n short stay in Mercur where he. in
gpected the mine in which he is in
ested and incidentally looked around
the great district Mr.. Stephenson re-
ports the camp in GOOD shape and the

Developments Of the past few days
in the Geyser Marion have revealed
disclosures far beyond the expectations
of the most sanguine. In running a
tunnel from the Geyser mill into the hill
the miners proceeded to distance of
ls5 feet and opened up gold vein, not
before known TO exist in the property,
although on a line with q stratliiCation
Of ore in which the miners have been
working for some time near the
Marion mill. 1t was thought that the
latter mineral was but cave from the
regular vein but the discovery here re-
ferred to has exploded that theory and
established the fact of there being an
additional gold vein in the Geyser-
Marion ground, about 40 feet under
meath the vein that has made the mine
what 1t now is.
The discovery here referred to has
been the cause of much rejoicing in
the Geyser- Marion ranks, and from
now on the mine will take on a double
value, as 1t practically gives the COM
pany an additional mine, so far as ore
production is concerned. The values are
said to be as high az those taken from
the upper vein, and this also gives
much encouragement. Both the COM
pany's mill are now running smoothly
and without Il hitch.

GoLD-sAvING MACHINE.
Invention of Professor Fox Operated on
Snake River PIHccrs.

p. p. Shelby gives very interesting
report to the Boise, Ida, Statesman,
of new gold saving machine that has
recently been tested on the Snake river
near Ontario. The results of the tests
are such us to warrant the expectation
that the machine Will prove a great
success.
This machine Is the invention Of
Professor A. T. Fox of the Presbyter-
ian college at Sumner. Wash. II saves
the gold by amalgamation, but the
inventor has adopted n new idea to
overcome the difficulties heretofore ex-
perienced in getting the plate TO take
up the fine particles of the precious
metal The machine utilities the law
of centrifugal force, the gold bearing
sands being thrown outward and up
ward over the copper plates, As the
tendency of the gold is to gravitate to-
wards the center, and as the centrifu-
gal force tends constantly TO throw II
outward towards the circumference, 1t
kept in contact with the mercury
until amalgamation Is effected.
Mr. Shelby became acquainted with
Professor Fox some time ago and ad-
yised him to test his machine on land
owned by Mr.. Sebree below Caldwell.
The inventor, however. finally set the
machine up at Ontario. A test run
was made short time ago, twenty

being put through the machine.
The machine in which the test was
made is small AFFAIR operated by
hand. Mr. Shelby states that us ca
nacIty liz capable of almost unlimited
expansion, by enlargement and with
the use of power. 1t will readily be
seen that, II proportionate results can
be obtained in operating on a large
scale. the machine viii become the
means OF opening up the snake flNer
