THE STATE EAIR.

\ better day could not have been
desired for Il fair than Saturday. 1t
was a fair day in every sense of the
word, and undoubtedly the members
of the North Dakota Fair Association
were well pleased.
President Harmon hangs to it that
it has been the best fair ever held i'll
Mandan, and he is generally sup.
ported in this opinion by the visitors
who have helped make it so.

SOME OF M|CH|GAN'S FAMOUS MINES
What the Standards Special Correspondent Has to Re-
port in Regard to Leading Properties in That
Famous Copper Field.

Royale has begun building railroad
three miles in length to connect the
mine with the millsite at the mouth
of the Pilgrim river, and work on the
construction of the stamp mill is to be
begun this season.
One head at the Atlantic mill is
treating about 200 tons of Baltic rock
daily and securing an average return
of about l per cent. mineral. In addi-
ton to the mineral secured at the
stamp mill a considerable quantity of
mass and barrel copper is also being
obtained, which must be added to the
stamp copper before the actual per-
centage being returned by the Baltic
can be determined.
1t is rumored, though on what au-
thority cannot be stated, that an ami
cable settlement will soon be arrived
at between the Franklin and Pewabc
companies. The Pewabc, formerly an
independent mine, but for the past six
years portion of the Quincy, was
operated under the same management
as the Franklin for some 80 years and
the INTERPRETATIONS became somewhat
complicated. A Judgment against the
Franklin for $201 900 was rendered in
the federal court at Cincinnati several
years ago, but it is not thought that
this judgment will stand. as in the
opinion of those best posted it is eX-
cessive. Explorations are now under
way on Isle Royale, In charge of ia
cob Houghton, who has been at work
on that island in the past The finan-
cial backing is being furnished by
General Alger, Col. Frank Hecker and
other wealthy men of Detroit.

IMPROVING THE WORKS
demonstrating Various Ma
chimes at Smelling Plant.
IMMENSE COPPER OUTPUT
About Nine Million Pounds Being Turned
Out Every Month-Many Visl-
tors at the Works This
Season.

Minor improvements are being made
at the works of the Anaconda Copper
Mining company in Anaconda which
will result in slightly increasing the
amount of output. These improvements
consist in the reconstruction of concen-
traitor tables and jigs. Several new
crushers, rolls and grinders are being
built to replace old ones. While not
of especial Importance in themselves,
these improvements show the works
are to be run to their capacity.
The works are now running about
the average output. There has been
no material increase or decrease for
several months. The monthly output
of copper is about 100000 pounds, or
a total Of los, 900 pounds year, or.
in tons, $500 tons of copper a month,
or $4,000 tons a year, the greatest out
put of any similar plant in the world.
The ores also carry good values in gold
and silver.
An average of l, 200 men is now en-
plOyed at the shelters and works. This
force, as is natural, varies from time
to time, but is now slightly on the in
crease.
About 140 cars Of ore are handled
every day, they coming from the same
properties which have heretofore sup
eral office yesterday developed the fact
that no new ores have been received,
and that the rumor that Parrot ores
are being smelted there is unfounded.
This is the season of tourist visitors
to the works. In the last few weeks
they have been more numerous than
usual. Among them have been several
distinguished visitors. Wataru Wata-
nabe, professor of mining and metal
lurgy in the engineering college of the
Imperial Japanese university at Tokyo,
was an interested visitor at the works
last week. Professors of mining and
mining engineering from Cornell and
the Stanford university have also gone
through the works recently.
Yesterday First Lieut.. John V. Green
of the 34th United States volunteer
infantry, now being organized at Fort
Logan, Colo. went through the works,
accompanied by a party of students
from the University of Wisconsin.
Parties composed largely of ladies
come over frequently from Butte to
view the great plant in operation.

Copper i'll Wyoming.

A correspondent of the Denver Min
ing Record, writing from Grand En-
Campment, WyO., says:
One of the many mining districts sur
rounding this place which seems to be
attracting special attention is the Min
ers' Creek district This is probably
due to the amount of development work
of a substantial nature that is being
done ON various claims, some Of which
will undoubtedly make shippers in the
near future.
GarrOutt, is one of the most promising.
Mr.. GaIrOutt has run a cr0ss-Cut tun-
mel over 40 feet and at the present
writing he has Just reached one side OF
the vein. Just how wide the vein is
at this point he does not know. The
ore is jasper quartz, containing crys-
taliZed copper and copper glance, and
looks to be very rich ore.
One other promising prospect is the
Little Marion, which is now IS feet
deep. From an assay al 20 feet deep
they obtained the very flattering result
of so per cent in copper and about 81 in
gold. The present owners have given
an option on this property to a Michi-
gan company. who have also an option
on six adjoining claims. 1t has been
learned that a favorable report will
be made by their experts who examined
these properties. and that they propose
10 push development just as soon as
the deal can be closed.

Butte Men Buy a Nevada Mine.

On the Goth inst. A. H. Wethey and
William Thompson, of the Thompson
Investment company, left Butte for
Salt Lake City to complete the pur-
chase of the April Fool mine at De
Lamar, Nevada. This is supposed to
be a very valuable property. 1t imme-
diately adjoins the De Lamar mine,
which is turning out 800 tons of ore
a day. The values are in gold. The
mine has thus far been operated eX-
clusively through tunnels, and has al
ready, it is said, yielded some hun
dreds of thousands of dollars, all the
ore having been taken out from above
the tunnels There is a mill connected
with the mine. Ten stamps are now
working. while the tailings are being
treated by the cyanide process. 1t is
the purpose of the new owners to at
once enlarge the mill and install a
hosting engine at the mine. There
is said to be a large quantity of pay
ore in sight and the purchasers are
greatly elated at the outlook. The deal
is being made for Butte parties chiefly,
Wethey, Thompson, John Forbis, Jack
Leggitt and others having interests.
Connected with them is Mr.. McCor-
nick, the wealthy Salt Lake banker.
These gentlemen may be sure of a cor
dial welcome and the best Of treatment
in southeastern Nevada.

inches. This piping costs about s4.5b
foot, and the expense of placing it
runs the total cost up to IS or 50 a
foot. As the average life of the pipe
is only few months, probably from
six to eight. the enormous expense in
volved can easily be imagined. 1t will
be understood, of course, that the rap
id destruction of the pipe is owing to
the action of the sulphuric acid with
which the water is charged. 1t is the
outside of the pipe that is eaten away
by the drip coming in contact with
the unprotected iron.
When running at full capacity this
group of mines employs about 1000
men, which is itself the working force
of a good sized city. And yet, as al
ready stated, it is only about half
of the Anaconda company's mining
property in the Butte district alone.

The Years Mineral Product.

The figures given by the Engineer
ing and Mining Journal show that the
total value of the mineral production
Of the United States in 1898 was $780,
sic. $50. against $64S. S04S99 in 1897. The
production includes S65,0S2, 440 in gold
and IS. 76S127 ounces of silver.
The coal production was 2lS106,559
short tons, an increase of 173, 900 tons
over any previous year. The pig iron
production was 11.773,9 S4 tons, the
greatest quantity ever made in any
country in one year
The copper production was 535. 900, 232
pounds, also the largest ever reported
and considerably more than half of the
entire production of the world.
Other leading tins were: AIS
short tons of lead; 114,104 snort tons of
zinc, 80, 400 TASKS of quicksilver; ST.
ia, 465 barrels of petroleum.
Besides the production from native
ores, there were SO, O24,960 gold 80 74S,-
900 ounces of silver, 36,055, 352 pounds of
copper 50 ,209 tons of lead and 1927. 1874
pounds of nickel refined and prepared
for market in this country from foreign
ores and base bullion.

EXCITEMENT AT BOISE.


Special Correspondence of the Standard.
Boise, July 30.-Something of a sensa-
ton has been created in Boise by the
news of a strike of quartz on Badger
Creek, which empties into the Boise
river about three miles this side of
Twin Springs. The discovery was made
by prospector named Frank Bryant at
a point on the creek about three miles
from its mouth A large number of
people struck out yesterday for the
scene of the new discovery, and others
are to follow to-day. The strike is al
legged to be a rich one, some claiming
that it is the biggest ever made in the
history of the state
1t is understood that r. X. Anderson,
manager of the Twin Springs company,
has taken options on 10 of the claims
for his company, which embrace the
best locations. 1t Is said that he has
had 100 assays made, which run all the
way from $50 to $l33 a ton. One pound
of the ore from the original discovery,
it is claimed, yielded $50 in gold By
this time a swarm of people are on the
ground, which is only about 40 miles
from Boise.
One important discovery covers two
veins, which are about six feet wide
and 300 feet apart, running east and
west.
In the south vein gold predominates.
and from it most of the samples were
taken for assays. In the north vein
silver preponderates, but it also car
ries a large percentage of lead. The
assays average 80 per cent lead and so
ounces of silver to the ton. 1t is the
gold vein, however, that caused the
sensation.
1t will be understood, of course, that
these matters are given merely as news,
and with no purpose of stating positive
ly the extent and value of the discov-
cry. 1t requires a great deal Of devel-
opment work to fully establish the
value of almost any mining claim, and
especially of a quartz lode.
Still the reports are of character
to leave no reasonable doubt that the
indications are exceedingly good.
News from the Seven Devils is to the
effect that the Iron Duke mine, be-
longing to the Northwest Copper COM
pany, has shut down, with its employees
in possession. For three months there
has not been a pay day, and the men
employed in the mine concluded to take
possession of the property until such
time as they would see the color of some
pay. Two guards We're placed over the
property in the day and two at night.
For an extra precautton the men drilled
a hole in some rock near the mine and
loaded it with powder. cap and fuse
This they intend to touch off if any at
tempt is made by the management to
regain possession of the mine, as sig
nal to the rest to fall into line. a clash
is expected at any time.

A Rare Mineral Discovery,

The Denver Republican states tina.
lessees working in the Leadville gold
belt recently discovered a peculiar sub
stance which they took to an assayer
who pronounced it to be vanadium.
When they learned that vanadium was
worth $50 per ounce. they began to
speculate on amasSing a large fortune
in a few months from their mine. but
the demand for this mineral is hardly
large enough to justify such eXpecta-
tionS.
Nanadium is an element whose COM
binatiOnS seems to be widely distri-
buted, although occurring only in small
quantity. The most abundant vanad-
ium mineral is Vanadinite, which is q
vanadate of lead, with chloride of lead,
and has been found in numerous wide
ly separated localities. Vanadium was
first discovered by Del Rio, in 1901, in a
lead ore from Mexico. He called it
erythronium, because its salts became
red when heated with acids. This sup
posed new metal was not accepted by
chemists and Del Rios name was
dropped. Later, in 1880, Gefstrom de-
scribed a new metal from Taberg, in
Sweden, for which he proposed the
name af Vanadium, and Immediately
after it was shown by Wohler that Del
Rios ore was in fact a vanadate of lead.
Metallic Vanadium, as prepared by
reducing the chloride in hydrogen gas,
is a light gray powder which, under
the microscope, has a brilliant SilVery
lustre. 1t has a specific gravity of 90,
it is very little acted on by air or mois-
ture at the ordinary temperature, is
easily dissolved in nitric acid, but is
not at all acted on by hydroChloric acid
and is affected by strong sulphuric acid
only when heated. Nanadium bronze,
a fine yellow pigment employed in the
place of gold bronze, is an acid deriVa-
tive of vanadium.
