San Francisco, July 11. Arreati are
expected , today In the mysterious case
of the murder of 'John Buchlnoff. 14
years old, who was killed by a blow
on the head yesterday afternoon an J
thrown Into a bin of garbage at the
sanitary reduction, where his slayer
evldenly believed It would be Incinerat
ed and all trace of the crime destroyed.
"Kverv ateD we take in the . caeo
confirms my belief that the boy was
murdered," said Captain Kelly, head uf
the detective force, today. "The fiend
ish plan of having the body burned in
the garbage plant was not the work of
an ordinary criminal."
Kvery driver who took a load of gar
Dana to the Incinerator yesterday is
under surveillance today and they are
being closely examined. The detectives
also , are making a close investigation
of the reoord of Fred Buchlnoff. father
of the murdered boy, who suddenly ap
peared at the reduction works last night
when the body was found and explained
that he had been searching for the miss
ing lad. The Buchlnoff home is nine
blocks from the reduction plant, and
the detectives can't got a satisfactory
explanation from the man how he hap
pened to be searching for his son there.
The mother of the dead boy called
at the morgue today and opening the
eyes gazed for five minutes Into the'n.
She la a Russian of the peasant type,
and the detectives learned frm her
that she believes the picture of a mur
derer Is always preserved in the eye of
the victim. The father accompanied
her .and they chanted in Russian all
the time they were in the morgue. The
mother felt the body of the boy from
head t foot, passing her hands over it
in a manner which aroused the curiosity
of the officials, but they were unable
to understand what she said. The de
tectives could see no photograph In the
dead boy's eyes.
The body was found last evening
when the workmen at the reduction j
works were preparing to empty the bin :
Into the incinerator. A hand protrud
' Ing from the garbage attracted the at
tention of the men and the stiffened I
body of the boy soon was revealed. !
It had scarcely been laid out on aj
plank when the aged father forced his
way through the crowd and flung him-;
self upori the prostrate form, chanting;
in weird tones a Russian psalm. The (
men had difficulty In disengaging the:
body from his embrace. ;
The discovery at the morgue that
death evidently had been caused by a
blow on the head, fracturing the skull,
led to investigation of the police on :
the murder theory. I
The coroner's Inquest developed that I
the Buchlnoff boy had died from suffo
cation. It Is thought probable that the
boy wasshlt over the heaa and rendered
unconsolouw befor he. was thrown Into
the bin and that he died there from
suffocation when wagon after wagon
load of garbage was dumped in upon
him.

Tacoma, July 11. When William
Collier was bowing his acknowledgment
to repeated curtain calls at the Tacoma
theatre last night In "Caught in the
Rain." was he wondering If "-the man
who during the day had robbed him of

Mr. Collier was robbed some time yes
terday of $500 and. though a born
comedian, he considers it no laughing
matter.
When the baggage car wnlch brought
the effects of the Collier company to
the Tacoma theatre from Belllngham

belonging -to Mr. CqlHer end his sister
had been chopped open with 'n ax and

A Portland Daily Newspaper Contained the Following account of One of the
Most Recent Strikes of That State's Gorgeous Piles of Prolific Ores:
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
Wallace. Idaho, June 26. One of the greatest ore strikes ever made in the history of the Coeur
d'Alenes took place vesterdav afternoon in the property of the Anchor Mining Company, located between
the Mammoth and Heel a mines, at Burke. The strike consists of one foot of carbonates carrying enormous
values in silver. Ordinary assays of this ore give a return of 1,260 ounces to the ton, and picked samples
range all the wav from 2,000 to ,000 ounces to the ton. . ,
In addition to this, two feet of crystallized lead ore has been exposed of an average assay value
of from 85 to 90 per cent. i . i .
The strike was made on a claim known as the Diamond Hitch, at the bottom of a 36-foot snart, and
at a distance of only 75 feet north of the Northern Pacific track.
The claims of the company were operated about 10 years ago by the Diamond Hitch Company, and
a little ore was shipped, but work on the property was given up, owing to the difficulty of keeping the
property clear of water. .
The principal owners of the present company are M. Maher of Burke, and Evan Evans of Spokane.
Great Porphyry Deposits.
The great porphyry dike of the Potlcle claims may be said to be almost identical with the reddish
or purple rock found in Upper Egypt, principally at
Jebel Dokhan, and much used by the ancients as dec
orative stone. This porphyry, the porfldo rosso antloo
of Italian antiquaries, consists of a dark crimson or
chocolate-colored felsltlc base, with dlsnenflnated crys
tals of white feldspar, probably oiigociase. it was
a favorite material with Roman . sculptors iinder the
lower empire, and, notwithstanding its excessive hard
ness was worked into large sarcophagi and other ob
jects, ornamented In some cases in elaborate relief.
This porphyry was also Ingeniously used for the lower
part of the busts of Roman emperors, the head being
executed In another material, while the pornhyry was
used for the drapery. While valuable, therefore, in
itself, In the region of Idaho's productive mineral belt
it Is considered the almost inseparable companion of
gold In its richest? territory.
" $169,051,275 Taken From Our Neighbor Mines.
Pause for a moment and contemplate these figures. There arei ten hundred thousand dollars in a
million, and MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-NINE TIMES TEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL
LARS HAVE BEEN MINED FROM THE COEUR D'ALENES ALONE! In silver this would weigh almost
FIVE) THOUSAND TONS I This la not guessing, but government figures. It Is from reports of the Direc
tor of the Mint, and THE PRODUCTION OF THE COEUR D'ALENES AT THIS TIME IS GREATER
THAN AT ANT PRIOR DATE IN HISTORY. The celebrated Snow Svtorm has 1,000 tons of ore blocked
out now, the Bunker Hill Sullivan is paying 1180,000 per MONTH in dividends, and every little while
distributes a bonus of the same amount. From here there is a perfect chain of mlneB and mineral passing
directly through our property, knitting together the Murray Gold Belt so cosely that there Is no more
chance of our being without the lone than there is a chance for the State of Idaho to disappear from the
American map. In fact. It Is estimated that there Is mineral enough in the Idaho mountains, peaks and
valleys to distribute f 100 each to every man, woman and child In the United States.
But What About the Poticie Mines?
This Is likely what Interests the reader of these llries. We own 220 FULL acres of ground 11 FULL
claims free from all Incumbrances, so far developed that we can epeak with the utmost confidence when
we predict that within a few months at most we shall be producing ore AS RICH AS ANY IN THE CAMP.
And that means the beginning of the accumulation of fortunes for our stockholders INDEPENDENT
FORTUNES for all those who hold stock In any great quantity, and plethoric Incomes for all according
to the investment.
A Portland Bank Clerk's Wisdom.
(Portland Evening Telegram, August 18, 1907.)
Robert F. Scott was a clerk in the First National Bank, Portland, for more than a dozen years. He
had apartments at the Newcastle rooming-house. Third and Harrison. Two years . a friend induced him
to place 1160 In the stock of the Mohawk gold mine of Goldfield, NeVada, from the sale of which three
months ago he realized the snug little fortune of $106,000, and ts now enjoying himself taking in the
sights of the Holy Land. To earn that much at bis desk in the bank would have required continuous labor
for more than 87 years, but the 1160 he Invested in gold mine stock represented but six weeks' work. The
reason the Mohawk people sold that stock waa to secure sufficient funds to develop the mine. This was
accomplished, and its shares are now soaring along at 117.60 each. In fact, mining stock profits In Gold
field have been so marvelous that It Is difficult t believe the truth concerning them. For example, (6
worth of Mohawk stock, procured when its shares' first were placed on sale could since have been disposed
of at $3,400; $10 invested then would since have brought $6,800; $20 then, $13,600 since; $40 then, $27,200
elnce; $80 then. $54,400 since; $100 then. $68,000 since; $150 then. $106,000 since: $200 then. $136,000 since;
$400 then, $272,000 since; $500 then, $340,000 since; $1,000 then, $680,000 since, and $2,000 then, the enor
mous sum of $1,360,000 since!
You can own an interest in
these eleven claims for ten
cents. You can own an inter
est likely to make you rich for
$100. You are in line for ab
solute independence at a cost
of $200, and buy on credit, too
The placer claims indicated have produced many
hundreds of thousands of dollars. Our engineer says
a big porphyry dykv runs through our property and a
contact between the porphyry and xiuartzite, carried
an enormous load of oxidized iron quartz, which is the
genesis of gold In the placer mines on either side of
our property.
Our assays show $59.47, $62.93, $46.56,
$29.96, $23.62, $240.71 and $108.56 to the ton.
Do you understand the meaning of these facts
and conditions?

We Are in the Boat the Mohawk Was In. -
We need some more money to now complete development of our property. We never offered a share
of Potlcle stock for sale until we had PROVEN that we had a mine. We did not sink a prospect hole and
then shout, "COME ALONG. BOYS, AND LET'S SEE IF WE HAVE ANYTHING!" Instead, we went
along" ourselves and bored tunnels into the mountain and paid the bills until we have -demonstrated the
fact that there are fortunes there for scores of people, and the 80.000 shares of stork we have put upon
the market will unlock the gates to the treasure beds and pull back the rocky curtains that have hidden
It from view tver since the dawn of time.
Tracks Laid and Cars Installed.
President Austin has Just returned from the mines. While there he witnessed the cornpletlon of the
track and installation of the ore cars. This improvement Is now complete, and If ever there was a mining
?roperty thoroughly equipped for perfect work at the smallest expense, ours Is that one. And as falth
ully as the pendlum of the clock swings to and fro does the development of our mine proceed, and
We Can Conceive of No Other Result Than That We Shall Pay, Beginning
Before Many Months, Dividends That Will Aggregate as Great on
Our Investment as That of the Famous Bunker Hill and
Sullivan or of any Other Mine Within the State.
But there Is one thing certain, these shares will not long be sold at present prices snd on present
terms. We sincerely believe that, within a year, this stock will be selling at as much as $1.00 the share.
And It will be our big dividends that will cause the rise. They are bound to come! No human hand can
long delay them. And they will Va so big as to smase our people.
They Will Confound the Pessimist and Fill the Optimist's Heart With Joy.
Then will Potlcle stock soar up as the eagle, and be sought for on every hand. It will be another
of the great money-makers of the West, and many will rejolf-e that they own Its shares. He who waa a
servant will be a servant no more, and he In practical bondage to ceaseless toll and comparative poverty
will lift his head In Independence and frown upon the weariness and languor of days agone.
