FUN FOR THE FOURTH,
Preparing For One of the Finest Celebrations Ever Held Here.
Those people who have been saying
that they were afraid this year’s celebration at Nevada City would be a failure did not know what they were talking about. The fact is it will be one
of the best we have ever had.
The general committee had a meeting last night at the City Hall and had
reports from the sub-committees that
were highly satisfactory. ‘
$837 has been subscribed to date and
more is likely to be added. Most of
this money has been coflected.
A platform 156 by 50 feet in dimensions is to be erected—probably on
Pine street between Broad and Commercial. An awning will be stretched
over it and here the literary exercises
are to take plac in the forenoon and
there is to be a free dance at night.
A committee of Nevada City Lodge,
No. 52,\A. O. U. W., held a meeting last
night and decided that the lodge turn
out in the parade. ‘They will be headed by their drill team, carry a large
banner and wear a uniform of black
trousers, white shirts, light hats and
dusters. As the lodge has some 300
members it is expected that there will
be a large turnout.
The baseball players of the Seaweed
club will be in the Fourth of July procession. :
Eagie Hose Co., No. 3, heid a special
meeting last night and decided to turn
out. Their uniform will be black
trousers, a red shirt and a white hat.
Hon. George E. Church, the orator,
will arrive here from Fresno on Monday afternoon’s train. He will be-met
at the station by the literary committee and escorted to his hotel. That
evening an informal reception will be
held at the hotel-in his honor under
the management of Mountain Company,U. R. K. of P.,the distinguished visitor being’ a very prominent Knight.
This reception will be participated in
by the general public, and the Knights
of Sherwood Forest will be specially
invited to attend in full uniform.
The holding of the literary exercises
in the open air instead of at the theater
is a wise change, as it will enable several thousand people instead of the 700
or 800 who could crowd into the theater to hear the famous orator. Judge
Church has a clear, penetrating voice
and his magnetic eloquence will insure
the undivided attention of the vast
throng he is to address. His speeches
excite the admiration and awaken the
entbusiasm of the old and young of all
classes and conditions. ‘The orator of
the west possesses such a remarkable
faculty of saying so much in a given
time and yet saying it so well. He has
the incisive originality of Chauncey
Depew and the glowing eloquence that
made the fame of Edward Everett immortal, :

A Good Field Here.
There isa party claiming to represent a Chicago scheme called the “Iilustrated Educational History and Enterprises of California,” going the rounds,
getting people to pay fat prices for the
publication of “sketches” and pictures
that will tickle their vanity. The
county officers of Placer are on his
list. He will probably be this way
soon. Nevada county is generally
good plucking for these games.
———_ + -2@e-+ —Picnic Weather.
The weather bureau forecaster predicted showers for this afternoon and
tonight, and that it will be cloudy and
cool tomorrow, as it is this forenoon.
What Is Shiloh ?

De Vries in Nevada County.
Yesterday's Auburn Republican
says: Congressman Marion De Vries
came.up from Stockton Monday night
and was a guest at the Hotel Conroy.
On Tuesday Mr. De Vries drove to the
Garnier.mine, over the line in Nevada
county, in which he is interested. The
mine is now known as the Baltimore.
He returned to Stockton Tuesday afternoon.

ME CYANIDE PROCESS.
Likely to Accomplish Great Results For
the Mining Industry:
How general the application of the
cyanide process will become. is a matter for the future to determine. In its
early history it was thought, accord-’
ing to the Mining and Scientific Press,
that it could be successfully applied
to almost every class of ore, but it was
soon demonstrated that this was nota
fact; the tide turned in the other dfrection and it was then thought that
its range of application was limited to
a few ores particularly adapted’ to it.
Since then several years of experiment
and successful application has broad-.
ened its field of operation very materially and at this time it cannot be said
with assurance that it will not cover a
In no other place, perbaps, has an
absolute confidence in its ultimate
success been demonstrated than in
Montana. After repeated and expensive failure every difficulty has. been
vercame in several localities, and
‘where first it was an obsolute failure
it is now an unqualified success.Experiments are constantly being
made in the chemistry of the process
and in its mechanical application. It
has long since become evident that no
one method will make it applicable to
all ores or all conditions, bat. the process is a rational one and one which
will not only endure, but will find
much improvement in the future. The
precipitation of gold on _ shavings,
threads and granulated particles of
zinc is not all that can be desired, but
improvements may be anticipated in
this branch of the process. Electricity, in some modification of the process, is already playing an important
part and further development may be
looked for in this direction. ae:
Slimes of the most dense and im-'
pervious characters are now successfully treated by agitation and decantation where vacuu:n filters and pressure tanks failed absolutely to produce
the desired results. ‘The contrivance
used to secure a uniform agitation of
the pulp is an ingenius device—the
outcome of the necessities of the case.
These are only isolated examples which
exemplify the fertility of resources of
the men who have made and are still
making the history of the cyanide process.

COPPER MINING,
A Good Feld for Development Hore
in Nevada County.
A correspondent of the Grass Valley
Tidings-Telegraph says: Twenty-five .
yéars ago when copper was quoted at
about 15cents per pound the region be.
tween the Downey House and Spence-.
ville and from thence north to Mooney .
Flat. swarmed with prospectors. No;
fess than one hundied locations of copper were made and the prospects were.
excellent for a permanent boom in copper mining. Then copper fell to sucha .
price that the prospectors become dis.
couraged and abandoned their claims .
as they did in many places in the
United States.
Now with copper: touching the price
of 20 cents with the prospect of going to
25 cents within a year, there seems no!
reason why prospeciing for copper in!
the Spenceville district shall not be!
revived, The ore is there and in pay-.
ing quantities. Both geologists and
miners all agree in this. All that is'.
needed is a smelter to set the ball rolling and aguin fill the woods with prospectors.
Other towns have the advantages of ,
being county seats, or railroads termi-.
nuses, or rich agricultural resources,
but Grass Valley must always depend .
‘for its prosperity oh tke prospector. .
-& big population is not ulways proof of
commercial prosperity but lots of,

prosperity. It circulates money, which .
means abundant business. There are
other mining towns throughout the
State that have long pay rolls but
were never in the same ¢élass as Grass
Valley, because there was no general
prospecting in their neighborhood.
New Almaden, Angels Oamp. and
Forbestown are illustrations. All over:
the United States there are other exam‘ples of the rule that mining towns de.
pend for their commercial prosperity
on the prospector. It isas certain as
the law of gravitation: and: as uncontrollable. ;
We have abundant local capital in
Grass Valley, interested in real estate
and in the future of our city. The revived copper prospects will afford them
an opportunity to do what they have
been doing for a score of years—encouraging the prospector with capital
and credit. I for one look for a ‘great
advance in this direction and that too
in the neer future, Me

that Mexico, with its.45-cent dollar and
