Gold Is Discovered Near

Great Deal More
Pay Dirt

Fairbault, Sept 23.-Gold has been
discovered in the Lieb quarries i'm
mediately southeast of the city on
the Straight river, and is Icing
taken out IN small quantities
The pay dirt is becoming better
as it is Delng. washed down and it is
sufficiently ilch TO excite the interest
or the lew men in the city who have
hau experience in gold mining.
A new tiume is being constructed
upon better principles, and IL is be-
heyed tnat gold IN paying quantities
viii | e found.
The back sand in which the gold
is found is typical gold sand, and
with ii is Iound a strong showing OF
amethyst crystals. This combination
is regarded by old miners as GER
tain indication of gold.
Gold was first discovered in the
Lieb quarries two years ago by w. S.
McKelip and Wiliam Hughes, Doth

perienCe and had Eeen pannins

sand Attracted Attention
The sduu IN the Lieb quarry at
tracted their attention and they pan
ned IT out until they found unmis-
taKeable grains OF gold. There was
not enough TO IL 10 make it worth
their while and nothing was done
further
Captain John Lieb, who is associ-
the management of the quarry
which is owned by them, has never
lost interest in the posi- ility OF gold
being found in the quarry.
Two or three weeks ago he found
gold, this time in the sand which is
regarded as certainly indicative OF
gold. The powerful centrifugal cleo
tric driven pump which has been
used TO wash the earth from over the
T, stone which the Lieb quarry uses
was brought into play and disclosed
thick stratum of the black sand. II
is at the top Of the hill but as it has
teen washed down it is shown to be
the bed of a 'prehiStorlcal river, one
= which flowed in the opposite direc-
ton from the. Straight river, which
now flows many feet below.
Panning out the sand naturally
took up considerable of the time OF
Captain Lieb and the results. while
not justifying the labor that had been
expended upon it, showed con-
clusively that gold was present in the
sand lank, and il was decided that
regular mining operations would be
worth while.

sand washed over it. The results

i, graduate mining engineer, and
no in his earlier days had much
iv;li erience in western prospecting
S,as called in consultation.
Il was found that there was de-
feCts in the construction of the
lime which made it impossible to
determine whether gold in paying
tions in an old skillet, conducted by
John Lieb, resulted in the discovery
OF more gold than was shown in the
fume, and il was taken from the
same sand. They are convinced that
a new flume, wider, with different
ripping in the bottom, and laid sc
as to give a slow motion to- the

Too MANY Prefer Dark side.


There is an old saying that 'as q
man thinketh in his heart SO is he" I
believe there is Il great deal Of truth
In the ,adage, remarks a prominent
Philadelphia physician. Also, am
sure there is great deal Of medicine
IN it. When a man begins to grow
gloomy, looks on the dark side Of every
question, sees the shadows and not
the lights; when he begins to go
about with long face and tells his
friends and neighbors what ails him
he is on the road to sickness and per-
hnps death. The fellow who smiles
as he travels along the road Of life
seems to chase away the demons that
are forever looking for an inroad on
health. So cheer up. That is what
I would tell every one of my patients
If they would let me, but most Of them
prefer to look on the sad side Of life.
