 Last week MT. George w. Bradley, the we'll known mining operator, re- turned from the east, returning to his very valuable mining properties in the Sierra Madre, some forty miles east of Alamos.

He shipped large consignment of lum- Der, bought from Roy & Titcomb. to be used in making sluice boxes Oasis.
 The Bisbee Orb says there is scare 1ty of miners in the vicinity of Har- shaw in southern Arizona, and that the Worlds Fair mine there needs eight or ten miners at s3 per day.

 The United Globe mines are runnin 2 their large furnace and making a fair output of copper. A new crucible has been ordered, which it is thought will give much better results. A furnace Of 15O tons capacity (the same pat tern as those so successfully used at Bisbee, we believe) has been ordered in the east and will arrive within a few weeks.

 A correspondent reports meeting with three mining men in the Bay Horse district last week who came in by way of Tyson's We'll, passed through the Chocolate mountains. crossed the river with their animals opposite the Paymaster mine and spent some time in looking over that part of the country, eventually stop ping at the Bay Horse mine, where they camped for three days. The man in charge of the mine hauled them water from Glamis for their animals while they prospected the district. They are reported to have said that the Bay Horse mine and surrounding country is by far the richest mineral belt they had crossed in their travels. They left for the west, leaving the as- surance that they would return at an early date.-Yuma Sentinel
