How Silver Mines Form.
The process by which nature
forms her silver mines is very in
teresting. 1t must be remembered
that the earth's crust is full Of wa
ter, which percolates everywhere
through the rocks, making solutions
Of elements obtained from them.
These solutions take up small par
ticles of precious metal which they
ind here and there. Sometimes tho
solutions in question are hot, the
water having got SO far down as to
be set boiling by the internal heat
of the globe. Then they rush up
ward, picking up the bits of metal
as they go. Naturally heat assists
the performance of this operation.
Now and then the streams thus
formed, perpetually flowing hither
and thither below the ground, pass
through cracks or cavities in the
rocks, where they deposit their lodes
Of silver.

the victims OF last Fridays explosion.
When tonight'A force OF rescuers went
on duty there had been total of 225

been buried. Others were brought out
in groups OF two and three at short
intervals:

today did not bear the brass checks
used in the company's system of rec
ords ard accounts OF n majority OF its
employees, thus substantiating the
statements of Monday that large
number OF men and boys In the mines
were not included In the checking
rolls upon which estimates of the dead
were largely based. This has also al
most dispelled the hope expressed by
mining officials the past few days
that the number OF dead had l.sen
overestimated. There is reason to
believe tonight that the number will
not fall shot OF 300
y canvass of miners homes will be
completed tomorrow and this together
with list of hundreds OF letters I'M
claimed will furnish data for n new
and probably more accurate estimate.
Conditions outside the mine tonight
n~e much improved through the freez-
ing solid of the mud. making the
work much easier. An opening be-
tween the two mines was completed
tonight and It is believed that With
IN forty eight hours all tho bodies
found will have been taken to the
morgue.
Over fifty funerals We're held today.
On each casket there was a bunch OF
American roses or white carnations.
The source of the flowers remained
secret until late IN the day when II
was learned that Miss Elizabeth
