this story of Bacons college days:
when we were all in college to-
gether the roller skating craze was at
its height. A crowd of boys went to
ring one night to see the fun. Bacon
was of the number. He had never been
on roller skates in his life. After he
watched the people circle around for
a few minutes he said in a half dis
gusted tone that any one could be

He started off pretty wabbly Still he
managed to keep going. He was a big
fellow, and he seemed even bigger then
as boy than he does now as a man.
His progress was pretty slow, but after
awhile he got nearly around the rink,
and we thought surely that we had lost.

In seeking answers to such questions
as the age of the human race scientists
have recourse to the rocks and caves
which contain records of prehistoric
man. Some important discoveries of
this nature have recently been made
in the Pyrenees of Spain. The writer
and scientist Garrett z. Serviss has
described these discoveries by saying
that las far as the evidence now in
hand is able to inform us, man was a
witness of only the last glacial inva-
sion of Europe. If he saw the earlier
ones, all traces of his presence have

81 let a contract yesterday to push
our lower tunnel ahead several hundred
feet, and intend to put large force Of
men to work in our Slopes taking down
ore which will be shipped to the Hum
boldt smclter,' said +. s. Campbell,
one Of the owners Of the Express mine,
to a Journal Miner man yesterday.
The lower tunnel, he said, is now
in a distance of $50 feet, and it taps the
ledge at a depth of $50 feet from the
apex of the vein. The ore streak Is
from two TO two and half feet wide,
twelve inches Of which is shipping ore
that will average from $40 to $50 per
ton. The remainder is milling ore
which will pay well. In addition TO
this tunnel there is also another tun.
mel on the ground and n shaft about
20 feet in depth, both of which are in
ore of n good grade.
Continuing further, he said that he
was making preparations to build a
ear track from the mouth Of the tun'
mel to the railroad station at Poland,
which is only two thousand feet distant
around the mountain, and that as soon
az this was completed he would have
some ears of a large capacity built in
which to transport the ores from the
tunnel to the rnilroad track, where a
chute would be built in such manner
that the railroad ears could be loaded
from it with ore almost automatically.
Besides the Express mine he and his
associates are the owners of another
claim on the same ledge or vein. Both
claims are favorably situated for min
ing purposes from m economical
standpoint, the topography Of the
ground being such that the vein ear

which do not demand the purchase OF

THINK sALToN SEA COVERS PEG
LEO MINE.

A party Of four bold prospcctors from
Williams, Ariz., who have returned from
sn adventurous trip into the great de-
sert Of southern California, have decid.
ed that the famous Peg Leg mine In
the search for which hundreds of
brave gold seekers have lost their lives
from thirst and starvation, I. buried IL
the depths Of the great Saltoh seai
More money and lives have been
sacrificed in the hunt for this fabu-
lousy rich mine than for any other in
the southwest, and many tale Of adj.
venture and romance has been written
about it.
The Williams prospcctors are posi-
tive that the Salton sink, the great in
land ocean which has appeared in the
desert, has engulfed the treasure Of
the Peg Leg and that it will never be
found unless the Salton disappears as
mysteriously as il came.
Bert Adams, +. X. Nellis, Tom Bar.
ney and John Nclls left Williams ear
ly last December completely equipped
with wagons, teams. saddle horses and
supplies, and penetrated into the heart
cf the desert in San Bernardino and
San Diego counties inCalifornia. They
believed they had clcw to the where
abouts of the famous treasure and the
fact that the desert is covered with
the bleaching bones of many who have
| started out on the same errand did not
deter the argonauts.
Skirting the present coast of Salton
sea, the prospectors finally got around
the south side Of the big lake, and
they spent the most Of their time from
then until starting for home few days
ago prospecting the region between
Salton and the Mexican line.
The party made its way to the Colo
RADIO by way Of Congress Junction and
Quartzite, and crossed the river ut Ehr'
enburg, from which point the old
anscontinental Butterficld stage road
was followed to Salton.
The explorers had the region care
fully mapped, but found their course
led to point which is now far out in
the bottom Of the Salton, and il probab
" covered with fifty feet of water.
