Golden Star Mine.

Wm. B. HellIngs arrived from San Francisco during the early part of the week prepared to work his Cave Creek mines on an extensive scale. He in forms us that there is not a single share of stock of the Golden Star Mining Company sold in San Francisco, but that all his aid has been derived from Philadelphia capitalists. It is his in tention 10 pay small but continuous dividends and states that there is plen- ty of Eastern capital which will be invested in Arizona when they find they can receive a sure and permanent interest for their money. There is at present 50,000 tons of ore in sight in the Coded Star mine that will work $20 a ton. Teams have been sent to Prescott for the lumber which is sup piled by Geo. W. Curtis. Mir. Hellings has gone out to the mine to start men to grading for the mill after which he will go to Yuma to see the machinery loaded on teams furnished by Messrs. Goldman of Phenix and Neahr of Yuma. The whistle will be blown on the 4th of July. Although the mill is with but ten stamps to com mence operations with, but twenty additional ones will be added inside of ninety days.-Salt River Herald.

Golden Star Mine.

The splendid ten stamp gold mill built for the Golden Star mine, Arizona, by Messrs. Berry & Place will be ship ped in a few days. MT. W. B. Hellings, the owner of the mine, has returned from the east having secured the nec- essary capital to put everything in working order, and with his we'll known business energies will push the great mine forward into the list of dividend paying properties. The nec- essary work at the mine is in progress to have the works in active operation in a very short time after the arrival of the machinery. MT. Hellings proposes to work the Golden Star for legitimate profit, and not for a stock operation, there being no shares offered for sale. From the many sources that we have received favorable news and reports of the mine, we have every reason to congratulate MT Hellings as the owner of bonanza and hope the example he has set of working the mine for its great yield of gold, instead selling stock to be assessed, will be followed by others Despite all the obstacles to be overcome, Arizona has many mines of great merit and unquestiona- ble richness, and the Golden Star promises to equal anything on tbis coast.-San Francisco Stock Report

A Mine of Pure Native Silver.

We interviewed MT Golan this morn ing and ascertained that they have found a new silver mining camp, be tween 30 and 40 miles south east from old Camp Reno, in the Sierra Ancha Mountains, that there are some fifteen men in the camp, which is situated near the head of creek called Cherry Creek.
 Messrs. Golan and May found a large dyke capped over with iron, and about twenty feet from it, and running parallel with it, stringer which showed chlorides and considerable horn silver. They began to open ii and found the rock very much decom- posed on top and quite rich. They took out perhaps ton or ton and a half which they considered worth three or four thousand dollars to the ton before the rock began to harden, but al the depth of few feet the ledge or seam became solid, the carbonates and chlorides gave out and bright native silver made its appearance. At one point it was four inches in thickness, wedge shaped, with the big end up. They took out the most of what they could find of this character and brought it in as we have stated.
 Twelve hundred redwood telegraph poles have been shipped from San Francisco to Yuma, and General Wilcox will furnish transportation to deliver them along the lines in Arizona.

THE latest developments regarding the Tilton- Beecher scandal, are very favorable to Beecher, and it is said they contain enough to show an adroit- ly and deliberately planned conspiracy between Hilton, Moulton and the Wood hull to ruin Beecher. Beecher's law yers have examined a great many let ters which passed between the cons pirators, and say that they form con elusive evidence O. such an infamous conspiracy. James B. Mix, who has had possession of the letters, IS well known by his long employment on the New York Times and New York Fri bune. The letters came into his pos session by reason of his position as confidential secretary to Victoria Woodruff for seven years. Had Beech CT not been a prominent clergyman, he never would have been believed guilty on the testimony heretofore presented, although he had as all men do 10 a greater or less degree, made himself ridiculous in associa ion with women.
