A TRAGEDY OF MINING.
Bones of a Noted PrOspector Found In
the Devils Playground.
San Francisco Examiner.

San Francisco Examiner.
After~ thirty-seven years of mystery the
strange disappearance of Abner Lee, the
notorious old proSpector who discovered the
famous Lee silver mine, seventy miles
northeast Of San Demanding, Cal, has at
last been solved.
Lee was the most famous prospector of
his time. In 1865 he located those claims
known as the Lee mines, which subsequent
ly brought fortune of 100000 to Gov
ernor X. w. Waterman, of California Soon
after discovering these rich silver prop
critics he disappeared into the desert and
was never seen again. A great deal of ex-
element was occasioned by Lees with
drawal from the world, and 1t was sug-
gested more than once that he had been
foully done away with by INSCRIPTIONS
persons who wished to gain possession of
his property. Others thought the Piute In
dams, 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
pick bearing his name on the handle have
been found in the Devils Playground by
Jim Moran, desert fighter 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 CT obloquy, and the
bones of the prospector have been given
decent burial on the crystalline shores of
Soda lake.
According to Lees story at the time (and
ILLS NdS SUBSEQUENTLY tUeTe were
vast lodges of surface ore in sight of pre-
cisely the same quality the ore which
from time to time he brought in on his
burros. He was very secretive about the
location of the mine, and those whom he
took into his confidence were under strict
pledge to reveal nothing.
Among these was r. W. Waterman, who
afterward became Governor of California.
Mr.. Waterman was at that time a strug-
Cling lawyer For ten years after Lees
disappearance nothing heard of the
properties. Then big expedition was or
ganized in San Bernardino TO search for
the abandoned claims Under the guidance
of two prospectors who claimed TO know
something of the locality, and who had
heard where lay the Lee silver, the party
went almost Immediately to the mines
But upon their arrival they found Water
man guarding the property with Win
chester rifle. He had been in possession
for two hours. He had driven out to the
claims in a blackboard. For more than fif-
teen years Waterman held a controlling
interest in the Lee mines, and ii is esti-
mated that during that time more tnan
81 GOO 600 in ore was taken out.
Dark hints We're cast in regard to Water
man by those who considered he must have
known the locality. Now the finding of
Lees body clears the air. The Ex-Governor
has been dead several years. Since the
depreciation of silver bullion the mines
have been idle, but the old story of Abner
Lee is often repeated by the desert pros
pectorS.

Dowie's Character and Evolution.

DR.. ]. NJ. Buckley, in October Century.
His consuming ambition, Unsuitable love
of power, intense self-consciouSness, grasp
on money and property, vigorous suppress
sion of individuality, commercialism, lux
urious way of living, and wholesale en-
trance Of his Zion into real-estate specula-
ton, and manufacturing contrast strangely
with John the Baptist and with Elijah the
great prophet Reason must first be para
lyzed, faith drugged, and this done, 1t
would still seem too large and abnormal a
conception for open-mouthed creduity to
believe that the Christ of the New Tesla
ment should choose the evolver and center
of such fiambuoyant mixture OF flesh and
spirit to be the Restorer and His special
forerunner. If Dowie believes ii, he is in
the moonlit borderiand of insanity, where
large movements of limited duration have
sometimes originated. If he believes il not
he Is but another impostor.
The probable genesis Of the Dowie of to-
day Is this: Beginning his public career
with the sincerity and simplicity OF the or
binary Christian, he passed into fanaticism
made claims which he believed but con-
fronted with failures, he sophisticated his
conscience and reason to explain them
Lured by ambition, self-confidence and love
of power into great enterprises which made
large sums of money necessary TO him. he
was obliged to manipulate men, and his
shrewdness became cunning. Intoxicated by
increasing prosperity, he has come, without
Divine authority, to believe himself Gods
special messenger. In that character he
judges, denounces, condemns all who do
not accept him, and rules his followers
with a rod of iron.

The GOldenrod.

The flower Is fuller OF the sun
Than any our pale North can show;
1t has the heart of August won,
And scatters wide the warmth and glow:
Kindled at summers midnoon blaze,
Where gentians OF September bloom,
Along October's leaf-strewn ways,
And through Noyember's paths of gloom.
Herald of autumn's reign, II sets
Gay bonfires blazing round the field;
Rich autumn pays in gold his debts
For tenancy that summer yields.
Beauty's slow harvest now comes on,
And promise with fulillment won:
The hearts vast hope does but begin,
Filled with ripe seeds Of sweetness gone.
Because its myriad glimmering plumes,
Like a great armys stir and wave;
Because its gold in pillows blooms,
The poor mans barren walks to lave;
Because its Sun-shaped blossoms show
How souls receive the light of God.
And unto earth give back that glow
1 thank Him for the goldenrod.

 Notwithstanding the heavy rain that fell here yesterday and last evening, the dust was flying to-day just the same as if the storm had given us the go by and the sprinkling carts had to make their rounds as usual
 A small boy was amusing himself aorund one of the iron arches of the bridge over the Mad River on South Main street last evening, when he lost his balance and fell to the ground, in ficting an ugly gash over his left tenn pie. He was picked up and taken into the office of UT Dwyer.
 Chief Egan's blue coated guardians of the public peace performed valuable service about the green to-day. They pulled nobody, but they almost scared the wits out of everybody that attempt ed to tread on the grass, and as con sequence the park looks as good to-day as ever. It was big job to save it and the officers deserve credit for their efforts.

ARE YOU A CRANK

on what you drink? Do you dearly relish a cup of good coffee? If you do, we want to meet just such cranks. It's a pleasure to sell Tea and Coffee to people who are particular as to the quality they want; and why? Because when you sell them the good kind they are pleased and they con- tinue to buy as long as you give them the good quality, and when you glve them an inferior quality they give you the cold shoulder and who q blame them? We sell three different blended Coffees at 25c per pound; either one will suit anyone who wants cup of good Coffee; mind you, all three will not suit you, but either one of the three will surely tickle your palate and you'll never know what the quality is until you try them. Golden Java, Brass City or Broadway blend are our leaders at 25c per pound. Say, did you read Sundays N. I. papers and see where the span ish noblewoman, Dona Maria Francls- ca O'Reilly de Camara. Countess of Buena Vista, (she should drop the O'Reilly) is suing a U. S. soldier be- cause be wouldn't let her slaughter and sell all the cattle needed for con- sumption in Havana? This woman (and they call her a noblewoman
 doesn't know what she's missing by living in Cuba. Why the dickens doesn't she come to the United States and join the beef trust or the Water bury ice trust? She'll make fortune upon fortune and she'll have the law on her side of the fence. But, say; she is the kind of a crank we wouldn't want coming to our store for good Cof- fee; we'd be tempted to roast her ev- cry time we got the chance, we have such a burning love for these trusts and monopoiies, don't you know, at
