Nehalem Beach Beeswax Mystery Ac
eenlnated by Diacovery at the
Root of Ancient Tree.
NEHALEM. Or., March 13. (Special.)
The quest for the Neah - Kah - Nie
treasure has started again ana tnis
Summer promises to see two or more
Industriously digging on the side of
the mountain for the hidden wealth.
It has been several years since anyone
has sought the treasure and for a time
it looked as though it had been for
gotten. For two months this Winter a party
of four men has been quietly at work
seeking the treasure and several good
sizad holes testify to their industry.
Pat Smith, who has already spent
nine years gophering the mountainside
in quest of the treasure, has the bee
again and has applied for permission
from Mr. Reed to dig this Summer. He
has the location of the treasure fig
ured down to 100 square feet and de
sires the right to excavate that area.
A new mystery was added to the
beeswax story connected with the Ne
halem Beach by the discovery of a
large chunk of the substance under a
stump some distance back from the
Tavern at Neah-Kah-Nie. While dig
ging out a stump the men removed a
root that was more than two feet thick.
Under this root the chunk of wax was
found. From all indications the tree
must have been several hundted years
old and the wax placed or drifted there
when the tree was small.

poses. Doctors May Prescribe.
