In the Alma mine, Amador County, the diae mond drill was staried at the 1000-foot level and the ledge was struck 105 feet from the shaft. A fourfoot ledge of high-grade ore was strucs last week at & depth of 265 feet in the Eagle King mine, near Grizzly Flats, EL Do- rado County. The Downing Mining Company of Visalia has bought a large interest in the Rademacher mine, Kern County. A crosscut has turned up & 20-foot ledge of good ore. P. A.

He bslieves that every miniog superintendent should know | just how it gous to sweat sll day and have | aching bones at the end of the shift. Our College of Mines has sent forth in the past many men who have achieyed great success at home and in other parts.of the world and some areamong the best known mining ex- perts of the world. Many more of its gradu- ates will achieve success and fame. The min- i ing developmentof the Pacific Coast has b\ui fairly begun, and men who combine natural | rough sc training, to which experience is added, will be in increas- ing demand. Just now mors men are newly to mining than ever before, a ma- preparai onanzas nex: these, ho e will sum- act scientific portance. y 0 prospes summer, It is not from & ever, that the capital mon skill whe of vital 1 ty urges this summer work on | | stance, by simply grinding and polishing minicg development, offeriug large rewards ! for the discovery of new gold fields, lending | capitas to aid the development of mines, etc. Now the Minister of Mines recommends that | classes be established in Sydney and other | places to instruct prospectors in mineralogy and sssaying in an elementary way to im- prove their chances of success. The British Columbia Gazette shows that 336 | mining companies were formed in that pro- | | vince last year, with a total eapitalization of | $345,000,000. | " Four Oakland men are averaging $3 aday per man from oid tailings on ground they have leased in El Dorago County. A rich strike of copper ore has been made at Iron Mountain. The Mountain Copper Com- pany now employs 900 men and handles 500 tons of ore dally.

The “Macroscopicil” examination of the wall rocks of ditferent metalliferous fissures and the ores or lode matters in them is of the greatest importance to the miner.

The following implements will be found sufficient for this simple mode of in- vestigation: First—A common magnifier, mounted in horn, that being lighter than metal. It should have three powers and be set in a spectacle frame with screens, so that the different powers can be easily changed. Second—A small bar magnet, and also & magnetic needle freely suspended or sup- ported. Third—A small unglazed porcelain streak plate. Fourth—A bottle of hyrochloric acia with s fine glass rod attached to the stopper. Fifth—A dressing hammer with the head about three inches long; one end with s face | halfan inch square and the other chisel- | The Government of New South Wales has | shaped. Sixth—A pocket micrometer, same as m ade by A. Sietz. Seventh—A piece of flat iron ten inches square and half inch thick. Eighth—A piece of thick glass, ten inches square, aud a few pounds of coarse and fine emery. Ninth—Scale of hardness, After many trisls I found the best ana easiest mode of determining the hardness was to have the minerals forming the ecale of hardness mounted something like a writing | diamond. Breax, for instance, the corundum, topaz, ete., into fragments, und after select- ing those with fine, sharp points proceed to mount them in the following manner: Take a small rubber pencil and extract the rubber from the end of it. Then with a small spirit lamp melt some lapidary’s cement into the vacant space; with & small pair of pliers take the iragments of minerals, heat one end of them and insert it 1nto the cement in the end of the pencil while the cement is warm: by wetting your finger you can mold it into any shape you please, and when cold, 1f | properly done, it hardens and answers just as well as if set in metal, with the advantage that you can remew it&l any jimein & few moments. In addition to the implements named a smail collection of the commoner types of for- eign rock should be procured and prepared with polisted sides after the manner Lefore described. . The specimens of igneous rock should consist of grauite, syenite, diorite, gabbro diabase, dolerite and basalt, and of small bottles with iragments of the different felaspars showing character and clea orthoclase (potash feldspar), aibite (soda), anorthite (lime), 'abra- dorite (lime sods); also small pieces of horn- blende and augite. Thetriclinic teldspar may be distinguished irom monoclinic, e. g., oligo- clase or Iabradorite from orthoclase by the presence of fine parallel striw along the surface of certain of the cieavage planes. Hornblende crystals bave generally a fibrous structure, by which they may often be recognized from | augite crystals. In the following table Ly Professor Bonney igneous rocks are classified | primarily according to their mineralogical | composition, and secondarily according to their intimate siructure.

Strange Pictures on Skins and Woeod in Miss Binckley’s Studio. Chicago the Only Other Place in the United States Where the Art Is Practiced. Miss Nellie Binckley, the artist, of this City, has for some time past been giving ber attention to etehing with fire and to leather carving, especially the former. Leather carving is done very little in this country. A Chicago papera short time ago had a long article setting forth thata leather-carver had lately arrived in Chi- cago from Spain, but that outside of that there were no carvers in leather in the United States, except two ladies in Cali- fornia. Miss Binckley’s studio on Sutter street shows a large amount of etchings by fire. The etchings are chiefly on wood and leather. She says that really the orizinal etchings here were done by tae Indians, as may be seen by an examination of the inner sides of the bearsihins, elkskins and hides ot other animals on which they bave drawn curious Indian figures with fire. The burning lines are traced by the pointed piece of sieel known as a cautery, which is kept red hot by the generation of hydrocarbon vapor in a small bottle. ‘*California furnishes a most attractive field for a tine etcher or professional, for there is such a fascinating variety of beau- tifur woods to choose from. Those most used are poplar, sycamore, white holly, redwood and madrone. The latter bas a tone admirable as a suggestion of flesh tint and is excellent for beads,” said the lady yesterday. “Leather is as much adapted for this decoration as wood and is almost as dur- able. A new leather has been prepared by a special process for fira etching. Iuis called velvet call and has an exqnisite velvety surface, something like suede or t is dyed in a variety of colors, usually gray, terra cotta and green. Sheepskin is tanned with the same velvety finish now and is much less expensive than the calf. Then there 1 leather carving. This has been done a great deal in Germany, bt it is considered more aistinctively { Mexican. It is entirely different from the ©oid Spanish and German stamped leather | and 1s luerally carved with sharp tools. | A Mexican has recently begun doing this { work in Chicago and O"Hara & Livermore intend to introuuce 1t here. ““In the older Mexican towns dark-eyed artisans work still at the leather, won- | drously cut and carved, and known to il the world as a remnantof the days { when every man was a cavalier, and his | saddle the proudest of his possessions. Now comes the etching of the leather, technically called pirogravure, growing under the hands that is doininant te- day—the race of new women. As tomy own work in fine etcting, my specialty is heads ana figures. It bores me to extinc- tion to do_conventional designs. I hate {todo anything which has to be exactly the same on each side. It is purely me- chanical. Any onecan doit. Itonly re- | quires care. It is ro particular credit jo | get 1t perfectand il wrone. “But to do a figure design well is some- | thing that intercsts one more, and istoa great or less extent an achievement. One must feel itenter into tbe spirit of the " aesign or it will be stiff and wooden. It takes a sure eye and a_steady band, and a sufficient knowiedge of anatomy (in figure work), to give the worker the power of assimilating the designs, and putting it forth again from his own brain without the necessity for constant reference to the design. “When one makesa long, flowing line, it is disastrous to glance aside at the copy. An instant’s pause :n the progress of your red hot point and_ a hole, or at least a period, appears, and the line is spoiled.” Among the etchings which Miss Binck- iey has is one of Cypress Point, near Mon- terey, with a view of the sea; figures of Indians and Chinese and of bears ana other wild animals.
