STEEL FROM BLACK SAND.
[Telegram.]
Since tho first experiments on a
working acale made by Dr. David T.
Day at the Mining building at the ex
position grounds, when steel was pro
duced from the magnititeof the black
sand in the electrical furnace,,much
interest I ihh been manifested. One
practical test is poled in the following
clipping from the Astonanj
“Judge J. Q A. Bowlby and Jarnos
Finlayson yesterday ground down a
piece of the new steel lately produced
from the metal in the black sands of
¡Clatsop, to tpst its quality. They re
duced it to a tine, feather e<lge, which
it held splendidly against all manner
of pttack. It is exceedingly satisfac
tory on such a crude trial, and this
promises much for it when subjected
io higher and better processes.”
■Similar trials in other hands have
phowp corresponding results. The
experimental stage is, of course, not
yet passed, and much remains to be
demonstrated. By one eastern steel
manufacturer two pointe were raised,
that uniform results had not yet fol
lowed ¿be use of the electrical fur-
naefrUhd that if blast furnaces were
jo be used, some process would have
jo be devised for aggregating for con
depsjng the particles of black sand,
to permit their being blown ont of
tha furnace. A method so new in
yaw material and in appliances for
production will have to run the
gauntlett of all kinds of hostile criti
cism- Another objection also raised
>VB3 that successful production of so
weighty a material as steel, and hd
prtjcle on which the margin of profit
per ton was so small, depended on
deDeity of population, and the near-
peua of point of production to the
locality of its use- -that the Pacific
ppast did not at present lend itself to
meeting either or both of
these requirements. The same au
thority suggested that as no large
putjay should be needed for establish
ing p plant on a scale adapted to
available markets here, it would be
wpj| tyoytlj jbp while of local capital
to make a sufficient investment for
[bat purpose.
Jn this connection it may be noted
that eastern mills are stated to be so
full pf orders that they hesitate to
undertake freeh orders for rails need
ed for delivery in less than 15 months
from the present time. It appears
probable that for Dragon railroads,
either commenced or in early pros
pect, considerably more than 100,000
tons of rails alone will be needed,
saying nothing of the largo require
ments for steel for structural pur
poses, Should not these possibilities
tor a new, important and permanent
industry receive attention without
delay.

They had so much fan at tbe shooting
match that everybody wants another and it
is tbe intention to have one during the
holidays.
Dr. Gianville was iu town Monday oo
business and whs gladly greeted by his
many friends. He ia busy installing a min
ing plant ou Sixes beach.
The shooting match at Port Orford
passed off without a growl of dissent. Fif
teen turkeys and half a beef were shot for.
At first they shot at the turkeys’ heads, but.
heads were knocked off so fast that the pro
gram was changed after M. T. Wright had
won three and George Forty two. There
was plenty of wild shooting, with an occa
sional good shot. In shooting for first
choice of a quarter of beef, Gene White
made tbe best string, 1% inches at 60 yards.
H.T. Stewart winning the other quarter.
The small boys shot for a turkey, which was
won by Master Hemal Forty, with George
Sutton a close second.
If eioctrio furnaces can be set up and
operated hs cheaply as Dr. Day says they
can, and steel, worth from 50 to 60 dollars
per ton be made, there ought to be fortures
in the beach sands of Curry County, which
contain more gold and platinum than other
beaches, besides unlimited quantities of
magnetic iron (black sand.) Moreover it
will be found that the deposits on tbe beach
are practically unlimited, as
fast as
worked out will be renewed by the new
bodies of sand thrown in and aoxmentrated
by the heavy ocean storms, just as our
beach gold mines have been renewed wher
ever the surf can act upon them. With the
coining of the railroad, the working of our
beach mines and the making of steel wiU
certainly assume gigantic proportions along
this ooast, and now is the tiipe to take time
by the forelock.—Tribune.

William», Oregou, Deo. 2. 1905.
Editor Baudon E ecobdkb .
Dear Sir:
A few morning» uno, Edison Bingaman of
WilliHm». went out on the foothills of Grey-
back mountain to hunt; his dog ran into a
fir thicket nnd immediately commenced to
make considerable of a racket. From the
action of the dog Ed reckoned a bear was in
tbe cover; presently tbedog came out, but
on being urged went back again, but soon
returned to his master, From the coarse
savage growling Ed thought sure it was a
baar, but on being nrned the dog went back
again with Ed dose behind with gun oookod
and at a present, prepared for business.
There was ferooious growling and tbe liuu-
ter stepped near a big log to investigate.
Just then a panther rose up behind him
with a terrible scream, and making a leap
over some bushes alighted across his gun
and arm, kuooking him down. The dog
came to the resaue and the panther left the
hunter and sprang for the dog, which he
missed and landed on a log. Ed promptly
recovered his feet and immediately pni in a
shot behind tho shoulders of tho beast who
made off screaming for the thick brush.
Hearing some growling a few feet from him.
tho hunter turned, aud seeing pari of anoth
er panther, let blaze with deadly effeot. It
proved to be a pauther cub Meantime tbe
dog was again making things interesting for
the old panther, but presently lefurnej to
his master and could not be induced to re
new the fight. The savage beast was claw
ing the brush and growling ferociously, nnd
without tho dog Ed did not consider it safe
to tackle the wounded panther alone in the
thick brush, so ho mndo for home, got two
more dogs, and accompanied by Iru Sparlen.
and Mi t Chapman, returned to tight it. out..
I hey f mid the old panther dead, She died
with H stick in li<,r mouth, firmly set in her
jaws, and in looking around they found
another cub. which they killed. The old
one weighed 82 pounds.
