Solving MelaIIurglCdI Problem.

Another metallurgical problem is be-
ing solved by the Evergreen Gold and
Copper Mines company at its group of
mines and recently constructed mill in
the Apex district, Gilpin county. When
the mill was started up it was learned
that the amount of silica carried in the
ores was excessive to marked degree
rendering the concentrates undesirable
at the average gold-copper smelter.
The mill is now being renovated and
made to conform with the average ma
terial. The total value per ton of the
first shipment of concentrates was
$23. so. The amount of silica carried
was Ga per cent of the total weight, and
accounts, says President Grayson, for
the low value in copper" Six tons into
one was the basis of concentration,
which places the value of crude Ever
green ore, so far as this shipment is
concerned, at close to 81 per ton. There
was some silver in the ore, say close to
two ounces to the ton. The Evergreen
mill was constructed by Denver com-
pany of the highest standing, which
probably accepted the fire assays as the
true test of values contained in the av-
erage material, without reference to the
excess silica or other unusual factors. -

A Biz Attraction al the Armoru.

Harry Davidson, perhaps the most
wonderful skater the world has ever
seen, will be at the Armory rink COM
mencing Thursday, October 18th. He
will be here Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday evenings and give an exhibition
of fancy and trick skating that has
never been equalled, and his tricks are
all new. The press from all quarters of
the country speak very highly of him
and his medals of which he has over 100,
speak for themselves. He has won
over all comers not only in speed, grace,
but in fancy skating. If four or five
skaters think that he is easy, he will
skate relay race with the bunch and
will undoubtedly defeat them. The ad-
mission to the Armory is only Is cents
and if you wish to skate, the price is
25 cents. Don't miss this opportunity
but come out and enjoy yourself.

Tony Caessaro and party returned
Wednesday from their trip to Routt
county on hunting expedition. The
trip was most successful one, and of
course it is impossible to bring meat to
all and few favorite ones were served,
who no doubt will return the compli-
ment when the opportunity presents it.
self. These fellows are true sportsmen
and the game they bag 10 worth going
miles after. Billy Quintrall, the famous
scout, was in the party, and that is an
assured fact that the trip was all that
was expected. Routt county is the
stamping grounds for these hunters and
has been for many years, making the
trip annually, and on these hunts they
get more game than all the rest of the
hunters combined. Tony is considered
sure shot, and when he gets his eagle
eye centered on Mr.. Buck, the game is
all off.

Lightning Plucks a Bird.

Lightning did come queer stunts
here during storm, among them the
knocking of all but a solitary feather
which, strange to relate, still lives to
bear mute evidence of the occurrence,
says the Columbus Despatch.
The hawk was found under the tree
which had been struck the following
morning, when the hands on the |. D..
Stone farm were inspecting the work
of the storm. The bird was barely
alive and, stripped of all but the one
feather, presented a sorry appearance.
1t was taken to the house and fed and
bids fair to recover.

From southern exchange comes the
glad tiding that the now despised and
odoriferous pole cat will soon take its
place as an ornament and joy among
perfumes. A farmer dosing his chickens
for lice with coal oil discovered that it
gave the eggs an elusive coal oil flavor.
Having skunk ranch, the above fact
gave this farmer brilliant idea. Not
liking the natural odor of the animal he
now mixes in his skunk feed, lavender,
bergamot, and orange flowers and the
results are certainly fastidious. Over
his pole cat farm now hangs delicate
scent which vies with the violet and
puts the musk and magnolia to shame.
Science is certainly performing wonders
nowadays.

judge of the First Judicial district to
succeed Flor Ashbaugh, meets with the
hearty approval of the greater number
of our residents. Judge Mccall is known
as an able jurist throughout the state,
man who is fearless and just and who
will administer justice to each and all

been made by Judge Ashbaugh that he
had no use for Georgetown or any of
its residents, was not appreciated, as
he will probably learn after the votes
