l started out to Inspect the work on
Kailroad avenue today and came across
a “dump” that seemed to indicate ex
tensive mining operations somewhere
in the vicinity.
So I followed up the wheelbarrow
tracks
To a dat k hole in the alley
Near the soon-to-be Tribune head
quarters
And climbed down to explore
The depths.
And there wasaxlrift extending west
with regular timberimr overhead, j
about a mile or more.
Maybe less.
And at the end it opened out into a
big gallery
And 1 says to the follow who was
digging:
Do you know that if you aren’t care
ful
___
You’ll got fined for excavating
Dmler the streets without a permit,
And he laughed,
And 1 said, say, why didn't your boss
tell me that Seward wa> to have a sub-!
way.
Or is this a placer prospect?
And be laughed.
and 1 got sore.

And climbed on a wheel barrow.
And peeped through a knot hole and
found I was under.

Looking into the picture show
From below.
Goodnight.
