STRUCK 1T RICH.
Prospectors Hit Upon Rich Quartz
Ledge Near Auburn.


Ledge Near Auburn.
A few weeks ago a couple of Auburn
men who were out of work conceived the
idea OF doing little prospecting among
the hills in that vicinity, Notwithstanding
the fact that men had been prospecting
ever since 1S49.
These two men learned from Mr.. Ack-
erman, who owns a ranch some three
miles east of Auburn, that there was a
quartz ledge on his place from which con-
siderable gold was taken in the hfties,
and they asked his permission To renew
work thereon. He consented, the agree
lnent being that he was TO receive per-
centage of whatever gold they might take
out.
A couple of Auburn merchants agreed
to provide the necessary grub stake" Tor
the men-that is, provide them with eat
ables, ETC., and they set at work. They
sunk shaft on the ledge, and when they
had got down twenty feet they struck
rich rock, from which several thousand
dollars was taken by rude process OF re-
duction.
The Ackerman ranch adjoins that for
merly owned by John b. Hobson, the
well-known mining man, now the prop
erty of L. w. Sheehan and ). Il. Caring
ton. Hobson always said there were
good quartz lodges on the latter ranch,
and in that vicinity many rich pockets
have been struck in years past.
1t is not unlikely that this new strike
will have the effect of creating quite a
mining boom in that locality,

plains the purpose of the railroad COM
pany in selecting the proposed site for
the new bridge to be the removal OF the
depot over to Third and Ii streets. This
would give more room for tracks for the
handling of trains and for the extension OF
shop buildings.
1t would, of course, also insure the
filling in of China Slough and the max
ing of other improvements IN that To-
eality.
Ever since the new bridge proposition
came up two years ago it was known that
the company intended to erect 1t just
north of the old City Jail, and the possi-
BILE sale of that property was referred 10
at that time in the local press.
Colonel Wright explained the situation
very clearly yesterday. He said 1t was
necessary, owing to the increasing busl-
ness of the company, to get the depot out
OF the center of the railroad yard. This
would not only permit the extension OF
shop buildings, but an increase in the
track area. The depot must be at one
side of the switchyard, or over near l
street at some point between Second and
Sixth.
If the bridge had to be erected at
point farther north than the present one,
that would necessitate the removal of the
depot out to Sixteenth or Twentieth
streets - beyond the switch-yards. 1t
would also necessitate the construction Of
an approach to The overhead wagon-way
q aquarter of a mile long over the tops OF
the shop buildings.
By erecting the bridge at point short
distance north,of the City Jail the ap-
proach to the wagon-way need extend
only to Second street, and then the pas
senqer depot could be erected somewhere
about on the line of Third street. The
slough would be filled in, and the tracks
that are now confined to the narrow space
north of the depot could be extended so
as to utilize all the space north of the new
depot site. The fact is. the company must
have more track room, even If it has to
locate the depot east Of Twelfth street.
If the bridge has TO be erected near the
site of the present one, il is clear that
there can be no appoach to an overhead
wagon-way, and the county would have
to construct wagon bridge still north of
that point. This would really be seri-
GUS obstacle to the handling of steam
boats, whereas the construction of one
bridge few hundred feet farther south
would be no obstruction, while at the
same time the safety and convenience of
the travelling public could be best sub
served.
