Gold is to he found in most things.
aS we know now-cven in sea water
but some experiments recently made
in Sydney under the auspices OF the
local Royal Society yielded curious
results in this connection. Dust COL
lccted from the roof OF the Sydney
Observatory was found TO contain CO.
bait. nickel and gold, while at the uni
Vcrsity Duildings-a couple OF miles
further away from the sea-gold was
also discovered in the dust. The OH
Scrvatory is within Il stones throw or
sydney harbor with the wharvcs all
around it, and probably the nickel ard
cobalt are TO be traced TO the shin

the gold is everywhere. ana it was

Possibly, through the agency OF Some

may be made to pay for tha working.
