A BANK BOOK AT BIRTH.

According to news dispatch from
Berlin, legislation has been enacted
in Schoeneberg, that every child will
start in life with bank account.
The ordinance requires that whenever
the birth of child is recorded, the
officials of the municipal savings bank
shall issue bank book with its name
as starter towards wealth. The
city itself will deposit one mark for
each child, the deposit at once begin
ming to pay interest. With this nest
egg the authorities believe the parents
of the child will be encouraged to
make substantial increases of the
amount.
This certainly is a good move in
the right direction, and while Ameri-
can municipalities may never come to
this, Americans are fast learning the
value of teaching their little ones the
saving habit. Parents and friends
are opening small savings accounts
for their children and little friends
early in life and eventually turn the
savings bank book over to them to
continue to add to the nest egg from
their own earnings. The First Ma
tional bank of Wausau has a large
number of accounts of this nature.
They are always welcome at this
bank, and especial attention is given
them, and practical helps in the way
of home savings banks are provided
for the use of the little beginners.
Why not consult with the officers of
the First National regarding the
starting of Savings Accounts for the
little ones.

An action started in municipal
court by Albert Zastrow against Nor
riS Dalton was decided last week in
favor of the complainant. At the
time Mr.. Dalton sold the Old Eng
fish Chop House to Zastrow & LANCE
a contract was drawn up the terms of
which denied Mr.. Dalton the right to
again engage in the restaurant bust
ness while MesSrS. ZaStrow & Lange
conducted thechop house. Mr.. LANCE
later disposed of his interest to his
partner. The contract was SO worded
that it appeared to Mr.. Dalton that
as soon as one of the partners went
out of business it left an opening
whereby Mr.. Dalton could again open
restaurant, and he did so. The
court assessed the latter S25 damages
and S41.9l court costs. There will
probably be an appeal taken.

U. s. REPORTS vALLEclTAs

In. the geological surveys preliminary
report on the Vallecitos district, Geolo-
gist Anderson says the best part of the
field is that extending for several miles
north, northeast and northwest from
the Ashurst ranch house. In the area
described are the Range 16, the Valle-
citos Development and the Sussex COM
panies.
The Range 16 is the pioneer one OF
these, and is down several hundred feet
in it's we'll No. l. The other two COM
panies are hauling material as fast as
possible from the railroad and win soon
spud in.
According to the preliminary report,
which has just come from the govern
ment press, the big pay streak in this
part of the field will be encountered at
less than 2000 feet.

MANHATTAN MINES MAY
| CONSOLIDATE INTERESTS
New Strike Occurs Near Nina.
Red Metals Makes Shipment.
Other Nevada News

TONOPAH, New, Dec. T.-With the
many glowing reports coming from
the camp of Manhattan, one has re-
Gently reached this city relative to
the consolidation of two important
workings in that district. According
to reports from an authentic source
the coalition will be between the Lamb
interests ON the Little Grey and the
Brabrook holdings in the Dexter
| leases.
| w. c. Lamb and George II. Bra
brook, the two interested parties, left
yesterday for the placer camp and
1t was given out that a meeting
would be held there today to consum-
mate the deal. Mr.. Brabrook only re-
turned from the coast few days ago,
where he conferred with his asso-
ciateS about the transaction.
| Should the consolidation take place,
| 1t will mean better working faclli-
ties for the two properties and also
greater income for those interested.
| NINA, New, Dec. 1.-THE section
about twelve miles west of Nina has
always been considered a great min
eralized zone. A number of proper
ties in that section, like the Garfield,
Blue Light, Bell and Lincoln, have
made big productions. But recently
| parties have taken up new ground and
| started to prospect. Among them are
| Jack Christensen and r. Iverson.
They have had men at work on the
location for some time past doing as
| sessment work. Two and a half feet of
| ore was uncovered at depth of only
ten feet. The ledge is strong and well
defined. Assays return values of from
S44 to $3.50 ton.
| The ore is q lead-silver, carrying
| besides these ores, gold and copper.
The strike has created considerable
interest and other parties are going
to the scene. Further work of devel-
| opment will be carried on and the
ledge fully explored.
| RENO, New, Dec. 17.-Another ship
ment of ore is being made from the
Red Metals mine on Peavine mountain,
almost in sight of this city.
The previous shipment netted about
$40 to the ton in gold, silver and
copper, despite the distance the ore
had to be hauled by wagon before
starting on its long journey to the
sn1elter.
The carload that is now about
ready to go out is of extra fine grade.
While occasional nuggets are seen,
the gold is usually in the form of q
yellow glaze over the bornite and sui
phides, q rather unusual occurrence
The Red Metals company is well
equipped for winter campaign. 1t Is
above the present snow line, but the
men have comfortable quarters and
the ore wagons return with provisions
and supplies. 1t is probable that work
will continue all winter.
The ore that is being shipped comes
from comparatively shallow workings,
but the long tunnel, it is expected
will soon cut the ledge at great depth

COMPANY ORGANIZES TO
OPERATE MEXICAN MINE

PARRAL. Chi, Mexico. Dec. IL
One of the most important deals in
recent years was contaminated few
days ago in New York city, whereby
n company was formed with 100000
gold to take over the San Rafael, Te-
colota, Ell Porvenir and Nueva Aus
tralia properties in the Guanacevi dis
trict.
The capital is divided into S500.000
treasury stock and 100000 working
capital. 1t is planned by the officers
of the company to begin operations on
the properties after the first of the
year.
The properties are well located in
the heart of the rich Guanacevi district
and have been excellent producers in
the past. Engineers who visited the
properties and made Investigations re-
ported that values would increase with
depth. With this information before
them the deal was closed and a large
mart of the capital subscribed.

LONG TERM LEASE TO
ICE CREAM COMPANY
Brokerage Firm Suggests Need
of Extension of ManufaC-
turing District

The business leasing department OF
the w. Ross Campbell company re-
ports the closing of an important lease
for the full term of five years to the
Metropolitan Ice Cream company. the
property being two-story brick build
ing with cream colored pressed brick
and plate glass front, to be erected on
a lot at Asa East Third street, owned
by T. J. Stephens of San Francisco
and Los Angeles.
The business of the Metropolitan Ice
Cream company has grown so rapidly
during the last three years that the
building which they had built for them
at that time On West Pico street is in
adequate for their present needs. The
new factory which is being designed
especially for their use will be equipped
with the most MODERN machinery and
appliances, and with the exception of
one factory will surpass any other west
of Chicago.
The w. Ross Campbell company re-
ports an increasing demand for indus
trial locations and believes that as soon
as larger industrial district boundary
lines are determined the city will be
in a better position to offer attractive
inducements for the establishment of
numerous manufacturing plants.

BUILD WAGON ROADS
IN KETTLEMAN HILLS
K. H. Company Lays Extensive
Plans for Developing Terri
tory Near CoaIinga

COALINGA, Dec. 17.-The *. II. Oil
company, organized to assist in devel-
oping land in the Kings county oil belt,
has built over twenty-five miles of
roads through the Kettleman Hills,
making it possible for economic de-
velopment of that region. The roads
are broad, with good even grade where
possible, enabling teams to haul three
times more than formerly; in fact,
in some portions of the district it was
impossible to haul the empty wagon.
A water system has been established,
water wells have been drilled that are
now furnishing the properties along the
seven miles of pipe line with good boiler
water.
The cooperation effected by this or
ganization has enabled many a poor
locator to develop his holdings, who
without this assistance would have
been crowded out by the great natural
physical difficulties that surround de-
velopment in these hills.
The Midland Oil company, section IL,
1915, well No. /, is 5S2 feet deep with
10-inch casing. water sand twenty
feet thick has been entered, the water
flowing over the casing head. The sand
is brownish. and the water is charged
with sulphur, making the best boiler
water in that section of the field. The
outcroppings on section g. 1915 west
of this well. indicate about 100 feet of
oil sand which should be entered at
about 1900 feet.
LANDS BIG CASING
The Pulvadero. Oil company, section
2, 2I-16, landed the 1215-inch casing at
1O47 feet and shut off the water. and
the hole was drilled to about HOO feet.
The hole will be tested as soon as the
water is bailed off, If the shutoff job
holds the we'll will be cleaned out to
the bottom and the sand entered Will
be given a thorough test.
SO far the tests made have shown
light oil indications. The first oil sand
was entered at S65 feet. Those who
have examined this sand carefully and
compared 1t with sand entered at 1850
feet in the Lake View well Ckings
county, declare it to be the same sand.
If this be correct, this makes the pay
sand in the Pulvadero well about 1000
feet shallower than the Lake View.
The latter we'll is about two miles east
of the apex of the Coalinga anticline,
while the Pulvadero is about three
fourths of a mile from the apex or the
same anticliue.
An employe of the Standard Oil COM
pany who has examined the oil, taking
into account the dip in the formation
as indicated by the wells drilled on the
east slope of this anticline, ventures the
opinion that the pay sand will not be
over 1900 feet Deep and that the oil Will
be light in gravity. This the drilling
bit in the hands of intelligent drillers
will best determine

pected that the pay streak will be en-
countered at less than 1000 feet.
The Atlanta Oil company will spud
