Drotest With several thousand children
waiting for adequate school accommoda-
tions. with everybody agreeing that we
ought TO have not only popular educa-
ton. but compulsory education as a sure
foundation for the future safety and sue
cess of the community, we find reputa-
BILE citizens in large numbers making the
selection of the most eligible sites difficult
by their protests.
1T is, therefore, delightful to know
that Takoma Park likes its schoolhouse,
as well it may, not only for the general
reasons which apply everywhere through
out this Republic of education, but be-
cause of the attractiveness of this par
ticular building. OF all the 120 school
houses Of the District of Columbia none
is more beautiful nor more convenient.
In it's opening there is all the significance
of the opening of life, for it is alive with
intelligence and with promise. 1t is for
tunate that it's work begins at the open

for American boys and girls. Ii is for
tunate that it is in the National Capital.

RICH GOLD DEPOSITS.
The Pecacho Basin Mines and Their
Free Ore.

DENVER. May 15.-The Denver Post"
has the following description of the Pc
cacho Basin gold mines of which SO much
has been written lately:
They are located about twenty miles
north of Yuma, near the Colorado River,
in San Diego County, California. At
present they are being worked by the
California King Gold Mining Company of
New York. a recent observer says:
TO one TO whom mining has been a
lifetime study there are many features
of unusual interest connected with these
mines. In many respects they differ from
all other large deposits of free gold ore
found in this country. Upon entering the
great basin the surrounding mountains
are seen to be covered over with lava,
and the first impression is that the basin
has at one time been an active crater
from which the lava had flown. On
closer examination, however, it is found
that the source of the supply was many
miles farther up On the mountains and
that the flow of lava was south. toward
the Gulf of California. The formation in
which the mines are found is a soft por-
phyry and decomposed quartz; it is hard
to distinguish between the two. and, in
fact the entire formation in the basin
carries gold
There are three ore channels runni1g
through the basin-north, east, and south
west-varying in width from twenty TO 100
feet The distance from the point where
these ore cEutes begin to form to the
point where they are covered up by the
debris fallen from the main mountain in
a northwesterly direction Is at least 2,00O
feet All evidence tends to show that these
ore chutes continue under the mountain
which rises above the basin for 5000 or
1000 feet A cross vein comes into these
main veins from the south. Several thou-
sand tons of ore have been mined in these
chutes ard hauled TO the COLORADO river
and there worked in stamp MIL Inc
ore paid at the least $l5 per ton. Ihe
average ore in these mines is low grade.
More than 100 openings. from 10 TO ZeO
feet deep. have been made in these mines;
the lowest grade of ore found in any OF
the openings VIII mill 81 ton in free
gold. In many places the ore viii mil
from 81 to IS ton. anu it is safe to put
the average at 81 a ton,
Commencing on the southeast end Of
these ore chutes the formation rises grad
ually toward the main mountain. thus
permitting the ore TO be mined by the
cheap method of open cuts. the ledges
being 50 wide that no timber will be re-
ouired to keep the mines open. With a
plaut capable of handling 900 tons of ore
! ner dav the first 1000 600 or 100000 tons
can be mined and milled at a cost not to
exceed Il a ton.
The best proof of the richness and ex-
font of the mines lies in the fact thitt

and 5000. .OO0 in placer gold has been

Mr.. johnson and the others state that
this emphasizes the contention of the res
idents in V Street, which they have in
sisted upon all the while, that the real in
tention is to locate the wagons of the
farmers and the huclsters on the Street
front and that the consent of property
owners on that Street should be obtain
The Commissioners have noted the re
cCpt Of the statement and nave ordered
that it be fled with the other papers on
the subject.
The Commissioners have received from
D. W. Magrath of ZyS Tenth Street north
west, letter enclosing special assess
ment bills against sublots IT, Is. and -.
square 9G2 Mr.. Magrath submits the bills
dated three years apart, and calls the
attention of the Commissioners TO the
fact that they are duplicate bills, and
that he has been called upon twice to pay
the same assessment.
J. w Daniel. special assessment clerk,
after consideration Of the complaint,
has reported to the Commissioners that
the. assessment for sidewalk and curb
against these lots was made in April,
1SjS. and that tie assessment for curb
against the same lots was made in April
1851 three years apart. and that they do
not refer to the same work OF the same
assessment. lie states that Mr.. MagIath
has not been called upon twice TO pay the
same assessment.
1t is understood that the report of Mr.
Daniel will be approved, and that the
complainant win be informed accordingly.
