A NEW FEATURE.

The new Cornish pump, cast and fin
ished at the Black Hawk foundry of Nc
Farlane & Co., has new feature, not
possessed by any similar pump in Colo.
rado, namely: 1t is equipped with steel
balance bobs. The pump rod, SxS, runs
on steel plates, the use of plates being
necessitated by the pitch of the vein
which is to the south. The pump at its
normal speed has capacity of 300 gal
Ions per minute, with four foot stroke
1t can be speeded up to 800 gallons per
minute. The fact is becoming more np.
parent every year that there is no neces
sity of sending out of the county or state
for mining machinery, as with the facili
ties now at hand, boilers, engines and
holsters can be manufactured here equal
in capacity and finish TO any that are
shipped here from the east. The finest
and smoothest running engine in Gilpin
county, is the Corliss engine in use at
the Chamberlain Sampling works in
Black Hawk, which was manufactured
by McFarlane IL Co., at their foundry in
Denver. A similar engine was built by
them in Denver in 1896 for the Coors
Brewing company Of Golden. The best
boilers in use here are those manufact.
ured mt the boiler works OF Stroehle Il
Sor, in Black Hawk.
