LEDGE
FOUND
AGAIN

The "Lost Soldier" ledge, which is
alleged to have been found and lost
half a century ago, then found at fro.
quent intervals ever since, has been
found again, if report be true, this time
on the west fork of Cow Creek. in this
county. 1t is stated that two men
named Benson have found some quartz
there that appears to be almost half
gold. They were inclined TO be some
what secretive as to the exact location
of the nowly-found ledge, but said that
1t was situated high up in the coast
range mountains, on n slope bordering
a small stream that is a tributary 20
one fork of the OSquille river. The
quartz displayed by the Bensons is Of
a rusty appearance and half decayed,
indicating that the gold could be sepa.
rated from the quartz by the most or.
dinary methods.
The men came out for supplies, and
will return to the scene of their new
discovery, They were not inclined to
discuss the probable extent of their
find, and it may only be pocket.
1t is thought possible that Beusons
have found the ledge that was discov-
cred by a party of soldiers so years
ago, body Of ore that has been much
sought The oldest settlers in Cow
Greek valley that are still living re-
member the little party of soldiers that
reached there one day, half starved,
their clothes torn in tatters by the
brush, and carrying chunks of quartz
that appeared to be half gold.-Glen.

RESCUE OF A CHILD SLAVE.

On one of her raids Miss Donaidine
Cameron head of the Presbyterian Chi
nese mission in San Francisco, whose
adventures are told in the current
Everybody s, followed a fve-year-ol
slave to Chinese camp in the foothills
Of the Sierras. She drove ten miles
by niaht with one Healey, a country
constable They hitched their horse
outside the gambling-house where the
girl was known to be and peeped
through n hole in the screen which
shielded the door
The child was sitting on a table,
rolling cigarettes for six gamblers
who were playing fantan. Overthrow
ing the screen and rushing on the
little girl, Miss Cameron snatched her
up and Healey held back the gamblers
at the point of his revolver. As they
backed through the door a Chinese
seemed to rise out of the ground He
drew a revolver and fred point blank
at Miss Cameron. The Chinese slow.
ness with a gum traditional in the
West, saved her for Healey had
time to strike 1t up so that the bullel
splintered the ceiling.
They drove ten miles to civilization.
and all the way Healey kept his re.
volver In hand against pursuit and at.
tack. That was probably Miss Cam.
eron's closest call.

ing, to come down town it was rain
ing, and because he had lost his UNI
brella the week before, he was com.
PEELED to borrow from his youngsters
a cheap affair which they used
Tor school purposes.
Don't you lose that, now" they
clamored after him reproachfully,
whereat Jones smiled grimly and rash
ly declared that if he did he would
r. compense them with a new umbrel-
la all around.
1t was still raining when Jones
stepped oTt for lunch that afternoon
but after an hour spent in chatting
with friends in number of resorts
the sky had cleared and not until he
returned to his desk did he notice
that he had left his umbrella behind
somewhere On such threatening
night and in such public places as he
had been it seemed hopeless to make
Inquiry for staple in such general
demand, burt spurred on by a mental
picture of his coming discontinue in
the presence of his youngsters, he des-
perately called up a place where he
had been slipping glass of wine with
a friend.
This is Mr.. Jones'" said he. "T
left an umbrella in your place about
an hour ago-a cheap affair with
wooden handle Will you kindly see
If it is still there?"
Eyes, it's here" came the reply a
moment latter. "You left it standing
in a corner of the room where you had
been sitting. Had straight handle,
didn't it?"
Now, Jones knew that he hadn't
been sitting in the place burt had drunk
his wine standing at the bar. More
over his umbrella had curved
handle. But more rain was due and
he didn't want to get caught in the
wet, and, if necessary he could ex-
plain matters and make restitution
later. So he told the man at the other
end of the phone to send up the UNI
brella to his office by messenger.
Having done this, it occurred to
Jones lldL ne Hight dS We'll uldhS
further search for his own parachute
so he called up the restaurant where
he had eaten.
Eyes, we have an umbrella answer
ing your description" came the re-
Spouse, and we'll send 1t right up."
In the elation over his success a
brilliant idea hit Jones and he grew
Waggish. On such night wasn't It
probable that umbrellas had been left
by their owners in nearly all Of the
downtown restaurants? And wouldn't
almost any of them fit the description
of Jones wooden handle affair? The
game was worth trying anyhow.
SO he called UP a score Of eating
houses where he was known as a pat
ron The net result of his inquiry was
nine more umbrellas in all shades OF
color and previous condition of servi-
trnie. but every one Of them better
than his own.
