call themselves a club and sell beer
without a county or revenue license.
The first public notice was given when
fifty warrants were sworn out before

agers of societies, which have held pic

HUNTING FOR WEALTH.
Farmer Mulford Believes That lie Will
Find a Fortune.
Stroudsburg, Pa., Aug. 11. A cavern,
thought to have been, made centuries
ago on the fawn of Julius M. IMulford
in the hill country, three miles back of
Dtngman's, has recently been discov
ered, and many people are visiting it.
A few day ago M, C. Mercer, professor
of archaeology of itho University of
Pennsylvania, came out from Philadel
phia for the purpose of seeing the won
ders of this cave or vault.
Mulfotd, Imbued with tho spirit of
Cortez, is firm In his belief that there
are gold and silver mines on his farm,
and has made extensive excavations at
different times In his search for the
precious metals. On one of the occa
sions the Cliff In question was the scene
of action and when they had broken
through the wall an arch ithree feet in
width and in helgth sufficient to admit
the ordinary man in stooping posture
appeared' before the astonished work
men. A careful examination of t hoi sides has
convinced 'Mr. Mulford that the place
had been made wLth human hands, and
that It was a vault in which great
riches had been stored by some un
known rare of people antecedent to the
Indians. He therefore set a compass
in the cavern and as the needle deflected
toward the east earner he began blast
ing the rock at that point and has now
a hole six or eight feet In depth and
several feet In diameter In that part of
the cavern. He thinks that he sees
plainly that the rocks have been placed
In position and have been firmly ce
mented together by cement of great
hardness, and believes that he will soon
reach the final partition wall and a
blast will reveal the wealth of a Croe
sus. P.rofessor Mercer carefully examined
every acute angle of rock and, ren
dered an opinion which did not ex
actly suit the enthusiastic Mulford, who
exclaimed: 'Gentlemen, I firmly be
lieve that this white mound or cliff, as
you call It, was made with human
hands and I'm going to know what's in
it as sure as my name is Mulford.
Didn't Cortes find wealth In Peru In
Just this manner?"
