GREAT GOLD PRODUCERS


The precious metal deposits at
Tonopah, New, were discovered in
1900 when the mining industry gen.
orally in Nevada has sunk to a very
low level The discovery greatly stim-
ulated prospecting and led to the re-
vival of mining throughout the state
The district has produced silver and
gold { o the total value of more
than $4,000, 900 from veins in ter
tiary volcanic rocks.
The discovery of gold at Goldfeld
in 1902 was a direct outcome of the
development at Tonopah. The de-
posts here also occur in tertiary vol
canic rocks. but in form an char
acter they are entirely different from
the Tonopah veins. The total pro-
duction from Goldfield to the end of
1913 was over $4,000, 900 in gold
and silver. OF late years consid-
cradle copper has been recovered
from the concentrates of the Gold
field mills.-U. S. Geological Survey

UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA
WILL OPEN AUGUST 30

When the University of Nevada
opens on Aug. 80, the indications are
that it will begin it's prosperous year.
Applications for admission have been
received universally from the high
schools of the state, and where last
year there were two freshmen from
a. community, this year there have
been applications from IL, and in
many cases the entire graduating
classes from the local high schools
are entering the university this fall.
The best place to educate young
men and women of a state is in the
university of that state. All the
more progressive states are finding
this out and the tendency of the uni
versities is to shape their courses so
as to respond to the particular edu-
cational needs of their people in
the highest possible degree.
This is essentially true in Nevada
where our conditions are so different
from what they are in all other
states. The graduates of other uni
,versities, coming to Nevada, find
themselves in many respects far less
fitted to cope with the professional,
industrial and economic demands
here than our own university grad
yates.

PECULIAR GEOLOGY
OF GRAND CANYON

Ever since Powell's daring boat
trip down the Colorado in 1863
biologists have known that tha;
walls of the Grand Canyon display
n of the most remarkable and i'm
structive geologic sections in the
world. At first glance the impress
sive feature of that section is the
great thickness of nearly horizontal
strata through which the river has
sunk its bed, strata ranging in age
from carboniferous at the top on
the brink of the chasm, to cam
brian at the base.
The United States geological
survey has published as bulletin $40
a report on the geology of the shin
int quadrangle, the Grand Canyon
the bulletin contains considerable
lithologic and stratigraphic mater
ial that will scarcely interest those
who are not biologists, DR. Noble has
very properly remembers that the
people as a whole have unusual
claims to consideration in any publ
cation dealing with the Grand Can
yon, and has skillfully supplied as
a sitting to this NOR strictly scien-
tific work much vivid description
all those who take more than a tran
silent interest in what they see to
understand n of the most impress
sive and significant of the inani-
mate works of nature.
BY far the most interesting scenic
ground in the quadrangle is Powell
plateau, on the north side of the
canyon. To the geologist the views
from this plateau are encyclopedias.
The rocks that are visible represent
in turn nearly every geologic age,
and the sequence of order of de-
position of each series Of beds Is
apparent at a glance. Every great
gelocic process is illustrated. Per-
haps the fost impressive record of all
is that of uplift and erosion. This
record, registered in what the geolo-
gist terms "unconformities" or
breaks in the regular and continuous
process of sedimentary accumulation
shows that for vast periods rocks. fn-
stead of being formed, were being
washed away by rain, streams, and
waves leaving a worn surface which
later sank beneath the sea and re-
ceived new sediments. The later
periods of geologic history are re-
corded in the removal by erosion
of vast thicknesses of strata and the
production of the surface of the re-
gion in it's present aspect. The pant
Drama is probably the most complete
geologic revelation in the world.

Unique Divorce Suit

A novel case, in which the plain
tiff, an unmarried man. asks a de-
cree of divorce from his common law
wife, is being tried before the dis
trict court of Washoe county. The
action is sought by Pierre Couste, a
Los Angeles commission merchant.
He began living with the woman
from whom he now desires legal
separation in 1902 and by her is
the father of a 12-year-Old child.
This is the first case of it's kind
ever tried in Washoe county. He
asks the divorce or the ground of
cruelty. Common law marriages
are recognized as valid in Nevada,
and a legal decree of divorce is re-
quired to exempt a person from
prosecution on a charge of bigamy
should a venture be made on the
matrimonial sea again without OBJ
tanning a legal separation.

used a piece of iron as a weapon.

left Tonopah recently after losing to
frankie Malone of Oakland on a

Moore, it was understood, had gone

THE PORT OF PROFIT

Lincoln used to tell a story
of a Mississippi river steam
boat that had a f%our-foot
boiler and a seven-foot wills
tie. Every time the boat
blew it's whistle it stopped.
His steamboat was great
on attention getting but poor
on progress.
The advertising steamboat
has lost interest in the mere
noise of whistles. It's own
ers have ceased to measure
results by sound. They are
insisting that quick transit
to the port of profit is to be
their test of efficiency.
And so advertisers are
turning to newspapers for
their voyage to the desired
harbor.
