Shortly after noon brokers for the

selling May wheat earlier in the day,

big Cyanide Plant New Being Erected In
that Section of Idaho.
A. II. Alderman arrived from De
Lamar last evening. says the Boise
Statesman. He Is engaged In putting
up the teaching plant there Tor the De-
Lamar company. This plant VIII handle
from 100 to 200 tons of ore per day.
The teaching Is with cyanide solution
the precipitation being on zinc dust.
The advantages claimed for the new
process is that II will save a higher
percentage of the gold and do the work
at less cost. The saving in cost, MIR.
Alderman states. will be 50 per ton.
while the extraction Will be as high rs
so per cent. This estimate Is based on
n large number of experiments made
before the construction of the plant
was undertaken. The Old process of
amalgamatlon saved only from 40 to 10
per cent of gold. and the Pelatan-
Clerici process did no better and did
not effect any saving in cost.
The teaching tanks are being put in
the old mill. taking the places of pans
and settlers. II is expected the plant
will he In operation by the middle of
February, perhaps before.
Mr.. Alderman is here to meet Mrs.
Alderman, who Is coming from San
Francisco. He thinks II little un-
lucky that such spell of weather
should have come on Just at this time.
Gold from Florendc, Idaho.
A special from Spokane, Wash. to
the Boise Statesman says that three
hundred ounces of gold We're received
there Tuesday from the Banner mine
at Florence and sent to the United
States assay office at Boise. Unusual
interest attached to this production
as Florence in the early cos was one
of the richest placer fields ever dis
covered. At one time 10000 men
were in the camp and millions were
taken out in two or three years. The
gold received today Is from free mill
ing quartz Three mills have been
set up in the old camp the past year
and others are going in. 1t is pre-
dicted that the close of 1898 will see
25 stamp mills at work In there.

Spanish Sentiment Regarding the PHI

@ .L..U" - 49, HL .
1t is tolerably clear, from our examina-
ton Of a large numberof Spanish papers,
that-the colonies having become so.
serious a burden-the Spanish people
have made up their minds to loose them
all without much further display of oppo-
sition. Cuba has always been the one
outlying possession for which the Span
iards felt a strong attachment. Having
lost Cuba, and knowing that in any case
they are certain to loose Manila, they
look upon the whole series of beyond-sea
islands possessions as virtually surren-
dered. The Spanish commissioners at
Paris will doubtless make a great show
of haggling about the Philippines, but it
will only be for the sake of gaining adj
vantages of detail in the working out of
the treaty. If possible, in compensation
for the Philippines, they will endeavor to
devolve upon Cuba or this country a part
of the SO called Cuban debt, and they will
also try to make saving stipulations re-
garding the vast property holdings of the
monastic orders in the Philippines. But
there remains no considerable body of
public sentiment in Spain that demands
the retention of sovereign rights over any
portion of the Philippines Islands. The
inevitable has already been accepted

Revealing the Secret of Its Two Trips
Around q Table.
"A number Of literary men were at one
time gathered in a we'll known chop
house in New York. The conversation
was of course brilliant, and the repartee
sparkled with mirth and wit. During q
lull in the talk the door slowly opened,
and an old southern darby, grizzled
with age, poked his head in and then
slowly drew his body in after him. A
waiter started to eject him, when one
of the gentlemen cried:
. "Wait a moment. Let's see what the
old boy wants"
The darby bobbed up to the table
where this gentleman sat and held out
his hat. Throwing a wink to his neigh
bors, the gentleman took the hat and,
making a show Of placing something
into it, passed 1t on to the next man,
who did likewise. The hat made a tour
Of the room, to the puzzled wonder Of
the darby. The last to receive it SOL
emily handed it back with a polite
bow, saying:
"There, sir, don'tyou think you have
something to be thankful for2"
The old darby looked solemnly around
the company and, mechanically taking
the hat, he said:
"Gen'men, TIE indeed glad dat I got
chen de hat baok!"
The reply was 90 thoroughly enjoyed
by the company that the darby left the
nlaca a mnoh richer man than when he
had entered it.-Kansas City World.
