GIVES DETAILS OF
EDISON DISCOVERY
Fl. B. Clifford Tells of New
Method of Treating the
Low-Grade Ores

Details of the new method of treat.
ing low.grade ores discovered by
Thomas A. Edison, q process which. il
il believed, will add S100. .0O0, 600 to the
value of the annual metal production of
the United States, were obtained the
other day from II. B. Clifford at the
Waldorf. Astoria in New York.
"Thomas A. Edison has, after 20
years of study on the question Of con.
oentration and a total expenditure Of
nearly 5000. 900. at last mastered a
system for handling low grade rebel.
lious ores so cheaply as to make the
discovery one Of the most important in
his career" said Mr.. Clifford, "for it is
claimed for this process that the values
in gold. silver, lead, copper, zinc, iron
or tungsten will have to be below per
cent when minable in large quantities
to be classed any longer as low grades.
about year ago Mr.. Edison became
identified with some western mining
men, WuO luuuCou uAuu W tohC w tHo
question of gold and silver concentrates.
The leading mines Of the United States.
including Anaconda. Utah Copper, Ne
vada Consolidated. the Barnesdale
group, the William A. Clark mines OF
Butte and the American Smelling q
Refining Company, sent large amounts
Of rebellious ore to him for treatment.
The result has been the discovery Of d
new force in concentrating that operates
ut a cost of 25 cents ton in large
bodies, making IL possible to handle a
lower grade Of ore at high percentage
of saving. Water may or may not be
used as desired"
Regarding the immediate use which
will be made of the discovery. Mr..
Clifford said: "Mr. Edison does not at
present intend to commercialize the in
vention, his intention being to build a
thousand.ton plant in Clear Greek
County, Colorado. and there work out
any detail or unfinished part of the IN
vention."

BETTER RULING ON
MINE PATENT CASE

The Department of the Interior has
handed down a decision in the case Of
the Dana Gold Miuine Company, which
allows patent to issue for claims over
which there has been considerable di.
versity OF opinion and rulings OF the
land department against the company.
The gist OF the new opinion is that q
patent may issue for claims IL there has
been q discovery of q vein or lode in
place. regardless OF whether there has
been sufficient work done to strip the
same to the extent of showing its con.
tinuation completely across the claim,
its dip. etc.
This decision 10 taken as the frat
favorable inclination on the part Of Of
fetal Washington to guarantee title to
mining claims legitimately applied for
since the recent adverse rulings in the
hex and East Tintic Consolidated cases.
In the latter case il was held:
"To constitute b valid discovery upon
lode mining claim for which patent is
sought, there must be actually and
physically exposed within the limits
thereof vein or lode of mineral bearing
rock in place. possessing in and Of itself
present or prospective value for min
ing purposes"
The Dana difficulties up to the time
If onooaasful ioaua mara dua m the in.
sufficient showings claimed to have
been made on the property in question.
The situation seems to have been boiled
down to the basis that in the attempt
to secure patent for mining claims It is
matter of proof or fact in each indiv-
dual case, with the prospect that the
tight lines recently drawn will not be so
rigidly adhered to in the future.

LEGAL FEE GREW TO GREAT SIZE.
Experience Of Senator Campbell
illustrates How Nevada Can
Reward Mankind

Accounts OF the great fortunes made
In the boom days Of Nevada still are
being heard around desert water holes
OF an evening, where prospectors gather
to spend the night, fortunes made prir.
cipally from the stock market end of the
game. II was easy money aud it man
aged to get into circulation, and widely
scattered at that, with record haste.
Bot fortunes still are being made in Ne.
vada. and of the better sort, for there is
an absence Of the boom aud unwisf

One of the best stories of sudden
wealth is that showing how Senator
Louis @. Campbell, formerly of Colo.
RADIO. benefited through the development
OF the famous National property near
Winnemucca. Sena'or Campbell was
in Denver afew days ago, and the Den.
yer Republican says:
Business Comes In
Senator Campbell at first located at
Lovelock, Nevada, where he hung out
his shingle and waited for clients. But
he didn't have long to wait. One day
shortly after his arrival, two prospectors
came into Lovelock from the northern
desert country of Nevada and prod uced
some thrilling specimens of "high.
grade"
These prospectors had difficulties with
the adjoining locators and were too poor
to stand the expenses of inevitable liti-
CATION. They placed their case in Sen.
ator Campbell's hands. The case was
tried.in Winnemucca and Campbell won
the case. For his fee he was given a
block OF stock in the mining company
he assisted in organizing after the liti-
CATION was settled. That stock, COM
paratively valueless then, rose to picture
figures when these prospectors went
back to their claims and developed into
the bonanza, now known as the famous
National mine. for which the camp is
named. Senator Campbell has made in
the neighborhood Of $500. 900 out of this
stock and the mines sre among the rich

ENGLAND'S BIG BOAT RACE.
Origin of the Annual Match Between
Oxford and Cambridge.

Origin of the Annual Match Between
Oxford and Cambridge.
In the year 1920 two university
Fights met in a rowing match from
Hambledon lock to Henley bridge.
One crew wore dark striped jerseys
and black hats, and the other APP
peared in white shirts, wearing pink
necktie. The race was rowed in slow.
heavy boats, built with high sides, and
square oars propelled the crews along.
No enthusiastic crowds lined the
banks of the river all along the course,
and no evening papers, giving the re-
suit of the race. sold in hundreds of
thousands all over the country when
the race was over. Yet this was the
beginning of the most popular racing
event in the rowing world-the Oxford
and Cambridge boat race
The boats used by the Fights in those
days were clumsy and uncomfortable
Sliding seats were unknown, and the
craft were weighed down with heavy
metal keels. Outriggers-the extended
parts of a boats gunwale, that give a
greater leverage-were also unheard
of, for it was not until 1916 that they
were introduced by the university
crews. In 1857 keelless boats were
adopted. and sliding seats were used
in them in 1873.
Oxford did not adopt the dark blue

FEARS THE FRIGATE BIRD.
The BOBBY Even Catches Fish to Feed
His Merciiess Master.


The BOBBY bird never leaves the
broad seas, where his harsh cry Is
heard from the Hebrides to the Faroes
and from the cliffs Of Scotland to the
coast of Norway He revels in the
storms and screams above the roar OF
the sea. The BOBBY has green feet.
yellow eyes and a defiant head COW
cred with a yellow cap. Each of its
wings Is three feet long and its beak
is so stiff and so strong that 1t fears
no enemy but the frigate bird
The frigate bird is the terror of the
birds of the sea, though he ignores all
but the BOBBY Owing to the breadth
of his wings, the frigate cannot fish:
he is forced to remain in the air. But
as he cannot get fish in the air and
as he requires fish for bis nour1sh-
ment he presses the BOBBY into his
service. When hungry he swoops
down upon the BOBBY and gives it a
vigorous thrust in the throat. Then
the booby's mouth opens and the fish
caught in it drops out The frigate
has only to give one peck at the
booby's throat to get his dinner.
1t happens occasionally that the
BOBBY attacked by the frigate has
nothing in it's mouth. When the
frigate pecks in vain he belabors his
slave with his beak and drives him
bruised and terrified, into the sea to
catch fsh.--Harper's Weekly.

There is a relation between the color
of fame and the energy of the combus-
ton causing it. The more vigorous and
complete the combustion the higher the
refrangibility of the light A fame
burning in tardy and restricted way
emits rays that are red When burn

manner the emitted rays change to vio-

The fame Of a candle or lamp con,
sists of a series of eccentric luminous
shells surrounding a central dark core.
These shells of flame emit light of diff
ferent colors, the innermost one-that
in direct contact with the dark core
being red and having temperature OF
exactly OFT degrees +. Upon this and
in their proper order of rafrangibility
are shells of light which are orange,
yellow, green, blue. indigo and violet.
The reason that such a flame does
not appear to us as nest of cones of
different colored light is this: When
we look upon such a flame all OF the
rays issuing from the different layers or
strata of concentric luminous shells are
received by the retina of the eye at one
and the same time. This can only i'm
