A Red-Llght Shooting Scrape

A. l.. Venrick, a late arrival in
town, went on the warpath last
night and wound up in the red
light district early this morning.
There he got into a row with the
inmates of the house and was
knocked down by Oliver Fee. He
then left and returned in a few min
utes with a gun to use on Oliver.
Not finding Oliver, he had a row
with another man and shot him
through the flesh under the right
arm. The men graippled and in the
scutfie the gun was again discharged
and the bullet went through the
mans foot. Officer Cotant placed
Venrick under arrest and the
wounded man was taken TO the
county hospital. He is about %
years of age. His name is sup
pressed on account of his
mother and not for any respect for
him. He is not seriously hurt.

Mining Camps in North Central Nevada

a report on mining camps in Elko
county and in parts of Lander and En-
reka counties, Nevada. by William Ii.
Emmons, g%eologist, has just been pub
lished by the United States geological
survey as bulletin i0S. The report con-
tains descriptions of the geology and ore
deposity Of 30 mining camps. The area
surveyed comprises about 1000 square
miles and includes the famous Tusca.
rora mines, which even before the Com.
stock lode had reached its point of
highest production, had yielded gold
and silver having a value of millions of
dollars.
Nevada has long been a great pro.
ducerof the precious metals and has
also contributed to the worlds metallic
wealth large amounts of copper, Iced
and zinc. Tho fame of the Comstock
became world wide as long z as 1860.
and in those days prospecting was the
principal business Of the rapidly in.
creasing population Of this region.
Many valuable ore deposits were
discovered during the ten years follow.
ing and the mining of silver in Nevada
reached its highest activity in the
seventies and eighties. The decline Of
silver mining in the ninotics, the
prominence of silver coinage US a political
issue, and the final exaltation of tho
white metal to u dominating place in a
presidential campaign have bscamc a
part of the important chapter Of the
history oftho United States.
After a long period Of neglect
prospecting was energctically resumed
in Elko county in 1906 and 1907 and
resulted in the establishment of several
new comps, like Gold Circle. In 1907
the mines in tho area surveyed by Mr..
Emmons produced metals valued at
1850, 600.
MIR. EtnmUns describes the geology Of
the region, the general character of the
