WHERE GOLD GROWS.
h Deposits of the P1 ecious Metal
Found in ’Sonle Localities
Every Year.
l‘rcs
There are localities where gold may
be said to grow every year, or, in other
words, Wheie fresh deposits of the pre-
cious metal are to be found annually,
‘ say 5 Answ 1315.
One such district is in the Edmonton
country in the Canadian northwest,
where, after the spring floods, from the
some banks and “benches” of the Sas-
katchewan river, there are taken every
year considerable quantities of gold by
a few diggers, who make their living
out of the business.
But the most conspicuous and inter-
esting case of this sort is to be seen
near Ichang, in the province of I-Iupeh,
411 China. For many centuries past each
year gold has been washed fromthe
banks of coarse gravel on both sides
'of the River‘Han, and in the midst of
the auriferous district there is an an-

TRAVELS 45,000 MILES.
Insufficient Postage on a Package .
the Cause of lts’ Wenrlsomc
Journey.
In order finally to end its trav els, the
post office department has decided to-
deliver, free of charge, a packet of
maps that has already traversed over
45, 000 miles, says the Washington Post.
The package was made up in Perth,
Australia, by employ es of the Austral-
ian geological survey, and directed to
one of the professors of- the University
of Minnesota. It was then stamped
“ofiicial matter,” and wrapped up with
other mail to. be sent to this country.
.Under the existing postal regulations
all transoccanic mail must bear prepaid
postage to the full amount required,
or double that sum must be paid by
the consignee.
So when the maps reached Minneap-
olis the wrapper was almost hidden un-
der due stamps and the professor re-
fused to receive them. They were then
sent to WashingtOn, where they were
redirected and shipped first to San
The ‘ apartment has 1161» deciddd to de-
