HARSNAW AND WASHINGTON.
Good News for Zinc Mine Own. CTS and a Go. d Report From HarshaW and
 Vicinity.
HARsHAw. Sept. 2lst, 1891.

ED. PROsPECTOR :--Dullnes- reigns supreme; all the bright an,icipations of a few weeks ago have sOberd down into the following few facts: The "Hrrmosa" i| still name 10 cOnjure wi h for chlori !ers. After Mir. Finley wili drew his men, the same lucky mortal, Mir. Chas. Powers, took anoth. CT Cease, when-presto! changel the ore Uhediently appeared at his magic touch. The other names assoc lated with his in the bond are Thomas Davis and James lIubbarl. The ad- Oining mine, the liarl.hrll, is being worked under lease to Mir. Jack Sny- der of Tucson and Mrssrs. Thomas Shran and Frank Mcguire, with what sue, ess is not known.
 IIarshaw is almost rent in twain oyer the posioffi"e mntiile, which has proved veriialle .empe.t in a tea pot. Some rum"r of il has, no douht, Iea he'd the out i.!e W. rli, hut the true inwar'in+ss of it is not yet known tO your correspondent. In the full- ness of time it nill al no doubt, be revealed and explained.
 At ,he MOwry the work is nearly completed for the placing of the new hoist. It is stated on gmal authority that Mir. Albert Steinfeld is now in New York fo. the purpose of etfeciing sa'e of the property.
 There has hten an atmosphere of suppressed exnl'aiiOn surrounding the Washington Camp men which caused i no little curiosity among the Har- ~hawites. The rivalry existing be: w-en the two camps on arcuunt of the merit claimed by their respective ores, has caused some it,er feeling. The Harshaw hoys w"ul,i simply gay "zinc' toa Washingtoni'e and straIghtway the latter would collapse.
 But now a change has come OCT the spirit of their dreams anal the Wash- ingt"n crowd simply repeat the word "zinc" but with the different infec- tion, you will observe. It. has leaked out that they are in receipt of circu- lars from the smel,ers asking about the formerly 'lespised metal and bidding well for it.
 Under these circumstances tine HOl. land mine, leas, d to York, Fields and Glrarm is likely io prov" a bnnanza to the per severing ,rin. The Allen group of mines will also be ben, fitted although they are sufficiently high grade 10 warrant ihe shirmen, of the ore, three ca'l,a,ls of which have just been disra'rhed. At the Trench all is silent now except for the clatter caused hy the Chimss cmk at the boa,,!ing hunse which now does duty for the Alum Gulrh crowd. Of these last few words are necessary to complete this skct, n ;-Tu tln m Is certainly due the cte'lit of developing long negl,ct. d sccri"n and ,htieby a.iiiI E to lInr.haw's lautls.
 The tirst uo asi"ni.h the old rpei- dents WAS Mr. Frank Powers, who shipped ore which returned $500 to the t"n, from his Worlds Fair group. 4 lease on one of 'hrm is held by Ed. Hnopp rom Tombstone. The next Iu lam a [, ntion were the Colorado hoyS: Ellis and Gap - of D. nver. They are working the January, under a lease, and have a b.aiy "f ne two feet cnd half wide. Their dump displays ararlmd of g,mal stuff, aEd they are malestl. jn, liant.
 The next clam is leased to Dick Farrell and Jack M"rrison and they also have some ore to sh"w for their enterprise. D. U. M. P.
