VAST RICHES IN OLD MINES
Wealth Awaits Lucky Prospector
Who Can Find One, Though Many
Are Known to Exist.

We are all familiar with Sir Rider
Haggard's king Solomon's Mines
nor was he by any means the first to
put forward the theory, though in a
romance, that many old and but half
worked mines might yet await the
patient toll of the searcher. Except
in cases where there had been long
continued use, it is not at all improb-
able that there are ancient mines
ready to reward the intelligent
methods of today. But now in Idaho,
we are told, "the lost gold mine OF
the Upper Salmon river district" has
been rediscovered. A rich ledge had
been found by two prospectors and
worked by them little; then they fell
out and Spokane policeman, who had
the secret from one of them, sought
the mine for 20 years; then he fell
out, and now it has been found anew,
to enrich the finders, for the ledge

Elderly Passenger in Airplane Was
Looking for Some Thrills for
His Good Money.

Last summer Kokomo, Ind, had the
usual airplane pilot who took pas
sengers up for 81 a minute. The
pilot was approached one day by a
man who was easily within earshot
of eighty years. The pilot took him
aboard and scared around in "stralght
flying" in order not to give the elder
~ passenger any thrills that would
be dangerous to his heart action.
After the customary fifteen minutes
he slid gracefully to the ground and
motioned his passenger to alight!
The old man complied, and then
walked up to the aviator.
Say" he exclaimed, "are you real
flyer? What about Immelman turns,
barrel rolls, loop-the-loops, nose
dive, tail spin, falling leaf, pancake,
and so on? Can you do any Of those
things?"
Sure" replied the aviator, 'but
did not think you cared about any Of
those things. They are trifle risky,
you KNOW, anu mlSuL upSee Soul

'sWell, I paid for good ride and I
expected some of those things the
passenger countered, "and I would
like to get them. Give me all you
got. Tumble around in the air like
q porpoise in the ocean"
The aviator told him to climb
aboard and he would accommodate
him. He gave the passenger "all he
had"
That's fine!" exclaimed the pas
senger, as he climbed out of the
cockpit the second time. 'That's the
way I like to ride Indianapolis

Nathan L. Miller, in an address in this

Nations to be q state issue and called
upon Governor Smith to tell how the

vent New York men from becoming
cannon fodder if Article X of the league
covenant was carried out in an emer-

very vital state ISSUE" he said.

imateiy $4,000, 900 annually, and de-
clared his opposition to Capitalization

Gated by the Democratic candidate

ment at Washington is enough to last
for generatiOn," he added
Judge Miller declared that the Gov
ernor is now vested with sufficient
power to make possible efficient admin
istration Of the numerous boards and

his policy, if elected, would be that
of "not undertaking new things, which

quire and for which money is not IN
