THE AGE OF GOLD.

MT. Macarthur, one of the Invent ors of the cyanide process for the ex- traction of gold, has been giving his views with respect to the future sup ply of that metal. He points out that true mining for gold only commenced about the year 1860, and that up to that time we had only been gathering up the detritus, as it were, alluvial deposits being merely what had crumbled down from the reefs. Now we are going to the sources and at tacking the auriferous rock Of the extent of which we know very little, while of the depth to which they may descend beneath the earth's surface we know still less. They have been traced for 5000 feet downward, and geology confesses It's ignorance of what may lie below. t'There seems no limit" observes MT. Macarthur, ''to possible discoveries. Some years ago the proportion of the precious metal obtained from alluvial work ings was as four to one compared with what was won from it's rocky matrix. Now these figures are re- versed. In Russia, including Siberia the west coast of Africa, British
 Dutch and French Guiana, some oi the South American states and Bor- neo, the alluvial output is overwhelm- ingly greater than that from reefs
 which is only a thing of yesterday
 How great an increase in the yield may be expected to take place, there fore, in all these countries when the steam engine and machinery fol crushing are brought to bear upon ths
 reefs, of which the alluvial gold is the mere debris?" Gold mining D concludes MT. Macarthur, "is jus beginning to take the place that cop per or lead mining has occupied fol
 centuries. One has no more reason to doubt the continuance of gold reef: than one has to doubt the continu- arce of other metalliferous mines No one can say what quantities O gold may be concealed in the mort
 central parts of the earth, nor wha improved means science may find fo, extracting it from great depths."- | Mining and Scientific Press.

to procure, three several sets having so far been issued, widely apart. As to CaMfornia's gold product, the sec retary of the mint has discarded the regularly accepted official report and seems to depend upon carrier pigeons. From the best Obtainable sources it is believed that the worlds gold output for '96 aggregated $220, 900 ,000; of this the United States contributed $53, coo, ,O9G; Australia, S44,000,000; South Africa, S42,000,000; Russia $32.000,00u; Mexico, $6,O00,000; British India, $6,. 900 ,o0O; China, S5,oOO,0 ,00O.
 Good reports come from the mi and mines of the Sundance company Information received is to the effec> that 100000 pounds of concentrated have been shipped from that camTj this month, and by the 20th of Oc- tober it is expected that the output will reach 10000 pounds day. The ore is taken from the Aztec and Sll- yer Trail mines. The Aztec ore is said to run $35 to $40 per ton, and the Silver Trail from $50 to $10O. A miner who worked in the Aztec some time ago says that in sinking on a four-foot vein he took out two tons of ore to every foot sunk. and the ore went s65 to SS0 per ton.- Courier.
 One of the largest copper proper ties in Pima county is owned by Nat Ftaisom of Tucson It is situated in Silver Hill, Silver Bell district. There is a contingent claim of $1 900 against the property, which it is understood will be taken up by the Copper Queen company, which is now exporting it and to which bond Is to be given.
 Arthur Crepin, manager of the Col umbia shelter compaIly's store is in Tucson. He says the smelter is run ming with success. The mines from which the shelter is supplied with ore are showing up as we'll as ever. The mines in Washington and other camps of the Patlgonias which are being developed are keeping up their output and good prospect.
 The Klondyke excitement seems to have extended all over Europe as we'll as this country. Albion w. Tour gee, the we'll known writer, who Is now visiting at staid old Bordeaux, on the Garonne, writes: "The people in the middle walks of life are much interested in the Klondyke gold fields. The impression seems to prevail that these fields are destined to be even more marvellous in their richness than those of California, Australia and South Africa Men are looking for opportunities to invest in reliable companies, and I am deluged with inquiries in regard to a thousand things of which I know Mttle, and a thousand more of which nobody knows anything"

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

Superintendent Blauvelt leaves for the Gladiator mine today, where he is working forty-five men. Good re- ports come from the mine-Courier.
 J. c. Rankin, who is interested in the Waters and Standard mining prop critics in the Santa Maria district, re- turned on last evenings train from four months visit vast-Journal- Miner
 The production and export of cop per for August, as compiled by John Stanton, shows: Produced by the United States reporting mines, 16,- 3O9 tons; produced by outside sources (estimateO, HOO tons; produced by foreign reporting mines, 6,963; mak- ing total production of 24,372 tons: exports were 10,971 tons.
 About this time of year good many holders of mining locations | are called upon to decide whether it IS best to try to hold on to several locations or develop one at least to the extent of meriting a possible pur- chaser. Those who adopt the latter course will come out ahead in the long run-Or the short run.
 1 Weekler & Snapp, who are working | the White Spar mine, Hassavampa | district, are taking out silver ore which runs about 600 ounces per ton. About half mile west of the White Spar mine in Yavapai county, w. H. Fer guson is working five men upon a group of claims which are said to be looking very well indeed.
 Hon. A. Cornwall is in Kingman from the Big Sandy. He thinks he has made an important quartz discov- cry in the neighborhood of his home.
 J. R. Halsey of K1ngman received 6 return from shipment of ore to the Pueblo smelter that shows Mohave county mines are the banner produc- CTS. It gave 3,056 ounces silver and 1 IT ounces gold to the ton.
 Senator Philip Baker is now man ager of the Cedar Valley Gold and Silver Mining company in Mohave 1 county, vice George Thresher, remov- ed. Senator Baker is a bright and energetic business man who will make of the mines under his control big paying properties. He was in Kingman early in the week looking after the sampling of carload of rich ore.
 Encouraging reports continue to l come rom the SaglnaW mine in Pi- ma county. In the Palo Verde claim at depth of 150 feet there is a body of pay ore eight feet wide Other portions of the property look equally well. At least such is the report of MessTs. Cornell and Mckay, who visited the camp. They further re- port seventy-eight on the pay roll of the company.
 Statistics of the worlds gold pro- , duetion of '96 are almost impossible
