Mr.. and Mrs. N. ]. Dillon desire The
Optic to supply al unintentional omission
in yesterdays card, and extend heartfelt
thanks to Superintendent Hurley and the
railroad employees, who so cheerfully and
readily contributed in such a marked de-
gree to the finding Of their lost little son.
The manner in which the people Of Las
Vegas, of all classes and callings, met the
stricken parents cry for help to find their
boy ,proves that the men OF Lasvegas have
hearts as soft as women's, and, when me-
cessity requires It, the courage to do and
dare the deeds of which heroes lives are
made.

Mr.. Edwards Explains

F. A. Edwards, whose name was hastily
mentioned in a%letter from Hopewell in last
evenings issue, called on The Optic, this
afternoon. 4
In conversation with the gentleman, the
fact stuck out that he was not going II
blind On his recent trip to that camp. He
describes the porphyry belt as extending
eight or ten miles, with granite and
quartzite contacts. The porphyry is inter-
laced with quartz seams, but although
free gold freely appears, Mr.. Edwards is
not of the opinion that Hopewell will
prove to be a Door mans camp with de-
velopment. From the description be gives,
Hopewell resembles the Ortiz mining dis.
trict in formation more closely than any
other mineral section that the writer a
now bring to mind. S9 \
In Mr.. Edwards estimation, it is a waste
of time and energy on the part of pros
pectors who go to Hopewell unprepared
for considerable development work, and
who may delude themselves into the hope
of finding there a paradise for poor pros
pectors. ss~
