SOME ORE DEPOSITS YOUNG
Newly Formed Veins Have Produced
Such Famous Mining Camps a.
GoIdffeld and Tonopah.

Ore deposits ranging in age from the
time when the most complex living
thing on the earth was q crablike crea-
ture down to the time when mammals
were highly developed have been found
in this country. Among the younger
deposits is group known to geolo-
gists as the late tertiary veins.
These veins are widely distributed
and are of particular interest not only
because they have given rise to famous
mining camps such as Tonopah, Gold
field and Comstock, but because, owing
to their comparative youth, the surface
on which they crop out is not greatly
below that whoch existed at the time
Of their origin. Thus by considering
the surface conditions and by labora-
tory experiments the phenomena they
present can be interpreted more accu-
rately than those OF older deposits
which are at greater depths and are
more deeply cut by erosion.
Many of the late tertiary veins in
this country, all inclosed in lava rocks
or closely associated with them, are
found in Nevada.

The boy was interested in everything
that pertained to Bowser. Recently
there has been considerable agitation
to require the dog owners to pay the
city license fee. Announcement was
made that the police would soon be-
gin to kill all unlicensed dogs. So
there was a rush to the city clerks Of
fee to get licenses.

little fellow told his mother, as he
ran into his home.

Bowser?"

DID HE HELP INVENT
SUBMARINE DESTROYER?

If we are to believe very recent re-
ports, the submarine problem is not
insoluble; in fact, it has just about
been. solved. American scientists and
men Of inventive genius have been
exerting themselves for some time to
evolve some method by which the king
of war machines could be put out of
business, and it appears that that time
is at hand. AS to the nature of the
new submarine device, however, it
cannot now be divulged.
Of those who are known to have
taken vital interest in the matter,
the Bell Telephone Co. is prominent,
and it is said turned over~the use of
their laboratories for the furthering
of the work.
Mr.. Clarence Houck, nephew Of Mrs.
E. R. Root Of Medina, is assistant su-
perintendent of the Bell Co., and was
a guest Of his aunt and family on
Thursday of last week. Mr.. Hawck is
said to have been very reticent with
reference to his company's connection
with the new discovery, but his many
friends in Medina, where he formerly
resided, and who know Of his own
native ability as an inventor, will won
der If later it will not appear that the
epoch-marking war instrument was
party a product Of his own genius.
