F. 11. Si hcruiorhorn , agent of World's Fnir Commissioner Wells , was the discoverer of the surprising pheiiomoiiH , mid the scientists' report tiBrci.'i with the descriptions Klvon by Bchcrmorborn. Mr. Wcadall says ho and his companion pas ed over miles of territory that tmd never be fore re-cchooa the footsteps of modern man , though the discovery of pecu liar animals' bones led them to believe that nt BOIIIO period prehistoric bands of savages had mudo that unknown land taclr habita tion. Uontmulnp , Mr. Wondull said that the elicnca of the dark gorge * through which thny passed was simply appalling. Anlmuls Were scarce , anil in some instances the deer were so fearless that they would allow the explorers to come within n few fcot ot them. The beauty and crandcur of the scenery is unexcelled"anyxvhcro In the known world. The two men climbed one of the eleven high peaks that uro not marked upon the most carefullv compiled maps , iind as they as cended Its precipitous slouosthoy discovered many ledges of low Kructo gold and silver ores. Tiio cloven peaks wore snow capped , their summits towering ubovo the lluoof nor- petual snow. The glacial Held extended iOUU ! feet below the snow line , In area It tvas nearly as larpo as that of the Alpine gla cial Held , hut not as aocp Tlio ice was very dense , but was generally as clear us crj-Htal. Boueath It could ho scon a series of fifteen clocial lakes. After securing muny Dccltnons of the llora , fossil fuuna and min erals of the ghostly roelou , together with a ack full of the honeycombed human bouos , the naturalists returned to civilization via the town of Shonp. Old ! .cttlors say that the country visited \\eudallaudfanrslioldlias not been previously explored and prospected bccaubo it was the haunt for many yours of murderous Indians. Several minors who Wont out toward tuo snowy penks never re turned. Many woira tales of blood were re lated of the unknown laud during the past yours. Numerous parties huvo attempted to roach the distant mountains , but as thuy were mounted they coulu not penetrate thorough rough country. The ISliirK HUH.

They are now familiar to the millions of people in Europe ns well as America by the extensive production of the useful metals from tnelr numerous mines. Heretofore the Ideas of them by the poaplo at largo have been extremely VBKUO , classing them as a country tar mway on the outskirts of civilization , made famous only by tbo naventuros of Calamity Jnno nud the Deadwood coach. The days of ebsuurity buvo now passed and an era of prosperity has dawned for them of immense magnitude. Railroads have penetrated them from all directions , capitalists are buy ing mining properties and lands foreseeing the advanced values which a year's develop ment will brine forth. English capitalists are already forestalling tbo loss of the tin trade of America to them , ( amounting to over $20,000,000 a yeari , by investing largely In BlackHilU tin properties , which are believed can supply the worlo.

On their return trip they followed the Blue range for nearly 200 miles , covering a country that Is lltllo known and nterlng sorno fields that had never been prospected before , They say lucre is plenty of roonf for prospectors in tuoso regions. In southern luaho there has been lltllo work done since tbo placer mines were abandoned twenty years ago. Tbero are great quanti ties of rich quartz , but the people have n Btrango prejudice uzaiust quartz mlnlnc and it is almost impossible to arouse Interest In it In that country. So careless are they in regard to it that a valuable claim was located by these gentlemen loss tbuu a milo from Cation City this summer. Thuro is sotno romance attached to the Other prospect they located during their tourney. A quarter of n century aico Uyo brothers , frenchmen , were prospecting in the liluo mountains. Trouble arose with the Indians , Ono of tbo brothers was mur dered ; the other managed to crawl to a settlement , where ho soon died from wounds and exposure. Hidden in his tailored cloth ing was over 13,000 in gold dust , the prollts of u few weeks' tvorlc. The excited settler * began the search for the mine , but before it could bo traced a Uro swept over the moun tains , destroying every clow. For nearly thirty years the "Frenchmen's mlno" has boon the eoldcn riddle of that region. A few weeks ago a sboephoraer discovered tt and scut nolico to bis brother , who guided tbo Alexanders and u fourth man to the old mine. It is near Desolation creek , and bad only , been opened for un area of 0x10 feet. No tltro was lost In filing claims upon it , and the Idaho partners are preparing to develop their halt at ouca t'filflirutluc n Audi-lit Kvuut. San Diego , perched In the loutbvvest corner of California nnd wrapped in eternal Hummer , ranks close to St. Augustine , Fla. , in early settlement , The city celebrated during the past week the discovery of San Dlepo buy by Cabrlllo , 3.V ) years ago.

On tbo tongue of land that shuts off the bay from the Hotel del Coronado in oreetod ono of tbo finest and largest notals in tlia country. Sun Diego remained a sleepy Mex ican mission town for many years , but in IbOT an attempt was made to establish a now settlement tbero of wealthy people , and , on account ot tba de lightful climate , it was partially successful. . In Ibbft there was another and bigger boon ; when it was made the terminus of the South oru California railroad. Too citv bos since inorniban trebled in population and many > Uttuusomo residences bavo bcou erected espe cially In National City , which adjoins bun Diego , Tbero is still very little business uono but the people are sure that it will come to them , as San lloo Is 483 miles nearer U Now York than Sin Frapctico.

The San Francisco & Atlantic will not bo aided by a dollar of California money , Its promoters bolus all Boston and foreign friends of the Atchlson. bait Lake City merchants bavo volunteered to subscribe f r stock , but so far their offer has not boon accepted.

The recent explorations of Mount Kanior , known locally as Mount Tacoma , have stimulated a general dcslro to reserve It as a national park. Tne Commercial club of Tacoma proposes to push tbo movement to a successful conclusion. Lieutenant Frederick Schwatka , the explorer , is 10 be sent , us a preliminary , to malco a scientific exploration of the region of the great peak. The na tional government is to be nsKcd to make the approaches easy for the tourist , and the plan includes the laying out of parks in the foot- bills. Of course congress would be asked to appropriate tbo funds requislto , on the plea that Mount Tacoma can bo converted into ono of the most attractive spots In the coun try. The movement certainly moots with great favor. Ono object of tbo expedition mentioned is to map tbo roads and trails in tbo vicinity of iho mountain ana estimate the cost of improving them for the passage of horses aud vehicles.
