Modern Cyanide Practice, Harvey Edson Smith Jan 1910

Modern Cyanide Practice, Harvey Edson Smith

Bachelors Theses

"It is noticable sic that about all of the recent improvements in cyanide practise sic have been along mechanical rather than chemical lines. the use of oxidizers such as air, ozone, sodium peroxide, etc., the use of the salts of lead, and even the addition of a coating of lead to the zinc shavings in the extractor boxes were all recommended when the process was first advocated but sometimes for different reasons. In the early days of the process the addition of hypochlorites, alkaline persulphates, and the use of mercuric cyanide was also investigated but has not proven satisfactory owing …

A Swedish Population Of Worcester: A Study In Social Survey, Karl J. Karlson Jan 1910

A Swedish Population Of Worcester: A Study In Social Survey, Karl J. Karlson

Historical Dissertations & Theses

This paper is not going to be an historical sketch of the growth and development of the population, but instead a description of the status quo of an industrial, peace-loving, and law-abiding Swedish settlement. The material for this thesis has been gathered from statistics of churches and societies, in personal interviews with prominent men who has been closely associated with the Swedish people for a great many years, and from personal observation and investigation. It is needless to say, I think, that I shall present the facts as I have found them and be as impartial as anybody possibly can.

Stress Of Romance Words In Chaucer's Prologue To The Knight's Tale., Helen S. Ward

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The effect of the Norman-French Conquest on the vocabulary of the English language was profound. Prior to the Twelfth Century the language contained but few word forms foreign to the Old English. The vocabulary of the Eleventh Century contained about thirty words of French origin and these must have come into the language previous to the conquest.

Bacteria In Relation To Every Day Life., Inga Werness May 1909

Bacteria In Relation To Every Day Life., Inga Werness

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

It is to be noticed that if there be any marshy places, certain animals breed there, which are invisible to the eye and yet getting into the system through the mouth and nostrils cause serious disorders." This quaint observation is taken from a manuscript written over two thousand years ago, showing that bacteria even if not seen, were living and active. Latin writers of about the same time recorded a relation between insects and malaria which has but lately been proved and explained. The infectious character of leprosy has long been recognized, since the ancient Hebrews caused the isolation of …

The Early Missionary Work Of The French Jesuits In North America., Edward Thomas Poulson May 1909

The Early Missionary Work Of The French Jesuits In North America., Edward Thomas Poulson

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

There are perhaps but few passages in history that are more striking than those which tell of heroic efforts of the early French Jesuits to convert the Indians of North America. Many of these efforts are full of dramatic and philosophic interest, and they also bear strongly upon the political destinies of America. While the small young colonies of England still clung feebly to the shores of the Atlantic, events, almost wholly unknown to them, that would eventually have great bearing upon their future, were in progress in the very heart of the continent, the main participants being the French …

A Method Of Obtaining Lead Concentrates From The Slimes Of The St. Joseph Lead Mill, Lewis Alfred Delano Jan 1909

A Method Of Obtaining Lead Concentrates From The Slimes Of The St. Joseph Lead Mill, Lewis Alfred Delano

Professional Degree Theses

"In the concentrating of lead ores, the water used in the mills carries the tailings from the jigs and tables to chatt tanks. Here the chatts and sands settle while the greater part of the water overflows and enters a sluice or slimes branch to the settling ponds. This overflow water carries with it a great deal of float lead. It is impossible to catch this lead in the mill on moving machinery without using too much power and mill space to effect a profitable saving. Ninety percent of this float will pass through a 140 mesh sieve. there will …
