LAYER OF OIL FOUND in
HUMBOLDT RIVER NEAR ELKC

While prospecting a little along the
bank of the river near Carlin a few
days ago an Elko nan ran across a
thick and heavy layer of oil which
lay across the waters of the Hum
boldt. Upon inquiry he learned that
this was a frequent discovery by peo-
pie walking in that vicinity. He be-
lieves that it is an indication favor
able to oil development in that To-
cality, but old residents of the town
say that it is the result of vegetable
oil which is squeezed out of the plants
nearby by the feet of passing cattle
But that raises another query. Where
do they get the plants in the middle
of winter Independent.

One morning last week, when Mr.

where some one had gone through
one of the windows and tramped
around the left wing of the basement,
with their muddy shoes. They were
apparently looking for something to
eat, but were fooled, because all the

were locked. This is the second
