mine. discovered at $3.50 Thursda,
morning the bodies OF l.. A. Thompson
and q. W. Mather. the officials of the
Tempesi,Apex Mining Company. who
have been missing sine. Thursday OF
last week.
The men were lying side by side
with their faces toward each other.
near the breast OF the tunnel. which Is
located In u suieh In tn. mountain.
half mile northwest OF the Mickey
BTeen mine.
stead of being constructed straight and
level. followed a vein of or. and in.
clined into the mountain.
Tn. men sought shelter here from
th" cioudburst last Thursday. They
had no sooner entered the tunnel than
they were followed by torrent Of wa.
ter which swept down the suich and
was dashed Into III. tunnel by the
dump. which served an wall.
Dirt. rock and fallen timber were
packed by III. force OF the water into
the tunnel. the portal Of which was
completely closed up when work was
commenced clearing out the rock and
dirt.
Indications are that the men lived
perhaps twenty minutes after entering,
and by taking the risk OF drowping or
huGocaiins. they might have, saved
their lives by remaining In the open
country.
The force Of the rushing water
packed the debris against the two men
until the entire tunci was blocked.
Mnthcr. before dying. took on his
blouse. rolled II under his head and
wrapped n handkerchief around his
head. which was cut and bruised. lie
had also commenced uniacinE his
boots.
Thompson had bruises ON his ict,
arm and also on portions OF his body.
The hands Of the two men were shriv.
clcd up by constant contact with the
water. but their bodies were no,
bloatcd. They were left undis,urbcd
until the arrival OF the coroner.
Water marks are noticeable even to
the roof OF the tunnel and the men
were instantly doomed the moment
they sought refuge In what seemed to
be place OF safety.
Upon hearing the news. Coroner
kincaid left for the mine. The bodies
OF the men were 'snnkcd" out of the
debris and were brought TO ouray this
afternoon. No inquest will be held.
The tunnel where the bodies were
found were worked last summer by ..
J Davis and Malcolm Downcr OF this
city. and has remained idle since then.
Ofhcials OF the mine. upon the advice
OF c. ii. Wilcox. superintendent OF tho
mill. started n force OF men clearing
up the tunnel ms n last resort and did
not expect to ind the bodies there ut
all.

PHILOSOPHICAL POINTS.

The fatted calf never loves the
prodigal son.
Truth never runs around asking
people to believe 1t.
Alas. that fools are prosperous. Is
It their penalty or reward?
How many OF us in listening to the.
tomtoms forget the violins?
To think an original thought is to
take n step nearer the divine.
People who need to be continually
propped up are not worth the prop.
When men become suddenly good
they should be executed Immediately
1t is easier for some people to ~
lieve the impossible than the pdV
sible.
Before It was thrown down. the
Golden Calf had n son. and 1t Is still
mooing around the world.
1t is self.evident that to success
fully fathom the motives OF men one
must be man himself. To an idiot
Ito lunatic-all men are either
idiots or lunatics.

FIND FREDDIE MUTH
Kean, Kidnaper, Captured at
 Pistols Point.
4 WRETCH DESPERATE FOR MONEY
Little Boy, Found Unharmed. Was lmprisoned Six Days In vsoant Houses ut PhiladeIphia-Was
 Threatened With Death.

PHILADELPHIA, June 19.-Fred-
 die Muth, the seven-year-old son of Charles Muth, the jeweler of 1632 Co
 lumbia avenue, who was kidnapped last Tuesday, was discovered by the police safe and sound in vacant house at
 427 North Sixty-second street with
 John Kean, real estate dealer, who confessed to having Kidnapped the child.
 Kean was captured after chase by Special Policemen Bale, Clarke and
 Duffy. Bale fired several shots after
 the fleeing man.
 To Mrs. J. T. Wilson of 424 Horton street, whose house backs up directly against the North Sixty-second street house. belongs the credit of notifying the police ofsthe boys presence in the house.
 The boy looked well, but was dirty and unkempt When the police entered the house they found the boy laying on the floor with his head on his school books, which he had with him the day he was taken from school. He seemed to the police to have been .'doped" With Kean he was put in patrol wagon and hurried to the city hall for fear of mob violence.
 Driven by the commission of com paratively small offense to the heinous crime of child stealing, Kean occupies { cell in the central police station with i life Imprisonment staring him in the | face. Replete with dramatic incidents from its inception, the climax of the abduction was sensational to a degree. The kidnaper was taken at the point of a pistol only after he had been fired upon and when. he realized that escape was impossible. He gave as his reason for abducting the Muth boy that he needed money.
 From the day of the Kidnapping until the arrest yesterday afternoon Kean had kept the child in three vacant houses in West Philadelphia.
 Kean is married and has a wife and three children. He lives at 4l5 Horton street, West Philadelphia. He had re- gently been in financial trouble.
 Unless police calculations fail. today will see Kean indicted, tried, convicted and on his way to the penitentiary.
 Not since the abduction of Charlie Ross has the community been so wrought up by the commission of criminal act. The newspapers in or der to aid the police in tracing the kid naper were compelled to publish mis- leading stories for the purpose of throwing Kean on his guard. Tn the letters which the kidnaper wrote to Mir. Muth he threatened to kill the boy If his demands were not met. He de- manded that Mir. Muth tell the police a fictitious tale about the disappear ance of his son in order that the detec- { ttiyes might be withdrawn. ,a.
 It has developed since Kean's arrest that he had stolen $20,OO0 from the Harlem bank, New York. when he was bookkeeper in 1894. He admitted the theft.
