Coarse Specimens Found IN Gravel
Uncovered by the Rain.
SAN ANDREAS, CAL, Jan. 18.-Showers
have been falling all day, and at 4 o'clock
this afternoon there were thunder and
lightning. Soon the water fell in sheets,
this downpour lasting about twenty min
utes. The streets were flooded, bitches
became swollen streams and the creek run
ming through town gained the promi-
nence of river and overlooked it's banks
As far as can be learned no damage was
done.
The rain is great boon to miners and
farmers, and both industries will be greatly
benefited. The main street of the town is
sloping, and when the rain came it washed
off the mud, leaving the grayel-bed bare.
This gravel used to yield much gold in
early days. People now searching find
numerous coarse specimens. One hunter
found nugget worth nearly 81.
