REAL ARTISAN WELLS.
Five Are Flowing in Cochise
 County.
They Are Of Greater Value to the Territory Than Mines of
 Gold Says MT. Owens.
From the Tucson Stsr.

From the Tucson Stsr.
 Mr. H. B. Ovens, Jr.. who was in the city few days ago from St. David, on the San Pedro, on business at the U. S. land office, gave Star reporter some interesting facts regarding the artesIan wells near his ranch.
 There are five artesien wells in what is known as Marcus fiat, a bout two or three miles north of St. David, and they are all in Cochise county. Me- Crae brothers have two of the wells, the first one they drilled belrg cased with twoinch pipe for about fifty feet from the surface, the soil to this depth being of sandy character and liable to cave iu. They then strike clay and no casing is needed in it. The second well they drilled they cased with fve-inch pipe, after finding the first one to be a success.
 Farley P. Sabi also has two wells, water in the second being struck last Thursday, 1t being two-inch pipe and flowing about fifteen gallons of water g minute. Goodman brothers have one well of 134 inch diameter, and with but small flow, although the deepest of all the wells located in the lowest ground.
 All of the wells thus far sunk stop in quicksand, and range in depth from 19U to 270 feet. It is thought that if pipe were used and the well cased clear down through this quicksand that 2 much stronger flow of water wo1ld be secured, and arrangements are being made to test the plan.
 The water is caught in reservoirs and then conducted through canals and ! used for irrigatin2, and the possess ors ! of these wells may justly feel that for the conditions existing in this country they have in them that which is better than gold mine. Others in the neigh borhood are trying for artesian water and with good prospects of success. MT. Owens says that the total cost of the wells already drilled is probably only about $50 each, and only about fifty feet of tubing being needed to reach to the clay soil. In the drilling the McCrae brothers have a new idea and instead of using a drill and sand pump, as is usually done, they set 8 small pipe inside the larger one and then with pump force water through this smaller pipe and it washes the sand and earth up to the surface by 1 hydraulic pressure.
 MT. Owens thinks there is no good reason why artesian water may not be secured in many parts of the territory, and thus ranchers be made indepen. dent of canal corporations. The peo. pie of his section are enthusiastic over the results of their trials in this direc' l tion.

RICH COPPER CLAIMS. Valuable Ore In Large Blanket
 Deposits. Assays Show That It Carries Greater per cent of Copper
 Than That of Bispee.

From the Prescott Courier.
 Geo. Waddell and MT. McNulty, the latter of Montana. returned from Big Copper creek yesterday, bringing in some splendid specimens Of copper ore from claims they located on noun. ta in on the creek.
 The ore shows. on the surface in various places large blanket deposits. They placed knife iii a small rivulet which ran from one of the veins and in 8 few hours the knife had strong coating of copper showing that the water flowed through almost solid cop per at some point.
 Assays Of the ore show POS and S.2 per cent copper. Copper Greek flows 8 large, unfailing stream near the locations which are ten miles south. west of Prescott. This ore is richer than that of Bisbee which is said to carry 12 Ter cent copper.

A BAR OF GOLD.
Another Valuable Mine De-
 veloped.
TWenty-One Tons of Ore Yield . Bar Worth $2SO-Owned by
 Tucson Men.

From the Tucson Citizen.
 A bar of gold weighing about $280 was received by Hon. s. H. Drachmen this morning. It came from the Al. kire mine near the west line of the old Fort Bowie reservation, owned by Messrs. Thos. Chatham and s. H. Drachman, and is the result of twenty. one tons of ore worked by MT. Chat man in the Casey mill at Dos Cabesas.
 The ledge is from two to four feet wide, has good walls and free milling. The lowest depth thus far reached is but fifty-four feet and the indications for an increased valuation with depth are excellent. Mir. Chatham is an old pioneer and an experienced miner and knows as much about gold rock as a pedagogue knows about book. He believes that the Alkire is just what he looked for, 10, these many years, and when he found it he exclaimed ssAl- klre," and so named it.
 This word in the Apache tongue means II have found it." It is Eureka by another name and he hopes to make his long sought fortune from it. Both owners deserve well of the country, for they have gone broke on it dozen times apiece.
