The mine is said to be the greatest gold discovery that has been made on the coast in many years and In Josephine county—an cient stamping ground for the argo nauts and the prospectors- there is considerable excitement. A man named Anderson looked over Sucker crock in Illinois valley, near Holland, Josephine county, about seven miles north of the Cali fornia lino. Anderson found some good stuff and traced it up the moun tainside for a ways, but then lost it. Ho staked out a claim. Then his partner. "Dry Wash" Wilson, and Anderson cleaned up ¡between |200,- 000 and 3300,000, according to re port Anderson wrote his old friend Boswell in Montana. Inviting hint to coipn to Josephine county, as "it’s a nice looking country.” Roswell ar rived and asked where ho should stake a claim. "Anywhere," an Id Anderson, so Roswell staked out the claim adjoining Anderson's. Within 20 feet of Anderson's line Boswell found his gold He and his boy did a little ¡mining by hand.

Boawell and his son took about 350,000 from the mine and then the] son was drafted into the army. The father promised the son that he] would not work the mine until his I son returned The 'boy was sent, overseas and died in France. The father, refusing to consider that dhath canceled the contract with his boy, kept the mine closed and did not take an ounce out of it. Mr. Boswell let it be understood that! while he would not work the pro perty, he would sell it for about 3100,000. A few months ago a chap named Norden opened negotiations with Boswell. He fould a man who would advance some money, 310.000, and with an agreement to put up another 340,000 in 30 days. Boswell gave an option. When Roswell permitted Norden to enter the mine. It was quickly seen that a regular mine was in sight. In about nine days 330,000 In gold was taken out. ¡At 20 feet the vein was 12 Inches wide of high-grade and 23 Inches of quartz, worth 3125 a ton.

The French government, after a careful investigation by a commission of expert«, has officially accepted the machine and has set i aside a substantial sum of money for ¡the immediate improveent of the in- i vention.

The helicopter, described simply ¡without attempt at technicalities, is a machine constructed of a series of ' horizontal planes revolving in oppo site directions. On the Pescara ma chine, a base similar to that of a low slung automobile is used. On this is built two series of horizontal planes, each series composed of ten planes. The usual airplane motor starts the planes and the effect is to make the machine rise straight up from the ground. Pescara is conducting experiment» at Barcelona. Spain, where the French army commission has spent several weeks in observation. His career has been romantic. Employed in experimental laboratories of the Italian government before the war. Pescara came to Paris soon after the beginning of the war and continued his work under army supervision. He was credited with hundreds of in ventions. among them a dirigible which flew over the enemy lines and dropped bombe at stated intervals. Suddenly at the height ot Pescara’s success, the French police arreeted him as a spy and he was kept in prison for several months. The French ministry of war protected his innocence and obtained his release on condition that he be deported. He left for Spain and soon after the ar mistice began his helicopter experi ment«.
