there runs this trace Of gold which crops
up along the mountains and on certain
rivers until IL shows itself I'm an almost
perfect gold formation.
Visitors who dig there have frequently

and it was brought in its crude state 10
England and America. But, with the adj
dition OF little machinery from the
United States. the gold can be separated
and largo amounts OF the precious ore
can be shipped directly 20 this country.
In a report recently issued by the gov

nearly as is now known were set forth,
and the figures were greater than those
OF any other GOLD bearing country in the

To stop this Lieutenant Bland, of tina

This morning Lieutenant Foster obtained
fifty men from the provost guard and
stormed the armory. Lieutenant Bland
and his small detail gracefully surren-
dered to superior numbers and released
the two men. Lieutenant Foster, In tri-
umph. took his two men and started for
the train, being In high good humor.
Lieutenant Bland, however. rushed up
10 the Windsor Hotel. and saw General
Lee TO whom he explained the situa-
ton. A fast horse carried one OF Lees
aides TO the station just in time to stop
the train. The aide had just time 20 servs
