 GroBE, July 3O-In order to fully enjoy a visit to a mining camp, the assistance of some ono who knows the country and the best points of interest in the district is almost indispensable. was so fortunate as to make the ac- quaintlnce of NIT. Ira A. Vail, who, aside from the experience gained in l a long residence in Nevada, has a most intimate acquaintance with the mines of Globe District. Hence his devoting his time 10 showing me the best properties in the neighborhoOd was of great value to me, and am under corresp 'nding obligations to him for the courtesy. His firm faith in Globe has never been shaken and his greatest pleasure is in watching and aiding the mighty strides which the camp is making toward pre-eminence.
 The first mine Tn the vicinity of Globe which visited was the Irene,
 where saw what are sad to be some Of the boldest and finest croppings in the Territory They tower high above tine hill tue whole length of the claim and as far beyond as can be seen from the mine. The Irene lies about three miles and a halt north of the town, and is located on what Is claimed and believed tn be the celebrated Stone wall Jackson ledge. A brief giancl al this lode will not prove wholly uDinter- esting. The polar trend of the lode is northeast and southwest. The Stone wall lies within q mile Of the north east end of the loie, in the town of McMilen, and the Irene is within two or three locations of the southwest end. Between the two there is not an inch of ground that is not located, though the distance is something in the vicinity of sixteen miles. The Stone. wall is noted for the richest shipments that were ever sent rom a silver mine, and the Ireae Is of itself q magnificent showing. l visited it in coinE any with MT Vaii, and we were shown through the property by MT. Wm. Haskin, the son of the Superiutend- ent, Mir. J. ". Haskin. The claim follows the direction of long hill, tine croppings showing fully 60 feet wide, and forming tine crest of the hill. This makes the mine plrticu larly convenient to work, and after sinking l3j-f0Ot shaft on the vein at a polnl about 200 feet from the south west end of lhe mine, a tunnel was run III tine side of the hill for A dis Jance of 320 feet, tapping the vein at a point nearly 24o feet below the crop pings. Here ihe vein was cross-cu, lS 1 feet, the iace still in good milling ere, ard drift wss run 90 feet to ihe ! southwest, where an upraise was started Co connect with the shaft above. ] This latter WAS necessary as an air con- | nectiOn WIS imperative for the proper ! ventilation of the mine. The entire | drift and uprdise are in ore that nY aC- ! iual les average assays Sl20 tn the ! t"n Work iS prosecuted principally i on the upraise. as lt vii be impossible | 10 vigorously continue the work unti! | an air connection IS made.

 About six miles from Globe iu q | westerly direction lies section of l country locally known ss Gold Hill | II k about mile in width and four ! miles in length. IL Is nearly three 1. miles to the north of the supposed line 1 ofthe famous Stnnewall Jackson ledge, ] and is peculiar in the fact that it is the 1 only section where gold predominate@ ! in the mineral formation. While gold ! Is found in almost every quarter of 1 this great district, yet II is essentially . a silver bearing country, and Gold !. Hill therefore possesses an interest 1 dIsiinctively its own. lt comprises in . the neigh uorhood of eight well-deiined ! parallel veins, one of which, known ! as the Townsend, is located for h dis . tance of 7J00 feet. The others are . considerably shorter. was much [ surprised at the amount of develop . ment in this district, as so little of its | wealth has been heralded to the out . side world.
