Special to The Journal.
SWanville, Mimi, Jan. 19.-The discov-
cry of gold on the Olaf Johnson farm In
the Pine Lake hills, south Of this village,
has caused everyone having land in the
vicinity to turn prospector, and as a con-
sequence some astonishing discoveries are
being made.
There can be no doubt that gold has
been found. However, not much can be
accomplished in the way Of proving the
extent Of the discoveries until spring
weather will permit Of more thoro inves-
LEGATIONS.
AS to copper and zinc, results have al
ready shown that there is no possible
chance of it being a mere trace of these
metals, but that they are to be found in
abundance in many parts Of the hill dis
trict. Many specimens of ore containing
these metals have been brought into town
this week and experts have found conclu-
sive evidence that large bodies Of ore are
hidden away near by.
A practical mining expert and mineral
ogist, who has been connected with several
large mining concerns at Cripple Creek,
came here last week to prospect. He is
especially encouraged with the promises
Of rich copper ore deposits and suggested
that a thoro search would in all probable
ity disclose an immense body of this min
eral. He came here in the interest of out
side capitalists who are interested in de-
termln1ng the mineral value OF INeSe Hills
and before leaving made known his in
tention of returning in the spring.
Several other expert prospectors have
been in the hills and SO far each one has
had words of encourage cement to offer or
his return. One said: Il have been a pros
pector for twenty years and have put In
much Of my time in many of the best anc
richest mining localities in the country
and have never yet found a place where
such large quantities of float ore are to be
picked up but what an examination has
! found the main bodies of ore to be close
at hand. OF course occasional pieces Of
| float ore will be found in most any locality
but that is no indication of the close prox.
| unity of beds of ore, but where you FIND
| a country strewn with rock Of all sizes
and every one of them fine specimen O.
| float ore, it is pretty good indication tina
| the source is not far off.
another strong indication that this
| country contains valuable ore beds is thu
| fact that all of our springs and streams

men who are interested. -

Mrs. Fleming alleges that her husband

tity, accusing her of unwlfely conduct:
She alleges that her husband is wealthy
and asks that the court decree that he

occasions his wife has called his mother.

he ever inflicted corporal punishment on

brought for this purpose.
