty, for the reason that suburban
houses usually have yards. and yard
means a place in which to grow the
necessities Of life. Some are even nro-
.vided with pigstys, or a small lot in
which cow may be fattened. and 50
the luxury of NEAT is possibility.
One heavy owner of suburban prop
erty said to me a day or two ago that
the renting season now just-closed
had. been the best he had ever expert
enced in the suburbs. The people
want, and must have, yards" he added.
In other words the people are turning
farmers from force of necessity.
The price of MEAT has forced rare
season upon the owner of suburban
property that he desires rent.

State Auditor lnstructs County Al.

The county auditor has received
from State Auditor Dunn circular
letter OF instructions relating to the
Anderson tax law which he ia sending
to county auditors in response to the
many inquiries regarding the appli-
cation of the law this spring. The
circular states that the sale of de-
linquent taxes sht ul be held rhe
second Monday in May IA provided
in the Anderson law, and the notice
Of sale should be given and the sale
conducted as provided by the law.
The certificates of sale are to be
issued as near as possible in the form
given in the new law.
The circular calls attention to sec-
ton 20 of the law which covers pro-
ceedings subsequent to tho sale in
May and allows the county auditor
to transfer the land bid in by the
state at any time to any persons, ex-
>cept officials connected with the pre-
vious proceedings, who shall pay the
state the amount for which the land
was bid in and II per cent interest.
Title 4 of the law will govern re-
demptions that may be made on land
sold for delinquent taxes. No sale of
unredeemed lands as provided for in
title 5 OF the law can take place, the
circular states, until after three years
have elapsed from the second Mon.
day in May 1902, and no county
auditor will be required to submit to
the state auditor the ann 1al list of
lands that have become the absolute
property OF the state, required by
the law, until July, 1905.

weeks time in one gold district
have had time to grow cold, rumors
of new discoveries in other places
are set afloat, and the mad rush for
the new gold field begins. That in
satiable, soul-devouring passion for
the yellow metal tempts men to face
any privation, and hazard any risk
if they can but make a strike and

fascination to the reading public in

and the adventures of the gold seek

or else losing their all.
Idaho is the latest section of the
