1.-THE Master Key," the Next Story
Treat for Unite Pine NeWs Readers

Last week saw the conclusion in
the News of The Million Dollar Mys-
terry" For twenty-five weeks the va
ried and exciting adventures that fell
to the characters created in the fer
tie and imaginative brain of Harold
MacGrath, have held the closest at
tention OF the readers of the News.
No like feature ever before under
taken by the management of the
paper has created the interest arous-
ed by this entertaining story. The
chapters have been impatiently await
ed, eagerly read. and upon each sue
ceeding Thursday night the Ely the

to witness the portrayal Of events

ing picture films.
With each appearance of the News
with its installment of the Mystery
the current events of the day have
taken second place to the absorbing
question of the Million and it's
maze of intricate situations. Many
solutions" have been turned in by
hopeful competitors for the ten
thousand dollar prize offered in con-
nection with the story. but those who
did not compete for the prize, have
followed the story with equal Zest
and been on hand at the theater to
witness the action of events. Mac
Grath. in this unique tale of love,
hatred and greed has succeeded to
an unusual degree In imparting real
life to his characters. In the final
chapter published last week, the veil
was partially lifted. but there yet re-
mains delightful uncertainty. And
this uncertainty must remain until
Mr. MacGrath himself discloses the
real situation, which he will do in
good time This will disclose the
hiding place OF the Elusive Million /.

RENO, Jan. 16.-The correct bat
ting order among the legislators in
dicates that both houses of the leg
islature, which convenes at Carson to-
morrow, will be Republican, and
those who watch and wait in the wiley
game of politics declare that no op-
position will be manifested against
the designs of the party in power.
The Republicans swept into power
in the lower house through the de-
fiection of William Pitt, elected to
the assembly from Humboldt county
as an independent. The lawmaker
from Loyeloek has had years of ex-
perience in the Legislative halls at
Carson. and was generally recognized
as roek-ribbed Democrat None of
his colleagues anticipated that he
would do the flip-fiop. Until it was
announced authoritatiyely in this
city yesterday that Pitt would not
caucus with the party that he had
affiliated with for years, even the old
timers lost all semblance OF trying
to line up the situation.

ING VITAL CONSEQUENCES.
Especial TO the News

The fury of the battle along the
Aisne has spent itself and the Ger
mans for the present at least are
making no effort to extend the gains
they won over the French.
Toward the northern end of the
line south of the Lys, the Germans
re-oecupied trenches previously cap
tured by the Allies, as is admitted in
the French statement, and In the
Argonne small engagements are said
10 have resulted In their advantage.
The French assert that they won
definite advantages in artillery fight
ing and compelled the Germans TO
eyacuate trenches near Clemery
Seldom since the beginning of the
campaign In the east has the military
situation been so uncertain as at the
present Several independent move
ments. each with the possibility of
vital consequences. are in progress
simultaneously. The latest phase of
the situation. the advance of a new
Russian army against west Prussia.
IN connection with the movement of
the forces that have invaded east
Prussia, is believed in London TO
threaten the German forces in cen
tral Poland
The Russian general staff is con-
vineed that the Germans west and
southwest of Warsaw determined on
a general offensive movement further
south. German troops have rein
forced the Austrians for drive at
the Russians. designed to relieve
Bukowina and northern Hungary
from danger of further invasion.
The Turkish military authorities
are reported to have decided to at
tempt an invasion of Egypt.

upon having the use of the gym

Oil Flotation
Is Marvellous
GOLD REGONERIES AT McGILL
HAVE DOUBLED. AND PRAC-
TiCALLY ALL ORE VALUES ARE
SAVED BY NEW PROCESS.

Although the imagination of the
public was bewidered eight years
ago. when the ingenuity of western
mining engineers brought TO light
and commercialized within a few
miles of our own doors one of the
largest deposits of low grade copper
porphyrys on the globe, yet the eff
forts of the pathfinders In that new
field of endeavor pales into signifi-
canoe in comparison with the results
accomplished at McGill through the
oil flotation process.
In spite of the fact that the new
system Is in operation at all of the
Jackling properties, the best results
have been obtained at the Steptoe
plant of the Nevada Consolidated
The old recoyeries of one dollar a
ton In gold have been increased in
excess of two dollars. The copper
contents of the tailings show only
from 15-100 to 31-100 of one per
cent. Through the application of oil
better than SO per cent is extracted.
An exemplifieation of what is be-
ing done at MeGill is shown through
the statement that the entire reeoy-
cry of the plant was raised from 68
to z per cent through the operation
of one of the improved units. In the
past the tailings used to show as
much as sixteen pounds of copper.
and through the new method a reduc-
tion to two and half pounds has
been effected.
The metallurgical department of
the different Jackling properties
throughout the west has guarded
with the greatest secrecy the expert
ments that have been conducted
during the last four months at the
Utah Copper. Chino. Ray and Neva-
da Consolidated Previous to the
erection OF the experimental plant at
McGill. but few people had any con-
ception of what was being accom-
plished, and those who have been
given an inkling as TO results regard
II as nothing short of marvellous.
1t has been demonstrated at the
Utah Copper that from seven to
eight more pounds of copper can be
saved to the ton than under the old
methods in vogue. II is anticipated
that the recovery of by-products will
be practically doubled, and that the
amount of the red metal saved to the
ton will be at least twenty-five
pounds When both the Arthur and
Magma plants are in operation at
Bingham. II Is believed that the cost
of producing copper will not exceed
four and three-fourths cents pound.
More machines have been placed In
operation at the Chino holdings than
any other. and one at the Butte and
Superior, where the first experiments
