Thought to Have Unearthed Rich
Pockets on Head of Meacham Creek
Visited One Revlon for Eight Sum
mers Made no Acquaintances and
Told No Tales.
A romance of no little Interest Is
thought to be locked up In the actions
of an old prospector who regularly
visited the Blue mountains for seven
or eight summer 4 up till last t'-ason,
when he railed to put in an appear-ance.
Ho was a veteran prospector or tho
'49 typo, with grizzled board and
long hair and each season of the eight
years ho visited the region between
Kamcla and the summit of Mt. Emily,
which forms the western border of
Grando Hondo valley, he rodo tho
Bame grey mare, nnd led with him the
same heavily-laden pack mule.
He was a very rctlcont man and
talked to no one. He would appear
at Knmela about June 1, lay in a
large supply ot smoking tobacco and
baking powder, and would men disap
pear on the tlmbor trails as mysteri
ously ns he enme.
No one thought mucn or his visits
until C. T. Taylor, who was formerly
O. R. & N. agent at Kamela, learned
from tho old man that he was a pros
pector and that ho spent at least four
month each year In tho deep recesses
at tho headwaters of Meacham creek
and Dry creek that runs by Summer-
vllle.
No one over thought of following
him to see whore he worked or what
he did during those three or four
months, ns mountaineers aro accus
tomed to this kind of transient men
and think nothing of their mysterious
actions.
Since lie has ceased to visit this
section, those who remember him very
well, nnd who hnve found some of
the evidences of his work in tho deep
canyons of the Blue mountains have
found out that he was a "pocket
hunter," and that he wbb so well re
warded for his summer s work that
ho quietly returned each year to pur
sue his search.
The discovery of coavsu gold in the
small streams that run down tho
sides ol Mt. Emily, has led old miners
to believe that this grizzled old vet
eran wns literally loading a pad;
mulo with coarse gold and nuggets,
from hidden "pockets" In that remote
district.
His visits nro now recalled with
keen interest by old residents of Ka
mela. who wish now they had in
quired more thoioughly into his voca
tion.
At many places in the region he
prospeciod over Ills old camps, have
been found by hunters nnd tho deep
cut ditches and peculiar marks of an
expert "pocket hunter" have been
stumbled on to In the most inaccessi
ble canyons.
During the eight years ho prospect
ed In that region, the only real ac
quaintance ho formed was with C. T.
Taylor, who kept a small stock of
goods nt Kamela. Ho did not recoivo
a letter nt any time, nor write one
while in the mountains, so far tin Ik
known, and his whereabouts now are
absolutely unknown.
He Is thought to huvo been one or
that rare class of miners who make a
specialty ot hunting rich pockets,
and who study the topography of n
country with no other view than that
of locating pockets of gold. Whon
they strike It right, they strike it
rich, but often search for years
without making a single find.
Tho moat famous "pocket hunter"
or Eustern Oregon, is "Kanaka Sam,"
n Panama negro, who lives nt Spar
ta, In Baker county and who has un
covered some ot the richest pockets
or gold over found In the Inlnnd
Empire,
He hns no system, no regularity.
He Just hunts, that's all.
SCAB AT SHANIKO.
Seventeen Carloads of Sheep Held by
Inspectors,
A speclnl stock train consisting of
15 carloadB of shcop, loaded at Shan
Iko and billed to Omnha. passed over
tho 0. R. & N. last night.
Thoro would have been 32 cars In
this shipment, but upon arrival at the
oinni- vnniu tliR government Inspec
tor found part or them to be Infected
-m, tin. scab. In a light form and
held 17 cnrloads ror further tlevelo-
nients. These Infected slieop are nu
lng dipped today and will have to bo
held for 10 days before shipment.
It was thought by stockmen that
the scab had been completely stnmp
ed out In the Shanlko district and this
Instance conies as a surprise.
