THOSE HOLES IN THE GROUND.
Which Used to be Known. as Gold
Mines.
A Portland Man Has Bought One, and is
Going to WorkIt-This One is in Sorrento
Prospect of Others Being Worked Also
Especial to the PRESS. }

Augusta, Me-, May 31.-Some time ago
the PRESS referred to revival of inter
est in those holes in the ground in vari-
Gus parts of Maine which were once
called gold mines. How the State went daft
on the subject in the early sos will be re-
membered. People recall the specula-
tion in the $50 called) securities of the
half hundred newly fedged companies.
Few have remembered, however, that
while the companies received nothing in
paying quantities but stocks and bonds
which did not pay the wages, there was a
foundation for this Maine mining craze
in the fact that there was gold in the
ground Perhaps it was not there in pay
ing quantities., but it was there, and
there are men in the State today who
believe that the reason these mines of Is
years ago did not pan ,ouU--which is a
real mining phrase and so suited to the
subject-4Was because they were not prop
erly worked, the adequate appliances not
being then obtainable for the very small
amountof ready money people were will
ing to risk in the venture.
A Portland man, Mr.. Borden, manager
for the Fleischmann Yeast Company, en-
tertains this view in regard at least to one
mine. On Swords Island, in the new
town of Sorrento, is shaft sunk during
the days when fortunes were thought to
lie just beneath the surface of the earth
Mr. Borden has an abiding faith in this
mine and has bought up all the outstand-
ing obligations of the company, which in
1881 sunk a lot of good money in the $50
foot shaft they dug. The mine was then
worked by Portland parties who took
out - tons of ore, which was carried to
Portland and milled there 1t yielded
$780, but it is said, with the improved
machinery obtainable today the same
amount of ore would have given return
OF ~, 600. Eight assays recently made of
ore taken from the mine have, it is said,
shown an average of $33 worth of gold in
ton of ore. The amount varied all the
way from S4 to S97 a ton. So Mr.. Borden
has the faith to believe that he has good
thing, Notwithstanding the fact that so
hole in Swords Island and stayed there
The Rising Sun is not the only mi ne
which, it is said, will soon be in opera
tion. In the town of Hancock, four or
five miles distant, is mine believed to
be on the same vein of quartz which is
relied upon to yield the yellow metal to
assist the Sunrise on Swords Island.
This mine has been bought by New
York man, who has erected new build
ings over the old shaft and in now ex-
pecting the arrival of milling machinery
from New York. Last winter he collected
several hundred cords of fire wood which
is now piled by his buildings to be used
in running the boilers. This mine. like
the Rising Sun, was once in operation
and like it was abandoned.

PORTLAND MAINE SATURDAY

RES OF the. local boards of health, Df
Young explains the purpose of the extenr
slve amendments to the health laws as
follows:
Section ii, IA, Is and 10 are amended
by striking out the words attending
physician wherever they occurred in the
original law Under these amended sec
the decision of these question of public
safety rests with the local board alone.
Section of Chapter 139. Laws of 1890
makes cerebro-spinal meningitis, measles,
membranous Group, whooping cough and
pulmonary tuberculosis, or consumption,
notifiable diseases, and Section requires
local boards of health to notify the State
board of cases of typhoid fever and OF the
diseases mentioned in Section 2.
Among these additional notifiable dis
eases, cebro-spinal meningitis, or spotted
fever, is an infectious disease with NOR
tality rate in some outbreaks, hardly ex-
ceeded by that of any other disease. Mem
branous GROUP is diphtheria of the respi-
ratory tract, and its sanitary care should
be that of diphtheria in other forms.
When measles or whooping cough appears
particular care should be taken to exclude
its contagion from the schools and by
means of Circular No. 561, the teachers
should be apprised of their duty under
sections 10 and 90.
THE notification of pulmonary tuber-
culosis is required that there may be an
assurance that the patient and his attend
ants or associates understand that, with
carelessness, there is danger of infection,
and that, with intelligent, care there is
practically none.
"Under Section 2, of Chapter IA, Laws
of 1895, it becomes the duty of local
boards of health to exercise some super
visory powers over glanders and tubercu-
losis in domestic animals
FINALLY, Section % of the Vital Statis-
tics law, a copy of which is herewith en-
closed, endows local boards of health with
authority to prescribe what precautions
shall be observed before the transportation
by common carriers of the corpses of per-
sons who have died of infectious diseases.
When it is considered that only ten
years ago the State had no health de-
partment, it will be seen that the growth
of the law has been a rapid one. When he
became secretary to the State board DR..
Young had one assistant, young wom-
an. to help him in his correspondence,
but work extended SO fast that soon the
amanuensis, was running a type writer,
one of the first used in the State House.
Now DIR. Young has three regular assist
ants, two of whom devote their time to
the vital statistics department.. From
time to time other help is employed as
needed Beginning ten years ago with
nothing, the department. has become un-
der intelligent management one of the
most valuable in the State government.
