OFFICIALS IN THE CITY


Officials OF the Empire Zinc Co. from

engineer, 7. H. Troutman. treasurer.
and l.. r. Rowand OF New York City.
haycbsecn here for several days ad-
vising with A. r. Livingston, superin-
tsa 2ent OF the Canon City plant, in re-
gard to recent additions to the COM
pary's> works here. which are soon tc
be put into operation.
The plant of the Empire Zinc Co..
south OF town, is not a smelter as
many people suppose. but 1t Is con-
centrating mill which separates the
raw zinc frcm its ores by a magnetic
process. Heat is used only in driving
off moisture from the ore as It comes
from the mines.
Owing to the magnetic properties
which zinc has In one OF Its combina-
tions with iron. magnets have been
arranged In such a manner as to take
the rinc from this ore when it has
been properly dried and crushed. With
the additional faculties which the
company has just made to Its works.
1t now proposes to roast the ore imme-
dlately after IL has been crushed. The
rozstiks, II is expected will enable the
company TO use certain ores which
they now have on hand and others
whi9< they may acquire. which do not
now Yield to the magnetic process OF
separation. According TO the Empire
Zinc Co.'S officials here this process is
not new one and is not an expert
ment. but * In use at present in dif-
ferent parts Of the United States II is
n method OF enlarging the field OF the
plant here.
During the last summer and fall the
comHny has Installed large rough
crusher. a large furnace. dryer. and
dust house. At the present time there
are between so and 100 men in the
cnyoyment of the company.
The capacity of the mill is from $50
10 eookcns of concentrates daily. Us
products are raw zinc. which Is ship
ped to smel,ers for the manufacture OF
spelteSor mercantile zine. iron. lead,
and by-products used In paint manu-
facture-
Unlike many smelters OF the coun-
try. the Empire Zinc Co. does not work
ore for mine operators. but buys It's
ore outright and markets Its own pro-
ducts. -aai a. Sxx2G
r. s. Beali Is In charge OF the test
ing plant. which runs tests on the dlf-
ferent ores and determines which pro-
cess Of treatment will yield the larg-
eseHeiurn to the company.
Since the Empire Zinc company De-
gan operating In Canon City nine
years ago, the works have been closed
but three months In that time. except
when repairs were being made and at
the times these repairs were being
made more men were employed than
usual. "a -sss2
The a{5unt Of money which the En-
plre Zinc Co. spends In Canon City
every month and the character and

employees. are to be considered IN
counting the assets OF this commun-

CURE FOR SLEEPING SICKNESS
West Coast Of Africa May Get Rid Of
Disease Through Fowls Who Eat
Pupa Of Fly.

London.-Letters received from the
west coast Of Africa during the last
few days tell Of new hope for the
ultimate conquest Of sleeping sicknass.
It is known that one or two Of the
tsetse flies carry the parasite (trypano.
some) either from man to man or from
beast to man. The attempt to remove
the natives from the fly areas. and
thus to protect them from the disease.
has not been altogether successful
Any effort to kill down tho dies ap.
pears hopeless.
Recent work. however, shows that
the guinea fowl finds the pupa Of the
dy tasty morsel. Land that has been
scratched over by fowls is completely
free from the pest. In few weeks
full details Of this new hope viii be
published the world over. II the ma
tfves can be persuaded to keep fowls
It WIN not only be q source Of profit ia
themselves, but also q protection
against the assaults Of tho dy. Fowls
do not harbor the disease. and al
though they have maladies Of theil
own they are not such as attack hu
man beings.

NOTED CAFE CLOSED
New Orleans Health Board Or
ders Resort to Suspend.
Every Tourist Who Has Visited
French Quarter In the Crescent
City Will BE Grleved to Learn
Restaurant Is No More.

fFew Orleans-Mme. Begue's restau-
rant-that delightful old place just
opposite the French market in New
Orleans-has been ordered closed.
Not only has it been ordered closed,
but the order came from Dr. Oscar
Bowling Of the state board Of health.
And unless Papa Begue obeys the
demands of the department, the
Crescent City will lose one of its most
famous landmarks, known to tourists
and epicures throughout the civilized
world. Doctor Bowling AYERS the place
has been weighed in the sanitary
scales and found wanting.
Until her death, October 20, 1906,
Nine. Begue. dark, short, plump and
smiling, was the presiding genius Of
the Begue establishment. Her expert
ence and handicraft created the dish
es which remain sacred in the men,
ory of every guest. Since her death
Papa Begue has conducted the rendez-
vous for tourists.
Located in the darkest, dirtiest,
noisiest quarter of New Orleans, al
most a part of the stir and chaos of
the French market, the food bazaar
of bizarre food became known to tour
lists as the Begue Exchange.
Breakfast at Begue's was an eight
OF ten course meal which began at II
o'clock in the morning and continued
until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
Three hours of cuisinic medleys;
three hours whiled by the babel of
foreign tongues: three hours of fun.
of eating, drinking and smoking
The meal fascinated and satisfied
from its beginning of French bread
and wine to the strong coffee and
cigars, and not until the time had
nearly expired did one wonder that
the Begue Exchange served only one
meal a day. =
Time and prosperity did not enter
into the fashion and furnishing Of the
Begue Exchange.
One of the most interesting fea-
lures of Begue's was the trio of reg
listers. Many and many a widely
known name is written on these
