Sufficient time has now elapsed since

ings to practically prove the feasibility
of that process. Over two years ago
Mr.. II. s. Stark, manager of the Crown
Reef, brought out his process for ex.
tracing gold from cyanide residues,
and the record of recovery made in
that time is sufficient to place the
stamp of success upon it. At the pres
ent time the process is installed not
only at the Crown Reef, but at the
Wemmer, and the Ferreira, Henry
Nourse and the Geldenhuis Estate. In
addition to these a number of other
companies are negotiating for the treat
ment of their dumps by the Stark pro-
cess. As in all other mining districts
where OPP a ms have been conducted
over a long period of years the great

tion of a process for the recovery OF

values from residues is to be expected
from the oldest tailings dumps which
were formed at a time when metallur-
gical operations had not reached their
present high efficiency.
1t is estimated by South African
Mines that there are between forty
and fifty million tons of residues on
the Rand. These contain on an aver
age one pennyweight of gold, or a val
ne OF one dollar per ton. This repre-
sents the o sum of between
forty and fifty millions of dollars.
Granting that eighty per cent of this
sum could be recovered at fifty per
cent profit will be seen that the la
tent value OF the Rand tailings piles
approximates eighteen million dollars.
That these figures are not merely con-
jectural may be believed when it is
considered that the Crown Reef COM

The bank wal willing, and the plant
was bought, carted by mule teams
ninety miles across the desert, and on
April Goth of last year, the first is
sue of 1.-The Goldfeld News" was
printed. From the very start the pa
per was a success, and it grew 50 rap
idly that in less than nine months from
its birth it had by far the largest cir
culation and advertising patronage of
any newspaper in the state of Nevada.
This phenomenal success was attained
not only because Goldfeld has grown to
be the greatest of all the new gold
camps, but because the people soon
learned they could depend absolutely
upon what Brother O'Brien wrote and
published.
At the election last fa1l-the first
ever held in Goldfeld-the people
wished to honor Brother O'Brien by
sending him to the legislature, the
highest office within their gift. Though
nominated by the Democrats, men of
all parties besought him to accept the
nomination, but he refused, saying that
he had no inclination for politics, and
needed all his strength and energy for
his publication.
Goldfeld has now twenty mines with
high grade gold ore, but if the phe-
nomcnal growth of the camp and the
paper continues, the latter will itself
be a bonanza
Though Brother O'Brien has lived
in the west, principally Colorado, for
the last sixteen years, he is a native of
Springfield, Mass, where he was born
in 1866. Nine years ago he married

Conn, whose father was a charter men,
Der of the first Council of the Knights
of Columbus established at Meriden.

Goldfeld. Nevada, has become the
mecca of hundreds of gold seekers from
every part of the country, all attracted
nv the marvellous discoveries of the
precious metal which have been made
there during the last year. Where but
a few months ago the lizard, rattle
snake, coyote and wild horse were he
only living creatures, there are now
ten thousand human beings, and the
population grows by scores every day.
The man who is universally credited
with bringing the attention OF the
world to Goid6eld. is Brother James r.
O'Brien, a member of Denver Council
No. $50, and the founder and editor
of the "Goldield News In fact he
is often referred to in the camp a.

told of the wonderful surface showing
and the strikes of rich ore which fol
lowed each other in rapid succession.
When the first real strike was made
in Goldfeld, Brother O'Brien was in
Tonopah. He was practically "broke'
at the time. but with a companion fin
ally hired an outfit, the motive power
bein an old, discrepit horse which
was eternally imagining somebody
said "Whoa!'' On October IA, 1908,
O'Brien and his companion left Tono-
pah for Goldfeld, which is PC miles
to the south. They became lost, and
for a time it looked as if they would
have to make a dry camp, and spend the
night on the desert, with no water fol
themselves or the horse. Fortunately
after wandering about for several
hours, they came to Klondike well
midway between Tonopah and Gold
field.
After a drink all around and a bite
to eat, the travellers wrapped them
selves in their blankets, and slept till
daylight on the desert sand. Another
drink from the deep well, a hasty
breakfast, an over-venturesome rattle
snake despatched, and Brother O'Brien
and his companion again took up the
march to Goldfeld, the horse slowly
following. A week was spent in tramp

ing over the hills, a number of claims
were located, and the properties on
which there was any development were
carefully examined. The lodges were
measured and ''pannings' made from
the rock, which showed rich values in
free milling gold ore.
Brother O'Brien was enthused owe
the great showing. An indefnable
something told him that the values
would hold out to a great depth, and
that Goldfeld WA destined to be one
of the greatest gold mining camps in
history. He then started in to tell
the world of it. Every spare moment
of his time he spent In writing news
papers in various parts of the country
of what he aw in Goldfeld. F:nthusi-
asm frequently leads one to overesti-
mate and exaggerate the values in a
mining camp, and editors and readers
alike are suspicious of new and I'M
proved camps. But there was an air of
frankness an honesty about O'Brien Is
letters that carried conviction,
and the letters were published. Min
ing men read them, were convinced, as
many of them said, against their bet
ter jugdment-the stories seemed too
big to be true-and one after another
went to Goldfeld.
They found that not only had there
been no exaggeration, but in many in
stances the actual facts had been un-
derstated, while new strikes had been
made of even greater magnitude.
The ore shipments and smelter re-
turns soon convinced the most skep-
teal, and early in the spring Goldfeld

was appealed to to start one, but as
most of his work lp to this time had
been done voluntarily, without price,
he was still as badly off for ready cash
as when he first arrived. Nearly ev-
cry man in Goldfeld was in the same
position. They had the utmost faith
in the camp-these pioneers and as
fast as they made a dollar, every cent
that could be spared was put back into
the development of other properties.
