"A shipment or N<U,ulu iu gold
 bullion was made on Thursday from
 the HAraua Hals mines.
 A deed has been filed for record
 from Mrs. Boynton to A. Faleo for a
 one-fourth interest in the third
 north extension of the War Eagle
 mining claim, in the Bradshaw
 mountains, the consideration being
 S40o.
 The Sundsnce Comnsny Is await
 ing the arrival of new machinery
 for their mill, which they propose
 10 erect at their Silver Trail mine
 The ambition of Phenix to have a shelter has been realized. Accord
 ing to the Herald Jones and Foster have put up a five ton handy pros | pectihg furnace near the Williscraft 1 foundry and will make a few test runs Io demonstrate its ability to
 successfully work the low grade base l ores of this country. 4 short run was made Tuesday afternoon upon | some ore carrying values In gold, 1 silver and copper, and out of about
 l50 pounds of ore a bar of bullion about ten pounds weight
 was obtaiued. The bar is on exhi-
 bition at their office in the Lewis
 building. There are thousands upon thousands of tons of low grade ore
 Tn this territory of good value, but
 not of sufficient value to pay for transportation to a distant smelter
 If this small shelter that Jones and Foster are introducing in this sec ton will work these ores success fully and at profit, 1t will cer- talnly be great boon to this coun- try. They offer to make practical demonstration of its capabilities to any one interested.
 J. A. Flemming, while in Gila county last week, visited that DOT ton of the San Carlos Indian reser- vatlOn which has been set aside for entry Hs coal lands, and says he fail l ed to find where any of the numer- ous locators had found any coal. | There Is lots of slate in the forma- l tion, but coal is only found in small 1 pockets, and DO one has as yet sunk | very deep to find whether coal un- derlies the slate.-Herald.
 J. A. Fleming and associates are working a copper property near | Globe which is very promising. MT. | Fleming has just returned to Phe- nix from a visit to 1t and to the Her aid states that his company has one of the most gigantic mining propo- sitions in the entire west. The ore body which is some thirty feet in width extends for several miles and that at almost any place oD the claim the ore body can be laid bare i within two feet of the surface. The | shaft IS now down 300 feet in solid ore and at she bottom of the shaft eTosscut shows the vein to be 22 feet in width. This company will i next month begin the erection of a l0O-ton shelter and in the very near future wlll be turning out bullion m large quanties-
 C. B. Genung and sons. who are working an extension of the Levia- than mine. near Stanton, struck a body of ore recently which goes Sl0O per ton in gold. They are work iug IL with su arastra, and are real iziug excellent results.
 Dick McNary came in last night from hls Cross mine, in Copper Basin district. He has just com pleted taxing out twentv-two ton lot of ore. which he thinks will go over SlO0 per ton. This mine has been great producer ever since its discovery.
 C. L. SchaSr, manager of the Pla- cerija Company, recently made a clean up of S3,O00 from a fifteen days run on ore from the Coral mine, one Of the group owned by hIs company. A very rich chute of ore was recently struck in this mine It assays as high as $92 per ton and plates S60 per ton.
 Despite the reports to the con trary, it IS said that the present lessees of the Bonanza mine. at Harqua Hala, will probably make application for a renewal of the lease. The application wlll be made at the headquarters at London. Ten stamps are kept running twelve hours per day. and the lessees are believed to be doing we'll with the property.
 Sam F. Webb, collector of GUS toms, is the owner of an excellent mine 60 miles south of Nogales. The claim is called the Favorite. Fifteen men are kept busy taking out ore and the output even at a shallow depth pays much more than running expenses. There are but few claims in the west that fur nish ample ore to pay cost of opera tion during the period of develop Gazette.
 The owners of the Little Annie mine, about eight miles west of town, have their shaft down DOW to a depth of 65 feet, and have four feet of ore which goes 30 per cent in copper and carries several dollars in golG and silver per ton. They are preparing to make shipment of ore soon. At the surface where they work on this claim, they only had a small stringer of ore, and it has widened out to the above width in going that depth. 
 Our Mineral Wealth tells of a very rich strike recently made ID Mohave county by Harley Fay. It says that for 300 feet in length large quantities of float is scattered over the ground from which assays have been made that run all the way from . 1 to B ounces in gold per ton. The . average is seven ounces per ton. The vein dips to the southeast and the work that is now being done will determine its staying qualities, i, ,L,.,--k ,k., .-, . A |
