tics show that there are 1,1S1 produc-
ing mines in California, of which 500
are deep mines and 5S5 placers, includ-
ing dredge, hydraulic, drift and surface
claims. Dredge mining seems to be
the only form of placer work which is
showing any marked advance, the
yield from the other placers being eth
er at a standstill or showing decline
The reasons for these conditions are
that the ordinary surface and shallow
claims are gradually being exhausted;
the laws are unfavorable to the prose
cution Of large hydraulic enterprises
except in a few countless and abundant
capital is necessary for opening drift
mines, and this is not readily available
where so long a time may elapse be-
fore a profitable channel is reached.
One important factor in connection
with the gold-mining industry of Cali
fornia, and one to be deplored, is the
marked cessation of prospecting opera
tons and the resultant decline in dis
coveries of new mines, mainly in the
mountain and foothill regions where
extensive national forests have been
established
For several days there has been a
gradual decline in the copper output
of California owing to the closing
down OF large smelling plants by liti-
cation over damages by smelter fumes.
In 1912, however, an increase in out
put of copper is apparent over the yield
of 1911, Notwithstanding the permanent
cessation of operations in 1911 of one
Of the very large plants of the state.
Lead mining in California shows lit
tie change in 1912, although a lessened
output as compared with 1911 is ap-
parent. In 1911 the figures for mine
production were 1,39S,111 pounds. but
the preliminary returns for 1912 indi.
cate only yield of 1892, 900 pounds.
The lead continues to come mainly
from Inyo, Mono and san Bernardino
counties.
1t is only within the last few years
that any zinc has been produced in
California, but in 1911 two mines, one
( in Inyo county and the other in San
/ Bernardino county, produced about 2.
100000 poudns. Shipments of about
/ the same quantity have been contin
ued in 1912.

METROPOLITAN ORCHESTRA
GIVES PLEASING CONCERT

The concert by the Metropolitan
Ladies' orchestra at Broadway last
night was very pleasing and successful
IN every respect. The ensemble was
very good, both in tone and execu-
ton, but perhaps il was in the solos
that aroused the greatest enthusiasm
in the audience. Mr.. Conrad's cornet
work was very artistic and pleasing
Miss Cox satisfied the most critical
with her violin solo, Fantasia Pas
s,onate" by Vieuxtemps. AS an en-
core sha played "Old Black Joe" with
out accompaniment. Miss Cox is an
artist, and the audience could well
have listened a whole sevening to her
playing. Besideg there were readings
by Miss Hart, a cello solo by Miss
Woolman, and a string quartet. The
individuals in the company are very
talented and give an evenings enter
tainment which is profitable and of a
high grade.
The next entertainment on the
course is a lecture by Dr. Writ Low
Tier Feb. 10. Mr.. Conrad said last
night that he considers Mr.. Lowther
one of the most eloquent lecturers of
the Lyceum bureau. He lectured this
summer on one Of the first chautauqua
platforms in the country, at Winona
lake, Ind. The course has been above
the average and with the two conclud-
ing entertainments, will prove one OF
the best that has come to Rock Island

COLD AND silver
OUTPUT INCREASE
CALIFORNIA; 1,181 Mines Show
Larger Production Than in
1911.

California shows an increase in
output of both gold and silver in 1912
compared with 1911, according to pre-
liminary figures by Charles G. Yale,
of the United States geological sur
vey. The difference is not very mark
ed but is sufficient to show that the
precious metal output of the state is
advancing somewhat California re-
tains first rank in gold output, regain
ed from Colorado in 1911. The mine
figures of the survey for 1911 were
gold valued at SIS, 73S,9OS and 1870, 445
ounces of silver, while estimates for
1912 indicate an output of gold valued
at s19,95O,O0O and 100000 ounces of
silver Moreover, it is highly probable
that when complete detailed returns
are available, the 1912 figures will be
somewhat enhanced.

Mortality In War.

War. called by the great Erasmus "the malndy of princes" has had so many victims we will never be able to reckon them up. However. it is com puted that up to the middle of the nineteenth century no fewer than 8.SGO. 100000 men perished on the field of battle. In all probability the estimate Is under rather than over the mark.
