Nrom the Phoebe Record.1
The shipments, from all the mills at
Phoebe, we presume, are just about the
same In amount as the product Of the
consolidated furnaces of this place.
Taking this as a basis, tho other fur
naces produce about the same amount
Of bullion as do the consolidated, thus
Eureka will double Phoebe In the pro-
duction Of values. TD-E w.
The above Is from the Eureka Sentf-
mel, commenting on Dur bullion ship
ment for July, which amounted to
$306, 469 43. The assumption that Eu-
reka ever shipped double that amount
In one month looks little "cheeky,"
In the absence Of figures to show it.
What the shipments of Eureka were
for the quarter ending June 30th, we
cannot now say, but we do know that
for the quarter ending March 3lst, our
shipments amounted to more than Eu-
reka and Austin combined-that of
Phoebe being nearly 800, 900 and Aus
tin and Eureka something over $780,
600. Show US your last quarterly
statement and we will "see 1t and 60
you at least 100000 better" Up
to the 18th of the present month $l4s,-
6SS 81 In bullion was shipped from Pr
oche. Can Eureka make as good o
showing for a like period?
GoLD D1scovERY.-On Thursday last
| no little stir was created In Phoebe BY
the discovery Of gold In an old loca-
ton south Of Gleason's boarding house.
The shaft Is about ten feet deep, ex-
poslnp a narrow seam Of red decom-
| posed quartz, which will assay In gold
over ESQ, 900 to the ton. MI. Egan,
Superintendent Of the Meadow Valley
Extension Company, washed out over
IS In pure gold from two hands full OF
dirt. The discovery was made by a
Mr.. Parker. Several tons OF this ore
can be obtained to a certainty. TO
what extent the ore will hold out no
one knows, but It should 1t prove to be
an extensive deposit equal In richness
to that In sight, all other "big things
will necessarily take a back seat
away back" II this discovery had
been made down In Arizona, and the
account of It had travelled 500 miles OF
more, and "growed" some OH the
way, q stampede for the locality would
at once be commenced. This discov'
cry Is not likely to turn many from
their course who are "pinted" Ari'
zonawards, though not one In a thou
sand who 60 there will stumble on to
anything half as good.
ANOTHER GoLp MINE.-A mine
called the MARY" owned by J. j,
and NJ. d. Halpin and Louis Felsen'
thai, which was located a short time
since, and thought to contain nothing
but silver up to within a day or two
ago, now proves to be a gold mine a!
we'll. The discovery mentioned else
where induced the owners Of this mine
to make tests Of its ores, and they wer'
agreeably surprised to find that 1t con
tained gold In paying quantities. We
were shown the result Of a washing
from decomposed quartz, which wal
worth about % so. The vein Is abou'
two and q half feet In width and II
thought to contain gold throughout
The Mary Is located but a short dis
lance north Of the location made BY
Parker and Egan. The owners Of thu
Mary are Justly elated over their goot
fortune and have put a force Of men Il
work developing the mine.

10th, l.. B. st. James was arrested fol
