 Richard P. Rothwsll of New York, editor of tho Engineering aud Mining Journal, has been made chief speci Il | agent to take charge of the collection of statistics of gold and silver for the | eleventh census. This inquiry is re- garded % by far the most difficult among mining industries, particularly in the matter of showing the produc- | ten by states. This is on account of the increasing practice of mining ores in one State and smelling them in another. Beggs. for One-hslf interest in the Old stagsr mining claim, in Big Bug dis trict, for $lOO, has been filed for record
 Among the bullion prod dueing mines, or mines from which lots of good ship ping ore has been taken. but about which very little has been said, Is the Black Horse mine, in Hasssyampa dis trict, owned by WIT. Richardson and Charles Wallace. The property is opened up by three shafts, the main ono of which is down to depth of seventy feet; another one has been sunk twenty feet, and third thirty feet. all being on the ledge and in good ore. A ten tons lot of the ore, worked at Cxrtmelrs mill on Groom creek, a few years ago. netted ,he owners $l ,O52. although the arrangements for saving the precious metal to any high per centage was very imperfect, The last ore taken from the mine was skipped to Pueblo, Colorado, for treatment and gave return of S253 per ton. sam ple of this latter re can be seen al this office. The ore that has been taken from the m;ns has more than paid for the devi.,pnent work done. and all the s,ui ing that has been done Is a block twenty-sigh. feet in length by twenty feet high. The miue is located in forest of pine trees, so that wood. as we'll as water, Is in abundance right at the property. There is also in con- lection with it good tive-yoom house, shop, etc, in the way of improvements.
