RECORDING A LOCATION.
An Attempt TO Post Notices Under
Difficulties.

The duties of a Mining Recorder are
not always smooth and pleasant, as
witness a little incident that happened
to Bob Cavanaugh on Wednesday last.
Bob was called upon in his official ca
pacity to go out in the hills, in the
vicinity of the Mountain Boy mine and
record a recent location. Being pro
vided with travelling accommodations,
he went to the ground in company
with the locators, and on arriving
there he proceeded to fill out his
blanks and post the required notices.
lie was interrupted in his occupation,
before completing his duties, by the
appearance of three big, burly and
suriy miners, armed with revolvers
aud shotguns, who demanded TO know
his business. Bob explained that he
was the Recorder, when one of them
informed him that his statement was
too thin, asserting that he was person.
ally acquainted with Bob Cavanangh,
had voted for him when he run for the
Legislature, and hat he could not
| play Mining Recorder on him. Now,
Bob was perfectly satisfied as to his
own identity, but the sight of those
firearms moved him not to assert it too
emphatically. In fact, he remembered
that he had some business TO attend to
in Eureka, Dade the boys a very pleas
ant good day and departed for town.
The claim was recorded, however, as
viii be seen by notice of the Julia
mine in yesterdays SENTINEL. The
next time he is called upon to go into
the hills and record a claim, he pro-
poses to take some old settler along
with him, to prove that he is the only
genuine, simon.pure and original Bob

He Was Trespassing.

She was a young lady from Duck
water, and had enjoyed her visit to the
Base Range metropolis immensely.
She was pretty and piquant, and one
of our well-known gallants had done
his level best to make it pleasant for
her during her stay. The exciting
cause of the following was an attempt
on his part to snatch a kiss from her
pouting lips. Then she rose in all the
dignity of offended maideuhood and
said: "See here, Mister, jest don't set
lem in too fresh. You've done the
handsome thing in circuses, ice cream
candy and SIGH, but you can't take no
liberties. My Jake, out to the Greek,
he's got a uit-claim deed to the prem
lses, and don't you forget it. You can't
squat on his location, and you'd better
hunt for a quarter-section in some
other direction, where you can get a
better title, and gather your own CROP
The young mar recognized the force OF
her argument and hunted.

HAMBURG.
What Practical Mining Experts
Think of its Resources and
Future.

On Thursday last, Messrs. Potts,
Williams and Robinson, by invi-
tatiUn of Superintendent Powell, visit
ed and examined the Hamburg mine.
As a preliminary, we would remark
that the gentlemen mentioned above
are more competent in our judgment
to pass upon the merits of a location
in Eureka District, possess more
knowledge of the lode, its peculiari-
ties and general formation, than all
the outside experts in the country,
their long experience in the mines CIV
ing them a thorough and practical in
sight as to the lay and trend of the ore
bodies, and the conditions by which
their presence and permanence may
be noted. In a conversation with them,
last evening, they informed US that it
was their unbiased opinion that the
Hamburg was one of the best mines in
the district, and if indications were to
be trusted, would take It's place in the
front rank. They gave their reasons
for this conclusion, and their deduc-
tons were drawn from their obserVa-
tons while visiting the mine. Among
these is the fact that ore can be traced
from the surface to the deepest work
Jugs, a depth of 800 feet; the existence
of a gangue of a character in which all
the large deposits on the vein occur;
the uniformity of the trend. strike and
dip of the ore bodies, preserving the
same peculiarities that distinguish
those in the Consolidated and Rich
mond, and the still more convincing
fact that, according to their estimate,
at least 5000 tons of smelling ore are
in sight at the present time. The ore
body on the go level promises to rival
in extent the largest ever found on the
lode. Its dimensions can be calculat-
ed so far as opened by giving
measurements of the ex plorations.
From where ii was encountered on the
$50 level, a Wine has been sunk 90
feet, all the way in ore, and a drift run
to the south 30 feet. Both the Wine
and cross cut show nothing but ore,
and assays from every portion prove
it to be OF high grade. and carrying a
large percentage OF lead. The winze
is being carried down rapidly, and
will be %intersected by the south drift
from the $50. foot level. II is the gen
lleaen's conclusion that the deposit
will be met with both on the $50 and
600 levels. They speak equally a en-
c~ouragingly of other sections OF the
mine, and sum up their opinions as
above stated. The SENTINEL has re
peatedly referred to the ground and
developments in the mine, and we are
pleased 10 see that u statements are
corrobOrated by Those in whose abilities
we have the greatest faith.

UTILIZATION OF MIXED ORES.
Treating and Separating Certain
Complex Metallic Compounds.

Referring to the particular ores and
compounds To which his processes are
applicable. Mr.. Maxwell-Lyte men,
tons that Utah and Nevada contain
large deposits of argentIferous lead,
finely disseminated through a kind of
friable s~iliceous rock. These ores are
unbeatable by the amalgamation, and
refractory under treatment by fusion,
but are particularly fitted for treatment
by the process of sulphatation. The
precision of these processes is so great
that under careful management indus
trial results are often obtainable supe-
rlor to those of a laboratory assay. In
some districts a large class of ores con-
tanning anthony, lead and silver
occur, and the latter metal is generally
in these eases very abundant. If such
ore be smelted an alloy of the three is
obtained, and if the anthony be over
one-third of the weight of the lead the
alloy is brittle, and can be pulverised,
but by no known means can the anti.
moDy he Obtained from this alloy in an
available form; and though it can be
partially withdrawn from the lead by
alloying it with iron, forming an anti
monde of that metal, it takes nearly if
not all the silver with it. Now, if the
mixed metals be reduced together by
fusion and the alloy be pulverised, sui
phated and treated with boiling neutral
brine. it yields up the whole of its lead
and silver. TerOxide of antImony re-
naming behind insoluble, may be
separated by subsistence from the hot
solution, or by the filter press, and
may he fused into metallic anthony
free from lead, whileth lead and silver
are precipitated by metallic zinc from
the brine solution, and treated as above
described. There is always a loss in
treating this class of ores, not, how
ever, nearly SO great as would be in
volved in any other known process of
separation, the loss lying principally
with the anthony, which volatilizes;
but it should never exceed s per cent.
of the lead, II to 10 per cent. of the
anthony, and 7 per cent. of the silver.
such losses must, however, be allowed
for in purchasing these ores.
The brine process is, moreover,
specially applicable for the recovery OF
lead from lead fume, lead ashes, aud
sulphate of lead produced in certain
branches of industry; and it is also to
be observed that although these pro-
cesses are O directly applicable for
the extraction of gold from ores, still
all of this metal which the ores may
possibly contain remains with the
sangue after the acid or brine treat
ment, and this residue is peculiarly
well suited for the economical extrac-
ton of the gold by either amalgama-
ton or by one OF the chlorine processes.

MISSED THE CIRCUS.
And what He Done About Is.

The maddest man we have seen for
many a day was a coal-buruer, who
came in from Roberts Greek yesterday.
He had got it into his head that the
circus would arrive on the 18th, and
the first question he asked when he
struck town was, whether it would be
IN on the railroad in the evening.
When informed that it had been here,
performed, and sd q gone,n his feel
ings were too much for u%tterance.
When he did recover his voice, he
wandered around town, gazed sadly
and poured intentlv over the gorgeous
bills that still ornament the dead walls,
and after getting his fill of the shadow
OF departed glory, went upon the hill
back of the Hoosac furnace, where he
INDUCED in q vein of profanity that
made things hum in and around the
neighborhood. He blasted all the
vegetation i'm that vicinity, swore the
top stones off from the furnace stack,
scared II passing dog into fits, ana
eternally damned himself for A bigger
fool than even before honored the town
with a visit. Somewhat relieved, he
returned to the classic precincts OF the
| Lower Level, and when we saw him
last he was roaring drunk, whooping
and yelling with pure delight, setting
them up for the boys and girls, and
declaring that he would organize a
little circus of his own, right then and
there. We reckon he did. and we will
venture the prediction that he will see
the elephant, and pay for it, before he
leaves Eureka.

AN EXPLANATION.
why Eureka Ores are shipped to
Utah

1t is a mystery to many of our min
ers why Utah buyers can enter the
Eureka market and not only compete
with our furnaces in purchasing cus-
tom ore, but also pay much better
prices than can be obtained at the re-
duction works. 1t is a problem, how
ever, that is easily solved, and admits
of a simple explanation. At the pres
ent time there are only three compa-
MES running furnaces in this district
the X X Consolidated, Richmond and
Eureka Consolidated. The latter does
not s1nelt any but its own ores, and
both of the others are entirely inde-
pendent, the mines under their control
furnishing working material to any
desired amount. As a consequence
they do not treat for ores, and only
receive such as are offered them, pay
ing a scale of prices established at fig
ures that leave no margin for any loss.
Another important point is that the
object to be accomplished in our re-
ducing operations IS to smelt large
quantities., and close working of ores
is sacrificed to big returns. If a so ton
furnace can be made to run through
an average of so tons. we consider that
a point gained. Not so with a Utah
smelter. With them close returns are
looked to and figured upon rather
than the quantities reduced. A matter
OF a dollar a ton between the assay and
the working value shifts the accounts
from profit to loss, and Vice Uersa.
Another point with the Salt Lake buy
ers is that Eureka ores contain a large
percentage of iron, a constituent absent
from the ores of that Territory, hence
product is used as a fux, and does
away with the necessity OF their pur-
chasing ores for that especial purpose.
There are other reasons, such as the
cheapness of fuel, labor, ETC., that OPP
crate to their advantage, and enables
them to pay a special rate of SIT per
ton freight from this point to Salt Lake
and still make a profit. The above
fully explains the situation, aud we
have no reason to growl over their
presence. In fact, the owners of small
mines are reaping quite a harvest, and
the expectation of ores does not work
a hardship to any one.

The Picnic.

The picnic INDUCED in yesterday by
the Palisade school and Eureka Wis
itors, was a very enjoyable affair.
The programme was changed some
what from that announced, the cold
weather rendering it necessary to
search for a sheltered place. With
this in view, the party proceeded
tc the Hay Ranch, where they
utilized the Railroad Company's
immense barn, and spent the
day in appropriate festivities. The
children rollicked and played in the
hay. and the older ones spread the
lunch and Toasted handsomely. A
merry day was passed, and all who
participated are loud in their praises OF
the pleasures of the occasion.

Dissatisfied Stockholders.

A meeting ofstockholders dissatisfied
with the management of the Day.Silver
Mining Company was held Wednesday
evening, at San Francisco, and was
largely attended, 5000 shares out of a
total 100000 being represented in per-
son or by proxy. Mr.. Garrison, who
originally sold the mine for $40 900 and
10000 shares OF CT pital stock, explained
its past history II future prospects,
and the committee appointed at the
last meeting of dissatisfied stockholders
presented "A balance sheet furnished by
j. W. Pew, the Secretary of the COM
pany, which showed that the receipts
for six months, ending April LIST, had
been $50, 1903, of which S37,646 was de-
rived from sales of ore, and the balance
from loans. while the disbursements
had been S59,021, leaving a balance Of
cash on hand OF So. The statement
was qualified by the explanation that
no accurate accounts had been received
from the mine since February. Reso-
lutious condemnatory of the present
