This will be more thru the furnaces
can work. But that will make no
difference to the ore sellers, as all
their ore will be bought Immediately
after sampling, no matter what guam
tity is on hand, and at the usual fair
rates. The company is as strong,
financially, as any in the country; they
have expended over 100000
here without obtaining any returns, as
yet, and if necessary, they will ex.
pend as much more.
The contemplated reduction in
freight rates will make no difference
to the Philadelphia Company, as they
will continue to pay just as much for
ores as the producers can get any
where else. Ii the rate of freight on
ore and bullion is reduced, the Phila-
delphia Company will at once adjust
their tariff correspondin2ly, so that
they will still have the best part of
the Wood River market.

KETCHUM SMELLING WORKS
THEY ARE RUNNING SATlNFAC.
TORILY AND REGULARLY.

The Two New Furnaces Net Blown In
Yet-Where the Ore Tonnage is Looked
For The Average value of Wood
River Ore-A Company that has Spent
$1,OOO,OOO in This Section without
Getting Any Returns -Etc.
Colonel Green, Manager of the
Philadelphia Mining and Smelling
Company, was in town to-day. He
said that the works Of the Little
Wood River Company, at Muldoon,
were working satisfactorily, and the
company would turn ont large
quantity of bullion, this year, and
make a good record. The furnaces
used there are Ct the improved Pa
citic Iron Works make, of San Fran
cisco, and therefore superior to any
thing in that line in the world.
At the Philadelphia Company's
mines and smelling works, good pro-
gress is being made. The mines are
opening up splendidly, and showing
large quantities of ore, that cal. be
extracted at slight cost as compared
with most Of the mines in this sec
ton.
The two old smelling furnaces Of
the company, which are also from the
Pacific Iron Works, are doing good
work and running right along, turn
ing out from one and half to two
car loads of base bullion per day.
The two new furnaces just erected
are ready to start, but the water
wheel has not yet arrived. The new
furnaces will be blown in few hours
after it does. When the four furnaces
get to work they will reduce about
1?O tons of ore, and yield 40 to 80
tons Of bullion per day.
ne WORKS, started as an expert |
ment, arc now an assured success.
They have, during the past two
received ores from over so
mines, and all shippers or producers
who have sent thela have been SO well
satisfied that they have sent more.
The quantity Of ore so far received
exceeds $500 tons, Of which nearly
thousand tons remain in the bins, at
the works. This ore came from mines
scattered all over the Wood River or
section, and averaged 55 per
cent. III lead and about 100 ounces in
silver.
The charges for smelling at the
ketchnm works are precisely the same
as at Omaha and other smeltinS cen.
[ers. On carbonates and free smelt-
NC ores the charge is $50 per ton
which is the minimum. On ores car
'ylng zinc or heavy proportion of
silica, the charge is higher, being pro-
oortioned to the quantity of such re-
oellious stuff carried by the ore. Some
llnds of ore have actually cost the
Philadelphia Company as high as $50
Der ton to reduce; and even in
)maha, where ores are received from
vi parts of the West, and where self
iuxlng charges are therefore possible,
he works charge as high as $40 per
on on low giraffe lead or dry ores.
AS above stated, the four furnaces
# the Philadelphia Company will,
when in operation, have an aggregate
capacity of 1?O tons Of ore
'er day. No difficulty is ANTICIPATED

owing estimate of the quantity Of ore

EFFECT OF DOORS ON MILK.

Upon this question Professor Arnold, In
the work American Dairying," says
"The London NIX Journal cites instances
where milk that has stood a short time in
he presence of persons sick with typhoid
fever, or been handled by parties before
fully recovered from smallpox, has spread
these diseases as effectually as il the persons
themselves had been present. Scarlatina,
measles and other contagious diseases have
been spread in the same way. The peculiar
smell of cellar is indelibly impressed upon
I'll the butter made from milk standing in it,
A few puffs from pipe or cigar will scent
all the milk in the room, and smoking
lamp will soon do the same. A pail Of milk
standing ten minutes where 1t will take the
scent of strong smelling stable, or any
other offensive odor, will imbbe faint that
will never leave 1t.
"A maker of gilt-edged butter objects to
cooling warm milk in the room where his
milk stands for the cream to rise, because
he says the odor escaping from the new
milk while cooling is taken in by the other
milk and retained to the injury of his butter.
This may seem like descending to little
things, but il must be remembered that it is
the sum of such little things that determines
whether the products Of the dairy are to be
sold at cost or below, or as high-priced
luxury. II milk Is to be converted into an
article Of the last class, it must be handled
and kept in clean and sweet vessels, and
must stand In pure fresh air, such as would
be desirable and healthy for people to
breathe"

COMBUSTION WITHOUT FLAME.
Melting Wrought Iron Under a Blow Pipe,
With No Flame.


new theory on cumpwuou WINS pracu.
caliy illustrated by Thomas FIetcner, or War
rington, England, at soiree of the Society
of Chemical Industry, at Owen College, the
result being SO totally unexpected that many
present would, and in fact did 60 away with
theimpression thatsom deception was being
practised. Jacob Reese, the inventor of the
Reese fusing disc, has stated his belief thatif fit
were possible to produce combustion without
fame the temperature and duty obtained
from any fuel would be enormously increas-
ed. Mr.. Fletcher not only has proved the
possibility of flameless combustion in more
than one form, but also has demonstrated
practically the enormously high tempera-
tines which can be obtained by this means
Taking a ball of iron wire of about three
pounds weight, Mr.. Fletcher placed it on
slab Of fire-clay and directing a blow-pipe
fame on it for few second, he Suddenly
blew the flame out. The temperature in
creased so rapidly that in few seconds the
wrought-iron fused and ran into drops, and
this temperature was steadily maintained.
animation did not show trace of fame, al
though the fact that the gas was burning
was proved by re-lighting and extinguishing
it. The same experiment was repeated in
another form by directing the fiameess heat
in which a refractory clay crucible, made es-
pecially for nickel melting, was partially
fused and worked into ball like soft putty,
the sides of the fre.clay chamber being at
the same times fused. The heat was so
great that the blow-pipe laboratory, which
was given up to Mr.. Fletcher for the evening
was much too hot to be agreeable, in spite of
open windows and ventilators. How far this
discovery can be utilized remains to be seen,
but it would appear that the presence of
fame, usually considered to be sign of COM
bustion, is really an indication ofimperfectrs-
suits, and the best duty is to be obtained only
when flame Ii totally absent. II is certain that
such temperatures as those obtained by Mr..
Fletcher without fame have never previously
been obtained with the fuel used, which was
nothing more than small gas supply for .
quarter-inch pipe, assisted by an air.blast

DIAMONDS IN BRAZIL.

Often, down to 1879, the gold hunter has
noticed in the bottom of the bowls in which
they washed the river sands, little bright crys-
tails to which they attached no value. The
brilliancy of these crystals, their hardness and
their regular form, as if shaped by the hand,
had indeed attracted the attention of the min
ers, and many had saved them to use as coun-
tiers in play but gold alone had any value in
the eyes of these adventures. At this epoch,
according to the least uncertain tradition,
monk, who had taken part in the search for
diamonds in india, recognized the nature OF
these counters. He told his discovery to a
certain Bernardo da Fonscca Lobo, who made
1t known in his name to the Portuguese
Government. The King Immediately took
possession of all the lards where the presence
of diamonds had been recognized and where
it could be suspected.
Bernardo received as his reward the title
of royal notary and the command of the mill
tia of the most important city of the region.
The name of the monk WAS forgotten. 1 do
not believe that the name of either could have
been popular at Minas, for their discovery,
which threw hundreds of millions into the
treasury of the King of Portugal, was the
origin of one of the most despotic rules that
any country ever had to endure
The first diamonds were found in the sands
of the brooks, and these sands, or to use the
Portuguese expression, which has passed in
to nearly alllanguagos, cascalhos, still consti-
tute the beds that are principally worked.
But beds of an entirely different nature, stu
ated, like mines of metals, in the midst OF
the strata, and of corresponding depth, have
been brought to notice in later years Pop.

ENGLISH MARRIAGE LAWS.

The English marriage laws have long been
IN euriousiy unsettled condition, both as
regarded tho ceremony OF murrfago is~eia
and the methods of dealing with property
after marriage, writes London correspond.
ent of the st. Louis Globe Democrat An
act has, however, just received the Queens
assent which at last places married women
under the protection of the law. Strange
as it may sound, neither in law nor equity
have married women hitherto in England
had any rights apart from those of their hus-
bands. All man possessed was his own,
and all his wife possessed was his also, un-
less special settlements had been made set
ting apart the property to her own exclusive
use II women worked and made money,
all she made was legally her husbands, not
hers. She was, in fact and in law, VERT
able slave, condition of things which did
not exist in any British colony, nor in any
other civilized country of Europe. BY tho
new act married woman can hold property
Us absolutely rs though she had never been
married. On the other hand, il she has
money she must support her husband, nor
is he responsible for any debts she may have
contracted before marriage. AS regards the
various methods Of getting married in the
United Kingdom, much uncertainty still pre-
wis. In London, residence in parish is
necessary for at least Il fortnight before the
knot is tied In Scotland il suiiices to have
called q woman "wife +" before q certain
number of witnesses to make her really and
actually so. The simplest plan of getting
married in England is to go before the Re-
gistrar, who cnn marry persons of full age
for the sum of 30 cents. But then this does
away with all the paraphernalia of church
and parson, of bridesmaids and wedding
dresses aud presents. Middle class English
men prefer as rule to be married in church
by what is called Especial license"
granted by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
This costs only few pounds, and dispenses
with the disagrecable necessity of having the
names of the respective persons called out,
process known as proclaiming the
banns," for three successive Sundays before
the wedding. There is another license,
much more difficult to obtain, which costs
$3.50, and enables people to be married in
their own drawing rooms

THE PILLOW SHAM.

OF course, pillow sham starched so stiff
II will stand alone, is not n very nice thing
for man to jam his head against when he
crawls into bed But there is no question
but what woman can find thousand and
one reasons why the pillow sham should be
perpetrated as thing of beauty. The
beautiful, clean, snowy white pillow shams,
looming up at the head of the bed, and
standing alone, look very pretty, aud the
lady of the house is greatly pleased with
them. The mon FOLKS also find them very
handy to keep the hair oil off the pillows, so
their wives will not complain about their
pillows being all creased over with oil.
Men can escape all hard feelings liable TO
be sngendered, by neglect.1g to take off the
shams when retiring, and decking out the
lovely linen and fine lace, used in manufact-
uring the shams, with choice and fragrant
hail oil And when he gets tired Of having
his ears sawed off, by coming in contact
with the stiff linen, and his cheek worn raw
by the starch and lace, he can gently slide
the shams to the foot of the bed and jam
his feet against them TO keep them from
getting up in the night and walking all over
him. Even the most energetic pillow sham
will lose its energy and vital force after be-
ing stamped and crumlped at the foot Of the
bed under a mans feet. The pillow sham
is not in any ores way to any great extent ;

women can't get along without them, SO the
