Colonel Parker, of Walla Walla, Strikes a Rich Vein on the Upper Waters of Rapid River Finds an Ideal Place for Gold Camp. Coloned Frank J. Parker, of Walla Walla, passed through town this morning on his return from tho Sovcn Devils country, In Idaho. Five weeks ago Colonel Parker left his homo In Walla Walla a sick man and today, after llvo weoks of rough ing It In the hills, ho Is tho very plc turo ot health and says he has not felt better in years. He went from his homo direct to Wclser, Idaho, which la an old stamping ground for tho colonel, ho having bcon In that country long be fore there was a town thoro. At Wel ser ho was Joined by two comrades and tho trio packed tholr provisions and camping outfit upon sorao horses Bnd left for the Soven Devils coun try. They struck Into nn unoxplorod region of theso rugged mountains, and finally reached tho head waters of Rapid Hlvor, whoro thoy pitched camp and proceeded to prospect for mineral. They found a vory promising quartz lead on this stream fivo mllea from ono of tho largest stamp mills In Ida ho. Tho placo shows unmistakable evidences of richness, according to tho colonel, nnd Is In an Ideal country to work a quartz claim. It Is sur rounded by a largo body of flno tim ber, with plonty ot water to oporate a mill or mlno and good facilities for tunneling. Colonel Parker nnd his comrades located four claims In tho vicinity, and tho puro quartr. ledges ho says, stick out from tho sides of tho moun tains 25 and 30 feet. Tho formation of tho country la nlso Ideal for rich mineral doposlts. On ono sldo of ths valloy tho formation Is llmo and the other Ih mica schist. Tho claims takon show a concen trating oro full of sulphates and as sayed $9 to tho ton, which Is vory fiattorlng for oro coming from tho top ot tho ground. Tho river running down tho valley and within a row yards of tho claims located will fur nish power for 100 stamp nillla If needed. All who haio seen tho oro, claim It Is tho richest yet found In that coun try, and predict thnt this section will develop Into a gTcat mining camp. Colonol Pnrkor will return home, havo his samples thoroughly tested, and return to hla prospects. Thoy aro easy of access during tho sum mer, but during tho winter, to reach them, ono will havo to mako tho trip up tho Salmon Itlver to tho Junction of Ilapld Itlver nnd up It to the claims. Tho colonel says thoy had a good tlmo hunting nnd flshtng, and that thoy found lots of gamo and fared sumptuously on wild moat. Ho claims to havo cnught one trout which measured four foot. This Is tho largest flBh story porpetnitod upon tho public for somo tlmo, but as the colonel tolls It for an nbsoluto fact, thero Is no way of getting around Its authenticity.
