A Fortunate Blacksmith

Some interesting particulars of the
silver discoveries at Cobalt, about 800
miles north of Toronto, in the Can
adian Highlands, are given in the last
number of Chambers Journal. In
that year the government of Ontario
was building railway through north
ern Ontario for the purpose of open
ing up the country. The first dis
covery is credited to Fred La Rose,
working blacksmith, who can neither
read nor write, attached to the rail-
way construction gang. 1t is said he
threw a hammer at a rabbit scamper-
ing past. and when picking up his
hammer had his attention attracted
by white streak on the rock surface.
Two other men also discovered miu-
eral about the same time, and pro-
cecded 10 stake out claims. La Rose
took Mr.. Martin, the railroad con-
tractor, into his confidence. The lat
ter helped him to stake out his claim,
and received in return a half-interest
in the property. Shortly afterwarj
La Rose sold his share to the Tim
Minis Brothers of ottawa for the
paltry sum of $4,000. The Tim
minses and Mr.. Martin worked the
property together for some time brt
eventually converted it into a com
pany and named it La Rose.
Iu 1906 no less ttan 1900, 900
worth of silver was produced. In
1907 the product III was four tir1es
as great, while 1903 showed a returr
of over $9,OOO,OOO.

THE SALUBRIOUS CLIMATE
OF GLORIOUS COOS COUNTY

editor. c.. E.. Kope. in. Bandon
Recorder.)
There are always some people who
are dissatisfied with their lot, no
matter what that lot may be, but
whatever one may say of the Pacific
Coast, and especially of Coos county,
one cannot hep but praise its salu-
brious climate, and there are two
times in the year, at least, when this
particular feature is very noticeable;
the middle of summer and the dead
OF winter.
Just now we read in the papers of
terrific storms throughout the east
and middle west, of scores and even
hundreds of heat prostrations, while
out here in Coos county we are en-
joying a climate, so agreeable in all
its forms, that the beauties can hard
ly be described, Then again in The
winter, when the only inconvenience
we are subjected to is a little rain,
we read of snow-bound railroads,
people perishing from cold and hun
ger, and in fact all manner of evils
caused by cold weather. Surely there
is no place on earth superior to Coos
county, so far as climate Is con-
cerned, and what can be said of the
climate can also be said of nearly
everything else in regard to this
section of the country.

case of kidney and bladder trouble,

Keen observers predict a big boom
in property in Wantland, Colorado, the
new town which is being built in the
center of the Little Snake River Val
ley in Routt County, Colorado. A big
irrigation system is being built to irri-
gate 10000 acres of very fine land sur
rounding Wantland. The land is be-
ing sold by the State of Colorado for
80 cents per acre, under the Carey
Act, and water rights cost $500 an
acre, in ten year payments. Sugar fac

among the possible industries to be To-
Gated at Wantland. Full information
