SECRET METHOD OF AMALGAMATIoY.
Frank Willett arrived in Lead YES
terday from Denver, and will probably
make this city his headquarters for
some months. He claims to have q
method of a~malgation that renders the
smelling process wholly unnecessary in
the treatment Of refractory ore. 1t is
called the Jean process. and his partner,
Mr.. Jean, who originated the method,
is expected to arrive from Denver in a
few days. They are looking for a loca.
ton where their process may be given a
thorough test. Mr.. Willett claims that
he can save from So to 50 per cent ofthe
gold in any ore by the ordinary free
milling plan, at a cost not to exceed five
dollars per ton. The owners desire TO
secure the use Of some mill where they
can make a run upon fifty tons of the
refractory ore of the Black Hills, and
MIR. Willett is negotiating for the use of
one of the batteries of the old Hide
brand mill at Gayville, which now
belongs to p. J.. Gibbs. The ore will
probably be brought down from Bald
Mountain tor the test run. Lead Call.

Mining Items.

Reports from the Rockford mining
district are of a very favorable char
acter. indicating that it will soon take
rank with the more advanced districts
Of the Hills IN its enlarged capacity as a
gold producing region.
II. A. Tortette, an old pioneer miner
of this place, now located in the north
ern Hills, recently sold his interest in
the Good Enough group of gold claims
i in the Two Bit district for a good
| figure. The claims, three in number
were among the oldest quartz locations
in the Hills, having been staked more
than 81 years ago. Patient waiting no

There is a gentleman now in the HIS
in the interest of English capitalists
who has been investigating free-miiling
gold veins in Pennington county, and
we are informed that his opinion OF the
property is favorable. The ground
looked over is said to show q vertical
ledge 200 feet wide, and will give a gold
content of s. to IS per ton.-Review

Edward Thomarson and VI. ID. Gehien,
prominent business men of lie Mars,
Iowa, departed for their home the latter
par. of last week, after having spent
several days in the inspection OF TIC
Lizzie group Of gold claims, located q
mile and a half northeast of this city, In
which property they some time ago
ACQUIRED a half interest. They were
much pleased with the outlook, and
greatly encouraged over the prospects
for the future success of their venture.
There has been considerable work per-
formed upon the property during the
past few months, including a unnei OIL
over a hundred feet in length, which
tapped the vein at 80 feet, encountering
a body of ore which promises to be OF
considerable magnitude, as it has al
ready been cut for a distance of about
10 feet without reaching the limit Of its
extent. Numerous tests of the ore
have been made, and while we have
been unable to learn the exact figures,
we are assured that all have been highly
satisfactory 10 the parties interested.

property to continue the tunnel until

New phases of tn. Evans Case.

A motion was argued before Judge
Gardner last week which may prove by
his decision to vitality affect the property
of the Dakota Hot Spcings company.
The decision grew out of a motion to
attach some of the company property to
satisfy a judgment against il for 5000
in favor Of II. ID. Jennings for medical
services. The court held that pending
appeal Jennings and Dudley were the
only bona fide directors and ordered the
property in question turned over to
them as such. This would tend to de.
pose the other three directors. In OPP
position to this the defense ask that
service be not granted and summon the
plaintiffs into court TO show cause why
the defense should not retain the prop

Four years ago WorkmeE boring for

were startled when, with a tre-
mendous rush and roar, dirt, sand
aud stones came flying up out of
the hole, but not biz OF water APP
peared. For three days no one would
approach the place, for, though the
shower OF dirt and stones ceased, and
no water, in fact, nothing visible, APP |
pearsd, the rushing. roaring sound |
continued. This was heard for miles |
and resembled that made by number
of locomotives all blowing off steam
at once. Al the end of this time il was
discovered that the noise wgs caused
by the rapid escape of natural earbonie
acid gas. The gas was brought under
control, and is now bottled for CONNER
eial purposes, and the well is the only
one OF the kind in the world.
The bottling of gas for transporta-
ton is somewhat different from the
bottling of liquid. The gas is sent
through iron pipes from the well to
/ condenser, where it passes through
/ succession of other pipes, each one in
turn COMPRISING it more than the last
and depriving 1t of more heat At
leLgth, having reached pressure of q
| thousand pounds to the square inch, it
is forced into iron cylinders about six
inches in diameter and somewhat more
than four feet in height. 1t is now of
IA consistency that would seem to be a
compromise between water and glyeer-
inc, with the blush east OF ordinary
gas. In these cylinders or iron bottles
it is ready for transportation.
An interesting way in which to see
the gas is to pour some of it from one
of the cylinders, at the same time con
verting it into a solid. This is done by
wrapping heavy cloths round the
mouth of the cylinder when the top il
unscrewed, thus preventing the too rap
id escape of the gas into the air. Buf
as water expands when il is converted
into ice. SO the rapid expansion of thu
gas, already deprived of its heat, causes
it to freeze, and on opening the clotl
there is found dry carbonic acid ga
converted into solid as white as snow
with the sparkle of crystals and ten
: perature of rs degrees below zero
When taken in the hand, it has the fee

3 object with which it comes in contat
it passes off as gas, leaving handke

which it may have been placed, pc
fectly dry.
Since the opening of the well the d
mand for the gas has been greater ths

Senator Mason presented in the
senate recently what is probably the
most remarkable petition ever laid
before congress in behalf of leg-
islative proposition. 1t was the
Chicago Records petition for the es-
tablishment of the postal saving bank
system, and bore the signatures of
every state and territory in the union
Alaska alone excepted. The largest
number of signers, as was to be ex-
ceptedfrom Illinois, ,thefgures for the
state, Chicago included, being 269,-
876. The vote of the state, Chicago
included, being 266, ,S75. The vote
of the state for president in 1896 was
1 ,090,869 More than one voter in
four in the state of Illinois, therefore
is a signer to the postal bank petition.
1t is interesting to note that Ohio,
