 Rvdu ... STIRS THE GOLD NDUSTRY>

pressor are for the purpose of agitating the liquid after the ore is placed in the tank.
 The ore Is ground to thirty mesh, pour ed into the tank and the liquid added. The compressed air is turned on and violent commotion follows. After a few hours of this the air is turned off and the liquid, now charged with mineral. i; drawn into the second tank, where 1t Is allowed to settle.
 The first Is the teaching tank and the second the precpitating. Part of the value falls to the bottom of the tank and the residue rises to the surface, where it forms red scum. Your corre- spondent touched this with finger. rub Der 1t on piece of paper and the ef- feet was that of leaf gold disinteGrated into minute glistenng particles. This scum and the pulp at the bottom are placed in a vessel. dried and finally melt ed into button.
 Produce Gold Buttons.
 The weight of the button determines the percentage and value of the mineral in the ore. The process of extraction Is in many respects similar to that employ ed in advanced plants using other liquids. In the safe of the company may be seen many large and small gold buttons, some of them worth from $Io0 to sl25. Each button represents single run. which, with the present primitive methods. re quires twenty-four hours. with ca pacity limit of ,o0o pounds.
 Professor Wynn says: My theory is that all the processes generally known are unreliable. A great part of the gold we recover is so fine that after IL Is thoroughly dried II will float in the air. This seems to show that the air may carry gold, and w. know from eXperi- ments that water from a number of gold mines is heavily charged with gold. We have recovered as much as 10 per cent in gold from a gallon of mine Wa ter. Other processes lose gold of that finencss. Take little copglomeration of these minute n1Ttjp1aS and break the little mass It Is resplendent with all the colors Of the rainbow. There are tens of millions of atoms in the little body.
 The divisibi!ity of matter is beyond calculation. is it's perpetual transition beyond human ken We have liquid gold, oil of gold and flower gold We catch them ali When put into the furnace these fine partiH'es escape, If the Wet treatment is mt inst right, they pass away in the adhcrent shines.
 Yellow Metal Grows.
 Gold grows. old miners in Boulder County call 1t veg tahle gold. Gold de- Velops until il reaches the perfect stage in the yellow metal We accomplish ar thcially in tWenty-four hours what might require a million years in the na- tural process. Different characters Of ore require different methods of treatment. They call for the application of different quantities of. the chemical compound Iron. sulphate copper, silver ana letu are deterrentS, and the quantity or llqulu must be increased when these mineral elements are present.
 If l were a fakr would want money l am asking nobody for money. l nave not sought noioriety. and would prefer 1t if my name were left ont of the news papers. The process is not the result of scientific investigation of chemistry or metduurgN. but of d careful, common sense study of the effect of liquids upon ores. and finally the truth was revealed hE accident. 1 am not afraid that We will ruin everybody in the mining indus try as We will restrict the output. We will offer tn the world no more gold than it Is able to consume. We may buy railroads and ranches and such things, but We will not be a menace to industry. We will make our own solutions and the secret will be ours We ask money from nobody.
 Denounced by Miners.
 Mining men generally denounce the process as a masterful deception, but cannot expose it. Meanwhile MT. Teller lF... #l.. Eaa
