After arriving in San Francisco in

came interested in the Comstock

coived the idea of an immense tun-
! rel to develop the mine. But he
was poor, and only through his in
dOmitabIc will was he able to fin,
ance the project. After agreeing and
signing contracts to meet the cost,
tie owners of the lode changed their
minds. leaving SutrO to proceed
alone. He at last appealed to the
miners themselves who raised $780,
900 by pledges, and Oct. 10, 1869
actual work was begun. Such deter.
nlination drew financiers, and at
last in 1873, through the vision, con-
structive genius and perseverance Of

MUSIC MOST POPULAR
BROADCAST FEATURE
Programs Held Best Because They
Can Be Enjoyed with
Other Activities.

Music is the most popular feature
of broadcasting. not necessarily be-
cause it is liked the most, but because
it is the most practical for the busy
man or woman. Music can be alb
sorbed while one is indulging in other
activities.
The same cannot be said for a lee
ture or anything that calls for UNI
divided attention on the part of the
listener. Radio has asked the busy
world to take still more time for
leisure. and this has been a difficult
demand to meet.
1t would be almost impossible were
1t not for the popularity Of radioed
music. Here the radioist can make
his ether entertainment fit in to the
usual order of things and in the same
confines of time. He can read, perhaps
play cards, and listen at the same
time, occasionally paying stricter at
tention to the broadcasting when
something exceptional comes through,
