MINING SCHOOL GRADUATES

In the eleven years ending with 1893
the scientific schools of the country grad
uated O34 students in the branches al
lied to the mining industry. From the
records of such as have sought to keep
in view their alumni it is found that the
mining companies of Montana have
drawn quite largely from them for their
experts. as will be seen by the following
list. which probably does not include
more than half their number. as many
OF the schools keep no record of the
movements of their graduates.
