gold 80 far as he could detect by the
mechanical means at hand. ln or
der to convince him | selected an
average sample, which on assay
gave pennyweights, 2 grains gold
per 1000 pound ton. This was con-
sidered not worth tho working
But my friend maintained that the
gold would grow Again in two or
three years.
True to his word, in two years he
was at the pile again, and by his
crude but sure method was saving
81 psr ton from the ore that would
yield nil by his method two years
before, Again | took samples for
assay and WAS somewhat surprised
to find the value had increased Just
80 per cent, as the result of my de-
termination WAS 5 pennyweights,
l6 grains per ton. On investIga-
ton, | found the sulphurets to be
of character reanily decomposed
by the elements; in fact to such an
extent that, as | afterwards calcu-
lated, over one-half of the pile
must have been decomposed or wash
ed away, SO that with the decom-
position certain rapid concentra-
ton was maintained by the action
Of heavy rains, and the natural ad-
vantage this particular ground off
cred causing the gold to remain be-
hind while the oxides were carried
away in suspension by the water.
My explanation has failed to CON
vince my friend of the pick and
shovel. As the gold III tho tail

allure. He remains strong in the
that a few years will
grow it again.

The gold excitement in the
Wichita mountains, Oklahoma, is
increasing in volume. The only
obstacles met with in connection
with the boom, is the fact that the
now El Dorado lies within the for
hidden territory belonging to the
Kiowo and Commanche Indian
reservation. 1t is thought that the
government will reserve the gold
belt from the homestead law, and
allow the location of mining claims
in accordance with the recent report
Of the geologists.

march of humsniprogress has given
surgeons such knowledge of the
human anatomy that they are now
enabled to perform feats which
formerly would have been credited
to witchcrAft and the black art.
At the annual meeting Of the
Welsh branch of the British Med
icsl association, Dr. Damsr Hsrri-
son gave an account Of an operation
be had performed upon boy, which
he claimed to be unique.
The boy had the misfortune to
cut his wrist with plate glass, which
caused him to lose all sense OF feel
ing OF the hand and was followed by
complete paralysis. The lads
waist was LAID open, and 1t was
found that = portion of the nerve
about two inches in length was en-
trely destroyed. A young cat was
obtained and chloroformed, and i'm
mediatsly after death the surgeon
cnt a nerve out OF the hind leg.
The result was most gratifying.
Sensation returned and the boy was
cured.
An equally interesting and suo-
cessful operation was performed
upon boy who had swallowed q
fish hook. He tried to release il by
pulling upon the line, but ID had
become firmly attached in the lower
and back part OF the throat. A
medical man was called in, and he
procured pistol bullet and bored
a hole through it. 1t was then al
lowed tn slide down over the line to
the hook. The weight OF the bullet
the hook, which, sticking
in the leal and being protected by
it was safely removed.

THE APPARENT GROWTH OF
GOLD

Richard Esmes, Jr NJ. F., in Denver
Mining Industry.
OF the many myths prevalent
regarding gold, the greatest one of
all is it's growth. OF course thsre
are many interesting Instances
where ancient workedou galleries
in mines are slowly closing upon
the incrustation process, 80 that
space long ago excavsted is being
filled with an accumulation result
ing from the percolstion OF water
through the adjacent waIl-rock.
This water has in chemical combl-
nation such minerals as iron, cop
per, sulpher and the precious
metals, which are deposited in the
open crevice, and making for a
second time o mlneIallzed body
which will show by analysis the
above named and many other min
erals. In fact, l have had this &C
tual experience resultant on the
examination OF an old gold mine in
Honduras, Central America, that
had been worked some time prior
to any history we have of that
country. This circumstance gave
to the natives tho idea that gold
grew, and they 40 expressed them
selves; while it seemed in the case
of one individual transmutation
idea had permeated his head, for
he explained that the green carbon
ate of copper was undergoing 3
chang into silver, while the sill
vor in turn would develop into
gold
In India | found caste of min-
ing people who believed that gold |
grew in the bottom 1T the large lakes
situated in that country. they ex-
pressed no practical reason other
than fsiry-tale superstitions.
And even in this country there are
converts to the idea. | was much
and interested some years
ago to hear an intelligent acquain-
tance maintain in strong ard not al
together religious terms that "the
stuff grew in and he knew it," His
experience was based on the fact
that in a certain pile OF tallings,
resulting from the milling of heavy
gold ores, he had treat
ID at one time several tons with no
result Again, in three years time

same pile had gold in it, where

GRANTLANDS AND MINERAL.

GRANT LANDS AND MINERAL.
Much has bsse said as to the ques-
ton whether or moi confirmed land
grant carries the mineral. On this
subject Comr. Stone, OF the gensr-
al land Office writing to Henry Mas
ure, 4 miner and prospsctor on the
Maxwell grant, says: 81 have to
state that the said Maxwell claim
has been patented by the United
States. A suit was brought by the
government to have said patsn. set
aside and vacated; but the US.
supreme court, (the court OF last
resort), fully sustained the federal
patent.
"The executive branch OF the gov
ernment, therefore, has no further
jurisdiction over the lands en-
braced in the approved patented
survey OF tho claim.
"rhe said lands, in New Mex
leo and Colorado. amounting to l.
7l4,764.Q acres, have become pri-
vate property; and consequently
oan not be acquired under the min
eral or other laws of the United
States relating to public lsnds." -
