NEW PROCESS
A Cyanide Treatment That
 Works Successfully

A Salt Lake man has just been granted patent for preparing acid ores, or tailing for treatment by the cyanide process, and miners consider .he discovery one that will be Of great value Co all those sections of the coun- try pIoducing ores which have been worked by the cyanide process. The method, briefly described by the dis covere- is very simple one and s very economical one, and while neutrslizing the acids that have hitherto fouled the cyanide solution it increases the percentage oi extrac- tion, and, t2 an extent that ii aston ishing, diminishes the amour. oi cyanide roqrire1 Tor leachiag. The secret of the whole process is the in- teliisent application of plain chiorase Of lime after the ores containing arsenid e, sulphides etc, have been roasted just enough to decompose those propsrti.s. This can be done very cheaply and qlickly without the loss Of gold. NJ attempt is made after roasting to remove the suipbat' g. srsenates, etc, by heat, bu: the lime treatment is at once applied. The dis coverer. who has for long time oper- sted cyanide plant at the Wilson mines, Pine Grove Nev, has treated and i. now treating successfully tEe ores by his method, the extraction ranging from S5 to 9 per cent of the gold contents oi The ores. With these ores in raw state, 60 per cent of tue gold was extracted with loss Of Is to 25 pounds oi cyanide of potassium per ton Of ore treated with potassium m cyanide alone. By the use oI tbe "Smith method" upon the raw ore, the same extraction was obtained wiih loss oi 3 pounds of cyanide of pots sium per ton of ore treated.

Unity o., United Presbyterian church
yesterday, Rev. William NJ. Hopping,
moderator, and Rev. ]. H. Littell, clerk.
Commissioners to the general assem-
bly,, which meets in Des Moines, Iowa,
were chosen, namely: Rev. w. M. But
Ter, Rev. ]. H. Spencer, Elders ]. w.
Newton and Calvin Pollock. /.
Rev. ]. H. Littell rendered his res
ignation as clerk, which was accepted,
and Rev. d. D. Dodds was elected to
fill the uneXpired term.
The First U. P. church of Wheeling
presented a call for the Rev. Charles
OF. Robinson, of Baltimore, Md. The
call was received and ordered for
warded to the Philadelphia Presbytery,
of which Mr.. Robinson is a member.
In the event of acceptance, the install
lation exercises will take place at the
convenience of the parties interested,
when the Rev W. G. Waddelly D. D.,
will preside and preach the sermon,
Rev. c. P. Proudfit will deliver the
charge to the pastor, and Rev. w. NJ.

The committee appointed by the
Presbytery at its meeting at High Ridge
to organize the Second UP. church
at Wheeling, made majority and
minority report. Through its chair
man, Rev. ]. H. Littell, it reported that
the organization had been effected as
ordered. The other two members of
the committee, Elders Joseph Glenn
ents and d. 7. McCloy, of Bellaire,
made majority report, setting forth
the fact that the proceedings of the
committee were not according to
church law and custom, and that they
therefore had refused to take part in
the proceedings. After considerable
discussion, set of resolutions, pre-
scented by the Rev. Mr.. Robinson, of
the Martins Ferry church, were adopt
ed in amended form. They condemned
the method of organization by the Sec
ond United Presbyterian church as
being irregular, but for the sake
of harmony the Presbytery waived
the right to regulate the process,
and recognized the organization of the
Second church as effected and entered
the name upon the records of the Pres
bytery.
The Rev. Thomas Balph was selected
to moderate the call of pastor, to the
Second U. P church at the convenience
of the congregation.
The Presbytery adjourned to meet in
Martins Ferry the second Tuesday in

NEW YORK, December 1.-THE
World will say tomorrow:
Two clever confidence men, believed
to be Americans robbed a priest in
Italy OF $4,000. The police of all the
large cities have been notified to watch
for them.
Two well groomed men with polish
ed manners apparently Americans.
called on Father Crosse. superior of
the Society of Jesus at the institute
at Turin, fortnight ago and told him
they were trustees of a rich orphan
boy whose father had recently been
killed in the Boer war.
They said they wished to place the
boy in the priests care and have him
educated in the institute They ex-
planned they were custodians of $780,
600 belonging to the boy which they
desired to leave for safe keeping in
Father Crosses hands.
The priest consented to assume
charge Of the boy and to accept the
custody of the funds. The men there
upon produced several bundles OF
what purported to be bank notes
which they suggested should be plac-
ed in the safe. Eater Crosse opened
the safe and the men placed therein
the bundles.
They then departed, stating they
would return shortly. Father Crosse
waited several days became suspicious
and went to the safe.
He found bank notes aggregating
$4,000 were gone, that the bundles OF
the supposed bank notes left by the
men were only waste paper
