Mines and MininQ

Der Su.phlde appears at slight depth.
 The development Of the claims con-
 si5ts of one shaft twenty-five feet and
 cnc forty feet. The hanging wall has
 been encountered in porphyry but the foot wall is still an undiscovered quail
 tity. There is a rich body Of ore con-
 t2.ning streaks of rich sulohide orc
 and gangue matter impregnated with copper carbonate The wagon road
 built from Willcox to the Grand Reef
 mine is but a short distance, and the
 San Carlos station cn the G. V. q. &
 N. railroad is not mere than eighteen
 miles distant, so that ample outlet is
 provided for the product cf these
 claims when they are opened up as producers.
 Deer Creek finds it's source among
 ti.e pines Of this mountain and r111s southwesterly through a rich copper basin to the ArivaEpa river. In this basin there is scarcely any develop ment although prolific butcroppings of 1nine-alized leads can be seen on al sides. Towards the west is the Stan. ley Butte and the noun tain which con- tains the Grand Reef is on the south and farther on appears the GalIiera range and the Tabie Mountain. Tho Mammoth gold mine is but fifty miies to the southwest of this district, and beyond Stanley Butte to the west are the Mescal mountains. The Pinal range forms the northwest border of this mineral zone, and the Santa Teresa range takes a diagonal course across the zone from be northeast tci tie southwest. In ti4is Deer Creek basin is found porpyry, lime and leads of quartz, and here and there the C'dtcToEringS of s-me lead show COppei- stains. But the development has but begun here and the wealth If the basin is yet to be revealed by the and minec.
 Higher up than the ranch of Uncle Billy Alibriton is that of L. L. Wight, who owns the MarblaAead group of copper claims which were a few days ago ,bonded to P. J. Cole of Phoenix These claims are in the Arivaipa dis tFict jusc outside the San Carlos strip. The Ercokin and Be.so claims, which were also bonded by MT Cole, are near by, and there are other promising prospects in that neighbcrh3Od. Tic Wight ranch is also prettily located n a wide canyon and a few hundred fec from the ranch house is what is called Bear WaLcsw. In these mountains arc found black bear, cinnamon, silver tip and the grizzly and they come to this place to w3.lcw in the water which flows through a wash. A few days ago

MINERAL FIELD ON TRIAL.

The mining men and miners eff Har- shaw, Washington and other mining camps in the Patagonia mountains are intensely interested in the hearing now being had before the land cour1, which involves the title of tfle San Rafael de "a Z3nja land claim It is stated that under the first or original claim made by MexicanEs in early days who asserted title to an alleged grant that less than 10000 acres were ccm- pTiscd in their claim, which, according to the ml-numents, would not reach or. touch any Of the mineral districts. Hence the establishment of mining districts, and the locating and devel. opment Of mines without let or hind- rance, prior to the present claimants coming into possession
 A large number Of mines were nat eated by the United States tc, their owners, some as far back as twenty i've years ago. As an illustration; 1 ne Belmont patent was issued in 1873, .the San Antonio and the Guai2- lote patents in 1876. the Empire in IoEl, the Enterprise in 1878. the Silver Fell in 1881, and the Alta in 1884 since the issuance of these patents a number of others have been issued. among them the Hermosa, Sa1yado" ana Bluff mines and patents applied ief cn the Duquesne group and Paw master mines. Alp of these palantes! mines are within the boundaries of the enlarged area of the land claim. There has been thousands upon thousands Of dollars expended rpaso4, mines in these districts. many of them teoay being large producers. and oth- CTS will sC2n be. Some Of them are held by men who have been in the d!strfct fer quarter of a century. otaGfs or these mines have been worked for much longer time.

There are copper veins in this contact of lime and p0rphyry, but there is scarcely any development. The mountain slopes at about 35 degrees and with numerous draws affords an excellent place for tunnel mining.

Mineral Strip District.
 Abortion Ranch, San Carlcs Mineral Strip, May 13.-CSpooial ccrrespond- enoe of The Republican. .)-This is the ltome of Uncle Billy Allbriton It is located in the mountains over s 900 feet above the level of the sea in the midst of pines and juripers. The SHOW has but just melted and spring time has wrapped the hills in robes of green and b1l5ught to the rancher that CompeinsatiCn which comes to those who live in the north in the sharp contrast Of winter and spring. This is an experience which the people Cf t.1e valleys never feel. The winters up here are severe and the snolw fills the canyons and hil-sides for weeks and weeks at a time. But spring is here now and the visitor from the val lnys below can feel the thrill which it brings in the bursting of nature into a joyous season. From the crest of 2 great granite mountain which separ- atcs the Mount Turnbull district of the strip from the Deer Creek and Stanley Rutte districts the trail drops down t0 the nook in the hills which contains this ranch home. There is 6 spring here of the purest water which Uncle Billy has used with success in carrying cut a miniature irrigation project 4 patch of rich ground fertflized by silr from the mountain sides affords Q garden spot, and the water fron the spring is carried in a small lateral which is raised so that the water drops into the lands below and covers Jhs entire patch of garden ground, run ming through furrowS and down the bcrder of the garden to the waste ditch at the farther end. Lettuce, onions, peas, and beans are planted and they have begun tc sproub above the ground and give promise of scon pro- viding the table of Uncle Billy All b1iton with a bountiful supply of ga-- den truck.
 Beside the spring a monument is built which contains specimens of ores from the Arivaipa district, where Uncle Billy owns the Sunset and Azur- ite copper mines.
