NELSON, Saturday. Albert Darwin Bromell, who set out alone on a gold prospecting expedition to Mount Owen on June 18, with one month's rations, and had sineo been given up as lost, made a surp.ise return late last night. The only details known yet are that he returned to his home at Tui and was very footsore. At the end of July search parties left Wangapeka in an effort to get. in touch with the prospector, but snow was so heavy and the country so t'eacherous that they returned and gave no hope for Bromell being able to live through this winter's exceedingiy heavy snows. However, the man has returned after being over three months out on the snow-covered hinterland.
