getting out ore and feeling encouraged at the prospects ahead The mill will start up again in day or two on rock from one of J. J. Gosper's mines.-Prescott Dem ocrat.
 The Blue Dick mine, near the Dosoris, which sold the other day for eighteen thousand dollars, Is only recent discov- cry, and has undergone but partial devel- opment. The Dosors, near which it is located, has, however, yielded within q few months over fifty thousand dollars, and is looked upon as q bonanza, which runs high into the millions. With such evidences of mineral riches in Arizona immigration will not be retarded by either Indian wars or cowboy proclamations. Nh. Nye, under whose directions the works of the Santa Catalina Copper Con- pany were put in place, came in from camp few days ago, and reports that, with the exception of a short piece of tramway, everything was in complete working order, and a showing of copper bullion may be expected soon. The saw-lniil has been at work for the past two weeks, cutting out lumber for the necessary buildings - i Yesterday morning q man drove up to T.. l1. Hlli11LSG considerable quantity of silver amalcam and inquired if it conld be run into bricks 1 at that establishment. Mir. Wetmore, who is equal to anything in his line, res | bonded in the affirmative and with tie assistance of H. E. Wilcox, who volun- ! teered to see him through, proceeded to l work. He used large blacklead crucible to melt the silver in and constructed fur- mace of adobes (which he finds almost equal to fire clay). He first made two bricks about nine inches long and three 1 by three inches in diamater with such sue cess that he got ambitious and went to the l store of NJ. Katz and borrowed regula- 1 ton size mould left there in transit to some mill. He then successfully made i two more bricks of the largest size. e.-- i The silver IS quite pure and the batch weighs about 2,zG0 ounces. He did not ascertain the name of the miner ordering the work nor from what mine the silver came. "A new strike of importance has 1 been made in the Democrat mine at San Xavier, the copper going as high as 40 per cent. Tucson Star.
 The Randolph.-This promises to be one of the great mines of the district at no distant day. Work of development is progressing rapidly and large bodies of 100foot level Southwest drift ill 105 feet. A winze has been started G6 feet from the shaft and is down 30 feet
 Abreast of the wInze the ore-body is 12 feet wide and no foot wall vet in slght
 Northeast drift in 20 feet. 130 tons of ore taken out of last 60 feet of shaft; 250 : T. O IS down S8 f,et, ore all the way. Cross cutting to tap southwest drift from No. 1 at present. Cut 3-foot vein last Thurs day About 300 tons of ore on dump, running from $50 to $200. Quality of ore chloride, horn silver. carbonate and manganese. Mine looking fine and worked with avidity. N. lS. M. Co.-Work continued on the 3G0- foot level of the Toug1 Nut and Good Enough, both drifts being in ground car rying punches of rich ore. The Combi- nation ore body is yielding about the same. The 1G0 foot Touch Nut and 250 Good Enouoh are the principal ore bodies; the West Side vein is yielding fair quan- tity of high grade ore -Grand Central On the G00-foot level tie drift has been driven south about 210 feet. No change reported since last week. The drift has hecn tlriven throurh q stronr ledge of very fair ore On the 300 400 and 800 foot levels drifts are being driven south
 All looking well The cross-cut from the new shaft on the coo foot level is in. 75 feet. Harl lime3toae rock and slow proyress consequently. Estimates that ore will be struck at 150 feet The stopes are looking as well as ever. The bullion output for last month amounted to S134, G50; routine work beinr done and nothn 7 of unusual character. Ore looking better than nformerlvandm millineto better purpose.
