FORM OUT THE DEPTHS.


Way back in 1850 three men pene-
trated that part of Colorado known
as Gunnison county-an American
named Hayes, an English sailor named
Scales and Spanish Indian whose

They found a promising spot and
went into camp on the margin of
little stream, where the sand at first
showed gold. The find wore out.
Old miners never go into the noun
tains with a party Of three. Harmony
Is impossible in such group. The
Englishman and the Spaniard wanted
to abandon the mine. The American
would not.
One morning all three went to the
shaft. Hayes and Horace descended
and Scales remained above to work
the windlass. In the course of an
hour Horace made some excuse to re-
turn to the surface. and while he was
gone Hayes filled the bucket. 1t was
pulled up, but when, turning to his
pick again, hearing peculiar noise,
he looked up to see the rope ladder
also being withdrawn.
At that his veins ran ice, and his
peril flashed before him as clear as
day. He shouted his alarm. The fiat.
sinister face of the Englishman peer
ed over the edge.
"Bawl away, lad," he called, taunt-
ingly; well gins summat to bawl
about"
God! you are not going to leave
me here?" yelled the miner.
The Spaniard appeared at the verge
with chunk of rock in his hand.
You say you no leave this mine," he
said; yer, good, you stay in him."
Don't throw the rock" laughed
Scales: It was bit Of satanic cruelty

LA FoLLETTE,s OPINION
Is That Roosevelt is the Only Man to
DefeattW, j. BRYAN.

Defeat.W. j. Bryan.
The question has been frequently
put, lis La Toilette of Wisconsin a
demOcrat?" and opinions differ as to
the sincerity of the republican prin-
ciples the aggressive senator from the
Badger state claims to stand for. A
recent interview with La Toilette pub
ltshed In the Oshkosh Northwestern,
Wisconsin newspaper of recognized
reliability and republican to the core,
] Is of interest and may tend to throw
light upon the question of the politi-
cal complexion of the now controlling
figure in Wisconsin politics. The in
terview follows:
Senator r. M. La Toilette, who re-
turned from Washington Sunday eve
ming, left again at o'clock last eve
ming on a short round of Chautauqua
lectures. He is loud in praise of
President Roosevelt.
He is doing splendid work." he
said. He may be creating new prero-
gatives, but with SO many others vio-
lating theirs. the people will uphold
him while he is fighting their battles.
AS things stand in this year 1905,
Roosevelt is the only man who could

conditions may change"
Asked II he would assist Governor
Cummins of Iowa, Senator La Toilette
said: II am deeply interested in the
success of Governor Cummins and
while my addresses are in a way nom
partisan they will be along the line
of Governor Cummins' views, and to
that extent may be construed as help
ing him."
Senator La Toilette believes there
will be no tariff revision till the $685.
sion of 1907-S. "The tariff will be one
of the issues in 1905" he says, "but It
will be impossible to do much legisla-
ton gone over from this session. am
quite we'll satisfied with the work ac-
complfshed at this session." Mr.. La
Toilette said. I'm general results It
has been one of the most important in
the history of the country. Much of
the credit Is due to President Roose-
welt for his courage, patriotism and
insistence on the enactment of the leg
islation he and the country demanded.
l must say, however, that what was
done was largely done grpdglngly and
that many of the measures that went
Through at the close were unsatisfac-
tory because due consideration was
prevented, through dilatory tactics by
hostile interests at the opening of the
session"

Colonel Peck Took the Job to Save

was up to old Governor Humphrey to

this occasion made Iowa and Indiana

carriage late at night and told the
driver to land him at the home Of
George X. Peck. who at the time was
general counsel of the Atchison, To-

IN bed. but the governor pounded on
tne door until the attorney stuck his
head out OF the window in snow

there.
The governor quickly told. With

Practically all the raw cotton is iu!-

LOST MINES.
Romantic Stories of the Abandoned
Treasures of Mexico.

Among the rich mines worked by the
Spaniards was the Tarasca, in Sonora
of which Humboldt writes so fascina-
tely and Ward and other historians
mention favorably. The history of Ia
rasca, says Modern Mexico, is one of
evil deeds, of duplicity. of theft, of
greed and all of the base passions in
cited by the love of gold. The mine
was worked long before the Spaniards
arrived in Mexico and the gold and Sill
yer fashioned into ornaments by the
aborigines. A family in Guaymas has
necklace of flying fish purchased
from Pima Indian chief who stated
that the metal was dug from Tarasca.
The mine was worked by various
Spaniards and later acquired for the
crown of Spain. 1t was extensively
worked, barring certain periods dur
ing the Apache wars, until the epoch
of the French Intervention. when the
shafts and tunnels. are said to have
been concealed by the administrator,
Don Juan Moreno, an Imperialist. who
was forced to seek safety in fight. AZ
ter the restoration of peace Tarasca
was looked for in vain, and to the pres
ent time no one is certain of it's loca-
ton. though the mine now known as
Ubarbo is believed to be the Tarasca.
UbarbO had been extensively worked
when rediscovered years ago and the
shafts and tunnels concealed under
earth and brush. Rich pillars of ore
were found in the drifts, and the mine
corresponds with the description IN
the archives of the American Consul
late at GlVymas.
But tn lest nine about which ira
ditiOn gathers thickest is TaiOpa, sup
posed to be located in the Shahuaripa
district. In Sonora. Little documentary
evidence exists to prove Taiopa's reali-
ty and that has evidently been manu-
featured by inscriptions manipula-
tors. A wealthy Mexican gentleman
recently made trip to Madrid, and
after minute search, at great expense,
found absolutely no data to prove that
such mine was worked for the crown
Of Spain and no reliable data in the
Mexican archives or elsewhere to
prove that such a mine was ever
known. But quite as trustworthy as
most written documents are the ira
ditions gathered from the Pima Ind
ians. They stoutly maintain that Tai
opa exists, and few claim to know its
locality. Small quantities of ore are
occasionally sold at the mountain min
ing camps, and all attempts to follow
the Indians to the spot where it is
found or bride them to reveal it have
failed. Wanting but little in addition
to the corn they grow, they are imbued
with superstition that if they reveal
the locality of mine they will instant
ly drop dead. To one unacquainted
with the Indian character this state
ment may seem incredible, but any
prospector or miner in the Sierra Mad
re will affirm it's truth. Large sums
of money have been offered the Pimas
to tell where the lost mine is. They
scorn money, and the only open Sc
same Is mescal, by the liberal use of
which the Indian may be made to dis
close, many things, but SO far he has
held inviolate his vow to reveal to NO
man the famous Taiopa.
