For Evening Dresses.

A GREAT deal of gold and silver en-
@N broidery executed on cobwebby
backgrounds or done in cut-out effects
constitutes by far the bulk Of garniture
for evening dresses. There are crystal
fringes and narrow fur landings that
give just the requisite finish to the
elegant gown. Light laces are used for
dance frocks and are combined with
satins of a brocaded character. or with
silver or gold tissue. There is also an
inclination to combine laces with sill
yer embroidered tulles and other nets.

COMSTOCK MINE
WEEKLY REPORT

Great interest is conferred in the
Lining operations at the northend
Of the Comstock lode, where there
is greater activity at the present
time in the way of development and
exploration work than for many
years. The extensive area Of ground
that has been opened up for pros
pecting contains possibilities hat
are fully realized by the manage
rIents, Ind as rapidly as possible,
the territory is being proved up. The
Union, Mexican and Sierra Nevada
wards of a half million dollars from
slopes developed on the 24O0 and
$500 levels, and this alone furnishes
the incentive to push forward into
other sections no less promising.
This holds true especially of the
Union, Mexican and Sierra Nevada
mines, and a statement made this
pointed out the excellent conditions
thai prevail therein, and the imme-
date prospects available. The work
TO date in these three mines points
definitely to the fact that important
ore showings are not improbable as
work proceeds further on the pre-
sent levels, and at still greater
depth.
Every effort is therefore being
directed at the 1900 level drain
age, and work is now being done
to increase the efficiency of the
new pumps. The stave drain pine
IS also to be installed on the 27O0
level to catch up the water making
Cn the level to prevent it drop
ping back below the level, when
the e pump has been started. 1t
is taking time to provide for all
possible contingencies that might
arise, but when these are completed,
the actual drainage is expected to
be accomplished without difficulty.
What applies to the Union, Mexi-
can and Sierra Nevada, is also
strictly true of the Ophir and Con.
Virginia, where the prospecting
work on the 200 level shows a
very large mineralized zone, but
as yet no ore development Of note.
These companies are also DESTROYS
of reaching greater depth, but in
the meantime are opening up a
large area of virgin ground on the

Demand Appraisal of Estate

Attorney General George Trart-
cher today filed a petition for the
appointment of appraisers to fix the
value of the estate in Nevada of the
late Henry Miller, California and
Nevada land and cattle baron who
died recently in San Francisco. The
state is about to attempt to collect
the inheritance tax due from the
estate and the ap~praisement asked
is to be used to fix the amount of
the tax. Miller's holdings in Ne
vada are held under a corporation
known as the Pacific Livestock COM
pany. The value of these holdings
is roughly estimated at $4,000, O0O
and the tax due the state is a large
amount. Attorney General Thatcher
states that he anticipates a bitter
legal battle before the tax is col.
lected.
