NEW YORK, May 26-The search for old gold in the form of o,it-of- date jewelry and odds and ends of all kinds throughout the country is bringing to light vast quantities of the precious metal.
 The treasury has bought through the hints and assay offices in the first three and half months of 1884 a total of $43,297,712 worth of scrap gold, which is equal to the output of the gold mines of the entire country last year It is esti- mated that gold to the value of $4,000,000 is being bought every week, or more than twice as much as is mined. It is estimated that upward of a billion dollars worth of old gold still lies idle for forgot ten in American homes. The pub lie is cautioned to sell it's old gold to jewellers of standing in the com- munity to assure getting fair price. The government has issued 6,000 dealer licenses in the New York district alone to buy gold.

KIDNkPERS GET WRONG VICTIM
 AND KILL HIM
Six Men Are Held for Cues tioning in Texas Abduc-

MEXIA, Tex, May 26.-Six men are held for questioning in the death of John Adams, aged 50, wealthy dairyman believed by of ficers to have been slain by kid naperS who had mistaken him for a wealthy neighbor.
 Adams was thrown from a water tank mile from home and his mangled body was found early this morning.
 The belief that Adams was slain by his kidnapers is based on a note received by Dwain Adams, son of the slain man. The note said
 Your old man is safe. Excuse us. We got the wrong man.
 The authorities believe Adams was slain to erase identity of his captors.
