1t seems remarkable that chlurina
tion. which has been known for Il good
many years rs II successful method Of
treating gold-bcaring ores. was so long
in being introduced generally in gold
mining regions. Ii originated about
fifty wears ago. at the lrCihurg lni-
versty and was known for many
years as the Plattncr process, getting
its name from its discovcrcr. 1t was
ten wears after its discovery before ii
was Introduced in America, it being
then tried at Grass Valley. California,
where ii has been in use ever since.
1t WAS soon introduced in other places
in that state. and has been in constant
though not general Use there. Its sue
cess should have stamped ii as suitable
for use under many conditions. 1t
made its first appearance in Colorado
in Gilpin county. where II Mr.. Cash
tried il on n small scale, but failed
through not roasting the ore properly.
In 1870, II mill WAS erected on the Nj
Wut mine of Boulder county. 10 treat
tniliugs from the Nj Wot mill. and 1t
trcutrh over 300 tons being all the thil-
inns that there were nj the mill. saving
ninety-two per cent. OF TIE value.
There the first Bruckncr furnace ever
erected WAS used for roasting, Mr..
Br,lckncr the inventor starting II.
After treating the tailngs. the mine

doncd. In those days the old Ilattner
process was used. The gas was gen
Grated from common salt and piprd i'll
10 watts charged with ore. These watts
had false bottoms, through which the
leach water was strained into watts.
where the gold was prccipitatcd with
iron sulphatc This same old process
is still in use in California on II small
scale. The time required 10 treat Il
twO-tou charge in vat was ABOUT
thirty hours. Now the chloridizing is
done in barrels. holding six To ten tons,
and the chlorine gas is generated III the
barrel from chloride of lime. This
shortrns the time and chcapcns the
uroccss, though it Is doubtful il the
saving is much greater than by the old
method, when IL was perfectly con
ducted, Now the chlorination process
is in use in nearly every mining State
and Territory.
1t is noticeable that at the Mount
Morgan mine in Queensland where the
barrel method was used. 1t has been
discarded and watts are again used. The
reason given is better saving. though
If is snid that chlorine water instead
of ras is used.
To-day chlorination and cyanide
methods are both popular and success
full. There is an apparent revival OF
wet methods since the discovery of
cyanide, though few years ago they
were apparently falling into disrepute.

/ a good part of the work while the lady

Zarena arrived on time, and she was
the Frenchiest of the French, and more
beautiful even than Mr., Folsom's most

as she explained, she had "one little

Whatever that 'little trouble" was it
seemed to sit lightly on her head, for
she laughed as she explained.

essary. And the man had to do good
share of the act, but the great feature
