CALIFORNIA RUBELLITES. 



We have just received from a new locality in California some remark- 

 able specimens of Rubellite. The well defined, columnar crystals, 

 many of them from one to two inches long and showing distinct ter- 

 minations, occur principally in radiated aggregates imbedded in a 

 Lepidolite rock. These specimens are exquisitely beautiful, all of them 

 presenting the same uniform shade of rose-pink in a pale lilac setting 

 of Lepidolite, forming a combination of colors rarely equalled. 



NEW MEXICO MINERALS. 



From our collector in the Organ Mountains we have just received 

 eight boxes of minerals, the result of several weeks work at the 

 Wulfenite locality. 



Among the finer specimens of this shipment are several large, beau- 

 tiful Aragonites and a new type of Wulfenite, brownish yellow in color, 

 occurring in crystals of from one to three inches in diameter with 

 perfect terminating edges. Also some beautiful, transparent yellow 

 Wulfenites with perfect terminations. 



Among other recent arrivals are Colemanites ; translucent doubly 

 terminated Van adinites; Guanajuato minerals, including Calcites, Poly- 

 basites, Argentites and other silver minerals. A fine lot of precious 

 Opals in the matrix. From Arkansas, crystallized Eudialyte, Perofskite 

 in the rock ; Manganopectolite and fine crystals of Pseudoleucite. 



A large and fine assortment of Diaspores and Margarites. 



Polished sections of Jasperized Wood from Arizona. Bare and inter- 

 esting crystallized Gold on Galenite from Colorado. Cobaltite, Linnse- 

 ite, Stannite, Euchroite, Libethenite and many others. 



We shall be glad to send any of the above on approval to those 

 wishing to see them. %
