Prudencio, he was % years old and had
been, when an infant, an inmate OF a
founding hospital in San Sebastian.
He had formerly acted as farm hand,
but two years ago, being unable to find
work, and being in great distress. he
took to the forest. There he lived on
acorns, hazel nuts and birds eggs. Lit
tie by little he learned to use a sling
and the AK, and was able to kill deer
and sheep which had strayed. AS he
had no fire he ate the flesh Of these ami
nails raw.

DENVER's GOLDEN STREET.
The Macadam on Eighteenth Avenue
 Assays $3 to S4 Ton.

Denver is probably the only city in the world having streets paved with gold, says the Rocky Mountain News.
 Some day perhaps all the paved streets will be laid with a gold bearing rock. As it is Eighteenth avenue that most beautiful boulevard leading to the City park; Ogden street, from Colfax to Twenty fourth avenue; Grant ave nue, from Eighteenth to Twentieth ave- nue; Pennsylvania, from Tenth to Eleventh avenue, and several other blocks on Capitol hill have been laid with basaltic rock that carries an ap- preciable quantity of free gold.
 For two or three years the Western Realty company has been securing con- tracts for macadam paving. For that paving the company has been using a certain rock found at Valmont. three miles from Boulder. The rock belongs to the diabases or diorities, and is com monly known as trap or dike stone. Some time ago F. A. Stickney cf Long mont, president of the. company, had assays made of several samples of the rock, ard in every case it assayed $3 to s4 in gold.
 The rock is largely made up of felds- par and proxepe. and the ore in it is
