MT. c. D. Henry, of Florence, in- forms the TRIBUNE of some valuable claims recently located by him and others about twenty-five miles east of Florence and three miles west of the Ripsey mine. On the principal claim, the Bonanza, MT. Henry says the crop pings are 400 feet wide, and at con servative estimate there are 30,000 tons of ore above ground. Mr. Henry, who has credentials as an assayer and metallurgist, has made some sixty tests of the ore, which he says goes from g to s25 per ton in gold and IS to 25 per cent in lead. If the ore maintains this value, and there is not an over estimate in the number of tons, there are more than 8 million dollars in sight in the croppings alone. But there are some five or six other claims equally as good. Me. Henry is cer- tainly to be congratulated on his valuable discovery.

Sick headache, loss of appetite, hesh and sleep. nausea, heart burn, are among the physical annoyances obviated by the Bitters. They are in the nature of signals of distress displayed by disordered stomach, liver and bowels, and disappear with the cause that produced them' But these signals should be needed at once. Then the woebegone look of chronic ill health will speedily disappear. and vigor and com fort restore cheerful aspect to the face. That faithful index to the condition of the system never fails to wear look of sunshine when the Bitters is used to dispei the cloud.

 T. J. Marks, the popular agent of the Southern Pacific, has been transferred to Pantano. Mrs. Marks has gone to Wilcox to reside with his mother, join ing him some time in June. This trans fer caused some commotion among the people and lively but decorous appeal was made to Supt. Randolph, in peti tion form, to have his erder rescinded but it was of no avail, as promotion in line of duty was the only motive.
 Joe Ulloa, an old-time prospector, has been purchasing considerable prop erty in Casa Grande, having acquired all of Mrs. Williams houses, and im- proved them by additions and renova- tions. He is also engaged in the butch CT and restaurant business, in connee- tion with a Tucson party and Mir. Angulo, of Florence. Joe will be in comfortable circumstances soon, and be allowed to take life easy, provided he has no bad luck.

Snyder is at present engaged in taking out q few carloads of ore to be forwarded for testing and demonstration before the character of the plant is decided upon.
 The new copper camp, adjoining the Silver Reef properties, acquired by the Peck interests, of Louis, are being rap idly pushed to the point of demonstra- tion, under the supervision of J. H. Can avan. The mines are bonded from Stiles, Mayhew and Ulloa, with Mir. Sehetter as the fourth party, for $50 ,0O0,
 on which about 5000 has been paid, the remainder payable in September. Aside
 from running three drifts themselves, they have let a contract to John Moran, Billy Stiles and others'to sink perpen- dicuiar 5x7-foot shaft to the 100-foot level, at cost, so it is rumored, of $14 per foot. Jack Shnlze has the contract to haul the ore to the smelter, which was hauled down by him from Mineral
 Creek, and temporarily erected at the [ Reef mill to take advantage of the water and machinery. After a run oi l 1000 tons or more, a permanent location for the smelter will be made at the } mine.
