CONCENTRATES.

From the Mining and Scientific Press.
Men working in mills and
smelters should have plenty of
light, and fairly comfortable sur
roundings, if they are expected
to be contented and to work ef-
fciently. Men cannot be blamed
if they neglect to pay enough at
tention to machinery in dark
corners, where danger turks.
Disposal of residue from vacuum
or filter-press plants may be
cheaply done where water-power
is used in driving machinery.
The tail-races, carrying waste
water from Pelton or other
wheels, can often be constructed
under the leaves or frames Of
such filtering machines, and the

The Sacred Goldfish.

The sacred Goldfish carved in wood Is
to be seen on the walls of the hall of
Representatives in the statehouse at
Boston. 1t occupies a place Of honor
between two classic pillars Immediate
ly opposite the desk of the speaker.
Boskonians aver that this is the orig
inal sacred Goldfish of the old colony
and that it has had place In the halls
of the lawmakers of Massachusetts for
over $50 years. 1t is relic of the as
sembly hall that gave way to the pres
ent statehouse. The following is the
origin generally assigned to 1t:
One Captain John Welch Of Boston
was the creator and carver Of the IA
nous fish. In his time he was held
to be wood carver of no mean abil-
ity. He established himself In Dock
square in 1T47. A member of the An
cient and Honorable Artillery compa-
ny, Welch rose in time to its captain
cy. He was called on to contribute to
the decoration of the colonial assem-
bly, hall, and as at that period Goldfish
was the colony's main article Of export

Just been encountered that has
the appearance of being larger
and of better grade than any
thing yet found in the mine.
This ore body is about 450 ft.
from the portal of the tunnel
and is a short distance beyond a
raise that is up to the surface,
and has a depth of 220 ft.
Where the ore is found the vein
enters a very steep hill and a
great depth can be secured in
following the strike of the vein.
At present a crew Of men are
at work developing this shoot
and it will not be long until the
magnitude of the strike is known.
The finding of this ore shoot
shows that the mine is simply in
the prospect state as yet,
and as no great depth has
been attained, the property
should continue to be producer
for years to come.
The vein can be opened by
tunnel to a depth of $50 it,, on
the dip of the vein.
The mill will only be closed a
few days until repairs can be
made, when the mine will again
become a producer.
