A cc:&... responding thickening is made in the vein at other points, for the graphite is not lost by the folding and pinching but the part that is squeezed out in one place is forced into the bed at another, thickening the mass correspondirgly. One lenticular mass of graphite, which has been worked out reached thickness of twenty-four feet with breadth of seventy five feet verti- cally and one hundred and fifty feet horizontally. On the sixth level (one hundred and two feet vertical depth) a mass nine feet thick was being stopped at the time of my visit. It had been mined from the seventh level almost t0 the fifth and had a width of per- haps thirty feet. The wall rock is in most places is a sandstone, at points so fine grained that it is shady, and at others comparatively coarse. In places the wall rock is white granite from which dikes from one-eighth inch upward in thickness penetrate the graphite. At other places small lenticular masses of granite few inches in length and one or two inches in thickness, which have been parted from dykes in squeezing, occur in the graphite. The walls are ordin- arily smooth and polished, the graphite upon them looking like fine lustrous, black enamel. Here and there horses of the country rock jut into the bed owing to the faulting on both sides and almost, or quite cut off the graphite. In places lenticular masses of sand stone which are very similar to the sandstone lenticles sometimes found
 in coal beds, are buried in the
 graphite. They do not however, so far as saw, have any persistent characteristic in their relative dis !, tance from the walls. This may be due to crushing having dis placed them and given them new positions as regards top or bottom of the bed. These masses reach four to eight feet in length by six to eight inches in thickness and are easily picked out from the : mined material.
 : "rhe graphite has the familiar sub-metallic, grayiSh black luster l which is unique and so character istic that it can be described only : as graphite Most of it is in small l lenticles produced by slipping } within the bed probably due to the 3 disturbance of the rocks resulting : from the intrusion of the granite. i, The lenticles are from an inch to seven inches long and are easily , broken into smaller pieces. Some l of the fragments show a distinct S parallel structure similar to that n of coal, but with the stratifcation f lines very close together. The . graphite is so soft and friable that

It seems probable that the boulders are hardened by exposure to the hot sun.
 "The headquarters house and the main shaft are situated upon a hill perhaps one hundred feet above the valley. Aneroid baro- meter readings show the house to be four hundred and seventy-fve feet above La Colorado. The eleva. ton above sea level is about one thousand three hundred feet. At present work is being carried on from two shafts known as the west shaft, about seven hundred feet west of headquarters house, and the north shaft, about the same distance northeast of the house. A
 number of beds of graphite occur, at least seven. Only one is ex- posed in the west shaft, but in the
 north shaft six beds have been cut,
 Around both of the shafts every

GRAPHITE MINING IN MEXICO.
E Description of Extensive Mines In
 the San Marciai Region.

Readers of THE OASIS have ob- served from time to time mention of he graphite mines in Sonora, and the shipment of their output from La Colorado and Torres sta ton, on the line of the Sonora railway, about sixty miles north from Guaymas. The United States Graphite Company of Saginaw, Michigan, which owns and operates those mines, has complimented TIE OASIS with presentation of an elegant descriptive brochure of two dozen 12mo. pages, illustrated with as many half tone engravings, that has been found 50 interesting that it is transferred almost bodily to these columns without any apology, and is embraced in the following paragraphs:
 Although graphite-also called plumbago and black lead-is a mineral used by all of us in one form or another every day of our lives few have much of an idea of the many purposes for which it is utilized and still fewer more than passing knowledge of its origin.
 Graphite is found in many parts of the world but seldom in paying quantity or quality. It comes from Mexico, from Ceylon, from Europe and from Asia, and occurs frequently throughout the United States and Canada. The greatest production on this contin- ent however is in Mexico at mines operated by ourselves and it is the purpose of this booklet to give those interested in the subject something of an idea of Graphite Mining in MericO. This, perhaps may be best accomplished by sub hitting excerpts from the report oI Mr. Frank l.. Hess, who visited oul Mexican mines in March of 1909 Mr. Hess is in the service of tht United States Geological Survey and is specialist in examination of mineral deposits.
 But before going into this mat ter of mining, it may be well tC direct attention to, the fact tha therea are two formations of graphite crystalline or flake and amor phous or non-structural, as we'll a to the fact that to be best suited |, manufacturing purposes graphite must be pnre-uniformly pure and ndcapable ofthe most minute pull Verlzation in order to permit of it Intimate and permanent incorpora ton with other materials.

 "The Santa Maria graphite de. posits, So sal.led from the name of the grant upon which they are sit uated are located about twenty miles south of the mining town of La Colorado, in central Sonora, Mexico, and are owned and oper- ated by the United States Graphite Company, of Saginaw, Michigan. The deposits were discovered in 1867, and work was begun on them in 1891, though commercial opera tions did not commence until 1895, since which time the present com pany has operated the mines. From the United States they are reached from Benson, Arizona, over a Southern Pacific branch, which, as soon as it crosses the interna- tional boundary is known as the Ferrocarril de Sonora. When go- ing to the mines it is ordinarily best to stop at Hermosillo, where a good nights rest can be obtained at comfortable hotel. On the following day the journey is re- sumed southward toward Torres, and from there over narrow-guage railroad to the town of La Colorado. From La Colorado travel is a little east of south over very good wa gon road along which there are neither houses nor water. The country is dry and little more than a desert except for three months-July, August and Sep tember during the rainy season, when It is green and blooming. , "The vegetation consists oi thorny trees and shrubs, with a still thornier cholla, a form of cactus two to four feet high, which grows abundantly, and other cacti : which to the northern eye are very wierd and interesting. The trees r are largely green-barked and or dinarily of low growth being only } fifteen or twenty feet high; and fol a distance of twelve to fifteen mile: nearly all the large ones have beer
 cut for wood to be used at the golC : mines at La Colorado, which art among the important mines o { North America. The palo verd, !, and the palo 6erro make good fire wood, especially the latter.

This Time Quincy Takes Hand in

ship in the Line.

The Quincy Wing now sells the T.
Z. & w. to the Burlington route, the
following from this mornings issue
telling Of the deal:
Rumor that the Burlington system
has absorbed the Toledo, Peoria and
Western railroad has become SO per-
sfstent during the past few days that
railroad men are becoming convinced
that some definite negotiations have
been entered into and only wait COM
pletion before being made public. The
road acquired will be an extremely
valuable addition to the Hill system,
as it has quite a large mileage, has an
available and rich territory of a great
area to draw from, and as the officials
Of the two roads could never come to
any agreement as to train schedules,
will add much to the convenience of
the travelling public and the efficiency
of the roads. The road extends
from central Iowa across the middle
of Illinois, Indiana, and to Toledo,
Ohio.
That the Burlington system has
held considerable stock in the T.. P.
& w. for some years is generally be-
lieved, but not enough was controlled
to determine the policy and secure a
harmonious working of the two lines
One rumor says that the Burlington
has leased the road for long term
of years, but in the light Of the hold

ings already in the smaller line it
seems reasonable to believe they
bought 1t outright.
Burlington officials who might con-
firm or deny the report are reticent,
but they stated that the high officials
of the road have made several trips
in special cars over the road to ex-
anime the road bed, depots and gener-
al supplies, and think that negotia-
tions are on foot for some kind Of
consolidation
The T., P. & w. road crosses the
Quincy-Galesburg branch of the Bur
lington at Bushnell, which is about
seventy miles from this city Here
tofore trains made poor connections
at that point, the effort of the SEIZED
ule makers seeming to be to maze
change of cars there as unhandy as
possible. This line of the smaller
road has direct route to Peoria. and
the distance to the distillery city will
be shortened several miles. The ac
commodations on the Peoria road
have been very poor, and it is prob
able that when the new management
gets busy, better service and equip
ment will be furnished
