ine that Can’t be Worked.
Philadelphia Timed,
' The greupd on which Philadel-
Z phU stands is one of the.richest gold
fields in the world. That is a fact. The
only difficulty ie that the field cannot
be worked. Nearly the whole city
' ie underlaid with clay, to the depth
of about ten feet—an area say ten
miles square. A cubic foot of clay,
’ weighing 130 .pounds, taken from a
depth of fourteen feet when the cel
lar of the Twelfth street market
bouse was excavated, was practically
demonstrated to contain seven-tenths,
of a grain of gold, or one pound in
1,224,000. The experiment was-re
peated with about the same results
with clay taken from a brick yard in
the suburbs. Supposing the whole
mass of day is 4,180,000,000 pounds
(and it is really much greater), the
anqount of gold would reach in value
the enormous sum of 1126,000,000.
The gravel ie. much richer in: gold
than the' clay, but there is not so
much of it; Undoubtedly $200,000,-
000 of gold lies within fifteen feet of
the surface and still it cannot be
Used.

The pupils in the city
Dea Moines, Iowa, express their af
fection for their teachers by bring
ing them presents of fruit. As the
amount of fruit brought indicates
the intensity of the affection, some
of the teachers are talking, of quit

going into the wholesale fruit busi
ness.
There is no present danger of illit

books that the police in the cities
have been instructed to take the

will permit, so that their parents may
be brought into court and fined for
permitting them to be overloaded.
It may be interesting totalk-about
extending tbe term of the President
from four to six years, but it will be
many a day before the country agrees
to such an extension.
