Col. A. E. Humphreys is the
man of this world.
Had lunch at Kaufman, and
dinner at Tyrell. Drove back to
dallas in the dark, and got to the
hotel at 10 P. M.
A very interesting day.
Humphreys is from Denver, and
has failed 2 or 3 times. An intense
promoter. Has struck his natural
fort at Mexico and expects to make
millions that he will give for mining
work. Was my sick a few years ago
and around if he got well again that
all the money he made he would give
to miners.
