Workers Ordered off.

On Thursday last at Pine Nut
Fred Sargent's men we're ordered off
the Bank Of California claim by dep
uty marshals from Genoa.
He put a gang Of men at work on
Tuesday, Dec. 31st and they were or
dered off. He resumed work on New
Years day, but on the day following
a posse came to them and made them
leave the ground.
Sargent is congratulating himself
on his good luck. He was acting as
the agent of Oliver Roberts, the origi-
nal locator, a fact that the men who
ordered him off were not acquainted
with. Having been prevented from
doing the assessment work by force
the original locator has a sure case
and is thereby saved from doing his
assessment work this year or last.

QUEER FORMATIONS.
Geological Laws Defied at Pine
Nut,

Biologists who visit Pine Nut are
guage of one Of the devisers Of the
camp:
THY don't know their alive"
All laws of geology seem to be set
utterly at defiance. Gold is found in
all sorts Of queer company. Ever
since the world began gold is sup
posed to have held his head high and
only associated with certain forms OF
rock formations, but in Pine Nut gold
has a democratic way Of running
with all sorts Of company. Itisfound
in close proximity to marble and
granite and is not too high toned to
mix with turqoise and lime. But to
cap the climax of its queer tendencies
it is found locked in the embrace Of
something that has never been con
sidered any more than a mongrel
mineral and that same is asbestos.
This fact has been clearly demon
strated. and not a day passes that the

the most questionable mineral com
pany where it was never seen before.
The good old Bible, if one rec llects
Alright says that gold is where you
find it, and this seems to be the sum-
ming up of the Pine Nut situation.
The biologists fight shy of Pine Nut
as it overthrows a good many, old,
established theories.
From all accounts it would seem
that the original positions of the min
erals was disturbed by a mighty up
heaval, perhaps Of a volcanic nature,
or volcanic and earthquake combined,
which broke up the foundations Of the
mountains and cast the precious met
ais to the surface mingled with every
thing that came up, an heterogeneous
! crowd of rocks and metals and that
new veins formed in the mass and
new formations arranged themselves
to puzzle future generations.
