LithO.raphic Stone.

The discovery of photographic
stone deposit on Squaw Peak IN
Arisona, has caused extended com
ment. In 1856 Colonel Boyle cut
into a body of photographic stone on
the 1000 level of the Alta mine. No
extended mention Of the discovery
was made at the time as the Colonel
said that he was looking for gold and
silver bearing ore, and courted no
credit for develoing body of litho-
graphic stone. Tests made at the
time proved the quality to be equal
to the best products of that char
acter, Enterprise.

TRAIN ROBBERY.
Wells Fargo Express Car Robbed
0fV. Il T. Pay Box.

When the passeng train was
about a nile out of town last night,
the front door Of the express car was
smashed in and a man with a shot
Gun demanded the tin box contain
ing he money with which to pay the
wage Of the section men along the
road between here and Reno. Mes
seDger Page had no choice but to
hand over the box. The robber
then signalled the engineer to stop
the train, with the bell cord, and
jnmplng from the train started for
town.
The train was backed down to the
Depot, and Mr.. Mills informed
Sheriff Kinney of the robbery.
A posse started out to track the
man, but it is likely that he got into
a broken road, where it would be
impossible to track him, with the
snow falling rapidly.
Mr.. Mills did not know the exact
amount of money in the box but
when asked If there were several
thousand dollars, said there was con-
siderably less.
The man is described as average
height and weight and wearing tan
colored coat, with SLOUGH hat. He
wore a mask in the car. He was
tracked near the shooting range. 1t
is likely that he is hiding in town.
