Smokeless powder dates back some
Fifty years, but it was not until about
1886 that it attained its real efficiency
and sprang into general use. II must
be understood that even the best of
this powder is not absolutely smoke
less. II is not smoky enough, how
ever Ia do any harm. and as COM

called "smoke.ess.'

Cause of Worry.

Competent physicians are said to
be agreed that most of the dyspepsia
so prevalent today is due to nothing
but worry. AS in other cases, com
petent physicians" confuse the cause
with the effect. Dyspepsia is not due
to worry, but worry is due to dyspep-
STA. All chronic dyspeptics worry,
while no person will worry who has
sound digestion and a clean colon.

can Metals Pro. Co., and will equip
the Rocky Mountain concentrator, in
Black Hawk, for many years operat-
ed by Mr.. Moulton. Fifty thousand
dollars worth Of new equipment will
be installed as soon as the workmen
now engaged have the foundations
ready. The building will be remod-
elled to suit the purposes of the new
system.
The system the new company will
adopt in the treatment of the ores
os this section, is one evolved by Mr..
Moulton and G. w. Adams, mining
engineer who formerly resided in the
county, and who is expected to arrive
within a few days from Georgia to
become actively connected with the
new enterprise. A part of the pro-
cess Is secret. but according to
Mr.. Moulton, makes a saving of not
only the base metals, but the by
products as we'll, and the saving is
so complete that the company will
be able to treat a very low grade
o< ore at a good profit. 1t is the
purpose CO the company to buy the
ore outright.
The originators of the new process
are confident of its success They
have had unlimited experience in the
treatment of Gilpin county ores and
were in a position to work out some
scheme that would solve the problem
of extracting the values. A process
such as this new company will adopt.
that will make a recovery of all the
values in the complex ores of the
Gilpin and Clear Creek district, will
mean a healthy revival to mining and
assure these interested in the new
proposition a good return on their
investment

AMONG THE MINES
GIBSON GROUP OF MINES SOLD

Mr.. II. R. Wade, of Toledo, Ohio,

This group consists of the Star Of

mines, and have been good produc-
ers of ores in times past. The
former has a good hosting plant
and shaft house all complete and
ready for operation, and the new
owners will at once install hoist

that they have obtained a good prop

GOLD MINING FASciN-
ATING AND SAFE

Gold mining is the most ,fascinat-
ing. safe, lucrative and independent
occupation in the world, says the
Summit County (Colo.) Journal. The
desire for posse ssion of metallic
wealth is the one great incentive
to progress. 1t is an industry from
which civilization has received at
different times its greatest impulse,
and the records of history prove
that when nations were engaged in
active mining for gold, silver and
other precious metals they were most
progressive and prosperous. The
miner for gold has no evil shadow
following his prosperity 1t is true
that he may hunt over a large ter
ritory before finding a paying mine,
capital to bring the ore to the sur
face and extract the precious metal
but there all uncertainty ends. He
has absolute wealth. He fears no
panic. On the appearance of his gold
panic subsidies. He has no dread of
competition: with tie gold from his
mine he can stand by the side OF
the greatest merchant, secure in the
knowledge that his wealth is safe
from all fluctuations. He need not
fear fluctuating market, for it is
gold that commands all markets. The
farmer, the manufacturer the mer-
chant eagerly send their wares from
the most distant corners of the
world TO tempt him to exchange for
their products and merchandise. In
this age Of progress gold mining is
becoming recognized as legitimate
business and not a gamble. as here
tofore, and one of the safest and
most profitable classes of invest
ment.

PROFITS IN LOW GRADE ORE

The August output from the gold
the largest in recent years, being up
wards of $1,200,O0O. One of the in
teresting things about the report is
tie fact that the Joe Dandy plant
has been treating ore of the value
of $1.60 per ton at profit.
If ore, at this low value, can be
profitably handled, then it is clear
that there are millions OF tons upon
the dumps at Cripple Creek which
can be handled by the various milling
companies. And, after the mines are
SO deep that they cannot be worked
profitably, there will still be many
years work in reducing and milling
the enormous dumps of the great gold
camp. A good deal of work is now
under way in this regard because of
the necessity of securing dump space.
but even with this, it will take 20
years to handle the dumps of the
big mires.-Colorado Springs Tele-
