Manager Sayre, of the Lake mine,
informs US tl at the 1. d. l.. Leasing
company, operating that portion of
the mine, 60 feet below the 1900
foot tunnel level drift on the Lake
vein, are driving the drift east under
the Moser grourd, also the west
drift under the Klein ground, in each
of which they have streak of smelt-
ing and concentrating ore 6 feet wide
of a good grade. The smelling ore
is shipped direct to the smelter at
Denver. A portion of the concentrat-
ing ore is shipped to the Hudson
mill and is treated by flotation. while
the remainder is sent to the Jackson
and Newton mills for treatment.
These large bodies of high-grade
ore lie nearly 2,400 feet beneath the
surfsce of the mountain and thorough

COWS GO OUT ON SPREE WHEN
RIVER FLOWS WITH BOOZE

Trinidad, Jan. 3.-Farmers down in
the valley report strange condi-
ton Of affairs among the cattle. Since
early yesterday morning staid old
cows and sleepy eyed steers have
been carrying on in a fashion that
is weird and wonderful. They have
been bawling and mooing and acting
altogether out of keeping with their
former decorous custom.
Many old cows who have not been
out Of a walk in years and little
calves which seemed too weak to
stand alone have teen doing sort
well executed. In fact, the capers
they have been cutting caused the
farmers no little worry.
They dared not approach the hap
py beasts who staggered and two
stepped and hiccor ghed and mooed
in a silly fashion while they seemed
to have terrible thirst. This caused
an investigation to be made and the
awful truth was learned.
Their inordina'e desire to drink
the river dry was soon explained.
The water told the story. 1t smell
ed like-well, you know what 1t used
to smell like last year when the sa-
looms were running and they had just
opened new barrel of booze? Well,
that's how it smelled around the riv-
CT and in spite of the abundance of
chaser" mixed wi h the quantities
Of booze poured into the sewers of
Trinidad last night, the cattle were
out on q tear.
Whether any eff ort will be made
to take them into custody cannot be
guessed. And the men who sought
to force the cattle to go dry by chas-
ing them away from the river banks
lad poor luck.

SECRETARY OF
INTERIOR REPORT

In hits annual report, the secretary
tribute to Colorado:
In the latter part of last year the
supply OF potassium cyanide in Colo
RADIO ran short owing to Interruption
in the supply from Germany. But
sodium cyanide, which can be manu-
factured here in plenty, was substi-
tuted in the treatment of Cripple
Creek and other ores to the extent of
more than half million pounds.
Tungsten was tie demand of the
munition factories at home and
abroad. 1t is an essential constituent
of ''high speed" steels and gunmetals.
Tungsten was called for and no state
responded to the same extent as Colo
looked for in all of the western
country
"Barium salts are absolutely essen
tial in certain manufacturers, that
were imported from European labora-
tories and factories Word went
forth that barytes were required and
Colorado responded and the foreign
market is being supplied as we'll as
the home demand.
"Colorado's contribution to the
metallic field in vanad.um, chromium,
tungsten and tie like has helped in
the economic evolution by which one
man with a modern metal-cutting ma
chine equipped with high speed"
steel tools can do as much work as
could five men with five machines
equipped with the old carbon steel
tools.
uranium is used in the manufac-
ture Of special steels and some of
it's salts are used for coloring glass,
but the element is chiefly notable as
the parent of radiGm. Until very re-
Gently the nation was dependent up
on foreign market, hut, thru the
cooperative efforts of the federal hu-
reeu of mines and the National Ra-
dunn institute, radium from the car
notite, ores CT Colorado is being
manufactured at one-third the price
asked by Europe. This triumph of
American invention and skill is not
only making t is country ind p! men
Of foreign sources but is enabling
American physicians to apply to the
cure of cancer and similar diseases
radium in quantities not available to
physicians in Europe"

CARiMAN TUNGSTEN
COMPANY TO RESUME

Nederland, Colo, Jan. 3.-Chicago
capitalists will take up the obliga-
tions of the Cariman Mining and
Milling company, which went into
the hands of the bankruptcy court on
November 20, according to Secretary
f. N. Totman.
Fermor ]. Spencer was appointed
trustee for the company at meeting
os the creditors in Denver Dec. 80
He has filed a petition with the
court asking for a sale of some of
the stock.
The company is potentially one of
the strongest mining companies in
the state, according to expert min
ing men. and it is only a question of
having more capital to develop the
property. Among the property own
ed by the company is the cid Bould-
er county tunnel from which has been
taken millions CT dollars worth OF
silver. Both this mine and the Carl
bou mill will be started Feb. !, ac-
cording to Totman.

THE DRY SPELL

The passing of tie year 1915 mark
ed the closing of the saloons through
out the state ard Colorado entered
the dry column, theoretically but not
in fact. There is unQuestionably
more liquor in the state now than
there has been for years as the big
majority of people laid in large stocks
while the liquor was available. Local
ly, the saloons sold out OF beers and
Whistles two or three days before
the time the prob bition amendment
became effective and when the sad
hours of closing ar. ived, their remain
ing stock consfstC d entirely of bit
ters and cordials.
The Colorado mes sure is as loose
a dry law as prevails in any state.
There is really no prohibition to it
as a citizen of the state can have all
he wants provided he sends out of
Colorado for it. 1t appears that the
purpose Of these who furthered the
dry movement was to close the sa-
looms and not to sop drinking. At
the meeting of the district attorneys,
held in Denver the latter part of
last month, it wss agreed to permit
a man to serve liquor to his guests
in Ids own hcme; and man is also
permitted to carry a bottle with him,
provided he does not give drink to
another.
1t is doubtful IL there will be much
bootleggirg under the new law, for
with the privilege of sen6ing away
and getting what liquor one needs,
there is no necessity CT obtaining
it Illegally. Summing it all up, the
| new law really mcars tfat you can
have adj tie beer and whisky you
want, if you but spend your money
/ out of Colorado.
When the prohibition amendment
went into force, there were but four
saloons in Central and five in the
rest Of the county. All the places
occupied by saloons in Central have
been abandoned and the occupants
have no intention of starting any
other business. Igratz Meyer says
he will take a much needed rest of
at least a year. Tony Cesario con-
templates a trip to Wyoming and if
he finds business opening, will prob
ably locate in that state. Toby Zan-
ella hasn't decided upon just what
he will do, but will take a few
months rest. Ambrose Mathes and
family will remove TO Denver within
n few weeks and reside there in the
future. Andy Amb' osi intends to go
leasing in the mines or accept days
pay job.
In Black Hawk, the three saloons
have been converted into soft-drink
emporiums and Earnabe & Ress'
place in Russell will be run as re-
sort of innocent amusement. John
Hatfield, in Baltin ore, will conduct
dry summer resort.
Gilpin observer., 1916-01-06

Mr.. and Mrs. A. Baleria, who had
been spendir & a month at their min
ing property in Boulder park, return
ed to Central Saturday evening. The
wagon in which they we're riding
broke down on Eory hill and they
bad to walk the remaining distance
to Central. Since his return, Mr..
Baleria has reopened his bottling
works and will manufacture soft
drinks. He has given the place a
thorough overhau irg and placed it
in sirst-class sanitary condition. He
will manufacture all the latest popu-
lar drinks and si-ce the state has
gone dry, should do good business
with temperance beverages. AS this
is local institution it is entitled to
the bulk of tte soft-drink business.
The last year or two great deal
of money has been going to the bot
Ting works in Denver, which should
now be kept at home.
Gilpin observer., 1916-01-06

A mining company which will han
die the tungsten (scheelite) depos-
it's near the Moflat railroad in Gilpin
county, has secured control of about
100 acres OF patented claims includ-
ing the most of Iron hill. This prop
ery has been acquired by a strong
Denver company. who will prosecute
work and production from the new
field as vigorously as men and mon
ey can do the work. 1t Is proposed
to install a concentrating mill on the
company's property, thus doing away
with the middle man in the market-
ing OF the company's product. The
new district is about three miles by
wagon read north of the town OF
Black Hawk, covering both sides Of
Hughesville gulch and part of Mis-
souri, creek gulch. Many Of the old
workings Cargely tunnels) contain
dumps that are found to carry prof
table amount Of tungsten. In fact,
1t was by reason of these old dumps
that the district was discovered

Gilpin observer., 1916-01-06

G. w. Adams, of the American
Metals Pfoducir CONF any, COZ st: uot
ing reduction plant in Black Hawk,
says they will be delayed about a
month in the completion of the mill.
This delay is due to the inability
Of the eastern machine shops to turn
out two tube mills, part Of the
equipment. Mr.. Moultcn, an officer
OF the company, is now in Chicago,
urging the machinery people to get
his order through. MIR. Moulton
writes that all the big machinery
plants of the east are swamped with
war orders that are bringing such at
tractive prices, it is difficult for
anyone to have any mining or manu-
featuring machinery made. Mr.. Moul-
ton says that high class machinists
who were receiving wage of $3.50
a day before the war orders COM
menced to arrive. are now command
ing from $15 to $50 a day.
