Thousands Killed by Cholera.

The fearful ravages of plague and
cholera in the old world are set forth in
mail advices received by the Marine Hos
pital service. The chief quarantine officer
at Manila estimates the number of cases
of cholera in the Philippine Islands since
March 10Th, last at 5000. with mortality
of 20 per cent. He says under date of
Sept. 18th. that the disease has practical
~ disappeared from those provinces pre-
viously infected but those most recently
infected are suffering severely. The
province of Iloilo and the adjacent island
of Negroes are badly infected and the
situation is alarming Some of the towns
In these provinces have lost ten per cent
OF their population and the epidemic con-
tnues severe. In Japan the latest ad-
vices show that there have been 1929
cases and 1850 deaths from cholera. in
China some cities report as follows:
Ranking. epidemic 10000 deaths; Foo
Chow. epidemic. 5000 cases per day In
Hong Kong since the beginning of the
outbreak there have been 459 cases and
3q6 deaths

THE SEARCH FOR GOLD.
Some of the Operations Which Are Be.
ing Carried on in the DeerfieId VAL

The gold mining craze in the Deerfield
valley appears to have partly subsidized
but the public is watching with great in
terest the proceedings of the companies
that have begun operations in that Sec
ton. The Brown Mining company and
the Chase-Davis company of Readsboro
have advanced the farthest. The Reads
boro Mining company which was orga-
nized with capital of $4,000 have
not done much yet, and are awaiting the
results of the experiments being made by
the Brown people. The Readsboro COM
pany attracted a great deal of attention
by securing as officers of its organiza-
ton some of the leading public men of
Vermont, and securing leases on about
1900 acres of land, including the Rowe
tracts, so that there has been a consid-
cradle demand that they get to work
1t has recently bought the Newton plant
at Mountain Mills near Wilmington, and
it is talking of installing entirely new
machinery. like that which is used at
Boulder. Colorado.
The great difficulty is that most of the
gold in the Deerfield valley is Flower
gold,' not placer or pocket gold The
latter kinds. which are mined in Colo
RADIO. are found in bits the size of a pin
head or larger. and can be easily sepa-
rated from the ore. Flower gold is
generally so fine that IL is not percept-
ible TO the naked eye. There is evident
ly gold in the Deerfield valley. and tests
of the ore recently taken out show about
an ounce to the ton. AS gold Is worth
s2O67 an ounce, and as the cost of get
ting it out is but So to 81 a ton, 1t is
clear that there is money in the bus
mess. If it is possible to separate this
Flower gold from the rock. So far
the machinery used does not seem to do
1t. The Brown Mining company have
been experimenting with amalgamation
processes by which by the use of ouick-
silver the gold falls to the bottom and
the water carries off the other material.
But the gold is so fine that much of It
escapes. There are machines which 1t
is said will separate even as fine gold as
this. and the capabilities of these pro-
cesses will be tried as fast as possible
The best deposits yet found in the Deer
field valley are at Searsburg. VT, where
