extended from Mlnnesotn, across Ontario, to Lab
rador. Nobody but geologists mako tho state
ment with confidence. Thoy say theso moun
tains were tho oldest mountains on tho conti
nent; thnt they wero old when tho Rockies wero
yet unformed; that tho glacial drift and tho dis
integrating effects of untold millions of years
of heat and cold have worn them away until only
the "roots" remain; nnd thoy point to tho roots
as proof of their theory.
Tho roots are there. Anybody can sco them.
Bomo of them nro below tho surface, somo nxo
abovo Over most of tho roots nro a few feot
of earth, but, hero and there, a hugo shouldor of
rock thrusts itself nbovo tho surface; hero nnd
thcro n great ledgo plows Its wny through tho
forests nnd then disappears In tho marsh; and
nowhere can ono dig far without coming to rock.
A singular Incident explains, perhaps, why
these mountain roots wero not permitted to ro
nialn untouched for another hundred million
years. Tho Incident had its Inspiration in poll
tics. Tho Ontario government felt that It wns
losing strength with tho farmers. WIbo men In
tho ministry looked around to seo what could bo
done. Tho fnrmers In tho "clay belt" had been
clamoring for a railroad. Tho ministry decided
that It would bo good politics to grYa it to them.
So it was decided to build n rallrond from North
bay, on tho shores of Lake Nlplsslug, to connect
with tho gient transcontinental lino, under con
struction farther north.
t was while this railroad was building that

gard to who first

Is with regard to

America. Qcorgo
Hannormnn, how
over, appears to bo
the Columbus of
tho occasion. Dan
ncrman, an old
prospector, In July,
1909, scraped tho
mosB from n bit of
tho surfneo of a
projecting rock and
saw wet flakeB of
shining gold star
ing up at him fiom
tho quarts. But tho
first pteat discov
ery waB made by
n gang of prospec
tors lieadod by
Jnck Wilson. Wil
son, or ono of his subordinates-no two reports
on this point aro alike found tho great Domo
thnt bears Wilson's namo. Tho "Domo" Is , a
rldgo of rock, 550 feet long, 40 to 80 feet wldo,
20 to 30 feet abovo ground, and no ono yet knowB
how deep, that is heavily laden with gold. Pull
tho moss from It anywhere nnd thcro 1b gold.
Nothing In tho history of gold mining bettor
Illustrates tllo cccenrrlcltlcs of gold miners than
tho discovery of tho "Dome." Tho discovering
party consisted of threo men, headed by Jack
Wilson. Tho expedition was financed by a Chi
cago mnn named Edwards, who was engaged In
tho manufacture of lighting fixtures. Edwnrds
was to put up all tho money In return for a
half Interest in anything that might bo discov
ered. Wilson was to havo n quarter Interest and
each of the other two an eighth.
For several weeks they prospected, first to tho
east of Porcuplno lake, in Whitney township, then
to tho west, in Tlsdalo township. Thoy found
gold nnd stnked somo claims. Dut tho great
"Domo," although thoy enmped, somo of tho time,
within sight of It, nlmost escaped them. It wns
finally discovered, nccordlng to tho story that
Is generally belloved, only becauso ono of Wil
son's subordinates stumbled ncross It. Ho was
not a miner, know nothing about geology, but did
know enough to scrapo off moss. Also, ho hnd
eyes. When tho mosa wns" off ho could not help
seeing tho gold. Tho great rldgo that was henco
forth to be known ns tho "Wilson Domo" had
been found. Stakes wero driven and clnlm laid
to tho hugo boulder.
Perhaps tho most remarkablo story, however,
mado himself rich, mndo Cobalt, mado more- than that has como out of tho Porcuplno was told by a
a 6coro of multimillionaires and caused Canada, prospector named "11111" Woodnoy.

There 1b about as much uncortajnty with r- mado and thoy wanted to roturn in tho spring,
prospect tho country thoroughly and stnko out ev
erything In sight.
During tho following winter tho husband of tho I
womnn who waB so soon to becomo n widow was i
seriously Injured in a mill. In a few days he '
realized that death was near. Ho sent for tho two '
prospectors who had accompanied him to Lako i

"Doys," said ho, "I gncss I've got to die. I can't I
go back with you In tho Bprlng to stnko tho claims. I
I want you to promlso mo that if I dio you will glvo

Tho men promised. Tho wife heard them. Dut
sho didn't bellovo them.
Tho widow hnd told Dill who tho men wero.
Ho know them. Ho knew whero they wero work
ing. Dill hired out In tho snmo plnco. In tho courso
01 a f iw weeks ono of them told hlra that thoy woro
going n quit nt a certain tlmo In tho spring and
tnko a loi.s ennoo and hunting trip In tho country
far to tho north.
Thnt was good enough clow for Dill. Two weeks
before tho ni.nounced tlmo for tho men to stnrt I
Woodnoy quit his Job, packed his kit and started
for Lnku Abltlbl hlmBelf. I
When ho renched tho lako ho drew his canoe '
from tho water, hid It In tho "bush," na Canadians .
cnll a forest, and prcpnred to wait. I
On tho eighth day of his vigil, as ho waB peering
out of tho bushes, ho saw tho sight that ho had
waited so long to seo. Down tho placid river came
two canoes, cutting their wnys through tho cool
waters and lenving (Iatiron wakes in the rear.
Lato in tho afternoon Dill saw tho two specks
disappear In what seemed to bo nn Inlet.
Tho first night thero was no fire, but tho next ,
day Dill saw a bluo spiral of Bmoke curling from the
bushes back of tho lake.
For five dayB and nights tho fires burned. Then
thero was no moro fire, day or night. Evidently tho (
men had gone. Dill wnnted to bo Biiro, so ho waited ,
threo moro dayB. Than ho went down to tho lnka
whero his canoo wns hidden, put It Into tho water, '
took pains to observe that thcro was on tho lako
no sign of human lifo, thon Blowly paddled his wny j
along tho shore, looking for tho Inlet.
Dill was paddling as quietly as ho could when, at
tho "knucklo" of tho water finger a point whore
tho Inlet wnn not moro thnn 60 feet wide ho sud
denly saw on tho left bank tho two prospectors!
Tho next lnstnnt ono of them threw an ax at Dill's
canoo that nil but cut it In two and sunk It nB quick-1
ly ns n mine could sink a battleship. I
Woodnoy doesn't know yet why ho Is nllvo. Ho '
seemed to havo no chanco to live. It was twr i
against ono nnd tho ono wns In tho water. So were I
his food, his weapons nnd his tools. If ho wero not
murdered during tho next flccond It scorned certain
that ho. would atarvo during tho next month. Not
thnt ho thought out nil of theso things while ho was '
sinking. Ho thought out nothing. All ho did was to '
net first and think afterward. A fow strokes with t
his hands nnd n fow kicks with his foot put him
ngnlnst tho bank. No rabbit over took a trail faster '
than Dill took to tho brush.
Tho rest of this Btory can bo told In short sen
fences. Hunger, within the next forty-eight hours
drove Woodnoy Into tho very camp of the men
who would havo Blaln him. Ho crept up to them
lato at night, and stolo their food. Ho could not
stcnl much at n time, but ho Btole enough to keor
him alive. Ho stolo, not once, but threo times. The ,
