 THE PEANET-SATURN. Walter
 Fellows, who came down recently from Fools Gulch, says that if the as- says on the Plane't-Saturn hold out as the work grows deeper, and it is prob able that they iIill, the mines will form one of the most fiourishing groups in the territory. When the property was first opened an attempt was made dof work the ore with crush CTS and otiher methods which failed. | The inability to handle the ore was due to its extreme hardness Mr Eel lows says that in drilling the miners consider that they are doing well if they succeed in maing an inch in an hour. The ere is now being worked with stamps. Ten stamps are engaged but the work is only an experiment. 1 There is enough ere Cn the dump to last a year. A good force of men is employed and the company is push ing the work rapidly. If there is a possibility fer the mine it will be brought cut by thelp resent operators, who, it is understood, are we'll backed
 ACCUSED OF INSANITY. "A few days ago an unknawn Mexican rode into the vicinity of Tempe afi1 stop ping at the house of a man Of his own race was invited to have supper and remain over night. He has been pres at cir ha in ner of yesterday, and would not have missed that one, only his ll-lst brought him to town and lodged a charge of insanity against him. He will be eX- amined today. He has ncit been vio- lently insane and, in fact, tlle only complaint the host can make is that he has been unable to find cut any thing about lis visitor. He has spent three days trying to lalrn his name and idhe place he anle from. The host has been negle'cting all cl1her bus incsG and sitting up with his guest at night.

The accused is l an old man, perhaps sixty years of l age.
 "A REVIVED DISTRICT. -Thcimas l HlcLland is again in town after trip l to the hot springs. He reports the 1 mining interests about hct springs to l be enjoying a miniature boom. c MT. | Holland speaks favorably Of the Pi- 1 cadho region. His first acquaintance ] with that district was in the early 1 60S, when there was some little ac- tivity. Since then there has been lit U,a 6ione there. The old timers haunt ed the region for it's placer mining, but | when the placers were exhausted they abandoned it. During the long lapse the White and Red Picachos have been familiar to but few persons, wild an- imalS having almost full sway IA few mining men who have been there within the last few months say it is one of the iwildest and most seques- tered spots they have ever seen. But the immense g'cssan cap which traverse the ranges at several places today. MT Holland says that great are expected to take place in that region before the lapse of many months.
 FROM THE BRADSHAWS. Mar shall Young. who has been in town for a few days. furnishes the latest intel ligence regarding the Crowned King mine. The company is still maintain ing precautions against a discovery of the value of the ore being taken out. It is not likely that the rich vein dis covered a few mcnthS ago has been for the same careful meth eds are observed and no employe is given an opportunity to learn the true character of the mine or the ore.
