There is late growth of interest
in pyritic smelling, there being two
establishments working on this
plan. One is at Deadwood, South
Dakota, and the other is at Toston,
Montana. A Denver company has
also secured lease on the La Plata
smelter at Leadville, and will try
it there. Pyritlc smelling consists
in smelling iron pyrites, concentrat-
ing the values into an iron matte.
1t is not by any means a new pro-
cess, and the Industry long ago
expressed the belief that there ar e
places in the West where the con-
diy%on affecting the cost of freight,
fuel and fuxes are such that 1t can
ba adopted successfully. The Tos-
ton smelter, reported to be running
successfully, is a water jacket fur
mace, in which a hot air blast Is
used. The ore treated is said to
carry over so per cent iron pyrites
and no copper. 1t is said that the
cost of smelling does not exceed
SO so per ton, and that II tons are
concentrated into one ton of matte.

1t would not be surprising If the
exploring party which is gong
down the Grand Canon of the
Colorado, starting from Green
River, Wyoming, should strike
something on their travels. The
Grand Canon is a great place to
prospect. Nowhere else can be
found continuous natural sections
of from 1000 to 5000 feet in vertical
depth, immensely better than any
shafts or borings. The formations
noted in part of the Canon by the
semitic surveys would appear to be
favorable, at least for silver-lead
deposits in limestone, and reported
discoveries are current. At the
lower end some prospecting has
been done; but there is an immense
stretch of unprospected territory
which has never been visited by
explorers who were In search of
mines, the purely scientific parties
being Of course above such things
and prospecting for fossils only.

of copper IN European vitisulture,
as preventive against phylloxera,
peronospera and other pests, and
the extension Of its use as a wash
for fruit trees and plants IN general
which are subject to the ravages of

copper market. Copper sulphate
can be produced from matte very
cheaply by wet processes suitable
for extracting the gold and silver
contents, and, it instead OF being a
mere by product this salt meets the
demand expected, considerable
modification in copper metallurgy
may also ensue. For some years
an increased consumpti, n of copper
in this direction has been looked

Arbor Day,-Friday. May lst.,-was
observed in an appropriate manner by
the teachers and pupils of the Mineral
Point public schools. A ''elass tree" for
the graduating class of 81, was planted
by the members of the high school.
Literary exercises, by the grammar,
intermediate and second primary de-
partments of the first ward were held
in the room of the grammar school,
followed by the planting of tree in
front of the building. Exercises were
held in the Primary school building,
and tree planted by the little ones.
Interesting exercises were held in
the Second ward building, in the
rooms Of the grammar, intermediate
and Second Primary departments. The
Primary and Second Primary schools
united in carrying out well prepared
program. No trees were planted but
all declared Arbor Day to be a de-
lightful occasion.

The question of restraining horses.
cattle, hogs and other animals from
running at large in the city of Mineral
Point came up for consideration at
the council meeting on Monday night.
There was division of opinion among
the aldermen in regard to the matter.
Aldermen Wiel and Knight were
strongly in favor of the passage of
an ordinance restraining animals of
the freedom of the city, which they
have been permitted to enjoy; and
alderman Gorgen was just as positive
that they should not be restrained.
Alderman Knight made the opening
argument. He believed that horses
and cattle should be prevented from
running at large, and gave convincing
reasons in support of this position.
Alderman Gorgen disagreed with him.
He believed it would work an injury
to the poor man. Alderman NYiel
followed in brief but pointed speech
He believed that the city should be
progressive; that every other city in
this section of the state as well as
very many villages, had declared
against animals running at large. He
hoped and believed that the council
would pass an ordinance in accord
ance with what he believed were the
wishes of the people of the city. By
request, J. NJ. Smith, city attorney,
addressed the council upon the ques-
ton before them. He did not wish to
give an opinion as city attorney, but
desired to say that no one would
question the right of the council to
pass an ordinance preventing an
imals from running at large within
the city limits; nd as a private cit
izen, he would say that he was in
favor of the passage and enforcement
of such an ordinance. He would,
however be in favor of giving a re-
spectful hearing to any remonstrance
that might be presented. No remon-
STRANGE against the exercise of the
powers of the council in this regard
had ever been presented, and he there
fore, believed that large majority of
the people of Mineral Point were in
favor of preventing animals from
roaming the streets. The council,
without further debate, passed the
ordinance which had been prepared
and read to them, after fixing July
1st as the date on which it should go
into effect.
