Onyx.

According te many recent reports
 from the recently discovered onyx de- posit near Prescott, A. T.. it will evi-
 denuy prove to be one of the most
 valuable mining properties on the
 continent. Messrs. A. Macon and C..
 a. Smith of this city have just returned
 irom the nine and reportsi, as showing
 wonderful results as work progresses. The deposit covers over 200 acres and
 pisces shows a thickness of over fifty
 eet of onyx. The quality k reported by the best scientific erpeTts te be oi very superior srticle---muoh more valuable than the Mexican or any other onyx now in the market. The lowest estimate yet made by any min ing engineer Is about 20 .0oe, 900 cubic feet, and as it ia worth from sl0 Co $s0 per cubic foot in the rough and an un- limited demand for the article, it can be seen s, s glance that the value of the property Is almost beyond concep- tion. Messrs. Mason and Smith have an exclusive option on the property and naturally expect to make a big thing ost of it.
 They have just had several hundred Ponnds of the onyx cut and polished Rs specimens 10 shc~ the great variety and beautiful ooiorings of the stone These specimens they have decided to put on exhibition at tke chan Der of in this city fer few days previous to sending them east, where they expect to organize company to purchase the property or work it on large scsle.-Los Angeles Tribune.

The Sszerac, which has been closed
 for few days, for repairs, will be re-
 opened again tonight. In having the
 place remodeled and reftted, it's pro-
 prietor, G. ". Sines. has caused such a complete metamorpbose of the place
 that its old patrons will scarcely know
 it. In addition to the handsome new
 front placed in the building some time
 since, which adds greatly 10 the beauty
 of the exterior. the place has also been treated to new tin roof. The entire interior has also undergone complete change, the ceiling having been raised and the main hall and club rooms hay. ing been repsinted and repapered throughout, the latter having been slse recarpeted. The paper used is of the latest and most artistic design. A beautiful finish has been given to the bar by the skillful manipulation of the painters brush, and an elegant new mirror added to the back bar. These Improvements taken in connection with the addition of 6 commodious ice chest and the rstouohing of the frames of the pictures which sdorn the place, make it now One of the finest places ef the kind in the southwest and s credit to the enterprise or its proprietor. For
 
 the reopening this evening, Miss Ada Melville, the charming vocalist and pianist who has elighted audiences tbere for months with her faultless rem dering of both. popular and classic mu- sic, has arranged . select programme for the occasion, which cannot fail to please those who may drop in to take look at the place. or course every one is invited to be present this evening, on the reopening night
