Nearly every quarter of the globe is represented among the 500 who work there. In so great a crowd men toil daily side by side and know littl of each other's lives more than is revealed by a chance remark. A strange story is told of how fate shifted two men about the heterogoneous crowd and after nearly a year brought them close eriough together to discover that they are brothers. Nels. Gunderson was born in Norway. Twenty-three years ago he said goodby to his parents and his baby brother Fred and joined a party of emigrants bound for America. In the lumber camps of Wisconsin and Minnesota Nels learned the ways of the Americar, He drifted westward to Washington, tired of the country, and finally became an employe in the Keswick smelter. His father and mother died some years agoand Nels ceased communication with his native land. Four years ago Fred, now grown té6 manhood, followed his brother across the ocean. knocked about the East, came to California, ‘and a year ago was given a job in the smelter of the Mountain Copper Company. Two weeks ago some changes we.e made in the sleeping quarters of . the men. Nels and Fred were placed in the same bunk house. Several days ago they became intimately acquainted, found that each was named Gunderson, that each'was born in Norway, found that they are brothers. COUGHLAN'S CASE. The Grand Jory is Now Investigating the Matter. The case of Joseph J. Coughlan, of Nevada City, recently arrested on a charge of perjury, the specification being that in securing a marriage license he swore his age was 21 years, while as la matter of fact he was but 19, was called in the City Justice Court Monday morning, says the Record-Union.

Nearly every quarter of the globe is represented among the 500 who work there. In so great a crowd men toil daily side by side and know littl of each other's lives more than is revealed by a chance remark. A strange story is told of how fate shifted two men about the heterogoneous crowd and after nearly a year brought them close eriough together to discover that they are brothers. Nels. Gunderson was born in Norway. Twenty-three years ago he said goodby to his parents and his baby brother Fred and joined a party of emigrants bound for America. In the lumber camps of Wisconsin and Minnesota Nels learned the ways of the Americar, He drifted westward to Washington, tired of the country, and finally became an employe in the Keswick smelter. His father and mother died some years agoand Nels ceased communication with his native land. Four years ago Fred, now grown té6 manhood, followed his brother across the ocean. knocked about the East, came to California, ‘and a year ago was given a job in the smelter of the Mountain Copper Company. Two weeks ago some changes we.e made in the sleeping quarters of . the men. Nels and Fred were placed in the same bunk house. Several days ago they became intimately acquainted, found that each was named Gunderson, that each'was born in Norway, found that they are brothers. COUGHLAN'S CASE.
