Sees Nueeets IN his Dreams.

In Tuesdays Denver Post OF the esr-
rent week is a lengthy account Of =
dream mine," the location ~hereof i,
placed somewhere near Idaho Springs
and, as . matter Of course the ore bris-
Ties with gold and is fahulously rich.
The story in brief is as follows: G o.
'hnson. a tailor. had dream in which
he saw a very rich mine somewhere be-
low Idano Springs Not paying any at
tention to it. he had another dream. and
still another. and then he told his wife.
That settled it and the two took the next
train for this city and started to the
scene of the dream, which they seemed
to have no d fficulty in finding. Claims
were located ant work started. the
couple mean~hiIe keeping their proceed
ings quiet until unw. About s. 900 has
been expended upon the property. &C.
cording to the story. and two veins
opened which are very rich in god. Ac-
cording to the dream ihete should be
still another vein. a huge chunk of cold
md big Swede answering TO the de-
scrip,ian of Alex. Peterson. These little
essentials can very easily be supplied, we
may add, for the country below Idaho
springs is coursed by rich veins, the old
timer. used TO think no,hing of picking
up hunks Of gold. and Peterson is ranch
ing several miles farther down the creek
than the place where We imagine the
dream mine" is located.
The work so far has beeu by tunnel, a.
there is big rock on top of the gold ana
The consulting engineer decided that il
was too large to shift around. The tun-
mel will be continued until the third vein
in the dream is cut. Some eighty acres
of land has been secnred through pur-
chase, the tax $ paid and The johnson
Dream Mining Company incorporated,
capital "a ion IS 10000, full paid and
non assessabl-, the officers being G o
Johnson president. Louis O. Erick,ou
vice president, Jennie Nictor'a johnson
second vice president; Augusta Johns N
secretary, and S Adolph Cedsrblad
40, vet been announced, and SO we anx
iousle await the prospectus.
The story in ITS entirety is in the Posts
best vein and undoubtedly will be read
with avidit, by thousands who hitherto
have imagined tn It Nevada was the only
place where chunks of gold too heavy to
lift abounded and where the public could
get in on the ground floor at only cents 8
a sh re for, thirty days, when the price
would be raised to SC, the proceeds to be
devoted to development purposes, etc i,
after VIII ,ch would cone the dividends.
While the account Of the Dream mine
has strong Nevada f,vor, aud there is
no G. o Johnson appea, ing on the treas
urer's books of this county, we trus, that
there Is a strong foundation tor the re
p ,rt aud that another big mining enter
prise has taken shape.
