ORE AT GRASS ROOTS.
New Find at Barratt Springs Near
The 'f01G' Group.

Only two feet unier ground, rock
was dug up a few days ago at the
new camp of Barratt Springs, eight
miles west of Winhemucca, which
went $3.50 to the ton, over two
ounces of which were in gold, said
j. X. Mulkey, who jlst left there,
after having spent about two weeks
at Los Angeles and San Francisco on
mining business. This find was made
on the property of b. Klucny n
George Taught. 1t is close to the
1910 group, on which eleven leas-
ers are now at work, and where the
discovery of $4,000 rock caused a
small stampede { the new section a
few months ago.

NEVADA'S WILDCAT LAW.
Needs Perfection at Hands of the
Coming Legislature.

One of the things that the next
legislature ought to do is to perfect
the wildcat law. Mining men say
that it is admirable in intent and
motive, but defective in some spots,
because of particular requirements.
For instance. the law provides in
one part that there shall be a report
of five months and a second report OF
six months, making eleven months in
the year reported on. That leaves
one month out. Then again it pro-
vides 70. a report on the first of No
vember for the preceding six months.
That gives twenty-four hours for a
report from companies which often
have Claims hundreds of miles dis
tant from the main office. Then
again it requires specifications of all
and singular. on the claims since the
last report. This provision to be
literally carried out does no particu-
lar good. If 1t included only the
substantial mining buildings 1t
would not be so bad.
The wildcat law as a whole is a
good one. 1t does and has done good
work. There is more legitimate min
ing in Nevada today than ever before
because there is no chance for illegi-
innate mining through fake stock
issues.-Rhyolite Herald.

RICE LOSES HIS OPTION
ON JUMBO.EXTENS|0N
FAILED TO MEET PAYMENTS IN
DEAL THAT ATTRACTED MUCH
ATTENTION IN MINING CIRCLES
AND CONTRACT HAS LAPSED.

The Jumbo Extension estate is
again the sole property of the Jumbo
Extension Mining company, for
George Graham Rice has failed TO
meet his fourth payment under the
purchase contract made last August,
and his contract has lapsed. There
by the New Yorker forfeited $37, 500
the total of the three payments of
S12,500 each. The forfeiture was eff
fected by the failure to pay the in
stallment due the 18th of this month.
Rice and his associates contracted
for the purchase of the control of the
company's stock from its principal
stakeholder, Thomas G.. Lockhart;
sos, 600 shares were involved In the
deal at a purchase price of 3 cents a
share, making a total payment to be
made in amounts of $12.500 month
ly, $220,050. Under the contract
Rice was to receive stock for each
payment. hence there has been de-
iivered to the New Yorker over o.
900 shares of Jumbo Elk. 1t is not
probable that Rice will hold this
stock.
The deal entered into between Rice
and Loekhart for the purchase of the
Jumbo Extension attracted great at
tention in mining circles. especially
when the stock, Immediately folliw-
ing the publicity given the deal, ad-
vanced rapidly from around 25 cents
to over 40 cents. There 1t remained
for some weeks. but finally advanced
to as high as 81 cents. Then came
the raid upon Scheftels q Co, in New
UArH tho orrngf Of u Hoe and afhnrg
and every stock in which this firm
was interested slumped to a decided
extent. Jumbo Extension. however,
held up comparatively strong, be-
cause the worth of the property was
generally known and also the stand
ing of the company to which it was
felt the property would revert should
Rice not complete his end of the deal.

The entire party finally was taken
aboard, even to the cat, which was
taken along as a mascot The Amer
lea was abandoned where the rescue
occurred, in latitude 35.43, longitude
68.18
In abandoning their craft the crew
of the airship America lowered them
selves into the lifeboat which swung
beneath it. Then they cast the life
boat off and were afoat on the sea.
The airship, relieved of the weight of
the lifeboat, shot high into the air
and was blown away rapidly The
transfer of the Wellman party from
the lifeboat to the Trent was made
with great difficulty,
At 80 a. m. the Trent sighted the
airship America and wireless COM
munication was established immedi-
ately Irwin, the operator on the air
ship, informed Ginsburg, operator on
the Trent, that the Americas crew
wished to abandon the balloon. Wire
less communication was kept up from
this time on between the airship and
the steamer
After a council held on the airship
it was decided that the best means of
rescue was to launch the lifeboat.
But this was such a hazardous under
taking that much time elapsed before
the maneuvering was executed, as the
tail OF the airship, consisting of tanks
of gasoline and wooden blocks, threat
ened to capsize the boat as it was
dropped from the balloon into the
water
Immediately on beng released of
the weight of the crew and boat, the
airship shot skyward as the boat shot
downward
Undoubtedly the America has bro
ken all records. both as - time in
air and distance covered. The pre-
vious time record, that of Count Yep
pelin, was 81 hours. The Americas
time up to eight o'clock Tuesday
morning would be three full days, or
70 hours The previous distance rec
ord wa that of Count Zeppelin, $50
miles
Wellman says, and the members of
his crew agree with him, that they
might have gone on indefinitely in
the America, but that they had jet
tisoned SO much gasoline that they
were short of fuel and thought it
would be foolhardy to venture further.
It was the unanimous opinion of all
on the America after they got in the
lane of the Cuban steamers that the
first chance for a rescue offered
would be accepted

History of Bed Cross Seal.

CHARITY stamps" first used in
Boston in 1862 for the soldiers relef
funds during the Civil war, were the
original forerunners of the Red cross
Christmas seal, which will be used
this year to bring happiness and cneer
to millions. The Delaware Antl-Tu-
berculosis society in 1907 for the nrst
time in America made use OF stamp
for the purpose of getting revenue to
fight consumption. In hastily or
ganized campaign of only three weeks
they realized $4,000. The next year.
1908, the American Red Cross con-
Quoted the first national tuberculosis
stamp campaign. From this sale $780,
600 was realized for the anti-tubercu-
Iosis movement In 1909, under many
adverse conditions, $25O,000 was rea-
lized from these stamps. This year
the slogan of the tuberculosis fighters
and the Red Cross is "a Million for
