 A. Lange has bonded his Rosa mine at Gila City to NIT. PartZ for S2O,WO paya- ble by the 3lst of December, this year.
 Dan Simons is still unheard from. Money is here for his order and his peo- pie in Texas are still making anxious ln- quiries for him.
 Professor Partz, who has the Rosa mine at Gila City in charges, has not as yes begun operations, but will put on a force of men in few days.
 Dr. J. K. Corson, [. s. A. post surgeon at Fort Yuma, returned to his post just fresh from the Apache battle field. He reports the extraction of no bullets and the amputation of no limbs.
 There are fifteen relail liquor stores in Yuma. This, probably, don't sound well for the morals of the town, but neverthe- less, shows it a prosperous place. It IS an evidence that there IS Q circulation of coin.
 I'll. Blythe, the San Francisco capi- talist, is about placing Sl5O,0 900 more into his colony opposite Ehrenberg. He Is also talking of building a residence at the Warm Springs, near Port Isabei, to reside a portion of the year for his health.
 A lumber yard is to be established at Port Ysabel, by Puget Sound mill men. Lumber can be landed at Port Ysabel from the Sound four dollars in advance of what it costs to place it in San Fran cisco. Cost of transportation from Port Ysabel to Yuma would be about three dollars per 1000.

\ Good Citizen Gone.

There left this city Saturday, as qui- etly as he came, citizen that Tucson could i'll afford to lose. We refer to John T. Pantlird. We have known the Pantlind family for years; they are the leading hotel people of the west, and control more Iotels than any firm ex- cepting the estate of A. T. Stewart. Without wishing to appear too express i've or over friendly disposed, we venture to say that John T. Pantlind Is the ablest hotel man of his age in the west, and we had hoped to have seen him at the head of some large hotel in Arizona (Tucson Is greatly m need of a large modern hotel. We have plenty of hotel talent now doing business here that are able to manage large houses. Some en- terprising citizen should start com papy and build one and an opera house combined.
 Mir. Pantlind was born, brought up and worked in hotels, served from kitchen to office, and was promoted slowly, step by step, from the bottom to the top round of the hotel ladder-from bell boy to proprietor, and was kindly instructed by his people, race of hotel keepers for generations. He served an apprenticeship at each branch of the business dishwasher, broiler, cook, wal ter. steward, store room, bell boy, porter, clerk. cashier and manager of two houses at one time. Pantlind has one treat fault to be successful, he will not stay in one place. He loves travel and is born nomad. He arrived here about one year ago flat broke, and worked, We belive, for Mr. Pearson on a salary, but soon came to the front as a manager, and coming under the favorable notice of Wm. E. Hooper & O., they advanced him means to buy out corner, Tn which every other man who had done business in 1t had failed Pantlind made com plete success of the business and 1t was profitable to all concerned. He sold his interest on account of ill health and left to-day on a prospecting trip through Chihuahua to the Rio Grande, thence north to Colorado and thence by rail to California, where he manages house
 for F. J. Baldwin next season at q sum-
 mer resort.
 We hope that Pant. will keep the Indians from getting what little hair ! he has left, and that he may find an- other ComstOck. A temperate, indus trlous, rustling. public spirited, gray haired citizen has left us, and may all the good luck in the world follow him and his place be filled here by many of his kind.

CanYon del Orn.

NIT. l.. D. Chillson returned from a trip to Canyon del Gro last Wednesday, He had been visiting the Chillson and McC Elliott group of three mines now the property of the Lot Bowen Mining Company, which was organized last spring and did some work on the claims in June, when the party went east to make final arrangements for a full de velOpment of the mines. The work Is now to be resumed at once, and tunnel run in 150 to 200 feet. Work IS also being prosecuted on other claims in that vicinity to a considerable extent. The great need of the miners of that place now is a good county road. At present all supplies are hauled to the mouth of the canyon and then packed five or six miles to the camps. The road should be made through the canyon to Oracle, which would cut off fully ten or twelve miles of travel in going to that camp, with water at convenient points. It Is hoped that the several companies and the many miners there interested, will move in the matter of petition to the Board of Supervisors for B road. Mir. Chillson on returning met eight or ten pack animals fully loaded, going mp the canyon, and the activity manifest there forsbodes lively times. Mir. Chillson To- cated two mining claims and seven mill sites while in the district.

 of a Curious Cave in the Mountains.

4 great activity exists in the mining sections of the Sierritas Mountains at the present time, and properties are re- celvlng considerable attention in the way of development. Among them is the Providencia mine, owned by a New York Company, Mir. Phil. Garcia, Super intendent. The main shaft of this mine Is down fifty Feet, having cut several veins of ore in going down. The ledge was reached few days ago and two feet of good ore has so far been disclosed 4 . tunnel is to be commenced shortly, to intersect the vein below the bottom of the present shaft The work is to be rrosce',:-i .,i. i.ie ., os a' Tngersoll rU, g ,i.-.i. aaG t..s r:j,, l...i io' ,1e,op- e.i systematically.

The entrance was twenty feet wide and the cave ex- tended into the mountain fully thirty feet \ huge fragment of rock had fall- en from the roof which was covered with the black drippings of asphaltum or brea that is continually seeping from the rocks above. Mir Hcrzincer touched match to some of the drippings and they burned very readily, making . dense black smoke. The cave contained many Indian relics, old Indian flutes and yari- ous painted articles, baskets, etc. Just outside the cave basins had been con- structed in the rocks to catch water, and these were full of water when Mir Her ilnger visited the spot. IL is supposed that this IS former rendezvous of the Apaches, and afforded them Q secure re- treat which overlooked large area of surrounding country It had not been inhabited for q long time and the tracks of wild animals were visible about the entrance. A party will soon make fur ther exploration at the cave.

The Powers that Be.

Mr. Anthony Powers enjoys a peculiar distinction. He is one of the pioneers of the town of Wilcox and built the first house in that place, and started the first restaurant and hotel. Besides all this, he Is father to the first child born Tn Wilcox. It is boy, and named James Wilcox Powers. General O. B WillcOx made the infant present of a valuable silver cup-possibly with the motive of stimulating other infants to emulate his example.
 Mir. Powers has recently renovated his hotel, and fixed ii mp in good style. He says that Wilcox Is enjoying a season of prosperity, and matters have quieted down since the Indian scare. 4 military post is to be established at Railroad Pass, four miles from Willcox, and a con- tract has been let for sinking wells at that place.
 Mir. Powers Is an enterpnsing and en- erretic business man, and a valuable citizen in building up town. His towns men have selected him for the important position of school trustee, an honor worthily bestowed.
