SAN FRANCISCO, September 25.— A rich strike of gold was made yes- terday on the property of the Cen- tral Eureka Mining Company, ac- cording to a report received by the San Francisco Chronicle. The mine, controlled by a small group of San Francisco men, Is located at Sutter Creek, Amador County, east and slightly south of Sacramento, Calif.

The old Eureka mine was owned vears ago by Hetty Green, who, how- ever, did not work the mine, in the belief that it was barren.
