 croppings and surface ore of which

 Nil. Kings lease on the Vixen mine,
 owned by Foote & Dunavan, has ex-
 pired, and the owners will put men at
 work to develop it. It yielded good ore 1 to the lessee while working it. The
 mine Is in Lynx creek district. l J.M ". Moore has some beautiful spec imens, of lOOOounce silver ore, taken from his Amulet mine on Lynx creek. What Is better still, he has plenty of 1 the same kind of ore for shipment. The Amulet Is by no means a "specimen" l mine sim, '
 John Prout sent . wagon load of sup plies ou; to Copper Basin to-day, also l six miners to work on the Bean copper properties IL will not take very long to determine about the erection of plant on this property to work the ore. John :. Jones, manager of the Stand ard mill, will make a clean up tO-mor row of about two or three weeks run. Ii he realizes in this clean up anything approximating estimates of competent and reliable persons who have seen the plates, the Standard Company's success l Is assured.

 pile, ted y !o skull valley, for his placer
 camp, near that place. The claim is | owned jointly by him, Ed. Roberts and John Morris, and is located between skull valley and Copper basin, the gravel being hauled two miles to Wm. | Rudy's place .o he washed It is very rich, yielding as high as $9 to $l1 per load
 Geo. Merwin has about recovered from his recent spell of sickness, and will leave soon to join his partners ill the Dosoris lease at that property. They are engaged in drawing and sort ing over the old >topes and dumps, and as soon as the former work Is done will clmmeuce working the mine. Some new developement work Is also being done. Notwithstanding the inclem- ment weather of this winter, they have upwards of $2 900 worth of ore now ready for shipment. This mine has produced ore running into the hun dreds of thousands of dollars, and has not been worked to any great depth. Cyrus Griblc, tine efficient Superin- ! tendent of the V~ture mine, informs a Phenix Iaper that no sale of that prop erty has taken place, as recently re ported. The I00-stamp mill of the com pany is pounding away on rich quartz | from the mine, and shipments of large amounts of goli bullion are made regu-
 larly The property, at present, Is | owned hv Senator Tabor, of Colorado, who has, without doubt, bonanza i'll it. The Vulture iaS been the principal gold l producer of Arizona for several years, and bid, fair to continue its reputation ! for years to come, If managed as | economically and systematically as at | present under the management of MT. l Gribble.
 J. $. Russell and Wm. Cooper are working the Morning Glory mine, in l Copper Basin district. They have a ! shaft down 20 feet, and have three l feet ledge of good gold ore, assays of samples Of which go $l25 per ton. The | Morning star, another location by the | same parties, in the same district, has | also shaft on it lJ feet deep. The | vein of this claim is smaller than that ! of the Morning Glory, but the ore assays | equally as rich Tine same parties have | also located recently, near the above, three other claims, called the Hidden 1 Treasure, Loreno aul San Diego. They I have done no work on them yet, but | will do a small amount soon. Samples of cropping> show plenty of gold in 1 horn spoon, but no assays have yet | been mad from them
