Roderick few days ago tested 1000 pounds of the average rock in an arrastrar which yielded him S54 of clean gold. MT. Buck, who has an interest in the Empire, an eX- tension of the Ostrich, is making prepara- tions to put down hundred foot shaft. There are other parties taking up lode claims which prospect we'll on the surface. Near Arivaca ranch, eight miles from the Ostrich, Messrs. Hoag Bros. and the Jones Bros. have located some fine silver bear ing leads that prospect well in silver.
 Taking all in all, this mining region presents a lively cut look and is destined to yield it's share to the bullion products of the Territory, and make their respec- tive owners independent. New placer dig gings have been struck few miles east of this camp and reports of big things come in. Water is said to be plenty. Many parties are leaving for the new Fl Dorado. This will give an impetus to this section.
