An insurance man, in speaking of mys-
ferrous fires, says that many can be at,
tributed to natural agencies, Said he:
"Linseed oil and cotton are liable at any
time to produce spontaneous combustion.
Especially is this true when the cotton is
tightly wadded, Is it generally is when
used in rubbing and polishing furniture
A great many mysterious fires may be
traced to this cause. Workmen use q
wad of cotton or cotton rags in rubbing oil
IN furniture, and when they get through
they throw it into a rubbish heap in some
corner, and the building is locked up. The
heat that is generated by the contact OF
the cotton and oil produces spontaneous
combustion, and the rubbish catches fire.
Thu losers attribnte it to incendiarism
when the origin of the fire might be easily
traced directly to this chemical phenom.

Different Processes of Treating Ores.

~ IpCsSbtS III lECttllue oTeSs
The trouble with nine-tenths of the fail
ures in mining is not the lack Of ore or its
poor quality, but its character. That is
where the great mistake is made. Or
has to be treated to SO many and to s.
greatly different processes. An inexperi-
enced miner, such as most of the investors
are, does a little developing, gets a few
pieces of ore, takes them to some one who
is alleged to know something about it, and
Is told that that the ore is free milling. He
puts up a mill on that basis, and When he
comes to work it he finds his ore is not free
milling, and that his mill is totally unfit
for the work for which it was intended.
Then a tearing down and building II p over
and over again, begins, to suit the mill and
the process to the ore, and finally the whole
enterprise is dropped, the investor being
Disguised and crippled by his losses.
One thing should always be kept in
mind-pre differs as much as night. and
day. Within three feet you may find free
| milling ore and the hardest and most
| stubborn ore to treat. You may have
some next to wall that win respond
easily to your process, and next to it may
be a piece that you can not possibly mas
ter. The only thing to do is to have a
mill to suit your ore as nearly as possible,
and then sort the ore piece by piece, send
ing part of it to mill and part to the
smelter. If that one plain was keptstead,
lily in view there would be q great many
more successes than there are.-Mining

0ne'day recently a gentleman stepped
into a Cincinnati hotel to make a call. He
placed his umbrella in the rack before he
went up to the hotel parlor, but being OF
a facetious turn of mind he pinned a card
on the umbrella, which read
