stamp mill, turnning out on an average over S14OOOper month on halfrun; the ore is of good grade and easy to handle.
 The mill is situated at the river and mines run from 5 to 10 miles on both sides of the river pene- trating into Nevada on one side and Arizona on the other; the Arizona metal mills from S900 to S34O while the Nevada mills from $1O0 to S240 per ton.
 The country is much broken up showing signs of violent volcanic actions while the formation is parthry and granite, the lodges are quartz carrying both gold and silver.
 The South Western Mining Company the oldest Company in the District has been working to a disadvantage of late and has shut down the mill, on account of bad management on the part of the Superintendent and the scarcity of provisions in camp caused by the long intervals of time in which the boats make their trips to the Cafon-But, as the boat which started Sunday for the. Cafon carrys a large quan- tity of supplies for the Company anu a new 5uDerintendent has taken charge it is to be hoped that the mill will start up again in a fourishing condition.

FL DORADO CANON.
Its Mineral Outlook.

We had the pleasure of short visit from G. L. Goodhue, mana ger o. the Lincoln Silver Mining Company of Fl Dorado Caficn. MT. Goodhue was on his way to the Cafion from San Francisco where he las been purchasing aud shipping large lot of SUD- plies for the mines. Mr. G. ex- presses himself more than satis. fed with the mines in his District and asserts it to be one of the rich, est mineral Districts in the coun. try. Nonfacilities of transpOrta- tion being the only obstacle which prevents it from proving itself as such-but as three Eastern Rail- roads are pointing towards its vicinity, this obstacle will not tre' mann in the way long.

ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.
By Jumping into the Colorado
 River.

MT. T. T. White late from Los Angeles, who has been until recently in the employ of the Railroad Company acting as sec ond cook on the carpenters car; on Saturday afternoon attemped to commit suicide by jumping in- to the Colorado river from the Steamer Gila which was tied close to the bank near the shipyard; and would have gone under but for the timely assistance of MT. Jake Donahue on the scene with boat thus rescuing the drawn ing man.
 Our reporter had an enterview next morning with Afr. White and after some hesitancy MT. W. gave the following account which lead him to commit the rash act. Having been subjected to many disappointments of late, 1 became disgusted with the ways of the world, and concluded to make things short, by taking my own life. So on Saturday afternoon I walked on board the boat which is lying in the river near the bank and seeing two or three persons getting on the boat, at the same time as l did'I thought they were watching me, to prevent me from taking my life, although I had not communicated my intention in doing SC to any one. I ran to the other side of the boat from where this parties were, jumping into the river with all my clothes on, I went down twice swallow ing all the. water I could time on coming up the time I realized my situation and was willing to be safed, seeing a boat near me, about this time I grappled for it and was taken on board by MT. Jake Donahue, I was perfectly senseable during the whole time was in the water. Since then l have thought over the matter coOIy and have come to the conclusion that I don't want any more drowning, and take things as they come hereafter. After giving MT, White a few words of encouragement our reporter with drew.
