in more appropriate words.
Shouts of disapproval greeted the
motion. Scores of veterans were on
their feet in a moment. protesting
against any change. Then some one
started the rebel yell, and the whole
crowd was at 1t for several minutes.

WHAT IS BEING DONE
INTHE MINING WORLD
Colorado Men in Bolivia.

]. NJ. Burnell, former business man.
ager of the Rocky Mountain News, and
one of the best known citizens of Dem
yer, returned yesterday after an abb
sence of over two years, during which
time he has been engaged in the exam
nation and development of bar plac-
Ger mine in Bolivia, South America.
says the News of September 2Sth. The
purpose of Mr. Burnells trip was to
pass upon the reports of experts who
had examined the property for the Gold
Exploration Company. Fl.
Mr.. Burnell is general manager and
large stockholder in the Gold Ex-
ploration Company. An exhaustive ex-
animation fully confirmed the most
sanguine findings of the experts. Dur
ing the last two years Mr.. Burnells en-
tire time has been occupied in explor-
ing and preparing for development the
property of the company.
A minute inspection of the property,
which made Mr.. Burnell conversant
with its needs, convinced him that he
himself, having been on the ground,
would be. better qualified to select the
mining machinery than anyone to
whom he might write, SO he came
home for the purpose.
Nearly all the mining being done in
that part of South America is by COM
panies organized and controlled in
Denver. Beside the Gold Exploration
Company. there are the Bolivia Gold
Mining Company of Colorado and the
Bolivia-Minnesota Mining Company.
Colorado capitalists are interested
. largely in all three companies.
Mr.. Burnell carried on his researches
in thorough manner. With the ap-
1ion ha hal Of ha Iad IN
ercise a great deal of perseverance to
reach bedrock. but he was rewarded
with a great deal more gold than the
reports had led him to expect. In ev-
cry. respect his investigations have
more than sustained the reports of the
experts.
Mr.. Burnell has brought back with
him sixty ounces of gold taken from
the bedrock. and also sixty pounds of
sand. This sand is worth more than
IS a pound. He has. too. many sam
pies of bedrock which are fiecked and
covered with gold.
The gravel taken from the bedrock
is Immensely rich. Some of it runs as
high as one ounce of gold to the pan.
which is a valuation of about $4,000 a
cubic yard. The. gold taken from the
company's property is very coarse,
being in large flakes. much resembling
rolled oats in shape. The company
owns four of these placers, comprising
about seventy-two acres. besides two
miles of the river adjoining. 1t is. .es-
timated that these properties are worth
many millions of dollars.
Bolivia, Mr.. sBurnell says, is prac-
tically free from the periodical reyolu-
tons which cause SO much trouble
among southern republics. Even when
there is political disturbance in that
country it is merely "a fight for office,
and vested interests are as safe there
as they are anywhere. Mr.. Burnelrs
many friends are congratulating him
upon the good fortune which his ex-
animation of the mining properties has
demonstrated is in store for him.

Gilman Lowe, a New York athlete,
lifted 1.006,000 pounds in thirty-four
minutes and thirty-five seconds. The
scale was so arranged as to bring the
arm, leg and back muscles into play.
Each lift of the beam under which he
stopped raised 1000 pounds dead
weight. During the two months train
ing Mr.. Lowe lived on only one meal
daily, consisting of three eggs, one
aalf loaf of whole-wheat bread, fruit,
either oranges, grapes. apples, or ba-
nanas, cereals, and nuts. and one glass
Of milk after the meal; also plenty of
cooled distilled water during the day.

Low Grade Gold Deposits.

1t was reported short time ago that
big deposit of low grade ore near the
Colorado-New Mexico line had been
sufficiently developed to show that ii
was very valuable and also that 1t
could be treated with but little diff
Guilty. .. :. =.
Deposits of this kind have been
classed among the most valuable gold
mines. The great Homestake mine in
the Black Hills belongs to this class.
1t is an enormous body of ore that runs
only few dollars to the ton. The ore
is easily mined and economically treat
ed. The large quantity and. the easy
treatment combine to make the pro-
duction of gold exceedingly profitable.
A rumor is now in circulation that an
offer of $35. 100000 has been made for
the property. Even if this rumor is
not true, it at least gives an idea OF
the estimated value of the mine.
The great Treadwell mines in Alas
ka. from which millions of dollars of
gold have been extracted belong to the
same class. While those mentioned are
among the most noted, numerous SIM,
liar deposits of less value have been
worked in different parts of the coun-
try In fact. practically all the mines
in the rand district of South Africa be-
long 10 the low grade Class.
The mining industry in Colorado
could esk nothing better than the dis
covery of a Few big deposits OF low
grade gold ore susceptible of treatment
a. small cost. 1t would mean both
a large increase in the value of our
gold output and the employment of
many more men, in mining, in milling
and in transportation, to say nothing
of those who would find various occu-
pations in connection with the life of
community dependent upon the opera
tion Of such mine.
A few facts about the Treadwell mine
supply an interesting illustration. This
mine is situated on Douglas island
across the channel from Juneau and.
together with the Mexican and Ready.
Bullion properties. operated in connec-
tion with 1t, it gives employment to
some 1900 miners. The output is
about 5000 tons day and the. ore is
crushed under $50 stamps. 1t is, esti-,
mated that thestotal product since the.
mine was opened is at least $4,000 900,
which is more than the United States
paid for the whole of Alaska. The ore.
ranges in value from $3.50 to $500 or
$500 rer ton, pnd the cost of treatment
is only $1.35 per ton.
