OUR BIG BONANZA

In order to satisfy the enquiries of the people who are all anxious to know more of the recent discoveries near Brad. shaw, We captured 0. c. Bean yesterday, on his return from there, and prevailed on him to give short account of what he knows about it. Here is his statement:
 PREscorT, A. T., July 8, 1875.
 EDITOR MINER As there seems to be some excitement respecting the discovery of the Peck mine, I propose, in few words, to give your readers, and my fellow. citizens of Arizona, some information regarding this latest and, I trust, best opening so far of our mineral estate in this section.
 On the evening of the l6th of June Mr. E. G. Peck discovered, on War Eagle creek, in the foothills, at the base of the Bradshaw mountains, three large lodges or lodes of quartzite, which carried mineral, and which had, probably, been passed over by thou sand p-ospectors before him, who regarded them as of no account, except so far as iron was concerned. In one of these lodges he found crevice of two feet in width which disclosed gray sulphide of silver and other mineral beneath the cropping and some of the ore being brought to Prescott, it has been pronounced by assayers and competent judges to be of the very highest grade of siver ore-as good as that taken out of the Eberhardt at White Pine.
 The mineral on these lodges has been trac- ed for nearly four thousand feet, and the in- dications are that these lodges form one large and valuable mine, at least on the discovery and first extension claims. have been on the ground and assisted in clearing the loca- ton for the dump and for sinking the shaft, and between two and three tons of ore was obtained in this little work, and that of the highest grade.
 lifted out, myself, chunks of pure gray sulphide of silver that would weigh from four to ten pounds, and that would yield at least eighty-four per cent of silver. The outlook is certainly magnificent, and we who have waited and watched and worked and hoped so long, and have been disappointed So often, may at last feel that we have the assu- rance of body of wealth in the Peck and 'Occident' mines which will help out the for tunate locators and the general community.
 Whoever may desire to visit the location of these mines will find them on War Eagle creek, about two and half miles north of Goodwin X McKinnon's camp on the War Eagle mine, in the Bradshaw mountains. Although we hope and believe that the three lodges, running parallel and within 300 feet of each other, will prove to be but one mine as we get below the surface, yet we don't knOW the .fact but leave everybody to form their own opinions of what may lay beneath the surface, and will glad to show our friends the ground and treat them to the best of bacon and beans.
 Very respectfully, C.C. BEAN.

The Ball at the Courthouse, on Monday night, was over average. Everybody seemed 10 be pleased, the music was frst-rate, and if some danced little out of time or misapprehended the figures, it only made more fun, and "every- thing went" We did not stay for supper but hear good account of the table. The "maefi cent Spirit" of the MINER office, who in at the death and remained until the gray dawn streaked the horizon is enthusiastic in praise of the ice-cream, for the hiding away of which he has wonderful capacity.

WHY IT DIDN'T RAIN.-Jimmy Gunnison, who keeps a lodging house, had his roof of the build ing on Tuesday night when it began to sprinkle. Jimmy went ont and prayed that it would not rain until his house was fixed, but stll it sprin- kled and threatened to pour down in cataracts. Jimmy became frightened, lost faith in the effi' cacy of prayer and finally got angry and shook his fist at the clouds, when they hurried away, white with fear, and there was no more rain until the roof was completed.

The Fragrant Limberger.

Some folks, says the Slate (lowa) Re-
gister, don't like the oder Of Limberger
cheese; but there arc people that can't
appreciate the flavor OF u we'll developed
LOlecat. One evening, not very long
since, Il gentleman had made his prepa-
rations for going TO prayer meeting
with his wife. Prior to STARTING he
came down town to his place OF business,
and while there. an acquaintance dis
covered that he was about to engage in
Wednesday evening devotion. Accord
ingly he put up a villainous job. Pro-
curing huge slice of the most fragrant
Limberger cheese to be had, he watched
his opportunity, and just as the gentle.
man stepped out OF the door TO go home
for his wife, slipped it in his pocket.
The parties repaired to the church and
were soon seated side by side In a COM
Portable pew near the stove. Soon the
cheese began TO grow loud. The sisters
turned their heads about and looked as
If Il kraut barrel had exploded. The dea-
cons elevated their noses and thought Of
the third plague in Egypt. The preacher
smelled a great smell, and the wife of
the unconscious odor. casket nudged her
spouce and inquired IL he didn't smell
something. MARIA, It's awful" he re-
sponded; at must be In the coal. The
more the assembly speculated the louder
the odor became, ana finally all hands
united in hurrying the proceedings to Q
close. Arrived at home, and while pre-
pairing 10 retire, the gentleman discov-
cred the cause OF the unpleasantness,
aud removed 1t on q couple OF chips.
