library has I'm its present quarters in
the third story of the city hall, there
are two open spaces that can be ar
ranged into artistic roof gardens. one
is at the rear of the second story and
the other on the roof of the main build
ing, easily accessible by an ornamental
stairway, which already Is i'm place.
Each of these roof gardens has 10000
rect of floor space, making the total
space available for the new library
quarters 10000 feet The library now is
crowded into 7725 feet.
The board proposes to fit up these
roof gardens as outdoor reading rooms
a feature which will make the new IL
brary distinctly Californian and which,
IL Is believed will appeal to tourists,
a great many of whom visit the library
every day. Librarian Lummis already
has secured bids for fitting up these
roof gardens, and finds it Will cost $3.50
to plank each floor. Chairs, settees,
tables and other convenences will be
arranged and the park department will
be asked to supply potted plants.
Will Move Next Month
1t is planned to begin the removal
of the books as soon as the new build
ing Is completed. Workmen are still
engaged on it, and IL probably will be
two weeks before everything is COM
pleted. The library will be compelled
to furnish fixtures and pay its own
light bill, which the librarian estimates
Will amount to about 500 month. 1t
also will be required to furnish it's own
elevator service. There are two eleva-
tors in the new building, both of which
Will be used exclusively by the library.
The librarian estimates that it will
cost $500 to move and will require
about one weeks time, but that it will
not be necessary to close the library
for single day. Business will be con-
Quoted at both places until everything
Is Installed in the new qarters.
This move has been contemplated by
the library for several months. Ac-
cording to the statement of Director
Dockweiler yesterday, the institution
has reached a point where it cannot
buy any more new books because it
has no place to put them. The shelves
now are filled from the floor to the
ceiling and every available inch of
space is used.
The library pays the city $500 a
month for the quarters it occupies in
the city hall, and 1t will be with
feeling of relief that the council learns
that the rooms are to be vacated. The
rooms occupied by the library are
badly needed for city officials who now
are housed in the Copp building. adj
joining. the city hall. The city en-
gineer also is in need of more room.
and 1t is possible the entire library
floor Will be turned over to his depart
ment when the removal is completed.

GADSKI VISIT
WINTERS MUSICAL TREA T

They are all fine-Calve,
Eames, Alice Neilsen-all
Of 'em. But we take our
hats off to Gadski. She
is the real thing"
We of Los Angeles
didn't have to wait for
last nights concert in
Simpson auditorium to
prove this; we knew It
from her appearance last
season. Then she came a
stranger. and her impre-
sario-of course 1t was
Mr.. Behymer-lost money
on her. He made it up
this time, but he had 1t
coming to him. But that's
neitl-er here nor there;
only that Los Angeles
owes him many thanks
for having the nerve to
try gain. And how glad
we were--more for the
musical reputation of Los
Angeles than anything
else-to see Simpson au-
ditorium packed last
night. And everyone who
was there was more than
glad that he came, for it
was the musical treat of
the winter, bar none.
Gadski is no stranger in
Los Angeles. The music
al quality of her voice
has been exploited and
her art is well known. 1t
may, therefore, be super
fluous to add aught
about it. But one feels
calle | upon to mention
one Or two features of it
that come to one stronger
everj time she sings.
MelIoWness and Control
Her mellowness. her
marvellous control, the
Aexibility of her voice, it's
wondrous shadings, its
lyric qualities-all these
are superb. And in every
one last night she shone.
1t is a daring thing for
a singer, even of world
wide fame, to come to a
city of this size and offer
herself in concert when
her only coadjutor is a
young man who plays the
piano. All the other sing
ers come with concert
companieS-of more or
less eXcellence-who help
them out. And even IL
one doesn't like the prima

chance that one will like
someone else in the ag-

win Work Tonopah Ores.

L. C. Pohl, a metalurgist and min
ing engineer Of much ability and ex-
~perience, with the aid OF I. f. Dun
away, of the Nevada-C California; Ore
gon railway some time ago secured
control of the Boston, Nevada Elect
trical Reduction plant between Reno
and Sparks for the purpose OF test
ing his process Of recovering values
from highly silicious ores
These tests have been going on for
several weeks and have proved to be
very successful. A great deal of ore
from Tonopah was tested according
to Mr.. Pohle and out of the lot SO
per cent of the values was recovered
without resorting to the fuxing
method.
Its now stated that Mr.. Dunaway,
Mr.. Pohle and others will purchase
the reduction plant and greatly en-
large it and expend over 800, 600 in
the work. There are several CAPT
talists interested with Mr.. Pohle.

Ely District.

B. Nj. Howard of Reno returned a
few days since from Ely district and
is perhaps even more enthusiastic
than the people are who have lately
visited that section. MIR. Howard
states that the mineral belt has been
sufficiently defined to be II miles long
by ! IL wide ard in not a single in
stance has a shaft been sunk more
than 55 feet that a body of copper
ore was not uncovered. On the
Knobb mine a shaft has been sunk
800 feet and drifts run at many
points, but no wall discovered. There
are 40 men at work on the property.
The railroad from Toano has beer
graded 81 miles and 80 miles OF track
laid and there seems little doubt but
the line will be completed into Ely BY
the first of June; at present all trave
goes by Eureka and the stages are
taxed to their utmost capacity tt
accommodate the public.

GoldfieId Treasure,

The Salt Lake phople who are in
terested in the Goldfeld Treasure
mining company at Goldfeld have re-
ceiyed information that the manage
ment has let out a number of leases
on the ground, and several sets are
now at work. The ground owned BY
this company joins the Sandstone
properly, and great confidence is
placed in the ultimate outcome of
the group of claims usder this man
agement, says the Salt Lake Tele-
gram.
The company has done considerable
work on the property during the
past year, some good ore having
been found near the surface, some OF
which assayed as high as $87 per ton.
1t is deemed significant that the prop
osition to lease was made to the
company by a number of men EN-
ployed on the property.
Since the leasing method has done
SO much toward developing the vari.
Gus mines of Nevada, it is considered
the best method at present available
to the wners of the ground. The
Goldfeld Treasure management viii
increase the number OF leasers during
the coming season. Each set O
leasers will secure 200 feet by SOC
feet of ground.

PANAMINT
DISTRICT
This Section Of Death Valley
Is Attracting the Attention
Of Prominent Mining Men

The Pheby Bros, who we're pio-
neer assayers Of Tonopah, being sue.
ceeded by that popular young man,
Louis X. Man, are now operating in
the Panamint section Of Death VAL
ley. They spent several days in
Bishop last week and the Inyo Reg
lister has the following to say Of their
visit.
r. S. and Joseph J. Pheby spent
several days last week in Bishop,
having come in from Ballarat, where
they are heavily interested and have
made their residence for the past
several months.
They report a considerable amour
of activity in that section to the
effect that different mines are being
at present thoroughly and systemat-
ically developed. Several recent dis,
coveries have also added enthusiasm
to mining In the Panamlnt country.
The Pleasant Canyon Mining Com
pany, better known as the Mont
gomery mine, in this county, from
the widespread popularity OF Geo.
Montgomery, one of the principal
owners, is now thoroughly opened up
after an extensive period of develop
ment, covering the last year. A
large part Of the initial ten,stamp
mill has been hauled up the canyon
and it is hoped that stamps will be
dropping by March lst. A Bottom
cyanide plant has just been com
pleted and work viii be started at
once on a large pile Of tailings that
have accumulated in the last year.
The mine is said have more than two
years u Of ore, OF a high grade,
blocked out.
w. P. McComas, an eminent min
ing man OF Los Angeles, who has a
host Of friends in Tonopah, and who
has established q reputation in Ari-
iona and Mexico, is the active head of
the mine and work under his super-
vision is progressing with great
vigor. He has d"ismantled and re.
moved the old Bryan mill, which has
crushed many thousands of tons in
past years. The production of the
mine with this small mill is said to
have been $107 900 during the last
twelve months. The ore being
readily crushed, it is not improbable
that ten stamps will handle 40 tons
per day. 1t is said hat the ore
reserves are such that 80 stamps
can easily be kept operating steadily
for a considerable period of time.
Space prevents mention Of many
mining notes of interest, but it can
be said that Ballaratis fast becoming
mining center Of more than pass
ing moment.

Work on the Clark Road is
Being Rushed to Completion.
Clark Will Visit Bullfrog

]. Ross Clark, Of the Tonopah and
Las Vegas railroad, is planning to
visit Rhyolite and the Bullfrog dis
trict between the 10th and 10Th Of
February. He will be accompanied
by Chief Engineer Mcguire and Vice
President Whittemore, Of the new
road. The party will be met at In
dian Creek with automobiles and
brought to Rhyolite, where they will
meet the members Of the board Of
trade and talk over matters of mutual
interest. The autos viii convey the
party to the several places Of interest
in the district, giving the visitors a
knowledge of the conditions here as
broad and comprehensive as a brief
inspection will permit, says the Rhyo-
lite Herald.
During the past week the construc-
ton force has been increased by the
addition OF perhaps fifty men, while
that number OF teams have
been added to the grading outfit.
1t is expected that by today between
sixteen and eighteen miles of track
will have been laid and the grading
extended nearly twenty-five miles.
More men and teams will be added as
soon as accommodations a be pro-
vided

The Violet Ray.

Science is doing some marvel
Gus stunts in the beginning of the
Goth century. Twenty-Five years
hence San Francisco will not be
in it in the way of transformation.
The physical, mental and moral
world will undergo a complete
reconstruction as the result of
scientific discoveries.
The X ray, the photograph
and wireless telegraphy are al
ready relegated to the rear by
the discovery announced by Prof.
Elmer Gates, of ultraviolet rays
of light which afford the first and
only accurate method of determi-
ming whether a person is actually
dead and which will detect the
approach of disease long before
it can be discovered by any skill
of modern medical science.
If what their discoverer claims
for them is borne out, they will
go far toward solving many of
the mysteries of life, death, dis
ease and thought transference.
Living subjects placed in these
rays throw a shadow which ex-
lists only as long as there is life
in the subject. When the sub

Scared Once.

1t affords the American people
a big chunk of satisfaction to
know that the Standard Oil Trust
is put on the defensive, and that
the octupus is evidently prepar-
ing to "cut and run" from Texas
in order to get its books out of
the jurisdiction Of that state.
In an examination before the
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion at Cleveland, George L.
Lane, of Mansfield, Ohio, a for
mer employe of the trust, testi-
fed that he was employed by C.
M. Lyons of the Cleveland Office
Of the Standard Oil to go to GER
tain designated places and use
every means, fair or foul, to force
Independents to quit. my in

In all of the towns, with the ex-
ception of Youngstown, the in

to abandon their business. In
Youngstown a man named VIM.
Il. Vahey was encountered, and
despite everything we could do
he held his trade. We gave oil
away by barrels and the tank

Youngstown, Ohio, ought to
have a gold medal. If there Is
another town in the United States
that stood by the independent
dealer when Standard Oil was
delivered free at the door of its
citizens we fail to remember Il

to accept the OIL, drive the home

program by paying double price
for oil and cursing the trust.

New Mexico.

Let us dub New Mexico 1.-THE
territory that never had a mining
boom, for that appears to be a
true description. And this does
not mean that New Mexico has
not deserved one. While booms
are often decried as foolish, they
nevertheless have a certain eco
nomic value, as much so as the
stock Spectator.
Only recently New Mexico
mining man wrote and described
an enterprise with which he is
connected. He adds;
IF it were not New Mexico,
we would be as widely advertised
as Colorado, Nevada and Utah.
But the old territory reminds me
of a stern-wheel boat, being the
Stern-wheel of this Union. |
hope you will pardon me for my
expressions, especially to a Stran-
ger, but they are facts. People
here are not wide-awake no or
ganization to bring the possibili-
ties here before the world. Too
much Rip Van Wrinkle about
them"
Perhaps the writer of the fore
going was passing through an
hour of pessimism, but we have
heard similar criticisms of New
Mexico before. We expect, some
of these days, to hear of some
thing sensational in that territory
followed by a sudden influx of
prospectors and promoters into
those mineral fields just such
an experience as Nevada has en-
joyed since the discovery of
Tenopah.
1t is difficult to command a
boom. The manner of its COM
ing reminds US Of a saying of the
late Joe jefferson in one of his
delightful lectures. In speaking
of applause and the unexpected
hits which actors make, he said:
The best things happen. And
mark you, it is only a question
of time when New Mexico, in a
moment of surprise to herself,
will win the sharp applause of
the public and the boom will be
on. This is an honest prediction,
based upon the present known
mineral deposits of the old ter
ritory" and an appreciation of
its advantageous location in the
great Southwest. Mining Re-
