CHAPTER Ix-(Contipued,

T1OwARD one of these our captors led ia
i and after a short walk halted before n
steel cage which lay at the bottom of a
shaft rising above us as far as one could
see.
The cage proved to be one of the COM
mon types of elevator cars that had
seen in other parts of Barsoom. They are
operated by means of enormous magnets
which are suspended at the top of the
shaft. BY an electrical device the volume
of magnetism generated Is regulated and
the speed of the car varied
In long stretches they move at sicken-
ing speed, especially on the upward trip
since the small force of gravity inherent
TO Mars results in very little opposition to
the powerful force above.
Scarcely had the door of the car closed
behind us than we were slowing up to stop
at the landing above, so rapid was our
ascent of the long shaft.
When we emerged from the little building
which houses the upper terminus of the
elevator. we found ourselves in the midst
OF a veritable fairyland Of beauty. The
combined languages of earth men hold no
words to convey to the mind the gorgeous
beauties of the scene.
One may speak Of scarlet sward and
ivory-stemmed trees decked with brilliant
purple blooms; of winding walks paved

turquoise with even diamonds themselves :
of a magnificent temple of FURNISHED gold
hand-wrought with marvellous designs; but
where are the words to describe the glo-
Ttous colors that are unknown to earthly
eyes? Where the mind or the imagination
that can grasp the gorgeous scintillations
of unheard-of rays as they emanate from
the thousand nameless jewels of Barsoom? :?
Even my eyes, for long years accustomed
to the barbaric splendor of a Martian jed
daks court, were amazed at the glory of
the scene.

HOW TO TEST FOR TUNGSTEN


The following method, from the re-
port of the Colorado Geological survey,
issthe one recommended by the chem
istry department of the Colorado School
of Mines:
Completely pulverize the mineral,
place small quantity in test-tube
with hydroehloric acid. Boil Vigorous
ly for fifteen or twenty minutes if
hubnerite or wolframite is looked for,
or about ten minutes if scheelite is ex,
pected. A fine yellow powder, tungs-
tic oxide, WO3, is formed. When a
small piece of tin or zinc is added the
yellow powder and the powdered lungs
ten mineral are changed to fine blue
The tungsten oxide is reduced by the
stannous chloride to lower hydrous
oxide. If concentrated or very strong
hydrochloride acid is used the blue So
luton will soon change through winc
color to purple-brown. If dilute acid
is used the blue color will last much
longer. Dilute sulphuric acid may be
used, but in the case of the dark tung'
ten ores, requires longer time to pro-
duce the tungsten oxide. The blue
color obtained by reducing with ziuc
or tin is more lasting that that OBJ
tanned by treating with strong hydro
chloric acid If the finely powdered
mineral is fused with ten or fifteen
times it's volume Of sodium carbonate
Tor baking soda) in an iron spoon, and
then dissolved in acid and treated with
the zinc or tin, the results will be the
same, but the test will be more certain,
since the minerals are rather hard to
break up with the acids alone.
A test which has proved satisfactory
with the dark tungsten ores may be
made as follows: Reduce the mineral
to very fine powder and fuse with
sodium carbonate (bakiug soda). Dis
solve the mass by boiling in water,
add a few grains of ammonium sulpho-
cyanate, and heat gently to dissolve the
salt. Add dilute hydrochloric acid. a
bright-wine is produced. Add tin and
boil. The red disappears and is TO-
lowed after short time by a rich
green solution. The depth of the green
will depend upon the strength of the
solution.
Follow the first test until the first
boiling has occupied twelve or fifteen
minutes, then add little nitric aci
and boil about five minutes. Allow
the yellow powder to fall to the bot
tom, and drain off the liquid. Adj
ammonia. If the yellow powder is dis
solved, it was formed by tungsten. The
ammonia solution may be acidified with
blue color produced by boiling will not
disappear when the solution is diluted

with water.

REPORT THAT osaooD
OWNS CARY RANCH

The Craig Courier is responsible for
report to the effect that the Victor
American Fuel company has purchased
the property of the Yampa Live Stock
& Land company, the big Cary ranch,
extending for seven miles west from
Hayden, amounting altogether to many
Thousand acres. The Courier argues
that the fact that much of the livestock
is being moved from the ranch to the
Vernal country to be wintered and to
the K Diamond ranch, owned by the
Carys, in western Motfat county, tends
to prove the truth of the rumor.
If this report is true, it means that
the Victor American company, of which
John G. Osgood is at the head, has now,
with its several branch concerns, be-
come the largest single property owner
in Routt county. During last year the
Osgood companies expended over ST.
25O,OOO in purchasing the Dawson ranch
east of Hayden, and a large acreage
of coal land adjoining Mt. Harris and
on Wolf and Grass creeks, and in Sc
curing control of the Pinnacle mine at
Oak Creek.
1t is reliably reported that Osgood
has plans well advanced for disposing
of his coal interests in the southern
Colorado fields, where he is now the
largest operator, and transferring his
undivided attention to the development
and operation of mines in Routt coun-
ty which will be larger and more IN
portant than any others in the state.
To this end he is backing the plans for
the construction of the Colorado, wy
ominp & Eeastern railroad into these
fields from North Park, and it is
claimed that the coming summer will
see the completion of this new railroad
into Routt county, which will greatly
reduce the distance from the mines of
the Yampa field to the markets of Ne
braska, South Dakota and Iowa by
many miles, and will eliminate the cx-
cessive grades and high elevations en-
countered on the Moffat road and es-
cape all danger of snow blockades.
While it is not known by the public
at large that there are important coal
deposits under the valley portion of
the Cary ranch, it has long been gener'
ally known that there are extremely
valuable veins of coal underlying the
pastures on the mesas on both the
north and the south side of the valley.
While it is difficult to understand why
the Victor American Fuel company
should feel that it needed the Cary
ranch, yet the rumor may be true, as
Mr.. Osgood is quoted as saying that
inside of five years he will have de-
veloped coal mines in Routt county
which will have a greater output than
those of any other district in the west,
and that he will have built city ex-
ceeding in Importance Trinidad, the
principal support of which comes from
the coal mines Of Las Animas and

EATING AN APPLE

"Do you know what you re eating?'
said the doctor to the girl
=" An apple, of course.'
You are eating,' said the doctor,
"albumen, sugar, gum, malic acid, gal
lie acid, fibre, water and phosphorus. ="
81 hope those things are good. They
sound alarming
"Nothing could be better. You ate,
l observed, rather too much meat at
dinner. The mallie acid of apples ueu-
tralizes the excess of chalky matter
caused by too much meat, and thereby
helps to keep you young. Apples are
good for your complexion; their acids
drive out the noxious matters which
cause skin eruptions. They are good
for your brain, which those same noxi-
Gus matters, if retained, render slug
gish. Moreover, the acids of the apple
diminish the acidity of the stomach that
comes with some forms of Indigestion.
The PHOSPHORUS, Of which apples cou-
tain larger percentage than any other
fruit or vegetable, renews the essential
nervous matter of the brain and spinal
column. Oh, the ancients were not
wrong when they esteemed the apple
the food of the gods-the magic renew
er of youth to which the gods resorted
when they felt themselves growing old
and feeble, think I'll have an apple"
concluded the doctor.-New York Trib-
