GEOLOG|ST EXAMINES
ELKO SHALE DEPOSITS
Prof. David White of aovernmen.
Service, In Washington Visits
catiIn Properties

Prof. David White, of the U. s. Geo
logical Survey, was in Elko yester-
day. He came, here at the invitation
OF Engineer Findlater to make, an ex-
animation Of the Catlin shale prop
critics east of town.
In company with Mr.. Findlater, Mr..
Thomas Critchley and a representa-
tive of the Independent, Prof. White
made an auto trip out to the several
claims that have been opened up by
Mr.. Catlin.
Samples were taken of the shale de-
posits. One bed showed a thickness of
2S inches and under this separated by
layer of clay was another shale de-
posit of about foot.
Prof. White gave it as his Judgment
upon his cursory examination that the
country here was part of the Green
River, Wyoming, formation, and did
not belong to the Wasatch range. He
thought the shale deposits might
prove very extensive underlying the
entire valley.
In the opinion of Prof. White these
shales are undoubtedly of organic ori.
gin, most likely of the lower forms of
vegetable life There is also evidence
of early animal life and marks of very
large trees that have become a part
of this shale.

DOG HAD RABIES
q.
2 SAYS UNIVERSITY
Glen chastIne, bitten Saturday, Coco
With His Mother to Reno For
Pasteur Treatment

A telegram received yesterday from
the University of Nevada stated that
the dog whose body was sent down
on No. 10 Saturday unquestionably
was afflicted with the rabies.
Upon receipt of this message Mr..
and Mrs. James Chastine whose four
year-old son was bitten Saturday
morning by the dog at once arranged
TO have the child taken to Reno for
the Pasteur treatment.
The mother left with the boy last
night and should have arrived in Reno
this morning.
Dr. Hendrick, president of the Uni
versity, when here stated that where
the patient was received within "a
hours after being bitten the chances OF
recovery were about 98 out of hun
dred.
It will be 4S hours before the Chas.
tine child can receive his first injec.
ton. DR.. West who gave the first aid
TO the boy and sprayed the wounds
with nitric acid says that there is lit.
tie risk IL the Pasteur treatment is
given within three or four days.
This little brown dog that bit Glen
Chastine as he was playing in front
OF his home at Sixth and Silver streets
to all outward appearance gave no
sign Of madness. He did not froth
at the mouth and did not snarl and
rave. He was lying down resting
quietly In front of the Arcade saloon
when shot by Officer McMurtrey few
moments after biting the child.
The dog seemingly had no owner.
It Is not known II It had bitten other
persons or other dogs. His one mad
act was to bite the Chastine child.
He made a vicious attack on the lit.
tie boy. knocking him down and in.
fiicting two bad wounds on the left
side Of the cheek and throat. One
wound was nearly half-inch deep
and several inchss in length. DR..
West had'bandaged up the whole side
OF the boys throat and face.
Within an hour after the child was
bitten about s o'clock in the morning
officer McMurtrey had rounded up and
shot six unmuzzled dogs. There was
some doubt at the time IL the right
dog had been picked out as the one
biting the child But playmate OF
tho Chastine boy was positive in his
Identification. The report from the
University laboratory would seem to
cilnch the matter.
The officers are now making a Wig.
orous campaign to enforce the order
OF the board Of county commissioner
that all dogs must be muzzled or kill
