CALIFORNIA GOLD DEPOSITS.
Lode and Placer Mining Source OF
Great Wealth.

Few mining regions in California have
attracted so much general attention ana
held it for so long a time as the hla'
math mountains of Siskiyou and TRINITY
counties, in the northwestern part Oh
the state. The placers along TRINITY
and Klamath rivers were developed early
in the gold rush and have been worked
with varying energy to the present time.
The La Grange mine, which is one OF
the largest hydraulic placers in the
world, is now in the height OF IT'S ac-
tivity.
An account of an investigation of the
auriferous gravels in the Weayervllle
quadrangle, which embraces portions OF
Shashta and Trinity counties, by j. ).
Diller, is contained in bulletin 5fO-A,
recently issued by the United States
Geological Survey.
The outlook for future placer mining
in this region is encouraging. The sue
cess of the La Grange mine consists IN
the economical treatment on a large
scale of relatively low grade gravel. The
success of the dredging at Trinity Cen.
ter and of the placers north of Lewis
ton gives confidence to those who are
attempting larger developments at the
mouth of Eastman gulch and at the
bend of Trinity river above Lewiston,
and the region may well be regarded as
worthy of investigation by capitalists
interested in dredging and hydraulic
mining.
The bulletin also contains an account
OF the gold lodes of the Weaverville
quadrangle, by H. G. Ferguson. Gold
was first discovered in the quadrangle
in lS4s; in the fall of that year 100000
worth was taken from the bed of Clear
creek. 1t is impossible TO make any
close estimate of the amount of gold
produced from the lode mines in the
quadrangle, but it is believed that the
total is in excess of Sl5,O00,000.
In certain of the deposits of the re-
gion practically all the gold is contained
in small scattered pockets near the sur
face. One of these pockets yielded as
much as $4,000 in distance of A feet;
from another single plate of gold
weighing 100 ounces is said to have
been obtained The peculiar pocket de-
posits have given rise to a class of pros
pectors known as pocket hunters"
These men often discover many rich
pockets by tracing the particles of gold
in the soil to their sources. As soon as
pocket is gouged out and colors of
gold are no longer shown, the place is
abandoned.

MONTPELIER
Daughter of :Middlesex People Attempt
ed Suicide in Rochester, N. Y.

Mrs. Florence (Granfield) Hunt,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William r.
Granfeld of Middlesex, took bichloride of
mercury tablets in Rochester, N. Y,
Sunday, with suicidal intent, and is in
a critical condition at hospital in that
city. The woman, who is divorced from
her husband, has daughter six years
old. She herself is 81. For some time
she made her home in this city, where
she was waitress at first and later en-
tered Heaton hospital to train for nurs-
ing. Lately she had been nurse in the
Metropolitan hospital, Blackwell's island,
New York harbor, leaving there for
Rochester. Only about three weeks ago
she was in this city. 1t is supposed she
took the poison while in a respondent
mood, as she begged the physicians not
to save her life, as she had nothing to
live for.

GIRLS! HAVE BEAUTIFUL, LUSTROUS,
FLUFFY HARRIS CENT DANDERINE.

as you will you cannot find trace OF
dandruff or falling hair; but your real
surprise will be after about two weeks
use, when you will see new hair-fine
and downy at first--yes--but really new
sprouting out all over your scalp
Danderine is, we believe, the only sure
hair grower; destroyer of dandruf and
cure for itchy scalp, and it never fails
to stop falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty and
soft your hair really is, mosten cloth
with little Danderine and carefully
draw it through your hair-taking one
small strand at time. Your hair will
be soft, glossy and beautiful in just a
few moments--a delightful surprise
awaits everyone who tries this.-Advt.

H0W'S WEATHER? BULLY|
That Cool Breeze Which Is
Giving the City Relief
Is Great!

Washington is a real summer resort
today. The forecasted change in tenn
perature came on schedule time. and
shortly after midnight cool breeze
sprang up from the th-northwest-to
use a nautical term-that drove away
the nights lingering traces of the op-
pressive heat that has pervaded the
capital for the past few days.
BY morning the breeze had freshened.
and when the crowds of government en-
ployes and office people came downtown
between and 0 o'clock the weather bore
a close resemblance to that which pre-
walls along the Maine coast or beside
the great lakes.
The weather man says the cool weather
comes from the great lakes region and
Canada. SO there's reason for the SINH
larity.
Morning temperatures today ranged
low in the seventies. and prospects are
that the GOODNESS will remain for day
or so, most welcome relief from the
torridity that has wrapped Washington
since last Saturday.
The mercury did not climb as high by 9
degrees yesterday as it did Monday, the
maximum temperature being only 81 de-
grees, as compared with 96 MONDAYS
maximum. Today's' forecast calls for
continued cool weather, with more of the
refreshing breeZes that made last night
and the early hours Of the morning such
perfectly bully weather.

HIGH COST OF LIVING DUE
LACK OF COOPERATION
Assistant Secretary Of the Navy
Pleads for Mutual Effort Be-
tween Our Farmers.

In an address before the District OF Co
1umbia branch of the American Society
Of Marine Craftsmen, at the Cosmos
Club. last night, Franklin D. Roosevelt.
assistant secretary of the navy, declared
that one of the reasons the United States
IS so far behind many European coun-
tries in certain phases of modern indus
trial. commercial and agricultural devel-
opment is because the people Of this
country lack the spirit of cooperation.
He added that one potent factor In
the high cost of living is this lack of
cooperation between the farmers of
the United States.
Mr. Roosevelts address was a plea
for cooperation along all lines, but
especially between the farmers. He
declared the human element was one
of the most potent factors in the pres
ent administration

trict affairs by Mrs. Wilson was also
highly commended
The proposition to provide recreation
grounds in the District for adults was in
dorsed upon the recommendation Of Rev.
George NJ. Cummings.
The fact that two small one-story
frame structures had been erected on T
street near 10th street. containing but
three rooms each, was the cause of much
complaint on the part Of the associa-
ton. A proposition was advanced last
evening whereby all of the property own
ers in the community covered by the as
ISOLATION be asked to sign an agreement
whereby they would not erect building
that would not be Of benefit to the COM
munity.
Grading Reported.
The chairman Of the committee on
streets and highways reported that the
work Of grading and improving the alley

nue., T. 18th and 18th streets, was being
done at the present time.
Rev. George NJ. Cummings of the school
committee reported that he had learned
that it was the intention of the authori-
ties to provide an assembly hall in the
Ketcham School building, and that in
order to do so it would be necessary to
raise the roof of the building and con-
struct fireproof stairway. The asso-
citation requested that this be done some
time ago. The stairway Is to be built
on the outside of the building SO that
entrance can be had without the neces-
sity of going through the school proper.
The association adjourned until the
third Tuesday in September. and Presi-
dent Havenner. who conducted the meet
ing last evening, was empowered to call
