LECTURE ON GOLD.
Prof. AppletOn's Lecture In the Chemical
Laboratory at Brown.

Professor y. II. Appleton gave an IL
lustrated lecture on gold and gold min
ing at the chemical laboratory at Brown
last evening.
He said there were three main deposits
OF gold, one in soft earthly material and
alluvial deposits, one In hard materials,
as granite, and gold exists in loose
gravel.
Gold In soft deposits can be obtained
without money, but capital and ma
ohinery are necessary to get 1t out OF
granite. Ono of the simplest ways of get
ting gold is by washing out tho sand.
Employing mercury is more difficult
way. The hydraulic method is also used.
Last year Colorado produced more gold
than any other stete The United States
produced more gold than my other great
district. South Africa came next, Aus
trnla third and Russia bad fourth.
Colorado has been gold and silver pro-
ducing country for over forty years.
