ROBBINS HAS DEVICE TO
ELIMINATE REMINDING

John Il. Robbins, register of the
United States Land office at Elko
and formerly a resident of Ely, and
Joseph o. Byrne have applied for a
patent on a device, which eliminates
the necessity of rewinding moving
picture films after they have been
reflected on the screen.
Through the device in which Mr..
Robbins is interested, the film is un-
wound from the inside instead of the
outside. 1t passes through the ma
chine and is wound on another spool
In the same manner. being ready for
immediate use.
The unwinding from the ENTER is
accomplished through the medium of
a flexible core of simple construction.
The commercial value of the inven-
ton will be readily recognized, when
more than a million films are in use
daily throughout the country, and it
takes about two minutes TO rewind
each film.

GOLD MINING D,!
EASTERN ASIA


 Cold is widely distributed over east lern Asia. but the most important de
 posts are in Siberia and northern Chi na, where tho Lena and Amur basins rich alIuyial deposits occur Those to the north of the Ainur are worked by Russians; on the south side the Chinese wash the gravel by methods that are crude but effective. Of re. cent years tho Chinese miners have begun to adopt foreign equipment to
 ome extent The Chinese are ex-
 remely slcinml vfth tko gold pan, and but little gold remains in the ground which they have acr'.ed over Some form of pan is everywhere employed, and the "dooI'ug" lpsn) and the pa chule' Caoel are used mostly in Indo- China. There afe fhe implements of the Malay in gold and tin mining and, together with bamboo baskets, carrying-poles and the china pump, constitute practically all the machn- cry used in tho mining of gold and tin in roplcal Asia. The prevalence of gold washing in the Amur basin of Siberia may easily give rise to an ex- aggerated idea as to the importance Of these deposits. Generally speaking, except where the use Of foreign ma chinory wili permit the working of ground now inaccessible such as gra- vel boiow water-level or with im- mensely thick oyer-burden there Is little additional profit to be gained by its use5 since the low cost of labor re- duces the cost of working by such crude methods to Q point where t can scarcely be improved upon. The cost of bringing in foreign equipment is high and the gradual introduction of nativenade equipment following foreign designs seems to be the nat
 ral line of progress The Russian washing machiue has q punched screen top. and only the fine stuff goes through, and the gravel 8 wash. ed on the screen. The inside of the machine consists of staggeded in- clined rifles. It does not make as good saving as the rocker The pe- culiar shape of the Russian pan does not seem 10 olier any advantage over the normal conical ran. The Rus. sians who have worked in Alaska have brought back to Asii, many of the methods which the Alagka miners have developed, and the American pattern sluice boxes have been built in S. borla by Russion with experience in Alaska Chinese lahorers do the rough work even on the Russian side of the Amur.
