FACTS ABOUT FIGURE NINE.
Professor Of the Occult Has Added 4
New Wrinkle.

Mathematicians have juggled with
the mystic figures 3. and 9 for ages,
and now comes a foreign professor"
of the occult science to tell fortune
by the force in simple numerar-
the 9. He reminds his victims that II
they multiply any number. short of
decimal, by 8 the two figures of the
product added together will make 8.
Thus: Nine times are IS, and s and
/ are 8; 9 times are 81, and and 2
are 8; times 5 are As, and 5 and 4
are 8; times 6 are 81, and 4 and 5
are 8; times are SO. and 3 and 6
are 8; times are ~. and and Z
are 8; 8 time are 81, and | and s are
8. He might have added that any
number in the hundreds of thousands
multiplied by will give product
the sum of whose digits is a multiple
of 9. Take at random-9 times 545
are 1905, the sum of which is Is. and
9 into IS goes times. Take 1852
multiplied by equals 66,16s; the sum
of the digits is 81; 9 into 81 goes
3 times. oh, there is an immense
amount of fun in 9.

Gilpin County Activity.

The production of gold. silver, cop
per, lead. zinc and other precious met
ais for 1906. in Gilpin county, will to-
tai up from s3,0OO,O0O to s3,500.O00, it
being difficult to arrive at the exact
production on account of the leasing
system being so much in vogue in the
older districts of the county, and for
which no accurate account is to be OBJ
tanned.
The progress of the Newhouse tun-
mel. under Quartz hill, is being watched
closely. Gilpin county people realize
that it is going to be the biggest thing
Of the century.

The precious metal production and
also that OF tungsten shows slight
falling off this year. compared with
last. due in the case of precious metals
TO the fact that only the high-grade ore
has been sent to the smelter from
many of the biggest producers Of the
county. while the lowgrade has been
retained to be treated by the several
new mills that are now nearing compile
ton. On this account, the average
value of the ore shipped from Boulder
county this year has jumped from
S27.30 in 1905 10 s51.2O in 1906.
The coming year promises a record
breaking production. The many big
mills which are nearing completion,
which have been built after exhaustive
tests, have demonstrated their adapta-
bility to the ore and will increase the
production several fold.
The big j00-ton Langridge cyanide
mill. on South Boulder, will commence
operations in few days on full ton
mage; the Wano tifty-ton cyanide mill.
at jamestown, will be in operation in
side of the next thirty days; the fifty
ton cyanide mill OF the InterOcean
company will be ready for ore in about
ninety days. and about the first of July
the 1O0-ton concentrating mill on the
Boulder County mine will be in opera
ton. At Magnolia ground is being
groken for a twenty-tive-ton MILL and
at Sugar Loaf work on twenty-ton
mill will commence the first of the
year AT Ward two new mills are pro-
jected and it is said work will com.
mence within the next thirty days.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

A squealing pig that appeared to want
its mother. or at least was young enough
to be in that class. was at the meeting to-
day of the stock exchange. and it seemed
to be quite as much at a loss as to what to
do as did Mr.. Griffin Halstead. who found
himself Unexpectedly the owner of the ami
NAL owing to the thoughIfulness of some
friends of his who were afraid he would
not have stock of that sort on his place in
the country. The porker was brought in
by Mr.. Hendrick in hat box, but as soon
as the cover was removed the animal re-
fused to be contented any longer with his
quarters.
The call proceeded, however. in spite of
the pig and his squeals. but there was not
much business done. The changes made in
the figures were not of any significance
and the market presented about the same
characteristics as 1t has for several days
past.
