tneir terVor Knew no bounds as they
 passed over one range and another
 in search of the same metal we of
 today SO eagerly grasp at. It had d
 gold and silver foundation at the
 start, and today it Is maintained by
 the same metals, only more SO. Lake
 all old timers, it is playing a new
 hand in the old game, and, while a

 mineral sphere, in brief, is unequal
 led, and throughout it's boundaries

 As to the origin of it's name there
 are two sides to the question. One IS that the Ysyapai- Yuma Indian dialect says it signifies running wat CT, while from another source the story goes that the Spanish crusad- CTS while passing through this sec ton over 300 years ago captured a small band of Indians, camped near this stream, among them a young and beautiful squaw. In attsmpt- ing to escape, one young "buck" was mortally wounded, and while in the throes of death pointed to his sweet
 heart and passionstely exclaimed, " "Hassayampa.n From this act of af- lection, the present name is said to have been chronicled in the charts designating the location of that stream, and as interpreted ia believ- ed to mean Beautiful Maiden" Among those who still stand by its mineral interests, the claims below show what IS to be expected from it:
