A FACETIOUS GOLD-HUNTER.
Mark Twain's Experience as
Pocket Miner.
The Forgotten Claim—An Inoident
Which Probably Turned the
Humorist from Miuing to
Literature.
The position of the pocket-miner a
mong the other inhabitants of a mining
region very much resembles that of the
bee-hunter among the people of the
frontier settlements in agricultural re
gions. The business he follows also
has several poiuts of resemblance to
that of the bee-hunter. The trail fol.
lowed by one leads him to the tree stor
ed with sweets, and that, of the other
ends in a pocket of sweetest gold. The
man who becomes an expert bee-hunt
er is likely to remain a bee-hunter al l
his Jays, and the same may be isaid of
the pocket miner.
Mark Twain's narrow escape from be
coming a pocket miner has never been
told. It is worth recording, as it gave
him the'story of the 'Jumping Frog,'
and sent him off along the line of tlie
literary load and set him to scratching
therein for pockets of fun.
It 188& Mark wearied of Bohemian
life in San Francisco and went np into
the mining regions of Calaverans coun
ty to rnsticate with some old friends-
Steve, Jim and Billy Gillis. Jim Gillis
waft, and still is, one of the most expert
pocket miners in California. Although
adncated with a view eventually to
fight the battle of life as a physician,
and though still finding solace in his
leißnre moments in the works of Greek
and Latin authors reposing on a shelf
in his cabin, Jim Gillis is booked for
life as a pocket miner. The business
has charms for him that he cannot
break away from— he is bound to it in
chains of gold ■ Show him a particle of
quartz gold on the side of a mountain,
and.if it came to where it was found
through the process of accidents of na
tal* undisturbed in any way by tbe in
terference of man,he will as unerringly
trace it to its source as the bee hunter
will follow the bee to its hoard of
sweets.
Mark Twain found the Bohemian
style of mining practiced by the 'Gillis
boys' mnch more attractive than those
more regular kinds which call for a
large outlay of muscle. He and Jim
Gillis took to the bills in search of gold
pockets and spent some days in work
ing np the undisturbed trail of an un~
disturbed.deposit. They were on the
golden 'bee line' >nd stuck to it faith
folly, though it was necessary to carry
each sample of dirt to a small stream,
in the bed up a canyon in order to pan
it out. Each step made sure by golden
grains,they at last came upon the pock
et which had thrown those grains off.
It was a cold, dreary, drizzling day
when the 'home deposit' was found*
The sample carried to the stream and
washed out yielded but a few cents. Al
though the right yein had been discov
ered, they had as yet not found the 'tail
end'of the pocket. Returning to the
yein, they dag a sample from a new
place, and were about to carry ii down
to the rayine and test it when the rain
began to pour down heayily. With
chattering teeth Mark declared he
would remain no longer, lie said there
was no sense in freezing to death, as,in
a day or two, when it was bright and
warm, they could return and pursue
their investigations in comfort. Yield
ing to Mark's entreaties, backed as
they were by bis blue nose, humped
back, and generally miserable and de
jected appearance, Jim emptied the
sacks of dirt upon the ground,first hav
ing hastily written and posted up a no
tice of their claim to a certain number
of feet on the vein, wbicb notice would
hold good for thirty days. Angels'
camp being at no great distance from
the spot, while their cabin was some
miles away, Mark and Jim strnck out
for the place. The only hotel kept in
the little mining camp was kept by one
Coon Drayton, an old Mississippi river
pilot, and at his house the pocket min
ers found shelter. Mark Twain having
formerly followed the business of pilot
on the Mississippi river, be and Coon
were soon great friends, and swapped
scores of yarns. It continued to rain
for three days, and until the weather
cleared np Mark and Jim remained at
Coon's hotel.
The story of the 'jumping frog' was
one of the yarns told Mark byCoon dur
ing the; three days'session,and it struck
him as being so comical that he deter
mined to write It up. When he return
ed to the Gillis cabin, Mark set to work
upon the frog story. He also wrote
some sketches of life in the mountains
and mines for some of the San Francis
co papers.
Hark did not think much of the frog
story, even after it had received the fin
ishing touches. He gave the preference
to some other sketches and sent them
to the papers for which he was writing.
titeye,Gillis, however, declared that the
frog story was the best thing Mark had
written, and advised him to saye it for
a book of sketches hp was talking of
publishing. A literary turn haying
been given: to the thoughts of the in
mates of the Gillis cabin, a month pass
ed without a return to the business of
pocket mining. *
While the days were passed by J Mark
and his friends in discussing the merits
of the •Jumping Frog' and other liter
ary matters, other prospectors were not
idle. A trio of Austrian miners who
were in search of gold-bearing quartz
happened upon the spot where Mark
and Jim had dug into their ledge. It
was but a few days after Twain and
Oillis had retreated from the place in
the pouring rain. The Austrians were
not a little astonished at seeing the
ground gutter with gold.
Where the dirt emptied from the
sacks, bad been disolved and washed a -
way by the rain, lay some three ounce*
of bright quartz gold, The foreigners
were not long in gathering this,but the
speedy discovety of the notice forbade
their delving into the deposit whence it
came. They could only wait and 'watch
and pray.' This hope was that the par
ties who had posted up tho notice would
not return while it heUl good.
The sun that rose on the day after
the Twain-Gillis notice expired saw the
Austrians in possession of the ground,
with a notice of their own conspicuous
ly and detiantly posted. The new own
ers cleaned out the pocket, obtained
from it, in a few days, a little over $7,-
500.
Had Mark Twain's backbone held
out a little longer the sacks of dirt
would have been washed andithe grand
discovery made. He would not have
then gone to Angels' camp and would
probably never have heard or written
the story of the 'Jumping Frog,'the
story that gave him his first boost' in
the literary world, as the 'Heathen
Chinee' gave Bret Ilarte his first lift
up the ladder. Had Mark found the
gold that was captured by the Austri
ans, he would have settled down as a
pocket miner. He would never have
given np the chase, and till this day,
gray as a badger, he would have been
pounding quartz, with Jim Gillis as his
'pard' in a cabin somewhere in the
Sierra Nevada mountains.

closefisted old fellow to a city editor, 'if
you would express my thanks, through

my house from being destroyed by fire.'
'Certainly,' replied the editor, 'I will
express your thanks, but it will be ne
cessary for you to advance about a dol
lar and a half to|prepay the expressage.'

FOR THE CURE OF
FEVER and AGUE
Or CHILLS and FEVER,
AND ALL MALARIAL DISEASES.
The proprietor of thii celebrated medi
cine justly claims for it a superiority over
all remedies ever offered to the public for
the SAFE, CERTAIN, SPEEDY and PER
MANENT cure of Ague and Fever, or Chills
and Fever, whether of short or long stand
ing. He refers to the entire Western and
Southern country to bear him testimony to
the truth of the assertion that in no ease
whatever will it fail to cure if the direc
tions are strictly followed and carried out.
In a great many cases a single dose has
been sufficient for a core, and whole fami
lies have been cored bya single bottle, with
a perfeot restoration of the general health.
It is, however, prudent, ana in every eaee
more certain to cure, if its nee is continued
in smaller doses for a week or two after the
disease has been checked, more especially
in difficult and long-standing cases. Usu
ally this medicine will not require any aid
