 Arizona Republican: Ten stamps of the old eighty stamps at the Vul- ture mine were started up last week to work on ore from new strike nn the Vulture property. Captain w. c. Davis, who Is nov at the mine in charge of the wor. there, some time ago started crew of men at work sinking a shaft northwest of the old workings where the vein showed in- creasing values as depth was attained on it. There was perceptibe widen ing of the vein from the start until it has assumed width varying from thirty to forty inches, with increased values at every foot of depth. A great deal of ore was taken out during the progress of sinking which has been hauled to the mill This new pros pect will be worked with yigor until it is thoroughly developed. Mr. G. R. Williscraft of Phoenix returned from the Vulture yesterday with some samples of the ore found in the new shaft. Tue ore resembles the old time Vulture ore with the same gen. erOus sprlnkling or free gold. hr. Williscraft thinks the strike Is very important one for the Vulture people inasmuch as it Is on continuation of the rich lead which gave the vulture mine to the world.

 Phoenix Herald: It is said that the King of Arizona Mining Company is going to make change in the com pany mill. The McArthur-F Forrest cyanide proposition will be substi- tuted for the treatment of ores in- stead of the electrical precipitation now in use.
 Prospector: F. F. Brady was in yesterday from his gold mine in the Dragons. He states the ledge has been widening with depth and every thing looks more encouraging. This property is located in the gold section near South Pass and we hope to see good property developed here.
 Yuma Sun: W. II. Curry and Sam Shankland nave erected a ten ton tailing plant at the site of the tailing pond of the old Jaynes group, at Pica- cho, and as soon as their engine ar rlves from Los Angeles, will begin operations in this valuable pile of tailings, consisting of about 5000 tons, which will average $3 or more per ton. The present ten ton plant will soon be increased to twenty tons.
 Tucson Citizen; The wonders of Mammoth mine are not half known. Tne mill will consume and crush l75 tons of ore per day and this immense amount is furnished by five men who break 1t down and send it to the sur face. Probably no other mine in the territory can make such showing. The ore body is wonderful in strength and width. It is all ore and every pound knocked down goes to the sur face and thence to the mill.
