Federal court this morning, Judge
Boyd sentenced Sidney Allen, whom the
jury last night found guilty of perjury,
to two and half years in the At

and fine of $500. Judge Boyd in
passing sentence said he had taken in
to consideration the recommendation
of the jury for leniency, the fact THAI
the costs probably would amount to
$1.5o0. and the further fact that Allen
was man Of considerable wealth and
influence. of good standing in this
county in Virginia. and the pain and

CONCENTRATES.

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Silver added to gold in small
amount forms a green alloy
which is employed by manufac-
turing jewelers..
Copper-matte can be success
fully made in either blast-fur-
naces or in reverberatories. The
latter type of furnace is general
ly used for the treatment of fine
ore and concentrate.
Burning oil, gasoline, alcohol,
or other burning liquid should be
extinguished with sand, soil, or
even flour. Never throw water
on a blazing liquid, for it is likely
to cause the flames to spread.
Outcrops of silicious iron ores
which show no sign of copper at
the surface sometimes develop
into valuable mines. The Iron
Mountain copper mine of Shasta
county, California, was one of
that kind. The silicious iron out
crop was first worked for silver,
no copper being seen in the ore.
Innovation in underground
methods has been as much fea-
ture of mining practice the past
few years as the numerous
changes in metallurgical treat
ment of ores. The methods
which a few years ago were con-
sidered the best, as indeed they
were, have been abandoned in
some districts for those that are
newer and better, because less
expensive, safer, and. in some
cases easier than the old methods.

The Mexican War.

1t has been learned over the ;
telegraph wire from Fronteras,
which the rebels have been using
that the entire federal army had
moved out of the mountains to
the southwest of Aqua Prieta
and is now in the Nacozari valley
between Fronteras and Aqua
Prieta.
Americans riding horseback
toward Douglas passed this fed
eral force during the day. The
combined strength of the federal
army is placed at between 100
and 1400 men, considerably ex-
ceeding the rebel force at Aqua
Prieta. 1t is believed that the
federals under Colonel Pedro
Ojeda, which has been advanc-
ing from Urels, and the forces Of
Chief of Rurales Medina Barron,
with other federal leaders who
came out of Cananea, formed a
junction somewhere in the Ojo
mountains and are now about
ready to deliver thc:r attack
against Aqua Prieta.
It is assumed that the coming
engagement at Aqua Prieta will
be of a desperate character.

takes it's place at the head OF the
list of the many desirable mining
properties in the district.
Messrs. Johnson and Cooper
have drifted 70 feet on the eX-
tension of the Buckhorn vein
where it crosses the Franklin
group and have encountered
some very good milling ore Of
the same character as that eX-
posed in the Buckhorn drift. 1t
is their intention to continue de-
velopment on the vein until the
ore shoot which looks so promis-
ing on the surface is reached.
H. j. Rice who has the Wander
group under bond is working two
shifts driving a cross-cut tunnel
for the vein. This tunnel is be-
ing driven on a stringer or spur
from the main vein and shows
some rich ore.
Postmaster johnson has about
completed a new set of letter
boxes for the postoffice which
occupies one corner of his general
merchandise establishment.

porate a company for mine de-
velopment and exploitation. A
much better way would be to
hold eff for awhile, doing the
best they can in the meantime,
and possibly interesting few
individuals in their holdings. In
time, if they are able to demon
strate, even in a limited way, the
possibilities Of their claims,
there are plenty Of men to be
found, and who are waiting for
the chance, to form and properly
finance a company that will have
something back of it more sub
stantial than a mere corporate

'why incorporate unless there
is something tangible to work on?
Lung Diseases Among Miners
DR.. Crumpston, commits
sioner of the West Australian
government, appointed to inves-
tigate the causes Of lung diseases
among the miners of the country
has recently presented a careful
ly prepared report. He is said
to have visited every mining dis
trict in the state and to have ex-
amined 2,050 miners, 1906 of
whom were actually at work
when the examination took place.
DR.. Crumpston had very care
fully collated statistics dealing
with lung diseases for the past
decade, and from these it appears
that tuberculosis Of the lungs
among miners has steadily IN
creased, while pneumonia has de-
creased. At all ages between 25
and 60 the percentage of deaths
is higher among miners than
among the general population. =

Amalgamation Temperature

O1OAI O@A1 - O1 q SStA w.
1t has long been noted by mill
men that amalgam contains more
gold in winter than in summer.
This has been ascribed to the
warmer water in summer making
the amalgam more fluid; ANAL
gam retorting 40 per cent in
summer may retort 45 per cent
in winter. Experiment does not
conclusively demonstrate that
there is a temperature of which
the affinity of quicksilver for gold
is at a maximum, but expert
ment does seem to show that in
battery amalgamation there is a
greater saving Of fine gold at a
temperature of SO degrees f.

ture of 60 or 70 degrees. Mining

Buckhorn Shows Good
Ore.
COEUR d ALENE in RICH ORE
Other Properties all Showing
Well Under Development.

Engineer w. G. McNutt who
has just returned from the Ten
Mile district. reports that recent
development work has shown up
some fine bodies of ore in prop
critics located in the vicinity of
the new postofice of Golden.
The Buckhorn tunnel has been
driven 300 feet on the vein and
shows some splendid milling ore.
The main ore shoot was encount-
cred at about 200 feet and has
been followed for a distance of
over 100 feet, the ore body ex-
tending the full width of the
drift which in places shows Z
feet of solid milling ore.
The drift attains a depth of
about 100 feet at the face and
gains depth at the rate. of about
one in three. 1t will require
only rs feet more to bring the
face of the drift direct under the
main big outcrop on the surface
where a large body of excellent
ore is exposed. The ore lays in
a contact between gneiss and
porphyritic felsite and is about
60 per cent free milling, the con-
centrates also running very high.
There is now on the dump 300 to
5OO-tons of ore that will mill $50
or better.
This property is under bond to
an eastern syndicate and the in
dications are that it will be taken
over and a mill constructed and
put in operation the coming
summer.
Work on the Coeur'd Alene
group is being confined to the
main lower drift which encount
cred the main ore shoot at about
1850 feet and has been driver
$50 feet on ore that shows free
gold to the naked eye in grea
many places. The drift cuts thu
ore body at a depth of 240 fee
vertical, but the ore shoot show
a very flat dip to the west whicl
gives depth on the ore of abou
400 feet. The ore is very mucl
the same character as that en-
countered in the upper leve
which is principally free-millinl
quartz.
The development of the ore a
this depth proves the property t
be one of the most valuable i
the district and shows that pluc

WHY INCORPORATE ?

An inspection of official records
will show the incorporation of
thousands of mining companies.
Mention of such incorporation
will be made in the newspapers,
and this, in all probability, will
ever be heard of nine-tenths of |
them: Notwithstanding the fact |
that, from time to time, some |
anxious enquirer will ask what |
such and such company is &C.
ing.
This being the case the ques-
tion may well be submitted:
"Why incorporated" And the
point is we'll taken, says the Salt
Lake Mining Review.
For some unknown reason the
owners Of a group of mining
claims seem to think that if they
can turn a prospect over to an
organized company that every
thing will be clear sailing there
after; that the success of the
enterprise is assured. Reason
ing on this basis they enlist the
attention and interest of acquain-
tances and friends, all Of whom,
doubtless, are as financially en-
barassed as they are themselves;
and proceed to incorporate, be-
lieving that with a corporate eX-
istence they will have no trouble
in enlisting capital in the fur
therance of the enterprise. This
done, they lay back waiting for
the money to flow in. But, it
doesn't flow worth cent, and
the new blood associated with
them proves to be STRIFE as far
= as results are concerned; and for
the simple reason that the per-
/ sonnel of the new association is
! lacking in every requisite neces-
l sary in the financing and devel-
opment of a mining proposition.
The result of such a combina-
! tion is so certain that it would be
2 waste Of time to even make ar
\ inquiry as to what is being done
/ And, no matter how promising
: or valuable the property of the
i company may be, the whole
proposition, ushered in with sucl
enthusiasm and with apparently
such bright prospects for the
t future, is practically dead before
e it is born.

best, small fraction of an inch |
on the indicator equaling a foot
or more in the shaft. Serious
accidents have resulted from
failure to provide side-marks on
the hoisting-reels, which indicate
accurately the position of the
skip.
Chuckblocks in stamp-mills are
intended to keep the height OF.
discharge as nearly uniform as
possible, the principal object be-
ing to prevent Shining Of the ore.
Where Shining is Objectionable,
those ores which have a natural
tendency to slime should be
crushed with the use of chuck
blocks. AS the die wears down,
the high chuckblock is replaced
by a lower one, thus preventing
to some extent the Shining which
would take place if the change
were not made. In some mills
the chuckblock has copper plate
attached to its inner edge; in
others it is fixed to a permanent
block inserted below the chuck
block. The former practice is
generally considered the better.
Amalgamation plates in front
of a stamp battery should be free
from the jar and vibration due
to the falling stamps, as the
shock appears to have a tendency
to disintegrate the amalgam,
thereby causing loss. 1t has
been demonstrated, however,
that an amalgamated copper
plate on a Gilpin county bump
ing table,, or on a vanner, from
which the belt has been removed
will hold passing particles of gold
better than a plate that is sta
) tionary. In the latter case the
machine was given the usua
vibratory movements, only the
travel being out Of use. A
small piece of copper plate placed
! on the spreader of a vanner di
rectly beneath the feed-pipe, will
accumulate gold if there is any
present, and free, in the pulp.

President Taft rightly gives cred
it to the Democracy for the ratifi-

growing band of insurgent RapuD-

party thrived and fattened on. But
the trough is split and the political
