 The problem of extracting flour and float gold by an economical method oi

 Three of the P. D. Barnhsrt patented
 lamagsmstors sre now ln successful | operation on the Colorado river, near ScsnloD's Ferry, In Mohsve county,
 ArIzons. Hack berry, on the A. & F. k R
 being the nearest railroad station. This machine was patented January l, 1895, snd has not Deea plac d on the market
 :or sale bscsus- the inventor preferred | first to put 1t In operation ou as difficult
 work ss ud be found. Several tests
 were made by hand last winter and
 spring near the present location of the
 works, and proved entirely satisfactory. | The plant now ID operation consists of three machines, revolving screen, etesm | engine, etc., with a capacity for working about seventy five t.ps per day of twen- | ty-four hours. As the coarse gravel 10 taken out before the maternal goes into the revolving screen of 20 mesh fnepess, tue seventy-tivs tons would represent about one-hupdred and fifty tons of the gravel ss excsvatsd from the ground. The machine Is very imple iu con- struction and requires but little power to run it-about one t~entieth es . hores power for each machine.
 It is as we'll adapted to saving fine gold and foured quicksilver in stamp mills ss to the work of placer mining, and can be easily substituted ID the lace of the usual copper plates. Arrangements are being made to efeot several other plants of this machinery st other points on the Colorado river, in the near future.
 Profes sor P. D. Barnhart, tho inventor and pstentee of the amslgamstor, is in charge of the work, and intends to ex- tend the work of operations as rapidly ss circU mstap ces will warrant it.
 Now that the machine is working day and nizbt, it has passed the experiment> al point and is demonstrated suocess.
 Other localities, where -four and flake gold occur, will be reached a early as possible.
 The gravel bars along the Colorado river are numerous. spd contain vast quantities of very fine gold, in some To- calities yielding from e1.50 to 800 per cubic yard. But 50 cents per cubic yard will amply reward the miner for time and labor required to secure this gold.
 A company of eastern cspltsliete ie interested ID the enterprise with Mir Barphart, and expects to enlarge their works as econ as the machinery can be secured.
 It is stated by reliable authority: "The machine saves all the gold."-I Journal Miner.

Round eleven-Grimes missed Billy

This round was much in favor of Rapp.

70 THE TRAVELLING PUBLIC

The Herald has received reliable IN
formation that certain transportation
lines are using grossly unfair and pro-
scriptive methods to suppress its sale
through newsboys and news agents
The reason obviously is that the monop-
olies are so strongly in favor of gold
and Mckinley that they discountenance
the sale Of literature pertaining to Bryan
or silver sold on their trains.
Any one who is unable to procure the
yyeraId under such circumstances will
confer a special favor by notifying the
publishers, either in person or by letter,
as It is proposed to resent any unfair
discrimination by all proper and legal
process possible.
Such methods are but another indica-
&son of the fearfulness with which the
big monopolies and giant trusts regard
the irrepressible tide in favor of the
people's champion and the remonetiza-
4lnn Of silver Some Of the railroad
companies have forgotten that they are
che well paid servants of the public.
The news agent on a car is presumably
for the convenience Of the travelling
public, and 1t is fragrant offense to
the public that they cannot procure
such literature or journals as they desire.
The biographies and speeches of Bryan
ana Sewall, published in book form,
have been studiously boycotted on GER
tain railways. It certainly is not prob
able that the travelling public in search
Of such will be satisfied with anything
else, and railroad company in counte-
uancing such practices only demeans
itself In the public eye.

house is, as stated, back of store
room, between which and the residence
was an open court. While not of an

structure was two stories high and fur

to Celestial ideas. Around one side Of

Mrs. Mon Sing. Her parlor, also, was
gorgeous affair, with it's silken hangings
and embroidelies, all of which were
brought at great expense from China.
Taken as a whole, there was not a finer
fitted-up household in Chinatown.
The little Mon Sings went upstairs and
began to get ready for bed. One Of them
carried a lamp, which was set in a

ploded, and in an instant the room was in

mother rushed up, took in the situation

en-, by the name of Chin Chung, armed
himself with an ak, rushed to the front
door of the house, and, regardless of the
fact that it was unlocked, smashed it in

approved style.

ter than we do ourselves. This fact
has had much to do with the growth
and prosperity of Los Angeles during a
period marked by utter stagnation
nearly everywhere else in this country.
That growth and prosperity would have
been greatly accentuated but for the
prevailing business depression, which
kept tourists at home, and made 1t prac-
tically impossible to realize upon their
investments elsewhere, with view to
settlement here.
But there is now every indication that
better times are at hand. We have al
ready referred to the unprecedented
improvement in business conditions dur
ing and in spite of a presidential cam
paign, which has naturally excited a
great deal of comment. That the i'm
provement was not a mere "spurt'' Is
evidenced by the continued cheerful tone
of eastern journals devoted to trade and
finance, regardless of their preferences
for president.
We have before us as we write copy,
dated September 5, Of such journal!
