not shown single blank claim, and claims
range in price from 1000 to $40, 900.

found in the northern country. 1t is very
coarse, and brings SO TO the ounce. On

000 to 81, 800 per day. working five hands.
This gold is SO coarse that most of it is
dirt, and i'll a day. run they seldom have
more than 800 or 500 that cannot be
picked up on table fork such as we eat
with. The ground where the gold is
found is on a bench some 50 feet above
the level OF the creek. The gold is found
at the depth OF three to four feet. The
sluice boxes are set at the water edge
and they vince the dirt in barrels to the
edge Of the bench and slide it down
tiume into the Sluice boxes, then wash
out and get the fine gold.

is saleable at good figures. We intend to
