IV Ulako in J 803, who found platinum nntJ ii'l dosmluin to the extent of 10 to 30 per cent of tho gold. Ills expe rience showed that the farther north he went on tho California and Ore gon coast the greater proportion o( platinum to gold. Subsequent in vestigation showed this to bo true an far north us Coos county, but It Is not true farther north. In fact, the Alaskan coast hns so far proved barren In platinum; but I Hake's statement was accepted as the rule, with tho result much fruitiest ex ploration for platinum wus made north nt Coos county. In 1X73 Prof, ft, Hi) lima n made an examination of tho heavy residual sands obtained In placer mining In Butte county, Cal., and showed them to contain: Chro mlte, gold platinum, lridosmium ( more abundant than platinum) zir con, magnetite, llmonlle, rutlle, gar itet and epldotn. He also mentioned diamonds, topaz and pyrllo. In 1894, J. A. Kdman first suggested the use of percussion tables for separating gold and platinum from black, sands: he also ,Ravo a good description or the minentlology ofVlhcso sands. Since the tlmo of these pioneer Investigations tho black sands have been a fruitful field and experimen tation for a method Vhtch would economically extract the gold and tho platinum ami especially has this been true since Congress authorized t ho gcologica l survey to Invest Igate the black sands of the United Slates (Act of 1005) to determine- new I sources of platinum production.

(A. P.) Tho state of Ten nessee tuade a formal motion at the triui of John T. Scopes today to excludo testimony of scientists from tho trial of (he case. William Jennings Brynn closed the argument for the state, In part, as follows: "If the children of today believe some of the things taught In the schools, they are taught to scoff- at the religion of their fathers. "No person has tho right to say that they shall rob tho children of their faith In Ood and send them to their parents Infldolr.." The court nsked Mr. Bryan if he thought evolution involved tho ciues tion of tho virgin birth of Christ. . "I am perfectly willing to answer your question," said Mr. Bryan, "but I do not think evolution deserves to bo called a theory, It is an hypothe sis." "Evolutionary theory has failed and today thero is not a scientist who has traced one species to an other and yet they call us ignora muses and bigots hocauso we won't throw away, our Bibles." , ' "Not only have they no truth but they cannot find the. beginning. "Christian" evolutionists said that God was back there somewhere, but they do not say where he was. "Evolution that, begins with noth ing nnd ends no where," was a de scription Mr. Bryan used'. "And yet. they would undermine tho faith of these little children In that God who stands back of everything," he said. "Jf the theory is that -God did not create th'- cell, then.it could not be reconciled with tho Bible, could i ?" Judge Itaulston asked Mr. Bryan.
