EXPEDITION WILL HUNT FOR GOLD IN EAST INDIAN AREA Thinks Jungles May Hold Hidden Fortunes in Precious Metals. London, England.--Belief that the mountains and jungles of the East Indies may hold hidden fortunes in precious metals similar to those found in the Philippines has led J. H. Marsman, mining financier of Maiiila and London, to extend his quest for gold to the islands of that archipelago. Marsman was an outstanding figure in the expansion of the Philippine mining industry, which mounted sensationally from an annual production of a few million pesos to 44,000,000 pesos ($22,000,000) in half a decade. * Success in* his Philippine enter-; prises led him to Organize the Marsman Hong Kong China company.

Ilk proceeded to form the Marsmans Algemeene Maatschappy, which will explore properties in Sumatra, Borneo, Java and the Celebes, and other East Indian islands, as soon as legal formalities of the organization are completed in Holland. Marsman disclosed shortly thereafter his intention tb form another New Guinea company, to explore possibilities there, where new gold finds are reported. The first is "a 1,000,000 guilder company, and the New Guinea enterprise Will be a 2,000,000 concern, with Dutch, Britisl) and Philippine capita] interested. "There are vast areas in the East Indies where little is known of the mineral resources," Marsman told the United Press. "But enough gold and other metals have been found to arrant the hope that these islands ight be susceptible to mining exsion paralleling that of the Philippines." * More Technicians Available. - The boom in Philippine mining will aid in the development of mines in neighboring countries, he be- | lieves, because the industry there has accumulated a group of technicians who are available for prospecting and exploring in other nearby regions.

The lijriks already established between mining enterprises in the Philippines and neighboring countries will tend to encourage the interest of British and Dutch capital in the Philippines, Marsman believes. The British have shown considerable interest in Philippine mining, although Marsman estimated that not more than 5 per cent of the total capital invested in Phijjppin<» mines was British. '• ""Winn Boy Dead Five Minutes; Adrenalin Restores Him Youngstown, Ohio. -- Little nineyear- old Sam Maile is alive to tell of the time recently when he was dead for fitfe minutes. Sam became ill with scarlet fever, and then pneumonia set in. He kept growing weaker. One morning his father, who had stayed up with him all night, had gone to bed, and his mother was downstairs, and the nurse was alone with him.~It was 7 a. m. Suddenly the nurse noticed an odd expression on the boy's face. She felt for his pulse. It had stopped beating. A few minutes later when the boy's father returned with a doctor, Sam had begun to turn blue. The doctor administered adrenalin. It was a tense scene while the small circle waited to see the •effect. Then Sam's eyes began to flutter, arid finally opened. Satn said he could remember nothing which might have occurred in the five-minute interval. Sam's doctor insists that Sam's heart really did stop, that the boy was for one-twelfth of an hour. Fortress 700 Years Old Found Under the Louvre Paris.--The need for more underground space in Paris' famous Louvre museum has led to the discovery of the walls of a fortress, which was built 700 years ago* by King Philip Augustus. Workmen were digging under the Pavilion de l'Horologe while cutting a subterranean passage and an underground room when they found the ancient walls. The wall which was found is pierced by a long corridor which it is calculated stood at about the height of \he moats. It is believed by archeologists that the corridor was used to allow men-at-arms to go from the defense towers to the guard rooms without crossing the open court. .
