NEVADA OPALS
EQUAL THE BEST
IN THE WORLD
PRECIOUS STONES ARE WIDELY
DISTRIBUTED AND OF
VARIOUS KINDS.

Gems and precious stones We're
produced in the United States in
1912 to the value of $3l9,722, accord
ing to Douglas B. Sterrett Of the
United States geological survey. The
kinds Of precious stones found in
the United States are many, ranging
from diamonds of fine quality to
low grade stones such as agates,
but as is seen from the total value
of the output there are no really
large operations.
The principal gem mineral found
in the United States during 1912
was Montana sapphire, Of which
there was large output for use
both as gems and in mechanical
applications. The greater part of
the gem sapphires came from the
mines in Fergus county, where they
occur in a rock matrix. The major
ity Of these stones have the true
sapphire blue color The bulk of the
sapphire for mechanical use camc
from the placer deposits in Granite
and Deer Lodge counties and con
sists of yaricolored stones.
The development Of the opal de-
posits Of Humboldt county, New. was
attended with mich succass and a
quantity Of magnificent gem material
was obtained The dark translucent
mineral with a variety of rich col
ors, The deposits, promise to sup.
/ ply a gem equal to if not superior in
beauty to the opal from Australia.
Prospecting and mining at the EN-
erald mine in North Carolina were
attended with only partial success
Two pockets or deposits Of emerald
were removed during the year; other
developments consisted mainly of ex-
ploratory work which was continued
into 1913.
The tourmaline output in southern
California was small, but some mag
nificent specimen crystals we're OBJ
tanned Especially fine gem crystals
of kunzite We're found and brought
good prices. The production of tur-
quoise was very small compared with

city in broad daylight. Detectives
have secured the country from end to

have been displayed in moving pic
ture houses in every city and town
of the land, but as yet not the slight

been obtained. Whether she was
killed or kidnapped is still a question.

The above features are familiar to
everybody in Mt. Vernon. Without
being labeled they are readily recog-
nized as being those of Ed. L. Parker,
popularity known as "Piney" Parker,
whose lifetime spent in Mt. Vernon
has made him a well-known figure in
the community. Ed. has been in the
shoe business so long that there
would. be an "aching void" if he were
to drop out of it, But he has no
such dire contemplation. 1t is true
that he is a candidate for city audi
tor, but he has capacity enough to
fill the Office all right and not neglect
his BUSINESS. Not only does Ed.
stand we'll in the business world that
is encompassed by Mt. Vernon, but
his reputation has gone forth to the
outside world, and he has for some
time been holding the responsible po-
sition of secretary of the state shoe
dealers association.
Ed. has ample ability for the filling
of the office of city auditor for which
he Is candidate at the coming elec.
