establishing a large sulphur refinery at

this purpose OF selecting some Of the
available sites In the western part Of
the city that the services Of the Com
mereIal club are to be called for.
Mr.. Greenleaf showed samples Of native
sulphur that assay better than 81 pei
cent pure sulphur in combination with
barely trace Of arsenic and sodium as
the other chief element, simplifying and
cheapening the refining process TO the
minimum. In addition to the rich sui

tablished here il will undoubtedly be-
come one Of the largest enterprises In the
