To SAVE GOLD
FROM SNAKE RIVER
Concentration Of the Black Sands,
Says Geo W, 0ttersOn, is the
Successful Way.
THEN SMELT THE PRODUCT.
By This Meaps, 1t Is Claimed, Practi.
calIy All Values Can be Saved
Experiments Made.

George w, otterson, mining man
who makes his headquarters at Port
land, Or, has been In Idaho recently
conducting an examination Of the gold
bearing sands Of the upper Snake river.
In an interview he expressed the opln-
ion that II is an easy matter to save
the precious contents Of these sands
Notwithstanding the many failures re-
corded In the past. Mr.. otIerman says:
1.-THE trouble with black sand min
ing in the past is that the only effort
has been exerted directly to save the
gold. and In so doing large percent
age OF the desired metal has been al
lowed 10 escape, and whatever values
the sand may have carried have been
entirely lost. The process now en-
ployed Is 10 concentrate the black
sand and send the entire produce to
the melter. and thus save all the val
ues carried, on an assay made
from black sand that has been ANAL
gamated, the report showed the tailngs
to carry 1850 in gold, besides valuable
metal, all of which would have been
saved by the concentrating process,
Large quantities OF the gold Is found
coated with black sand. and cannot be
collected by the matchmaking tables,
and under the old process allowed TO
escape into the tailings, The first re-
quisite to successful handling OF the
black sand is to have plenty OF sluice
boxes properly constructed and a suili-
cient quantity of clear water, Then
with screens and plates the concentrat-
Ing Of the values Is a matter that can
be conveniently overcome.
ION examining the proposition OF the
upper river ! found In some places the
black sand will run three pounds to the
pan, but OF course this Is not true In all
places, Placer mining in the past has
been greatly hindered by the rifles be-
coming packed with the black sand and
the gold allowed to pass over the
quick silver to the failing dump beyond.
II the concentrating process had been
employed on the upper river where an
attempt had been made to handle the
sand, | doubt much II there would be
any ground left to mine at this late
day"
Mr.. Otterson has taken several sam
pies and VIII thoroughly test the sand,
after which he VIII erect a plant II the
test proves as successful as he believes.

HEROIC TREATMENT.

A subscriber 10 a telephone exchange
asked 10 be placed in communication
with his medical man.
Subscrlber-My wife complains OF a
severe pain at the back Of her neck and
occasional nausea.
Doctor-She must have malaria,
Overwhelmingly best to be done?
At that moment the clerk at the CEN
trail station altered the switch by mis-.
take and the unlucky husband received
the reply OF q mechanical engineer in
answer to the inquiries of a halloween.
Engineer-I believe the inside IL lined
with excavations TO IL considerable
thickness. Let her cool during the
night, and in the morning, before mr.
ing up, take hammer and pound her
vigorously Then get garden hose
with strong pressure from the main and
let II play freely on the parts affected.
TO his great surprise the doctor never
heard from his patient again'-London

highway of commerce, however. and
had probably been passed by a score
of crafts which failed to make her
out.
One morning she was sighted by
the American tea ship Flying Scud,
homeward bound. and as usual a boat
was sent aboard. Captain Davis was
in good health and the hulk as sound
as a dollar He admitted that he was
a bit lonely, but was more determined
than ever to stick to his craft. What
he wanted were spars and a few men,
and it so happened that the Scud
could accommodate him with both

and he finally fell into a temper and
ordered his callers back to their own
craft Although he had driven his
own crew away by his threats he took
1t much to heart that they had gone,
and there seemed to be a hope on his
part that they would finally return.
In his obstinacy he lost sight of the
fact that anyone else had rights in
the case. While he owned the brig
others owned the cargo, and as soon
as his adventure was reported steps
were taken to rescue him by force. In
other words, any craft sighting him
was authorized to tow the hulk into
port and claim salvage on the cargo,
which I believe was valued at about
100000.

THE HIGHLAND CHIEF.
BY NJ. QUAD.

The big Highland Chief, bound from
Liverpool to Australia, had got to the
mouth of St. Helena when Paul Davis
her captain. became temporarily in
sane and drove all his crew except the
cook and boy to take to the long boat
and sail away. Thus the brig was left
without crew, and that was the be-
ginning of a long adventure.
On the next day there came gale
from the north, and the Chief went
scudding away before it, but after
run of 100 miles she was dismasted and
left a wreck on the tumbling seas The
cook was of no account as sailor, and
the boy of little help, but the Wreckage
was cut loose, and four days after the
gale the hulk was riding high and dry
and as tight as a bottle below. This
was when she was sighted for the first
time after the crew left. I was one of
the crew of the English bark Haw-
thorne, hOmeward bound from India,
and one morning we sighted the wreck
and bore up for it.
Our mate was sent abroad, and from
Captain Davis, who seemed all right in
his head again, he got the particulars l
have given you. Finding the hull sound
and the cargo valuable, the mate offer
ed to send men aboard to rig jury
masts and said her into port, but the
captain would not allow it. Neither
would he consent to be taken off the
wreck If the cook and the boy want
ed to go he had no objection. but he
had started on voyage to Australia
and he would finish it or sink with his
craft. The cook. who was a relative of
the captain, decided to stay, but the
boy had had enough of it and was
brought aboard of US. We lay by the
wreck for three hours, hoping the pair
left aboard would change their minds,
but as they did not, we finally sailed
away.
1t was two weeks before the High
lana Chief was spoken again. In that
time she had drifted $50 miles to the
south. This time she was overhauled
by the steamer Congo Prince, India
bound and a boat was sent aboard
Captain Davis was found at dinner. He
had weathered another gale and the
hull was still sound. The steamer Of
fered him tow to Cape Town, but he
rejected the offer.
The cook had tired of the situation
and wished to be taken off, but the
captain had made up his mind to stick
and no arguments could dissuade him.
The cook went aboard the steamer,
and the captain was left alone on a
grooming hulk in midocean. 1t was
thirty-one days before she was board
ed again, and the wreck had drifted
five hundred miles, though not alto
gether to the south. She was in the
