GOOD WoRKaAT GOLD POINT.

Work is progressing at the new
chemical treatment plant being in
stalled at Gold Point, and sluicng will
begin some day next week. AS stated
before, the concentrates will be OBJ
tanned in the usual manner by sluic-
ing, and then the concentrates will be
treated by chemical action, the cya-
hide process applied to extract the
gold from the black sand. The gold
is very fine, and that is an advantage
in applying the chemicals. as the gold
is taken up in solution so much the
sooner on account of it's extreme fine
ness.
A small plant that was installed
last winter was such complete sue
cess that local people after becoming
familiar with the principle Of opera
ton subscribed most of the stock for
the erection of the large plant now
being completed.
The plant has been attracting much
attention for several weeks, and Local
people who visit the place out Of cur
iosity or to investigate the process,
often become stockholders before re.
turning, so feasible and simple seem
the plans of operation.
During the week past large mum
Der of people from Riverside have
gone over the works, and many OF
them have invested in stock, most
of them taking small blocks of a few
hundred dollars each, and it seems
to be the general opinion that the
operation of these mines will dc
much to increase business here

NEW USE FOUND FOR SAGE
BRUSH
Made to Yield $3O.96 in Wood Alco-
hoI, Charcoal and Other Pro-
ducts Per 4 Thousands Lbs.

The Salt Lake Deseret News in an
article on the use OF sage brush says:
utilizing with improved apparatus
an old principal in wood distillation,
a demonstration is being made in this
city at 231 south West Temple of a
process by which sagebrush, for many
years regarded almost as curse by
homesteaders, is forced OF yield in
various chemicals value of $3O.96
for each 1000 pounds. The products
of this distillation are. charcoal, 81
bushels; wood alcohol, IL gallons;
acetic acid 466 pounds; acetone, So
pounds; wood oil, 1870 pounds, creo-
sote oil, 61.6 lbs; pitch, 70 pounds;
calcium carbonate, 81 pounds. The
commercial value of the above yield,
the charcoal being figured on it's fuel
value at IL cents per bushel and the
price being all wholesale figures, is,
as stated 5000. When it is con
sidered that the charcoal will be in
great demand for uses in the arts
and medicine as superior grade Of
charcoal, this figure must be enlarg-
ed. 1t is calculated that it requires
1000 pounds of sagebrush to equal
one cord and all calculations have
been based on this figure.
Commercial Products
The commercial uses to which the
various products may be put are:
the acetic acid for use in the manu-
facture of acetates for use in calico
printing, waterproof wooden goods,
manufacture of artificial flavors and
varnish, white lead, coal tar colors,
explosives and vinegar; the acetone
in the manufacture of chloroform;
iodoform, smokeless powder, varnish
and as a solvent for gums in the
arts; wood alcohol in the manufac-
ture of varnish, coal tar dyes and
single stains; the creosote oil in
wood preservation; potassium car
Donate for use as a fertilizer, in the
glass industry, in the manufacture
Of soap and washing powder, caustic
potash, dyes, and for bleaching; cal
cium carbonate as metallurgical
| fux, in the manufacture of glass and
in the manufacture of carbon dioxide
| for use in soda water; the pitch for
use in weatherproof roofs, the; char
coal as fuel, in the arts and In the
| profession of medicine.
Works Both Ways
AS significant considerations in the
manufacture of these various pro-
ducts from sagebrush the financial
revenue to be derived from such an
undertaking is coupled with the bene-
fit it will do the west in general be-
cause of affording market for sage
brush and clearing the land now COW
cred with the growth. Officials COM
pute the area now covered with sage
brush as several millions of acres,
affording an almost infinite supply
for the manufacturing plants. The
sagebrush is removed with compare
lively slight difficulty from the tracts
by dragging over them triangle
constructed from heavy railroad iron,
traction engine being used as mo-
] tive power. With such an arrange
ment, 1t is said that as much as eight
acres per day may be cleared. A

weighs about two tons. The retorts

10 feet in height and about 40 feet

agreed with the promoters now in

What a Msmoryl

One rainy day in spring an old York
shire fisherman returned to his native
village after an absence OF fifteen
years and fearfully sought the house
which sheltered his deserted wife. En-
tering without knocking, he seated
himself near the open door. took a long
and vigorous pull at his dirty clay pipe
and nodded jerkily to "t'Owd woman"
"Mofnin', Maria" he said, with af-
fected unconcern.
She looked up from the potatoes she
was peeling and tried to utter the
scathing TRADE she had daily rehearsed
since his departure, but 1t would not
come.
"Ben," she said instead, once more
resuming her work, "bring the sen
DER to t fire an Anil darn that hole

The Firs worshipsrs.

Azerbaijan. a province In northwest
ern Persia, is the home Of the descend
ants OF the Ghebers, the ancient fire
worshipers of Persia. The whole coun-
tFyslde is admirably adapted to the
propagation Of IRE worshiping creed,
for earthquakes and caverns vomiting
fumes from subterranean eonhagra-
lions abound in the neighborhood OF
Tabri9. One Of the most remarkable
caverns in the world IL that OF Secun-
dereah, whose character resembles the
GrOtt0 del Cane of Naples. 1t gives Oh
nOxious fumes, which at certain times
are certain death to man and beast.
But the most astonishing place in
Azerbaijan lie the ruined city Of Takht-
i-Suleimaun, or SolomOn's temple. The
city stands on a hill $50 feet high, with
a wall of thirty feet embracing the
cFumbling remains Of temple and
shrine. In the midst Is lake OF
deepest azure" Although most OF the
buildings are of the Mohammedan pc
riod, there is one striking mass which
has been identified as the temple Of
the fire worshipers.
