Occidental sold down to 13c, where it closed the day. NOrcross was stronger, selling up to #1 20, and Chollar advanced to 5lc. On the Bond Exchange Spring Valley rose to $98 25 bid. NOTES. H. M. Gorham, superintendent of the Chollar, Potosi and Crown Point mines, has returned to the Comstock. Samuel L. Jones is expected to arrive here from Gold Hill In a few days. The delinquent assessment sale of the Golden Eagle Mining Company has been postponed until April 24. An assessment of 10 cents per share has been { levied by the Owens River and Big Pine Canal Company, delinquent April 6. The official letter from the West Consolidated Virginia and California mine for the past week says that the west erosscut run from & point 320 feet north of the 1100-level station has been ex- tended twelve feet, and is now in a total distance of 1474 feet; the face is in hard porphyry, carrying seams 0f'quartz. The flow of hot water and tem- Dperature are the same when last reported. The Odin Gold and Silver Mining Company of Nevada County has levied an assessment of 4 cents per share, delinquent April 26; the North Truckee Drain Dfich Company of Reno ons of $8 | per share, delinguent April 19, and the Union Ditch Company of Reno one of 25 cents per share, delin- | quent April 18. | . Private advices speak of improvement on the 1650-foot level of the Consolidated Californis and Virginia mine, not only in the north prospecting region but in some of the openings on_the south. ‘There are rumors in quiet circuiation about an im- provement on the 1465-foot level of the Ophir. The upraise above the intermediate level, thirty feet below the 975 level of the Hale & Norcross, is cutting some good ore. The Engineerinz and Mining Journal reports £526,000 paid in dividends in February by elghteen American mines, and $1,409,077 by thirty-five mines in the first two months of the year. | The Pacific Lighting Company will pay a divi- | dend of 30 cents April 5.

Thomas A. Edison has recently been reading up on argon, the newly discovered gaseous constituent of the atmosphere, and on the experiments of Lord Rayleigh and others abroad. He said yesterday that he intended to do some experimenting himself as soon as he could get around to it. *“That will'probably not be before next summer,” he added, “as I am still very busy with my mining operations. I do not know of any investigation into the nature of argon having been made in this country, but, doubtless, experiments will soon be made all over the world. They will look for argon, and it is quite likely that in looking for it they will find other new elements in the atmosphere. “‘The discovery of argon is a fresh evi- dence of how little we rea]l{l know. Here is a constituent existing in the atmosphere to a considerable percentage, and yet the air has been analyzed and analyzed for more than fifty years without its presence being suspected. The investigators would withdraw the carbonicacid and the oxygen and say that what was left was nitrogen. Somebody finally noticed that this nitro- en possessed slightly different properties Tom pure nitrogen obtained in other ways, and- the result was that argon was discov- ered. “My investigations will be made in con- nection with my incandescent lamp. Phe- nomena take place in the lamps which cannot be explained except on the hypoth- esis of a new element in the atmospheric residuum left in the bulb. Whether argon is responsible for them ornot I don’t know, but I shall try to find out. ‘It seems from _investigations already made that argon is a&)erfectllv inert gas. It has not been found to unite with any- thing, I believe. It is possible, however, that 1t may unite with incandescent car- bon. If it isn’t argon that attacks the fila- ment it may be something else which hasn’t been discovered yet.” 2 Mr. Edison has also been working re- cently on the combination phonograph and kinetoscope. 5 “The only trouble,” he said yesterday, “is a purely mechanical one. The ar of the machinery impairs the image. e in- tend to have a life-gize picture of a man speaking which will show the action while the phonograph supplies the words. Then we can have an orchestra playing, with the music and motions shown by the comblfla- tion. We'll have it pretty soon, t00.”"— New York Sun. THE CALL CALENDAR. MarcH, 1895.
