 Russelville now boasts population of about 150. It has two general merchan- disc stores and several saloons, all doing good business. The town is situated about three miles from the railroad The Peabody mine, J. G Wall, superintendent, owned by Philadelphia capitalists, is the chief object of interest in the camp The main incline is now down 110 feet, from the bottom of which drift is run S6 feet. From the drift winze is being sunk, which has reached depth of 30 feet. At the bottom of the winze an ore cham Der has been opened 16 feet in width, with no wall on either side. The ore av- erages 40 per cent. copper and carries S200 silver and S60 gold to the ton The shelter is running steadily, the daily bull lion output being five to six tons. The mine has been examined by numerous ex- perts, all of whom pronounce it bonanza of the first magnitude. Al Burlington is foreman of the mine, and to his thorough knowledge of his duties is in great meas ure due the gratifying success of the com pany. The shelter Is in charge of James Hughes, who Is also the right man in the right place. The sale of the San An tonic was recently yconsummated, the price paid being S50,000. It was bought by an eastern company, and development will be pushed vigorously, three shifts being at work now. The shaft is down 30 feet, the bottom all in ore. e.--The Copper King, also owned by the Peabody Com pany, IS being worked, and looks as well as did the Peabody at similar stage of development The Dreadnaught, own ed by Buford & Stanton, is remarkably fine prospect, but is not being worked at present Tho Mount View and Minneapo- lis are also considered very promising clatms. The camp is eligibly situated in every way, of easy access, has abundance of wood, and plenty of water for smelting purposes may be obtained by sinking Tho present outlook is considered cheer ing. and brilliant future may be predict ed.-Independent.
 A new strike was made in the south drift of the Blue Monday the past week that promises to run into veritable bon anza when properly developed. The work of exploring the new strike will be pushed forward rapidly. The other work of development, heretofore reported, IS continued -The crosscuts in the Grand Central on the 400 and GOO levels are still being vigorously pushed, and though the indications of ore bodies in the immediate vicinity are good, nothing of importance has yet been struck. The stopes through out the mine are in excellent condition and there is any quantity of ore in sight The usual quantity of 0re-about 90 tors is being shipped daily to the mills, and there is sufficient ahead on the mill dump to provide against delays in the rainy sea son. The bullion output of the Grand Central for month of July was S100, ,000. The slight falling of was in consequence of shipping large quantity of second class ore that was in the way of some i'm provements that were necessary to be made in the dump at the mine. The Head Center mine is working along as usual without serious change. The usual quantity of ore is being hoisted and sllipp- ed to the mill. Stoping is mostly confin- ed to the first level. The steam hoisting works will be in position in a few days and vigorous work may then be expected. The bullion output of this mine for the month of July amounted to S21, 500. This does not represent the entire month, as the mill had not fair start with the month --On the Randolph the four winzea at present being sunk are going through solid body of high grade ore, and the drifts and cross-cuts are showing ! up equally well. There is enough ore in sight in the mine at present to keer twenty stamps in constant practice for two years, and there is not less that one thousand tons on the dump About twenty tons is being shipped daily to the mill. At the Winfield sinking, drifting and stoping is continued, and the mine never looked more promising than al present. Shaft No. is now down 14( feet, in fine ledge matter. No. ? is dowr S5 feet and looks very promising up wei and there Is hardly doubt but bonanz; will be proclaimed in few days.-Th, Good Samaritan has not been worked fo the past three weeks, in consequence O water being struck at depth of 19 feet As soon as pump can be placed in posi- tion work will be continued On tn, Marguita sinking is still continued anc the prospects are very good The shaf is now in the neighborhood of 30 fee deep and will be pushed to depth of 10 feet as fast as powder and muscle can eff feet it.-R. H. Cavill is winning laurel as superintendent of the Empire. Stric attention to business, combined with abil ity and suitability, is the secret of hi uccess.-The mining reporters ar glad that Prof James of the Contentio
 is back, as he Is always ready to yield u
 legitimate information -Senor Berni
 los, very clever and agreeable youn man, is assayer at tho Contention. -
 The Contact IS being steadily worked an
 is showing up we'll as development pro
 gresses. Church is still in Mex
 co, and is not expected home for som days.-The Guelph Con. is sinking
 good ledge matter.
