Stranger discoveries have been

ports received, gold bearing sand hiss
been discovered at a depth of about
100 feet from the surface. OF the rich
ness Of the sand, and whether it will
pay to work, depends upon the results
of assay and the condition of the coun.
try roundabout, the means of washing
and other conditions. There have been
several places in the western part OF
the state where color has been

quantities. Whether or not there is

THE TYPHOON.
A Chinese Legend of the Origin Of
This Fierce Storm.

This very odd bit is by a Chinaman:
"A little schoolboy while on his way
to school one day picked up what
seemed to him a small white pebble.
He put it into his pocket. 1t proved to
be a snake egg. and i'm time through
the heat of his pocket 1t Matched out a
young reptile.
"The boy fell in love with 1t and ear
ried it from day to day to school with
him and fed it with Il part of his own
lunch until it became too big to be car
ried. when he made n nest for 1t at
home.
But one day it suddenly grew to
enormous size, and upon the boys ar
rival home he was frightened to death.
"When the monster saw what he had
done he was sorely afflicted and re-
fused to be fed, but Immediately put on
mourning by turning his color from
brown to pure black. He crawled be-
side the grave of his departed friend
and lay there for seven days and
nights.
"At the completion of the seventh
night he came back to his late home.
but the hoy's old mother was SO en-
ragged at him for killing her only son
that she picked up an ak and chopped
his tail off.
with a fearful scream and a lash of
his bleeding tail he felled the house
and made his way to the Moo Soon San
mountains, where he never shows him
self but once a year. just about the
time when he lost his tail, to come out
and make trouble for the people by Gre
ating storms called the typhoon. This
he does to square himself for losing his
valuable tail"

From all that appears of record IN
the insurance swindle, for which three
men have been found guilty at Fargo,
the farmers of the state who paid their
good money into the company were
defrauded, their losses were not paid
the money went into the pockets Of
the three men directly and possibly
into some other pockets indirectly
and whatever punishment may be met
ed out to these men or to any other
men who %conspired to wreck the com
pany is richly deserved. Long terms
in the penitentiary for men who deem
it legitimate to swindle formers fight
and left with rotten hail insurance
will act wholesomely as a deterrent.
Developments in the case have beer
sensational to some degree, and In.
timations that the swindlers were hand
in glove with a former state insur.
mace commissioner serve to shame ev.
cry honest citizen in the state.
