FOUR HUNDRED MILLION
FROM THE COMSTOCK

The famous Comstock lode of Ne
vada is a great tissue vein, four
miles long, along a line of faulting
in the Tertiary eruptive rocks of the
Virginia range. 1t crops out on the
east side of Mount Davidson. The
mountain range but not the summit
may be seen in clear weather from
Reno by looking up the open val
ley to the southeast The ore,
which is of high grade, carries sill
Yer and gold in quartz. In the old
days it occurred t%ypically in great
bodies called bonanzaS. The district
was noted for the large scale on
which everything connected with the
mining, including the speculation,
was carried on. The size of the old
dumps and the kind of machinery
employed show that great things
were done here. About $500, 900
gold and silver in the ratio, by value,
of two of gold to three of silver. has
been taken out of the Comstock.
Considerable ore is still being mined
but the great bonanzas have all been
worked out. Overland Guide Book,

EXTRA DIVIDEND OF
PRINCE CONSOLIDA ED

Prince Consolidated officials yes
terday announced an extra dividend
Of 21, cents a share. This calls for
s25 900, and will be paid IN Aug. 2
to stockholders of record fully 20.
1t will make nearly $4,000 paid ont
by the Prince this year. Directors
of the company said yesterday that
undoubtedly the regular quarterly di-
vidends of 2R cents will be main
tanned for some time, as the COM
pany recently has been making
monthly profits of from 100000 to
1000. Before the rise in the
price of lead the profits were S12,-
500 to $4,000 a month.
The Prince shipments the past
week totaled 5S carloads, or ap-
proximately 1900 tons. This is
compared with 81 cars the previous
week, 1T is understood thai re-
Gently a carload of ore from the new

CHARLES LARSON WINS
BIG OVERLAND AUTO

Charles Larson, a local miner, who
has been engaged in the business OF
prospecting for many years in a vain
search for gold, awOke yesterday
morning and found that his dreams
had come true. He was the proud
possessor of an Overland automobile
and was soon showing his cronies a
view of thesurrounding country from
an excellent point of vantage on the
soft cushions. Larson had go tickets
on the automobile which was given
away by eight local business men.
The rest of the town had approx
mately $4,000. Larson has one
chance in $3.50 of winning the ma
chine and won it. Larson resides
at 907 East Crook when he is at
home, but he can better be located
by a streak of dust on the horizon
with the engine chugging to the tune
of ''This is the Life" That Larson
is one of the most popular men in
town is attested by the breezing of
his Overland over the main streets
of the camp with about eight men
dangling their legs over the sides of
the car.

MUNICIPAL RAILWAY
ENJ0|MED BY COURT
UNITED COMPANY GETS BUSY
WHEN MAYOR VETOES NEW
ORDINANCE

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, July Z
A permanent injunction was grant
ed yesterday by Judge Sturtevant of
the superior court against the oper-
alton of two lines of the municipal
railway company. 1t was sought by
the United railroad after the settle
ment of a disagreement with the
city. approved by the supervisors,
was upset by Mayor Rolph's veto of
an ordinance permitting the United
company to run a new line to the
exposition grounds.
The injunction is directed against
lines C and d, the latter running to
the exposition grounds. An average
of so cars a day are operated and
the June receipts were $4,000.
When the municipal company be-
gan operation direct to the expo ST
ton the United c~ontended that it
competed seriously with its lines.
none of which ran directly from the
ferry to the exposition. AS a com
promise the United agreed not to
take the case to court if the city
granted it permission to build n
new line to the exposition. The su-
pervisors passed the ordinance and
ROlnh vetoed it.

HOW SANDSTONES DIFFER

The products of rock decomposi-
ton may be reconsolidated either by
great pressure or by the injection
of cementing materials, or by both.
Thus sands are formed into sand
stone, clays become shales and cal
careous deposits yield limestone.
Aside from their cementing mater
ials, sandstones differ in composition
exactly as did the sands of which
they are composed. Sandstone, ac-
cording to the United States geolo-
gical survey, may be nearly pure
quartz, or quartz and feldspar, or
quartz, feldspar and mica and it may
vary in texture from the fine to the
coarse. Some sandstone is so coarse
that it will hold six quarts of water
to the cubic foot, and underground
deposits of such sandstone form ex-
cellent reservoirs, which may yield
a never failing supply of water. An
arkose sandstone from the quick
silver region of California, made up
of granite deritus, was found to
contain quartz, Orthoclase, oligo-
clase. biotite, m%uscovite, hornblende.
%titanite, rutile, tourmaI1ne and apa-
tite. In short, all the rock form
ing minerals which car in any way
survive the destruction or grinding
up of a rock may be found in sands,
and therefore in sandstones.

GOLD DEPOSITS IN ALASKA

Though it is the purpose of the
United States geological survey to
extend it's Investigations to all parts
of Alaska, it simetimes happens
that it is impossible to do geologi-
cal work in advance of actual miner
al discoveries by the prcspector. The
survey attempts to follow up the re-
ported new discoveries of valuable
minerals by surveys and investiga-
lions as soon as means permit. A
report on work inspired by the dis
covery of gold in the Innoko dis
trict in 1906 has been issued by
the survey as bulletin SIS and is
entitled "The Iditarod-Ruby Re-
gion, Alaska" by H. M. Eakin.
The investigation seems to have
developed the fact that geological
conditions favorable to the occur
renee of auriferous deposits are
repeated in many places through
this part of Alaska, a fact hat au-
gurs well for the future of the min
ing industry in this region, not
withstanding the fact that the
workable gold placers thus far de-
yeloped are limited to comparatively
few small areas.

GEORGE W|NGF|ElD
BACK FROM DENVER

George Wingfield, banker, mining
property developer and breeder of
thoroughbred horses, returned yes
terday from several days stay in Den
yer, to which city he went OF bust
ness and pleasure bent, says the Reno
Journal.
Mr.. Wingfield has a stable of fast
horses in the Denver race track, of
which Starr-Shooter and Washoe
Belle have proved themselves capabl,
of getting in the money with a regu-
larity that is pleasing to a man who
is a breeder, not only for racing pur-
poses, but to improve the stock OF
carriage, riding and driving horses in
Nevada, Colorado and California.
Nj. Wingfield is anxious to inter
est Nevada ranchers in the impr we
ment of equine stock, and to this end
has taken an active part in plans for
the coming racing meet, which opens
in this city on July IL.
He states hat the men with
strings of horses at Denver are deep
ly interested in the Reno meet and
are looking forward with pleasure
to the summer campaign in this state
and in California.
The attendance at the Denver meet
has been encouraging, he says, and
the class of horses the Reno
meeting of success, because most of
the speedy runner will be shipped
to this city when the Denver meet
closes.
The success of Star Shooter and
Washoe Belle in their several starts
was a keen pleasure to Mr.. Wing
field. as he has followed their prog
ress from their colt days with n keen
eye to perfection of form and utility
as breeders.
Attendance has been fully up to
expectations at Denver, and interest
in the sport, which is conducted
without the Objectionable feature OF
bookmaking, is keen, Mr.. Wingfield
states.
