 E. J. Austin has purchased, for $500. the Arizona Chief mining claim, from D. 0. Wood.
 The 40-stamp mill of the Congressi expected to be started up again in . few days.
 It takes c richer mine than has ever yet been discovered to keep in operation against bad management. The em- ployment of systematic business prin- ciples and reasonable economy in ex- psndItures is just e necessA " in min ing as in any other business. During the past few days, twenty liens have been filed against the Silver Prince mine in the Bradshaw noun tains. The claims represent money due from the recent lessee of the prop erty, s. c. Mott. They are all small, aggregating only about $2,O00. The mine in question only few months ago was a regular producer and shipper of gold bullion, and experienced men say could be made to do 90 again.
 FROM HARouA nALA. The Phenix Republican contains the following items from the above camp; Work is being actively pushed on the
 Bonanza compsny's mill and 1t will soon be in operation. The camp is lively and the whole country is punc- tured with prospect holes, in nearly every one of which is miner working. There really are no mines, as far as de- velopment goes, in the district, but the Bonanza properties are surely deposit ors of vast treasure.
 Fred Wentworth arrived last night from Hsrqua Hala to lay in asupply of goods for his store at Harrisburg. Only about three more trips with the teams are required to finish hauling the ma ehinery for Hubbard's stamp mill. The material is all at the river and has been ferried across
 N. 0. Shekels came in yesterday from the Bradshaw mountains. He says that the Crowned King mill is running now with full supply of water. The results have never been as satisfactory e are being obtained now
 NJ. Bradley returned Thursday last from an extensive prospecting tour through the southwestern part of the county, and brought in some orc from claim located by him which gives an assay value of $l, 100 per ton. He says the vein is very wide and strong, and surface indications, as will be seen from the above sample, are excellent.
 Chambers pack train was in town
 o-day loaded with ore and concen- trates from the Crowned King mine, and returned loaded with supplies for the camp. This is the last trip which it will make to Prescott, as arrange ments have been made to pack the ore and concentrates to Antelope on the Black Canyon road, from where it will be freighted by wagon to Prescott. The wagon haul will be only about thirty miles.
 About three or four years ago. A. l. Kerr, of St. Joseph, Missouri, came to this section and engaged in mining, purchasing some properties near stan ton. As an experimental venture and for the purpose of testing the value of the ores in the district, he erected . small Huntington mill, which proved so successful that he has DOW just com pleted ten-stamp mill which was started up last week. He has an abundance of ore in sight and the prospects are now good for a long. suc- cessfui and remuuerative run of the mill. Mr. Kerr richly deserves the success which now seems assured to him ,is:sss.
