THE GREAT GOLD REcoVERER

The worlds gold output never reached $200, 900, 900 in a single year until 1896, season of our great na- tion- wide debate on the money metal question. In the few yea.s $5O0,000,000 year and has steadily increased. Cyanide is the explana- ton.
 Cyanide is an intensely poisonous acid which the German chemists pro duce most cheaply; because they do it cheapest they have been allowed to supply most of the worlds require ments. Mixed with water and passed through crushed gold bearing roci; ii teaches out the gold and carries it away in solution The gold is thea precipitated by passing the solution through zinc shavings and zine dust, the zinc attracting the gold.
 This process makes it possible to get the gold out of the vast masses of ore that could not be reduced by the old amalgam process. of which quicksilver was the basis. The cy- anide process was invented by Mac Arthur and Forrest in Glasgow or. rather, was made commercially practical by them. Its extended util- ization put value into ore bodies that had been worthless before and tdis chiefly accounts for the immense in flation of the gold output.
 Germany had neither gold ores nor the inventors of the process; out German scientific skill and thor eughness proceeded largely to monop olize the cyanide production. and thus to make Germa ny as much a part Ter in gold production as if she had owned the riches of the Rand.-New York Press.

Sawmill and Lumber Burns

ed back on Wells bench, together
with two hundred thousand feet Of
lumber sawed out this spring, was to.
tally destroyed by fire Thursday even.
ing of last week, the news reaching
Orofino the next day. Walter Tame,
who ran the engine for Mr.. Hardman,
said the brush and all rubbish was
cleaned up and burned this spring be-
fore the mill was started, and that the
mill had been closed down for some
time, SO that it is hard to understand
how the fire started unless is was de-
liberately set. Nobody was around
the property at the time, and nothing
is known as to the origin of the blaze.
Some of the men were depending on
the sale of the lumber for their wages,
and the destruction of the property
will probably result in the loss of
their wages.

John Chandler Dies

This week there passed out of earth
ly existence real pioneer when John
Chandler closed his eyes in peaceful
sleep. A good man has gone to his
reward, after having lived his full
allotted time. John Chandler was
born in Sagamon county, Illinois,
April l, 1881, being over SO at the
time of death. In 1849 he went to
California, and in '52 moved north in
to Oregon. While living in that state
he was married to Elizabeth Buff on
December "a, 1857, with whom he
journeyed life's varied paths for
almost 81 years, and the saddest part
of the passing of this old man, wear
led and tired with the battles of life,
was that he must leave for little
while the kindly old lady who survives
him.
In 1878 John Chandler came to east
ern Washington and in 1897 moved to
Idaho. Eight years later he moved
back to Oregon and returned to Idaho
in 1913 where he spent the last of
long life. He has lived in Polk and
Yamhill counties, Oregon, and in Lin
coin, Walla Walla and Whitman coun-
ties, Wash. Deceased served in Com
pany B, End Oregon Mounted volun-
teers, in the Rogue river war of 1856.
Eleven children were born to this
union. All but one are now living,
and all but one were here to attend
the services. The surviving children
are: W. M. Chandler, Orofino; j. D.
Chandler, Pennington, WASH; A. H.
Chandler, Grant county, Oregon; P.
A. Chandler, Orofino, Idaho; Clarence
Chandler, Salem, Oregon; Mrs. J. M.
Sanders, Orofino; Mrs. Joseph Owen
by, Freewater, Oregon; Mrs. j. B.
Dickson, Gilbert, Idaho; Mrs. j. F.
Dickson, Willamina, Oregon; Miss
Edna Chandler, Orofino, Idaho. One
son, Abe L. Chandler, died in 1899.
John Chandler came of English
stock, his ancestors coming to Amer
lea from England in the early settle
ment of the country, and seven of his
grandfather brothers fought in the
Revolutionary war. In 1861 deceased,
then young man, who knew Captain
Pierce in California, followed his
friend into the Pierce mining camp
east of Orofno where he mined for a
time. At that time Pierce had Is, 600
inhabitants.
For almost 60 years deceased was
member of the Christian church, and
while living on the homestead near
Gilbert gave land for the location of
the present church, and with j. S.
Hogue donated the ground for the
cemetery where the body was tenderly
laid to rest this week by loving hands.
Until his last illness, Mr.. Chand-
Ter had never been sick day, and the
first time he ever had doctor was
last week few days before he passed
away at the age of SO.

New York Journal OF Commerce:
Slams Garbus. a German farmer of
Iowa. has discovered that the benefits
which appear on the surface as at

times spell disaster and has written
a very interesting story OF his views
in a certain farm paper. Here is 4
part of his story:
