Hendricks, the son ‘THE NEW WATER WORKS, The Board of Trade Committes Make Some Practical Suggestions. Saturday night the City Trustees "and the Board of Trade Committee had a joint meeting and talked over the proposed system for the new water works, but no definite action was taken by the Trustees. The city fathers are carefully weighing every point and feature of the plans, and as a result will eventually give water consumers the most comprehensive and thorough system to be obtained. The following is the report submitted to the Trustees by the Board of Trade committee: hak Nevapa City, Cat, Nov. 6th, 1897: To the Hon. Board of City Trustees, of Nevada City, Cal.—Gentlemen:— The undersigned Committee of the Nevada City Board of Trade have at your request examined the proposed plans you have had prepared by Mr. Miller for the new system of water works. and would’ respectfully report, that owing to the limited time at our disposal we have not been able to give the question the careful consideration in detail that the subject warrants. As citizens of this city, we are inter~ ested in having a water system that: in addition to the usual water service, will give us a system that will give us as -=-—ear perfect fire protection a8 possible: ‘This question is of paramount importance to the city at this time, as although we have for a number of years been very fortunate in suffering only small losses by fire, yet we are in continual danger, and you must act with caution that the water system that is pat in will afford ample fire protection in the future, and it is necessary that the subject be very carefully consider ed before plans are finally adopted. Owing to the extreme difference in altitude of the different portions of the city, and the unusually large quantity of water used by its inhabitants, it is necessary that larger pipes be put in 4 than are usually used to cover these conditions. _ From the examination of the plans submitted by you that we have thus far been able to make, we are of the opinion that they provide for putting in too many small pipes, of 4 and 6 ‘inches, so that some of the higher pportions of the city will still have a vweak fire protection system, for exsample Nevada street and Prospect Hill. /And we believe it would be advisable to extend larger pipes to the higher portions of the city where the pressure is mecessarily small, even if some pipes be omitted that could afterwards be put in as occasion demands. We also recou mend that no pipes as small as four inches be used. We furiber recom hat the proposed number of new hydrants be in. creased, so that in the high parts of the city they can be placed closer toobviate the use of long lines of hose which so greatly reduce the water pressure for fire service. We wonld also call attention that in considering the proposed double system, that in addition to the reservoir at the south end, it will also be necessary. to provide a settling reservoir. We would further suggest that in your consideration of the whole subjest, that you have your engineer prepare a plan with detail estimates using as the leading proposition:—Start from the present city reservoir with « 22uch riveted steel pipe for a distance of about 500 feet, then continue with a 15-inch double riveted steel pipe to the Plaza. . Using this as the main artery, counect this properly to the present s,;stem, and aisofrom it extend proper branch pipes to the different portions of tLe c ty. Respectfully submitte 1.

A NRW PROCESS. A Miner's Novel Plan For Saving Preclous Metals. Henry Rhodes of Denver has a patent for “an impovement in the process of separating gold and silver or other precious metals from the ores.” The preparatory method is to grind the gold and silver ores to the desired fineness and theu add a certain percentage of common gypsum, also reduced to a certain mesh. To the ground ores and gypsum is added water, and the thorough mixing or churning of the primal ingredients begins. When the mixing or churning reduces the ore and gysum to a consistency of clay the matter is taken out and moulded into any form desirable and is left to dry, which takes but a very short time. After the bricks or slabs have dried they are ready to be dumped into’ tanks or other receptacles and the chemical solution is turned on. The matrices being entirely porous, the chemicals permeate the bricks and, the patentee claims, carry away in solution from 96 to 9914 per cent of all gold in the ore. Died in Visalia. News has been received here of the death at Visalia of Mrs. Emeline Edwards, who resided in this city and on Selby Flat previous to 1877.

A NRW PROCESS. A Miner's Novel Plan For Saving Preclous Metals. Henry Rhodes of Denver has a patent for “an impovement in the process of separating gold and silver or other precious metals from the ores.” The preparatory method is to grind the gold and silver ores to the desired fineness and theu add a certain percentage of common gypsum, also reduced to a certain mesh. To the ground ores and gypsum is added water, and the thorough mixing or churning of the primal ingredients begins. When the mixing or churning reduces the ore and gysum to a consistency of clay the matter is taken out and moulded into any form desirable and is left to dry, which takes but a very short time. After the bricks or slabs have dried they are ready to be dumped into’ tanks or other receptacles and the chemical solution is turned on. The matrices being entirely porous, the chemicals permeate the bricks and, the patentee claims, carry away in solution from 96 to 9914 per cent of all gold in the ore. Died in Visalia.
