neCid CO. VIII De lu lOmDStOue WIJu-
 in few days to enter into negotiation
 for the bonding of the Martin Cos
 tell0 group of mines in Bisbee. If
 this deal is consumated it will be one
 of the largest mining sales in the ter
 ritory. Eleven claims are included
 in the group and the price is authori-
 tatively given at $500, 900 with ten per
 cent cash payment. This sale would
 mean much for Cochise county and
 especially for Bisbee.
 Gazette: Speaking of the King of
 Arizona in Yuma county, Col. Ran dolph, one of the principal owners, re- gently said: "The development of the mine is contained in tunnels and shafts aggregating l,S00 feet. The vein has been exposed to a deptb of over 200 feet and a cross-cut on the vein or vein ma1ter has been made sixty feet. We have several grades of ore in our workings. There is fifteen feet of S20 ore and several sJringers ranging over the slOO mark"
 Enterprise: There is a good deal of activity at the Ray mine, eight miles northeast of Riverside in pinal county, where an English company has sixty men employed and prepara- tions are making to increase the force to 400 men in the near future. There Is concentrator at the mine and re- duction works on the river below. The ore runs high in gold but the bulk is copper. A man who returned from that district yesterday, says there is much excitement and de- mand for both horses and men.
 Graham Bulletin: Thos. L. Darby, a mining expert of Denver, Colorado, was in Solomonville, this week and visited the Ash Peak mining district, where he succeeded iu getting bond on the group of mines owned by R B. Adams and II. L. Bishop. MT. Oar by secured many samples Of the ore from the surface and shafts and on his return here expressed himself as highly pleased with the mineral out look in the Ash Peak district and was enthusiastic over the mines On which he secured bond. It now looks like an important mining camp is assured in the Ash Peak dis trict.
 Journal Miner: Early last week mining man on Groom creek concluded to develop a sufficient supply Of water near his cabin for domestic purposes, and accordingly let contract to sink a well thirty feet deep. The other day the work was completed and the owner thought he would go below and size up the work and measure the water. He accepted the work, and noticing vein of quartz zcross-cutting the well concluded to take sample and assay 1t. He was simply dumb founded to pick up button of gold that gave a valuation of s23S per ton in free gold, and says now that he will do little drifting and go with out water. The vein is strong one. he says, and with development may run into bonanza.
 Gazette: The Jones group of cop per mines at Castle Creek. worked by q Detroit corporation and immediate ly adjoining Dr. FOrd's Copperopolis is making very favorable showing. The shaft which is down 250 feet. intersected the vein at l65 feet and trayersed it in the shaft for a distance of 75 feet. The pitch is
 st1 Il q l.. of.&<
The oasis., 1899-09-09

Jones group turning out to be a very valuable mine could not be more favorable, and the good showing at the mine foreshadows brilliant future for the Copperopolis district.
 Jerome News: It is not general known, but it is nevertheless a fact, that tellurium ore has been found in the Black Hills, and within tive miles from Jerome, on the east slope of the mountains. This information was given to news representative by one who is an expert and assayer of good standing. This gentleman, some short time ago, manufactured pair of cuff buttons out of piece 0. tellu- rum float" picked up in or near the Black caiIon, south of Jerome. That such ore existed in this district has been, up to this time, known to but a very few. There bas been some pr0s- pecting done in that neigh hborhood for this ore, but as yet there has not been a ledge of it discovered. There are some prospectors now in the field hunting for 1t.
