 | Some of the richest ore ever found in | the district is being taken from the bot tom Of the shaft m the Survey mine. 1 The San Rafae mine has just been | bonded for $500 to Chicago parties. It ! is one of the m0st promising locations : in the camp, and will doubtless be a go. Ore was struck in the Standard mine yesterday at the depth of 100 feet. This mine is on Allen street, between Ninth and Tenth The one shat We saw was low grade, but ore nevertheless. It Oc- CUTS iu connection with black spar, which has proven In some of the miues about Tombstone q hamburger of large deposits If this strike proves exten- siye, as there is probability of its dO- ing, it will be a strong incentive to the mesa mines to push their developments.

The Captain, though prepared to see a big mine, returned in much the frame of mind that a certain Oriental Queen is reported t0 have been in when she saw SOlomon's temple, and exclaimed in her astonishmeDt, "The half has not been told" At least the Captain has not told the half since his return. and it is tO be doubted if he makes the attempt.
