1T is fortunate for the officers and the

against them, and In the next place they
were probably interfering with the Fed

The paper leaves the 81 yer State ONCE

yer, The largest gold gain was by
California which yielded about S. 900,
600 more than the previous year and a
larger amount than any year since the
sixties. This GAIN the. director
says Came chiefly from 5dredge op-
erations and further gain is expected
during the current year and for some
years to come. The California state
mining bureau estimates the possible

year for thirty years Colorado shows
AN increase Of nearly $4,000, 900 gold

LAWSON's. PROPERTY TO. :.

Boston,, Mass, Sept. 1r.-Many in
terested spectators will attend the pub
lie auction in front of the courthouse
this afternoon when Thomas w. Law
sons Back Bay property. including the
homestead, Stables, etc, will be sold
for taxes. Ii seems that the property
was transferred by Mr.. Lawson to his
wife, Mrs. JEANNE, D. Lawson, two
years ago. Mr.. Lawson at that time
overlooked the fact that the taxes for
1902 and 1908 had not been paid. Tax
Collector Mcdonald, failing TO collect
the taxes and accrued interest, amount
ing to $5,s4o,s advertised it for sale and
set the AUCTION for this afternoon.
q When Mr., Lawson Of 'Frenzied Fl
nance fame heard of 4he encouragement
of the sale, he was at first inclined to
send his agent to the collector and let
him pay the taxes, but on second
thought he decided not to spoil the fun
of the auction In regard to the matter
Mr.. Lawson said to- "a friend: II do
hope the city; viii get sufficient to pay
that fifty-five hundred Otherwise we
would have to throw In a dog or two.
IL is expected that Mr.. Lawson or his
agent will bid ID the properly at the
