The Experience Of Mrs. reters.

Mrs. Peters had ills,
Mrs. Peters had chiils, Ia,
Mrs. Peters was sure she was going TO die;
They dosed her with pills,
With powders and squills,
with remedies wet, and with remedies dry.
Many medicines lured her,
But mono of them cured her,
Their names and their number nobody could
tell;
And she soon might have died,
But some pellets were tried
That acted like magic, and then she got well.

she wandered out upon the platform

sir. What is it?
SIN some of the Atlantic coast
states where railroads must tunnel
through mountains, bridge mighty
chasms and blast the roadbed out oi

than in western prairie states where
the roadbeds are almost made by ma
ture. Why is that?
"lt does beat all what utterly
thoughtless questions some people
ask. The rates of fare are higher ir
the west because it costs more to rur
the trains, sir. Anybody might know
that"
"What makes it cost more? Wa
ges are the same or lower; you min
YOUR own coal and get it dirt cheap
There are no heavy grades or multi
plicity of stopping places to wear gu

Working Auriferous Gravel.

We have made brief mention of
the fact that Mr.. Gideon Frisbee, one
of the inventors of the Frisbee- e-Lucop
mill, has devised a plan for working
auriferous gravel dry, which is being
tried in this State, and are now able
to give further particulars. By the
plan proposed, after the cement or
gravel in the bank is broken up in
the usual way, or gravel taken from
the drift, it is loaded into cars by
hand, or automatic power-shovels,
run to the mill. Here it is dumped
into the upper end of rotary grizzly
16 feet long by 4 feet inside dame
ter, formed of iron or steel bars four
inches wide and II inches thick, set
radially with their edges toward the
center, with space between the bars
of fve-ei ghths of an inch, the whole
cylinder resting on rollers. 1t has
one end lower than the other, and is
revolved at the necessary speed by
suitable gearing. The cement is
tumbled over and over, powders con-
tanned breaking up and disintegrating
the mass which is all the time travel
ing toward the lower end. The finer
portion is discharged between the
bars, and the coarser, which carries
no gold, is discharged from the lower
end into cars, removed and dumped
| The fine matter passing through
bars falls into an ore-bin from which
, it runs to a wet mill and is reduced
so that it will pass an elght-mest
screen. This makes it fit to pass ov'
er plates without securing off the
amaIgam, and brightens the rusty
gold. After this it passes ovel
plates in the usual appliances fo1
saving gold in quartz mills.
The wet mill has capacity of 1O(
} to $50 tons per day through an eight
, mesh screen, and as but one-tenth, o.
D possibly less, of the total amount o
gravel will be worked over plates, i
is only necessary to have sufficient ca
pacity in grizzlies to work 1000 O
1900 tons per day.
The removal and working of sue
an amount by dry process may seer
g difficult, but large amounts of roc
are being worked by more exper
. sive process (for other purposes) at
. cost of five cents per ton. Mr.. Fri:
j bee is of the opinion that the metho
