The WORLDS
LARGEST STACK

The Boston and Montana Mining
company is erecting, at its Great
Falls. Montana, reduction works,
what will be the worlds largest stack
upon it's completion. It's total height
will be 500 feet; diameter at the top,
fifty feet; diameter at base. seventy
eight feet six inches; concrete foun-
dation, twenty-five feet deep, 1913
feet in diameter; weight 100000
pounds; inside volume, 1.396,00O
cubic feet. The Alphons Custodis
Chimney Construction company is in
charge of the work. using its perfor-
ated radial chimney block in the
stack construction. 1t has, been fig
ured that the total weight of the fin
ished work will be 34.8O0,O00
pounds.
The stack will create a natural
draught that will save the company
large fuel and power bill, and a
fortune more will be saved in flue
dust-fine ore-which is now blown
up through the old stack and dis
tributed over the surrounding coun-
try.
The dust will be arrested and pre-
cipitated by means of new system
developed at the Great Falls smelter.
1t consists of a veritable forest of
fine wires, which sway suspended
| from the ceiling of the dust chamber.
There will be 100000 of these
wires. More than 1000 hoppers have
been built to receive this dust. They
discharge automatically into cars
which carry the dust direct to the
charging floor of the reverberatory
furnaces, where it is smelted.
There are so many tracks under
this gigantic dust chamber that it
resembles the freight yard of a big
railroad system. A total of 7,000,-
900 pounds of structural steel is be-
ing used in the construction of these
fues and dust chambers.
When the stack, dust chamber,
flue, and concentration and smelter
additions are completed, they will
represent an investment of $780,
900, all from earnings.

pensive nonsense has cost, in its con-
Trajectory calculations, the heroic
struggle to adapt a law to conditions
that its empirical definition did not
embrace, grand per cent of the to-
tai that mines of the west have pro-
duced.
Beginning thirty years ago, we un-
dertook the demonstration of two
walls, and made stout contest that,
though dissimilar, they were walls
which, taken together with their in
cluded content, made a vein, and at
the cost of millions we forced the
supporting judicial Endorsement.
THE CONTACT VEIN.
To compass that definition we in
vented the term contact vein," fore
ing a new employment of a sub
stantive converted to adjective duty.
Then we CHANGED upon the trying
condition of a vein with one shat
tered wall, the hanging portion be-
ing a conglomerate broken and in
terminglingly confused, and judicial
gravity finally recognized this vein
whose upper crust was thus broken
and eroded, but the very duce was to
pay when the hanging wall extended
as a blanket and the foot wall pre-
cociously went to smash, and the
content of the vein, released chemi-
cally, percolated at pleasure and OPP
| portunity, and we had to contend
| for this tip-over and disturbance
in the process. We drew sharply the
definition of rock, and meant
thereby material whose grain and
texture permitted classification, and
whose homogeneous consistency re.
quired blasting to shatter.
The theory on which the law was
! founded took no account of detritus
but called for denuded formation
evidently considering there never hat
been greater prominence or uplift
and that the world was, as the poe
describes it,

WHAT IS A VEIN?

AaNuNar8-oSOroro-N-GN
The following well written article
defining what constitutes vein was
written for the Goldfield Tribune by
the Hon. j. w. Deane, who is high
in authority in mining circles:
What is a vein' has been much
mooted of late as to the conditions
of Goldfield formations.
A typical vein is that condition OF
material, unlike that which it in
closes, resting between materials
like or unlike as to each other, and
which has the three dimensions of
length, bredth and thickness, and
the latter dimensions may be barely
more than a strain, or it may be
hundreds of feet.
The content of the vein thickens
and thins, sprangles irregularly,
and the ores have tendency to center
into masses, usually lenticular, with
edges as irregular as the most
notched seacoast Shoots may lie
quite close to shoots, or they may be
hundreds of feet apart, the interval
too low in value to remove except in
exploratory work
The immense vein at Aspen, Colo
RADIO, consists of all the formations
that are included between the sand
stone hanging wall and the granite
| foot wall, both barren, and is made
up of carbonate of lime, lime dolo.
matized, shales, variously mineraliz.
ed, accumulated materials of sedi
mentary origin, layer upon layer
whose 60 degrees tilt was given by
the uplift of the underlying granite
land the porphyry, whose intrusion
had been made possible by that up
lift, and whose ramifications were
between the folds it could separate
following planes of least resistance
naturally, and whose heat had great
er or less degree metamorphoset
surroundings, even to the extent 0
impregnating masses of absorptiv'
rock with minerals through vaporiZa
ton.
Mineralizations is the Academia
feature of these veins, whose perfec
ton. has no regard to the values tina
they may or may not contain.
COMPARED TO A PIE.
A homely illustration may b
drawn from pie, the crusts bein
walls, and the whether or not palat
able content completing the smile.
Our mining laws are based upo
the then uncertain conception of fis
sure veins or conditions, which seem
to have been that of a nearly vertics
crack in granite, filed with ono
molten material which welled III
, forced by expansion, to occupy tn
3 prepared place, coming quite to @
/ within ten feet of surface and i
, width to be covered by the diner
r sions of a shaft, and hence the al

d the lowest rim thereof to a well-dt
e fined crevice," as applied to cond
t lions as we know them.

In the neigh bOrhoOd Of $40 was raised
last season and deposited for this pur-
pose. The fountain was not to be built
until sufficient funds were raised to erect
one that would be a joy forever. As the
time approached for this years game,
several parties circulated a petition to
have the fund diverted for the use OF the
fire department and give up the drinking
fountain. The petition was signed Dy
many OF the business men, Mr. Kaiser
and the promoters OF the fountain queS-
ton protested, and considerable discus
sion followed. However, at a meeting OF
the business men last evening IL was de-
Cided to let the fund go for its original
purpose. and to use the proceeds Of this
years game-which viii sOCn be called

WAITS LAST DAYS FRIGHTENED BY

his rescders knew him IN the first place

laid to test yesterday in the cemetery at
Bountirui, near the spot which he had

where he had been cared for in the first
years after It was founded Taken from
the streets some years ago, rescued from
vicious influences and the terrible neg
lect which had bred in him the white
plague, he was taken with the homeless
boys who formed the first colony at Can
yon Crest. Sam grew TO love the ranch
dearly, and within a very short time
showed that, despite the fearful life he
had led, he was at heart a good boy.
Then came a severe illness. and. through

the efforts of the Hospital Aid society, he
was taken TO St Marks hospital and
cared for there through long months OF
sickness But the kindly physicians could
give the good women who had championed
his cause no hope Of his recovery.
When he was able to be moved. he was
taken back to his beloved Canyon Crest,
where, through the Red Cross committee
OF the Womans league, a full equipment
for him had been placed. and where,
through these last few months he has
lived in cheerful happiness, cultivating
his garden and caring for great beds of
the flowers which were his friends.

PITTSBURG. Pa. Aug. 19.-Who!e-

penitentiary has just been frustrated by
the discovery of tunnel which was be-
ing driven from the prison to Il point
just outside the walls. She authorities
have discovered what seems proof that
it was a well-laid pot TO secure the
escape of members Of the famous bank
ers' colony inside the prison.
While the prison authorities are not
talking of what has been found. it IS
understood they have grounds for belief
that if the tunnel. which was within two
days work of completion. had been driv-
Ell its full length Bankers William Mont
gomery and j. b. Z. Rinehart, who are
doing fifteen years each, would have
been among the first to get through. IN
any event, the prison dungeons have
been filed with members of the colony
of bankers.
The discovery was made al midnight
last Thursday. but matters have been
kept quiet hoping that those who were
assisting from the outside might make
themselves known and be captured. but
the news leaked out Wednesday. =
