" One More Grubstake. Taylor now is eking out a living ving toward ene more grub- prospecting and placer min- s Gold Dust, N. Mex., with a ve machine he calls “the poor concentrator.” But he is re- puted to have mined on a vast scale at various times in his life and to 5 3 big mineral fortunes. when an this part i with paid many of or of his community rly in the seventies an Indian griend told young Tayl ould lead him (o “heap much gold.” They out- fitted and penctrated the wild San o Matillo Mountain country. Finally they reached a spot from where the redskin pointed to a streak of red earth, much like brick dust, and grunted dramatically: ““Here heap much gold!" Taylor was disappointed to see no trace of gold in it. He was then ig- norant of metallurgy. However, he wrapped some of the stuff in a hand- kerchiet and threw it into one of his pack bags. They returned to Silver City, N. Mex. One” day months later Taylor was cleaning his bags and found some of the red dust. Idly rubbing it between his palms he suddenly noticed many particles of fine gold appearing as the coarser grains broke away. He went to an assayer to learn that the dust tested $2,100 gold to the ton. In the meantime his Indian guide had died. And for 50 years Taylor has fajled to relocate the treasure spot again. i CANDY SHOWS BACTERIA. Human Handling of Blamed by Scientist. BUFFALO, N. Y., October 14 (#).— Of 1,138 pieces of candy purchased in the open market, 29 were found to contain bacteria from the human | Intestine, Prof. John Weinzirl of the | University of Washington, Seattle, told a_group of food and drug experts attending the American Public Health Association yesterday. Discussing his experiments, Prof. Weinzirl said that sticky eandies and those made from uncooked materials showed the greater gontamination. In iInstances where the candy was not handled, but was means of a scoop, there seemed to be less contamination from bacteria.
