considerable trouble in getting his leg

Dr. Joseph A. Booth, of 250 West

brother of the late Edwin Booth and IA
legatee under the latter's will to $4,000.
has secured from Surrogate Arnold an
order requiring the executors to file an

The executors are Il. G. Benedict.
William Bispham and John II. Magoni-
gle. The law requires that executors
shall file with the Surrogate an inven-
tory OF the estate within three months.
Almost eight months have passed and
the inventory has not been filed. The
executors explain their action in not
filing the inventory on the ground that
they thought by waiting a year they
could save money for the estate by rea-
son If a lower assessment and tax. The
executors say they will obey the Sur

before tomorrow.

lam further convinced that II ten
acres out OF each quarter section Of
the plains country were irrigated the
resultant evaporation from the neces-
sary reservoirs and from the irrigated
land would so disturb the existing
climatic conditions that the long droughts
which are now liable to be experienced
would be permanently broken up, and
that the average annual rainfall, instead
of coming at infrequent periods and in
heavy driving storms, always causing
more or less dam age, would be obtained
at frequent intervals and in the shape OF
gentle rains which would do the greatest
amount Of good. The resnlt would be

Boughta Utah Mine.

The Rocky Mountain News states
that the Hon. Henry X. Wolcott has

Floyd district, Utah, for The consider.

great producer OF low grade ore which
10 successfully treated by the Cyanide
process at An average cost VI less than

colt has given a $25, 1000 check TO bind
the bargin. We believe that the hrs.
successful Cyanide mill in the United
States is the one on the Mercur mine.
The ores OF the district, it is said, are
specially adapted for treatment by
this process. Recently the process has
achieved equally good results OF Bl,ck
Hills ores.
The Engineering and Mining Journal
gives the following description oi this
district: The camp is situated In the
foothills OF the southern part OF the
Oquirrh mountains in u straight line be-
tween the old established camps ot
Bingham, IL miles distant to the north,
and Tintic, 25 miles on the south. The
Oquirah mountains run parallel with the
grand masses Of the Wasatch range
about 80 miles west. Mercur has been
lately brought into prominence through
the success there Of the cyanide o
potassium process, for working gold.bear
ing ores. The ore assays from ~ TO $5(

which weighs nineteen ounces and will
probably assay about 81 to the ounce.
The under side Of the nugget is smooth
where II laid on the sand and the upper
surface is irregular. The gold had been
melted by volcanic action and was irregu.
larly formed. 1t was found in small

New Gold Extraction Process.

The extraction of gold in simple and
economical manner by an electrolytic
process, capable Of dealing with every
kind Of refractory ore, is stated TO be the
lately accomplished result VI the long
study and experiment on the part OF
London chemist There are several
electro-chemical processes already IN use
for obtaining gold from refractory ores,
in which such deleterious substances as
sulphur, iron oxide, arsenic, zinc, ETC.,
are associated with the gold. But IL is
found that no one particular process ~
available for every class OF ore. Hence
much money is often expended on an ex-
tensive plant for treating certain kind
OF ore, which has to be abandoned or
supplemented nv another plant, when
the character Of the ore changes. The
main requirements IN these processes
are: FIRST, the circulation OF the pul.
verizsd ore between positive and mega
tive poles; second, q solvent liquid for
the gold third, means Of collecting the
electrolyzed gold, and fourth, the con-
centration VI the positive pole.
In the new universal process the first
requirement is met by having u screw
propeller set vertically near the bottom
OF the tank The solvent IL q dilute
solution Of potassium cyanide, and the
collection OF the gold is effected by a
bath OF mercury, which constitutes the
negative pole. The positive pole con-
sists Of a mixture Of powdered pitch or
rosin. consolidated by heat.
In operation, the ore, mixed with a
certain portion Of water, is placed in the
tank, with the bath OF mercury at the
bottom. On starting the screw the
mixture circulates down the center OF The
tank and impinges gently upon the sur.
face of the mercury. II then travels up
the sides of the tank, which are conical
and on which the positive role is laid,
and back, down to the center, TO be
again driven into intimate contact with
the mercury. The gold IS thus brought
into contact with an actis instead OF a
slug .ish mercury surface, over and over
again, until every particle Of gold has
been seized and absorbed.
1t is stated that some OF the most re-
fractory and typically difficult ores have
bsen submitted to this process, and that
in some cases over 80 per cent Of the
contained gold WAS extracted
The chief advantages claimed for the
process are that the gold is extracted
directly from the ore without any other
preliminary treatment than crushing
that the same che emicals are used oveI
and oyer again; that the process efficient
ly extracts the gold and silver from the
suriferous ores, whether refractory or free
that the precious metals are obtained al
once from the amslgam in the metallic
state, without further chemical treat
ment, and that any workable quantity o
ore may be treated in one vessel at one
operation, and the gold obtained in one
day.-Philadelphia Record.
