The Customs Once in Vogue In the Ari-
XOna Mines.
From the Arizona Star.

From the Arizona STAR
The methods in vogue among the ancients FOL
she Development of mines were in many respects
| ar different from those in use at the present
| time. In the country to the south of us the
! descent and ascent of shafts were made by
means Of notched logs. These were from twenty
to thirty feet long. extending from level to level
| The logs or ladders were climbed by the sure
| footed miners, the AZtecs, and more recently by
| the Indians, who were engaged in the dslodg-
| nent of the precious mineral. The ore was
| placed in rawhide bags containing about halt
| a bushel, this same being rested upon the back.
| while it was held in position by straps extend
| ing across the shoulders united in front, and
| fastened through its own weight upon the
| forehead.
''If mine were overlooking with water the
| troublesome fluid was removed in these bags in
| the same manner as the Cre by the miners who
| tediG;isly climbed the notched poles, and whose
| notches answered the place of wider steps. The
| ore was removed in manner almost as tedious
| Fires were built against the walls of the mine.
and as their surface became calcined the incin-
| Grated portions were dislOdged by stone ham
| mers. The melting was equally as cumbersome.
| being effected with charcoal and bellows. Yet
mining was profitable under these crude
| methods. 1t is not surprising, therefore. that
wonderful reports continue to reach us of the
richness OF tie abandoned old mines of Sonora.
which, with the Introduction of modern ma
chinery, worked by energetic and experienced
Americans, will soon astonish the world with
their rich productions"
In the early days of the Comstock we have
seen these nOtched poles in use in the Mexican
mine in this city; also the rawhide sacks. How
ever. they used picks and shovels and blasted
out the ore instead of burning it out. The ore
was worked in plastras. and by the patio pro-
cess-lndeed the patio process was in use here
for years, and not alone by Mexicans Horses
were used for treading these patios to stir up
the pulp. and in a short time the poor beasts
presented a pitiable appearance. The bluestone
in the pulp took all the hair off their legs and
covered them with sores, while the quicksilver
salivated and poisoned. 1t was said that the
horses became charged with mercury that it
oOzed from their eyes,
