GOLD MINE FOUND
IN CITY'S STREET
Ore-Bearing Sand is Discovered BY
Workmen Making Excavations
for New Dnnof.
for New Depot.

Gold, pure and unmistakable, in seeming
good quantity, has been discovered in one
of the bitches in the excavation now being
made al Fifteenth and Main Street for the
erection of the seaboard Air Line depot.
It's presence was first noted yesterday
morning, when about fourteen feet below
the surface, pure, clear water, black sand
and round gravel were found.
These conditions at once suggested gold
to Mr.. C. \. Lyell, superintendent OF the
work, who has spent several years Of his
life among the gold mines OF the Pacific
Coast. He made investigation and discov-
cred that the sand was dilei with shining
gold, and occasionally a flake was found.
Mr. Lyell does not claim TO be an expert.
but says he is quite certain gold has been
discovered.
Others who have visited the spot and ex-
amined the sand are of the same opinion.
The sand will be analyzed. but it is not
probable the presence OF the gold will m
terfere with the erection of the depot.
The ore vein runs towards Main Street.

RECORDS BROKEN
The Thermometer Registered Higher

The hot weather record was broken yes
terday in Richmond. The temperature
was never so high before i'll the history of
the Weather Bureau in this city. The
mercury rose early, AMI spent the5day be-

the hot weather, did not work.
Farmer Evans could make no promise
OF coo.er weather for to-day.
Thousands of thermometers left last

There are many places with the cool

find a comfortable place to spend a day.
