the Deposition of Gold.


the Deposition of Gold.
An exhibition OF the greatest interest
to mineralogists and practical miners in
relation to the much argued question as
to how gold was originally deposited in
auriferous quartz will shortly be seen at
the Imperial institute. Mr.. j. c. T.
great attention to the subject. has lately
brought to this country a number of
specimens of previously non-gold bear
ing stones in which he has artif1cially
introduced gold in interstices and on the
face in such a manner as to defy detec-
ton, even by skilled experts. Some of
these speciments were shown privately
to several distinguished biologists, who
expressed great surprise at the remark
able character of the exhibition.
The discovery some years ago that gold
could be induced to deposit from its min
eral salt to the metallic state on any
suitable base, such as iron sulphide, led
Mr.. Johnson to experiment with various
salts of gold, and he has obtained some
extraordinary results. He has, for eX-
ample, found it practicable to produce
most natural-lookinS speciments of aurif-
eroUS quartz from stone Which previous
IL, when assayed, contained no trace of
gold. Moreover. the gold, which pene-
trates the stone in a thorough manner,
assumes some of the more usual natural
forms
In one specimen shown the gold not
only appears on the surface, but pene-
trates each of the Nominations, as was
proved by breaking. One needs hardly
point out the Importance OF the expert
ments in relation to the gold-nining in
duStry; for, having found how the much
desired metal may have been deposited
in its matrix, the knowledge should help
to suggest how it may be economically

The New Court House

The committee Of the County Comm ission-
ers appointed to consider the plans for re-
modelling the Conrt House, met Monday morn
ing and held consultation with M. W. A :.
Edwards, of the firm of Wilson h Edwards,
architects of Columbia, who were employed
to report as to the cost of repairing and re-
modelling tn. Court House 10 accordance
with the plans submit ted by The bar.
Mr. Edwards submitted plans and a sketch
of the building az it will appear when the
work has been completed. The sketch shows
very handsome and graceful building in
the Corlnthian style that would be an orna-
ment to the city and one that every inhabi-
tant of Sumter County might take just
pride in. The interior arrangements will
give ample Office room for all Of the County
officials and the court room will be both
large and comfortable.
A corridor will extend through the entire
length Of the building on the ground -four
and the Offices will open on this instead of on
the open square as at present. There are to
be TWO large ire-proof vaults for the storage
of records, and stairways in the front eud
rear.
The estimated cost for completing the
building is $4,000 AS there is but
$4,000 available the committee could take no
action, it therefore adjourned until The Board
Of Commissioners can be called together.

A New Enterprise.

Mr.. E. Hogan has bought the county right
for quick process of tanning leather, known
as the sBoss Tau," and purposes opening 3
tanoery. By the quick process hides are
thoroughly tanned in from two to four weeks,
according to The thickness of the hide, and it
is claimed that the leather is of better quality
than that made By the old process which re-
quires from mouths to year. The tanning
is done with the extract made from the en-
tire tree instead of ground bark. Mr.. B F.
Deardorff has been here for several weeks
representing the owners of the patent, during
which time several grades of leather have
been tanned aod finished These samples
show up well, and any one interested can see
them by c.lliug on Mr.. Hogan. The success
of this enterprise will keep good many dol
las here that would otherwise 60 away.
The hiaes are here and there is constant de-
mand for leather of ali kinds. We hope that
Mr.. Hogan will meet with the success that we
anticipate.
