Excerpt from The Journal of the Canadian Mining Institute: General Index, Together With Summaries of Papers Contained in Vols. I to X, Inclusive (1898-1907) The value of an alphabetical and analytical index to any work oi' more than ephemeral importance is too well recognized to need insistence. It frequently happens, however, that, no matter how carefully and conscientiously an index may be pre pared, the student or enquirer may be misled, at the cost of much valuable time, by a reference, which when traced to its source proves to be either of minor significance or relevant only in directly to the subject of enquiry. No system of indexing will provide entirely against this contingency; but the compiler be lieves he has devised, in the present volume, a method that will' at least minimize the difficulty and at the same time facilitate research. The work, it will be noted, is in two sections or parts, the first of which contains brief outlines or summaries of the several papers contributed to the Institute and published in Vols. I to X inclusive of the proceedings. In preparing these summaries, the main aim has been to subordinate them to the purposes and utility of the index, which they supplement. In the index itself, to which the second section of the work is devoted, the names of authors and the titles of papers are distinctively indicated by the employment in the one case of black - letter capitals and in the other of black-letter italics. In each instance, both under the author's name and the paper's title, a reference is given to the page and volume of the Transactions in which the contribution appeared; but, in addition, a reference will be found to a page, in the first section of this book, on which is printed a summary of the paper in question; and by reading this summary the enquirer will in most cases be able to decide whether it will repay him to carry his research further. Of the first ten volumes of the Journal of the Canadian Mining Institute, the first five are out of print and unobtainable. Complete or very nearly complete sets of the Transactions are to be found, however, in many institutions or public libraries, of which the following is a list.
