TO IMPROVE COLORADO MINING.

\ movement has been inaugurated
by the Colorado Scientific Society
and the Colorado School of Mines
which will doubtless have a wide
spread beneficial effect on tho fu-
ture of Colorado mining. The propo.
sition is TO send out specialists in
the different departments of the
mining industry to read papers and
conduct meetings in the various min
ing districts from time to time, and
thus arouse more interest among the
min ars and mire managers in the
welfare OF each individual camp. as
we'll as TO secure a reduction cf op.
Grating costs by cooperation and
by a closer study of conditions in
ccch district. The purpose of the
specialists will he not so much to
instruct as to get the mining men
together to discuss conditions and
improvements and offer suggestions
which may lead TO more efficient eff
fort and greater economy OF opera
ton and perhaps better under
standing of ore occurrence and there
fore the cheapest means of develop

NEW STRIKE IN RAILS COUNTY

A. new strike of importance has
just been made on the noted Quartz
hill property, the Rails County mine.
In the 500-foot level at point $50
fee. east of the shaft, some twenty
inches CT copper-iron was struck and
an average assay returned as follows
gold, f.S0 ounces. silver, 1880 ounces,
copper, 5.708o with a total value of
s112.e0 per ton. Along with-Athis
smelling streak is a fine body of ore
of milling grade from to g feet
in width.
Regular shipments are being made
to the mill and smelter, and a large
force of men maintained on develop
ment work.
The present operations at this
mine have resulted in large ton,
mage of high grade. together with an
immense tonnage of payable low
grade ore being blocked out ready
to be broken and hoisted just as
soon as the development work out
lined by the management is complet
ed.
In the course of this development
/ traces of uranium oxide have been
/ found, but at this writing no testa

of value. it will be mined as a by.
product, as the gold values alone ar.

DEATH OF WIN. TRATHEN.

William Trathen, one Of the best
known miners in the county, died
yesterday OF pneumonia. His sickness
was of short duration and his death
was unexpected. Two months ago he
met with an accident while at work
in the Topeka mine and sustained a
broken leg. He had not fully recover

RADlUM SToREHoUsE
FOR THE WORLD.

Mention was made in last week s
Observer of the mill run being then
made at the Iron City mill, of low
grade ore from the German mine on
Quartz hill containing uranium. This
test run was made as an experiment.
The results obtained were beyond all
expectations as the seven tons of
crude ore gave two tons of uranium
concentrates with a value in uranium
Of 81 ,624.40 per ton, besides $187 90
ton in gold, silver, lead and cop
per.
The two tons were concentrated
from seven tons of ore as taken from
the mine. Five samples aggregating
1000 pounds, were tested. The best
sample, according to the assayer's
certificate, showed 2l.75 ounces gold,
II ounces silver, 81 Per cent cop
per and 1879 per cent uranium oxide
The other samples ran, respective
ly, in uranium 2.34 per cent. 3.22
per cent and 2.2O per cent.
The rich ore was located in the
mine more than a year ago, hut was
not removed at that time on account
of the illness of Hugh c. Browne,
who is president OF the Uranium
Gold Mining company. The extent of
the body was not known at that
time. Browne came to Central City
during the past summer and gave his
personal attention to the opening
up of the ore.
The students at the School of
Mines made assays of the ore and the
results ran SO high that for a while
they were not given out for fear that
no one would believe them. Prof
Herman Flick of the School of Mines
faculty made a visit to the property
and personally took out some of the
ore, which he assayed.
Gilpin observer., 1911-10-19

Several massive specimens of ore
ranging from 60 to 100 pounds in
weight have just been added to the
collection in the Chamber of Com
merce rooms. They came from the

ELECTRIC PROCESS.

The following description of the
Reid electric process by James E.
Harding, is of interest, as it may be
the solution of the problem, of treat
ing the low grade refractory ores in
this district:
In the course of a recent business
trip to New York City an opportun-
ity came to me to make an examina-
tion of the new Reid electric pro-
cess of ore treatment. While ] was
there the work done was largely on
Cobalt ores, which are of course well
ment and generally refractory nature.
The plant was doing better work on
. these Cres than anything | have ever
seen. Tie plant is simple in its OPP
Grafton, largely automatic, would re-
quire but few men to operate, and
requires but little technical ability.
1t is, l think, familiar fact to
everyone that the heat of the cleo
trio arc is so intense that as yet
no adequate method has been evolved
for measuring its temperature. Suf-
flee it to say that the highest tenn
perature which can be measured by
any known instrument is about 5000
degrees F., and 1t is known that the
heat of the arc far exceeds that tenn
perature, but by how much is a mere
guess. 1t is known, however, that the
heat of the blast furnace rarely ex-
ceeds $500 degrees and generally is
nearer 2,200. Another feature of ell
ectric arc heating is the fact that
the entire heat is concentrated in
a small space and practically none
is lost by radiation. On a number of
different occasions while | was at
tho plant in Newark | held my hand
within inches of the arc, with no
feeling of heat. 1t is to be borne
in mind that there was Temporal
ture of something over 5000 degrees
of heat within 2 inches of my hand
and nothing but air between the
hand ard the heat. 1t is also known
that in blast furnace it frequently
takes two or three hours with fluXes
to produce fusibility in certain met
no metal which he cannot start run

The method of treatment is briefly
this: Coarsely crushed ore is allow
ed to drop from a hopper into the
furnace containing the electric arc
and the flow of the ore is regulated
automatically. Owing to the enormous
heat developed by the arc, fu3ible
metals are quickly reduced and fall
through the arc in molten globules
into water tank, where they ex-
plode and CONCEAL into hollow glob'
ules of various sizes from exceed
ingly minute to the size OF buckshot,
which is the matte.
Into the water tank also falls all
its gangue associated with the min
eral. but when this gangue is sub
jected to the heat of the arc. owirS
TO its general silicate character. it
associates into powder, which floats
upon the surface of the water in the
tank is carried away by the constant
outtflowing of the water.
From the water tank the matte is
conveyed to an electric arc refiner
where the various base and precious
metals are more or less roughly sep
arated by means of their various
melting points. Volatile metals oil
semi-metals are cared for by means
of suction draft through ovens and
condensers.

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Miss Minnie Frey is entitled to
the gratitude of the High school for
remembering us again with the
Scientific American and the Christ
ian Herald Mr.. Sullivan has pres
ented the High school with a set of
the Presidents Messages and Pr
pers, in ten volumes.
The gymnasium has opened to the
use of the High school students,
and enough energy is now being ex-
pended in it to get well number
of hard lessons.
Mr.. c. II. Williams, High school
visitor from the state university, was
recent caller at the High school,
in the building. When leaving, he ex-
pressed himself as highly pleased
with the spirit and work of the
school.
Mr.. J. NJ. Seright, committee men,
Der, spent some time in the building
recently, but refused to be drawn
into an address. Mrs. Isabelle Mabec
promises a visit soon.
Reverend Mr.. Weber the recently
appointed pastor of the Methodist
church in this city, gave thought
full and inspiring address to the
school last Friday morning. While
urging the students not to be in
hurry about leaving school to get
into work and earning money, he
said, when Almighty God wanted
to make squash, he took six
months to do it; when he wanted
to make an oak, he took centuries"
We shall remember that remark in
the High school.

temporarily out of school because of
scarlet fever in the family. The
school hopes that not only she but
the others in that little city who
are out for the same reason may
soon be back with us.
The report cards which were issued
from the High school last Monday for
the first six weeks of school Were
very gratifying in their results. No
one in the school received less than
900 in department, and what is
more, nobody deserved less than
that.
Last spring, just before the close
of school, the principal arranged for
a lecture course to be given this fall.
1t will consist of four numbers, three
from out of town, and the fourth an
entertainment by the school. The
talent that has been engaged from
could be secured short of 81, 900 a
night people. The first number on
the course will be an entertainer,
Alvah Green, perhaps the greatest
impersonator on the lecture platform
today. He will be here the evening
of November 18th, and before that
time it is the hope that at the least
two hundred season tickets will have
been sold in this and surrounding
cities, at Sl.5O each. These tickets
will admit to all four numbers of the
course. Next week further announce
ment will appear as to the place
where these lectures will lie held.
Representative from the school will
address you pleasantly, but firm
ly, gently insisting that you sep
arate yourself from sl.50 for a seas
on ticket. All that is left over after
paying expenses win be applied to
the library fund for the purchase OF
new books, probably books of good
fiction. No individual is going to
make any money cut of this course
If it pays profit. Every cent will
go to the library.
