JAY GOULD WANTED TT.

The castle of Chapultepec, the Of
fetal summer residence Of the presi-
dentNof Mexico, is to be either rebuilt
or abandoned entirely, and more
modern house is to be erected for the
uses of the chief executive. This is a
project that has been hanging fire for
about sixteen years. Before this
time Jay Gould had visited Mexico in
search of a climate that would ben
eft his failing health. At that time
1t was stated that he had offered
President Diaz $5,0O0,O0O for the
castle of the Chaputelpec, for the
purpose of making it his home for
part Of the year. The offer was, of
course. refused. The castle is one of
the most noted and historic in Mex
leo. It's history dates back to the
days when Mexico was ruled by Span
ish viceroys It was originally built
as the official home of the viceroys.
It served during the days when Mex
leo was an empire, then republic
again, always as the official residence
of the ruler.

The development of copper mines
east of Lovelock continues The
greatest work has been done on the
properties OF the Nevada United COM
pany of which ]. T. Reid is manager.
For the past few weeks the work of
driving the S0O-foot tunnel on this
property has been retarded on &C
count Of making needed repairs to
the boiler. The Burnley drills which
were advancing the tunnel at the rate
of nine feet day were taken of
though the slower hand drilling has
been kept up and the tunnel advanced
at about four feet per day.
A crosscut made at 400 feet from
the mouth of this tunnel has cut a
sulphide ore zone for sixty feet and
has not yet reached the opposite wall.
From this crosscut they will make a
raise up through the sulphide zone
some 400 feet to the old workings
where such large deposits of rich
copper ore are developed.
A recent assay from these work
ings showed 81 per cent copper. be-
sides good values in silver and gold.

north of the Nevada United holdings

ledge rich in galena, silver and cop

while the copper stains are heavy and
chunks of galeDa glisten all through
it, This new find but adds another

Mr.. G. M. Tucker, at one time the
proprietor of the Barrel house, but
who sold out and left here about
three months ago, arrived in town
from Oasis on Wednesday. He has
located group of claims on Cotton
wood creek, three or four miles west
of Oasis, and has sack of specimens
that would indicate that he is hot on
the right trail, and will catch 1t good
in the near future. The main ledge
in the group shows vein matter which
pans for five or six feet in width, but
two feet of it carries the best values,
and several assays show returns bet
ter than 500, and the lowest re-
ceived showed the handsome figure
of 1926. The rock carries small
percentage of silver and il slightly
copper stained.
On the group are four more small
er veins, which are dipping in man
ner which indicates that they will
join when depth is gained. One Of
them shows some splendid lunches
of silver-lead, and promises to de-
velop into bonanza In that line. Mr..
Tucker feels highly elated over his
prospects, and has plans for a large
lot of development work during the
coming season.
There are many prospectors now
in the Oasis country, and much WORK

to let Thy eternal light shine upon

THE POPULATION OF FRANCE.

The result Of the quinquennial GEN.
sus Of France, taken March last,
have now been published In outline,
and they show that in the five years
the population has increased 290,322,
or three-Quarters Of / per cent. With
a population OF 39.337.235. it would
take France full decade to reach
40.000.0 .000.. Meantime Germany adds
three and three-Quarters millions to
her population In FIVE years, or about
thirteen additional Germans to every
additional Frenchman.
The excess Of births over deaths In
Germany is about 14S per 10000 OF
the population a year. but in France
in 1905 1t was only 10 per 10000, and
for the five-year period ending in that
year 1t was only 10 per 10000. II the
birth rate should continue to decline
In France at the rate it has declined
during the past century. comparing
the latest fve-year period with the
nve years from 1925 to 1880, 1t would
only be another generation before
there would begin to be absolute de-
population In that country.
However. 1t is not safe to make pre-
dicuons on the basis OF the figures
just given. There have been years
and even fve-year periods when the
increase was much less than 1t is
now, as well as others when 1t was
much greater. From 1881 to 1S40 the
average annual increase fell to SO per
10000. BY 1910 1t had risen to As.
and BY 184b. for the full period OF
ave years It averaged "a BY 1856 1t
had sunk to 20. nearly the recent fg-
ure. then It rose to 3s in 1865. For
the nve years ending In 1870 1t was
only Is. and for the following five
years only s. Then there was an In
crease to 20 for the period ending
1880, which fell slightly to 25 the next
ave ysars. After that the rate rum.
olsd to II from 1885 to 1890, and to
