driving along the mountain this
side of the water trough, and
where there is below the road a
very deey rocky hollow, some
kind of a wild animal darted
across the road in front of his
spirited Ham bletonian mare,
which frightened her. In mo-
ment she had plunged down over
the high EN- bankment taking with
her the Doctor, buggy, and Ian
tern, crashing through fallen tree
tops, over rocks, logs, and through
underbrush. The buggy was soon
upset and the doctor managed to
free himself from the tangle, but
his lantern had been extinguish-
ed and lost. AS soon as he could
gather himself up, he went to his
faithful little mare, when he found
her doubled up under the buggy
and dead. The Doctor made his
way to New Grenada the best he
could, gathered force of men
anil went back, and with their as.
sistance got the wrecked buggy
back to the road but he regrets
worry much the loss of the faithful
animal. The doctor escaped with.
out. serious injury.

RICH GOLD ORE.
Times in Sangre de Cristo Range
Prove BOnanZas.

Q. G. Frazier, who brought a
carload of ore here from the Sangre
de Cristo range Wednesday to be
treated by the Rocky Mountain
smelter, today received returns on
the same. The rock carries $l4l 80
in gold This test was not made
from picked samples, but was taken
from the entire width of the vein.
The mine is but twenty-five feet
deep and the character of the ore
is the same across the width of
the lead.
Mr.. Frazier also brought two
samples of rock from as many
mines owned by III. l. Hopkins of
Crestone. One sample assayed
Sl56 in gold, 54 ounces silver and
5 per cent copper The other car
ried 1920 in gold, A s ounces of
silver and 90 of a per cent copper.
These returns will create SEN
sation in the San Luis valley min
ing circles and will undoubtedly
cause quite little active work in
prospecting to be done. Both
gentlemen will Immediately make
shipments to the smelter here.

LOOKED INTO GUN AND DIED.
Old Plan of Holding Match and
Looking Down Barrel Proved Fa-
tai to viii johnson.

Valdosta, Ca. Dec. S1.-A peculiar
accident occurred here this evening
about O'clock and as a result young
negro named Will Johnson, from the
upper part of the county. had part
of his head blown off. 1t was the old
story of the unloaded gun. Johnson
went to the gun shop of l.. H. Strum
TO trade for a gun and was shown an
old Misunderstanding weapon, a young
man named Kirk McLendon waiting
on him. The negro examined the gun
and then blew into the barrel to see
if the tubes were open. One barrel
was alright, but the other was closed.
McLendon tried his lungs on the closed
barrel and thought air passed through
it. To be certain, however, a plan was
adopted which is usually called forth
vat such times. That was to hold
match below the closed tube and watch
the blaze. McLendon held the match
and Johnson blew down the barrel. An
explosion followed and the negro died
instantly.
