Mr. C. T. Sykes on Thursday, sent a team with windlaSs end necessary tools and men to sink shaft cn inc San Navior mIne of which mine frequent mention has been made ia THE CrTI ZEN. It is his intention to at once pur labor enough on IL to enable him to pretty correctly ascertain its true worth and take some of the ore tn San Fran. cisco for careful working tests.
 D. T. Harshaw and J. ". Davis have been in from the Trench and Alta mines and Jeff on Thusday with lor of supplies. The Alta belongs tc Messrs. D. T. Harshaw. s. Hughc, and Mr. Long. It's regarded an ex- celient mine with abundance of ore By smelung in a crude way, Sl20 per lon has been saved, but the assays run away up above this amount. By il costs near $50 per ton a, heretofore done, but it Is intended to work It by lixiviaIon by which it is believed more silver can be saved and at aa expense of only Sl5 per lon. The force oI labor is soon to be increased.
 Temporarily, work has stopped on the Trench, Thomas Gardner having taken tue eagine into the mountains 10 Use awhile in a sawmill to make lumber.
 William Zeckencorf had news from the Yellow Jacket mine and Ostrich mill on Wednesday. The ore contin. ueS to average up well Tn value and one lot taken ont lately was COS cred with free gold. The teams keep haul. ing to the mill and the mill is working away and a partial cleanup indicated good pay. A complete cleanup will take place in a day or two. Quite a settlement is growing up about the null, the boarding house kept by MT. Flood having thirty-five boarders. Zeckendorf Bros. this week received something over tif'y ounces gold dust from tine Santa Rita placers.

Els.o..a., Excursion to the Desert

Californians, or but few of them, have ever known what magnificent desert they possess in that of the Colo
 rado. They have in many instances even diSowued it and located it in Ari- zona. They have been ready enough to boast of all their superior posses sIons, save their superior desert It is now hoped, since it can be visited and examined 5y palace railway cars, they will manfully acknowledge the pos session. Even now they are begin ming 10 visit it, and perhaps we may soon read urgent appeals to the public to regard the Colorado Desert an Ob- ject not to be overloOGed by tourists. This hope is awakened by the editorial crowd which ventured out on that de cidedly interesting desert, in palace cars under direction of that chief of excur- sion managers, Ed. Curliss, on Mch. 9. The party consisted of James O'Meara of the Examiner; Gen. John McComb and John McComb jr., of the Ala; J.. NJ. Bassett of the Call; R. Hawxthurst of the Home Journal; J. N Higgins of the Call; II.

Upon inquiry of parties from the various valleys in this and Pinal com ties, we learn that the prospects for abundant crops were never brighter un- less a late frost or some entirely uneX- pccted blight comes.

The entire winter has been very mild compared with ;he winters here generally, and especially were February ani most of March mild with fine showers Of rain.

Shooting Of ,. VI. Lockhart.

In this case, an inquest was held at Camp Grant on March 25, by Niles L Wood, acting coroner. Several wit Inesses were examined and about forty pages of written testimony is returned t0 the district court with the finding of the jury. The jury was composed of
 D. II. Smith, foreman, J. F. Wood, NJ
 Mcdowell, George E. Teague. II. F. Smith, J L. Hunt, B. E. Norton. Wm.
 Wool and w D. Gaby. Jury found the fatal shooting was done at Point of Mountain station on March 20 by Ed ward J. Bailey, Sixth Cavalry. and Lockhart died al Camp Grant on March g. Jury do not say that the shooting was or was not unsuitable. The tes- timUny leaves ihIs question in doubt, or rather readers of it would be differ ently impressed accordingly as they re- rarded the credibiliiy of witnesses. There is not doubt but had all parties been sober, the shooting would not have occurred, for Sergeant Bailey testlfics that deceased and himself had pre- viouSly been friends.
 On the 9th instant, warrants were issued for the arrest of Lieut.. Benja- min H. Chcever, Sergt Fred. Baker, Corp. F. ?. Agnew and F. J. Bailey, all of the Sixth Cavalry, they being charged with the killing or as accessor- ies to the killing of Lockhart. Con stable I. E.
