f
A Hole in the Bank,
Prof. Tilton and son, who appear to
think they have found a quicksilver
deposit on the north side of Edwards’
grade just'above the watering trough,
are cutting into the bank a hole the
size of which makes the natives: stare,
“T’ll be danged,” said’ one of the
natives who came to: town yesterday,
“if they haven’t started a ‘tunnel the
mouth of whichis thirty-five feet wide,
and the roof of which ig going to be
over twenty-five feet high.”
A rumor is out to the effect that the
Tiltons are pretending to mine there as
a mere blind, their real object in settling in such a picturesque and lonely
locality. being to tunnel into the mountain a distance of several thousand
feet and then to scoop out the center of
the mountain till they have a cave
that will rival the mammoth
caveof Kentucky. This cave they
could rtilizé as a summer resort,
and by connecting it with the county
seat by a cable railroad would doubtless get a good many boarders in the
heatedterm. Johnnie Holbrook, who
has been driving the Eureka stage for
several days past, and thus had a good
opportunity to watch the work, does
not take any stock in the cave story.
He thinks the Tiltons are just trying
to n.ake a level place to build a barn

A USEFUL INVENTION.
—_—
Fenner’s Rock-Separator for Workine
Flat Mining Ground.
—
City, Montana, has patented through
the Mining and Scientific Patent
Agency an apparatus to separate the
larger rock from the finer material in
ground-sluice and hydraulic mining,
where want of fall or other conditions
make it necessary to keep the heavier
material from going into a bed-rock
flume. To owners of flat mining
ground this invention is a very “important one, as it will be found of the
Greatest utility. It will in this direction have a large field of usefulness.
Mr. Fenner, who was one of the
pioneers of Alder Gulch, Montana,
has had some 27 years experience in
working flat ground. The usefulness
of a practical separator by which rock
cally is apparent to every miner who
has worked ground where want of fall
or other conditions make it necessary
to keep the heavier material from going into a bed-rock flume. Where
there is want of fall it is made possible to work with a flume having little
grade, and where the condition of
dump is such as to make it desirable
to retain the larger rock, the scoop in
this machine can be grated coarsely
80 as to keep back only such as will
interfere with the dump.
In mines where it is necessary to
impound tailing this machine may aid
in the solution of a difficult problem.
Where rapid work is required, two or
more separators can be used on a line
above the head of the flume. The
scoop of the head separator would
then have a coarse grating and the
onés below. would be graded so that
the gravel will be given the required
fineness before passing into the flume.
The lower half of the 15 miles of
Alder Gulch, Montana, has but little
fall, and only the finest portion of the
gravel can be allowed to pass off
through the bedrock flumes, which
are necessarily of very light grade.
Mr. Fenner owns a portion of this flat
ground, and has for some years experimerted with and perfected appliances to remove the rock. This machine is the result, and a boy with
this can do the work of half a dozen
men with forks and wheelbarrows,
and so effectually that a bedrock flume
with a grade of linch to 12 feet carries the tailings with ease that pass
the machine. The accompanying engraving shows the apparatus patented
by Mr. Fenner.
In-the—lower—portion—of-the-frame=
work of the apparatus is formed a
small sluice, one end of which connects with the ground sluice. A horizontal grizzly is placed over the other
end of the sluice. A perforated ‘or
grated scoop is pluced over this sluice
and directly behind the grizzly. This
scoop has a frame mounted on a
pivotal shaft, by whic it may turn
through an arc in a vertical plane,
making a partial revolution for the
purpose of dumping its load. A vertical grating or grizzly is located between the horizontal grizzly and the
scoop. This grating is secured to a
frame having a pivotal shaft, whereby it. may be raised or lowered about
the shaft as 4 center through an are in
& vertical plane.
One end of the motor shaft (run by
water-wheel) carries.a friction pulley
which operates on another placed on
a winding-drum, to which is secured a
cable, passing over suituble pulleys
and connected with the frame of the
scoop.
A weight is suspended by cables
passing over pulleys, and connects
with the frame of the scoop, by which
the scoop is turned to a vertical position where, by reason of its center of
gravity being on its grated side, jt
gravitates to and is held in its normal
position. A car is run in ona track
There is talk of putting down a pat-. just back of the scoop and is to receive
ent cement sidewalk in front of the. itg Joad. Thera is a brake-lever for
Odd Fellows Hall, the Citizens Bank,
and Rosenberg’s building. The County
Supervisors will also be urged to have
the line extended in front of the
Treasury building. These sidewalks
are much neater in appearance and
more healthful than’ wooden walks,
and on account of their durability are
cheaper intheend. At Grass Valley
they are quite commayn. Kven livery
stable properties in that enterprising
town possess them,
Who Can He Be?
A drummer for a Sacramento firm
has been making love to a Grass Valley girl, and a scandal has been caused by the discovery that the gay
Lotharig has a wife and baby at Sacramento. It is also claimed that there
is in San Francisco a woman whom
he once married and neglected to sub‘quently get a divorce from. That
‘ chap ought to recejve the attention of
the Truckee tar-bucket brigade.

controlling the movement of the winding-drum,
The operation of the apparatus is as
follows: The material is fed through
any suitable short flume or sluice,
properly graded and arranged, to and
upon the horizontal grizzly, through
which a portion of the finer materia}
passes into the sluice below. The vertical grating is at this time elevated so
that the passage is clear tothe main
separator scoop, through which the
remainder of the finer materia] passes
into the slujce below, while all the
large rocks are retained. As soon as
thia-scoop hus a sufficient load the
lever is moved, so as to relieve the
winding-drum of its brake, therehy
allowing the operation of the friction
gearing and the rotation of the drum
which winds up thecable. The scoop
is thereby drawn over through a partial revolution so as to discharge its
load upon the car.
Before this is done, however, the
leyer is raised from its rack, whereby
the vertical grate is allowed to move
down and stap the passage of the
large rocks while the sco:p is discharging its Joud. When the scoop
the vertical grating is again raised to
its position, and the operation continves as before. The weight referred to
is so suspended and connected with
the scoop that when the scoop is in a
normal po ition the weight acts against
it, to agsist the main power in dumping it; but when the scoop passes the
center the weight acts to bring it back
again.
Owners of flat mining ground will

Fenher’s process of working, before
the eonditforis of his ground would

A Recently Invanted Machine For Working Flat Mining Ground.
“Commencing at my lower line,
where there was an outlet for only fine
tailings at the creek level, some manner of mining was necessary in order
to be profitable whereby the water of
the gulch could be made to hoist and
wash the gravel at the surface until a
point was reached above, where a
flume of small grade would touch bedrock and have its dump near my lower
line. For this purpose f£ constructed
pa machine, similir to the one now used
for removing rock from the ground
sluice; with-the addition of anincline
track and self-dumping .cars to carry
the gravel from bedrock -to ‘the
machine. Using this machine, a pit
100 feet up the gulch, the width of the
pay streak and to the bedrock (17 feet
deep) was shoveled. into cars, hoisted
to the machine and washed, and the
rock piled out, of the way, the fine
gravel pussing off through ashort
string of sluices, possessing the same
advantages for'saving gold as undercurrents,
“After clearing a pit as described, it
served for impounnding the tailings,
which were ground-sluiced nearly halfway to bedrock, from the top of a pit
of equal area above. While fillingthe
pit, the water from the ground sluice
passed off below through a box tuailrace, with only full sufficient to carry
clear water, and which ulso served as
adrain. This box trail-race was made
strong enough to resist the pressure of
the overlying wet gravel, which was
considerable while ground-sluicing.
ft was Taid to the head of each pit be=
fore filling, and the water let into it by
a shaft, or monument,which was built
up,as filling progressed, so as to keep
the sand and gravel from entering the
tail-yace. After stripping in this manner, the machine was moyed up on the
filled ground, and the remainder of the
gravel shoveled into cars and hoisted
as before, when the process of filling
by ground-sluicing the surface from
another pit was repeated,
‘(A 12-foot overshot water-wheel,
driven by 80 miners’ inches of water,
gave the power to hoist the gravel
from bedrock, and to carry the washed
rock from the machine back on the
worked groynd ; the same water which’
furnished power for hoisting _ being
turned on to the sluices between each
carload to wash the gravel. Working
by this method fo: several ye.rs, five
men (one to tend machifie and four to
shovel) ren:oved and washed 12,144
‘cubic yards of gravel. each mining
season, 185 days being the average
season.
“Reaching «a point on my yround
where a flume was practical, my rockseparator was brought into use. This
machine is placed near the ground -to
be mined, ang at the head of a 30-inch
bedrock flume having a grade of one
inch’to 12 feet. A moveable fluthe
which can be curved to accoinmodate
the ground-sluce above, and given sufficient grade, carries the heavy gravel
to the machine, where the rock is
separated and dumped automatically
on either side of the main flume, forming a continuous pile-as the works are
moved up. My plan of working is to
keep the gronnd-sluice V shaped, with
the point down toward the machine.
While ground-sluicing ig progressing
on one side of the V, bedrock can be
cleaned on the other, After groundsluicing and cleaning bedrock on one
side of the V, a low wall is built against
the unworked ground, and the top from
the central line of the gulch toone side
is stripped in the same manner as before described when the sjuiging wag
dane gt the surface, the contingous pile
of rock at the side of the main flume
restraining the tailings but allowing
the water to pass off comparatively
clear, This leaves a little over half of
the bank to be ground-sluicel and
separated by machine.”’
There is, without doubt, throughout
the Pacific States and Territories, a
large amount of ground which might
he profitably mined by the use af
these machines.

Prominent Salvationists Comine to Nevada City.
——
Beginning on Wednesday next, and
continuing for one week, the Salvation
Army will have a ‘big time” at this
city.
Brigadier Fielding and his headquarter staff, brass band and volunteers, including about #’dozen of the
leading members of the Pacific Coast
department of the Army, will bs here.
They will most-likely be reinforced by
a large delegation of Grass Valley
members of both sexes, and with the
local. contingent-.which is headed by
Lieutenant Hauk will have a street —
parade and service every evening.
On Sunday they will have services as
follows: 7 A. M., sword sharpening ; 11
4. M., holiness meeting; 3 Pr. «,, sword
exercise ; 8 P. M., salvation in streams.
“Joe the Turk,” ax irrepressible
Salvationist who was formerly a shoemaker and a hard case, and’ has been
imprisoned several times for making
too much noise in preaching will with
his Turkish uniform be a prominent
attraction among the visitors.
There will be a banquet at the barracks on Saturday, August 4th, and an
ice cream and cake festival on the following Monday evening when recruits
will be sworn in.
The Salvationists have secured the
Baptist church for the week’s services,as it is believed the barracks building .
is not big enough to accommodate the
crowd that will attend.
