LONDON, Jan. %. - The story
of a colonel of Australian infantry
who was wounded in the Gallipoli
campaign and sent back to Aus
tralia, but who concealed his rank
and re-enlisted as a private to
serve with the Australians in
France is added to the esteem in
which Australians are held in Lon
don. Colonel Charles Melville
MacNaghten, the hero of the story,
is held as a man of gallantry and
grit.
He was the son of Sir Melville
Macnaghten, chief of the criminal
investigation department of Scot
land Yard, says the Daily Mail,
and was practicing law in Austral-
ia when the war began. He was
the major in command of the first
brigade which landed at Amaze
cove on Gallipoli peninsula. With
in two days he was wounded three
times. After recovery in England
he returned to Gallipoli and led
his battalion in their memorial
charge at Lone Pine.

a decision by the management to
explore 100 feet deeper. The No.
COL drift later was started north
and has now been advanced far
enough for results to be expected
in the near future. The main OBJ
ject of the company in drifting on
the 6O0-foot level is to reach and
prospect territory under the old
Rogers lease stope, as is being
cone above the stope by the Crack
Ell Jack company.
The Rogers stope extends from
the $50 to 550-foot level and dur
ing the operation of the lease no
attempt vas made to open the vein
on the foot-wall, although numer-
Gus parallel ore-shoots have been
found neal the stope. Work in the
cid lease was devoted entirely to
taking the bonanza ore from the
great stope and no attention was
paid to possibilities in other parts
of the vein. The high-grade ore
was not opened until near the ex-
piration of the lease, and then four
shifts of miners were employed at
big wages to break the ore in a
race against time.
Conditions above and below this
stope are now practically the same
as when the famous lease expired,
which leads competent authorities
10 be confident that other rich ore
bodies will be exposed in the vein.

being developed through four
shafts, three of which. are fully

continued without interruption
since operations first began over
two years ago,
Since last report, April 20, 655
feet of work has been done and
large quantities of ore exposed. Be-
cause of the scarcity of labor and
high cost of supplies, which has
been acute the past year owing to
war conditions, the work has not
been carried n as vigorously as it
would have been if times had been
nrmal. However, we have been
able to make satisfactory progress
at the mine, while we have made
use of the interim in laboratory
tests to determine the proper pro-
cess to install in our proposed re-
duction plant.
"TheSe tests AVE been carried

formation at IT'S feet, where sew
eral hundred feet of drifting was
done without important results.
At 400 feet the shaft first entered
the unaltered rhyolite breccia and
this led to the decision to con-
tinue another 100 feet SO as to be
sure sufficient depth has been
gained in the more favorable for
nation before prosecuting to the
vein and drifting.
On the 175-foot level low-grade
ore was found in places and low
assays we're secured throughout
the work of driving the drifts,
which served to show that suffi-
cient depth had not been gained
on the vein.
Sinking of the shaft another
100 feet will require but a short
time, as three shifts of miners are
employed and $50 feet per month
has been the rate of sinking to
the present depth.

Divide mine, where the ore in the
cap rock largely contains gold
and is spotted. Upon opening the
vein in the Divide breccia below the
ore is confined to regular shoots.
'The main vein so far developed
in the district is the Divide fault,
which runs northwest and south
east. It has been traced for a
distance of four miles and, while
there is no great displacement in
evidence, it is certain that the for
nations on the south side relatively
have been lifted. West of the
main Divide mine the fault plane
loses its identity as such and ap-
pears as five distinct veins which
gradually disappear toward the
west by becoming smaller and then
showing only as crushed n in
the rock, which finally disappear.
For a mile and a half southeast
of the Divide mine this zone is
represented by a belt of highly
broken rock that crosses the
range of hills. Beyond this is the
flat ground where the upper part
of the cap-rock rhyolite has been
removed, and the Divide fault plane
again appears as we'll defined veins
on the ground Of the Rosetta,
Homestake and Gold Wedge claims,
Toward the southeast these veins
gradually lose their definite char
acter and become mere crushed
zones which finally disappear.
at has been found that the ore
shoots occur in the main cir
only where the cross veins intersect
or merge with the main vein. The
orebodies also extend along the
cross veins for some distance from
the main veins. This is we'll shown
in the Divide mine, where the
large ore-shoot is in the main Di-
vide fault vein where a number of
cross veins enter it from the south.
other development in the Divide
fault shows that ore apepars only
where cross veins are in evidence
In summarizing general condi-
lions in the district, DR.. Elftman
says: "The development of the
Divide district SO far has shown
that the Divide breccia in which
the ore-shoots occur is covered by
a cap-rock formation up to 700 feet
thick. The veins carrying the ore
break through the cap rock, but
do not carry paying orebodies.
Therefore it is necessary to sink
through the cap rock before re of
commercial grade may be expected.
Amy ore found in the cap rock is
only an indication or justification
for sinking into the Divide breccia.
1t is probable that some ore of
commercial grade will be found in
the cap rock, but it will not pay to
search for ore in this zone"

larger copper plants of the coun-
try; in fact, it is altogether likely
that the process that has been evolv-
ed through many months of exper-
imentation will give something
new to the ~metallurgical world;
and if the process is p~atentable, as
we expect, will prove an asset to
the Jumbo Copper Mountain Min
ing company of i~ncalculable value.
The Sill & Sill testing plant is being
enlarged to apply laboratory tests
to 500 and 100-pound lots, and if
equally successful the problem will
have been solved and the Jumbo
Copper Mountain Mining company
will own a process for treating cop
per carbonate and sulphide ores
that will be a distinct advance
upon any present process for econ
omy and efficiency"

geology of the district and not by
the customary sampling Of veins
at the surface or in the zap rock,
it is necessary to consider fully the
salient geological features.
"At the present depth of devel-
opment, it is evident that the old
est and lowest formation thus far
exposed is a true volcanic breccia,
to which the name of Divide breccia
has been given. The Divide brec-
cha was largely, IL not entirely, q
volcanic mud flow, whose peculiar
composition evidently was respon-
sblie for the deposition of the rich
silver and gold ore in the veins
which cut this breccia. This brec-
cia has been penetrated to a. depth
of 800 feet and the indications
are that it is several times thicker.
"The thickness of this forma-
ton has an important bearing on
the possible tonnage of ore that
will be developed in the Divide dis
trict. Throughout the Divide dis
trict proper the breccia is covered
by a Gaping from SO to 700 feet
thick. This formation is called
Tonopah rhyolite and the 'Tonopah
rhyolite surface flows gradually
pass into and become known as the
Siebert lake beds or tufts.
THE upper part Of the Divide
bIeccia and the lower layer of
the Tonopah rhyolite have a strong
resemblance and sometimes are
difficult to separate. The con-
tact between these two formations
is an important point to record in
the development of any property in
tie district"
In discussing the veins of the
district, DR.. Elftman says: AFTER
the deposition of the Tonopah rhy-
olite and the Siebert lake beds the
Divide district was subjected to a
period of intense faulting and
movement. Some of these faults
are attended by intense crushing
and grinding and show a wide
zone of movement. In places this
movement spread out into
several hundred feet wide, instead
of being confined to narrow zones.
Most of these strong and striking
faults are unsolicited, marked by
soft gouge and have the appearance
of wide shearing zones in the Di-
vide breccia.
These fault planes are the veins
in this district and all of the ore
so far found has been found in
these faults. The faults extend
up through the everything .Tonopah
rhyolite and tufts. On account of
the character of these formations
where the fault breaks through a
wide zone of narrow, shattered
and irregular fractures is produc-
ed. Taken individually the veins
lack definition and persistence.
They may disappear by scattering
and passing into a silicified wall,
or may be cut off along cross frac-
lures. Taken collectively it is
found that the veins follow we'll
defined zones which are fault
planes and appear as prominent
reefs in parts of the district, es-
pecially in the northern art"
Extensive work has proven that
the ore in the veins in the Tono-
pah rhyolite and the everything for
m~ation, which has been called the
"cap rock" is spotted and con-
tains principally gold. 1t is also
proven that when the ore-shoots
are found in the Divide breccia the
vein becomes mineralized through
out and the predominating value
of the ore is in silver.
This is we'll illustrated in the

before the legislature and be able
tc show an attendance of from Is
to 90 students.
Professor G.E. Hofmann, prin-
cipaI of the school since it started,
has urged miners anu nillmen to
attend the sessions regularly. In
the past the average attendance
ir some weeks has been as high as
16 and Professor Holman is ex-
ceedingly anxious to have the at
tendance reach this figure and re-
main there for the next two
months. The school has been OF
great benefit to men who have
been in regular attendance and
many would regret to see the in
stitution taken from Goldfield, but
Professor Hoffman, is confident
this cannot be avoided excep.
through an increased attendance.
Professor Holman has worked
conscientiously to bring the
equipment of the school to the
present standard. A model flota-
ton plant, surveying equipment
and drawing tables recently were
purchased and other improvements
are planned. The institution is
now almost completely equipped
for the teaching of all subjects
and after the success Professor
hofmann has met with in his eff
forts he would greatly regret to
have the legislature refuse an ap-
preparation for continued opera
ton of the school.
Since the institution has been
established few Goldfield. people
have been sufficiently interested
to visit it, but an inspection of the
school with Professor Holman is
interesting and he is always anx-
ious to devote all the time neces-
sary to showing visitors everything
connected with the school.
The entire process of oil flota-
ton is illustrated with a model of
the Callow pneumatic flotation ma
cine manufactured by the General
Engineering &C mpany of Salt Lake.
The machine takes a charge of 200
grams of pulp and an air lift re-
turns the pulp to the top of the
machine, providing continuous oper-
alton when desirable. Another
make of flotation machine has
been installed in the Tonopah
school and it is planned to ok
chang these, so as to provide stu
dents with an opportunity to study
different makes. With the present
equipment a cyanide plant could
readily be installed.
Mining journals are kept on file
and reference books on technical
subjects are provided for the stu
dents or for use by persons inter
ested.
As is usual, the legislature will
not consider the matter Of appro-
priations until ear the end OF
the session, which will provide two
months in which to increase the
attendance at the school, and it is
practically certain that if a good
increase is not shown the institu-
ton will not remain here.

Selling Eggs by the Pound.

Canada has been making the expert
ment of selling eggs by the pound in
stead of by the dozen, according to
Consul Fred G. Slater, Sarnia, On
tario.
"The only obstacle in the way of a
unanimous Endorsement of the plan is
seemingly that the public has not been
educated to buy that way" says Mr..
Slater. "As refuting this objection 1t
is pointed out that, in view of the wide
variation in the size of eggs, the con-
sumner would quickly realize that the
system affords a fair and just basis OF
