TEXAS BEATS KLONDIKE,
Gold, Copper, Graphite and Many other
Valuable Minerals Discovered
THE LLANo COUNTRY is RICH VITA THEM
Freight Men suuI I'm Session. Rer,
ia""s Rates TO Interstate Points,
and Arc Working Like Beavers.

Prof. N. j. Badu OF Llano is in tho
city on an important mission. He Is
trying to interest capital and experienced
miners in the seemingly wealthy and
inexhaus+able mineral lands isround Ilano
and offers to demonstrate that fabulous
mines exist there by exhibiting samples
OF graphite, asbestos gadolinlte and gold
and copper.
Graphite Is used for many things,
among them the making Of lead for writ
ing pencils, stone polish, lubricating ma
terial aud in the arts. The large lump
exhibited by Prof. Badu is pretty
nearly pure graphite. One can whjttle
OFF a few chips from It ana write as
legibly and as easily as one could with
the average high grade soft pencil. This
sample came from, depth of only twen-
ty-five feet below the surface of the
earth. The supply seems to be unlim-
tied.
The samples of asbestos are also OF A
very high order and there is compare
lively an unlimited quantity OF this fire
proof article there and within easy reach
OF those who care to take 1t out OF the
ground. The gadolinite is one of the
rarest minerals in the world and is said
TO sell at the rate of $4,000 per round
when refined. Only two places are known
on the earth where 1t is found, 10 Il is
said. Che Of these Is at Llano and the
other somewhere in North Carolina.
Yttrium is produced from gadolinia and
is used in the arts.
There are thousands of acres of this
mineral around Llano," said Prof Baiu
I'VE have gone down in the earth only
a little more than 700 feet and found
tremendous quantities of those miac.als
Now, at that depth, we have taken oct
as fine specimens of gold and copper as
the world has ever seen. THIS shows
what We have. IT Will be readily re-
membcled by mining mon that they didn't
meet with any success At Cripple creek
Until they had reached depth OF 500
feet"
MIR. S. +. 3. Morse, passenger traffic
manager Of the Southern Pacific lines,
was much interested in the samples of
minerals shown. 1T will vet be DEM
onstrated that l have proven true
prophet he chuekled, when said
years ago that Texas had more wealth
underground on top OF ground in tho
air and -oyerywhere-thln ANY
other State in the Union.
Prof. Badu will remain in Houston sew
eral days. Llano is the terminus OF tins
Austin and Northwestern road and il
about 265 miles from Houston.
