LEADVJLLE, Colo, Jan. 25. TT Old Tom Palmer, digging on Fryer Hill, hopes to write a new chap ter in the story of flaw Tabor and his $11 100000 Matchless silver mine
 Palmer thinks Tabor had "darn good reason for telling his second wife, the once plump, blonde and pink checked Baby Doe, to hold on to the Matchless." He's digging the old workings to find out the rea- son.
 Through years of plnchless pow erty Baby Doe guarded the mine with a shotgun and sharp words. Three years ago, they found her in the Matchless shack, her body froz- en and her stiff fingers clutching a purse with two wrinkled dollar bills. last of the Tabor millions.
 Palmer is an optimist, disregard ing mining men who call the Match less "an incredibly hazardous fi- nancial gamble.
 lOla Palmer Moved In
 He risked his life to climb down alone into the old shaft with it's routed timbers to see if mining men knew what they were talking about

Chinese Soldiers Still Cling to
 Their Umbrellas

SHANGHAI, Jan. 25.-Moderni- zation of Chinas armies has not yet reached the stage where it has been possible to abolish the umbrella in favor of the raincoat as a part of the Chinese soldiers pack equip ment.
 The raincoat, in the mind of the Chinese private in Chiang Kai Sheks regiments is a useless arti- cle because it doesn't keep the head dry. As a result of this attitude, all efforts on the part of the mili- tary authorities at Nanking to in- duce the soldier to give up his oil- paper umbrella for rubberized rain coats have proven futile.
 Another Chinese argument in fa- vor of the umbrella as an item of military importance is that it forms an ideal medium of camouflage More than four feet in diameter. it gives protection to almost the en- tire body of a soldier surled up be- heath it. Covered with straw or branches of trees, it is difficult for the enemy to detect, even with field glasses.
