THEANACONDA STANDARD: SUNDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER i, 1891. WORKSLKEJ CHARM Stlekoej'sletbod of Tvitig Bittt's^Smoki to Good Accobdl MANUFACTUREOF SULPHUR CltiaeneDseo'y Intaraetad in the^Process-Profaeaor Btickney^Bellevas Thar* Ara Mil^^lions in it. rvTTK.Oct 31.^Cbsrles W. Stiekney.^milling engineer at tba Parrot, (ara a^demonstration of hu process of Retting^rid of tfce imoke to an interested group^nf listeners at the elljr ball this evening.^Mr. stlcknty bad triib him a pair of little^charcoal fires and ^ minature apparatus.^HU proceu limply tree tbe depositing of^the eulpbur In s solid form instead of the^g iseous form which Use b -en so famiiisr^to residents of Huttr, and this is accom^^plished through tbe action of sulphate of^alumina, which lbs professor lied with^h in. The professor's test was on too^smsll a seals to tell much, but li s^process as be explained It, mae'e a reiy^.arorable impression on his hearers and^nil of them would like to see it carrieil^farther. 1bare been working on this thins for^two years,^ said tbe professor, ^chiefly as^to the cheapness with which it could be^done. Because unlets the smoke csn be gottenrid of cheaply, it is no use in try^ing to sbato the amokr, and unlesa we^can do it cheaply we will gain the oppo^^sition of the smelter raeu. I don't say^that my way is tbe only wsy of doing^this, but It is tbe cheapest and tho only^effectual way and will pay tbe smelter^companies to take hold of it. The pro^^cess is depositing tbe sulphur in a solid^te rm instead of a gaseous form. Some^fail to tell what tbey do witb tbe sulphur.^They say they burn it, but tbey can't^burn it up in the sense of getting entirely^rid of it. A man getting rid of smoke^must show what he does witb tbe^sulphur. There are only four gas^eous forms known of sulphur. Tbey are^8 which vaporises at about 6C0 dsgreea,^S02, which is gaseous at any ordinary^temperature, hut at 18 degrees Fahrenheit^is liquid; H2SS whirlt is gaseous ut all^temperature, and t^2 which is liquid^ordinarily, but gaseous at about 80 de^^grees. L'S2 would, if formed, conic^^lown in a liquid form aa soon ^^ it^cooled. But wo hare to deal witb S()2.^The cheapest thing, except mine, to get^rid cf the sulphur is burnt lime. But 32^pounds of sulphur would n quire Mi^pounds of burnt lime, which costs $7^per ton. The Parrot turna out about 40^tons of sulphur per day, so to get rid of^it would require $420 per day in burnt^lime. The smelter men, of course, would^kick at that. The way I roast It, J deposit^me sulphur in a solid form. At a cer^^tain temperature wbere all constituents^will combine. Those forms ore preferred^which are moat volatile,. If we let air and^steam into the ore together, the result is^SU2 which you are familiar witb. My^process is to solidify the sulphur by the^introduction of sulphate of aiumnia. and^1 have shown you by the experiment to^^night that this is done. In tbe ordinary^p ^ cess of roasting ores In the air S02 is^. urnel off, which is tbe gas you complain^of. But suppose I don't roast in the a'r;^suppose we use a brick furnace, air tight,^for our roasting. Then the air don't get^in and we don't form that gas. We form^instead, 4H2S. Tb^ n into thla we in^^troduce the sulphate of alumina which^deposits It. How are we to get til9 sulphate^of alum na^ It is made by the action cf sulphuricacid on clay. Nothing U so^cbesp here as sulphuric acid aud clay,^and put together they form tbe .ulphate^of alumina. The clay can be laid down^here at 13 per ton. Myplan.^ continued Mr. Stiekney,^^is to form a stock company.; Let all tbe^people go in at f 5 or f 10 each. With the^capital raised we can substitute our fur^^naces for those now in use at the smelt-^era on tbe consideration of our having^the sulptur wetmake. Sulphur sells at an^an average of 130 per ton.There is a great^market for it since the manufacture of^nitro glycerine and dynamite began.^Much of tbe sulphur and brimstone now^c^ mes from Sicily. Entering the field we^csn put the price of sulphur down to 1.0^per ton. Freigut to New York will ho^about 110 per ton. This leaves us 110 on^each ton. Tbe Parrot ores turn out about^40 tons per day, and the smelters of the^camp all together turn out about 200 tons^per day. In 300 days for tbe year the re^^sult would be GJ.000 tons, or 1000,000 per^year for our sulphur. 1 am certain there^is money in it. Mr.Stiekney explained bit process^more at length in answer to many ques^^tions. There was a general desire to see^tbe experiment tried on a more extensive^scale, and k!r. Siteknt y said that for Itl'O^he could build a f ur.iace on a small scale,^but one that would show the process so^clearly to alt who saw it. that the people,^oue and all, would want to take shares in^the concern. Those present were greatly^interested in Mr. Mickney's explanation. HALLOWEENSPORTS. Teeth*of tbe Ciiy lelebrat* la TfW-^Hsaored style. Bl'iTE,Oct. 31.^The young people in^Butte are celebrating Halloween tbit^evening, and their observance of the day^is about the same at that of children all^over tbe world. Halloweenhas always been an occasion^for certain popular usages ami conceits,^such at the performance of spells by^young people to discover their future^partners in life and certain fireside revel^^ries, such at cracking nutt and ducking^into wattr for upples, etc. It is thought^to be a night wh^ n wiicbet^and other mitchicf-making beings^are abroad upon their baneful^errands; particularly the furies era said^to bold a grand anniversary. In towns^where seminaries and olloget are situ^^ated the students practice their praukt^and deviltries upon the long suffering in^^habitants in a mi ki remarkable manner,^The doctor usually changes signs witb^tho undertaker, and the gates of many^rctidencea are untwung and piled^together on tome corner, leaving the^^ rainy householder to select tho one be^believes to be bit. It is on this occasion^that the statue of John Harvard in ( anv^bridge usually receives its annual adorn^ment of a plug hat, coat and trousers. Inthis city Halloween was celebrated^alter tbe time-honored custom. A mini^her of children's parties were given and^the utual festivities were indulged in. ClaimedBy Death.

A few minutrs before tbe end^came he asked, as a last favor, for a drink^of whiskey. He bad been a loitering^wreck for a year or more, and a frtqtient^inmate of the poor bouse.

Travelingla a I*rair^ feboeeer^AtswM^ta Bid* mm the t art.^Ei'TTE. Oct. 31.^In these days when^distance it annihilated b/ tbe application^of steam, thsnks to tbe crraiioaa of^man's invent.ve geniut, it setm^ like^stepping back into tbe region of antiquity^to see the lumbering and heavy prairie^wagon, drawn by two aleepy mules,^traversing a long stretch of country. As^a mrant of loci motion, even in far-off^Montana, the rai read has supplanted in^long journeys lbs run vat-coven d ship^of the plaint which afforded transporta^^tion to to many pioneers who in^tbe early days of tbl* slate fol^^lowed the curse of the empire^wettwar.l. But the innovations Inciden^^tal to modem tic veloprecnt are notaiwtv t^taken kindly to by soma people; they are^distrustful of anything whose mechanism^is beyond their contracted horiton of un^^derstanding. An illustration of this ru-^rieut phase In the human character was^seen this afternoon in iSouth liutte. A^largo wagon, fashioned after tbo ct n^en^tiotial prairie acnooners, loomed up in^tbe vicinity or the street car roundhouse .^It was drawn slowly along by a pair of^strong but slow m ivingmillet. When the^akwar.l affair arr.vrd at the watering^trough near the corn -r of Ar I ^tia aud^Front ttrectt a halt was made. There^was a ^oung man on the srat who cracked^a long bull whip in the air us u uivi r ion^while tbe mulct were drinking. He^bore a striking rrtemblanro to the^popular conception of the average Pike^county product. On being accosted, hit^rich vernacular gave evidence of bit pro^^vincial origin, and tcrae of the words be^used during his conversation with the re^^porter were beyond the ken of any one^unfamiliar witu the vocabulary of that^aesthetic region ill Western Missouri.^Presently a woman alighted from tbe^back end of the wagon, followed by two^small children, a boy and a girl. Her^movementa weru hardly the eni!^odiment^of Delsarten grace at the proccejed to^adjuat tome part of the top covering of^the wagon, aim in order to reach the spot^was obliged to stand on the top of tbe^wheel. This she did with tbe skill of an^acrobat, and alter a rigorous pulling and^hauling, aoj'iated the defective abet^^ter to ti.cir perepetic home. A^low words as to the ol j -ct ot^their journey were bos titled, and in^reply the bead of this nomadic house^^hold related a somewhat remarkable^story. She taid that her husband bad^died about a year ago in Matulan, N. !^.,^where bo owned a largo wheat ranch.^Since his Heath she had tried to till tbo^many uteres of the ranch hut the work^was too heavy for her. Ab ut six months^ago the received a letter Irom a brother,^who lived in tbo Palouse country in^Washington, urging her to soil her ranch^in Dakota and come and lire with him.^Tina ahe decided to do and lorthwilb sold^everything excepting the wagon and^mules. On Sept. 23 the rosoiu'.e woman^and her family set out on tbe journey to^their new home. The sale ot ranch and^petainal effecit netted the woman quite^a sum, or at least a sufficient amount to^cover the cost of railroad fares aud quits^a little besides. But neither tbe nor her^family had ever ridden in a railroad train^and they regarded such an institution^witb feelings of superstitious fear. Their^journey bad been as comfortable at that^Kind of travelling would allow; and^neither highwaymen nor Indians had at^^tempted to do them any injury. Tbe^family ex peci to reach their dettination^in about two weeks. INVALIDS Gainrapidly In health and strength by tba^use cf Ajer't Barsaparllla.
