where rivers have their sources in high

thing from them when there comes .
sudden melting from the SHOWS. But
the Seine does not rise in the mountains;
il rises in . plateau in southeastern
France; it is only about $500 miles long.
and all the tributaries it takes in come
from the low country and are small

The present food can only be account

We can understand why the Rhine il

NEW GOLD EXTRACTION PROCESS
p.,.n, Has Not Been Issued and Form
uIa Is Kept Secret

The great increase in the volume Of
gold production is not as yet deterring
ambitious metallurgists from inventine
new processes, the intent OF which is to
cbeapen the cost Of extraction and in
other ways enlarge the output, says
Mining aud Financial News.
The latest inventor OF such q process
to achieve prominence is located In n
of the most unlikely places in the world
for such q performance-Manitoba. Can
ada. He has devised a process. includ-
ing q chemical formula, which is as yet
q secret, the patent having not been
issued. According to the United States
Consul at Winnipeg, the ore is pulped
either by a wet or dry pulverizer, /.
placed In a Dramatically sealed, wood
lined tank, and treated with this chem
ical solution. Air is pumped into the
tank and an even pressure and tempera-
ture maintained. The teaching process
is kept up for 48 hours. after which the
solution Is drawn off and fed into an
amalgator.
The amalgamator consists OF two re-
ceptacles. resembling n iron pot In
verted in another. The ore passes into
the inverted pot through a ~perpendicu-
lar hollow shaft. and thence down to
the upright pot, which contains the
mercury, which is constantly agitated
by the rotary motion Of the shaft. This
agitation forces the tailings out through
a small opening in the top.
The cost is about 50 a ton. Its thor
oughness is illustrated by the fact that
ore submitted to the two leading assay
offices of Canada, one of which reported
no trace and the other a gold content OF
only 10 cents a ton. yielded a test by the
new method of si4.50 a ton.
Prospective increases iny.the worlds
annual output of gold are usually based
on the natural extension of mining OPP
erations, but the march of metallurgy.
illustrated by such examples as this,
cautions us to take into consideration
the possibility of a still greater advance
in the gold production of the future
than even that which the startling
figures Of statisticians now convey.

The New Big Comsfock Mines
The historic Comstock is taking on q
new lease Of life, thanks TO the recent
discovery and continued improve of the
Comstock Phoenix.a mine on the Bruins
wick lode about a mile east Of Virginia
City. Phenomenal showings are being
made, assays made yesterday from grab
samples showing values up to $2087. rs
per ton, Of which $1345. 90 was in gold
and $742.15 silver. This is the average
proportion of values throughout the mine
and also approximates the Comstock av-
erage, which runs about two-thirds gold
to one-third silver. Tue average of ore
milled from this mine runs about $50 q
ton, while the shipping ore goes about
$3.50. A 80 horse power electric hoist has
recently been installed, and it is report.
ed the management c~ontemplates the
erection of q mill. The working vein
averages about 10 feet wide, but a streak
Of high .grade along the hanging wall. 4
to 6 inches wide, runs from $1,000 to
5000 a ton. The Comstock has often
been reported as defuuct. bnt with a
mine like this opening up in territory
entirely virgin. there is no doubt of a
new and long lease Of life for Virginia
City.

Presidential Proclamation Changes Area
of kaibab National Forest, Arizona

changes are the result of a careful field
examination made last summer by tho
United States department of agriculture
IN pursuance of d general plan for the
darieS.
The area added contains some timber
but the addition was made mainly to
secure better administrative boundary,
Previous to this proclamation the west
ern boundary OF the forest hal been IN
the bottom Of deep, narrow canyons, To-
cally known as Snake sulch and Kanab
canyon. Most OF the watering places Tor
STOCK grazing upon the adjacent range
within this forest were within these TWO
gulches. Some outside stock came into
these same watering places. which re-
suited in the constant mixing of the
stock The new boundary will enable all
the stock TO be taken care Of without
mixing. In addition. the fact that The
Top or the cliffs bordering the western
edges OF the canyons forms the new
boundary line, VIII make IL possible by
the construction Of less than mile OF
fence, TO effectually close the forest
boundary for nearly $50 miles so that
the trespass of stock from without or
the escape of stock from within the for
est VIII be practically impossible. The
petition requesting this addition was
signed by practically all the local set
tiers concerned.
The elimination consists OF seventeen
sections OF land adjacent to the north
west boundary OF the forest The area
eliminated Is covered with grass and a
scattering growth OF juniper and pinon
and Is chiefly valuable for grazing pur-
poses. The changes made by this proc
lamatlon do not affect the boundaries of
the Grand Canyon game preserve or the
Grand Canyon national monument both
OF which lie partially within the kaibab
national forest.
