Admittance WAS refused, but the outer
door was quickly battered down with
iron slodyes.
The noise did not arouse the prisoner

THROUGHOUT MISSOURI.
Missouri School of Mines.

Mr.. Courtenay Dekalb, professor of
mining and metallurgy in the Missouri
school of mines and metallurgy, at
Rolla, in answer to the statement made
by the junketing committee of the
legislature hat nearly all the appro-
priation for equipment had been ex-
pended in such a manner as to give the
students practice in the concentration
and Development of gold and silver
rather than those minerals in which
this state is more particularly inter-
ested, said:
This is an entirely gratuitous assumption Of
the committee. absolutely without foundation
In fact, and would indicate that the committee
was unable to judge of the relative importance
Of the various appliances in the mining and
metallurgical plant of the school Of mines. The
truth Is that out of an expenditure OF $1,000.
for equipment. only 500 were expended for
equipment intended for the reduction Of gold
and silver ores. being oae-sixteenth Of the to-
tai. Part of this gold and silver plant,
moreover, is equally applicable to the treat
ment Of copper ores, which are mentioned in
the report among the products OF Missouri. so
that. deducting the cost of this machine, there
remains an expenditure for plant adapted only
TO the treatment Of gold and silver ores the
insignificant sum OF Sis, being merely one
twenty-ninth OF the total outlay for equipment.
The whole of the plant, excepting this small
outfit for gold and silver, is adapted to the
treatment of lead, zinc and "copper" ores. in addi-
tion to which it is applicable to the concentra-
ton Of iron and other ores of less Importance.
The criticism Of the committee, therefore,, falls
to the ground when tested by facts. The labo-
ratory equipment of the Missouri school OF
mines consists of the best and most modern
apparatus, every appliance being OF standard
size. so that students will here be enabled to
gain practical experience in the treatment OF
ores with identicallyt the same machines which
are employed in the great mills and reduction
works Of Missouri and other leading mineral
states. Additional appliances are needed to
perfect the equipment, but as it stands 1t Is
capable OF treating all important ores"
