The results indicate that minute

samples show the presence of very
small quantities of gold. The sam
pies do not always give the same re-
suits in repeated assays, showing that
the metals when present are uneven

OF the samples assayed contained sill

A few samples were tested in the

carbonate of lime, which is frequently
mistaken for zinc blend.

UNCLE SAM REPAYS.
Any Moneys Collected by His Agents
ErroneousIy,


A land attorney who is looking up
claims against the government for
money paid on desert land claims en-
tered during the years 1884 % 1888,
patents for which were never receiv-
ed, has listed J. w. Johnson and M.
Brandenburg as unknown claimants,
but they are in unquestionGble com
pany, as H. L. Neidringhaus, a former
Missouri congressman also seems to
be unknown. But Mr. Brandenburg of

police of the same city, probab'~ rave
$160 each coming to tneEH, ess the
agents commission, when they sue
ceed in identifying themselves.
1t is not known absolutely that
these claims are all good, but if they
are, they are collectible by the heirs
if the original settler, is dead. To
make the government liable it must
be shown that the entry at it's ipcep-
tion was invalid that the error was
made by the land officer allowing it,
and, lastly, that tEe entryman could
not have received his patent even if
he carried the entry through. The
mistakes arose in the land depart
ment and consisted in selling land
at $1.25 an acre which could not be
sold at less than $3.50 under the reg
ulations, and repayment is made un-
der the act of June 6, 1880, and under
section 1852 of the revised statutes,
on the ground that the sale as evil
denced by the entry was an erroneous
sale and could not be confirmed, for
the reason that said entry sale was
allowed to be made at less price
than that fixed by law. There are
doubtless many other persons in 9TH
er parts of the state who have claims
OF this character.

In Bulletin No. 202 of the United

press, DR.. Waldemar Lindegren gives
the results of an investigation of
certain Kansas shale beds, undertake
en- by the United States Geological
survey in May, 1902, to determine
whether they carried gold and silver
il commercial quantities.
The assertion that certain clay
shales of western Kansas contains
gold and silver dates back about
seven years. and originated in the
work of company of men who were
prospecting for zinc in the soft clay
shales near Smoky Hill river, in Ire
go county, in 1895. These shales,
it was found, extended through a
large part of Ellis county. A large
number of assays of these shales
was made by different persons. A
large percentage of the samples was
said to contain gold and silver, and
it was claimed that the clay had aver
age values of from 81 to about $40

persons, among them Professor E.
Haworth, of the Kansas state unjver-
