METALLURGICAL TRIUMPiS.
Show the Scientists Your Ore and He Will
Devise q Treatment.

ASVUG y ! 4tGStuguSs
1t can truly be said that on. of the
most important factors entering into
mining operations on large and diver
sified scale at the present time, and the
satisfactory results being chronicled,
can be designated as the "metallurgical
triumphs" of this day and age, and the
bringing of ore reduction methods and
processes up to an exact science.
Years ago but few ways of extracting
metallic values from ores were known to
the mining world. The stamp mill was
the favorite in the handling of free-mill-
ing gold and silver ores, and with fire q
certain class of rebellious ores could be
successfully treated. At this point the
miner and millman encountered break
ers "ahead," and while many PROPOSE
tions OF merit and value appealed to
them strongly, they were compelled to
ignore mining propositions which, today
are being operated at a handsome profit
because of the invention and discovery
of methods for ore treatment which
were not even dreamed Of twenty-five
years ago. For instance, the concen-
trating table is of quite recent origin,
and, by its use, low grade sulphide ores
can be handled at a profit which were
practically valuless several years ago.
Low grade oxide gold ores, ten years
ago, were worthless until the discovery
and utilization of the cyanide process,
and now base ores Of low value can be
successfully milled by the cyanide pro-
cess after first being roasted.
Low grade copper ores are also being
treated successfully at the present time
that would not have been looked ut by
the mining operator and mill man Of
fifteen years ago, and this because Of the
fact that the pyritic smelter or roaster
has become an important factor in pre-
pairing ores of this character for the
smelter stack and refinery, in addition
to which several copper-leaching pro-
cesses have been invented by the use Of
which low grade copper ores can be
worked to advantage and at q profit.
Then we have new methods for the re-
covery of values from taiings and shines,
and, in placer mining operations, the
inventive genius has perfected various
appliances 30 that the fine and -four
gold can be arrested and diverted to the
copper plate or amalgam pot. The sue
cesses attending the research and un-
tiring efforts OF the millman, the metal
lurgist and chemist in the endeavor to
perfect methods for the successful re-
covery of the precious metals and their
by.products, have been attended by such
magnificent triumps that in these days
no mining project need be rejected be-
cause Of the belief that this or that class
of ores can not be successfully worked.
Show the metallurgist your ore and
he will show you u process ior its reduc'
ton. To this fact can be attributed the
unqualified success which has attended
mining operations during the past few
wears, and this condition 10 largely re.
sponsible for the widespread interest
now being taken in mining operations

of the objections the Porto. Ricans have
to this country is the. high price of pro-

due to the fact that they can buy things

everything those people eat is higher in
this country than at their native homes,
so that the apparently high wages offered

ABOUT THE BULGARIANS.
Are Not All SavRges, M Many People
in This Country Would
Imagine.

The Bulgarans are the equals in
modern civilization of any nation OF
eastern Europe. They are not saw
ages, as some of the most excited of
our people seem to imagine. They are
a Christian folk whose good will to-
ward Americans in general and Amer
lean missionaries in particular has
been too often displayed to leave room
for any doubt of its existence, SAYS
the Boston Transcript. Although the
Greek church is the national religion
of Bulgaria. many Bulgarian public
men are graduates of or have been
students at Robert college, in Con-
stantinoPie, an institution affiliated
with our missionary enterprises. In
deed. Bulgaria'S political and social
development has been in no small de-
gree stimulated by the culture spread
by our missionary efforts. There is
not the slightest ground for the many
slurs and sneers at bulgaria which
have appeared in the American press
since Miss Stone was taken captive.
1t may be added that the Bulgarians
have what many persons well deem
the national virtue of hating the
Turks intensely.

stalked in similar manner. fhe
point TO be won was to see the rabbit
in the little form where il spends
the day, in surroundings that render
it well-nigh invisible, and shoot il be-
fore it could run away. For squirrels
he took an ancient fnt-lock ride.
