After exhaustive tests, together with
the experience gained by treating Gold
field ores in the Combination mill,
plans were made for a 100 stamp mill
and cyanide plant capable OF treating
about 600 tons per day. On account OF
the advantages of slope, room for tar
ings, and accessibility by railroad the
site was selected on the west side OF
Columbia Mountain.
On January 18th, grading was COM
menced, and at the present writing the
crusher plant, belt conveyor, mill ore
bins, stamps, amalgamation tables, tube
mills and classifers are complete and
ready to operate. The concentrators
are being put in and the. cyanide de-
partment is half completed. The steel
structure is about two-thirds finished,
and the American Bridge company
PROMISES to complete the building by
November 18th. We have every rea-
son TO believe that the mill will be fin
ished and ready for operation by Jan
uary 1st, 1909.
On January oath, 1908, grading for
broad gauge railroad to connect the
mines and mill was commenced. TINS
road is about two miles in length, and
has been completed and in operation
for some time. 1t is equipped with our
own locomotive and six steel, hopper
bottom ears, with capacity of % tons
each.
Treatment Of Concentrates

Combination mill have formerly been

velopment evidencng clearly that the middle really
vein and this promises large and rich bodies
at the points of intersection.
The formation is now definitely determined to be a
contact between dacte and late andesite. Between
walls the ledge is places feet in thickness,
with dip ranging from forty-fve to nearly eighty
degrees making the apparent thickness much greater.
OF the ifty-three feet in question, all but ten feet is
of commercial grade, several feet breaking high
shipping worth.
Unlike its neighbor, Great Bend the Daisy lead
carries but small amount of bases, although the
richest samples do not carry visible gold.
Ore of this nature must be, and is, carefully
sayed. string of samples taken from all parts of
the formation during visit ranged from traces to
four figures the sample being piece of country
rock and the best 07o being five inches. This

width of the stope goes to the bins
A peculiar feature of the high enrichments of the
Daisy is that the single double gold telluride the
latter being a type of sylvante, follow
pulverized white quartz, itself not nearly
rich as the accompanying ribbons of high grade.
The length of the principal shoot has not yet been
determined but it has been proven for at least $50
feet with either end in virgin ground. The shoot is
believed to extend least the 200 level and it is
being sought for the 400 level.
In the latter workings a strong flow of water has
been encountered within the past few days, indicating
proximity to contact. As the vein this level
is proven up, Mr.. Mitchell will give The News oppor
tunity for another inspection of the property
While plans for mill are still in the formative
PERIOD the management expects begin installation of
a fifty or 100-ton plant before long. The site is
IDEAL the ground having plenty of slope, while there
certainly is no lack of water.

DOING EXTENSIVE WORK.

One of the most extensive mining op-

company, of which Captain Hooper is
general manager.
The company is running tunnel half

mately 900 feet to connect shafts sew

ready been gained, the distance made
being about 200 feet month. The

Having made such remarkable sue

other portion of Consolidated estate.
Some weeks ago, just before the
Goldfeld Consolidated Mines company
announced its determination to let no

secured an eighteen months leasehold
on the eastern portion of the Hazel

As the Daisy neared the mine it noted
that the bins overfowing and that dump

Four large wagons passed the road, either

Gently we have discovered a method
by which we can successfully treat our
concentrates. The extraction by this
method is equal to that allowed by the
smelter, while the cost of reduction will
not exceed one-sixth of the freight and
smelter charges. The saving to your
company by the local treatment of con-
centrates will amount to about $250,000
per annum.
The greater part of the concentrates
produced by the Combination mill dur
ing the past year have been treated in
temporary plant and complete plant
is being installed in connection with
our new mill.

A NOVEL ENTERTAINMENT.

A novel form of entertainment is a calendar tea. This festivity is especial ly adapted to adult companies past the dancing age.
 The invitations are written on the blank side of the Title calendars which can be obtained at stationery store
 The amusement consists of series of guessing games appropriate to the calendar idea.
 For one of these have large circu- lar table on which place little objects or pictures clipped from magazines representing the different days, months and seasons.
 Thus, a parchment roll tied with ribbon stands for June, the month of graduation; gilt star for Decem- Der, when the star of Bethlehem is eel ebrated; an apple tied to string for October and Halloween; picture of a puritan, Thanksgiving.
 Each little object or picture should be identified with a number card by which it can be guessed. Give slip calendar for the best guess.
 Another game is founded or literary and historic allusions and quotations concerning months. Example:
 What great person was warned to beware of the ides of March?
 Twelve such questions are written on cards with spaces for the answers left blank. These the players are requir- ed to fill out. A prize in the form of & perpetual calendar is given for the best set of guesses.

TABLE DECORATION.

The little flower pots of Dresden, either genuine or imitation, make the most charming table decorations.
 For less elaborate decoration on the everyday table nothing could be dainti- CT than one of these little pots with a tiny pink flower or one of the novel, ties in dwarf trees.
 The perfect little trees are only about six or eight inches in height and are now brought to such a perfec- ton that they are welcome change from the various little ferns that have been used for so long.
 4 pretty specimen of artistic bas- ketware is shown in basket of snow-white plaited straw, with quaint ly curved handles of dark brown cane. It contains several growing plants of small variety and makes a charm ing centerpiece for a large dinner ta- ble or for the table at children's party
 Never have there been so many kinds of ornamental baskets as are now to be found at the florists shops, one particularly charming design be- ing a fiat square basket made of rich reddish-brown twigs closely interwov- en and vanished. and provided with a high handle of the same warm-hued twigs.
 This is fascinating and highly or namental receptacle for cut flowers, or. as it possesses a tin lining, for hold ing bulbs, such as daffodils, tulips or hyacinths.

 While the oil of almond may be used to make the icing, it is much bet ter if made from the fresh nuts Blanch and pound in mortar to a smooth paste one ounte of sweet all monds and few bitter ones. Add a little rose water when the almonds begin to look oily.
 This can he mixed either with con- fectioners' sugar and white of egg. or it is even better when used with plain boiled icing.

For street wear the shot effects in black and color are well liked, but are at their best only in silk or high priced lisle, and among cheaper hosiery the plain, fine lisle or cotton with docking is the best choice.
