MINING LOCATIONS
 IMPORTANT DECISIONS
Hill Sites Must Not Be Contiguous to
 Mineral Claims.

By courtesy of the surveyor general The Republican prints the following digest of a recent decision by the sec retary of the interior relating to the location of mill site claims in connec ton with lode mining claims, which will be found of interest to mining men throughout the country:
 Mill site-Contiguity to vein or lode claim-Section 2337, R. $. Brick Pom eroy mill site.
 "The provisions of section 2337 of the revised statutes that: Where non mineral land not contiguous to the vein or lode is used or occupied by the pro- prietor of such vein or lode for mining or milling purposes, such on-adjacent surface ground may be embraced and included in an application for patent for such vein or lode, and the same may be patented herewith, subject to the same preliminary requirements as to survey and notice as are applicable to veins or lodes,' construed. Held: The words vein or lode in said sec ton, are not used in the restricted sense of indicating a body of mineral or mineral bearing rock, in place, only, but are used in the larger sense of des- ignating a located vein or lode claim and that only non-mineral land not contiguous to a vein or lode claim may be appropriated for mill site purposes.
 Direction given that all applica- tions for mill site patents which may be made and carried to entry before July 1, 1906, or which may, by protest or otherwise without the fault of the applicant, be prevented from being carried to entry before that date, where the locations of the claims were made and perfected under the law in all other respects prior to January 1, 1904, shall be adjudicated. in respect to the matter of contiguity of the mill site claims to vein or lode claims, un- der the practice which prevailed in the general land office prior to the depart mental ruling in case of Alaska Copper company"
 The effect of the foregoing decision is that it is no longer permissible to locate a mill site claim adjoining any of the lines of a lode claim. The term of the statute referring to lode claims is construed in it's broader sense, and is held to mean, all the ground within the lines of the lode location, and not in the restricted sense, as heretofore believed to mean merely the vein mat ter throughout the center of the claim Under this decision, the spirit of the statute will also be enforced in regard to the space of intervening ground be- tween the mill site and the lode claim; and a narrow strip of a few inchGs be tween the lode and the mill site will not be held to comply with that part of the statute which holds that the mill site must be non adjacent to the lode. While the decision does not specify the minimum distance which shall exist between the lode and the mill site claim, it is evident that such distance must be sufficient so as to leave the intervening ground of sufficient area as to be valuable for other purposes. and can be disposed of by the government

gates, the larger portion of the sand being stopped in the sluiceway by the weir. the sluicing gates of course being closed. This having proceeded until the sluiceway is full of sand, the sluic- ing gates will be raised by hydraulic machinery and the water will then flush out the sluiceway, this water and sand below the dam running back into the river between the canal and the rivers over a solid granite reef
 The machinery for operating the sluicing gates will be a hydraulic cyl finder situated on the dam, between the canal headgates and the sluiCing gates and the water pressure employed will be 750 pounds to the square inch. The cylinder will operate the gates through a shaft in the dam pier connecting with tunnel under the sluiceway, by means of wire ropes. this tunnel prob ably being large enough for a work man to enter in the event repairs are necessary. Each of the four sluicing gates will be 9x15 feet in the clear and will be constructed of cast iron, steel and concrete, the rubbing surfaces be- ing faced with bronze. The canal gates will be operated by hand devices and individually.
 On the south side of the river the construction for delivering water to the south side canals will be a duplicate of that described above, except that there will be only two sluicing gates and four canal headgates. The sluiceway will be 421a feet wide and the canal head 103 feet wide. A little figuring shows that the water delivery constructions at the north end of the dam will utilize approximately 193h feet while at the south end 1451z feet will be devoted to a similar purpose, Or total at both ends of 339 feet
 Having attempted to describe in general way the details of water de- livery the next effort will be directed to the dam proper. Between the gate mechanism on either end of the dam there will be HOO linear feet of solid masonry, making the total length of the entire construction 1439 feet. It

is understood of course that the greater length of the dam will be constructed of solid masonry, placed directly on bedrock. But it is also well known that there will be a short section of the dam in the center of the channel where the bedrock is so deep it cannot well be reached with solid masonry. This central section will therefore be described. The rest of the dam will be just like it in surface appearance when completed. the difference only being in the foundation.
 The upper face of the dam will be almost perpendicular, though there will be a batter or slant of one foot in ten As the dam will rise but fifteen feet above the natural mud channel of the river this slant will scarcely be noticed.
 At the bottom of the excavation the base will be 311a feet wide. At the top the dam will be 712 feet wide. rounded with what the engineers call an 70 Gee curve on the down stream face. merging into a slope of on and that in turn into the apron, which is further heightened by over twenty feet of solid concrete slabs, laid on a foun- dation of rock filling several feet in thickness. This is to prevent the water from cutting in on the lower side of
 
 slabs and all, the dam at the point of the natural river bed, or the bottom of where the water will run, will be approximately sixty feet in thickness though this is not the actual base, but the river bed line
 Taking the upper face of the dam, the solid masonry will be 26 feet high, 15 feet of which will be above the natural river bed and eleven feet be- low it. This masonry structure, 311a feet wide at the bottom, will rest on a steel reinforced foundation The steel plate will rest on piling, driven if pos sible to bedrock. The upper face and the lower face will both be sheet piling, enclosing this area of 31h feet and within it will be numerous rows of round piling. A pier will also be built on the lower side with slanting sur face, and beneath the concrete apron to further strengthen the pi1ing struc- ture.
 In other sections of the dam where the foundation is deep, yet not so deep as to require piling structure to reach

bedrock, the steel plate foundation will rest on masonry walls that go to bed rock, enclosing areas of dirt. These walls on the upper and lower faces of the dam, 311z feet apart, outside measurement, will be eighteen inches thick.

IN CANDY BUSINESS
NO WASTE AS SCRAPS ARE AL
WAYS MADE USE OF.
Seasoned Confections Considered the
Best-Maker Of the Sweets
Must Be an Ar
tist.

There is this similarity between the
candy business and the iron business
the scrap is not allowed to go to waste.
An observer who had an idea that
candy manufacturers must nave 10
stand a lot of loss because candles gel
stale. took the trouble to investigate
and learned that his idea was wrong
says the New York Sun.
The big candy makers ship to their
agents throughout the country at stat
ed intervals, usually Of a week, their
standard confections, and all not sold
at the expiration Of the interval are
returned to the factory as scrap. AS
the candy is mostly sugar, and sugar
Is as indestructible as iron. 1t Is only
question for the candy maker OF get
Ting the sugar value out OF the scrap
1t is impossible to work over the
candy in its original form, but II can
be used in many ways. For example
the chief use to which stale chocolates
are put is in making caramels and oth
er CneWey COHleClloHs'
It's a mistaken idea that candy must
oe fresh to be good One manufactur'
er who makes only for the trade ana
confines himself chiefly to high-class
chocolates and bonbons said that candy
wasn't fit to eat until it had been sea
soned for at least ten days. For his
own use-and he is great lover or
candy, despite the general belief that
no cook cares for his own messes-he
keeps chocolates about a month before
eating them.
This man has no patience with those
who assert that colored candy Is pol
sonous. His argument is simple AS
he puts It,
whats the use Of putting poison in
candy when natural and harmless col
oring matter costs less? who'd put
opium in cigarettes when tobacco Is
cheaper than opium?
"Its the same way in my business
can turn out bonbons in any shade
you want-from the greenest OF God'
green grass to the pinkest pink OF a
hunting coat and do it all without the
aid of any ingredients but pure vege'

Copan tank farm, with l07 tanks, is
finished, and the work is all done ON
the Caney farm of 240 acres, bought
several months ago. Another farm
was also bought las. week, consisting
of 240 acres, situated to the east of

or a storage capacity Of 100000 bar
rels, total of 27,000,000 barrels of
Kansas and Oklahoma crude oil in
storage tanks, when all are completed.
The storage capacity will cost the
company S7,000,000, exclusive Of the
oil. In addition to the first cost, there
was shrinkage Of IL per cent last
year in the oil, and as it will stand
in the tanks several years before it
will be used, there will be further
