Arizona has few Of the old time pros
pectors left. Those who used to tramp
over the hills with their burros in front
OF them, have. like the antelope and buf.
falo, vanished and gone from sight. The
prospector OF too day rides . bicycle forty
miles and back; sleeps between sheets,
and takes bath before going to bed.
Where an old timer would have epent
SIX weeks digging and picking from hill
to bill, now half hours gaze toward the
horizon will convince the average pros
pector that some fellow has taken mp the
whole country, and he returns home,
puts on his dressing gown and lighting
his havana, tells his wife that he has been
prospecting, and that there is nothing
In the new ldistrict which has not been
taken up." The next day some more
energetic person comes In with eome
rich rock. and the stampede is repeated
over again.
What Arizona most needs at the pres.
ent time 10 indefstiganle prospectors who
do not 20 crazy over speck OF gold, and
who do no. prospect with field glasses.

w. g. Rifenourg, who is in Kingman
from the Colorado river, says that he has
made the discovery that on the bed rock
at Temple Bar there are treasures Of
gold. The gravel yields from twelve and
one-half to TIVE nty.five cents to the pan
and Is very coarse. A man can make big
wages panning the gravel. In q few
weeks the company will have water on
the ground and will be able to handle
thousands Of yards Of gravel daily. There
Is no doubt Of the richness Of the ground
and we expect to See q big rush Of min
