 c. L. Baehe.
 At the present time, when so many mines are being opened up in Yavapai county, and so many men prospecting, it is a very important piece of information to learn where there IS a frst-class assay ceice. There Is none which can be more thoroughly recommended than that of Mir. c. l.. Bache, who has just opened an assay office on Gurley street, just below the Hotel Burke. Mir. Bache IS by no means a stranger to Arizona. He has been here for years. As far back as 1872 he was employed in the mill at the Tiger mine, after which he went to Tomb stone to take charge of the public assay office at that place. The Treadwell Company of Alaska, recognizing his ability, offered him extra inducements to go to that country. After he had fulfilled bis contract with theT Co. he de- cided to cast his lot in our midst once again, and is now ready for business. Mir. Bache is Philadel- phian. He was engaged in the assay aud melting department of the United States mint, in the city of brotherly love.
