A New Concentrator.

George Gates returned to Jackson Wednesday night after an absence of six months, during which time he has been in San Francisco perfecting a new concentrator. The new'machino bids fair to out-class all present contrivances for the work for which it is designed. Mr. Gates is an authority on the sulphurets question, and the untiring efforts put forth by him in this direction deserve reward. Owing to the superiority of the sulphurets of that district_the first plant equipped with the new machines will be built at Salt Lake, Utah. Mr. Gates brought with him the model of the invention, which is designed to produce the machine motion. At the National Hotel he exhibited it to a few of his admiring friends. It is indeed unique and apparently complete in every particular. He was accompanied to Jackson by his son.
