A Chamber of Mines Building in Los
 Angeles.

A special meeting of the Board of Directors of the Los Angeles Chamber of Mines was held We'd nesday night, Aug. 4th, to discuss plans and consider ways and means for the erection of a contemplated Chamber of Mines Building in Los Angeles If the plans now in a tentative state are developed and carried out as anticipated, the Los Angeles Chamber of Mines will have a building of it's own, not only for its headquarters, but also as a center for offices of mining and oil-prodncing companies, min ing engineers, machinery and sup ply houses; in short, a general mining headquarters.
 Under the plans being discussed, 1t is proposed to erect or lease building with store space on the ground floor; offices, exhibit halls, reading room and assembly hall for the Chamber on the second floor; the balance of the building to be devoted to general offices.
 The Chamber of Mines is one of the most active and progressive of the civic institutions of Los Angeles and has accomplished a great deal during the two and a half years of its existence for the mining indus try generally, its influence being made effective in great many public affairs. Its membership has been growing at rapid rate dur ing the past six months, and it is our opinion that the institution is one we'll meriting not only the moral but financial support of every operating company in the Southwest, as we'll as every public spirited citizen interested in any of the various phases of the mining and oil industries.

He left Monday for La Dura after transferring his hotel to Mrs. Jack Robinson, the wife of the new sta tion agent. Goodbye Herman and good luck to Mrs. Robinson who will try her utmost to satisfy the hungry mining elements of Alamos.
 Mir. c. H. Cook, a prominent mining man and millionaire banker from Goldfeld, Nevada, who had teen here for several days with a view of interesting in mining prop critics around Alamos left last Monday for Guaymas in company with Mir. Jack Davis better known among his friends as Diamond Jack" d successful mining promoter also from Gold6eld, Nevada. They have organized a development com pany of fifteen million dollars and expect to open up and establish another Goldfield in and around Sobia near Alarnos, Sonora. It is rumored that his company bought out the Jacalitos Mining Company and have acquired all the other properties in Sobia, They expect to build a railroad north of the Rio Mayo from Navojoa via Tesla and Camoa to that promising camp and to commence development work on big scale.
