tentlon 1t must be almost phenomenal. In this part of the territory scarcely day passes but some prospector comes to cur stores for supplies, and tells of some rich find he and his partner have made, always bringing with him gold bearing rock that would have caused stampede toward his discovery two years ago. And the country has not been one-tenth pros pected.
 John Gandolfo of Yuma, is the owner of the Sierra Pinta mines in Sonora. These mines are among the richest in Mexico and have been worked considerably, but not scale their value justified on account Of their isolation. They lie on the western coast of Sonora beyond an immense desert barren of vegetable and animal life, but only six miles 1 from the sea coast. They are easily accessible from the Gulf of California. The ore in them is perfectly free mill ing and averages S25 per ton in free gold along the entire length of the vein. There are 400,0 tons of this character of ore blocked out in the various workings
 The present bids fair to be a great industrial year in Arizona. Especial ly is this true in mining sections, and that includes almost ali of Arizona. ! New mills are being erected in many 1 localities, idle ones are resuming oper- ations in other camps. The big cop per camps are all active except Globe, and it will be but short time, accord ing to reports, until the Old Dominion will resume work. Last week this magnificent copper claim was sold to parties in the east, most of whom are owaers in the Arizona coppef mines at Clifton; thus it will be seen that they buy, after long experience m copper mining in ArlZOna The oid Dominion has produced s,OO0,0OO pounds of COZ per annually for many years.
 A. Falco recently leased the old Peck mine, which in its palmy days employed hundreds of people and made times lively in Prescott and good all over northern Arizona. Since the lease, Mark Murphy was sent in as mine foreman, and force of men has been delying away in the long deserted workings in search Of a new ore body, or rather the same old ore body which was lost, and there is good reason to believe that the sought foI ore body has been found, and that it is as rich, or richer than ever. Three tons of ore taken from the new strike sampled eight thousand ounces silver per ton, and eight tons sampled ont thousand ounces silver per ton. It i' thought that the property will soor pour out silver equal in value to it. old time output, at the present low price of the white metal.

MINING NE Vvs.

feet. is now working 25O men.
 There are more unexplored gold fields today in Arizona, where mines can be secured for location notice, than any other country under the sun.
 Mohaye county has made a name for itself through it's ore shipments. The books of the Colorado smelters will tell story of Mohaye's wealth that cannot be gainsaid.
 The Santa Maria country, between Mohaye and Yayapai counties, is look ing up, and several of the larger claims will be worked extensively and sys- teInatically in the near future.
 Recent discoveries in Mesquite pla- cers have created something of an ex- citement in Yuma county. Nuggets weighing three and four dollars are common. Many prospectors have gone there.
 Thomas, a new mining camp sixteen miles south of Blaisdell station on the Southern Pacific railroad in Yuma county, is attracting attention. A recent shipment of gold ore netted SiO per ton after paying all charges.
 Col. Scott, a mining expert from San Diego has been inspecting num- Der of mines in Yuma county. One day last week he made visit to some of the mines in the Cargo Muchacho mining district. The Colonel is very enthusiastic over Arizona mines.
 Last week White, of the Contention mine at Tombstone, visited the new find in the Dragoon mountains, and offered the owners S20 900 for q four months bond on the property, the price to be $500. 900 should the mine be taken at the expiration of the bond.
 Recently on the Colorado desert, be- tween Yuma and Indio-in California mot far north of the railroad, two men, in nine days, picked up sl6,OOo worth of gold nuggets right off from the top of the ground. They describe the region surrounding their find, as rich in mineral but dangerous to pen citrate on account of scarcity of water
 The converters of the Copper Queen company for treatment of sulphide copper ores are proving grand sue cess. Some eight of the machines are now in operation and two stacks are kept constantly employed in their use. Ground for third stack is being cleared. and with that, three of the converters can be kept constantly in operation.
 A mining sale of immense import. ancc was consummated in Prescott on Saturday last. It was the sale of the Waters mine on the Santa Maria, fol s4O. GOO. The purchaser has let con tract for 20 stamp mill, which is t' he completed within sixty days from date. The stamps are to weigh So' hounds each, California pattern, and cyanide tanks will also be put in.
 The Copper Queen Co.,. is erecting at iiisbee great Hue to carry the Sul phur fumes from their converters ti the top of the mountain adjoining the town, discharging them at such ar elevation that they will not annoy the people, who have heretofore beer subjected to great annoyance on tha' account. The new lluc is a large eigh foot pipe, leading from dust chambe into which the converter stacks vii discharge. The fue will lead to th' top of hill five hundred feet above and will terminate in low stack.
