MINING PAST
AND PRESENT.
Account OF The Industry In
Early Times Among The
Egyptians.


recognized industries of the United
States, has been In process of
development for centuries. Mining
as an industry II conceded to have
ben carried on systematically by the
Egyptians about the year 1000,
B. G. II IL possible that operations
of u similar character were carried
on even before that period, but no
records are cxtant To prove IL.
The Egyptians were extremely
partial To gold mining, aud ~ far as
history enables the passing of an
opinion ON this subject IL IL resumed
that mining operations were confined
to gold ore almost exclusively. II
was customary among the Egyptians
to assign the task of working the
mines To criminals and prisoners of
war, who were made To bear the
strenuous difficulties of securing the
metal with very crude paraphernnlia.
Tho ore bearing rock was softcncd
by fires and then detached by iron
picks. Tho veins were followed In
their circuitous tracks, and there was
no attempt To devise economical
methods or systematic means Of
procedure. Persons of all ages. both
men aud women, were compelled To
perform this work
After the ore was removed II was
crushed To small pieces and ground
in hand mortnrs into powder.
Then all foreign matter was eliminated
M far as practicable by washing the
ore upon brond tables, which were
inclined. resembling somewhat the
modern concentrator. The residue
was then passed into mn carthcn
cruciblc. smeltcd aud converted into II
form Of bullion.
For years little change was made
In the process Of extracting the
metals from the mines. Even during
the prehistoric days Of Mexico. as far
~ discoveries enable scientists to
judge the only implements used to
work the veins were some small.
rude stone hammers. These must
have given but little satisfac.
tion, as the veins upon which they
were working were nearly M hard as
the implement used.
II IL known that the nncients. In
carrying out there mining operations,
never attempted To mine at any
great depth, as is 81 common at the
present time. AZ first signs Of water
coming from u fssurc operations
wers abandoned. Even where the.i

section might have encouraged the

be- consumed in sinking shaft |
which now could bc accomplished |
within six months, This Is
particularly true. as the majority of
primitive miners believed in sinking |
shaft upon n mineral outcrop |
rather than driving u tunnel upon
u ledge which would permit of such |
an operation, either in direct
contact with the vein or with view
of cross. cutting the mineral bodies.
With the introduction of steam
as motive power, the ways Of
operating mines soon changed in
favor Of such appliances as human
ingenuity devised. Before long

the place of the ore carrier and the

TROUBLE FOR PACKERS
The Attorney General Of Missouri
Talks About Reviving Proceed
ings Against Them.

Kansas City Mo-. Nov. 24.-The steady
decrease Of cattle and live stock receipts
and the upward tendency of meat quota
tions has become so noticeable that At
torney General Grow Of Missouri Is talk
ing of again bringing the packers into
court.
1.-THE real penalty for running a COM
bination was not enforced said the at
torney general referring to the proceed
ings wherein the packers were fined for
forming a combination THE packers
were let off with fine Of S., 900 each, with
the understanding that the penalty would
be held in allegiance during their good be-
havior. They are in the same position as
offenders out on parole. The more severe
part of the penalty is to GUST them from
the state. That can be enforced if it is
shown that they have gone back to their
old practices
The packers are still operating under the
old system. Prices are advanced stimuli
taneously ct all the houses, and altho there
has been a steady decline in cattle OH the
hoof, dressed meats have been advancing
for nearly year.
Further evidence of the trust is shown
in the united action of all the packers in
disseminating the delivery of meat where
by it is claimed the combine saves In Kan
sas City alone nearly $2500O0 annually.
