NEWsOME PLACER.
Great Unknown Sold to Young
4 Turner.

Frank ShlSSler, f1arry oniSS-
Ter, N. B. Pettibone. and A.
w. Davis have sold to Young
& Turner, the we'll known
mining operators Of Buffalo
Hump, the placer property
located on Newsome creek,
"A mile below the Newsome
House, known as the Great
Unknown placer. The prop
erty consists Of 100 acres Of
placer ground covering an old
river channel, with depth of
gravel varying from 40 to IS
feet in depth, which prospects
we'll from top to bottom, and
is undoubtedly as good Il
placer proposition as can be
found in any country. The
ground was mined in carly
days to a limited extent, but
no work was done to explore
the old channel, as the old-time
miners were after shallow
diggings, and all their work
was confined to washing gold
off the rimrock where good
pay was found.
The property was reported
on for the purchasers by John
Davis and found to be better
than represented, SO the deal
was speedily closed. The
new owners intend to enlarge
the two bitches which 60 with
the property, and which bring
in water from Pilot creek, and
will give them a capacity of
carrying 1000 inches, with
400 feet of pressure. 1t is
expected that this work will
be done this winter SO as to
start up hydraulic operations
when the water begins 10 run
in the spring.
Fred Smith & Co. have
started on the work of build
ing the bedrock tlume from
the mouth Of Newsome creek
to open up their rich ground
on that stream some four miles
from its mouth. Some partic-
ulars were given of this enter
prise in our Newsome cores
pondence last week. The
ground Immediately below
and adjoining has been sold to
a company who have incorpor-
ated under the name of the
Newsome 4 Legget creeks
hydraulic mining Co., limited,
with a capital of $4,000
divided into shares of the par
value of FIVE cents each. The
principal place of business of
the company is Lewiston, and
the directors for the first year
are: w. w. Browa, Fred
Smith and Chas. H. Harding,
of Grangeville, and George A.
Smith and Z. w. Colby of
Lewiston.
This company owns about
six miles of the bed of New.

enough to last a century.

REMOVING WOOL FRori SKINS.
An Electrically Heated pI,,o D
the Work with Nentne.u
and Dispatch.

1t has always been a problem how to
get the wool off the skins of the many
millions of sheep which are annually
slaughtered in Australia, South Amer
lea and on the continent of Europe. An
electrical apparatus for the purpose has
been patented, says the ST. Louis Globe
Democrat. The invention, the first
idea of which is said to have been
struck by lady, consists of an electric
cautery or fleshing knife, by which the
wool may be shorn from the skin rapid
~ and without injury either to the wool
or the pelt. The knife has a very short
and very wide blade, which is fitted on
handle electrical lily connected. 10 re-
move the wool the cautery is simply
pushed along the surface of the skin.
The red-hot knife instantly mows down
the wool, and the speed at which the
work can be done is governed by the
dettness of the operator. The heat need
not affect either the skin or the wool.
provided that the knife is properly
manipulated. With few hours prac-
tice, 1T is estimated, n girl can dewool
from eight to dozen skins per hour,
and the cost of the current should he
not greater than one cent for 1S hours
work. The advantages of the system
are that the wool need not be injured
by lime, chemicals or other deleterious
influences, and the mere singing of the
end Of each fiber is imperccptible. Its
claimed that the skin, which presum-
ably has been sun dried in Australia or
South America, Immediately after the
slaughtering of the sheep, is in more
perfect condition for the purposes Of
the tanner. The estimate of the cost of
such operations shows the great econ
omy of the electrical method of de-
"ooling. 1t now costs the fellmongcr
eight cents SKIN to wet down, lime
stone, or sweat the skin into condition
for the puller. and the pulling wages
range from II cents to II cents per doz-
EN- skins.

A BUSINESSL!KE WOMAN.
One Who EaEdly Proved Her Sex

DR.. Nathan Wood told a good story
of womnn's capability for business at
the annual meeting of the Woman's
Suffrage Association of New England.
He said
81 happen to be trustee of Vassar
college. At first l shared with all my
fellows the old-time feeling about it's
not being quite possible for women to
be digniiied and intelligent in business
matters of corporation charged with
the management of great institution.
| we'll remember when the alumna OF
Vassar finally persuaded the trustees
to let them nominate three women to
be fellow trustees with us. There were
y of us on that board Of trustees, and
all Of them except the present speaker
were very distinguished gentlemen.
I'VE had before usa grave problem, as
the city Of Poughkeepsie had de-
termined that we must do something
about the sewerage of the college. We
had spent money and money and money
in endeavoring to remedy it's defects,
but the city still followed us up and
threatened us with suits. The mat
ter was brought up in the board Of trus-
tees, and we were at our wits end,
when woman got up in the board, and,
in very simple and modest fashion,
*hc said: "Gcntlcmcn, think il you
would follow this plan you would sue
""c!.' aud she went on and outlined a
"lan in detail, giving us specifications,
"rofnlIc cost, probable amount of
'.'"". iu2t what would need to be done,
ali in lhC most mcthodical and business
like and cIcar fashion that you can i'm
aBinc. We all gasped. We saw at onco
that she knew what she was doing and,
that she was talking from actual knowl-
edge OF the facts, and we adopted her
plan. That woman was Mrs. Ellen II.

he received at the hands OF his fellow

only representative of West Virginia
in the United States Navy, and IS gen.
orally, We believe, a very good sort Of
a fellow, but so far as any distinguish

a description OF the weapon the Bal

the flagship New York in the fore

well enough as far as 1t goes, we would
have suggested with the flagship New
