RECOVERING GOLD
FROM MILL FLOOR
A crew of men is busily engaged at
the present time converting the old
Sheep creek quartz mill into an exper
imental station for the Alaska-Gas
tineau Mining Company's use. It is
a well known fact that much of the
ore milled in this old plant was very
rich. This being the case the floor
would naturally carry, as most quartz
mills do, considerable value in gold
that has ben deposited in fine parti
cles through the operation of the
plant.
That there can be no needless loss
of such valuable metal the floor is
being burned in the furnace of the
old plant and the ashes are to be put
through a process that will enable the
recovery of the gold. Such instances
are not uncommon. In nearly every
placer camp the old sluice boxes are
known to yield liberally when re
duced to ashes.
COURT NOTES.
The trial of Joe Webber could not
proceed yesterday morning for the
reason that the defendant was not in
court. It being shown that Webber
was unable to reach Juneau on ac

[OLDEST NEWSPAPER QUITS
The president of the Chinese Re
public, Yuan Schi Kai. recently sup
pressed the newspaper King-Bon,
which undoubtedly was the oldest '
newspaper in the world. . For 1,500 ?
years it has reported the more im
portant news not only of China, but
also of foreign countries. At a time
when the art of printing and journal- ?
ism was as yet unknown in Europe,
the Chinese Gong-Chung invented a
means for making types from lead
and silver, and in the year 400 A. D.,
the paper King-Boa was printed, and '
has since been issued regularly until '
recently. The first edition was print- '
ed on ten sheets of yellow silk, neatly
tied together and was thus sent to all
the highest officials in the Chinese Em
pire.
