Show MINES AND MINING USE OF AUTOMOBILE IN MINING CAMPS transportation is one of the important factors in mining, the introduction of the automobile in suggested, uys the Enginee' ing and Mining Jour-ua- L For traveling over high altitudes m Quick time and safety, it has been ihown recently by experiments in Colorado that the automobile, driven through the mountainous regions, covered a distance of 175 miles at a little less than twenty miles an hour. Now an attempt is being made to prove the superiority of the automobile for traversing the great desert of Death valley, California, which is 167 miles long, and where for many years the mule has been considered practically the only means of locomotion. The pacific Coast Borax company is using the novelty at its mines. At present it takes a twrenty-mul- e train, hauling twenty tons of crude borax, twenty-fohours to travel only eighteen miles. The automobile train, having power equivalent to thirty mule teams, will carry five times the quantity and run a distance of 100 miles in twenty-fou- r hours. Power for the automobile train will be supplied by a triple cylinder gasoline engine, electric generator, operating a and weighing in all only six tons. There will be at least seven or eight cars to a train, and eich car will be equipped with an electric motor. The whole train will be under complete control of the motorman in the cab of the engine, which is also furnished with an air compressor to operate the brakes on each car.

Tester-da- y Mr. Wilson expressed himself as being much pleased with the showings of the mine and stated that he anticipated more important disclosures in a short time. The strike recently recorded in the mine is in an upraise from the 400-folevel. There are two feet of high-graore in a five-fovein.

GOLDFIELD AUTOMOBILES SUCCESSFULLY USED IN MINING CAMPS. New Discovery in the California Rich Ore Found in Mine Abandoned By A. W. McCune. A. V. Turner, a mining engineei, has recently returned from tile new il cimp, where he made a tuudy of the geology of the disirnt. It in very interesting to those who are familiar with mineral lornia'ions. The resuit of his examinations is as follows: "The oldest rocks of the district are the black silicious schists or slates to be observed on the west slope of Columbia hill. These are very likely carboniferous or older. Intruded into these schists is a coarse granitic rock, composed essentially of quartz and feldspar. In a recent article Mr. J. C. Ralston calls this rock Alasklte and considers it Intrusive in the and that it had a profound influence on the mineralization of the district The observations by myself, however, suggest that this granite is older than the and that In consequence it had no effect whatever qn the mineralization of the' disGolil-ficl- lode-por-ph- lode-porphy- 11.

Anyhow, Josephine'z ambitions grew to a very sizable size. She startled her mother by saying she wanted to go to college. By this time she had gone from a scissors factory to a brush factory, but the work there was little more to her taste. Losing even that place was the last straw. One fine day she read In a newspaper the story of a girl who had cut off her hair, dressed herself as a boy and left home. There Josephine found the solution to all her own problems.
