Great Activity in Mining Matters s-The
Coal Mines-New Buildings.
PERRIs, Nov. 19.-The activity in
mining matters in the Perris district
continues to increase. Among Other
important moves during tho past week
is the bonding of the Convex mine.
which is an eastern extension of the now
famous Alice. The Convex has been
bonded for $40, 600 to a party OF eastern
capitalists, who will begin work on their
new property within few weeks. 1t is
probable that stamp mill will be erect
ed there, as all the indications point to
a large supply OF ore.
The Briggs Bros. have also opened
some new prospects a short distance
from the Alice claim. The Good Hope.
Santa Rosa aud Santa Fe stamp mills
are using coal from the Elsinore coal
mines. They use about 12 tons per day,
and get it at rate of $3.50 per ton de.
l;vered.
Speaking Of the coal mines, it is per-
haps not generally known that
the Elsinore Coal and Clay
company are operating their mine more
extensively now than ever before, A

EARTHQU AXES AT CAMPO.

Apparently Chronic Attack of Tenn
biors.
San Diego Sun: The earthquake sea-
son seems to bs still on in the Campo
region, where the expari ence OF three
years ago is being repeated. The shocks
continue day and night at irregular but
frequent intervals. None of The shakes
have been sufficiently severe to do any
damage. and because OF a theory that
prevails among some OF the people they
rather enjoy it. The theory is that tho
earth is now shaking itself back to the
normal condition from which it departed
during the earthquake period of three
years ago. They point to the fact that
these quakes not only closed the living
springs OF the mountain region bu. also
closed the springs of the skies, and no
rain has fallen. The first shocks this
year rsopened the mountain springs and
the hope is that from the supply OF
moisture thus set free, rains Will form
and fall all over this country.
