She and her sister, the Honorable
Ivy Stapleton, who is the present heir
to the title, have lived ideal children's
lives at the baroness's splendid castle
in Yorkshire, Carlton Towers. All the
responsibilities of her position have
been taken off her youthful shoulders
by her mother, and the only occasions
when it has literally weighed on her
were when she had to take her place,
clothed in hot red velvet and fur,
among the barons in Westminster Alb
hey for King Edwards coronation In
1902 and again last year at King
Georges. At the first ceremony she
was just eight years old and had to be
accompanied by nurse, and the stuff

service, of which she could hear little

wearisome to the child accustomed all

TAFT
AHEAD
Scores First Blood When Root Is
Elected Temporary Chairman
of Convention.

Chicago, June lS.-Against the
threats, charges and bitter invective of
the Roosevelt forces, Taft supporters in
the republican national convention to-
day put through the first portion of
their program by electing Senator
Elihu Root of New York, as Temporary
chairman. In spite of the fact that
Victor Rosewater, chairman of the ma
tional committee, consistently ruled
out OF order every motion made by the
Roosevelt forces, it required more than
five hours to reach vote on the tenn
poary craftsmanship.
Calling of the roll was beset with
difficulties from the very first name on
the list of delegates, but in the end,
when the tumult had died away, Sen
ator Root was found to have won by
vote of 55S to 502 for Governor Francis
f. McGovern, of Wisconsin, with four
teen scattering votes and four not vot-
ing.
Tonight both the Taft and Roosevelt
forces are claiming this vote indicates
that their candidate is absolutely sure
to win. The advantage appears to be
with the President, however, for while
he is sure to lose some of the votes in
dependently cast for McGovern.
Those leaders who have been urging
a compromise candidate ever since
they arrived in Chicago are pointing
to another angle in the figures and
claim they show that it is essential to
name so-called "dark horseu to save
the day for the republican party.

INVISIBLE TO THE NAKED EYE
Gold of Great Value In the Aggregate
- Is Recovered Through New
Process.

In California gold mining the sep
arating apparatus of the most modern
type of dredge is mounted on the all
steel body of a specially adapted shov-
eel car, on trucks resting on railroad
track laid on the bedrock. These
trucks are very heavy and are so de-
signed as to provide, while digging a
bedrock base Of twenty by twenty-six
feet. -sfs. ,;ss SD A-tesA7ae'.~-'''~'
u The dipper, called in foreign coun-
tries bucket, has a capacity OF two
cubic yards, or over, ard speed limit
OF about two per minute. 1t can swing
the whole circle, says the Rosary Mag
azine, and can make cut fifty feet
wide.
1t digs, when required, eight feet
below the track, opens and closes auto
matically at the right points, taking
in everything from grass roots to bed
rock, including boulders two and a
half feet in diameter which readily
pass through treatment, and handling
those of five tons weight with ease
and celebrity.
The proportion of microscopic gold
contained in placer ground is astonish
ing. Black sand from the waste from
an undercurrent or sluice, after all
gold had been extracted that could be
saved with rifles and quicksilver was
used in ordinary placer operations, al
most always shows the presence OF
microscopic gold. Incomplete tests OF
surface gravel below the mills at Black
Hawk, Colorado, indicated that nine
tenths of the gold was Of microscopic
fineness.
The truth is that the bulk, certainly
not less than Is per cent. of all the
gold in alluvial deposits, consists o.
bits so small as to be not only en-
tirely unsavable by any of the de
vices employed in the past, but, ex
cepting perhaps very small percen
tage, invisible to the human eye. The
dredge and the modern separator are
now extracting this gold and adding
it to the worlds supply of the precious
metal.
