correspond with those Of Alaska. II was
there that Balboa found his first gold.

day more than s1O0,0O0,oOo worth OF gold
has been taken out of Colombia, and
there are mines In half dozen different
states which are now paying we'll Tho
great gold-bearlng regions are in the
mountains of the Choco and Antioquia
provinces, and in the ranges between
the Cauca and Magdalena rivers. This
area covers thousands of square miles
and gold is said TO be found wherever
there is gravel. Back in the mountains,
where the rock has been laid bare, there
are gold veins everywhere that require
only modern machinery and methods for
the extraction of the metal. Much OF
this territory has never been explored
except by the Indians There Is also
gold in the department OF Narlno, bor-

Gold In Sacred Lake.
One Of the odd gold finds Of Colombia
Is connected with the sacred lake II

This lake has a deposit of mud about
thirty feet deep at the bottom that is
believed TO contain quantities OF gold

were placed there by the Indians before

According to the tradition the Indians
came to the shores OF the lake and
