A new method for extracting
gold from it's ores has Recently been
introduced in the mining districts
of Wyoming, and is called the Fau-
vel process. The crushed ore is
heated to state of incandescence
and quench4d in bath of cold
water. Enough steam is Instantly
generated to shatter it, and any
glaze or film is therefore ruptured.
The PARTICLES Of gold arc thus bro
ken down to a remarkably fine
state and are rendered very brittle.
The gold is cleanand shining and
quite free from any coating of OK
ide. This method makes it unnec-
essary to crush the ore very finely,
and in addition the output of the
mine is greatly increased Ores
and Metals.

1t is surprising to learn that
Mexico is importing silver bars
fr I'm the United States. The New
York dispatch announcing this
says: This is like carrying Goals to
Newcastle. 1t is stated that mas
much as this transaction involves
an expense of nearly Z per cent.
consisting of transportation and
mintage charges, it may besconsid-
as strong illustration !, of the ef-
feet which the low price of silver is
having on the trade of silver coun-'
tries. Mexico exports large guam
titles of coined silver, and the only,
condition which would make the
reimportation of bar silver for
coinags purposes possible would be
be very large diminution in i'm
ports, coupled with alarge increase
of exports of merchandise. This is
actually happening in Mexico. 1t
is significant, as illustrating the
tendency on the part Of silver
countries to become more and more
independent of gold countries, so
far as their supply Of manufactured
goods is concerned, and also the
stimulus which;low silver has given
to the exports from silver countries.
The Mexican silver dollar is at a
premium of about I per cent, and
foreign exchange in Mexico is at a
discount of about 7 per cent, a con-
dition the reverse of that which
now prevails in the United States.
Countries on a silver basis are
prospering under the low price of
silver, while the gold basis coun-
tries are suffering. u

Oranges in Arfzoua.

The recent frosts III Florida. that
destroyed almost the entire crop Of
oranges, recall similar frosts in

which ruined half their orange
crop. To ascertain if similar con-

M. Woods recently interviewed j.

answers: .S
"Our oranges were gathered and

matoes from vines on which the.
leaves have not been touched by
