v IRGINIA CITY, May 1.-The Alamo
" mining district, the discovery of
which several weeks ago by the
hundreds of people from this city, Carson
and Reno, is greatly excited over the
presence of surveying corps that is
said to have been sent there by the
Southern Pacific Company.
The surveyors decline to state their
mission, but the general belief is that
they are from the Southern Pacific and
that the road means to secure, if pos
sible, patents to the alternate sections of
land, the entire distance being within
the old Central Pacific subsidiary zone
For several months the railroad COM
pany has been actively engaged in abb
sorbing mining lands throughout Ne
vada, in several instances applying for
patents to mines that are in operation.

Letter 20 7. d. tiamiIl
Oakland, Nd.

Dear Sir; Our agent ought to sell
nine-tenths Of the paint Of his town and
region; no use to try for the other
tenth. The proportion Of men, who
won't take good advice, and use the
least-gallons paint, is about one in ten
among even owners of houses and stores
and shops and barns and fences.
One man in ten will buy a gold brick
or green goods, if he has the money and
gets good chance
Devoe at Sl.75 a gallon is better than
gold; adulterated and short measure
paints are green goods and gold bricks.
Devoe saves half, more or less, of the
labor and wages of painting; it is all
paint; full strength and full measure.
There is no other such paint within ten
per cent. Ten per cent of labor and
paint is worth saving; and ten is the
least. There are scores of paints that
throw-away half of both gallons and
labor on whiting, china-clay, ground
stone, barytes, benzine, waterfall they
are good for is to make gallons of moth
ing and look like paint in the can; more
gallons to buy and more gallons to pay
for putting on-gold bricks and green
goods. Here's how they work.
