Steamed Up


Yesterday Frank Brockliss, of Sher-
idan was in town at an early hour,
as he had received word that his new
traction engine was here. The engine
is neat affair, about one half the
size Of the go-devil that Fred Dang
berg owns. There is a complete
thresher with the outfit and the COM
plete outfit is q thing to be looked at
in any mans Land.
With the assistance of all the small
boys in Carson and number of the
old boys the machine was fired up
and with footing of the whistle it
pulled down town on its own steam.
1t would hardly do to enter the auto
mobile class as the pace is about
three miles per hour. After a couple
of spins up and down the street the
engine was taken back to the depot
and hauled the separator to Ander-
sons corrall where it will be given
the finishing touches before putting
out for the valley today, where it will
be put into commission.

handled one million, one hundred
thousand pounds of ore and this month
they expect to receive about one mil.

A property which In three years has
paid out of itself It's purchase price, has
returned in dividends the sum Of $li0,-
5l6, has paid for its power plants and
mills. and now employs $50 men on its
pay rolls, such in paragraph, is the
story of the famous Annie Laurie.
The company today owns 70 full min
ing claims and covers an area OF over
/, 800 acres, most Of which is traversed
by rich veins of ore.
The mine proper is operated from two
t'innels, although there are five alto
gether, two being old tunnels that are
abandoned. Nos three and four tunnels
are being used and an intersection Is
made with the vein at depth Of 700
feet below the surface OF the ground.
All of the ore mined IL delivered 10

from there by tramway to the mill An
other tunnel Is being driven az
400 feet below No. which
has penetrated over 1900 feet
and win within three months have
cross-sectioned the principal vein,
where rich values are almost certain
to be met. Here connection VIII pc
made with the upper workings and the
entire mine will then be worked by over
hand Stopping and the output delivered
AT the mill direct through this new tun-
mel, which IL driven on level with the
mill.
The Annie Laurie mine has In tun-
ncls, drifts slopes, subleyels. raises.
etc over four miles Of workings and
practically all Is IN pay dirt
The average output Is nearly 200 tons
per day. from which in the past year
over $500 900 worth Of bullion has been
extracted. there are still over 100000
tons Of reserve ore blocked out,
The average cost Of mining and mil
ing has been estimated 10 be about
$3.50 per ton. or to better illustrate $40
ore leaves the handsome profit TO the
owners Of some $3.50 per ton.
There are something over 100 men
employed IN the mine whose payroll
amounts TO a little over $4,000 per
month.

This fine state OF division Is necessary
to break open the particles Of quartz
surrounding the gold and 80 expose the
metal to the action Of the cyanide solu-
ton with which IL comes in contact In
the subsequent teaching PROCESS,
The teaching department has been
twice extended since the starting mp OF
the mill and IL now capable Of handling
q larger tonnage than ever before. The
equipment consists Of 10 steel tanks,
varying in capacity from 100 TO 2iO tons,
ana each is provided with a filter bot
tom and Argall gate valves through
which the tailings are sluiced when the
extraction Of values Is complete The
ore is taken from the pulp bin In cags
and dumped into the tanks over a sys-
tenn Of distributors which prevent the
ore from packing and at the same time
spread II evenly over the bottom, The
benefit OF this Is to be seen later on In
the Increased rate Of teaching and bet
ter displacement of solutions which is
thereby effected. While the tank Is

is at the same time soaking It's way up

But 10 go back to the treat
ment of the ore in the tanks,
which was all but finished when we
left IT, the values have been extracted,
The cyanide has been washed out and
recovered and 1t remains to get rid OF
the taiings i'm order to make room for
new lot Of ore in the tank. The gate
valves are raised, and a stream Of wa
ter Is directed onto the tailings which
are thus washed through the valves
into large wooden aunders. These con-

is given in sluicing TO allow any coarse
PARTICLES Of gold left in the tailngs to
come in contact with the surface Of tho
plates and so be nmnlgamated and
caught The scheme Of amalgamatOn
after cyanlding Is novel one as far
as dry-crushing processes are concern

gal pump. FROM here il is led on TO
the top Of the ore In the teaching tank,
whore It completes the work of OK
traction, and az the same time washes
out on dlsplaoes the gold and silver
bearing solution retained In the charge.
The solution first brought into contact
with the ore is known as Strong solu-
ton and varies In strength from time to
time as The nntuTe OF the ore and labor

other solution In use too Of 4 different

GEOLOGICAL HISTORY,
OF the early geological history, Mr..

ut is clearly evident that at some
depth, the entire range Is u1derlald

1.-THE preponderance of evidence is
that the area now represented by the
Mt Badly range, ald its northern pro-
longation. the Pahvan mountains, be-
tween Willard ami Sewer counties, was
under the ocean during the Deyonian
age. Hundreds perhaps thousands, of
feet of sandstone was deposited. The

Of limestone.
