FIND GOLD IN COFFEE POT
Workmens' Picks Strike Nuggets Hid
den by Dead Miners in an Ancient
Building.
Denver. Colo.-The moving of a
building fifty years old, in Brecken
ridge, resulted in workmen finding a
rusty coffee pot containing gold nug
gets worth more than $1,800. The
building was being moved to the rear I
of the lot on which it stood by Henry
Evans, who intends to erect a modern
brick structure on the lot. Immediate
ly after the report of the find hun
dreds of persons rushed to the scene,
and, because of their activity with
picks and shovels, workmen will not
be needed to finish the excavation.
The landmark, one of the oldest
buildings in Summit county, was built
of logs. In the early days it was occu
pled by Edward J. Collingwood, who
has since moved to Denver. Since I
then it has been occupied by various
individuals and firms as a store,
among them being G. B. Watson of
Breckenridge.
Evans was advised to tear the an
dcent structure down, and thus save
expenses, but, because of sentimental
reasons, he decided to nMove it to the
rear of the lot and to use the space
which it hald formerly occupied for
his new building. The moving of the
building entailed much digging, and
a force of laborers was put to work.
One of the workmen unearthed the
pot, and cast it on a pile of dirt. When
It struck, the lid flew off, and yellow
gold nuggets rained over the ground
The contents were weighed and placed
in a local bank.
Evans says that unless some one
claims the find, the proceeds will be
devoted toward building his new store.
Enthusiastic fortune hunters crowded
the site all afternoon, and Evans, after
watching them for a while, decided to
dispense with the services of the
workmen.
Various theories have been ad
vanced to account for the treasure, the
-ost popular one being that of the
rid-timers, who declare the gold was
hidden there by high gradera years
back in Indiana. Hall was a poor boy.

MEDIEVALISM OF THE FRENCH
Seeking Miraculous Cures at Grave of
Unorthodox "Saint" at Lit
tie Village.
Parie.--Fronm the little village of
Magny-sur-Tille, near Dijon, there
comes a story reminiscent of the su
perstition of the middle ages.
A few years ago there died in this
village an old woman named Francoise
Souvestre, who had the reputation of
being able to effect miraclous cures.
Her reputation survived her and her
tomb waa reputed also to possess
miraculous properties, which led to its
becoming a center of pilgrimage while
the dead woman was unofficially can
onized by inhabitants of the surround
ing districts.
Eventually the Bishop of Dijon was
compelled to prohibit the cult of this
unorthodox "saint," but to no purpose,
and recently the report was spread
about that Francdlse Souvestre's body
had resisted decay. This led to the
fanatical believers in the "saint" de
manding and obtaining authorisation
for the opening of the grave. The ex
humation took place last week in the
presence of two doctors, a notary and
some four hundred of the "faithful,"
the last named wearing medals and
rosaries.
When the coffin was opened the be
lievers were at first stupefied to behold a I
nothing but a skeleton. But tbeir sled
fanaticism immediately revived and in edg
hundreds they descended into the ton
grave, mingling the ashes of the de ball
funct with their handkerchiefs, their '
crosses, their crucifixes and their med- slil
ale in order to convert those into in- stal
struments of miraculous healing, cov

ago, who afterward either died or
were afraid to return for their loot.
In the opinion of the old miners, the
character of the gold indicates that
it came from Farncomb hill. which in
the early days produced hundreds of

BEAR WINS WRESTLING MATCH
Man Claims $1,000 for Broken Ankles,

Are Gone.
Springfield, Maass. - When David
Wagner, a muscular structural iron
worker, sauntered into a vauedville
theater the other evening, the owner
of a trained grisaly bear known as
"Big Jim," was inviting any of the
1,500 spectators to engage in a wrest

I has a side partner in the audience
whose duty it is to come f6rward with
alacrity when the challenge is issued
and to proceed to try conclusions with
the bear which is invariably victorious.

S$1,000 will be paid in case the bear
