GRAVEL OF ARKANSAW FLAT.
AN OLD MINING LOCALITY TO
BE REOPENED.
H. F. Byam's Plan for Working
the Deep Gravel Deposits
There.

II. F. Byam, who some time since as
Ritter's large mining interests in the
vicinity of Michigan Bar, in the east
ern part of this county, has completed
arrangements for working the extreme
ly rich gravel deposits at Arkansaw
Flats, about midway between Michigan
Bar and Forest Home, in Amador
County.
In the early fifties fortunes were
taken out of the claims at Arkansaw
Flats, and at one time the population
of the camp was estimated at 1000.
But Arkansaw Creek was ever a prob
lem to placer miners. 1t had a fall Of
only few feet to the mile, and before
half Of the riches of the neighboring
deposits had been taken out the creek
proper was so filled. in that without
the use of expensive elevators bedrock
could not be reached
Only a few years ago H R. Thomas
attempted to work the Arkansav Flat
property, but the elevator or lift he
had prepared proved inadequate and
his effort resulted in failure
| Mr. Byam is one of the oldest and
OcSl H. I'll ullC lIilIiSIS III the soldl S, dllu
besides knowing every foot of the
property, he is accredited with never
having managed a mining operation
that failed. He has prepared a mon
ster elevator which will easily raise
water and tailings nine feet, and by so
doing the problem of dump room will
have been solved.
Mr. Byam, for Madame Ritter recent
ly purchased the Fahrnbaker property
mile below Arkansaw Flats, and has
constructed thereon two gravel dams
and one of concrete, which have been
inspected and approved by the Debris
Commissioners.
AS matter of fact all the gravel
from the mine will stay at, or above,
the Fahrnbaker ranch, and at the lat
ter point the water used is taken up in
the Lamb Ditch and conveyed thence
to the rich sections along the Costumes
River Valley, where it will be used for
irrigation purposes.
Mr.. Byam will begin operations at
Arkansaw Flats in a few days, and
with his experience and superior knowl-
edge of engineering and practical min
ing, the people residing in the vicinity

pect to see him succeed. Indeed, the
miners of that section are we'll pleased
that Mrs. Ritter has again assumed
charge of her property, and with the
present manager in command they ex-
pect steady employment and are as
sured of receiving their wages prompt
ly, which has not always been the case
within the past few years.
There is little doubt but the gravel
deposits at Arkansaw Flat are among
the richest in the State, and thousands
of dollars have heretofore been sunk
in the attempt to bottom them.

FITTED FOR FIRE ALARMS.
IMPROVEMENTS TO THE HOOK
AND LADDER HOUSE.
How the Hardy Firemen Will Make
Ready to Run to
Fires.

For the purpose Of making room Tor
the new chemical engine, important
improvements have been made to the
hook and ladder house on Sixth street.
The building was not deep enough for
both the hook and-ladder truck and
the chemical engine, so Chief Engineer
Guthrie prepared plans for lengthenlns
1t out The wall which separated the
hay department from the truck was
taken down, frightening the room some
fourteen feet, and a place overhead
was prepared for the hay. The truck
can now be run to the back part of the
room, where there is a stall on each
side for the horses belonging to it. The
chemical engine will be near the front
door, and two stalls have also been
provided for it's horses. Holes have
been cut through the ceiling, and two
posts will be set upright down which
the firemen can slide when the alarm
Is given, to the lower story, thus saving
the time that would be consumed in
running downstairs. This is the
method in vogue in San Francisco and
the Eastern cities. One of the posts is
near the chemical engine. and the other
beside the hook-and-ladder truck.
When the gong strikes it releases a
weight that opens. by means of ropes
running over pulleys, the doors of the
four stalls of the horses. BY the time
the men have jumped out of bed and
Slid down the posts, which it is ex-
pected will take twenty seconds. the
horses will be in their respective places,
ready for the harness to be lowered on
their backs.
Upstairs is a room fitted up. contain
ing bath, a stationary wash basin
and closet. In an adjoining room is the
hay, with a chute to drop it to the
lower floor. There is also a sitting
room, where the men can make them
selves comfortable and read or pass
away the time in some Other manner.
Adjoining this room is the dormitory.
fitted up with lockers, where the men
will sleep. and through the floor of
which the two posts will project, giving
access to the lower floor
When all the arrangements are COM
plete the men will be drilled by Chief
Guthrie as they are in other cities, and
it is surprising how short time will
soon elapse after the alarm before they
Will be at their posts. With the five
men, the chemical engine and the hook
and-ladder truck, there is practically a
complete, department under one roof,
ready at a signal to be off and do battle
with the flames

liable to have very serious effects If
children were properly instructed in the

A Bad Practice That Could be
Easily Corrected.

1t has been suggested that, as chill
dren are the main offenders in the
matter of throwing banana and orange
peel on the sidewalks, through thought
lessness, of course, it would not be a
bad idea for teachers in our public
schools to spend a few minutes in
placing before all the pupils the danger
of the practice, both to themselves and
their companions and to older pedes-
TRANS.
Children on their way to and from
school run and play a great deal. and
at such times do not pick their steps.
