C. Clark, and will be demonstrated Mon day afternoon at the Garfield used oar lot on North Riverside, at 2 o'clock. It Is an amalgamating pan which saves the fine gold, separates It from the pulp, discharges the pulp, and eliminates the concen trates, which are also saved. The pan Is operated by a small half-horsepower motor and will care for 35 tons of tailings a day. It makes 100 revolutions a minute; each shake making a breadth of 10 Inches. It works on the same principle de vised by early miners in their pan ning of gold, the engine this time doing all the work. The tailings are placed in the pan, which Is. 36 Inches In diameter, from the outside. 'The light material goes out through the center opening and the quarts' stays In the pan; always In the outer edge. The concentrates are poured out the faucets opened In the sides of the pan. A special advantage of the pan Is that lt saves the fine gold, Mr. Clark, who has mined for 25 years, stated yesterday. The pan to be demon strated Is 80 Inches In diameter, but one fid Inches In size, which will care for 50 tons of tailings a day, is also being made at the Trowbridge Iron works. The machines will b sold by Mr. Clark, according to the plan, and If they meet with the popularity an ticipated their manufacture will em ploy several men.
