is natures most valuable and to-givirg

4 GOOD WORD FOR THE
.QUARTZSlTE MINING
COUNTRY

Mr.. Frank Saburn and his
brother who left two weeks ago
going down the Colorado river
have visited the Quartzsite dis
trict which is receiving much
newspaper prominence at the
present time. Mr.. Seaburn is a
well qualified mining man and lis
comments are of general inter
est. He says that quartz mining
is comparatively new in the camp
as nearly all the work formerly
has been confined to placers.
There is an immense scope of
placer ground all around Quartz
site for several miles in all
directions, and a great deal of
gold has been taken out in d
small way by dry washing, and
undoubtedly there is a great deal
still in the country. The coun-
try seems to be- badly broken up,
the whole surface being a net
work of stringers and blowouts
of white-quartz. The gold bear
ing quartz in the district usually
carries either copper or lead.
There are two 5-stamp mills at
Quartzsite. The 150-Stamp mill
of which we hear so much is to
be erected on a .cement PROPOSE
ton seven: miles southwest of
Quartzsite. They are now grad
ing for the mill and have part
of the machinery on the ground,
hauling it from Hohawk Sum
NIT on the Southern Pacific, 95
miles away. The erection of the
mill commences about January
18th. The cement is said to be
from 10 to 40 feet in, thickness
and carrying values from $3.50
to Sl5 per ton. Quartzsite is 81
tuated about 90 miles east of the
famous old camp Of La Paz, and
on the east side of the summit of
the river range. There is plenty
Of water in camp.-Needles Eye.

captains to correct their chrome

practical uses. a message has
been sent from Kansas City to
Cleveland, Ohio, a distance of
725 miles; while in Europe one
has been sent from Cornwall,
England, to Anoona, Italy, a
distance of 1000 miles. Not

advantage of the wireless is
that it doesn't require poles or
the right of way. Every man
