The lower portion of the range, to
the west of Marysvale, is a zone of
quartzite and limestone faulted and
traversed by dykes of eruptive ma

Back in the strictly eruptive area
the product is almost exclusively gold

Almost every portion of the belt is
well timbered and watered. The Rio

Horse Battery Kept ON Firing Al

Among the amusing features Of the
counted by Adjt Gen. Thomas Barry,
chief of staff, as one of the most I'M
usual cinfiicts in the history of war.
Among the points defended by the
army was a signal station on Montauk
Point. Here was stationed a horse
battery, intended to cover the Signal
Corps and also to be able to withdraw
in case of serious attack. This latter
duty was not fully comprehended by
the gallant artillerymen. Accordingly,
when the Kearsarge, the Alabama, the
Brooklyn, the Olympia and all the
other big ships of the fleet sailed up
and opened their batteries on the signal
station, bringing into play every gun,
from the 13-inch to the rapid fire ones,
the defenders of the shore displayed no
intention of retreat.
Wheeling their two s.uaIl cannon into
point blank range, they returned the
fire of the combined fleet Faster and
faster came the shots of the horse ar
tillery. Theoretically they were an
initiated; practically, they were only
spurred to still greater activity. Not
until the umpires signaled them to
stop firing, and later informed them
that they were all dead, did the brave
gunners pause. Not since the day of
the Mantanzas mule has so unequal 4
fight been waged so successfully.
