!. Inc following article BY w. A
Bray, mining engineer, 10 clippe,
j from the Victor News: Orc sortin
il ! large percentage Of mining op
erations ID one Of the most impo1
tant departments Of tho work. A
tho orc and tho rock comes out o
the mine it is dumped ID the 40
sorting house for that purpose.
| Each person has : heavy iror
casting. Z worn stamp shoe, OF
which he breaks the orc. The sort
ling hammer is shaped something
like q hammer used by stonecutters
and is made especially for the work
The operation Of sorting consists
of separating the ore which is rich
enough to pay from the waste, OF
low grade ore. which is too poor tc
pay to ship to the smelters or re-
duction works for treatment.
The good ore is separated from
the waste by clipping off poor por-
tons of the rock from the good, OF
vice versa. /: requires a good deal
of skill in most cases to break the
pieces of ore and rock in such q way
that they can be easily separated
without wasting much ore. Sorting
is q trade. It is more difficult ac-
cording to the character of the ore.
In some cases it occurs in such
compact streaks that it is easily
separated from the waste, one man
being able to sort several tons
per day. In these cases the ore
after sorting will be in pieces rang
ing in weight from two to three
ounces to several pounds. In other
cases the ore may be in thin streaks
in a great deal of waste, and requir-
ing great care. in sorting. In these,
after sorting, it will be in pieces as
large as walnut. In some cases
ore sorters can sort as much ore as
ten miners can break in the mine,
and send to the surface; in other
cases it may require half dozen
sorters to dispose of what one
miner can break.
The question Of sorting is one
that cuts very important figure in
the profit and loss account on many
a mine. 1t is quite evident that the
expense of preparing the ore for the
market will be great deal more per
ton in the mine where six sorters
are required for each miner than
where it will if there is only one
sorter for ten miners. This is one of
The items in mining accounts which
he great majority of our eastern |
friends pay very dearly for learning. |
1t is very seldom that q mine
produces ore SO free from waste
'ock, and in such quantities that it
IAN be waste, so that it will not be
'equired to be sorted. Mines of
his character, broken or mined
are generally those carry
ng large bodies Of low grade ores.
Rich ore generally occurs in small
Quantities, scattered through q great
leal of gangue.
Right here is suggested a needed
eform in giving q description oil
uines. It is quite common for the
'verreaching newspaper reporter or
be writer of mining news, to write
bout foot-foot vein of ore which

The senior nine of the high school
visited Lamoine last Thursday and de-
feated the home team by score OF six
teen to thirteen. The weat her was
threatening when the boys boarded the
buck board for the six mile ride to the
Grange, which was reached just before
dinner time. After luncheon of crackers
and cheese, the boys proceeded TO the
ball grounds.
John Brady, the crack left fielder OF the
Ellsworth team, was chosen umpire.
The mines lined up as follows: High

the Bar Harbor catcher OF last year, and a
player from Salisbury's Cove, also assisted
the Lamoines.
The features of the game were the bat

AGAIN VICTORY.
MEETS AND CAP
TURES WEST SULLIVAN.
NO ROWDYISM.

Last Wednesday the Ellsworth base
long list OF victories. They met the
newly -organized Sullvans on the grounds
a. West Sullivan, and Won the game by a
score OF six to four in one OF the best
exhibitions OF ball playing given in this
county this season.
The game abounded in smart, quick
plays on both sides The Sullivans have
secured Nancy, the weIl-known Bangor
pitcher, for the season, and another good
player is Ellis, student OF the East
Maine conference seminary at Bucksport.
His position is at first, but he is no mean
pitcher, as the ElIs"orths discovered in
the game with the Cherrytields at
Frank in on June 49,
Nancy for the Suliyans and Foster for
the Ellsworths both pitched great ball.
The Eilsworths We're fortunate in finding
Nancy at times " hen hit meant run
Foster was a little wild nj times, sending
men to first by hitting them with a
pitched ball.
Adams clearly outclassed Tracey in
catching. He had no passed balls, while
Tracey had several.
Brady and Stuart made several good fly
catches. Ellis made splendid two base
hit, which brought in score for the
Sulivans
The home team was first at the bat, and
Tracey faced Foster. He made scrub
hit, was sacrificed TO second, stole third,
and came home on Ellis two-bagger.
Nancy, BlaisdeIl and Watson struck out
i'll one, two, three order. Fosters per-
picking curves were too much tor them.
Weeks was the first OF the Ellsworth
team to face the doughty little Nancy.
He made a safe hit Adams and Foster
followed, both making safe hits, and all
three reaching home on a sacrifice hit by
Brady, and errors. Brown, Dunn and
Ellington struck out Score three to one
in Ellsworth's favor.
In the second inning the home team
failed to hit Foster, three men striking
out in succession. Ellsworth added one
score to its list.
In the third this order OF things was
reyersed-the Sulivans made one run,
and shut their opponents out. Score four
to two.
The fourth inning was repetition OF
the third score for the Sulivans and
none for Ellsworth. Score four to three.
The Ellsworth rs increased their lead in
the tifth by a score brought in by Weeks,
and III the seventh still another was
made. They were shut out in the sixth,
while the Sullivans had goose eggs laid
al their door.
In the eighth the home team made a
fine squirt, ana Tracey succeeded in
reaching home after two men We're out.
Ellsworth was shut out. The Sullivans
shared he same fate in their half OF the
ninth, and the game terminated in ELS
Worths favor.
