Several weeks ago the San Francisco
Stock Exchange Published an extended
account of the result of a test OF the
Frue concentration on the black gold
sands of Oregon, brought about by
General George 5. Dodge, John Lam
ders and j. III. eager, Secretary to
Flood & O'Brien. That experiment was
so successful in reducing these sands
a subject that has occupied the atten-
ton of mining men for twenty years
or more-that the above named gen
tlemen resolved to send the machines
To their claim in Coos county, Oregon,
and 20 to the expense OF q months
trial. The result has proved more than
satisfactory. They sent seven OF the
machines to the ground and set item
up. The machines began their work
June 18th and ran only in the day
time. They gathered the concentra
tions July Goth, and the result was 20
tons of concentrations which have
yielded Sl2, 200 in gold, sol fine. or S6lO
per ION. The whole o Of producing
this result was s ,300. The average
assay of the sand run through the ma
chimes was Sl2 per ton. Therefore this
is equal to a reduction of u thousand
tons of the original sand. The taiiings
have not shown a trace. The Black
Sand Company are so pleased with the
result that they are now working their
machines night and day and are hav-
ing thirteen additional machines built,
which, when running. as they will be
in u few weeks, will give the company
a product of about $50, 900 a month at a
cost of $1,000. This promises o open
up a new gold producing industry
which will give value to property on
the whole Northern Coast, hitherto
supposed valueless because Of the Diff
Guilty of separating the precious metal
from the sands.

are in the Episcopal Church, which
owns so much property that it can at
ford to pay good salaries. The whole

about sixty. There are scores of COM
