 Some of the new tables in the add
 tion to the shannon concentrator are
 now In operation and all of them will
 be running in short time, which will
 double the capacity of the concentra
 ting plant, and enable the company tc
 handle 25O tons of ore per day iu ad
 dition to the 800 tons which it has
 been smelling and concentrating for

 A new oil process is being tested by mining men of Mineral Park. The treatment of ores by this new process Is said to have been surprisingly sue cessful, the metallic values in arsen- ous, antimonial and iron pyritic ores being saved to nearly 90 per cent. The oil used is specially prepared and it's use is exceedingly economical. It will be fully tested here, and if it is found capable of handling the ores of all the classes successfully it is more than probable that plants will be installed at various places in the county Mohaye County Miner.
