GOLD IN A DEADLY MINE.
The Valley of Death in Mindanao Elk
plored by an Adventurous
American.

The famous Valley of Death in the
island OF Mindanao, in the Philip
pines, has at last been compelled to
give up the rich treasure which for
ages 1t has successfully guarded by
its pail of death-dealing gases This
valley, says recent report, which,
true to its name, has dealt death to
many a venturesome searcher for the
precious metal, is located in the
mountain fastnesses Of the island
and, according % the theories Of sci
entists, 1t is the crater Of what was
once a great and violent volcano.
Volcanic gases of a most poisonous
nature still rise from the depths OF
the valley and hang over il like a
pail, never passing away, and many ma
tives who have attempted to go down
into the valley from the mountains
say that never before has any man
who ventured into its unknown
depths returned to tell of its secrets.
The distance across the valley is only
a few miles, but the bottom Of it Is
constantly concealed from view by
the dense cloud Of poisonous vapor
overhanging II.
An American named Rudy formed
a party at Manila, consisting OF him
self and two other Americans, and
employing three native guides, pro
ceeded to the mountains inclosing the
valley, where one of the Americans
with the guides we're left in charge
Of the outfit, while the other two en-
tered the valley with their heads
completely covered by an apparatus
similar to that worn by divers Car.
rying on their backs small tanks Of
compressed air for breathing pur-
poses so as to avoid inhaling the
deadly vapors, the men worked in
the valley for months. carrying sack
full after sackful Of gold bearing sand
and gravel up the mountain side.
This work was continued until both
we're almost worn out from the de-
pressing work and the fumes which
they we're forced to breathe por
tion of the time, but never once could
any one Of the natives be persuaded
to venture beyond the cutter circle Of
the poisonous gases.
Many Americans have made pre-
vious attempts to 90 down into the
valley, but none we're ever before
successful in doing much work there
For years natives living in the inland
exhibited large and beautiful nuggets
OF gold. which they claimed vera
taken from the edges OF Death valley,
but never have their statements been
substantiated until the success Of the
daring attempt made by Mr. Rudy's
party.
The recent undertaking Is consid.
cred as merely a trip Of investigation
and Mr.. Rudy. expects to return to the
islands next winter. taking with him
: complete apparatus for compress
ing air, when he will organize a party
suficiently large TO thoroughly ex-
plore and work all that portion OF the
valley which promises rich returns In
gold.

DEPORT INFORMANT.
Gamblers Seek Peabody Methods
In Mesa County.

Grand Junction. Dec. /. The FIRST
deportation to occur IN the history Of
Mesa county took place here last
night wbeu H. G. Wright. wss taken
to the depot by . crowd Of IS persons: |:
given ei5 and . ticket to San Francis
co and told to never show himself In
Grand Junction again. At the same
time = prominent minister Of Grand
Junction Was met ON the street ana
told to go home. which he did.
The affair grows out Of the prose-
cution Of gamblers. which Is being
conducted in this city at the present
time. Last week twenty -one infor-
nations were sworn out against ~
many men in this oity. Many Of
che informstions were signed by
Wright. Last night Wright WAS
met on the street by = crowd and
taken to the Pastime club, where
he confessed that he was being paid
for his work as private detective
by one OF the ministers Of Grand
Junction on behalf of the Law and
Order league. Wright. it is claimed,
double crossed the gamblers. in that
he had played with them during the
past few weeks and used the evidences
thus gained with which to prosecute
them.
After his confession the crowd held
q meeting and decided that Wright
must leave Grand Junction. They
accordingly took him to the depot;
purchased the ticket: put him on No.
8: gave him $l5 and told him to 60.
While they were conducting him to
the depot shey met the minister whom
ne had implicated in the confession
and the reverend gentleman was told
that he had better go home. which he
did.
The deportation caused considerable
talk In Grand Junction.

Find Time for Recreation.
Everybody has now settled down and the
work is being done without hitch or mis-
understanding In spite of the vast amount
of duty the soldier boys find time. for
amusement and recreation. Many take to
base ball and several games are often In
progress simultaneously. The enthusiasts
of the 1st and I'd Regiments have made NJ
two teams and several match games will
be arranged In addition to valuable prizes
the games will be of interest in that 1t will
be for the championship of the brigade.
1t Is interesting to note how carefully the
men of the cavalry and artillery look after
their horses. Their first thought after drills
or after long marches is of their horses,
and the comfort of the animals is looked
after before the men consider their own
needs An interesting feature of the rou-
tine in this portion of the camp is the taxi
ing the horses to water. The scene is a pic
tureSQue one, as all the horses OF pitteiy
troop file off the grounds in columns of
twos. one horse of each pair being ridden
bareback by soldier. The line moves
down the road at d trot to the river. where
the horses splash about with great content
while taking their fill of water.
Another attractive sight is the drill field
in the mornings, when it's broad area is
dotted with numerous divisions of troops
marching to and fro in varied evOlutiOns.
a mingling of sharp commands rises con-
tinuously and the visitor is at times al
most bewildered. Drill begins at o'clock
and continues for three hours. The first
hour is devoted to movements in company
formation. the second to drill battalions
and the third hour is taken up by regi-
mental drill. The officers of the general

at the same spot was made at an early
hour yesterday morning two miles south or

on the track and as the east-bound freight
train came along at high rate of speed
the engineer saw the obstruction just in

train to standstill. The prints of mans
bare foot has furnished the detectives with
an important clue. and 1t Is said that ar
rests will be made soon. Twice on the

walking horses till they got the fast

fix a walking gait, for it is more
habit than anything else. To see
what advantage in practice this was
at actual work l put one of my fast
walking teams to cultivating corn,
and also put in team that had not
been broken to the fast walk. |
watched the results for many days,
and found that my fast walkers did
at least one-third more cultlvating
than the ordinary walking team. 1t
was rather more than one-third than
a less number of rows cultivated in
the same field in favor of the fast
walkers. | am satisfied that the fast
walking gait can be secured with a lit
tie pains in breaking colts and young
horses, and in these times of higher
wages and scarce labor on the farm
it will pay any farmer to take the
pains I have done, in breaking his
young horses to a fast walking gait
