Camps Of Fergus County. - - - - 81

The payment Of $25.OOO this week
as the regular dividend for the Ken
dali Gold Mining company brought its
total dividends up to $4,000. paid
within three years. says the Spokes-
man-Review. It is not four years
since Finch & Campbell bought a
heavy control in the Kendall from H.
T. Kendall on the basis of 100000 for
the property. Finch & Campbell put
the mine on a first-class basis, with
a magnificent equipment of machin-
cry and power. All of the improve.
ments were paid for from the net pro-
fits. Then the Finch & Campbell in
terests incorporated the Kendall Gold
Mining company with a capital Of 81
100000 in S. shares. The dividends
Of $73O,OO0 are in addition to the pro-
fits that went into equipping the
mines. Now a new body Of ore is be-
ing opened. The stock, which pays
about IA per cent annually, is selling
the $40O, 900 basis, made by Finch &
skiold, and the dividends alone have
reached nearly twice the investment.
That makes a return Of eight times
the original cost, all in eight years.
The mine is a gold property in Fer
gus county, Montana.

was sent into the southern country
three months ago by w. w. Vision

on the slope of a canyon where a
strong ledge outcrops for several hun

places standing from 10 to Is feet

Chicago, March 29.-The first ap-
parently adequate explanation of the
mysterious disappearance CT the boy,
Frank Ely Rogers and his aunt, Miss
Florence Ely, four years ago at Evans
ton, was made tonight to represen-
tative of the Associated Press by Jas.
C. Rogers. father of the boy. Though
simple and straightforward the truth
of the mystery, according to Mr.. Rog-
ers, is stranger than many fanciful
stories that have been written about
the case. Mr.. Rogers tonight said:
AT the time of the disappearance
my son Frank, like many boys OF his
age, was fired with a desire to run
away from home, and see life for him.
self. His aunt, sufferer from melan-
cholia, was about to be placed by us
in a sanitarium, place to which she
strongly objected. AS result OF these
circumstances, the two left home to-
gether and went to Buffalo. There
they separated, Miss Ely entering a
large store, apparently to do some
shopping, and leaving Frank outside.
She had previously given him small
sum of money. From that time un-
til now Frank has not see Miss Ely,
and neither he nor we know her
whereabouts. Frank, following out
his ideas of seeing the country, made
a living as best he could. and has
finally come home after many vicis-
STUDIES. This is the explanation OF
the mystery as learned by me from
my son. and Is apparently the whole
truth"

may aid in the solution Of the diff
ficulty: Wet the index and middle
fingers and apply them to the ball,
which is delivered from the hand
the same as a straight ball. The ball
will leave the hand with all the speed
of straight ball, but as it nears the
plate it will lost its force and take on
various shoots and bends. Just which
way the ball will shoot rests not with
the pitcher, but with the ball, as no
twirler has yet been able to control
its course.
