MINING ME ws.

has been running on Shraum's peak This lofty mountain contains many mines and development is all that is required to make it a great producer of precious etals.
 Mobave Miner: The Pay Roll has several men working on it extracting ore and digging the screenings. Ore has been taken out of the Pay Roll that assayed as high as 34 ounces gold per ton. A sale is about to be made of the Pay Roll.
 Journal-M Clark & Stuckey, of Lynx creek, have recently added a new concentrator to their mill, and started it a few days ago. It has been working very successuly demon strated, they expect to add another one of the same make, and start up the whole ten stamps of their mill.
 Prospector: The Commonwealth mine shows up we'll in milling ore, about eight or nine years supply be- ing in sight at present. Dame rumOr has it that about one hundred and fifty thousand dollars worth in ore and bullion were taken from the mine last month. About three teams are employed in transporting the shipping ore.
 Globe Belt: John Nelson who was in town on Monday, reported that he discovered an immense ledge carrying gold, on Upper Tonto, near the mouth of Rye creek. Tcnto creek cuts through the ledge, which can be traced for long distance. An assay of the ore made here returned S2l in gold. A number of locations have been made on the ledge.
 Journal-Miner: F. X. O'Brien, who is working the Mahoney group of mines, a short distance from the Crown Point, is putting ten stamp mill on his property, the dev- elopment work already done being deemed sufficient to justify this. The outlook for the above section, it will be seen, is extremely fiattering, the work hiDging, as in other districts, on work and the attainment of depth.
 Prescott Courier: Report is that the development work in the Gladia- tor mine shows six-foot pay streak of excellent milling ore. This ore is exposed in level run from the bot tom of winze, and is at depth of 7OO-feet below the out-croppings of a vein. In driving the drift twelve feet the pay streak has widened from three feet at the shaft to six feet at the face of the drift. The bottom of the shaft also shows a pay streak of over three feet.
 Tucson Star: Henry Wicks came in yesterday from the FresDa mining district looking as rosy and good natured as ever, although he has been doing some hard work on the gold properties owned jointly by himself the Messrs. Allison and John Brock man, being the property one-fourth interest in which was sold on Friday last to Brockman by D. J Bun v for s35, ,000. The property Is already yielding free gold ore Of q grade su.ll- ciently high to warrant shipment
 Arizona Republican: F. Ossen- berg, who Is here from his Gold Hill mine, which is located three miles i northeast of Congress, yesterday re- yealed to a Republican reporter a strike made in his mine some time ago. It consists of a two foot ore chute which has been developed sum- sf tc z

Prospector: Work at the Golden States copper property is being push ed ahead with vigor. The shelter it is thought will be ready to be blown in by March TO- Twelve men are at work in the mine, and yesterday the workmen came upon huge cave in the lower workings, the extent of which has not yet been explored. The chamber is over thirty feet high and nearly as wide, and some of the finest specimens of copper taken from the mine were brought from here, large specimen being sent in to G. H. Ftts and can be seen at his store.
 Prospector: The call for territo- rial convention of miners was answer ed in Phoenix by representation of less than half the counties of the ter ritOry. W. s. Adams of Yavapa was elected chairman. After a sharp de- bate it was agreed that the attend ance was not such as would warrant the completion of per manent organ lzation. A committee was therefore appointed consisting of one miner from each county to formulate an ad- dress and to call convention at such time as would in the judgment of the committee be advisable.
 
 A. W. Warwick, mining man of Butte, Montana, has taken hold of mining claim in Santa Maria district in the southwestern part of this county, says the Journal-Miner. He is pushing work actively on the de- velopment of his claim and is con- templating erecting mill soon on his property. MT. Warwick believes that the Santa Maria district is one of the richest in the territory, and the fact that it is new and undeveloped, gives him good ground for believing that some big strikes will be made there with the advent of prospectors.
 AilLuud hcpuoilCdu' 1ucIc dfc dS good undiscovered mines in Arizona as any that has been opened, is the creed of every prospector An im- portant find has lately been made near Fools Gulch by J. F. Allenburg of Prescott, who is now in the city. The ledge was come upon by accident, as most of the big lodges have been found. A caIload of ore was taken out and shipped. Recent returns show that 1t netted sl,O0O. MT. AL leDburg yesterday received letter from his son, who is working the mine, saying that the ledge is in- creasing in size and richness.
