 There is much activity in mining at Mineral Park. The turquoise mines are working quite a force of men and are turning out large product of the crude gems. Near the Ithica Peak Capt. Conkey has opened up a body of good gem stones and will soon be | shipping to the lapidary. James w. Haas is working several men on his claims and making regular shipments to New York. At the Lady Bug mine there are four men at work hoisting water and timbering up the old shaft. | They will soon be at work on the ore and expect to make large shipments Kingman Miner.

 Cochise county can furnish the big gest mining deals in the territory if not in the west, and is conclusive evil dence of our contention that Cochise county is the banner mining county in the territory. As an instance it is cited that mining deed filed for re- cord in the recorders office this week involves a consideration of Sl,6o0.O 1 This is the property the Calumet X Arizona Co. acquired from the Lake Superior X Western development Co.,. and known as the Costello group, ad- joining the Copper Queen at Bisbee. 1 The deed carries with it revenue stamps to the extent of Sl600. A bond of the South Bisbee Co. properties in the same district to Glasgow syndicate for s, ,225, 900 has just been ratified by the company. This company owns 50 claims and the bond extends to Septem- Der lst. The Tombstone deal, invol- wing the purchase and operating of | the mines of this famous district will foot over S2, GOO, 900 and there are quite few other million dollar properties in this county.--Tombstone Prospector.
