Scene OF
HIS EARLY LIFE
ExHUMEs TOOLS CACHED OVER
FIFTY YEARS AGO NEAR
BEND CITY

Mention was made last week Of a
visit by I. N. Bruckwalter and c. r.
Buckwalter, of Royersford. Pa. The
former was a resident of Bend City
in 1864. While on his way to the
fairs he came this way to visit for
mer scenes, and dig put mining tools
that he buried on leaving there half
a century since. He found them,
too.
AS a lad of 90, he left San Fran
cisco with a companion in May.
1868, and the next month arrived
in Bend City. He says he con-
structed a pretty little cottage on the
bank of Owen river, its materials
being willow sticks and tules. A
little later they built a second man.

found one morning that the grub
supply had been raided by Indians
and their tracks were found all
around the little cabin. This also
happened a second time. No attack
vas made on the white men, how
ever.
Buckwalter ran a tunnel into the
right hand wall of the canyon, a
quarter of a mile up from it's mouth,
but failed to find wealth therein.
First the amateur miners had their
hearts set or gold; then they were
willing to take silver; then lead Or
any old thing would have done, but
none of those ores were in the range
of their tunnel.
Mr.. Buckwalter relates that he
went to a cobbler to have a boot
heel nailed on. The disciple of st.
Crispin drove in three 6-penny nails
and spent about three minutes on
the job, and charged $3.50.
Failing to strike it rich. the young
men worked for a man who refused
to pay their wages until there was
some talk by others of severe meas
ures. %whereupOn he arranged to pa?
them in groceries. Buckwalter
traded his goods for a horse which

went to Visalia.
In that day, the prime Of Bend
City. it comprised about 40 houses,
built of some timbers and more
adobes.
At the time of abandoning his
mining venture. Buckwalter buried
his tools near his shack, four miles
from Bend City. Last week he and
his son went to that spot. They
found the spring and the 50-foot
tunnel. dug a half century ago. and
also found that the tunnel was be-
ing used as a residence by a man.
The cache of tools was found, and
IA crOwbar, two shovels, two sledges,
two picks and a pair of tongs, the
whole stock planted there, were un-
earthed, and are being taken back
to Pennsylvania.
Failing to wiz out in California,
Mr.. Buckwalter went back to the
Keystone state, and in time became
a successful stove manufactures.
Now retired, he is vigorous and hale
for his II years. His son, who was
here with him, is connected with a
Royersford bank-Tnyo County Reg
lister.

 "The war;" he says, "does not in +ba least interfere with our coloniza tion work. because we are interesting ruropean born people who have been in America for some years. We find tbem better equipped. financially and otherwise to move on the land than tho new arrivals, who are unfamiliar with our language and customs. As matter of fact, the war has had the effect of stimulating this demand, be- cause these people have less of de- sire to now go back to their European homes than they had before the war"
 "The better farming movement is one of the important factors in at tracting attention to Arkansas just now, especially among the American farmers of the North and East who have read accounts of it's success in the press. It removes from their minds any impression that might have existed that this State is backward in tking up advanced agricultural ideas, and in that way, your better farming movement has become an actual aid to colonization work.
