him save that he had relatives in Cal
ifornia. Alec Simpson, Joe Fitzger,

SILVER CITY NOTES.


/
Ten stamps are running twelve
hours per day at the Orc Elmo mill
but the ore is from cleaning out the
second and third levels, and is not
expected to show a big cleanup.
Only one concentration has yet ar
rived out of six ordered, and delays
in arrival of other machinery has
kept work on completing the mill
back.
The rich ore encountered in the
third level Of the Orc Elmo has been
left standing in place, the level be-
ing pushed along beside the ledge.
1t will not be taken down until the
mill can be run steadily and the
lower grade ore gotten out of the
way, the ore-house and mill now
being both full of ore.
The Leonard mill is now running
on Florida Mountain ore taken
from dump, but proving good pay.
A splendid rain on Monday last
frightened things up about Silver
and will probably give the idle mills
a supply of water.
Captain DeLamar of the Wilson
mines at Wagontown is talking of
moving the Cosmos mill nearer to
the mines. The new ocation Sc

abundance Of clear water, good
water-power and can be reached
from the mines by a short tramway
The Captain is chockful of energy
and worth q whole platoon Of com.

Cigars and beer are now readily
obtainable in Silver by simply edg

and no matter which wins the ma

"EXpERT" RAYMOND.

The editor Of the Engineer and
Mining Journal" who once, pre-
sumedly through $4,000 check,
saw and reported Sl2,o00,000 in
sight in the Little Pittsburg mine
at Leadville, when there was actu-
ally less than $500, began more
than a year ago to throw out vague
hints that the Alturas Gold Linn
tied at Rocky Bar would be shown
up in his journal. Strangely enough
every time he said something I'M
friendly about that famous property
it has refuted his statements by
proving richer than ever.
He now seems to have become
desperate and has promised to show
up the Alturas in his paper, and
will include in his expose the Orc
Elmo property at Silver City. This
famous expert, thirteen years ago,
visited the ORC Elmo and then pub
lished in Government official doc
ument,a most tiattering account Of
the value of the ORC Fine. He has
not seen it since, and what he can
say now to refute his former state.
ments will show that the present
owners have not considered then
valuable enough to be paid for.

THE THERMOMErRIc SCALE.

The scale in use in any thermometer
is more or less arbitrary. It is neces'
sary to fix two definite temperatures,
and assign their positions on scale.
Water being one of the most common
bodies in nature. is usually employed,
and freezing and boiling points are
taken as definite points, especially as
the temperature Of freezing water OF OF
melting ice is almost absolutely fixed
pressure altering it only very slightly.
The thermometer generally used in the
United States and Great Britain is OF
the Fahrenheit scale, which places the
freezing point too great by % degrees
In Germany the scale used is Raumer's.
which places the freezing point at zero,
as does also the French measurement,
which is known as the centigrade scale,
and is used almost exclusively by
scientific men of all nations. 1t is sup
posed that Fahrenheit fixed his zero at
the point OF greatest cold that he had
