ANACONDA.

Frank Callan. the Mill creek dairy
man has returned from a trip to Ire
land where he has been on visit since
the 10th of last December. This was
Mr.. CalIan's first trip to the old coun-
tIv since leaving there twenty years
ago and he describes many changes
and improvements as having taken
place during that time.
Under the county councils act, which
gives the counties the control OF local
taxation. much Improvement has taken
place. The work Of fostering infant IN
dustries and agriculture has been IN
dertaken by the county governments
and has met with very encouraging re-
suits.
There is a strong feeling against
England by the people. who want the
government to compel the landloroS ~
sell out to their tenants.
At the late election held in County
Down the loyalist candidate was de-
feated by the candidate advocating
compulsory purchase, which is the hrst
time in two centuries that loyallst
candidate has ever been defeated IN
the county in question. This fact is
thought to be significant as indicating
that greater power and larger snare
in the affairs of government are COM
ing to be exercised by the people.
Among other things. Mr. Caiiaii
brought back with him three gold
6ncbes. The birds are native of ire
land. are good singers and can be

ANCIENT MINES.

Captain. N. NJ March lit is a
mighty poor New Mexican county that
cannot boast of one or two lost mines
within it's borders which are said to
have produced cabuIously in the days
of the Montezumas and added untold
riches to the Spanish treasure vaults.
Especially is this true of the southern
tier of counties, and Lincoln county is
nc exception. There are many tradi-
tions among the Mexicans of this coun-
to which have been handed down from
father to son regarding an old mine in
this section which was worked years
ago by the Spaniards. Many attempts
have been made to locate this mine,
but all proved futile.
This tradition was Unexpectedly re
vived few days since by the discovery
OF an old shaft on the upper Bonito,
which bears unmistakable signs of
being a very old mine The discovery
has had the effect of electrifying the
people of that part of the country and
as a result another rush similar to the
one experienced on the New Klondtke
has been inaugurated.
Near the shaft is an old tree bearing
strange inscription which no one has
thus far been able to decipher which
lends additional color to the belief that
it is an old Spanish or Aztec mine.
The day following the discovery of
the old shaft about fifty claims were
staked off in that vicinity. These were
located as placer claims, as it has de-
veloped that the dirt in that vicinity
washes out big values. This last dis
covery was made by the purest acct
dent.
The old shaft was discovered by a
man by the name of Jennings, who had
been prospecting in that vicinity for
several months past. No one as yet
has tried to enter the shaft, as it is
filed up with rocks and boulders.
