"Dlamond cut Diamond"

Probably most people know that
nothing but diamond will cut dia-
mond, and so the diamond is extern
sively employed in all the diamond
cutting factories in Amsterdam. a
stone Of 400 carats can be split In 10
minutes by skillfully pressing one dia-
mond against the other on the spot
where a flaw occurs. the diamond In
the right hand being used as knife.
Where flaw occurs split soon takes
place, and the diamond divides into
two stones. Should there be another
flaw in either of these the operation Is
again repeated, until several pure, law
less diamonds lie on the rough wooden
table, and the first process is success
fully accomplished.

Ore Of Phenomenal Richness.

In the mine of the Sunbeam Gold |
Mining and Milling Company in
Friday gulch ore has been encoun-
tered in the working shaft at a depth
Of 100 feet, which in richness sur
passes anything heretofore found in
the southern Hills, taking into con-
sideration the quantity OF it, says
the Hill City News. Since it was
first found fifteen feet has ben
sunk, and large number of tons OF
ore has been taken out. A careful
examination of the rock on the dump
reveals the fact that there are more
pieces which show a speck OF free
4 gold than there are that do not A
1 great many assays have been made
on the ore, practically every foot
has been tested, and not one has
given a less value than 800 in gold
!. to the ton Of rock. We have been
told that DR.. Chambers, the mana
ger Of the company, has selected
r from the ore dump the richest speci.
men rock, about two tons in all
& which he has in the laboratory room
and which will mill $4,000 in gole
to the ton Of rock. The ledge which
! produces this ore, phenomenal in it,

wide. The mine in which this val
