TUTTLETOWN. Cal., Oct. 18.—
Temporarily at least, lean days are
upon Ulis part of the old Mother
Lode country that the miners of ’49
worked over, washed out and then
abandoned; that Mark Twain and
Bret Harte recreated and made ad-
ditionally famous with their humor
and then forsook for more effete
fields.
For miles along the gulches and
streams one finds the crumbling
remains of the cabins and works
of the higji old days when gold
could be sluiced from the surface,
and old stamp mills, sun-bleached
and decrepit, stand out in rusty idle-

The ball plajrerx who wcra wlti-

seemed to think that Lindstrom
had the edge on all the other can-

as one of the outstanding workmen
