EDISON WORKING ON
TREATMENT SYSTEM.

II. B. Clifford, of New York, prin-
cipal owner in the Gem mines In
Clear Creek county and who has ex-
tensive mine interests in Gilpin coun-
ty, was visitor yesterday. He came
over from Idaho Springs to arrange
for carload shipment of low grade
ore which he will ship with car
load from Clear Creek to the labor
atory of Thomas A. Edison, at
Orange, N. ].
Mr.. Clifford has interested the
noted inventor in the matter of
low grade ores, and the shipment of
two cars of ore from this and Clear
Creek county will be used in test
ing the proficiency of the new sys-
tenn that Edison has about perfected.
The ore gathered for this test is
being selected from among a num-
Der of mines, ton or two from each
being taken to make up the two cars.
Several mining operators of the two
counties who have taken an interest
L.
Clifford are assisting in securing the
ore.
Mr.. Clifford said while here that
If the experiments showed the sue
cessful extraction of values from 5000
and $500 ore, which from the tests
already made on a small scale assure
the absolute certainty of the prac-
ticability of Edison's scheme, mill
of 1000 tons daily capacity would be
erected either in Idaho Springs or
Denver.
1t has been twenty years since Mr..
Edison devoted any of his time to
metallurgical experiments and his at
tention at this time to the treatment
of ores, particularly those of a low
grade, is to be regarded as somewhat
of a favor to the mining industry
Years ago the inventor mastered the
problem of ore concentration and at
Edison, n. j., erected a great iron
concentrator at the expenditure of
in 1891 on the extraction of copper
pyrites and the following year Sc
cured patents on the extraction of
gold from sulphides.
} Mr.. Clifford would not make krown
the Edison process of extraction. He
said this was being kept a secret un-
til all ths patents covering the new
j process have been secured.s NJ. Cliff
ford will leave during the coming
week for New Jersey and viii be at
the Edison laboratories when the
final tests of the Eidson system
are made. Mr. Clifford was very en-
thusiastic over the extraction sys-
tenn that Mr.. Edison has perfected
and says it is bound to revolutionize
the metal mining industry and be the
means of starting many low grade
properties in this and Clear Creek
counties that are now dormant.

THE ELUSIVE "sHAMus."

Given the freedom of the corridor
of the county jail "Shamus" O'Brien,
who was locked up last week charg-
ed with attempting TO make away
with a wagon load of ore from the
bins of the Clifford mine in Wood
pecker gulch, made his escape at an
early hour last Tuesday morning and
has not yet been apprehended. 1t is
believed that "Shamus" left George
town by way of Silver Dale. and pick
ed up a horse at Edith lake owned
by VIM. Goehel. which he rode as fa-
as the Evans ranch on Bear creek,
At the latter place O'Brien was for
tunate in meeting an auto bound for
the capital city and enjoyed a ride
to the valley.-Clear Creek Miner.
"Shamus" has the authorities of
Clear Creek and Gilpin counties
guessing as to his whereabouts. but
residents of the Nevadayille section
say they have seen him in that
neighborhood during the past two or
three days. When ne made his get
away from the Georgetown jail the
sheriff here was telephoned and
searched the county for the fugitive
but could see nor hear nothing o.
the elusive "Shamus." 1t is said that
a reward of $4,000 has been posted
for his apprehension but others claim
that he Is not wanted az all; that
the ore he is said to have stolen
didn't amount to much.

ball tossers to appear on the local
grounds in many seasons-the Cliff
Dwellers, of Denver,-slipped one
over on the home boys Sunday, the
was fast and interesting. The clock
like work of the visitors infield and
the frequent rank plays of the Mines
team, combined to make the game
look as good as the score would in
dicate.
Smith, the visiting pitcher, held
the Mines sluggers helpless through
out the entire game. Only once-in
the eighth-did the local boys have as
much as look-in. In this stanza the
home boys averted a coat of white
wash, on the only poor playing done
by the visitors during the game. But
this rally was short-lived, and not
enough runs were scored to win the
game. Up until this time Pitcher
Smith held the locals to stingy hits
both being made by Altvater. He
allowed only one more hit, that start
ing the rally in the eight, and was
made by Boggio.
Campbell started the heaving for
the Mines, but weakened in the
fourth. After passing two men to
first with the bases full each time
forcing in two runs, he was relieved
by Parsons, who finished the game
in his usual able manner.
The home boys don't seem to be
able to play together. In no game
this season have they failed to Sc
cure less than six errors in a game,
which can easily explain the cause
o. the three defeats out of the five
games played. Parsons has averaged
10 strikeouts TO the game in the four
out of five he has pitched. It's
hard luck to lose games with such
good box work. But the locals will
have to 10 more playing together be-
fore they can hope to win games.
But then, at this writing it. don't
look very favorable for any more
base ball. The attendance at the last
two games has been slim, the Eat
rcnage OF the grauistand SO poor
and the tightness of the wallflowers
SO evident that the team has run be-
hind close TO the half hundred mark.
Get busy sports and loosen up. You
will find that Sunday is a pretty long
day without some amusement, and
the great national game is conced-
ed to be the most popular entertain
ment If you have another chance,
fill the grandstand. If You can see
better from the walls. drop your lit

I passed If you can't help fill the
grandstand, at least help fill said hat

good base ball, but will put more gin

can all see, is what is needed as
much, almost. as the money to pay
visiting teams expenses.

MORE BEAUTY IN MEMS pRI

MORE BEAUTY IN MEMS DRESS
From London comes the threat of
revolutionary changes in the fashions
Tor men. There the demand for sweep.
ing improvements is expected to pro.
duce modes which will restore to mas
culine toys some of the beauty which
they possessed in earlier years and
Will combine it with utility.
One must watch the London fashion
plates to see what progress will be
made in returning to the clothes of
earlier days, for as Paris is the source
of all feminine styles, so does London
speak the final word as to the dress of
the men. But it was in the French
capital that the need of change first
asserted itself There various author.
tiles seriously discussed the modifica,
tons that must come if masculine ha-
biliments are to be saved from the
hopeless ugliness that has character
lied them since the time of Louis
Philippe.
One French connoisseur proposed
that tailors adapt the vesture of all
occasions to the graceful and easy
outlines of the comfortable garments
worn at golf. Another held that so
long as mems clothes allowed freedom
of movement to a degree which show
ed the lines of the figure, there was
no need of change beyond abolition of
the abOminable haut de forme or
Sticky, which should be driven out of
use and sight. The English manner
of dressing so delights one amateur
who may reasonably be suspected of
that he thinks nothing
much matters so long as London
modes are followed the world over.
More specific was the recommendation
of the thinker who found no costume
so rich in beauty, so comfortable and
so expressive of the spirit of the age
a frock coat made with loose flowing
outlines and Turkish fez. In a dis
cussion of the single period that
might most appropriately be restored
in full for the use of the present gen
Grafton there was a word of approval
for every one since the day of the
toga, with the exception of the epoch
of the Incroyables. OF this eccentric
raiment nobody spoke with favor
So London tailors are said to be
bordering on plan to meet the inter-
national desire for greater variety in
mems dress. Many similar intima-
lions of return to older models have |
been heard in the past. There has
rarely been any more palpable result
than the sight of an adventurous and |
rather youthful man of society clad in
a gray or purple evening suit. That
is usually the end of such sartorial |
revolutions. So it may be that even |
