who was sinking we'll for the railroad

A Big Mill for kingman.

John Teller, representing San Fran
cisco company, having proposed to, the
people of Kingman that his company
would erect mill of 100 tons daily
capacity if the citizens would extend
to them certain courtesies, a meeting
was called to meet in Lake Hall last
Wednesday evening to discuss the
proposition. W. II. Taggart was elect
ed chairman and III. III. Watkins sec
retary. Mr.. Teller stated his PROPOSE
ton to the people, which was in effect
that his company would mill base ore
at a cost not to exceed l0S per ton and
would pay 80 per cent of assay value.
The citizens on their part we're to pro-
vide suitable site and a sufficient
volume of water for the purposes Of
the mill. This the people have agreed
to do, providing Mr.. Teller on his part
agrees that no greater charge than 10$
per ton be made for the treatment of
ore and that 80 per cent or better be
paid for all low grade ores.
The process to be put in by the Tel
Ter Company is new one and Mohave
county ores that were considered very
base were worked up to 90 per cent.
A. Yer Mehr, E. F. Thompson and
j. X. Russell were appointed a COM
mittee to select site for the mill. The
place selected il about one-half mile
southeast of town, but this may be
changed in the future.
Mr.. Teller left on Thursday after.

capacity of the mill will soon be in
creased by an additional battery Of
twenty stamps, aud the electric power
generated on the Arivaipa will be
transmitted some fifteen miles to run
mill and hoisting works. The build

provements proposed which will add
much to the taxable wealth Of our
county. When completed, more than

The life of the champagne manuiac-

age in the cellars and the leakage OF
the gas from the bottles. A French
scientist has devised plan for obviat-

and. if not too expensive, it might be
put into practical use with advantage
He covers the cork and the neck OF the
bottle with layer of copper, deposit

with black lead or zincpowder and then
placed in a bath and plated. After 1t

difficulty in plating on copper base
