Gold Galore.

The rich Rand gold mines in South
Africa have kept up monthly average
for 1905 which promises an output Of
800, 100000 for the year. The increase
in the Rand, the United States and
other gold producing districts renders
it reasonably certain that the $780,
100000 mark will be reached before
the close of the year 1905. At that date
the accumulation of gold in the entire
world will amount to $G,OO0,O0OO
three times the amount available when
gold was discovered in California in
1S4S.
Vast as has been the development Of
gold mining in the last fifty years,
there are enormous deposits still prac-
ticaIly unworked. Recently important
veins were uncovered In Madagascar
and caused rush Of prospectOrs from
the Transvaal and the Cape to that re-
gion. Some of the richest gold deposits
On the globe are to be found in Central
America and the northwesterly repub-
lies Of South America. Honduras is
yellow metal, besides having a soil Of
great fertility. Century after century
the gold has lain hidden in its noun
tains and rock crevices. This fact has
been we'll known, yet few attempts
have been made to open the mines. The
reason is to be found in the natural
conditions. In the mountains of Hon.
duras, where the richest gold quartz
deposits are, the climate is eminently
healthful. The coast is, however, low
and sickly. No sickness would deter
the gold seeker, but Honduras is Il
country without roads, and the same is
true of other Central American repub-
lies. Journeys to the gold fields are
made on horse or mule back. Another
obstacle in the way of gold mining in
these regions is the difficulty of getting
the ore out of the mountains. The lack
Of roads renders this almost impossi-
ble The gold is found in quartz lodges.
Rich gold mines in Peru, Brazil and
Siberia have long since been aban-
doned, but a new invention, called the
gold ship which is simply land
dredge, that is doing wonders in clean
ing up abandoned placers, will eventu-
ally be set to work in these districts to
extract the gold left by the old process
Of mining
Scientists have recently brought out
some remarkable statistics about gold.
For instance, NJ. de Wilde Of Brussels
says that all the gold which has been
mined by man would not form a cube
more than thirty feet square. This
would weigh 3S,5SO,OOO pounds and
have a value at present of $13 ,559 ,946,
900. According to the speculations Of
two Frenchmen, the ocean contains
gold floating in the water as well as
lying in the drift at the bottom, and If
one one-hundredth of it could be ex-
tracted the output would exceed by
twenty-five times all the yellow stuff
that has yet been mined on land.

HEAVY FOG DUE
THIS MORNING
SLIGHTLY COOLER" SAYS
FORECASTER
FINE WEATHER FOR BEANS
Head OF Local Bureau Refers All Who
Thinks Mercury Too Am-
bilious to Ari-
FINE WEATHER FOR BEANS

The local weather forecaster fails to
enthuse over the warmth Of the last
two or three days and refers the pes
simist to Arizona and New Mexico for
any nearer approach to Hades than
Los Angeles the past week.
Arizona, where the mercury strained
a point and reached 120 degrees on the
Fourth, gained the distinction of be-
ing the hottest place on the western
hemisphere for that day. Los Ange-
les was thirty-six degrees cooler.
Today is expected to be slightly
cooler than yesterday, say about 80
degrees for the maximum, and there
is nothing in sight to indicate that the
next few days will cause the suns rays
to beam with any additional warmth.
In the meantime, beans are thriving
and this Is Forecaster Franklin's fav-
orite dish, and therein lies the hopes
of the outdoor multitude for protec-
ton against "northers" in the heat
line.
The fogs of the last few days have
been of unusual density and tarry a
greater length of time than is the GUS
tom, and 1t is predicted that the late
riser today will find traces Of the bean
elixir still in evidence If the rising
hour is not prolonged beyond 10 o'clock.

HUSBAND HEAD
W|FE'S TARGET
He SAYS POOR AIM OFTEN
SAVED HIS LIFE
MAN SECURES HIS DIVORCE
Wife Who, According to Testimony,
Deserted George w. Harris, Had
Convincing Ways-Life With
Her Too Strenuous

Unable to hold down the domestic
lid and convinced that he could never
effect a reconciliation with his wife,
George w. Harris yesterday applied
for divorce in Judge Gibbs court
and was granted an interlocutory de-
cree on the grounds of desertion.
According to his allegations, they
were married in 1886 and his wife
made things most unpleasant for him
until her departure in 1898, of which
the following incidents were cited at
the trial yesterday as examples
On one occasion, Harris alleged, he
was talking with his wife in the back
yard at the family homestead when
she suddenly attempted to clinch her
argument by trying to hit him over
the head with the business end of the
family ak. He escaped.
On another occasion when he en-
tered into conversation with his COM
panion, he says the climax of their i'm
terview was precipitated by Mrs
Harris seizing the lid from the wash
boiler and hurting it at his head.

EXPERT IN FREIGHT AFFAIRS
Assistant General Freight Agent Of
Clark Road Confirms Rumor That
He VIII Sever Connection
With Company

H. B. worden, for the past two years
assistant general freight agent of the
San Pedro, Los Angeles & Salt Lake
road, yesterday confirmed the report
that he has placed his resignation with
General Freight and Passenger Agent
Gillett and has accepted more re-
sponsible position with the S. u. Blade
Lumber company of San Francisco.
Mr. Gillett is now In New York city
with Senator w. A. Clark and was
notified of Mr. worden's deterinina-
tion week ago last Tuesday. 1t is
probable that for the next few months
the position will be left untitled.
With Mr.. Worden's departure from
the field of railroading, the service
loses one of the best informed men in
the country of freight traffic condi-
tions in the western states. He has as
accurate knowledge of the west as
any man in it.
Still a young man, in his eleven
years Of railroad, as travelling freight
agent, he has covered every mile of
territory from the Canadian border to
the City of Mexico and from the Kan
sas state line to the Pacific.
He began his work with the New
York Central, following that with a
position of larger duties with the
Frisco system, now part Of the Rock
Island
His next promotion was when he ac-
cepted the duties of his present office
two years ago.
Only men connected with the freight
traffic business are able to appreciate
the work which has been done by the
trio of men, Messrs. Gillett, Worden
and Peck, in the opening up for busi-
ness Of the new Clark road. fHli e
With an appreciation of his worth
by his superiors there has been feel
ing of respect and friendliness on the
part of his subordinates, who have
come to know him as a man of few
words but full of action and insistent
uTon it from them.
General Freight and Passenger Agent
Gillett will return to Los Angeles some
time next week and Mr.. Worden, as
soon as it is possible for him to give
UP his wosition, will go at once to San
aFrancisco to take up his new work
there, which is to carry with it much
more responsibility and emolument
than does his present Office.
