THE OMINEGA MINER, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 11g

The Latest Discovery
A Prospector died of fever and chills
Whilst packing over the Skeena’s hills,
Tho’ his sing on earth were recorded-on high
**Twas the work of his hands they judged him by |
—So Saint Peter, ip pity, helped off with his pack
And a pair. of wings teok its place on his back,
But the harp! He never had learned that trick:
So the Prospector elung to his battered pick.
He mixed with the crowd and scanned each face,
Some former companion trying to place.
At last he paused neath a bright street lamp _
And said ‘‘I’m the only prospector in camp,
“It’s never heen prospected—I’d better begin,”’
And on the golden street he started in.
The very first stroke of his pick showed pay
And the Prospector said, in his hungry way,
““They’ve walked right over it all this while,
“Jest like oldtimers over Nine-Mile.
‘They've gone lots farther and fared lots worse—
“Say! I reckon this will make Old Bill curse -
“As he’s shoveling coal and being told
“That I’m up here, just lousy with gold,”
Then he added, as he slyiy laughed,
“Tl start right in and gink a shaft.”
Now, the angels heard and forgot to sing,
The only sound was the monotonous ring.
Of the drill of the Prospector old -

the same old price, 25 cts, a share, one-
quarter cash if desired, the proceeds to be

As he fiercely wrecked that street of gold,
Saint Peter came, with an angry frown,

To the mouth of the shaft, and shouted down,.
“Hey, old man! This work must be stopped.”’

{old one,

Saint Peter was worried,

Looked down, and said: .
You working on that?

“It’s richer than this,

“That’s just my luck,

—— “There’s my stakes!—There’s my name!
‘None of you angels can jump this claim,
“I found it fair, and I’m goin’ to stiek,’?
Then he went back down to his drill and pick.

He summoned his friends and the angels all,
And their haloed heads were racked for a plan
To rid themselves of that troublesome man.
At last, in despair, one did volunteer Y
To tell the Prospector a story clear
Of a wonderful strike just made afar
—The pearly gates to be left ajar

_ So that the miner could wander at will
And try his luck-on Tag Otuer Hitt—
So he loitered around the prospect hole,

“Of the strike Old Bill made a week ago? .
The lead’s twice as wide.”
The old man shook his head and sighed

Bill struck it, Bh?

“Well, I'll hustle right down and take a lay.’

So he gathers his dunnage, drills and picks,

And hikes for the north fork of the Styx.
