LOST CABIN MINE FOUND.
Wonderfully Rich Property Is Diseov-
cred Again After Lapse
Of Half Century.

Reno. New. Oct. 27.-After a search
extending over nearly fifty years. re-
sulting in the sacrifice of number Of
lives and several fortunes. Lost Cab
in" mine in Modoc county, California.
at last has been discovered.
The find was made by F. G. Hess. an
old resident of Candy, who arrived in
Alturas this week, bringing with him
some virgin gold, with samples OF ore
taken from the mine. which. he Says,
really is vein eigth feet across and
practically on the surface of the
ground. 1t is twelve miles north of
Alturas, in almost inaccessible moun-
tains. Remnants of the Lost Cabin"
still are in evidence. The cabin was
made of logs, plastered with mud. The
cooking utensils of the old prospector
who made the rich discovery also were
found.
Lost Cabin for many years has
been considered a myth, though many
attempts have been made to find it.
Nearly fifty years ago. when the Modoc
Indians were hostile, an old prospector
hohbled into the settlement one day
and displayed a quantity of gold. an
nouncing that he had found mine of
untold richness and had built a cabin
on it. With a portion of the gold he
purchased provisions and left. Two
men followed him. but he eluded them.
From that day TO this the prosIector
has not been seen, though his story
never has been forgotten. and Hess
find proves the story to have been
founded ON fact.

Mr.. Laudeman says:
Yes, l suffered from Kidney Trou-
