he geology of Connecticut. sc,entifIc

the geology of Connecticut. Scientific
 men give as the explanation for the de-
 posit the fact that Shaganowaump noun
 tain was once a volcano, and that while
 the eruption of the volcano was in prog
 ress the chemical changes superinduced by the intense heat took place and left
 in layers about the hill limestone as the first stratum, and underneath the lime
 stone the combination layer of wolfram
 and scheelite. While the volcano was in
 action the tungstic acid acting on the limestone produced echeelite, and on the
 iron ore produced the wolfram.
 At the present time the mining being done is simply surface mining. Thus far, I the layer of lime stone, which is next the
 surface, is not 80 thick as to prevent
 removing it and mining in the open cut fashion. The strata of lime stone is about 10 feet thick and will increase in thick
 ness as the mining approaches the crater grows too thick to cut through 1t will be tunneled under. The vein of scheelite and wolfram which is now being worked is from 12 to 15 feet thick, and of appar- ently unlimited width. The progress of the development of the mine is to work toward the crater of the volcano. When the crater is reached vertical shaft will be sunk, for then the yield of wolfram and scheelite is expected to be much larger. The spot from which the ore is now being taken is about half a mile from the plant where 1t Is crushed. The building is on the side of the hill, six stories high.
 The ore is practically pulverized and then passed through Hooper Aeparators, and the valuable ore is taken out of the tailings.
 The American Tungsten Mining & Milling Co. does not separate the wolfram from the scheelite. It is shipped to buy CTS as it comes from the separators. But the two can be readily separated by the use of the magnet, az wolfram responds to the magnet and scheellte does not.
 The Krupp steel Works of Germany have taken nearly all of the output thus far. A month ago, however, large con- sfgnment was sent to an experiment sta tion of the United States Government, and recently it was demonstrated that projectile with a tungsten jacket made from wolfram and echeelite would pene- 1 trate the hardest kind of harveyized nickel steel armor.

Rare minerals which are being mined at Long Hill, eight miles north of Bridge port. are being used by the United States Government in series of experi- ments to find projectile that will pierce
 the heaviest and hardest arr10r plate. The products of thas mine are wolfram and scheelite, the two being found in combination 60 far nowhere else in the arately, scheelites being found in the gold
 mines of New Zealand, but 1t does not
 equal either in quantity or quality that
 which is being mined at Long Hill from
 the Sha ganowaump mountain. Wolfram
 is found in small quantities in Utah, Ar-
 fz0na and in the tin mines of Cornwall,
 England. This combination makes the
 value of the mine extremely great.
 Wolfram and scheeltte are the ores of
 tungtteD. At the present time the pro- ducts of the mine sell from $450 to $65O a ton, and the owners of this mine con-
 trol the worlds market for tungsten.
 The American Tungsten Mining &
 Milling Co. was formed 6 little. over a year ago and has been working the mine
 since September, and erecting . plant. Among those interested in the mine arc Frederick c. Beach, editor of "The Scientific American," who spends his summers at Stratford; Sir Douglas Fox of London, a we'll known authority on mining in Cornwall, England; w. Fl.
 Hinsdale, who designed the unique plant, and who hae been identified with the manufacturing of steel for years, and Prof Adolph Gurlt of Bonn University, Germany, the chief consulting engineer, who has made several trips to this coun- try for the purpose of shaping the de- velopment of the mine. The resident chemist is Prof Herbert Shilstone, late of Barbadoes, British West Indies, and the resident engineer is Earl c. Bacon. Mr Shilstone is one of half . dcz m chemists in the world who have analysed or who know practically anything about wolfram or scheelite.
 Some 60 years ago the discovery of the of the minerals here was | made, the fact appearing in book pub liahed in 1887, by Dr K. U. Shepard, on

THE hEMODELED EAST WILL AGE METHO- DIST CHURCH.
 Inspiring services were held in the East Village Methodist church, last Sun day. when the church was used after the pleasing improvements made. The changes and repairs, while not being in any way extensive, have still been decid- ed improvements. Two ugly pillars, which have obstructed tho view of the minister for the past hundred years, ,have been taken out and the support hasbeen plate. The upper windows which for merly ran tight up to the ceiling, have been lowered IA inches and frieZe plac. ed above them on the outside, giving . greatly lowered appearance to the too lofty ceilings and sidewalks. The gallery previously available only as extra seat- ing capacity for the auditorium, has been partitioned off and the floor raised and leveled, making cozy prayer meeting room. It can be opened into the main audience room by means of broad arch old "A light windows, short and stubby, have been replaced by stained glass win- doWs in vertical arrangement, giving a much more pleasant appearance. The four W1nd0Ws on the north facing the people have been removed as have the leaky diecolored chimneYs. The decora- tions have been most artistically done in the rear of the pulpit, double pllasters on either hand give suggestions of strength and permanence. A slightly recessed ta alcove :t bearing oysE the sh1ee Holy" after the style of Wesley's chapel in London, relieves the former barren ap- pearance. Above the pulpit is 8 memo rial window, the subject being the "As- tension" to the memory of Rev Aaron Pierce, 8 former pastor and benefactor of the church. This is fanked on either side by gothic arches, bearing radiant crosses in their panels. The walls have been done in water color and two coats the improvements w6lch add the great est comfort are new wine colored plush cushions throuhgouN the church. The work of the artist has been exceedingly satisfactory, the handsome centerpiece, from which hangs a magniacient Frink re fl ector, being greatly admired. The enthusiasm and unity of these enterpris. ing people is we'll indicated by the fact that not single dollar has been expend- ed. for labor, save for the decorator, the mason and carpenter work, all paint ing and kalsominlng having been done by members and friends of the church.
