that he had intended fiinging from
him. NO" he said Il can't do it,"
In all the years of his practice he

starting now.

to break his fall. 1t was a black

thrust it aside.

"But, doctor, everybody is always

Woman Was Done as

By the Associated Press.

KANSAS CITY, July 16.-Walter
Werner. under life sentence for his part
in the kidnapping of Mrs. Nell Donnelly
testified last night he entered the plot
with the understanding that it was a
publicity stunt for the wealthy garment
manufacturer.
Werner was a defense witness at the
trial of Charles Mele on a charge of
taking part in the abduction last
December
Did understand you to say a while
ago the purpose was for publicity
stunt" asked Joseph Lasson, Mele's
attorney, that it was for the adver-
tising Nell Donnelly would get out
of it?'
THAT was how it all came about, "
replied Werner
The witness said he understood the
plan was organized by a banker and an
attorney for Paul Donnelly, husband of
Mrs. Donnelly.
Both Werner and Martin Deputy,
also under a life sentence in the case,
testified that, to the best of their knowl-
edge, Mele had no part in the kidnapping
Deputy testified the real leader of the
kidnapping plot was Vic Bonura, a res
taurant man. who has been missing
since Mrs. Donnelly was released "a
hours after she was kidnapped. Werner,
however, said Deputy. alias Martin
Depew, was the gang leader.

glamour of new gold strikes are found.
At the moment two camps attracting
great public interest are Great Bear,
near the Arctic Circle, the Pascalis-
Louvicourt area in Quebec.
Enthusiasts for the Quebec area pre-
dict that Quebec will take the place of
Ontario some day as the premier gold
producing area.
In Canada SO far systematic prospect
ing has taken place only on the fringe
of possible ore-bearing areas. System
attic prospecting is intensive work, and
the area to be covered is vast.
The Pre-Cambrian shield comprises
the greater part of Central and Eastern
Canada. 1t is also in the Pre- Cambrian
formation that the Rand of South
/ Africa. the Mysore Mines of India and
the mines OF Australia are located This
shield extends almost across Canada.
Gold strikes of the future in Canada
are in the lap Of the gods. Gold may
or may not be in Canada's unprospected
areas, but the possibilities are there, and
wherever there are possibilities the quest
for gold goes on. The world has been
we'll raked for placers. and the future
of gold mining lies in deep rock mining
In Canada's hard. cold, cruel, barren
lands, taking in thousands of miles
where there are only rock and water
where the foot Of man has never trod
and where those who have crossed by
airplane say no living thing exists, there
may be millions in gold hidden, with
only small surface streak to indicate
what lies below or possibly no indi-
cations at all.
Most discoveries have been made by
chance. No wonder hundreds of pros
pectors 60 through the northland, tap
ping rocks all their lives, with a gold
mine like mirage, shining just ahead
of them. Only few ever find the pot
at the end of the rainbow.
The airplane has revolutionized pros
pecting. Picturesque Jack Hammill"
tells how it is done now. Hammill was
the moving spirit behind the Film Flon
and the Howey at Red Lake He says:
Our pilots will take a couple Of pros
pectors to a promising locality by

Pack and Canoe.
"The plane later visits them with sup
plies. and if they have found nothing
of promise the plane takes them to
another locality, requiring only couple
of hours to travel the distance that
would have taken weeks by former
methods Of travel" Hammill says an
operate cast is not as temperamental
or as hard to handle as a mixture of
air pilots and prospectors.
Just at the moment, however there
is a move back to the pack and the
canoe. Some prospectors say the air
plane Is too expensive, and that the
man who stays close to the earth has
better chance of strike.
Many prospectors are in Toronto look
ing for some one to ''grubstake" them

Special Dispatch to The Star.
TORONTO, July 16.-Despite the de-
preston, there Is at least one industry
with record production and profits. II
its the gold mining industry in Canada
which, next to the Rand, is the greatest
gold producer in the world, averaging
$50 100000 year.
Gold production thrives in periods CT
depression. Mining costs decrease. All
the materials purchased by a mining
company, from bread to a hoist, cost
less; yet the company continues to get
$20.37 in coin or currency fer every
ounce of pure gold. There Is a further
profit now because the Canadian dollar
has deprecated in terms of the New
York dollar.
Production Figures.
Gold output in Canada is running
ahead Of the boom year of 1929, and the
Province of Ontario, the great gold
producing province, reported an all-time
record production during May with an
output valued at $4,079320
Production in Ontario in 1880 was
$35, ,385,274 and In 1881 $42.737,276.
For the first five months of 1882 pro-
duction was $19,026.618. at the rate OF
$45 .663,876 a year. Other provinces
contribute smaller amounts.
Dividends have been maintained and
