The public is offered an investment
in a proven gold mine, located in the
very center Of proven gold district.
The district, scarcely more than
two miles square, has produced over.
$60,OO0,000, and the mine in which
the investment is offered has pro-
duced something over $2,000,000.
These figures can be verified by the
government geological reports cover
ing the production Of gold in the
Stemple mining district, located in
Lewis & Clark county, Montana,
about Is miles distant from Helena.
The property is one Of the largest
and most desirable in the state Of
Montana. 1t consists of nine lode
I claims, three placers and three mill
sites.sthe whole comprising something
of 100 acres. Only three Of the lode
claims have received and develop
ment, one of them yielding about
100000 in bullion and the other two
about $1,7o0.O00.
In the claim yielding the smaller
amount, the ore body opened up on
3 three sides shows values close to $4,-
100000, while in the other two there
is not less than 100000 in sight. In
addition to these values, there IS at
least another $1,5O0,000 in the two
large failing dams and the three
I placers. Values in the remaining
six lode claims and in the numerous
smaller veins cut by the long cross
cut tunnel are eliminated in the
above estimates, regardless Of the
fact that these smaller veins carry
the highest grade of ore, some of it
running away up in the thousands in
value.
The property is developed by a
cross cut tunnel LOO feet long. At a
distance of 100 feet from its mouth,
and at a depth Of 100 feet under the
surface, two large veins were cut at
their intersection, and levels have
been driven on their course both east
and west to a total length Of some
2,400 feet. About 80 per cent Of the
ground between this tunnel level and
the surface has been worked out, and
it was this 80 per cent that yielded
$1,700,000 in bullion. 1000 feet be-
yond these two veins, and running
parallel Herewith, the tunnel inter-
sected at depth of $50 feet, another
very large body of ore, only about 10
per cent of which has been taken out,
leaving the full 80 per cent in place.
The surface movements on the
property consist of one of the best
constructed 60-stamp quartz mills in
the United States, a 500 ton per day
cyanide mill. numerous dwelling
houses, two blacksmith shops, two
large store buildings, and all the
necessary machinery and tools to en-
able the management to carry on
mining and milling operations on a
very large scale, or approximately the
handling of 500 tons Of material per
day. As the average value Of this
ore is better than $40 per ton, and as
the average cost of mining and mill
ing will not exceed $3.50 per ton, it is
manifest that the earning power of
the property will be very large; and
as the ore bodies are practically in
exhaustible, the stability and perma-
( nency Of the enterprise can not be
reasonably questioned.
The proposition is so strong, its
character so stable, and verification
of the claims set forth SO easily Sc

A MYSTERY OF THE SEA.
The Puzzling Beeswax of the Beaches
OF Oregon.

Tho Puzzling Beeswax OF the Beaches
OF Oregon.
OF all the secrets held by the fotsarn
ana jctsam OF many years none is
stranger than that Of the beeswax OF
The Oregon beaches. Long before The
white man came to the great north
west by ship or prairie schooner YES
sells from the orient had skirted the
coast. Bits of wreckage have told the
story or Chinese junks gone to pieces
on the shore, but the most curious evi-
dence Of this eastern traflc has been
found on the Oregon coast south OF
the Columbia river. Mr.. Clarke gives
an account OF this treasure trove in his
Pioneer Days"
When Lewis and Clark made their
famous expedition they learned that
the native Indians OF Oregon had for
many years found Jumps Of beeswax
on the sandy shores.
Beeswax is practically indestructIbIe
IN water, but these pieces had bounded
in the surf until they were blocl, and
battered ALMOST beyond recognition.
In 1871 one Henry, engaged in the
lur trade, wrote IN account OF finding
masses Of this wax. The pieces were
scattered over wide stretch Of coast
and were now covered, now uncovered.
by the blowing sand. Some OF tbe
Jumps We're softencd into all shapes
and sizes by the heat OF the sun and
bieached nearly white. Others were
square and stamped with strange char
acters.
In 1898 Mr.. Howell, walking on ths
beach, saw something exposed In the
sand. 1t proved to be the corner of
some large squares OF beeswax weigh
Ing several tons. Many smaller blocks
were also found, all bearing the stamp-
cd letters 81 II s." Besides the squares
OF wax, quantities Of large candles
were discovered. In looking I'D the
matter it was learned that as far back
rs records ran these tapers had been
found with the wax on tSe shore.
OF course the explanation may be
[hat some oriental ship bearing church
supplies for a mission farther south
went to pieces on the Oregon coast 4
many, many years ago. but what
would ship bound for Mexico or /
south America be doing so far north. (
IND what use could any mission have /
or such an enormous quantity Of wax?

The Spiral That Connects the Earth
With the Clouds.

The Spiral That Connects the Earth
With the Clouds.
While IN Kansas n few years ago I
had very clear view OF n tornado. II
was about ten miles distant passing
swiftly over the prairie. 1t presented
the appearance OF 4 long rope about
two feet In diameter. 1t extended
from n dark. irregularly shaped cloud
10 the earth and was slightly curved.
1t was Of nearly uniform thickness
and leaned about thirty-flve degrees
from n perpendicular toward the cloud.
y line drawn from where / stood TO
the cloud would have made an angle of
about forty degrees with the earth's
surface. After this ropelike projection
had parted I noticed in the irregular
cloud perfectly shaped spiral of sill
yer wilderness. 1t was shaped like q
great auger and extended from the
point where the funnel or rope had
been connected with the cloud forward
In the direction the cloud was moving.
All around 1t was in Wild commotion.
but the spiral itself seemed to stand
Ike great white ribbon coiled anger
shape and fixed secure. This spiral at
the time I caught sight OF 1t was lying
IL q nearly horizontal position. the for
ward end being only slightly elevated.
have never met any one who has
seen this spiral In the tornado cloud.
but by one who came dangerously near
being caught by q passing tornado I
was told that the center OF the whirl-
Ing funnel was as white as milk. From
his statement, taken IN connection
with my own observations, have
formed the opinion that the center of
all tornadoes is a perfectly shaped cleo
rical spiral and that when In opera
ton 1t connects the earth with the
cloud. 1t is manifest that such spiral
would give the middle Of the tornado
funnel white appearance. But It is
not likely that one looking at 1t in its
upright form would detect its spiral
form. Indeed, It would have to turn
itself In a most favorable position in
order to reveal to the eye Of the OBJ
server its spiral FORM Scientific Amer
