be one of the most difficult in the
state to work, the cyanide process
is now being used exclusively. So
far the millmen have been enabled
to secure only 10 to rs per cent
recovery, having treated ore of a
gross value of $150,000 by the
cyaniding process since rejecting
the oil-flotation' plan. All work done
at the mill up to three months ago
was considered purely of an ex-
perimental nature in an effort to
determine the best process for the
refractory ore of the district. The
average value of ore handled up
to January of this year was
$17.54 per ton, which includes some
ore from one Of the old stope fills
Of the mine.
In one spot in the mine there is
a stope filled with about 100000
tons Of mill ore, covering eigtheeen
acres, half Of which can be saved
and which will average about $13
per ton. There are also enormous
ore and waste dumps to be worked,
the value of which have not yet
been estimated.
There is more than six miles of
underground work in the various
properties at Unionville, with three
different formations-contact, fis-
sure and blanket veins. The ter
ritory was originally sea bottom
and fossil is found frequently.
There are great many contacts Of
rhyolite and lime, several large fis-
sures cut through the entire dis
trict, but the blanket veins are most
prolific in values. Good ore bodies
have been found in the fssures and
blankets, but have not yet been
developed in the contacts.
The mine works and mill are air
and electrically equipped through
out, the mill having been designed
to handle 100 tons of ore daily.
All of the mining equipment is
first class in character. There is a
l50-horsepower Fairbanks-Morsee en-
gine to furnish mill power, and a
50-horsepower Doak on the air COM
pressor. No hoist power is needed
because all work has been done in
tunnels.
In the mill there is four by five
foot ball mill, Dorr cyaniding equip
ment and Oliver filters. The process
is to crush ore to go mesh, separate
the sands and shines, which latter
are of $50 mesh and require cy-
aniding for only "a hours. The
sands go to concentrating tables
and to teaching vats for a 72-hour
treatment, which slows up the pro-
cess and of course cuts down the
capacity of the mill. The millmen
are now working on the installation
Of equipment necessary to add the
Vandercoop process, which it is
aoped will cut the time cycle of ore
treatment to the extent that the
,apacity of the mill may be doubled.
The Vandercoop process consists of
The introduction of a small amount
IF mercury in the cyaniding solu-
lion. Tests have shown that the
process will bring the extraction up
% 80 per cent or better. The nee
essary equipment is now at Mill
City and can be installed without
topping the mill.
All in all, the mining situation
appears exceedingly bright at Union
vile, with worlds of ore ready for
working, the mill problems solved,
and the immediate prospect of a
consolidation that will assure ade-
luate capital for development, and
indicates that it may be expected
that the old camp will take its
place during the coming months as
one of the states steady producers.

public five delicious reels of fun,
excitement, romance and revolution
in "The Dictator" based on the
famous play by the late Richard
Harding Davis, in which Willie Col
lier scored a distinct success sew

The story shows how a young
American falls in love with the
pretty daughter of a South Ameri-
can "liberator," follows her south
and there becomes embroiled in a
revolution of which her father is
the instigator, not knowing that his
own father, the banana king, is
on the other side for business and
political reasons. He wins the revo-

found respect after a series of
exciting adventures which fairly
brim with suspense, mystery, con-

"The Storm" Great Stuff
What James w. Dean in the
Newspaper Enterprise Association
says, about Tuesdays picture:
"The Storm" is coming! And
when it arrives at your movie thea
tre, see it, for it is one photoplay

"The Storm" will sweep you up
in the intensity of its drama, thrill
you with its stark realism, awe you
with its majesty of vast outdoors
and make your pulse drum with a
lively tune in your temples with its
adventurous episodes.

STURGEON LAKE BOY
KILLED BY LIGHTNING

Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Kings nine
year old son, Tommy, was in
stantly killed by lightning a
week ago Sunday when he was
standing in the doorway of his
home at Sturgeon Lake.
The Moose Lake Star-Gazette
gives an account Of the death as
follows:
Tommy, who was playing out
of-doors with his little brothers
and sisters, ran into the house
when the storm broke. He had
been wearing a pair of tennis
shoes. These were wet and he
took them off. Boy-like, he
wanted to watch the storm. He
went to the open doorway and
stood on the threshold, over
which had been nailed a piece of
link to cover up a worn spot, to
watch the rain. Suddenly a flash
of lightning split the sky and
Tommy fell. Two of his little
brothers who were standing
directly behind him, received
slight shocks. The fact that he
was standing on this piece of wet
zinc with naked feet is attributed
as the cause of his untimely
death, as the house was not
struck by lightning. 1t was at
first thought that the bolt had
come into the home over the cleo
trio light wires, but upon exami-
nation it was found that the
fuses had not been blown and the
lights were in good order.
Little Tommy's funeral was
held Tuesday and interment
made in the Sturgeon Lake ceme-
terry.
This is the second death in the
King family within two years, an
elder son, Stub having passed
away with flu and pneumonia"

MILACA GIRL is
THEATRICAL STAR

The Mile Laos County Times
of last week contained the fol-
lowing interesting story concern
ing a former Milaca girl who is
meeting with great success on
the stage:
Miss Belle Bennett, daughter
