NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

A. w. Warwick, the Bill Williams Fork mining man, expects to put up copper shelter on his properties in the near future.
 The Commonwealth mine shows up well in milling ore, about nine or ten years supply being in sight at pres ent. About $150,000 was produced by the mine last month. Three teams are employed in transporting shipping ore
 Arizona moved up a notch in 1897 in her position as to her mineral out put. She was formerly fifth on the list in her production of precious metals, but in 1897 took fourth place. Within less than ten years, and some conservative mining men place it at not to exceed five years, if her present progress in the development of mines continues, Arizona will head the col umn.
 A very important strike was made recently in the Congress mine, brief mention of which was made some time since by the Journal-Miner. It was the striking of body of ore in the cross ledge of the Congress claim. Heretofore work has been done alto gether on the main ledge, although the existence of this cross ledge was known to the owners, but had never been developed. In doing some cross cut work they struck good ore in the cross ledge, which induced them to prospect the lead some, resulting in striking body of ore at the $50 foot level and also on the 800 foot level The ore body is not only larger but richer also than that in the lead they have been working for years and it may be said that they have practically opened up new Congress, bigger and better than the old one. They are now working to strike the ore body o1 the cross lead at the 100 foot level.

 One might imagine from the excellent terms he makes with his publishers that MT. Hall Caine was a grasping author. but the public is assured by those in 8 position to know that such is not the case. They say that he is absolutely in different to the pecuniary rewards Of literature. He likes to get large I rices. not for the love of money but to prove to a doubtful world that there is no novelist more popular than he.
 ''Locksiey hall," Lincolnshire. which Tennyson made famous. was offered for sale last week and withdrawn because the highest price bid for the hall al 30 acres of land was $5,3C0. Either land is worth very little in England or senti- ment does not flourish. One would think that S10,OOO would be cheap for such place as real estate, without any literary value being thrown in.

GREAT COPPER BELT.
The Dragons in Cochise County Con-
 tain Rich Deposits of Copper.

The Dragoon mountains are fast acquiring a reputation throughout the mining world as a most promising and inviting field for copper mining. No less than five groups of mines are now under bond and several are being negotiated for, according to the Tomb stone Prospector. A mammoth cop per belt extends from one end of the range to the other, and some valuable copper mines are being developed. Two smelters are in course of erection and some extensive work is contemplated by the holders of some of the promis- ing properties.
 At the Golden States company prop erty, which was visited by a Prospect or representative recently, bustling scene of activity is noted. Over twen- ty men are employed about the min e and shelter, which is being erected, and work of systematic and perma- nent nature has been done. The smell ter machinery is on the ground and is being put in position as fast as me chanics and workmen can push it. The shelter is of thirty ton capacity and is conveniently located. One mo- table feature is the economical handl- ing of the ore, which Is handled through what IS known as the Thomp- son tunnel, 225 feet, having a connec- tion with the main shaft Cars are run to a big chute in the tunnel and being filled are run to the shelter plat form over a tramway 520 feet in length without rehandling. The i'm mense platform is being filled with ore ready for the shelter. At the mine and drifts ore appears in large quan- tity, and handsome specimens of na- tive copper and delicate, fragile cabi- net specimens of plush and velvet ap- pearance abound. One rich specimen of over 600 pounds was taken out and left on the dump as a sample which is sight for sore eyes. In the cave recently struck rich ore is found, and it is believed succession of caves ex- istS whereabouts.

MINES NEAR PHOENIX.
They are Beginning to Attract Atten
 tion of Outside Mining Men.

There are a great many good mines in Maricopa county which are begin ming to receive the attention they de- serve. Mining men coming here from abroad are usually taken off into other counties by local promoters, and the mines near Phoenix are seldom ever given a chance to show what they are. The organization of the Maricopa miners association will have benefic- ial effect in bringing to the notice of mining men these properties. Some of the best mining men in the territory are now operating in Maricopa county. They have faith in their mines, and every mining man who has visited the mining districts of the county has been favorably impressed with the prospects of opening up good produc- CTS here. With a good mineral dis play and an organization of the min CTS there is every reason to believe that the county will come to the front rapidly. The meeting at the Elks' hall in Phoenix Saturday should be at tended by every mining man in the county and every person interested in mines. The call is broad, and no one is excluded from membership if he is interested in the mineral development of Maricopa county.
