rival of the British cruiser Suffolk,

reported.
The battleships Nebraska. Miehi-
gan and gunboat Wheeling were pre-.

American naval commanders are ex-
pected to act on their own discretion
to protect properties.

$1o4682

During the year $500 feet Of devel-
opment work was done. The work
ings on the sixth level Of the Wan
dering Boy shaft are entirely in
trachyte, the ore-bearing formation.
with the exception that in the north
cross-eut from the winze on the sew
enth level al a distance of 120 feet
from the vein, a block of West End
rhyolite has been encountered, which
probably has no effect on the Frac-
tion vein.
An estimate of ore reserves from
exact evidence would be warranted
Because Of the fact that on the
lower levels there are no threatening
occurrences of foreign rock, it is ex-
pected that the ore bodies will con.
tinue to greater depth. and it may be
expected that from the Fraction and
other veins, a much greater tonnage
will be extracted than could at pres
ent be estimated, even as possible
ore.
A series Of profitable years Is con
fidently hoped for.
The net profits Of the company for
October were s6109. as compared
with sS494 in September and a
deficit OF about $500 in August.

Chloride of Sodium.

In connection with the name salt a
curious fact Is to be noted Salt was
formerly regarded as compound re-
sulting from the union of hydrochloric
Tor. as it used to be called, muriatic)
acid and soda. and hence the generic
term of salt was applied to all sub
stances produced by the combination
of base with an acid Sir Humphry
Davy, however. showed that during
their action on each other both the
acid and tir flkali underwent decom-
position ant that, while water Is form
ed by the rniun Of the oxygen of the
alkali and the hydrogen Of the acid,
the sodium of the former combines
with the chlorine of the latter to form
chloride of sodium. and this term is
the scientific designation of salt. which.
paradoxical as 1t may seem. is not
salt. At one time nearly the whole of
the salt used rs food and for Industrial
purposes was obtained from the sea-
and in many countries where the eli
mate is dry and warm and which have
a convenient seaboard great quantity
Of salt Is still obtained.

and for many years the method Of slit

kept secret by those famous penmak-

Briefly. the method Of manufacture
Of steel pen today may be described
as follows: The blanks are pierced
and the Sits cut. after which the pen
requires to be softened by annealing.

In the DEVILS slide In Utah and other

There exist on the South river, In the

The greater hardness Of the surface
