LEAD, 8 D., Nov | Crosby of thé Crosby-Ehrich syndicate of | Colorado Springs, I*. 1. Weeks of Denver land two Chicago capitalists been In | | this city this week looking over the prop- erties of the Black Hills Bolt Dev company, which Is developing the | group of claims south of the Homestake | mine. The company is looking for one | of the veins of ore being worked a few hundred feet farther north in the Home- The shaft is down over 600 feet and | 1s supposed to be near the ore body. Crosby, speaking for Colorado, said “The Black Hills people do not realize | how much they are being talked about down | n our country | &iving a great deal of space news and it is the part of the newspapers | that is read trst. The people of Denver and Colorado Springs are still talking about the way the Black Hills people did things at the carnival. We Colorado people are | much disposed to put our money into Black Hills propositions. We already have a number of large enterprises under way, such as the Hidden Fortune, Belt Develop- ment and Speafish companies. There will be many more such companies in a short time. I look for a gencral boom for the Black Hills to set in from all parts of the country between now and spring. Speaking for the eastern part of the country, A. J. Bigelow of Chicago, a mem. ber of the visiting party, said: ““The money market in the east is excel- lent. Speculations in mining are more com- mon than ever before and there is a great demand for good investments in this line. The Black Hills has been pushing itselt favorably into the arcna of mines and min- ing and people back east are beginning to look to the western part of South Da- kota for places to put thelr money In preference to some of the older mining states. Large nnd Safe Investments. Special ) =W, F ve to Black Hills “We Chicago people are getting the cor- rect Idea of the majority of the mining propositions in ‘he Black Hills; that they are manufacturing propositions on a large and safe scale. People have for ages been Investing money in cottcn atd woolen madu- facturing plants, in steel mills and in other manufacturing enterprises, in which the market for the manufactured product fluc- tuates. Any ordinary man can see the dif- ference between the manufacturing of gold and the turning out of steel rails.” It is rumored that a large consolidation is on in the Ragged Top district, in which the Spearfish Mining company and the Hanschka properties will be absorbed by the American Mining company. It is ve- ported here that a proposition has been made to the Spearfish company and to the owners of the adjoining ground, and that it 1s likely that the matter will be favor- ably considered. A dozen or more influen- tlal m+n, who bave been working up the deal, have been in the Hills this week. The principal promoters will be Kil- patrick Bros. & Collins of Newcastle, who have been putting up most of the money used in the extensive development work of {the American Mining company at Ragged Top. “ Mile Tunnel Seeks Shoot This company is running a tufinel a mile search of the flat shoots of ore that are belng mined further to the east, in the Bald mountain district. The company al- ready owns something like 2,000 acres of choice ground and the properties of t | Spearfish company and the Hanschka syn- dicate adjoin on the south and east. It would be adding something like 700 acres of ground. This entire Ragged Top dle- trict is covered with immense shoots of the low-grade cyaniding ore. The Spearfish | company has more ore blocked out now than it had & year ago when the company firet began milling ore. In case the Spearfish company does not accept the proposition of the American company, one of the officlals announces that the plant that will be erected to take the place of the 200-ton plant that w. destroyed by fire this week will be in- creased In capacity to 300 tons daily. Con- siderable of the machinery can be used again in the new plant. With Ed Hanschka of Deadwood are assoclated W. O. Mor- rison and brother of Colorado City and they have a 200-ton cyanide plant far enough along for the installing of the machinery. Ore Ready for Break This syndicate has even more ore ex- posed reaay tor breaking than the Spear- fish company. If the American Mining company gets control of these two prop- erties, it will be one of the most impor- | tant consolidations ever made in the Black | Hills, Water power can be supplied from Spearfish creek to run all of the machinery | and there will be an unlimited amount of { ore, espectally should the long tunnel now | belng run encounter ore on quartzite. | company has sunk a dlamond drill down to the lower ore measures and finds quartzite | to be 1060 feet below the apex of Ragged Top. It is generally belleved that this entire country is cut by ora shoots, The Blue Lead Mining company has en- countered sulphide ore in the hig tunnel that is being run at the Blue Lead mine near Sheridan, in Penniogt-n county. For seventy-fivo feet the ore has been carrying copper better than a trace and it is the opinion of the management of the company that the main shoot of copper ore will he found before the tunnel has gone much far- ther, he veln matter has now been cross- cut considerably over 100 feet.

Brict reference s made to the renewed intel the subject lately manifested in France and Italy and to the apparatus now in use in conductiug the experiments, The professor then says in part “There 15 a marked difference of opinion as to the effectiveness of cannon firing with the manufacturers, and many grape growers on the one side and the scientists of America and Europe on the other. The former maintain that hallstorms can be prevented in the manner described, whilo the latter claim that the force exerted by the explosives {s infinitesimal as com- pared to the forces of nature that are ex- erted In hail formation and that experi- ments conducted by the adherents of the cannonadiug process themselves have not producc convincing results. “The number of thunderstorms from which bail is precipitated is but a small per cent of the actual number of thunder- storms. In most localities of the United | States a whole season sometimes pasmes without a fall of hail. In the grape-grow- | ing reglons of France and Italy there may bo greater hallstorm frequency, but it is still true that the number of hailstorms are few, as compared to the number of thunderstorms without hail ““The experimenters show a success when- ever they shoot at a thunderstorm that does not produce hail, although the chances are greatly in favor of there being no hail in the cloud. Again, they excuse the oc- currence of hatl in spite of a bombardment | by saylng that the cannon was not large cnough or the powder charge insufclent and declare that the hallstorm was far less severe than It would have been other. wise. How Is one to prove or disprove such statements? Mortals Are But Weaklings, “Scientists both in America and in Bu- rope declare that hailstorms cannot be prevented by the use of cannon and ex- plosives of even greater power than has Prot. Willis L. of agriculture, has icerning the matter and base their belief upon such knowledge of the forces of nature as sclence has re- vealed “Several thousand shooting statione have been established in Italy and France during the last two years, but reports received from them give no definite data In support of the success of the experiments, although there is no doubt that the cannonading is believed to be effectual by the farmers who do the work. Waves of irrational enthusi- | asm sometimes creep over a community, only to be regretted in subsequent years when calmer judgment has come to prevail. ence of our own country only a few years ago with the rainmakers and how firm was the belief of thousands of people in the sub-arid and arid reglons of the st that the use of powerful explosives would pro- duce rainfall. Thousands of dollars were expended in these experiments before the absurdity of the claim was demonstrated. Same Means to Opposite “It Is a fact worthy of remark that the hail shooters are now using practically the same methods to dissipate the clouds that the rainmakers used to produce them, Time and experiment probably will demonstrate that the prevention by such means is as Impracticable as rain production. There is no way of telling by the sight of an ap- | proaching cloud whether or not it is ac- | companled by hail. Therefore, If the cannon be used every thunderstorm would have to be bombarded, although it has been demon- strated that only one thunder cloud out of a great number contains hail. In other words, there would be a tremendous waste bombardments. “After examining all that has been pub- lished during the last two years on the subject of hail prevention, I have to repeat the opinfon heretofore expressed, that we have to do with a popular delusion and that efforts should be made to prevent its spread in this country. The great phenomena golng on In the atmosphere are on too large a scale for any man to control them The energy expended by nature in the pro- duction of a hailstorm, a tornado or a rain- exceeds the combined plosives in the world. It Is useless for man tomttempt to combat nature on this scale.” W. J. Shively, Batesville Banner Salve, says: “'I used and It salve 1 have ever used and I hav great many kinds.
