Testing Gold. Victor Shaw in Adventure Magazine To test gold, dig the point of ti knife Into it. and if it powders it la not gold. Gold is richly yellow, but to tell it from pyrites when in very minute flecks, turn It so that the light catches It from various direc tions. Gold will not alter in shade, but pyrite does. A drop of nitric acid will cause a fuming on pyrites, but does not affect gold. You must pan creek sands and gravels to find gold. It may be near surface, but generally the heaviest deposits of placer gold are on and close to bed rock, which may be a few feet or many feet deep. Gold placers are best found In a big bend In a creek which allows it to be de posited, or on the upper side of a reef or ledge crossing the stream. Sometimes it is a dry deposit, up where the stream formerly flowed, and Is called a “'bench” placer. Gold is worth a little more than $20 per troy ounce and is paid for ut mints or smelters at the rat# of about that price after refining. u mm .— ■■■■■■ —■■■ 1 ' ' ■ First Radio Pictures of Lost Plane and Skipper These pictures of the PN-9 No. 1, and Commander Rodgers, heroic skipper of the t craft, lost nine days in the Pacific, were radioed in twenty minutes from Honolulu to New York.
