yet it is to the extreme northern situa-
ton which they both possess that is
due the excessive richness of their
placer deposits.
1t is a well established fact that the
richest placer deposits in the world are
to be found in those localities where
the disintegrating effects of the Gle
ments have been most retarded. No
where is this so well exemplified as in
Alaska and northern Siberia. In the
latter, at least, the soil is almost per-
petually frozen, and this fact, together
with the dense forests which subse-
quently covered the deposits, has IA
vored the preservation of the gold
grains and nuggets from the wearing
and denuding action Of the water. In
fact, many of the Geld deposits in this
region have been found TO be due 10

Lieut.. Salmond of the Gwalior cavalry,

northeastern Siberia produces, alone,
fully one-half Of all the gold now mined
in the Russian empire; although its
gold industry is as yet in its infancy
Notwithstanding the severity Of the
climate, the costliness of labor and
food, and the distance from any in
habited place 1000 miles from the
Siberian capital, Irkutsk) still its pro-
duction of gold is developing rapidly;
it already stands first among the gold
producing regions Of Siberia. Some
idea Of the enormty OF its industry
may be CLEANED from the fact that the
wages OF the men employed in its
mines amounted in the last three years
TO S4,ocO,OOO, while the cost Of the chief
articles Of consumption at these mines
was nearly ss,o0o,c00.

the dart above it from six to one hun
dred and twenty feet.
The extraction of the auriferous sand
is conducted in the simplest manner
possible by means of picks, crowbars
and shovel. However, in the OlelIninsk
district the use of explosives in the
mining works is yearly increasing: the
annual consumption of dynamite at the
god workings of this region now
amounts to 20 tons. The auriferous
sand is transported in wheeled carts
drawn by horses to the separating ma
chine. This is nothing more than huge
iron truncated cone resembling coffee
rooster, perforated on all sides. This is
made to rotate by water power and the
large stones and pebbles find their way
to the waste heap where man is con-
stantly watching for nuggets
The workings of the Olekminsk dis
trict are situated at a distance of 23G
miles from their depot of supplies and
in winter they travel back and forth on
the frozen surface of the streams and
in summer on horseback overland.
The gold is transported in a rather
novel manner. 1t is first poured into
bags of coarse linen, which are after
wards stamped with the brand of tile
mine and sewn up in leather sacks
Each bag contains about so pounds OF
gold and two of them constitute load
for one horse.
To the two bags is fastened stick Of
dry wood at the end of strong cord, 50
that in the event of the horses burden
being washed away while crossing n
swollen river, the floating wood win
indicate the whereabouts of the sunken
treasure.
In the middle of June or at the end Of
the summer season the departure OF q
load of gold from the mine is accom-
panied by pistol firing and the booming
of cannon, and cheers and Blessings bid
the caravan bon voyage.

SALT LAKE, Utah, March Ia
special to the Tribune from Plain City
Utah, says:
John Nichols shot and fatally
wounded Joseph Lewis and then
turned the gun on himself with fatal
effect. Lewis had sworn out war
rant charging Nichols with stealing a
watch. and the sheriff was on his way

IL, and rode two miles to where Lewis
was at work, and, after few words,
began to shoot. When Lewis fell,
Nichols went home aud reported that
he had killed Lewis, and said he would
kill himself. In the presence of his
wife and Others, he took out his pis-
tol and shot himself in the forehead,
dying almost instantly.
4 pawn ticket for the watch, which
was claimed to have been stolen, was
found in Nichols pocket.
