SUDDENLY BECAME RICH. Canadian Miner Found a Monstrous Lump of Precious MetaL A prospecting miner returning, wear ried and disgusted, from an unsuccessful season, stumbled across a bowlder bo rich in gold that in an instant he ia a millionaire, says the New York Jour nal. It reads like a fairy tale, but it happens to be true. There is satisfactory evidence of the truth of Martin Neilly's wonderful find. It was on Monday, April 27, that Neilly was returning to Kossland, B. C, after an unsuccessful prospecting trip in the Salmon river district. He had reached the Columbia river at a point six m! cs north of Trail Landing, B. C, at about noon, and, selecting a site on the bank of the stream, at the foot of Lookout mountain, sat down to eat his dinner. As he munched his humble food ho uoticed a huge bowlder, half buried in the sand, in a dry portion of the river bed, not far from where he sat. When he had finished his meal he walked over to the bowlder, examining i1 in a casual manner, and then, as his experienced eye detected signs of the prec us metal for whieh he had vainly sought for months, he attacked the great gray mass with his pick, working with feverish energy. He almost swooned when a fragment of rock came away, showing distinctly the traces of gold and copper. "I am rich," he shouted. Then he proceeded to take specimens of the ore from a dozen places on the bowlder. staked out his claim, hurried into Rosf land, arriving late in the af ternoon.and recorded the claim. The next day he had his specimens assayed by different experts, who found that the ore ran in value all the way from four to Sfty eight dollars to the ton. When he told of his great fortune, there was a wild rush to the place. A surveyor accompanied Noilly to his bonanza, and, after making measure ments, declared that the bowlder weighed approximately 20,000 tons, and that, in round numbers, it will prove to be worth $1,000,000. cm nmn iitcp A Novelty from France That Closes Like an L'mbrolla. A novelty from France is a folding kite. Folded up it looks somewhat like a small rnHrd-up umbrella; ojened out ready to f'.y 'ts shape i like that of the kite commonly known us the bow kite It has a Kir.f-le upright stick, which is .'10 inches in length. The bow is formed of two lirht steel ribs, one on either side of the stick, which are raised into place and I owed into form, as tbe ribs ot an umbrella are raised; there are braces running from tbe ribs to a metnl band which slides on the stick, like the (sliding ferrule on the handle of an um brella; when the bow is ruised and in place it is held there by turning a little liu'lal button attached to the kite tiek under the bund to which the bnices are attached. A the rilw are raised their nner ends, where they meet at the stick, near the top, bow up into a light metal holder which projects slightly on either side of the stick and which holds the two parts of the bow in line. The, kite Uncovered with light muslin; they are used in covering the kites muslins of various colors, so that somt. of the kites are red, some blue, and so on. The tail Is of strinir wllh little lartl-colored bunches of muslin cut tings attached ulong its length, ns lit tle bunches of paper are sometime at' tached to string kit tnils; at the end there Is a little ling in which may b placed a mnrble or ot her weight, If more ballast is required, In a high wind, .
