SENSIBLE SUGGESTIONS.

But those who invest in mines may ask whether 1 would deny that there are men of such ability and experience that they can come to safe conclusions al to the prospective value of a mine from the character of the ore. To this I would answer thal I know of no such short cuts to the valuation Of mines. A mcil and a 4-pound hammer are of more use than a book full of sounding theories; 9 careful sampling of the workings is Of more immediate utility than treatiss on mineralogy. Sue ceSsful mining must be based Cn facts and all the rhetoric and fond imagin- ing in the world cannot alter them. It is the province Of the mining engineer to determine the facts, to get alon gSide them, as Huxley would say, and when a theory comes floating by leave it. as Joseph left his coat in the hands of the harlot, and flee. Experience has prov ed that indicative minerals are delu- sive; so let them go. But the mineral contents of an ore, though they have no bearing on the mining, decide it's metallurgical treatment. and, there fore, need careful examination. The importance of the character of the ere from this point of view is too often overlooked by those enthusiastic min eralogists who permit themselves to make the most sweeping deductions > on matters of much greater uncer tainty.
 Careful sampiing is worth a bushel Of suppositions, and che painstaking determination of the working costs is better than any amount of geological generalization. Mining is not a sci entli1c pursuit, although at times 1. may be observant have seemed to be either that or one big insanity. But mining is an industry. The good sense which financial men have Of late contributed to it's operations have done much to bring it from a windy mistiness to the solid footing of a sound business. The main purpose is not to develop the waste places of the earth, nor to spoil the scenery of the mountainous ones, but simply to win profit by extracting ores out of the ground. It is plain matter of profit and loss. On the one side is the value of the gold in the one, and on the other is the cost of the processes needed to obtain it. To arrive at the former there is only one way-namely, to sam pie the workings systematically. The result will be reliable in proportion to the care taken. Any shirking of diff cult places in the mine, any avoidance of hard portions of the vein, any assis- tance from untrustyorthy hands, will
Arizona republican., 1898-08-02

vitiate the result. Against this must be placed the costs of operation. Here it is that experience is needed. The sampling is largely mechanical, like assaying, and requires patience and care more than anything else. In the estimae of the costs there have to be included many items of expenditure, such as the breaking of the ore, the development work, the equipment, the milling, the management; and to ar rive at these the previous mutual charge of mines is the only proper preparation. Then comes the question of the quantity of ore available, or likely to become available, by further exploration. This is the pons ansin- orum of mining. That which some de scribe as ore in sight is often really ore out of sight. The over sanguine estimation of ore reserves has ruined more enterprises than all bad manage ment and over capitalization of which complaints are daily made. It is ever a difficult job and requires cool judg- ment, wide experience and a careful investigation into the circumstances and structure of each particular mine.
 When the value and tonnage of the ore available have been arrived at, and when working costs have been deter mined, then the engineer has nine tenths of the evidence needed to sub nit to the client whom he is advising. The other data which will influence are more uncertain in their character, The geological considerations may eff feet the cost of mining, and the min eralOgical the cost of milling As such they must not be overlooked, but the padding of report with a large amount of geological disquisition, where it is not immediately ad rem, is very nearly an impertinence, seeing that it is not expected that it will be understood by the person or persons for whose guidance the report is writ ten--From paper read by T.

SILVER KING BASIN.

The resplitic tufts did not reach the southern and the highest part Of the four peaks of the Silver King basin, nor did the overflow of lava rent right across the south ring in big masses. Southerly into the Providence mine, also on the western side on the east of the Silver King mine and on the east side-end lines of the south of the Silver King mine to the east of the Neocene divide, rising along the east ern margin of the Silver Kings basin tract, the respletic flows again appear having reached there from the vicinity. From the group of mines the South Comstock is in the divide, and was, however, just high enough to prevent this overf1owing into the West Com stock on the western boundaries, as may be seen by trailing the contacts of antecede and resplitide. The sur face was not even but subjected to some eroding action in the interval between the two eruptions, but it was not extensive enough to produce any marked change, in fact those intervol- canic channels cutting far. down into the resplitic and even into the underly- ing bedrock which are so characteris- tic of the vicinity of the Silver King basin. aA y4.
 In the drainage of the Neocene the lava is plainly to be seen, on the Cali fornia and Ophir mines it is practically absent and in the main channel seuth- east from the Silver King basin, on the headcrateTs of the southeast side Of rock, fiat on the north of the Andes, near the east of the King mine, they appear again. This is evidently caus- ed by differing time interval between the two eruptions in the vicinity Of the Silver King basin, southeriy the frs ankerite flow from the peaks about the Black Demon mines volcanoes follow ed closely after the last eruption of re- splitlc turf. During the latter part of the resplitic period the drainage was partly changed. The great Neocene geographic movement of the Silver King basin probably took place be- tween the respl1tic and ankerne erup- tions, as is evidenced by the intensely eroding character of the lime cliff or intervolcanic channel
 Right about the Silver King mine to the east tilting took place elevating the eastern part of the range most strongly and the western part but little. Flows of ankerite turf, emerg- ing from the craters around, poured down the Hanks from the peaks, east about the Silver King mine, in rapid succession, Cbliterating the old drain age and flooding many Of the divides between the Borlien and the group of mines on the South Comstock, emerging from the desolate lava pla- teau in the vicinity. In the Silver King basin declined lava is plainly to be seen in the gulches; along from the Silver King basin, northeast to south, new courses, in general differing con- siderably from the old ones, can be found. The present drainage, which was developed, is characterized more than the Neocene by transverse di- rection from Silver King basin to the southwest.-W. H. Lempker, N. E., -! Florence Tribune.

absence of elght-inch guns means
sacrifice of offensive power, but there
is a corresponding gain in armor pro-
lection and in general simplicity. The

handing officers say they would rather
take their chances on an open bridge
than to occupy one of the alleged Con
ming towers"
The smoke pipe passes up through
the center Of the tower and receives
protection from it. The smokepipe is
utilized as a mast, and carries the usual
fighting top and signal yard. The top
OF the smoke pipe is 100 feet above the
water line, and as the fighting top is
fifteen feet below the smoke outlet, the
men at the top guns ought not to suffer
any discomfort from smoke. The bar
bettes and coming tower rest on the
main deck, which is two inches thick.
The side armor Is continuous and has
mean thickness Of twenty inches, twen-
ty-four inches amidships, tapering to
sixteen inches at the ends. The depth
Of side armor is six and one-half feet.
The thickness Of armor on turrets, bar
bettes, and coming tower is twenty
inches.
The length of the vessel on water
line Is 300 feet; beam, seventy feet;
draught forward and aft, twenty and
one-half feet; displacement, about g.
900 tons; twin screw; indicated horse

one-half knots per hour; coal capacity,
500 tons; main battery, four twelve

The sketch represents the ship clear
ed for action, the boats at other times
being stored on the superstructure. The
presence Of a superstructure amidships
adds much to the comfort Of mont
tors crew and does not increase her
size as a target, as bridges and other
gear would incumber the space between
the turrets and give the enemy as good
a mark as does a superstructure. This
point is illustrated by comparison Of
the Minantonomah and the Amphitrite,
the former having no superstructure.
