THAT ELECTRICAL MACHINE.
Ontario People Take No Stock in
UImer's Alleged quicksilver Saw
ing.

Just how the electrical machine pat
ented by f. NJ. Ulmer and tested on
tailings from the Ontario mill last
ties Of quicksilver and other metals is
the problem the Ontario people would
like to solve, in view Of the fact that
the assays made daily on the tailingS
never show a metallic value of more
than 81 per ton. This is an extremely
light average for silver-gold mill tail
ingS, and with it the Ontario company
is perfectly satisfied, for it shows that
the saving of the values in the ores
treated in the mill is run up to
high percentage. Under the personal
management of Foreman Moffat, the
work being done in the Ontario mill
made by Mr.. Moffat to Superintendent
Chambers and by the latter to the
board of directors of the company are
very gratifying. Neither Mr.. Chambers
nor Mr.. Moffat take any stock in the
Ulnler process, If the work done on the
Ontario tailings is to be the standard
fixed The machine was at work two
and half days, and it is claimed by
those who know, that the saving of
quicksilver was not over two pounds.
Inasmuch as the reports of the On
quick is something a little less than
two pounds for each ton of ore treat
ed, this saving by the Ulmer machine
does not seem remarkable. In connec-
ton with the work done by Ulmer, it
is said that for one entire night the
electric current was turned off, with
out the knowledge Of that gentleman,
and when examined the plates did not
seem to nave suffered any from the
loss of the electricity which is sup
posed to be the means of saving the
metals The saving seemed to have
been as heavy without as with the
current.
One of the statements made by the
Park Record in connection with this
machine was that Mr. Timer did not
know the value of the tailings he was
treating, for the reason that no assays
are made This is entirely incorrect,
as daily assays are made of the tail
ings from the mill, and these could
have been obtained upon application.
The average value left in the tailings
is less than 81 per ton

good authority that they intend max

AMATEUR ATHLETES.
Entries Have Caused n Great Deal
of SpecuIatiOn.

OF Speculation
NEW YORK, Sept 13-The publication
of the official entries for The A A u.
championship meeting has caused a great
deal of speculation among all those who
are interested in the final makeup of the
International team. Outside of the sprints
there is very little speculation because
the first and second men who will wear
the mercury foot colors are practically
decided upon. But uncertainty prevails
regarding the sprints. On Labor Day
Crum defeated Lee, Goodwin and Wefers,
and at Manhattan held last week We
ferS defeated Crum and Lee, so that it is
a difficult matter to decide who are the
best men in America. Should Crum win
both events on Saturday, lie is sure of
q place on the team and those who have
seen the speedy westerner run predicts
a sure victory for him. IN present form
the contest should be between Crum and
Wefers as Lee has fallen off percepti5ly
and is running yards behind his old form.
Champion Burke is in very good form
and the Boston man is said to have a
very fair chance of winning the quarter
mile. Townsend, Goodwin and Coombs
are also fast men.
The bicycle race will be the most rep
resentative class A event held in this
the starters are Hughes OF Syracuse, who
IS i very fast man ami may win; Dawson
and Dickey, of the New York Athletic
club and Roome, Hunter and Darmer,
of the New Jersey Athletic club.
Charles fitzpatrick, the peerless half,
mile runner, is in championship form and
experts think he will win. Nipple and
Remington will make "a good run FOR

FORCE AT ELECTIONS.
Col. Troy Tells When Its Use is JUS
tifiabIe.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Sept. 13.-Colo-
mel D. S. Troy, one Of the leading
lawyers of the state, who recently
Joined the Populist party in the inter-
est of honest elections and free silver,
as he said, and whose plan for honest
election and a free silver convention,
to meet in Birmingham, October IL
next, was adopted by the Populists, is
out in a two column article in the state
organ of the Populists which makes
interesting reading.
Colonel Troy endeavors to explain
under what circumstances the use of
force at voting places would be legal
and justifiable. He regards the wilful
refusal of the county officials to have
in the board of election inspectors an
intelligent representative of the opposi-
ton whenever practical to do so as
sufficient evidence of a fraudulent pur-
pose to debauch the election franchise,
and an honest law abiding citizen, he
asserts, has the same right to prevent
the election being held by them as he
has to prevent any other violation of
the law in his presence. He thinks
that under these circumstances what
ever force is necessary to stop the
election should be used, even though
blood has to be shed.

Peculiar to Itself.

Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar to it
self, in a strictly medical sense, in
three important particulars, viz: first,
in the combination of remedial agents
used; second, in the proportion in
which they are mixed; third, in the
process by which the active curative
properties of the preparation are Sc
cured. These three important points
make Hoods Sarsaparilla peculiar in
it's medicinal merit, as it accomplishes
cures hitherto unknown.
But it is not what we say but what
Hoods Sarsaparilla does, that tells the
story. What Hoods Sarsaparilla has
done for others is reason for conf
dence that it is the medicine for you.

BACK FROM THE blue MOUNTAINS
Frank KfmbaI Pleased With the
Mining Outlook There.

Frank Kimball was at his desk again
Yesterday after vacation spent in
the Blue mountains, San Juan and
Grand counties. The gentleman is one
of the owners of the Gold Queen mine,
which is just now being quite extern
sively developed, Ben Haywood being
in charge. A long tunnel is being driv-
en- toward the seat of the ore body and
when this improvement is finished 1t
is anticipated that the property will
be in a condition to produce some rich
ore. Mr. Kimball says he is well
pleased with the showing in the mine
and. with the other owners, clings to
the opinion that they will make of it
a heavy producer.
The Blue mountains are noted for
the richness of the float picked UP by
prospectors, but the number of rich
mines discovered is light. In the
neighborhood of the Gold Queen is To-
Gated the Viking group, owned by
Payson and other Utah county people
This mine was found by means Of
float, but to date it has not been made
to give up much treasure. When first
worked small lots of ore were taken
from the mine, and some of these went
as high as $1,000 in gold. The owners
have just decided to resume the de-
velopment work on the group.

BONDED THE GRAY BULL.
Dix and Saunders Will Develop the
Promising Group.

Dix and Saunders Will Develop the
Promising Group.
Mercur Mercury-Thomas and Riley,
of Stockton, have secured a bond on
the Gray Bull group, comprising three
claims from Dix and Saunders, for a
period of one year. The bond is for
$4,000 and work is to be prosecuted
steadily during that period. The
ground is located in the country north
east of the Golden Gate, and the for
nation seems favorable.
Considerable assessment work is now
going on in the district, and there will
be more during the coming two months.
It is probable that this work will re-
suit in the development of more mines
in the district. Had the annual assess
ment work for the past two years not
been suspended the district would be
far ahead of what it is today.
The ore body in the Northern Light
is opening up in great shape, and it is
not impossible that it will develop into
one of those immense pockets which
have placed more than one man on
the shady side of Easy street in the
past. The ore now being mined runs
from 100 to 400 ounces silver and will
average zoo ounces. A car averaging
that amount per ton, will be shipped
from this point in a day or two.
Work is being prosecuted steadily on
the Friday, William Penn and Gold
Bug claims, adjacent to the Rover and
Jim McEvoy, the superintendent says
the showing is now first class. Burton
and Creighton, who hold the bond on
this property are feeling much en-
couraged.
a large force of men are now en-
ployed on the pipe line of the Gold Belt
company and the water will be here in
a few days now. The ditch which has
caved in badly since being dug, will
have to be cleaned out and dug deeper.
The pipe is arriving every day and the
machinery contractors are on the
ground and at work.

that by shipping from Mercur, instead
of via Tooele as formerly, saving
of 81 per ton in freight charges IS

Frank Knox, who accompanied Gen

Ajax for the purpose of inspecting
the property, came in yesterday and is
greatly enthused over the great prom
Use made by the mines of the group.
He declares that the showing of ore
is immense, and just as soon as con-
nection is made between the levels In
the new workings and the third one
hundred feet is tackled onto the foot
of the shaft the property will be in a
position to put out a heavy lot of high
grade ores. Mr.. Knox says he has
never known the Ajax to be in it's pres
ent splendid condition.
The Ajax company is steadily pay
ing off its Indebtedness to the Salt

Getting Some Good Values.

Recent developments in the back
drafts of the Mercur properties have
been of very encouraging nature.
There the arsenical ore which is found
in the Golden Gate is being encoun-

also. The average value of the ore is
$40 per ton, while some of the returns
went as high as $50. Superintendent
Treweek says it will not cost more
than 50 per ton more to treat the ar
senical than the regular ore. A roast
ing plant will have to be erected.
