WORKING THE JEFFERSON.
Miners Throughout the State Greatly
Interested in Tabor's Big
Scheme.
Description of the Plant and the
Method of Operating Dredge
and Amalgamators.
Eastern People buy the Morning Mine for
$6OO,OOO-News from the Prospect

Placer miners throughout Montana nre
watching with n great deal of interest the
outcome of tho attempt to work the defer
son river placers nsar Three Forks. VIM.
Borland, Il. A. w. Tabor and other Colo
RADIO capitalists have recently at large ex-
pense completed two boats to work the
ground. 1t is tho first practical attempt
under the system, and if successful at Three
Forks will be utilized on other rivers in
Montana known to contain gold. Only
three mon are said to be necessary to work
the machines, two of them being laborers.
Two hours is required for a cleanup, which
may be made daily. weekly or monthly.
The machines just completed have q capa-
city of 5000 yards daily, and the cost is less
than one cent a yard. Not only is it claimed
that the coarse gold will be saved, but MISC
the very fine particles. The plant consists
of an amalgamator, dredge and two boats,
one, the largest being used for the power
required, while the smaller carries the
amalgamator. It is built Of steel and will
handle cemented gravel, boulders or sand
with equal ease. The dredge can be pro-
PEELED either forward or backward, at the
will of the operator, who also handles the
dipper, lifts it through it's cut, swings the
dipper to the hopper. The engine on this
boat also works the amalgalnator on the
smaller boat at the rear, the operator using
switches conveniently placed in d rotating
cab and all under perfect control.
The dredge will clean to bed rock and at
times will cut its way through high bed
rock. The dipper dredge has y capacity of
a cubic yard and automatically opens and
closes At the proper points. The weight of
and engines is about twenty-five tons.
The amalgamator consists of a cylinder
.ical separator, set upon a. peculiarly
shaped tank, which is lined throughout
with amalgam plates of new construction.
1t receives the water from numerous Jets 40
placed in it's bottom as to cause each parti-
Gle that enters the tank to be thrown up
ward and towards the plates a sufficient
number of times to insure not less than 400
contacts with the mercury held in bulk and
otherwise by the peculiar formation Of the
plates, and further, each particle, IN its
transit from the inlet to the outlet of this
tank, is subjected to twelve severe scour-
ings, by means of which coated or rusted
gold 10 prepared for instant amalganation,
and in its transit each particle is placed
thus allowing gravitation its perfect action.
This machine is 40 constructed as to en-
tirely avoid the Towering of mercury, and
to prevent the usual loss THROUGH this cause.
In short the amalgamator can be probably
used, so it is claimed by its manufacturers,
for the recovery of the mercury and ANAL
gam 80 lost. All the water necessary is
eighty miners inches, kept in circulation
through the jets.

Cnuer d'Alene Mines,

The War Eagle is making a splendid
showing of ore. The vein is four and one-
half feet wide, and streaks of galena and
copper are found running through it in

elated over the showing and will drive

possibly can.
Judge W.. IL. Frazer reports that he and
his partners have found the ledge in the
Liitio Chief, and that already they have
quite a strong vein of galsna in their tun-
mel. Ons shift has been working OH the
claim all the winter and spring. 1t llcs ad-
jacent to the Hunter.

ORDERED TO LEAVE TOWN.

Bob Austin Is Charged With Trying to
Make a take to Get Out On.
Bob Austin, one of the most notorious
characters about Helena, was arrested a few
days ago OF suspicion of being concerned
in the burglary of the Boston clothing
store. There was no proof against him,
and though the charge was not pressed he
was given three days to leave town. His
time 10 up to-day. Yesterday Austin was
visited at the Bucket of Blood saloon by Ed
Nixon, a miner from St. Louis gulch. Aus
tin, it is charged, stood Nixon up against
the wall and relieved him of $65. Nixon
had Austin arrested. and to-day he will
probably get his choice of leaving Helena
or working for the coanty.

Miner. 1t is thought that about two weeks

Ing the SUSPENSION ut the mine the
smolter Will be kept in operation, and there

"A N0FfeCtIOh FfOfn MT. ChONteau.
Charles p. Chouteau, while in Helena,
had his attention called TO a paragraph in
some historical publication, in which the
statement is made that there was no lack
of liquor on the Chippewa, the first steamer
to navigate the Missouri as far north as
Fort Benton. Tho statement annoyed Mr..
Chouteau very much. because he said dur
ing the entire time he ran boats on the
Missouri he never allowed strong drink to
be brought aboard, save in tho medical
stores. AS to the Chippewa having large
quantities aboard on the first trip, it is not
4 fact, and in tho interest of history no
made this correction.

as the one in which he sat, and had
never before been afflicted with such
narrowing doubts as to the clean and
wholesome nature of the viands.
A healthy appetite had always hither-
to triumphed over any such thoughts
easily. He had never before been so
powerfully conscious of the offensive
character of fork with bow-legged
prongs and knife with a sticky handle
The distinction between oleomargarine
and butter now for the first time stood
out as wide as the mouth of the pit.
He was made by these things the
more determined to persevere and
escape them. And the food, coarse as
1t was, brought q feeling of confidence.
He consumed thirty cents worth of it,
and then approached the sharp-faced
female at the cashiers desk, to whom he
gave the half dollar. He grieved to
think that his dinner would make such
big hole In 1t. But there was already
hole in 1t, which was far more griev-
GUS, and because Of which the keen
eyed cashier rejected it altogether. The
half dollar was plugged.
