TIP-TOP.
What was Seen There by a
 Herald Reporter.

It is the intention of the HERALD to place before Its readers, a dcscrip- ton of the principal mines now be ing worked in Arizona, and for this purpose sent one of it's reporters to the mines of the Tip-Top Mining Company These mines aIc situated about fifty miles in a northeasterly direction from Phenix. They lie in the Bradshaw range of mountains in
 Yavapai county. The principal m inc and the one HOW being worked i,, the TIp-Top. and is considered by mining men, q true Assure vein. Near the surface the ledge was very irregular and broken, but as depth is attained, it's formation is more perfect, and less waste dirt is excavaied. For the purpose of full development, four tunnels have been run to intercept the lode and to work the mine to d
 better advantage. At the time of our visit, Tunnel No. was in 550 feet; No. 3, SG0 feet and Tunnel No f, $50 feet. The lower tunnel will strike the ledge at depth of 400 feet from the surface, and only lacks some 30 feet to accomplish it. l. is exDected that when the tunnel reaches the ore vein, splendid developments will be  shown, as the vein is larger and rich CT below where they are now work ing. At the present time there are 120 men working in the mine, and the force will be increased so soon as the stopes are ready. Throu gh the kindness of Mir. Brown, the efficient forman, we were shown through the mine, and was surprised at the amount and quality of the ore in sight. He informed us that ore under S2O0 per ton. could not be worked with profit on account of the expense of transportation, the ore being packed on mules distance or eight miles to the mlll, ana mat there were at pres ent over 200 tons of ore that would yield handsome profit if the mill were near the mine. The expense of hauling the ore, wood and salt IS enormous, and prevents the company from declaring dividends Iii how ever, the intention of the company to remove the mill from it's present loca- tion as soon as they shall have found sufficient water for their purposes. At present the mill is idle for the want of salt for reduction purposes, but ex pect to resume again in few days
 There is quite q town at the mine, ! and business is flourishing. The i bullion is shipped to San Francisco by way of Phoenix.

On the ma;'s of our village there is lai1 out plot of land for public use, and dcnominated as a plaza, but to the visiting stranger, it resembles q waste or the camping out place for the Indians. With the irrigation fa- cilities that we have, few hundred dollars iudIciously expended. would transform it to beautiful park, where the old and the young and the stranger in our midst, could enjoy its advantages, and would be the mean in many cases of causing people to settle Eere. In all cities where they have their parks beautified, there is always a goodly number of people enjoying its beauties, and there Is not one in the whole country that can he improved at so little expense as that in PhGniX. Here we have a good well ill the center of the plaza with plenty of water, flowing streams on either side and excellent soil. A windmill and tank could be erected rnd hydrants placed in different DOT tions of the grounds that would irri- gate the whole tract Our jail con tains men, whose evil doings have cost this county considerable money, let them be put to work clearing the place of rubbish, plant trees and grass, and thus beautify what is now an eyesore to ourselves and those that come here to remain. Our viii lage has now the name of being the prettisst in the territory, let those in authority add to its beauty by i'm proving the plaza. and make what is
 now barren spot, place of resort for pleasure and health.
