The Mystic Vision, Charles O. Lee Jun 1911

The Mystic Vision, Charles O. Lee

Graduate Thesis Collection

Pratt opens his work on The Psychology of Religious Beliefs by saying, "that if an atheistic inhabitent of Mars were to visit this planet, greater than the wonder of steam and electricity, would be the fact that we believe in a God whom we have never seen and cannot see". This universal belief in God is a striking thing and the question at once forces itself upon us, why do men believe as they do and what are the psychological bases underlying that belief?


Some Peculiarities Of Shelley's Rhythm., Ethel Allen Murphy May 1911

Some Peculiarities Of Shelley's Rhythm., Ethel Allen Murphy

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The most striking quality of Shelley's poetry meets our attention once, in the play of ever-changing emotion through his lines. When he called himself "A pard-like Spirit beautiful and swift," he characterized the spirit of his poetry, with its ever-shifting imagery, and its pulsing, leaping rhythms continually falling into new and unexpected adjustments of difficult stresses, but always resolving themselves into a wonderful coherency of thought and form which produces the effect of strange and beautiful music. He builds up large rhythm-forms in what we may call the phrasing of his lines, using the term in a musical sense, and …


The School Garden From An Educational View Point., Emilie Yunker May 1911

The School Garden From An Educational View Point., Emilie Yunker

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

"School gardens are not intended to create gardeners or farmers but to afford the growing boy or girl an opportunity for many aided developments." In the school garden the children are taught by one who can inspire them with a love not only for plants, but for everything else that has life and grows to take care of trees, lawns, flowers, vegetables and such things planted with their own hands. It is a place where the plants together with their friends and enemies have an intimate relation to the child personally; where the lessons are far more vital than anything …


Fluorspar Mining In Kentucky, Walter Coffran Richards Jan 1911

Fluorspar Mining In Kentucky, Walter Coffran Richards

Professional Degree Theses

"The mining of fluorite, or fluorspar in Western Kentucky is one of the chief mineral industries of that State. As the number of mines and prospects is very great, a thorough treatise on the geology, mines, and methods of this district would make a large volume. This thesis will deal, however, with only a small part of the district, in which the mine operated by the author is located. Before going into detail, it might be well to mention a few points relative to the fluorspar industry in general. To the average person, fluorspar seems to be unknown. In fact, …


Underground Records, Robert Hardy Bedford Jan 1911

Underground Records, Robert Hardy Bedford

Professional Degree Theses

"It may save confusion to now state that "Underground Records" is used in sense of information regarding labor, supplies, and output of the underground proper, in distinction from "Costs" - a term here used for results of the sum total of all records after they have passed through the hands of the book keeping-accounting staff. The essentials of underground records are more or less carefully collected by all mining companies of any importance, but are too often, before they have come under the eyes of the mine management in intelligible or suggestive form, obscured by the addition of a "witches …


Method Of Obtaining And Preserving Data On Churn Drill Holes, Ira Lee Wright Jan 1911

Method Of Obtaining And Preserving Data On Churn Drill Holes, Ira Lee Wright

Professional Degree Theses

"In prospecting for copper by means of churn drills it is absolutely essential that accurate methods of sampling be employed if any dependence is to be put upon the results. Of equal importance is the recording and preservation of data regarding each hole after results are obtained. This applies to such information as location and elevation of holes, depth, water level, geology etc as well as to the assays of the samples. Future underground development will be guided by information obtained from the drill holes and any incompleteness in the records will cause uncertainty in the development of the mine. …

A Study To Determine A Process For The Treatment Of An Amalgamation Tailing, Robert Bruce Mitchell, Edward William Engelmann Jan 1911

A Study To Determine A Process For The Treatment Of An Amalgamation Tailing, Robert Bruce Mitchell, Edward William Engelmann

Bachelors Theses

"The ore for this series of experiments is the tailing from the old ore-dressing mill at Missouri School of Mines. In undertaking the task of devising a cyanide scheme for this tailing we knew that we had no little amount of work before us, neither were we sure of success, for all attempts thus far to cyanide this tailing had failed"--page 2.


Sulpho - Telluride Ore, David Lawton Forrester, Harry W. L. Porth Jan 1911

Sulpho - Telluride Ore, David Lawton Forrester, Harry W. L. Porth

Bachelors Theses

"The problem considered in this work, is the determination of a suitable scheme for cyaniding a low grade Cripple Creek ore. For several years many attempts have been made to solve the metalurgical sic problem presented by such ores"--page 1.


Scheme For The Treatment Of Copper Smelter Flue Dust, John Perry Walker Jan 1911

Scheme For The Treatment Of Copper Smelter Flue Dust, John Perry Walker

Bachelors Theses

"In recent years, methods for improving the prevailing practice in treatment of flue dust have demanded the attention of those engaged in the copper and lead industries. Great advancement has been made in the more complete settling of the dust in large chambers and flues, and in some instances, more particularly in the case of lead smelters, in its extraction from the flue discharge of the furnaces by filtration through bags. Schemes for re-treating this recovered dust are, however, in a somewhat undeveloped state"--page 1.


Evidence Relative To The Effect Of Mechanical Mixing Of Charges In The Fire Assay, James Keller Beach Jan 1911

Evidence Relative To The Effect Of Mechanical Mixing Of Charges In The Fire Assay, James Keller Beach

Bachelors Theses

"While mixing has always been suggested in the text books, on assaying, yet it seems that experimental data as to the effect of lack of mixing, or insufficient mixing, is not available. This thesis was conducted in an effort to determine just what variation and irregularity in the fusion of gold and silver ore was caused by non-mixing; i. e., whether the fusion took place in the same length of time, whether the fusion was complete, whether the values were collected and, in general, just what irregularities were incurred"--Statement of the Problem, page 2.

A Summary Of The Theories Of The Origin Of The Lake Superior Copper Ores, With Evidences Pertaining Thereto, Eva Endurance Hirdler Jan 1911

A Summary Of The Theories Of The Origin Of The Lake Superior Copper Ores, With Evidences Pertaining Thereto, Eva Endurance Hirdler

Bachelors Theses

"In each of the foregoing theories we obtain sound reasoning in connection with many facts. Therefore a correlation of these facts ought to give us enough material to deduct a sound theory. The most plausible supposition seems to be that all metallic ores are derived ultimately from the interior of the earth, from a great metallographic province, when they are delivered by igneous eruptives near or at the surface"--Conclusion With Reasons, page 29.


Evidence Pertaining To The Origin And Deposition Of Ore Deposits, James Edward Mcgoughran Jan 1911

Evidence Pertaining To The Origin And Deposition Of Ore Deposits, James Edward Mcgoughran

Bachelors Theses

"In looking over the evidence grouped in the foregoing tables it is at once evident that by far the greater number of the ore deposits are associated with igneous rocks, and that they have resulted from deposition from not solution. It appears that, relatively, deposition by segregation from an igneous magma is of much less importance than deposition from solution, in the formation of ore bodies. However, segregation is the only explanation possible in accounting for some very important deposits, but they are very few in number. In distinguishing between deposits resulting from hot ascending meteoric solutions and those resulting …


Mine Map And Geology Of Saltpeter Cave, Milan Harrison Detweiler, Frank Edgar Townsend Jan 1911

Mine Map And Geology Of Saltpeter Cave, Milan Harrison Detweiler, Frank Edgar Townsend

Bachelors Theses

"The date of discovery of Saltpeter Cave is not known and there is no way of determining it. Numerous accounts are given of the cave by the oldest settlers in the neighborhood, some of which are both startling and interesting. for instance, it is reported that the soldiers of the Confederate army visited this cave for the purpose of securing guano from which to extract saltpeter for use in the manufacture of gunpowder. This may be the origin of its name"--Geology, Page 1.


A Comparative Test Of The Air Consumption Of Rock Drills, John Elmer Schultz, Christian R. Miller Jan 1911

A Comparative Test Of The Air Consumption Of Rock Drills, John Elmer Schultz, Christian R. Miller

Bachelors Theses

"The aim of this thesis is an attempt to determine the relative efficiency, of four standard types of rock drills, as to air consumption. The air consumption was based upon the cubic inch of rock drilled by each machine. The orifice method of measurement being utilized, in connection with the exhaust to determine the desired consumption"--page 1.


The Design Of A Sampling Mill To Treat A South East Missouri Lead Ore, Robert Nathaniel Copeland, Edwin Cook Mcfadden Jan 1911

The Design Of A Sampling Mill To Treat A South East Missouri Lead Ore, Robert Nathaniel Copeland, Edwin Cook Mcfadden

Bachelors Theses

"The purpose of the work that was undertaken in preparing this thesis was to provide plans and specifications for a sampling mill to be erected by the St. Louis Smelting and Refining Co. at their plant near St. Francois, Mo... It was intended at the outset to design the plant completely and to provide full working drawings and specifications for all parts of the mill. On account of the lack of time, however, it has been found necessary to somewhat reduce the amount of work. As a result only general plans and specifications with a few of the more important …


Ratio Of The Thermal And Electrical Conductivities For Gas Carbon, Oscar Alan Randolph Jan 1911

Ratio Of The Thermal And Electrical Conductivities For Gas Carbon, Oscar Alan Randolph

Bachelors Theses

"The method of F. Kohlrausch for the determination of the ratio of the heat conductivity upside down gamma , to the electrical conductivity k of a substance is of practical value as well as of theoretical interest. Of practical value because there may be obtained from it - with much great ease than by direct methods - the heat conductivity which has immediate applications, not only to the design and construction of furnaces, but to various other matters of such import; of theoretical interest to the physicist, because of the Wiedmann-Franz and its consequent relation to the electron theory; to …


Friction Of Air In Small Pipes And Fittings, Bejamin H. Cody, Ernest J. Allen Jan 1911

Friction Of Air In Small Pipes And Fittings, Bejamin H. Cody, Ernest J. Allen

Bachelors Theses

"The work of Park and Peterson during 1909-10 at the Missouri School of Mines revealed the fact that more data are needed concerning the loss of pressure due to elbows and other fittings of pipes under three inches in size. Accordingly, we decided to undertake the continuation of their work as a thesis. The apparatus used was practically the same as used in the previous thesis"--page 1.


A Comparison Of The Silver Losses Due To Cupellation Using Different Kinds Of Cupels, James A. Taggart, Anton Frederick Karte Jan 1911

A Comparison Of The Silver Losses Due To Cupellation Using Different Kinds Of Cupels, James A. Taggart, Anton Frederick Karte

Bachelors Theses

"In this thesis our object has been to ascertain the silver losses in cupellation with different kinds of cupel materials, thereby determining the efficiency of the various materials used for making cupels. When beginning this work we hardly expected to find such differences in behavior of the various cupels used. However we refer the reader to our curves to see what really happened"--page 2.
