Gold in Coal.

In describing the Cambria coal field
Of Wyoming, an expert mentions the
interesting fact that gold and silver
are present in small quantities In the
coal. From the occurrence Of iron
pyrite, which is distributed through
out the coal seam, it is suspected that
this mineral carries the precious met
ais. The coke made from the coal is
used in the smelling works, and aver
ages from one to two pennyweights OF
gold per ton, which is sufficient to
compensate for high ash content.
There has been similar occur
renee in South Africa. The coal oc.
Cured in small seams running through
the quartzite ore, and in places was
quite rich in gold, the ash being col
ored bright purple by the finely
divided particles of metal.-Exchange.

til you get to the top layer, then re-
verse the process. In filling the
barrel put the hams in first then the
shoulders and pack the bacon strips
and other small pieces in the spaces
Cover the meat with the following
brine made the day before, using fol-
every 100 pounds of meat: $40 pounds
of salt, PPM pounds Of sugar dis
solved in four gallons Of boiling wa
ter. The mixture should be well heat
ed until the sugar is dissolved and
then cooled.
Plain salt pork will need no further
treatment and can be left in the brine
until ready to use, but if you wish
sugar cured hams and bacon, remove
them from the brine after five days
reverse the pieces, and if the brine is
ropy wash out the barrel and put in
new brine. Bacon should be left in
the brine from four to six weeks and
hams from six to eight weeks.
When the meat has remained in the
brine for the proper length of time il
should be removed and soaked in
fresh water for one-half hour ano
then washed in lukewarm water. Let
dry for "a hours and then start the
smoking process. Begin with a slow
fire and hold the temperature of the
smokehouse below 120 degrees F
Smoke two days or longer according
to the flavor desired. At the end OF
the smoking period open the doors Of
the smoke house and cool the meat
For smoking use green hickory OF
maple smothered with sawdust
Corncobs are also very good.
Smoked meats should be carefully
wrapped in manila paper and Their
sewed in muslin sacks. Paint each
with the following yellow wash. Fo,
each 100 pounds of ham or bacon use
8 pounds of Barium Sulphate, O.Oe
pounds Of glue, 0.0S pounds of Chrome
Yellow (Poison) and 0.40 pounds Of
flour. Fill a pail half full with waite,
and dissolve the -four in this, ther
add the Chrome yellow which has
been dissolved in quart Of water anc

TONG CHIEF BUSINESS MAN
keong Kew, Not Bit Like Character
Seen in the "Movies"-Has
No Gun.

What is your conception Of Chi
nese tong leader?
A sinister person of poker coun-
tenance. with Topping sandals and a
flowing silken robe out Of which he
can whisk snicker-snee or pistol
with Maxim silencer-the minute he
gets you in the revolving passage, who
kidnaps girls and hires gunner, and
who can call vast yellow hordes from
nowhere by merely clapping his
hands?
That's the kind of tong leader de-
picted in some motion pictures and
novels, says the Detroit News.
Now meet Mr.. Leong Kow of San
Francisco, who recently visited the
Detroit branch of his organization in
the course Of q transcontinental tour
of inspection.
There Is no austerity, nothing cryp-
tic, about Mr.. Kow. He greets you
with smile and a joke and a hearty
handclasp. He is dressed like an
American business man and conducts
himself like one. His English is prob
ably little better than some business
mems. You can search him and find
no sword. knife or firearm, and no
guards attend him as he walks about
the streets. He will tell you that
the purpose Of his tong is not the
shedding of blood. but Americaniza-
ton.
1T is quite droll," says Mr.. Kow,
ITO meet Americans who think all tong
men are walking arsenals. and are out
securing for victims from rival tongs.
The treatment we get in literature
and in the theater makes us laugh, but
sometimes 1t makes us angry, too.
Such caricature Of honest, Industrious,
law-abiding Chinese in the United
States is wrong. Probably it is due
mainly to ignorance; most Americans
do not appreciate the true character
Of the Chinese.
1T is the purpose Of the tong which
have the honor to head to break
down these barriers OF prejudice be-
tween white and yellow Americans,
and bring each to know and under
stand the other. In the English Ian
guage our tong is the Chinese-Ameri-
can citizens alliance.
1t Is progressive Chinese society,
whose control is in the hands Of Amer
ican-born Chinese. We are working
to bring Chinese into closer social con-
tact with the other Americans.

ORIGIN OF DRINKING PLEDGE
Custom Said to Have Originated at
the Time of the Danish Inva.
sion Of England.

In work entitled observations on
the Popular Antiquities of Great Brit
ain: Chiefly Illustrating the Origin of
Our Vulgar and Provincial Customs,
Ceremonies, and Superstitions," by
John Brand, NJ. A., fellow and secre>
tary of the Society Of AntiQuaries of
London, those curious about drinking
customs could find much entertain
ment. Under the head of ''Pledging"
1t gives the origin of that custom.
The word pledge is most probably
derived from the French plelge,
surety or gage. Some deduce the ex-
preston ''I'll pledge YOU in drinking,
from the time when the Danes bore
sway in the island. 1t is said to have
been common with these ferOciOus
people to stab native In the act Of
drinking, with a knife or dagger;
thereupOn people would not drink In
company, unless some one present
would be their pledge or surety that
they should receive no hurt whilst
they were in their draught.
Dr. Henry's History Of Great Brit
ain" says:
IF an Englishman presumed to
drink in the presence of Dane, with
out his express permission, it was
esteemed so great a mark Of disre-
spect, that nothing but instant death
could expiate. Nay, the English were
so intimidated that they would not
venture to drink even when they were
invited, until the Danes had pledged
their honor for their safety"
