 What was our biggest pam We'll. *l.Neo was perhaps the best pan but think I can get $5,OOO in one pan if | Was to go over the ground carefully and pick up the gold Yes. you can see il lying there. II is right in sight
 "I do nope tHe other boys strike it." said Mir. olson. for anyone who has put q hole down 130 feet in that eoun- try is deserving of all he can get. There are few men. however, who will stana around and watch the other fellow exrend his time and labor and do nothing whatever 10 assist him. Ne gave everyone all the information they desired and helped them in any Dos sible way
 "Capt. F. NJ. Johnson. of Nome. who had grubstaked two men in that coun- try. fell into it. on No. below they struck it, getting several hundred dol lars on bcdrock''
 Mir. olson brought s1OOOOO in gold with him.

rest was made at his home Saturday
by B. and o. Officer Powell. of Clarks-
burg.
It Is said that the railroad police
has been working on the
case for months past, and while they
had COON reason to believe that Camp
was the guilty party, coull not get any
direct. evidence until few days ago
when he was caught In the act. -!
y "A farmer, hoeing corn in the field
along the. railroad track saw Camp
spike heavy pieces OF scrap iron over
the rails which would have been de-
rallied an engine striking It. The far.
mer. removed the work and then noti.
fed the employees OF the railroad com
pany. AS soon as the word reached
the police department. the arrest was
male.
Two trains have already been de.
rallied by. a similar obstruction and on
one occasion a section crew was
thrown over the embankment there by
running over d number of rail spikes
whicl, had been laid on the track.
Camps motive is unknown but 1t Is
said that he possesses a degree Of Gus
setlness which crops out frequently.
His case will come up before the next
grand Jury.
