that will at least tend to minimum

WHERE GOLD ORE ABovNDs
Untold Wealth In Minerals Hidden I'M
Plains and Mountains Of
Colorado.

Untold wealth in gold, silver and
copper lies hidden in the plains and
mountains Of Colorado. awaiting only
discovery by the prospector," said
John A. Heron, . wealthy miner Of
Denver. Il make this assertion on
the authority Of mining experts and
engineers who have gone over nearly
every foot Of territory In the state.
One old miner Of Colorado recently
declared that the San Juan country
In Colorado 10 20 full Of minerals that
to tell Of It would sound like . fairy
tale. He declared that he discovered
the riches Of that section 30 long ago
as 1860, but that 1t has never been
touched because the region where ore
abounds is almost inaccessible. When
1t becomes possible to develop the
mines Of San Juan, believe it will
be found to be the best mineral field
in Colorado.
'This statement may seem incon-
sistent with the recent figures of the
census bureau in Washington, which
show that the last eight years the
number Of men employed in mining,
milling and smelling in Colorado has
been cut almost fl half. In 1902 these
Industries had more than $4,000 men
on the pay rolls. but in 1910 the num-
Der had been reduced to less than
10000.
II believe that the time is not far
distant when there will be a revival
Of the great mining boom which years
ago induced thousands Of persons to
flock to Colorado in search Of wealth.
skilled miners and scientific engineers
and biologists agree that hundreds Of
miles Of the mountains Of Colorado
are mineralized. Quantities Of gold
are awaiting those who win search
for it."

and the woman Immediately became

Feeling around. however. until she
found herself again, she exclaimed:
''They tell me You can ind anything!"
The great detective bowed modestly.
