John III. Burger, councilman from the
Fourth ward, received advices Sunday
that $4,000 had been rendered him for
his claims in the Harqua Hala mountains
and near the new strike. Through friends
he was q second locator in the district,
and as his Information 10 indefinite, he
does not propose to accept any offer until
he goes out to the camp, early next week.
We are glad to learn that Mr.. Burger is
quite likely to realize handsomely from
his friendly locations. s.--Arizonan.
Mr.. Jacob Schneider brought down
some fine specimens OF ore this week from
the Hayes mine, at Saddle mountain, near
the Gila, about ten miles from its confiu-
ence with the San Pedro. The mine il
owned by himself and Mr.. w. G. Smith,
and has been developed by shaft 100
feet deep, tunnel 100 feet and two drifts
Of sixty and twenty feet respectively. The
ledge lies between lime and porphyry and
the ore is composed largely Of rich sui
phurets, somewhat rebellious and con-
tanning considerable native silver. The
ledge is eleven feet wide with a two-foot
pay streak, the ore giving assays all the
way from 20 TO 40 ozs. per too, in silver.

Messrs. ]. M. Woods, J. T. Woods and
Thos. Earl were in the city yesterday from
the Casa Grande mining district. They
bring encouraging reports from that sec
ton. They we're here closing the sale OF
the Mastodon mine which they owned
and have been working. They effected
the sale and received the coin, but they
declined to state TO whom they sold or
the price received. They showed every
evidence, however, Of being well satisfied
with the deal. This claim adjoins the
Monarch mine on the east and has been
worked for over year, being at one time
bonded to the Monarch company. A tun-
| mel has been run into the mine $50 feet
showing a large vein 10 or IL feet
wide Of low grade gold and silver ore

A strike which was recently made at a
depth of ia feet In the shat on the claim
be longing to Young and AcC Clelland, near
the lime kiln, has not attracted much at
tention, but 1t Is very important one
nevertheless. 1t was the striking of
body of pure clear water which appears
TO be inhaustive. The canyon below the
water is fertile and capable Of growing
almost any crop, and With the facilities
for raising the water to the surface large
area might be irrigated. The fact that
water can bs had at that depth should
stimulate some Of our anterprisiDg citizens
to at least Investigate the possible supply
Of water in that neighborhood. A little
practical work and less theory would not
be out Of place, and would put life in the
fast decaying composition Of our once pros
porous camp.-Fombstane Prospector.
