LOST MINE OPENS GATES OF GOLD, @ Army of Gockroaqlm Leads En- gineer to Long Lost Mine Yago, Nayarit, Mexico, Jan, 13, Crawling cockroaches by the thous. ands recently led to the rediscove ory of a lost mine, fabulously rich in the days of the Spanish conquest, A young American mining engineer, Frank E. Davis, of San Francisco, found. the ancient bonanza. The old veln, measuring more than 16 feet fn width, was intact, It carries high values in silver and 80ld, and Is now being worked. The mine once was operated by Spanish padres In the time of Cortes, It had been lost for nearly 115 years, for the Spaniards abandoned it when they were forced to flce to Spain at the outbreak of the Mexican rebel- llon for ' independence in 1812, Church writings recorded it as one of the wealthiest producers of the day. The padres had christened It La Cucaracha, meaning cockroach, be- cause of its pecullar attraction for these creatures, which inhabited it in vast numbers, Before deserting the location, the Spanish operators scaled the en- trance and effaced outward signs of thelr labor, They expected to re- turn shortly. But they never came back, fér the Mexican rebels were victorious. The secret of the treas- ure-trove perished with the priests and was buried among the records of the early church, At the time of the revolution against President Diaz, when Amerl- cans were unsafe in many parts of the country, Davis, just out of col- lege, was in the wilds of Nayarit. He took refuge with an aged priest in the ancient church at Compostel- la, who concealed him in secret quarters of the crumbling mission. The priest confided in Davis some rare records of the mining opera- tions of the Spanish conquerors, among them a description of the famous Cucaracha mine, but the exact Jocation was not stated. For years after this Davis searched for the hidden mine, He falled to find a trace, but he did dis- cover near Yago, Nayarit, a virgin property righ in gold and silver. This was developed, but he never lost interest in his original quest. Months™ Jater Davis chanced on an old mine but a few hundred vards from the property he was ing. The heavy tropicai jungle had kept the sceret of the padres, Davis took men' and ropes and,was the first to be lowered Into the ruins. He had scarcely descended into the depths of the anclent workings when were live with cockroaches. His search was then over, for he had entercd the famous storehouse of wealth of | the smnnh padres.
