The Selection Of q MlIl Site.

When determining upon the location
of mill or other machinery for the
benefciation of ore, the surroundings
should be studied in reference to the
economy of transportation and treat
ment. The mill should be placed where
the ore can be delivered from the mine
into its highest portion, above the bins,
without the necessity of hauling the
ore up an incline as is often seen, and
that, too, where it could have been
avoided. The mill should be furnish
ed with every mechanical device which
will reduce the expense of manipula-
from one process to another by gravity
Water is an important consideration
and the mill must have liberal supply
Often it is a question of choice between
locating the mill near the water and at
distance from the mine or placing
the mill near the mine and pumping
water to it from a lower elevation.
When this problem presents itself, it
becomes a question Of economy-which
will be least expensive, to tram the ore
to the mill at the water or pump the
water to the mill. The selection of
site is also Influenced by the topo
graphy of the ground. If a good site
is obtainable at the mine and it would
be necessary to pump water up to the
mill, even ii the latter were located
near the water. it will in most cases be
wise to build the mill at the mine and
pump the water unless the distance
and elevation be prohibitive. Expert
ence has already demonstrated that
large volumes of water may be pumped
many miles against 500 feet Or more
head at nominal expense per ton of
ore treated if the quantity be large
200 tons or more daily. No two situ
ations are identical and these matters
are wholly dependent upon the judg-
ment of the management. The econo-
mical features must be considered, the
relative cost determining the proper
course to pursue.-Min. and Sc. Press

Orisia Of Anthracite Coal.

The main difference between antbra-
cite and bituminous coal, says the
Ohio Valley manufacturer, is that the
former is devoid OF volatile matter.
Heretofore the theory generally ac-
cepted to account for this difference
was that presented a half century ago
by Prof. Rogers while conducting the
first geological survey OF Pennsylvania
Observing that the anthracite beds lay
in the eastern part OF the state, in close
proximity to the Archean axis of ele-
vation, he surmised that these coal
beds had, SO to speak, been cooked
upon tine elevation of the Appalachian
chain; that is, that he supposed that
the heat and pressure accompanying
the Appalachian elevation, acting most
vigorously near the axis, had distilled
and removed the volatile matter OF the
coal beds nearest it.
To adjust the theory to increasing
facts, Prof. Leslie added the SUPPOSE
ton that the heat involved in this
theory was brought up by the con-
duction when the superintendent lay
ers of rock were extremely thick, which
have since been mainly removed by
the erosive agencies which have been
active over the region for millions OF
years.
The inadequacy of these theories has
led Prof. J. J. Stevenson OF the Uni
versity of New York, to PROFOUND a
simpler theory, which was ably de-
Tended by him at a recent meeting of
the Geological Society of America.
He would account for the lack OF vola-
tile matter in anthracite coal by the
simple fact that it had been longer
exposed to that kind of decay which
takes place in vegetable matter when
immersed in water, and which consists
chiefly in the loss of the hydrocarbons
which constitute the elements in BIZ
luminous coal. On this supposition
were formed earliest in the swamps and
lagoons of the carboniferous period,
and remained longest devoid of the
covering OF sedimentary deposits which
subsequently preserved them from fur
ther change.
The theory is confirmed by the fact
that there is no such strict relation of
the anthracite beds to the Appalachian
axis elevation as Prof. Rogers had
supposed, and by many other con-
siderations which Prof. Stevenson is
about to publish. This simple cause
seems adequate to account for all the
phenomena, and probably solves one
OF the long standing mysteries of geo.
logical science.

An exchange propounds the follow
fng: 'The publisher of a newspaper
has one thing to sell and one thing to
rent. He has the newspaper to sell
and the space in his columns to rent.
Ean any one inform us why he should
be expected to give away either the one
or the other? He can if he so choose,
and he does as matter of fact, fur
nish great deal of space rent free.
but it does not follow that he ought
20 be expected to do SO. 1t ought TO
|be recognized as contribution, ex-
actly as would the giving away OF
Sugar or coffee by grocer. But,
strange to say it is not looked upon in
fhat light at all; and yet everybody
knows that the existence of a news
paper depends upon the rent OF his
fpace and the sale of the paper, just
fhe same as the merchants success
pepends on selling his goods instead
pr giving them away"

Big Y. In English Writing.

Did it ever occur to you that 1t
 might seem very egotistical for you to write of yourself with capital "Ir instead of using the small and less obtrusive one? The English use of the capital T" Is one Of the oldest features of the language-to a for eigner. If a Frenchman writes refer ring to himself he makes eje" (the French equivalent of "I') with a small "j" So with the German, who may 1se capitals to begin every noun: he always uses the small ti" in writ ing "ich." The Spanlard avoids. as taI as practicable, the pse of the per- sona1 pronoun when writing in the first person, but he always writes K "yo," taking pains, however, to begin the Spanish equivalent of our you" with capital In English it is sure- ly big "I' and little you" as the old saying has it.
