work progresses upon it.
J. J. Williams of Prescott, and inter
ested in the Copper World and Antler

are sorry to state, was not as successful
az was anticipated.

countered, az we'll as the richest. Mr..
Amer has done great deal Of work on

a good strike in the Robt. Emmet. They
have an eight foot breast OF ore, which
shows gold to its full width. The claim

them, and is located high up in the
mountains above the Flores mine.
