 deal on Saturday in which he dispos- ed of two mines owned by him and
 the Kittie mine, owned by c. A. Dake,
 to Michigan parties for S7,50O. The
 mines are only partially developed.
 Mir. Conner still owns some good
 properties on Groom creek, which he
 says he proposes to develop.
 The Sonora Mining and Milling
 company have within the last week
 put to work an additional crew of
 twent men. They are going right
 along with their development work,
 and as the management is in good
 hands, good results may be looked
 for. This property is largely owned
 and controlled by R. A. Lewis, E. B.
 Gage, Con O'Keefe, O. O. Saxhang
 and John Dessart. It is situated
 about seventy miles from Nogales
 and is in the Altar district in Mexico.
 It gives excellent promise of being
 one of the greatest silver producing
 mines that was ever opened.-Ga-

 c. H. Hemming who is working the
 Gopher mine under bond and lease, was in town today. He says the mine is in fine condition. Since taking charge of it on June 1 Mir. Hemming has shipped two carloads of good grade ore.

The Gopher mine has two shafts on it each 250 feet deep and about 250 feet apart, being connected by means of drift.

 The McCabe Extension folks re- port very satisfactory progress being made in the development of their The shaft is now down 20 feet, and in the bottom of the shaft the ledge is streaked its entire width with sulphuret ore, while there is good strong body of sulphurets on both the hanging wall and foot wall. The results are very much better than has been anticipated to get at this depth and they are ac- greatly encouraged.

 W. H. Ferguson and Charles Wal ace have returned from trip of two 1T three weeks on mining business in he southwestern part of this county nd the northeastern part of Yuma ounty. When asked what discover es they had made, Mir. Ferguson re- ,lied that incidentally they had run cross a big streak of the hottest weather he had ever experienced. At TysoD's Wells, he said a thermometer ocated in the coolest place they could ind registered from l24 to 126 in the hade. In spite of the heat though le said that there was marked activ- ty in mining in every section they lad visited. The only place where he hot weather had been taken into and mining operations was at Mir. Hubbard's Har- Iua Hala mine. He says that Mir. Hubbard has been working a very ich mine just about a mile north of he famous property from which the place derived it's name. Just as soon Is the weather moderates he will con inue work on it. Besides this prop ,rty two others are being worked here with good success. They ex- ended their trip almost to the King ,f Arizona mine, which is still run hing in full blast, yielding a large mount of rich ore. O. E. Runner, he 'ays, has the making of a fortune in l mine at Desert Well. He has an ore body from three to four feet wide which averages $40 per ton the entire width. Mir. Ferguson says the des- ert country is coming to the front as much as the mountains, in the gener- Il, mining prosperity of the territory.
