1t is understood that Wilson. Wood
& Scanland have bonded six copper
claims in the Chiricahua mountains to
an English company for $4,000. The
mines have all been developed to some
extent, with encouraging indications.
The deepest shaft is down 100 feet. Their
further development will attract atten-

chronicled, though from time to time
the Tombstone Prospector has always
mentioned the discovery of valuable
prospects in that vicinity, some of which
have been worked to advantage. the
lack of sufficient capital alone prevent
ing them from being numbered among
the county's heavy producers. Cochise

some newly discovered prospect which,
when properly developed, will add to
the wealth Of the county and bring pros

The w edge Mine

The Wedge mine is again in shape to
do business, and they are taking out
good ore that runs about $3.50 per ton
right along, says the Randsburg Miner.
They have just had mill run on ore that
gave much better results, there being
forty-two tons which produced between
$4,000 and $4,000. Part of this lot was
what is called low grade, running only
about $25 per ton, and thus cut down
the average of the selected ore. The
ore was milled by the Johannesburg Re
duction works, and the run was highly
satisfactory.
Ore is being sacked at present on the
115 foot and 1G5 foot levels, where it is
left until ready to take to mill. A new
ore house is to be constructed at once,
and when this is completed the ore will
be hoisted as fast as mined.
