GREAT GOLD FIND.
Ledge -Four Feet Wide Uncovered by a
CIoudburst.

Denver, Aug. 16.-Gold deposits of
vast extent, lying almost at the grass
roots in a vein four feet wide, the ore
assaying from 500 to $2,250 ton. are
cloudburst in northern New Mexico,
within twenty miles of the southern
boundary of Colorado, and experienced
mining men of the early days in Grip
pie Creek declare that the discovery
assures the upbuilding of mining
camp as great as Cripple Greek.
Fifteen hundred men are declared
already to have arrived at the new
gold field and they have staked out
ground for miles The original dis
coverers endeavored to preserve Sc
crecy concerning their finds, but were
unable to do so. and each train to the
nearest railroad station carries an in
creasing number of prospectors.
The new camp lies fifty miles from
Blanca CostiIla county, Colorado, on
The news of the gold discovery was
brought to Denver by A NJ kearns,
who has land interests in Taos county
and had been in that region on land
business. He says:
1.-THE gold was found only a week
ago by three or four Alamosa men who
had gone there to fish. A few days
there was a big cloudburst and when
they reached LaTir peak they found a
ledge exposed for many feet that shone
witt gold. They were old mining men
vein and the assays showed $2,25O to
the ton. They have gone down twenty
six feet, making assays as they went,
and the lowest return has been 500 to
the ton across the entire four foot
vein.
John Erickson, a pioneer of Grip
pie Creek, who cleaned up 100000 or
$500, 900 there, told me that the four
foot vein outcrops for at least two
miles and has been traced for more
than five miles. The vein lies between
walls of granite and porphyry-gran-
lite on one side and porphyry on the
other-and Erickson says there is no
doubt that the camp will prove to be
the greatest since Cripple Creek, If not
greater.
81 know that at least 500 men are
now camped on LaTir peak, with
claims staked out all along the ledge
for miles. and Erickson and others told
us that there were at least 1900 peo-
pie in the district, though a week ago
there were only a few fishermen there
Samples have been taken all along
the outcrop and everywhere the same
high values in gold are found with a
little silver. but the people are not pay
ing any attention to the silver or any |
other metal that may be in the ore"
Reports of rich discoveries in the |
region had been current for some time |
but could not be confirmed until the |
return of Mr.. Kearns from the district. |

The body work afforded him leverage.
and Dick laughed as the sleigh began
TO gain speed
For the first half mile the road was
straight. and little steering was neccs-
sary. Then ahead loomed the turn, and
Dicks face turned grave as he dug the
shaft into the road.
Slowly the sleigh responded TO the
pressure, and in another instant they
had swung around the curve as neatly
as n champion coaster on his low
pointer. and they were again on the
straight and headed for the station.
Hank Carew had Just backed his en-
gine down from the house, and n white
plume of steam rose from the dome as
the engineer waited for the minute
hand of the clock to touch the bottom
of the dial.
The runaways were still a quarter OF
mile from the station when the cut
ter slowed up. but they had gained
more than minute In their swift de-
scent, and they did not have to run.
AS they came up to the station plat
form the little knots Of loungers gath
cred about them. Rapidly Dick eX-
planned the reason for the coast. and
the listeners cheered as they heard the
tale. For years they had grumblcd mt
the way Waring treated Joyce, and
they were glad that at last she was to
be released from her fathers hard
reign.
Here comes your dad now" pipcd a
shril voice And with one accord they
turned to see the familiar Waring team
tearing over the brow Of the hill.
Carew glanced ut the steam gauge
and the clock. Then he leaned out of
the window.
"All aboard that's going" he called
in n stentorian voice. "We're chang
ing the schedule today. The 9:3O is 60
ing out at 8:2S!"
Another instant and the train was
rattling down the road toward the state
line, and Hiram Waring came dashins
up to the platform to be greeted by
ironical cheers.

sputtered II shall report this to the

Waring that the sympathy was all with
the runaways. He was to be n candi-
date for county treasurer in the fall.
1t would not do to turn bis townspeo-
pie against him. As be headed the
horses for home he half turned in his
seat.

pletes the round trip" he shouted out,
