GOLD FROM SEA WATER.

Experiments Prove that Briny Deep
IL a Great Treasure House.
1t has long been asserted that gold
exists in state Of solution in the sea.
and that in the many attempts to ex-
tract 1t some has been collected and
precipitated, but 1t Is admitted that
failure has attended every effort at
announcement Is now made, however,
says the Cincinnati Enquirer. that a
new process has received the sanction
OF no less a person that Sir William
Ramsay, professor Of chemistry in
University College. London. officer Of
spending members Of the Institute of
France, member of scientific and phil
osophical societies In nearly every civ
ilized country, and the author of nu-
merous scientific papers and treatises.
The new process is patented, but no
further description Of 1t Is given than
that 1t bears a certain resemblance to
the treatment adopted in the mines Of
the Witwatersrand" South Africa.
1t Is said that a syndicate. whose
title and address are not given, has
been quietly picking up favorable sites
on the English and Irish coasts. and
has now acquired rights over some 30
miles Of foreshore. The securing Of
extensive foreshore rights is necessary
because the sea water must be abso-
lutely pure to obtain the best results
from the new process. Therefore, fac
tories and pumping stations must be
established well out of reach Of pass
ing steamers, the bilge water from
which would contaminate the sur
rounding sea and derange the process
Of extraction.
Some forty years ago active expert
ments began which showed that gold
in minute quantities was dissolved in
many rivers and streams and later on
a measurement Of gold in sea water
placed the amount at about a grain In
each ton Of the water. A grain of gold
being worth about cents and the tons
Of water In the ocean being placed at
10000 OOO,OOO,0OO, 1t staggers the mind
to attempt to compute in dollars the
prodlgious total value Of the gold In
the ocean.
Should the new process do all that
its friends sangulnely claim for 1t, gold
would almost become a drug on the
market; but 1t Is considerably remark
ed that ut would obviously not serve
the interests Of the synidacet to Sc
cure gold in greater quantities than
the market could absorb. Moreover
the firm Of f1nanclers whom we believe
to be mainly concerned in the develop
ments is far too deeply involved in
high finance to engage in any opera
tons which would have an unsettling
effect upon the currency"

The correspondent agreed that there
was no use talking about m extinct

meat Is easily kept and is the most
ueiiclous for table use that man can

nized as a luxury by all epicurfes. The
horns make beautiful ornaments. the

The skins are valuable and the milk OF

Railroad Rate LEGISLATION.

Testifying before the senate commit
tee at Washington, Interstate Com
MERGE Commissioner Prouty said in
discussing the proposition to give to
that commission the power to regulate
railway rates:
81 think the railways should make
their own rates. l think they should
be allowed to develop their own bust
ness. l have never advocated any law,
aid am not now in favor of any law
which would put the rate making pow
er into the hands of any commission or
court. While it may be necessary to
do that some time, while that is done
in some states at the present time,
while it is done in some countries,
am opposed to it. The
railway rate is property. 1t is all the
property that the railway has got. The
rest Of it's property is not good for any.
thing unless 1t can charge rate. Now
it has always seemed to me that when
a rate was fixed, if that rate was an
unreasonable rate, it deprives the rail
road company of its property pro tanto.
1t is not necessary that you should con-
fiscate the property of railroad; it is
not necessary that you should say that
it shall not earn three per cent or four
per cent. When you put in rate that
is inherently unreasonable, you have
deprived that company of it's rights, of
its property, and the circuit court of
the United States has jurisdiction I'm.
der the Eourteenth amendmant IN re.
strain that. l have
looked at these cases great many
times, and can only come to the con-
clusion that railroad company is en-
titled to charge fair and reasonable
rate, and if any order of commission,
if any statute of state legislature
takes away that rate, the Fourteenth
amendment protects the railway COM
pany."

men may be mentioned Nathaniel
Banks, the president Of the Illinois
Central Railroad, who had formerly
for three years, from 1857 to 1860,
been governor Of the State Of Massa-
chusetts.
Appointed as major general of vol
unteers and assigned to the Fifth
Corps Of the Army of the Potomac,
Nathaniel Banks proceeded to make as
good record for himself in the army
as he had IN executive and business
affairs. He distinguished himself es-
pecially ut the battle Of Winchester
on the Odd Of March, 1862. Left in
April and May to guard the valley Of
the Shenandoah, and even after,
through some exlgency Of the service,
the troops Of Gen. Shields had been
withdrawn and the troops Of Banks
numbered only about 5000 men, hs
succeeded in holding out against the
onslaught of SO great commander as
Stonewall Jackson.
In the hard-fought battle Of Cedar
Mountain, on June p, 1862, the forces
under Banks attained great victory.
Banks was then appointed to take
charge of the expedition Of New Or
leans, and while in command Of the
district there captured Port Hudson.

They are, first, exceedingly devout
In religion: they appear to be remark
able business men, hard headed as any
Scotsman. having n keen eye for open

they are said to be as full Of humor-
Gus sentiment as the widest of Irish

tired in the most grotesque costumes,
paraded under the leadership of a
whitebearded old man, representing
Father Christmas, and danced to

piest fashion. They made fun Of great
dignitaries, and even Of one who was
dressed up as the Emperor of China.
A delightful people they appear to
be, and Lassa. too, seems to be full
Of reminders Of the right little, tight

URGES DEER As FARM PRODUCT

Texas Farmer Raises Animate and

Raise deer and live at home. Plant
a few acres Of fawns and watch them
grow; observe their antics and note
their beauty from day to day. and you

this city, which park Is stocked with
deer, says a GAINESVILLE (Texas) special
10 the Galveston News. There are
twenty of these beautiful animals in
the Messrs. Harris collection, and they
are an attractive sight. The young
ones are never still except when asleep,
and they are not heavy sleepers. Their
Rambols would amuse a stole, and they
are a delight to all persons who see
them.

and I secured six deer and placed
them Ia our park, which Is a shady
grove adjacent to our old homestead"

three years has been far beyond our
expectations. We have used several on
