A Success In Nevada County as Far as
~ Tried,
In this county electric power is transmitted. to the South Yuba river to
Grass Valley—a distance of some eight
miles—without any considerable loss.
Upon this subject Prof. George Forbes
says in :the .Engineering Magazine:
There has been an absurd hesitation to
undertake the transmission of power
to great distances. If engineers who
have had experience in the transmission of power and in the conversion of
alternating into continuous currents
would lock into this question, they
would be convinced that where water
power is available it is generally economical to transmit electrical power
hundreds of miles for working railways.
As an example, it can be proved that
if the railway. companies of Scotland
were tocombine to work their trunk
lines by means of electric locomotives,
the electric current being developed by
the water power which~ exists in that
country, then the whole of that service
might be carried on without the use of
steam locomotives. E
Another lesson to be drawn from a
careful consideration of the subject is.
that the waste of coal on steam locomotives is not by any means compensated
by the extra cost and loss of _power in
electrical. transmission. Estimates
have been.prepared= which show that’
not only is the cost of copper prohib“ited, but that efficiency of the electric . "
system renders the consumption of
coal with stationary engines about as
great as with locomotives. This is. certainly not the case. The cost of electric transmission, when properly effected, is not comparable with: what_ it
is as calculated on the lines adopted in
the past; and, on the other.hand, the
efficiency of dynamos and motors has
not been sufficiently considered in
street railway practice in, the United
States. ca
A BIG. MINING PUMP.
It Throws Nevada County’s Big Water
Raisers Into the Shade. .
If the details and figures given by a
of the'Calumet and Hecla mine, it is,
without doubt, the greatest mechanism
of the kind in the world, its capacity
of water delivery being some 2,500,000
gallons every hour in the twenty-four,
most. The apparatus is.a triple expansion’ PUMping engine with a capacfifty feet in Bight, and requiring 1500
horse power . ‘9? its operation; and it
has proved by’ aetual tests that its
nominal perfor: nee can be easily
maintained for an ,udefinite time without injury or strain, 20d that, pushed
to the full extent, the ump could handle approximately 85,000,000 gallons in
twenty-four consecutive hours. The
purpose of this pump is to furnish
water for the great stamp mills of the
Calumet and Hecla Company, which
have twenty-five steam pumps in (o0ntinuous operation, daily pulverizing
5000 tons of conglomerate rock into
sand so fine that it can be carried away
by a stream of swiftly running water.
The, pump is located near the lake
shore and below the mills so as to
force a steady stream of water to the
upper portions of the mill, where ingreat slime tables and jigs. Here it is
that the specific gravity of the particles
of copper contained in the rock separate the valuable mineral from a mass
of worthless sand, the size and force oi
the streams of waiter being so nicely
regulated as to wash away the sand and
yet carry with it the minimum of copTONIGHT'S BANQUET.
