TREATY WITH PANAMA
 SUBMITTED FOR APPROVAL

PANAMA, Sept, ?. An important treaty, by the terms of which the United States gains control of the waters of the harOors Ji ( lon and Ancon, togeti-er with certain athcr valuable rights, Was signel here to lay by William Jennings Price, the Amerl- esn minister, and Ernesto T. Lefevre, Pan alna secretary of foreign relations.
 The instrument 1eIlacc- what has been known as the Davis agreement of June Is, tGG!. ill which the boundaries cf the canal vcna were tentatively fortified with the un- derstanding that a future formal treaty .oLlu TX tEem permanently. It a.so &ll- ultias the Panama camel treaty Of No- vember Is, 1903, under winch the canal zone vas acquired from Panama.
 Panama, by the provisions of the con Ycntion.. will for the first time ba placed Tn direc! iny,ic&l connection with the rena.n- der of the country. Hitherto the capital has been cut of by the canal zone, which those wishing to reach other parts of the republic had to traverse. 4 large tract of fertile land called Las Sabanas," or the Savannahs was ceded to Panama. In thls territory are located many of the handsome country estates of wealthy Pananons.
 The United States acquires absolute con trol over all the waters of Colon and Ancon harbors, and in addition two small islands lying in Ancon harbor, which are to be used for observation and light stations by the coast artillery. One of these islands will be fortified. The site of Battery Han cock, cn the Cclon water front, Is gwen to the United States, as IS also control ot all the piers at the north entrance ot the canal, costing approximately S2,5oO,Oo0.
 It Is specially stipulated in this treaty that no railway shall be built across the "Sabanas' without the consent of the Unit ed States and that the United States may retake and occupy portion or all of these lands if needed for the protection and de fense of the canal or ts approaches.
 The treaty will now be sent to the Wash ngton and Panama senates for ratification

THE NEW PONTiFF

Giacone Della Chiesa, elected pope re cently by the sacred college in succession to Plus X, who died August 20, was ere ated cardinal May 9, 1914. He was archbishop of Bologna, Italy. He was born at Pegli, in the diocese of Genoa, November 21, 1854, and was ordained a priest De cember 21, 1878. The choice fell on car dinal of Italian birth, as was expected from tradition and also from the disturbed con ditions in Europe.
 It was at the age of 2+ that the new pope was ordained in the priesthood. He soon attracted the attention of Cardinal Rampolle, later secretary of state for Pope Leo XIII When Cardinal Rampolla was made nuncio to Madrid he took Mohsignor Della Chiesa with him as secretary of nun ciature. On Cardinal Rampolla's return to Rome to become secretary of state for the Vatican Monsignor Della Chiesa entered the secretariat of state as one of the "nlnu- tamil" or minor officials until 1901, when he was appointed substitute of the secre- tariat and also of the cipher.
 As secretary to the secretary of state, Cardinal Della Chiesa was brought into no table prominence throughout the Catholic world, but his position was not at that time of cardinalist rank On the accession of Pope Plus K, Monsignor Della Chiesa con tinued in the secretarat until December 16, 1907, when the pope gave him noted pro- motion to the position of archbishop of the important see of Bologna.
 For seven years he administered the see of Bologna with notable success, until in May last Pope Plus X. named him among thirteen members of the hierarchy to re- ceive the red hat He served as secretary of the nunciature in Spain from 1883 to 1887.

GRADE ore IN
M|zPAH PROPERTY

In the long tunnel which the Mig
pah Consolidated Copper and Gold
Mining company has been driving to
prospect it's holding in the Mizpah
district, the face is now in 1870
feet from the portal. The last work
has beer done in a soft formation
of porhpyry mt rhyolite which show
much iron stain. While it is shoot
ground it is necessary to timber the
tunnel and lag it tight as the ground
Stacks when exposed to the air. Cop
per stains are also noticeable in the
face of the tunnel now under the sur
face of the Nevada Northern claim
which contains a strong ledge of high
grade D D ore on which a shaft
has been sunk nearly 100 feet. =
Some prospecting was done this
winter on the Benny Straight ledge
which was cut by the tunnel some
months ago. A drift was driven eigh'
teen feet to the north proving up
a shipping streak of ore that aver
ages close to a foot in width and
which carries good gold values in ad-
dition to copper, as has been learned
by panning tests. Samples of this
ledge taken when it was first struck
in the tunnel we're assayed and found
to run from $50 to SOS.
The Mizpah Consolidated stock is
controlled by New Jersey and other
eastern capital but a considerable
amount of it is held by Nevada North
ern railway officials and employees.
Under superintendent Grow the con-
siderable amount of money which has
been put into development work has
been expended legitimately and the
property holds forth promises of prov
ing very valuable when further work

ing of the assessment. Excerpts
from the letter follow:
''Inasmuch as the holdings of the
corporation are such that with the
proper development work and the
economical handling of the large
tonnage of low grade ore known to
exist within the boundaries of the
company's holdings, the property can
he placed upon a paying basis and
an active campaign of development
work can be inaugurated. 1t is the
opinion of mining men who are IA
miliar with this section of the dis
trict that such development will
bring about favorable results.
when it is considered hat this
property has produced the sum OF
$500, 900, under the most adverse
circumstances and at a time when
the costs of mining and t~ransporta'
ton we're far in excess of what they
are at the present ume, the potential
possibilities are far ahead of many
other properties in the district which
are obliged to mine at great depth
in order to obtain satisfactory re-
suits"

& Il. APPLICATION

Bearing the Endorsement of the Ne
vada railroad commission, the appli-
cation of the Bullfrog and Goldfeld
and the Las Vegas and Tonopah rail-
roads for a consolidation of their
lines between Beatty and Goldfield
has been submitted to the officials OF
the interstate commerce commission
in Washington, d. c., according to
advices obtained from a reliable
quarter. 1t is understood that rep
resentatives of the two railroads in
volved are urging action upon the
application and hope to obtain a
ruling at an early date.
Notwithstanding the fact that 1t
could not issue an enforcible order
in the premises, the application was
first presented by the railroads to
the Nevada railroad commission and
a hearing was held in Carson City
early last month. after going thor
oughly into the data submitted in
support of the proposed ~consolida-
ton, the commission approved it and
subsequently the application was
filed with the national commission in
Washington. Action by the latter
body on the application is necessary,
as it involves interstate traffic.

The older rocks of Long Island
consist of the granite floor, which
comes to the surface near East river
and He'll Gate, and clays and sands of
Cretaceous age, which have been

along the north shore but to rise into
mounds of considerable height under
the SURGICAL deposits of a portion
of the ~west-central part of the is
land.
The geologic history of Long Is
land is the story of a vast lapse OF
time. but many of it's details are indi-
Gated by striking evidence in the rela-
lions of a great variety of deposits
and diversity of configuration. The
story as read in this area is also APP
plicable to other portions of the At

of the investigation is also treated
i'm Mr.. Fuller's report. Glacial de-
posits, both those constituting M
aines and those due to glacial waters,
are SO we'll exhibited on Long Island
that teachers of geology and others
interester in the science can find here
exceptionally good illustrations in
great variety. To provide for this
demand a special table is included
giving a list of principal points OF
geologic interest, with brief notes on
instructive features.
The report includes a detailed ge"
ologic map and a topographic map OF
the entire island on a scale of about
2 miles to the inch, together with
many special maps and other illus
trations. To facilitate reference to
the geologic map, it is divided into
rectangles designated from west to
