 some beautiful specimens of native
 copper ore which were taken from tn,
 Vulcan mine, owned by Rudkin anC
 Savage on Copper creek. Mir. Rob
 erts' company, known as the Copper
 Creek Consolidated Copper company
 owns the first extension of the Vulcan

 ore in their property. Mir. Robert:
 also reports that John Neiman i:
 shipping a car load of copper glance
 from his claims on Copper creek tc
 the Val Verde smelter.
 T. G. Norris has closed deal with
 D. J. Jones whereby the Yarnell
 mine will be worked again. Frank
 R. Biedler is at present the owner of
 the property. It Is announced that
 development work will be commenced
 at once on the property on large
 scale. It is already a pretty well de
 veloped mine and it should not re-
 quire a great outlay of money to
 place it on a paying basis. It is said
 that large bodies of ore are known to exist in the mine. There was quite a good sized camp there at one time and the present indications are that there will be a much larger one.
 A letter received yesterday by C.. NJ. Zander, Secretary of the Arizona Exploration and Development con- pany, from W. Pomeroy, the com pany field representative and dated at Bowie, brings encouraging news. Mir. Pomeroy has been prospecting in the Chiricahua range, where he says there is a large mineral belt in which copper and lead seem to pre- dominate. He says there are many prospectors at work, but little depth has been attained as yet. Myers and Walker have shipped several carloads of lead ore which gave good returns. Ruby Haddon, formerly of Goldfeld, has a good property aud Mir. Pome- roy says he found many claims that he believes will prove rich with pro per development. Chris Grauer is putting in a Huntington mill with two concentrators on lead property at the head of Pinnery canyon thirty miles south of Bowie. Mir. Pomeroy has his eye on one or two good prop critics, in fact, has partially negotiated for a bond on one in the name of his company. After further prospecting in the Chiricahua range he expects to take trip through Skeleton valley. Republican.

The purchasers have had an option on the for the last ninety days, their time expiring yesterday. The new company have a good mining adjoining and they were very anxious to secure this by reason ,f it's nearness and its probable value. During the life of their bond they the ore freely and are satis- jed that they have a bargain. Fear ng that their bond would ex- oire before the deal was con they came down to Nickersburg Sunday and drove out nto the country after Samuel Frank. in the father of Mrs. Gardner and vho has superintended the develop nent work on the mine, and brought Jim to Phenix to assist in completing he transaction.
