THE NEW sAmPLING PLANT.

The Works Will Commence Active
Operations Monday Morning.
The Eureka sampling Works. situated
al the old Eureka Consolidated smelser, lie
now ready 10 sample aud purchase ores.
aud the long forgotten blast Of the whistle
st the works will gladden. our ears and
hearts onoe more.
Mr.. Oscar J. Smith has leased the plant
and will conduct the business Of buying
ores, concentrates, and all GLASSES OF min
eral sndsmilling products. His brother,
Bert l.. Smith, who has had 9 large ex-
perience in the business, will be In charge
as manager.
Our miners can now get their money
for their ores, and have the satisfaction Of
a personal supervision OF the ssmplIng,
without waiting the Two or three weeks
that have been required TO get their re-
turns from Salt Lake or San Francisco.
We are informed that the prices will be

ping expenses added, depending on the
size Of the lots and the character OF the
ores sold. Lots Of any size from one sack
up will be bought. This latter feature
will certainly be a great convenience 70
the small shippers, and the other sdvan-
tsges offered will prove the same to the
larger ones.
Ores will be received in bulk from such
as care to ship that way. and this will be
o considerable convenience and saving 10
such OF our miners as are situated so that
they can ship in bulk and avoid the ex.
pense Of sscking.
Ores are already arriving at the works.
and by Monday morning the work Of
ssmpling will commence, and we hope the
boilers may never be ALLOW ed to get cold,
and that our miners will lend their hearth
est support in making this new venture 9
success.

There are now about 90 wholesale
commission dealers in cut flowers in the
city. The first dealer in this business
started aboat IS years ago. Before that
retail florists who did not raise their
own flowers sent TO the greenhouses of
the growers for them. Now nearly all
florists buy Of the wholesale commission
dealers in the city.
The flowers sold in this city are grown
in New Jersey, and on Long Island and
at some other points in this state They
are brought here by express packed in
boxes constructed for the purpose. The
busy part Of the day in the wholesale
flower establishments is from 8 O'Clock
in the morning. at about which time
the flowers arrive, until about noon.
The customers Of the wholesale dealer
include not only city florists, but also
florists in many places within 20 miles
around New York. and flowers are often
shipped from here TO points much more

CONTEMPORARY OPINION.


HOW LONG WILL THE STEEL
FRAMES OF TALL BUILDINGS
LAST?
What Is occurring or what will occur
to the metallic portions of the many
tall buildings that are in process of
erection at the present time, under
great dissimilarity as regards tempera-
ture, humidity. and other climatic con-
ditlOns, but of one characteristic same
ness, viz. being sealed in solid masonry
or other coverings beyond the ken
Of inspection? Probably no engineer
ing question to-day is entitled to more
serious consideration than this one. In
discussing it recently before the Ameri-
can society of mechanical engineers, a
member maintained that while inspec-
tion of some of the buildings now in
progress, as we'll as some of those lately
erected, reveals possibly a slight i'm
provement in the means of preservation
adopted over those apparent a short
time ago, yet the Improvement is a hol-
low mockery and will bear fruit for re-
pentance before many years have pass
ed. These structures, though more
carefully painted than those erected be-
fore, with more and heavier coatings
not appear in a single case to have re-
ceived any attention or consideration
as to the condition Of the metallic sur
faces before applying the protective
coating beyond a possible sweep with a
dirty broom TO get rid of the rough
dirt from the workshop yard, and a
possible wipe with a piece of old sack
ing to remove the grease due to ma
Ginning processes. There has been
nothing like washing down Of the
parts with soda ash or lye water to re-
move the grease, and then picking
with weak acid to remove the mill
scale, and a subsequent washing with
lime water to neutralize the acid bath,
warming the work before painting it,
and taking care to apply the paint only
on clear, bright days, when no sweating
can occur or applying the paint in
warm paint rooms. II is safe to say
that not in a single case out of the
many skeleton structures of modern
sky-scrapers can this be found to have
been the procedure There would seem
TO be no better possible assurance than
all this of trouble ahead for coming
generations.-Cassier's Magazine.

ANolNTMENT All coRoMATIoNs.

Popularity of the Russian Ceremony
Said 10 70 Very Important.
1t is not generally known that the rite
of coronation in the Russo-Greek church
agrees with the religious ceremony Of
an English coronation IN one very i'm
portant particular or that this resem-
blance distinguishes the coronation serv-
ices of England and Russia from those
Of all other countries.
The identity of ceremonial cons SITS in
the use Of the holy chrism, or
"cream, - in the anointment of the SOW
ereign. In the Roman rite, at the coro-
nations of the old emperors Of Germany
that is to'say, of the holy Roman en-
pire, to which Austria, in sense, has
succeeded-not the schism, but the in
ferior oil Of the catechumens. or candi-
dates for baptism, is employed. In the
eastern rite, on the contrary, the chrism
is used.
This chris1n is understood to bcstcw
"a character, " to use a theological term,
upon the recipient--in other words. 1t
imparts certain gifts CT the Holy Ghost
not exactly of a saccrdOtal character, for
it is not used in the east for the ordina-
ton of bishops or priests, but nevcrthe-
less a special gift from on high, which
is indefeasible in him who receives 1T,
and which, so long as lie corresponds
with divine grace, gives him supernat-
ural sacramental grace to fulfil the du-
ties of his high office
This is the meaning Of the words 1.-THE
seal Of the gift of the Holy Ghost" used
at the confirmation cf child in the
east Immediately after its baptism, and
the same words are again used when
the emperor is again anointed at his cor
onation. 1t is in the case Of the emperor
alone that a man is ever anointcd IN the
east more than once in his life As al.
ready stated, the chrism has never been
used in the conservation Of bishops, as
it is in the greater part of the west
Now IL is a very interesting point tC
notice that the only country in the world
besides Russia in which at the present
day the sovereign is anointed Will
chrism is England. This used also to be
the case in France, but Of course the
French monarchy is now a thing of the
past. In learned paper by DR.. Wick

pamphlet printed in 1919 upon the man
ner Of crowning the emperor, in which
it is stated that, whereas the kings oi
