SAN' FRANCISCO. Jan. 26. ( Special. ) Among tlio pioneers who are celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of the discovery At gold In this stnto thcro are none more Interesting than John 11. Iloume , who lives In Pasadena , and Is now 81 years old. He has lived In California moro than sixty years nnd has n remarkably cluar memory or the events of long ago. "The strangest fact In connection with the discovery of gold by Jnmcs ( Mar shall on January 24 , 1848 , " said Mr. Uourne , Ms that the discovery was not thought of much consennencu by any of the 200 or 300 ranchmen and lumber workers In the locality of the Mud until a. week afterward. Frank A. Folsom , who was living In the ramo ahatity with Marshall at the time of the llnd , told mo moro than fifty years ago that Marshall was so bent on building the mill nice and Betting the llttlo saw mill In operation that tbo gold suemo.l unimportant by the side of timber operations. In the summer of 1843 , while I was mining at Coloma , I talked with dozens of people who were at work at the spot whcro Marshall found the llrst gold nuBsnts , and they all have said that It was fully ten days before Marshall though * enough iiboitt thu discovery to go some thlr- ty-llvo inlli-s across the country to Sutler's Fort ( where the city or Sacramento lias since grown ) and show his nnd to his friend and partner , Captain Sinter. The news did not get down to San Francisco , about ISO milts away , until three months later. Captain SIK- ter said when the gold was shown him , 'Yes , that's gold , and It will be the curse of us ' meaning that It was the end to their schemes for a big saw mill and Hour mill alceig the American river. FIRST NEWS DISCREDITED. "Ah , well do I remembor' ' the day the news of the gold IIml camp to the little vil lage on the sand dunes about San Francisco bay. One altcrncoii May 4 , 1 believe It was w'.ien I came rowing In from fishing , I saw a gathering of men absut i Mexican saloon on the thoroughfare that sprawled over the sand hills. When I .squeezed myself Into the saloon. I saw a small bottle of yellow Hakes or scales the size of muskmelcii uccda banded ibout from one person to another for In spection. A dozen men were scrutinizing tiny heaps of the yellow stuff on the bar. " 'You bet that's gold ; ' 'Yes , sure as preaching , that's the " ' ' article ; "N'o. It'o a co.jper formation , ' I heard as I came Into tbo crowd. "That wiis the first California gold that came to San Francisco. Uut it was n week or ten days before the belief that those yellow ! flakes were genuine gold had become so well founded tlut any one started for the diggings. The San Francisco Star pitied people who could believe there was gold ! enough In all California to buy even a ie-i I spectable meal. A week later on May 12 , I i i believe a Scotch ranchman came riding into ' Saai Francisco directly from the diggings. Ho was an Intelligent and reputable man. Ho brought wlt'.i him about two pounds of gold dust and nuggets to'trade for merchan dise at the mines. "Talk about excitement ! It 'began ' In the town of San Francisco ithal same hour. All that night the saloons were thronged wltn men who talked of nothing but the chances there might bo for them In mining. One great lank fellow , n Mermen , was so wild i with excitement at the thought of digging gold that ho went up and down the Lay shore- yelling , 'Gold , gold , gold , ' like a mi.l- man. Several saloon men who could not null tholr sUx-k looked up their places , deter mined to let them go to the dogs while they were \\arfhlng geld. "Still there iworo ccoffers at the very Idea thai , gold could be found in California. The editor of the Star deplored the lying reports sent out 'by ' adventurers to lure the unwary to the interior of California. Captain. Swan , U. S. A. , stationed at the 1'resldlo , said he had a good knowledge of metallurgy , and ho bogged many men , who > were leaving homes nii.l good lIvliiEH for mining , to pause In their mad rush and consider that tlio yellow nuggets and Hakes were .but a peculiar for-n of mica. Ilev. Mr. Davidson declared that ho knew the gold stories were design rj fictions to draw population Into the Interior of California. All the members of old aris tocratic Mexican families such as the Vol- lejou , Sepulvedas and Vljars were sure that the strange yellow metal WHS some now con glomerate got up by Ingenious Yankee. ? to wean the Callfornlans from their od ! Mexican Hag to the new American ( lag. WHEN THE RUSH HEGAN. "When , however , the rush for the dig gings along the North Fork of the Ameri can river did begin , on May 13 , 184S. it was mighty earnest. Over 200 men started on that day and as many moro on the following day. I went three days later nnd was In the very first party to go up the river to Stockton , and then across the country to C'olnnm. Wo were the flrst San Franciscans nt the mines. Wo chartered a llttlo steam boat and started out with a supply of provi sions that lasted us but two weeks. None cf us know a thing about gold mining. In deed , there were but two persons In San Francisco that had ever aeon gold mines. "fly tlio flrst of June the news of the dis covery had gene as far down the coast as Monterey. The gold diggers at Coloma were by this time sending out so much gold to buy provisions , tools nnd ulothiiv ; that convincing evidence of the rlehncs. of the sandbars and creek hanks fo.lowed rlosely upon the heels of 'ho nows. Liter ally every one In central California \\\o ' \ could get away went chasing l over ( > o coun try toward the American Fork. Leas than ono-twelfth UIP male populirion of 011 Francisco remained when Jn/io / had come. Whole families packed up and went to Coloma without stopping to Bleep. On two long streets of homes and stores none but women and children remained. Half the stores and every public Inn was closed , be cause both boarders and host had gene to the American Fork. The village of Santa Cruz packed up and started for the mines In twenty-four hours. The news of the gold find and samplra of the gold reached .Mon terey late In 'May ' , and In two < lays every male In the village tout flvo had started fo'r the American Fork. The village of San Miguel , containing some 000 souls , was abso lutely deserted by every human being dur ing the flrst week In June , and I don't be- llovo there were ovoa three men In n hun dred who remained at homo In California In the spring and summer of 1818. I re member hearing a fallow miner tell how ho had found the jail at 'Monterey ' empty , the prisoners , sheriff , and all iho peace otll- cers gene to the mines , and of seeing General - oral Mason of the United States army and a commodore of the United states navy .rooking tholr own food In a dedcrtoij hotel at Monterey , because all thnlr o-ervants and men had deserted In the night and had fol lowed the rush toward the American Fork. "by July there mu t have bem about 5.000 miners ot work with ehovoV > ind pans along the Amcrlcaci Fork , and there were arrivals from moro remote localities IP California every day. Hetween 7.000 and 8.000 Call fornlans In that flrst season of gold minims , from May to January , got out fully $10.000 - 000 worth of gold. "Tho custoir.a end scenes In tire mln'.ig regions durlrg the. spring and1 cummer o. ' 1S4S a year bc-foro teas of thousands or Im migrants came swarming ae-rosn the plain * . over the Isth 111113 and around the lloin were far itlffoient from these the oatitcrnciij found. There was llttlo or no gambling. Thu miners left their pourils cf go'd under their bo11 and went unconcernedly mllei from camp There wereno mining Mwi to to corsldcrel. It wa a perfect minims eljalum , As I look bkc' : at those days now It seems wo were like big children gilng obcut la a vaut natural treaauro house , won dering uow much rloUes we might carry away when we were roVvdy. but in KIM while frittering awny our time and opportunities. Most of us were BO amused at the wealth woitiw lying about tu. tUat I think we were Irsinc. When I remcmlyer the whole acres of gravel anj sand , richer ihnn anythl's ever found cti the K'ondlke , that wo abandoned because we heard of n1 better ehlorado on Another remote creek , or.river. It seems a * If that era must havp .Ucrri a dream. The rrctltaanrefl nnd greed to'get the very cream c-J the diggings kept the greater part ot Ir. . of the 'fabulous us pcor aplte opportuni ties. Several of ua young tuon cranged min ing localities seven tlmea in aa many months and wo foirjj no rlchsr dirt than at flrst. Many a time I have known , camra of a dozen or score cf mlnera ho were ( .aiming and r&t-klttg cut alx or e'ght ' ounces of gold a man every day to abandon , such a claim snJ gj cht-jing forty and sixty miles up roue try with their camp oulflu to the Yuba or Feather rlvnr , where they had heard the mv.icrs were getting a few more ounces from a day's work. EVENTS THK SECOND YEAH. ' When > 1S-I3 came , anil the number of miners swelled to CO,000 In n few months , the bonanza tUys for Individual washing cold weio gone. The Callfornlans flrst on the accno Who kin en- enough to stay by a gcol elalm and not bo tempted by stories of rlchsr diggings elsewheren.aJo fortunes In n year or two and quit Independently rich for life. Abnun W. Day , afterward a con gressman from 'Missouri , stayed by the flrst claim ho took up on the American river In July , 1S48 , and by 1SG1 ho had washed all the gold out of the sand and gravel there. He then iiult at the ago of 27 years with $130,000. He was a cook on a man-of-war In San Francisco bay when the news cimo there of the gold discovery , and he joined the stampede of men to Coloma. "Among the men digging and panning gold along the American river then the only ono who was sour and mad was 'James W. Marshall himself the discoverer of gold. Ho went about from camp to camp fuming nnd warning the men that ho would soon dispossess them of their gold by legal pro cess. Ho claimed the * legal right to all the gold In that locality , and ho swore that he would never mine an ounce till the Unite 1 States laws drove out the tresprasers and restored the property to Suitor nnd him. N'o nno but the. Mormons paid any attention to Marshall. The Mormons recognized Mar shall's right. " , and they uso.l to deal out to him and Sutler part of their nuggets and dust at stated periods. "Wi > San Franciscans reached the dlgginpj at daybreak on May 20. ISIS. Tired aiu hungry ns wo were , we went directly to eee the gold mining. A dozen men were already up , and , standing 'barelegged ' in the shallow water of the American river , were panning gold from gravel and sand. Wo stood spell bound and watched. It was the most re markable moment in all my long life. We | down and looked over the results of the pin- nlngs. In n fe'.v hours wo had learned how to mine gold In that crude way. We ate breakfast there and started to go. " 'Can you tell us where we can go and wash out gold , too ? ' wo asked. " 'Oh , take your shovels nnd pans and ex- | porlment anywhere up or down the fork , whuro no ono is ahead of you. A blind man can get gold here. The. sandbars and gravel are Just lousy with gold. The only trick is to find the richest' , was the reply. "We went about a half a mile down the river , passing dozens cf miners all at work In the shallow streams with shovels and pan.3. . Wo came to 'a narrow sandbar that reached obliquely across the river. Wo started our flrst mining , there. Wo spent half n day In trial pannlngs for gold , and we got some color In every pan. We dug down flvo feet Into the coarse grdvel. There we got gold that tan almost a fourth of an ounce to the pan. At that nte an Indus trious man could easily pan ton ounces of the yellow metal tlicre' In a day. Several persons In our party fhoUght they could find richer diggings further down. They went a quarter of u mile , and , sure enough , they did find richer gravel. Wo were about to abandon our claim on tlio flrst sandbar , but the crowds of belated and excited gold seek ers from 5'an ' Francisco and that region' be gin to reach the dlgglnp.i at that time , anJ wo decided to stay wherp wo were. 1'L.ACKHSI WEKB HIGH. "Tho very richest dirt I personally over knew about was that mind on Hauson'u bar In the Stanislaus river In September - ber , 184S. A party of flvo Swedes took out with rockers there thirty pounds of geld , avoirdupois , in six days. The geld was worth about $15.50 on ounce then , and the whole mnsi sold for about $7.GOD. That yielded each Swede about ? 255 a day. The late Daniel Jackson and his partner struck a marvelous streak of rich gravel about fif teen feet below the surface , while working on Frenchman's IJend In the Tuolumno In the summer of 1S4S. They got , four pounds of gold In two days , and , altogether In the couisc of several months of hard work there , got gold worth $40.000. The Monnciw. who woo : about the very flrst men In the new diggings , located on the north fork of the American river. I have wen them wash out gpavel at the rate of $3..r > 0 a pan for hour ; pt a time. The Mormons were secretive fol lows , but I had It on gco 1 authority that they cleared up over $150.000 In several months In 184S. John Di'lwoll , the prohibi tion candidate for president In 1892 , and a party of sc-veral Indians got out $10,000 worth of gold In one week on. the Feather river In the summer of 184S. The best I ever did In any ono day was In ths name summer. A partner and I were operating a rocker on the Tuolumno and were working In a streak of gravel about two feet thick , just above the bedrock and twelve root below surface.
