group of mines near Jerome from F. F. Jordan and Thos. Campbell. Col Bosworth has been working the claims for some time under bond and they have shown up ore in such quantity and quality that he has decided to purchase.
 Journal -Miner: A vein of ore four feet wide running parallel to the one which has been worked to the Rchen- bar claim, has deen discovered recent ly by Mir. Middleton. who is operating the property. The vein promises to be as valuable for the ore it contains as the original vein. MT. Middleton is putting up additional machinery on the property.

Holmes that he had just met the sup erintendent of the company that is preparing Co erect shelter on TontO creek, and the superintendent in- formed him 1t would be built and put in operation this coming spring. With shelter on Tonto creek, Tonto Basin would be very lively mining country.
 Journal Miner: MT. Underhill, who had charge of the Big Bug onyx prop critics at Mayer. returned last evening from visit to London and Glasgow and went out to Mayer this morning. It is understood that work on the ab ve property will soon be resumed and that extensive machinery will be erected for preparing the onyx for shipment right at the quarry. Ow- ing to the large perce ntage of waste 1t was found impracticable to ship the onyx east as it comes from the quarry.

The roads leading to the works are in bad condition and the supply of onyx at the Indian school polishing works has been limited on that ac- count. If some way is arranged for the easy transportation of the rough rock to the school from the quarry, the authorities believe that worK will prove grand success and source of income to the school.
