NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

l There are several fine prospects re- gently opened not far from the Sagi- | naw mines.
 MT. Paulsen, a placer miner, has re- turned to Prescott from a trip to the hIondyke.
 From Arivaca and Gro Blanco comes the news that the mining in those dis trlcts is very promising. James Critchley an old time Tomb stone miner has accepted a position in the Copper Queen mine. The Mammoth company is running fuI. handed and promises to be one of the large gold producers of the terri tory.
 A new copper field is reported not l far from Crittenden the body of ore I is very large, the grade good but not
 pure copper.
 1 The Saginaw company is employing 1 fifty men on it's mines and mill and 1 ,..4rty on Lhe new purchase, the Butte copper mines.
 ! The Table Mountain company has seventy-five men on its pay roll and it ! is the intention to blow in two sixty
 ton smelters in few days.
 D. B. Gillette and B. B. Thayer re-
 turned to Prescott last evening from Owing to a lack of water they have
 been compelled to close their mill. There will be a miners drilling con- test in Prescott on the Fourth of July
 next. Purses and rules will be an
 nounced later. It is the intention to
 make this the biggest drilling contest between miners ever held in the south
 west.
 l Santa Fe Pacific officials are con- sidering proposition for five dollar
 rate on low grade ores. me rate will
 go into effect before June 1 and ought
 to be the means of moving thousands | of tons of low grade ores shelter
 ward.
 MT. c. F. Shilling superintendent of
 the Milwaukee and Arizona Prospect ing and Mining company came down Wednesday from his mines on Miner
 al creek. He reports the properties of
 his company looking remarkably well,
 especially the Fannie L., upon which
 large body of high grade gold ore has | been opened up in the 3UU-fOOt tun- nel.-t Florence Tribune B. F Thompson, who has just re-
 turned from a trip to Virginia camp says the amount of ore exposed there
 by the small amount of work done will startle miner. Everything is ore
 that gives good prospects in the horn spoon. Cooke Brothers and Blythe
 have a great property and the claims
 recently located by R. G. Thompson
 show free gold. Virginia promises to
 be one of the big gold camps of Mo
 have county.

It is conceded by legitimate min ing men of the territory that the King of Arizona Mining company has one of the best properties in tine southwest. It is free milling proposition beyond compare, with ore enough in sight to keep an hundred-ton mill going an unlimited time.
 It is to be regretted, however, that this property is located in such an out of the way place, so far from wa ter and fuel that it makes the success full production of the values at profit to the owners a real marvel to the mining world at large. Operations at this property are closely watched by an interested and eager class of min ing men, who have probably like con ditions to contend with, and who will at once make use of any simple, sci entif1c or even complicated plan of operation adopted by this company.
 Col Epes Randolph, who has been instrumental in bringing about the success already attained at the King, is a man who if entrusted with com plete authority and freed from Oppo- sition, doubtless could solve the per picking question of the most practi- cal and economical method of pro- ducing the values from this highly prized but difficult proposition. Col. Randolph is man of business, and a gentleman in every sense of the word. He does not profess to be an expert mining man, but after having grap- pied with such difficult deals as he has been forced to contend with, an easy proposition would hardly keep his mind occupied. He listens atten- lively and respectfully to all sorts of theories. The special process" fiend, who can extract gold from ores without water, fuel" or any such necessary things, finds in him seemingly "easy mark" but his enthusiasm is gener- ally dampened by few well put and sensible questions, which attest to the sensible and cautious nature of the man.
 Col. Randolph is now the promoter of very laudable and well proven scheme to extract the values which were left in tailings after amalgamat- ing ores that had been hauled a dis tance of thirty miles. Mills of all kinds, tramwayS, reduction works, rail- roads and in fact all kinds of schemes have been entertained in regard to the successful and economical extraction of values contained in these ores; the public at large have, however, done more talking than the owners of this property It is safe to say that when a plan of operation is agreed upon by those interested, mills, railroads, etc., will be constructed, and not on "pa- per-"

An American gold standard man
recently declared that gold went with
the higher civilization and that silver
belonged to a lower civilization. Let

OF the world. Germany was on a ell

German civilization and German
achievement and German greatness

The Nov AruIor-Plate.

In the rapid march Of progress. it
looks as il Hsrveyized nickle. steel
armor-plate we're already @-back
number" Says writer in Cassier's
Magazine (October): f...-. ....,..
According to present indications,
the Krupp process Of hardening
armor-plate for war-ships seems to
be giving results superior to the older
and better known Harvey process.
Some trials recently made in the
United States, ut Washington, D. c.,
showed that projectiles with strik-
ing velocity OF 1900 feet per second
passed clean through a Harveyized
nickel steel plate, while the striking
velocity Of projectiie Of the same
caliber had to be raised to 1850 feat
per second before it passed Though a
Krupp nickel-steel plate Ut the same
thickness. The rule in such cases is
that projectile will pass through MS
many inches of wrought iron for each
thousand feet per second Of striking
velocity as it is inches in caGber.
Thus 6-inch projectiIe with 1000
feet per second OF striking velocity
will just perforate six inches of
wrought iron; while with q striking
velocity of 1000 feet per second it
will just perforate twelve inches of
wrought iron. AS the resistance OF
Harvey lied nicltel-steal is exactly
double that of wrought iron, we must
use twice the striking velocity to per-
forate plate of this material. 1t is
evident that projectile OF tho cali.
Der used i'll the Washington trials
would have gone through u wrought
iron plate Of the same thickness as
the two on trial with striking We
locity of 1000 feet per second. The
relative resistance of Harveyized and
Krupp armor-plates is, therefore,
taking wrought-iron rs I, as 2 is to
235. This gives the plate made by
the Krupp process at the Carnegie
Steel Works, at Pittsburg, a slight,
though positive, superiority over
British armor-plate made last year by
the same process, the ratio being 2.35
to 223. OF course, it is understood
that when the test is one of armor
plate only, the question of the relative
penetrative power of proiectiles plays
no part in it 30 long as these are able
to perforate the armor without break.
ing up.
"The comparative figures, giving
the resistance of different kinds 0f
armor-plate, which were arrived at
after exhaustive tests by British ex-
ports in the latter part Of the year
1897, are interesting. Tho experts
agreed that wrought-iron II inches
thick, steel-faced armor IL inches

7 inches thick, and Krupp nickel
steel arnor 6 inches thi:k we're equal
in resisting power. The saving in
weight thus effected by the substitu.
tion Of Harveyized or Krupp armor
