THE RICHEST GOLD MINE
Is Still Undiscovered and the Northern
indians Guard the Secret of
Its Whereabouts

The management OF the Alaska
Yukon-Paciic Exposition, which will
be held at Seattle in 1909, proposes to
reproduce at the exposition several of
the famous mines OF the North, that
made dozens OF millionaires during
1898 and 1900. But the richest mine
that the North has will not be repro
duced for the simple reason that no
white man has ever seen it and lived
to tell the tale.
In the early days of the camp GER
tain tribe of Indians from the north
arrived in Dawson for the first time.
To the great astonishment of the few
that first saw the tribe every member
had several ornaments carved from
great nuggets of virgin gold. Their
tribe had never met the white men
before and to breathless inquiries the
tribesmen told how near where they
lived was a stream in which the yellow
metal could be picked up in chunks as
big as ones fist. Near by, they said,
there was cliff in which the metal
stood out like moss on a mountain
side.
The Indians soon learned the value
OF their ornaments and shrewdly re-
fused to tell where they got them.
Nevertheless several prospectors tried
to follow the tribe on their return to
the northern village, but the willy red
men easily succeeded in losing the
less agile paleface. Since then there
have been several more or less secret
and always unsuccessful attempts to
find the lost gold Of the Indians.

Committees Are on the Job

At the public meeting held Wed
nesday evening to consider the feas-
ibiLty of establishing a reading and
recreation room, much interest was
manifested. Mr.. Rumohr was ap-

bylaws, the committee being com
posed of H. c. Carr, D. H. Magyar
and George Moad. A second com
mittee, composed Of J. G. DeBord,
Jack Overdorf and George Moad, was
appointed to solicit funds to establish
and carry on the work.
The meeting then adjourned to
meet next Wednesday night when the
committees will report and further ac-
ton will be taken.

HELP TO BEAUTIfY THE TOWN
In the Rush Attendant Upon the Growth
of leavenworth Aesthetics Should
Not Be Overlooked.

One of the deplorable phases of town
building in the United States, and es-
pecially that portion of the republic
known as the West, is the tendency
to build hurriedly, ignoring in the
rush the value of beautifying the town
as the stages of growth advance.
In later years those who have re-
mained in the town as permanent set
tiers have reason to regret the undue
haste that obtained in the incipient
stages of the towns expansion.
At times, when they journey from
home and observe the beauty of some
other town, noting the clean, we'll
kept streets, properly graded and
fringed on either side with attractive
shade trees; the well-kept lawns of the
home, adorned with ornamental trees
and shrubbery and abloom with a
wealth of flowers, an air of thrift and
tidiness resting over the whole scene,
the contrast with the shabbiness Of their
own town intensifes the keen pain OF
regret which they feel for the place that
they call home.
If Leavenworth people would avoid
the pain and grief described above,
the time is now ripe for action.
The town is growing rapidly, but is
the work of beautifying it keeping
pace with the building activity
From an aesthetic viewpoint we re-
gret to say that Leavenworth is not
making very much progress.
Suppose an effort was made to beaut-
tify that part of Front sreet immedl-
ately opposite the depot. Devote
enough space there for small park;
enclose it with neat fence; have a
fountain in the center; SOW the ground
to tame grass; plant trees and have
flower beds cover its surface and grav-
ell walks threading its expanse, and plat
of earth thrown up with the magic
words Welcome to Lovely Leaven-
worth" made with the variegated col
ors Of flowers growing on its surface.
A scene OF this kind, presented to the
eye of the stranger, passing through
the town on the Great Northern rail-
road and stopping for the short time
that passenger trains are held here,
would be worth a good deal more to
the property owners of Leavenworth,
in actual cash value, than the money
and time expended in the improve
ment. This is true because it would
attract the attention of thousands OF
people who pass though this town
every year with no other purpose in
view than to find place to invest their
money in property or business ven
lures.
Hence we find that aside from the
qualification to pride that comes to the
people of a town through the work of
making it beautiful place to live in,
another reward is offered in the en-
HANGED value to property.
Let US hasten to inaugurate a plan
that will make the work Of beautifying
Leavenworth commensurate with the
building activity that is now rampant
all over the town.

Youthful Depravity-Eight Year Old Shoots
Companion

A shooting affair took place on the
railroad track in the west end of town
last Sunday evening in which two boys,
one eight and the other nine years old,
were the principals. The younger of
the two, a son Of Jacob Schmidt,
handled the gun, ID calibre rifle, and
demanded that the other boy, Conrad
Helm, throw up his hands and upon
his refusal to do so shot him. The
bullet struck the inside of the right
leg Just above the knee and traversed

w. E. Montgomery, printer who
tarried in town here few short days
departed last Sunday after the manner
of printer men, without saying good
bye. He drew his pay Saturday'nigh
and proceeded to put the money in
circulation. AS rule printers do not
believe in boarding money. They be-
lieve it was made to spend and the
first thing a printer does after he re-
ceives his wages is to get rid OF them.
Now, Mr.. Montgomery is no exception
to the rule, though you might easily
suppose that a man who had followed
the occupation for forty-odd years
would change, if only for the sake oi
variety, but he believes in keeping up
the traditions OF the tramp printer.

upwards about two-thirds the length
OF the thigh and lodged in the Aeshy
part of the leg. DR.. Gauson, who was
called, concluded that it would be very
difficult to locate the bullet without
the aid of machine and induced the
father to take the boy to Spokane Mon
day morning, where it was located by
DR.. Cunningham with his X-Ray ma
chine and easily extracted. At last
reports the boy was doing nicely and
unless blood poisoning sets in no
serious consequences will result.
There is no cause for the shooting
so far as we can learn, other than the
Schmidt boy was trying to intimidate
the other boy. 1t is stated by COM
panions of the two boys that the
Schmidt boy had fired upon the other
lad couple Of days previous, the bull
let just missing his head. The
Schmidt boy has been shooting pro-
miscuously around the neighborhood
in which he lives for some time and
his parents had been warned by neigh
bors againt allowing him the use of the
gun. But the warnings seem to have
fallen on barren ground and they will
probaly have to stand suit for dam
ages as the result of their negligence.
AS for the boy, he is an unsafe person
to be at large. An eight year old boy
who will wilfully and deliberately fire
upon a companion would not hesitate
to do murder and his criminal tend
encies should be curbed before they
get him into serious trouble. e.-Odesss

The bodies OF Vern Wilcox and
Robert D. Mitchell, both of Spokane,
who were drowned in the Columbia
river near Bridgeport, Wash, last week
have not been recovered, according to
second report received at Spokane
Monday. According to the second
report the two men had been camping
at the mouth of the Okanogan river,
on an island about seven miles below
Bridgeport. The last seen of them
was last Thursday. The following day
boat was found drifting about
near Bridgeport and later hat was
discovered floating on the water. In
vestigation showed that the horses in
the camp were in famished condi-
ton, indicating that the accident may
have happened two or three days ago.
Soon after the discovery OF the boat
and the hat several search parties were
organized. The river was dragged for
several hours without result, when a
storm broke and the rescuers were
compelled to seek the shore. It is
believed that Mitchell and Wilcox
were looking after timber lands.

Douglas county is in the midst of a
grain harvest which it is said will break
the record. A yield Of three million
bushels of wheat is very confidently
predicted. Market quotations show 70
cents for Columbia Siding and 65 cents
for all up-river points, which is II
cents higher than the opening market
of last year. But few contracts are be-
ing made as yet, the general opinion
among the farmers being that the price
will go higher.

Under an order from Capt. John
Webster, agent of the Colville Indian
reservation, no white men will be al
lowed to hunt on the reservation this
year. The order became necessary
because white hunters would kill hun
dreds OF ducks and leave their carcases
to decay on the prairies and shore Of
the lake.
