OROVILLE May 23.-The discovery
of an ancient river channel under $50
feet of lava has proved true the dream
of mammoth channel" miners have
talked about since the golden days of
'49. The strike was made by mining
company on the Magalia ridge.
Gravel, which has been uncovered
after two years of constant search, lies
in the very center of what is familiarly
known as the mammoth channel, a
great prehistoric stream that was
known to exist from geological condi-
tions. Tributaries running into the
main channel have yielded millions of
dollars, and miners from the days of
the Argonauts have held that the mann
moth channel once uncovered would
prove a treasure box. At a depth of
$50 feet the gravel was struck yester-
day.
Further than to say that every pan
shows colors, those in charge will make
no statement regarding the values to
which the gravel is running.

COLUSA ADOPTS
GALA DAY ATTIRE
Annual Carnival Will Attract
Many Thousands From Sac

[SeeciaL Dispatch 10 The ColIl

COLUSA, May 23.-Al gates leading
into the town OF Colusa will this week
be thrown open to welcome the multi
tude of visitors who are expected to
join with this city IN making merry
in the annual carnival.
Special trains will carry merrymak-
ers from other points in the valley, and
it is predicted that many thousands
from surrounding towns will partake
of the hospitality of Colusans. The
committees in charge have left moth
ing undone to make the carnival a
success, but there are several details
which are yet unoompleted The most
important of these is the selection of
a queen to rule the three days of fes-
tivities
The carnival queen is being chosen
by vote, and the contest is getting more
spirited as the closing day OF the polls
approaches.
QUEEN WILL RULE CITY
The carnival proper win be launched
Saturday morning with elaborate cere-
mOny in the coronation of the queen.
The keys of the city win be handed to
the new ruler by Mayor Eybel. The
committee on illumination promises to
make Colusa d Venice on Saturday and
Monday nights. when thousands of col
ored electric lights will produce a beau
tiful effect on the waters of the Sacra-
mento.
Motor boat and canoe races on Mon
day will reach a climax in the evening,
when a grand ball will be held on
decorated floating barge on the river.
The motor boat races will not only at
tract 200 crafts from Sacramento, but
will bring many from Vallejo and other
bay clubs which have looked forward
to this event
The handsome trophies offered to the
winners are on exhibition in Sacra-
mento, the races being held under the
auspices of the Sacramento boat clubs.
The largest mosquito fleet ever as
sembled on the Sacramento river will
be seen al Colusa. The advance guard
of the Sacramento boats will reach here
Friday night.
WILL BE BOOM FOR VALLEY
The Sacramento Valley development
association is working on plan to
raise $3.50 600 in five years to be spent
in advertising the Sacramento valley,
and the gala appearance of Colusa will
doubtless have a marked effect on the
proposition and bring home the benefits
TO be derived.
Superior Judge Ellison of Red Bluff,
Superior Judge Peter j. Shields of Sac
ramento and d. NJ. Ross of Colusa will
address the valley promoters There
will also be an executive meeting of
the directors Monday evening.
