Desert Gold And Its Discovery
Mining Engineer, with forty years in mining including fifteen in Coolgardie, argues that new Australian goldfields are discovered by pick and shovel, not geologists. He notes many famous mines began as speculation, expects payable gold in Central Australia, and dismisses water contamination fears from dynamite. He envisions aeroplane services to ease early-day challenges and asserts water can be solved.

Launch Burnt in Wallis Lake Fire Destroys Carbine
William Coombe of Forster lost his launch Carbine in a Friday night fire on Wallis Lake. Coombe and a crewman were in a small boat hauling when they sighted flames three hours later over a mile away and could not save the vessel. The craft was insured for £150, but the loss exceeds that amount.
