FIND RICHES IN OLD NINE
New Owners Strike Pockets Of Goid,I
and 1t Is Said That More
Are in Sight.

The old Sugarman mine, at the head,
of Portuguese gulch on Bald noun,

for its owners, Charles Smith and Rob-
ert Watson. These expert pocket min;
ers, some nine hundred feet under1
ground. in the face Of q tunnel, struck;

WINGED them that they were in close
Proximity to a pocket.
For two weeks they followed the,
lead. the small stream of gold grad
ually growing larger, until a few days
ago blast sent, a shower of gold,
shotted rock all over the drift. Pre-.
sumably the. heart OF the pocket had,
been feached and the ounces Of the
precious metal gathered up 1bori grew
into pounds and from, hundreds to
thousands OF dollars in value, and still
the ribbons Of gold interlace the ore
in place, and the end is not yet.
The Sugarman mine is among the
more important of the Bald mountain
section. 1t was located early in the
fifties, and worked to shallow depth
by Pernvians with great success. Like
many Of the claims OF that day, which
subsequently became famous producj
ers, the Sugarman was Abandoned
and remained unclaimed and un1

during the latter years of his life,
Neale leased the property to Smith

20 per cent Of the gross productions,

Day Of tho Gentleman Farmer.

AS q result partly Of the widening
influence OF our agricultural colleges
and partly of numerous cooperating
agencies, new set OF ideals is being
created with regard to country life;
asserts a writer in the Atlantic. The
nation as q whole. in fact, is making
q re-estimation Of rural life. With the
coming nf rfear lands, city people have
awakened to new interest in coun1
try affairs and a new respect for
country habitants. There is before
us in the United States the opportun-
ity to develop perhaps the finest type
of rural civilization that the world has
ever known. The ownership Of land IN
past ages has always been most honor.
able, but the working Of 1t has been
regarded generally as degrading. The
actual farmers. equipped with their
poor. pitiable instruments, and con-
.demned to unceasing and dishearten,
ing toll. have been slaves. serfsi
heathen, pagans. Doors. pessapts. But
today the use Of machinery and nsvt
facilities for communication make Il
possible for the same individual to be
q tiller OF the soil and 9 gentleman. .

never take the trouble to get acquaint-

Bud Hinclxley, who amt quite right
In his head, has broke out several times
of late and his last offence has prob
ably broke off 4 match betwixt Buds
mother, the Wilder Hinckley, and old
Gideon Miller, who has been paying
some attenshions to the wilder for sew
oral wks. past, & it has been perdickted
that they would make a match of it
yet
Gid, however, says he is through with
the wilder. He says that he did take
a considerable shine to Mrs. Hinckley
and that he might of led her to the
altar but that he can't abide Bud, who
every time he goes to set up with the
wilder, stays in the room and plays
pranks. Last time Gid called Bud pour
ed nearly qt of maple syrup into
Cid's overcoat pocket on the sly and
Gid didn't know it was there until he
showed his hand into it on the way
home
Gid says he wouldn't mind marrying
the wilder but he doggoned if he'll
marry Bud too. AS for the wilder, she
says unless Gid promises to love, hon
ner & cherish her son Bud she won't
have nothink to do with him and cal
kilates it's a good riddance of bad rub

THE BEE AS A

it mean ennyhow, or does It mean
that whoever takes the Bugie u II

Soon as Gid UP and aslkt Us this

right then and there that we would
write a eddytoriul ON why the picir-

take our pen In hand to do - in

The bee, gentil reader, h now

dustry-the piclshure Of 4 bee
stands for ernest endeavor & indie

bee means wherever you see it.

to have some trade mark or other
to distinguish the Bugle by-some-
think which would mean some
think. First off we thort of using
q pictshure of a grasshopper,
which would indycate that we was
on the Jump from mornin. until
night, then all to onct it occurd to
us that we couldn't do bettern to
use a pickshure of a bee, so we
used one & its been there ever sinst.
We wish to inform our subscrib-
ers that that there bee at the head
of the Bugle means that we are al
