By “The Senator from Alaska”

THE glittering particles of worthless mica found in the sands of the many streams in the West and Alaska deceived innumerable untrained prospectors who had gone out, full of hope and ambition, to locate Nature’s hidden stores of real gold. Posting their location notices and believing that they were rich beyond even the fondest dreams of avarice, they hastened to the nearest mining camp there to celebrate their good fortune in days and nights of riotous spending. When they had exhausted their available cash and much of the credit they had gained by telling of their discovery, they retired to sleep off the debauch. Upon awakening, they were informed by some old-timer that what they had found was nothing but worthless fools gold.
