To Avoid Big Crowd.
Up to the very last moment it is
probable that the exact hour of the
wedding ceremony will be kept Sc
eret. The desire is to prevent the
gathering of a huge crowd about the
Gait residence. AS soon as the cere-
mony is over and the members Of the
family have congratulated the bride
and groom, the newly married ones
will leave for the South on honey
moon trip which probably will last un-
till the first week in January. The
president and his bride must be back
in Washington before January Z in or
der to act as host and hostess at a
great reception to be given in the
White House TO the Pan-American rep
resentatives in the capital, and, more
over, because congress by that time
will have reconvened after the Christ

back at his desk.

IN DAYS OF GOLD
Immense Output Follows Discoy-
cry of Metal in California.
For Eleven Years, From 1850 to 1861,
the Yield Was Prodigious, Amount
ing in 1852 to Over
$65,ooo,ooo.

Washington.-"The historically i'm
portant discovery of gold in California
was made in January, 184S, at John
Suffers mill on South Fork of Ameri.
can river. near Coloma, a point only
ten or fifteen miles southwest of the
town of Auburn" says statement by
the geological survey.
From 1850 to 1853 the greatest
yield was derived from the grayels,
and the largest annual output for
this period was more than $65 100000
in 1852. There was some reaction in
1854, due to previous wild speculation,
but production of about $50,000,0O0
year, chiehy from placer mines, was
maintained up to 1861.
"At first the gold was won chiefly
from the gravels along the present
streams. Those who first got posses
sion of the rich bars on American,
Yuba, Feather and Stanislaus rivers
and some OF the smaller streams in
the heart of the gold region made at
times from 81 900 to $4,000 day. In
1848 $500 to $500 E. day was not un'
usual luck; but, on the other hand,
the income Of the great majority of
miners was far less than that of men
who seriously devoted themselves to
trade. or even to common labor.
"The gold pan, the rocker the
'tom,' the sluice and the hydraulic
giant, or monitor named In the order
of increasing efficiency, we're the tools
successfully used by the miners. Into
the rocker and the tom the miner
shOveIed graveT or drrt q 9
machine as he poured in water and
catching the gold, often with the aid
of quicksilver, on rifles set across the
bottom of his box. Sometimes stream
was diverted into flume to lay bare
the gravel in it's bed so that the miner
could get at it.
''In sluicing, the gravel was show
eled into similar but much longer
box through which a stream of water
was allowed to run.
"The hydraulic giant was employed
to wash into hong riffie-set sluices inn
mense quantities Of gravel, especially
from the higher (Tertiary) deposits,
much Of which was too lean to work
out by hand. Water was brought for
many miles in bitches and fumes from
the high Sierra and conducted under
great head to a nozzle, from wlrich II
was projected with tremendous force
against the gravel.
1T was the vast quantity Of refuse
washed into the streams by these ny
draulic operations that brought about
the conflict between mining and agri
cultural interests, finally decided in
favor of the farmers"
