If the applications aro accepted and after tho
medical examination certifying to tho physical

"It is now n well-known fact that
wherever I havo Introduced my Nsw

plo havo brought Internal parasites, or
tapoworniii, to mo. In ninny cases theso
people did not know tho nature of thu

FOUND THE LOST MINE
For years and years tho prospectors In Sonorn,
Mexico, havo been searching for tho second ot
what has been recorded In history ns tho "twin
lost mines." In certain old records of the early
missions mention Is made of two certain lost
mines. The names undor which tliev are record
ed, like tho names of most of the inlsMmis estab
lished under the Spanish crown, do not corre
spond with nny known landmarks today nnd
henco only relntive location can bo used as a
basis for exploration.
When tho San Pedro mlno, locnted south of
Nacozarl, was discovered somo years ngo, with
Its old underground workings, It Is llrmly be
lieved that one of the two lost mines had been
discovered. Now It seems probnblo that tho sec
ond uleo lm3 been locnted nnd In tho bolt Indi
cated In the ancient documents. Even If tho
second of the famous lost mlnos has ;iot been
discovered an antlgua mlno of great ngo has been
found, with proofs enough to Indicate that It has
not been worked for many years.
Tho discovery waa mado by John Gullfoylo, a
well-known pioneer mining prospector of Naco
zarl. When nut west of Nacozarl about ten miles
ho enmo across a piece of detached oro, which
ho picked up and examined. He spent many days
looking over the neighboring ledges In tho hopo
of coming across tho mother lode. But his search
was in vain. Meantime ho brought In tho sped
iueu of ore nnd was surprised to find thnt It ran
1,870 ounces of sliver to the ton, with good values
In gold. This assay ran bo high that ho returned'
to tho district and continued his soared, Whllo
using u steel in a crcok bottom ho found rock
almost at the surfuco. but continuing his sound
ings he suddenly Btruck a spot whero tho steel
rank several feet.
Gullfoylo knew that tho rock formation could
not have ended so nbruptly nnd ho began to ex
cavate. Ho uncovered a long cut in tho solid
rock of the creek bed which hold down stream
aud which could not have been cut there whon
the water was (lowing In tho present creok bed.
As ho progressed ho found old Btono Implements,
Including stono hammers, hatchets, nnd finally ho
came across a great ancient inatcta or stono bowl
In H'Ulch tho ancient workup pulverized the na
tive ores before smelting In their crui'-' dobo fur
naces. Later ho uncovered matetas, nil mado of
a hard (lint rock, which must havo been brought
Into tho district from n considerable distance, as
there Is no flint of this hardness near the mlno.
After pursuing bis work for several days, tho drift
in the. rock led Into tho oro lodgo, but tho old
workings were found to bo closed up solid with
Bilt.
Gullfoylo pursued his Investigation nnd found
under tho soil on tho creek upland tho romalns
of an old Blag dump. As Is customary with tho
prospectors In Sonorn, Gullfoylo at onco had this
Blag assayed. On nccount of the primitive meth
ods of Bracking employed by the ancient work
men the slug found on these old dumps Is usually
rich enough to bo worked over again In the mod
ern smelters, which leave nothing of value In tho
slag, but, strango to noto, in this case the slag
was found to be absolutely worthless, Indicating
thnt at this mine the pulverizing of tho ore had
assisted In the extraction of tho metal values
Tho antique smelters also knew a lot about tho
UBO- of certain chcmlcalti In the extraction of
metal from tho ore and nt thin mlno probably ono
of those processes was used In connection with
tho furnace only fragments of tho foundation of
which were found by excnvallon.
Tho finding of tho stono tools has caused con
Hldorablo Interest among thoso of an archaeolog
ical turn of mind. Tho Spaniards wwro exports
In tho manufacture of steel, eo that tho toolB were
not used by them. Tho supposition Is that an
Indian trlbf worked this mine and thnt this tribe
probably operated following tho Invasion and oc
cupation of the Spanish adventurers. It Is well
known that there Is a long gap between tho six
teenth nnd eighteenth conturlcs whero tho history
of Old Mexico nno thnt district now Including Ar
zona an'i New Mexico Is missing, probably bo
causo tho missionaries, finding that tho crown of
Spain robbed overy mine reported, ceased to
mako report of thorn. In 1720 the Indians killed
nil tho mlno workora In Sonora and Arizona and
many mines abnndoned nt that tlmo havo boon
lost to tho world Sonora has many mines which,
on opening, aro found to bo nntlguas nnd many of
them are very rich.
