The Drought In Missouri.

DR.. T. II. Craven, of this city. is
just in receipt Of letter from his
elder brother, Mr.. G. W. Craven of
Crab Orchard, Ray county, Missouri,
and who resides on the old homestead
which was taken up in 1893. Mr.
Craven tells of the severity of the
drought in his section of the state,
and says he has never known such a
dry spell before. The wheat crop
was fine, but aside from that all else
seems doomed to destruction. The
corn even with plentiful moisture
from this time forward can only he
expected to make fair fodder. Pota-
toes and all root crops are wiped out.
Gardens. meadows and hay lands are
dried up, and the fruit is shriveling
and dropping from the trees. MIR.
Craven is cutting down young sap
lings to feed his stock so as to save
their lives. Cattle and hogs have
shrunk in value from one half to two
thirds within the past few weeks. Mr.,
Craven's farm is about 30 miles
northeast of Kansas City.

Mines and Minerals of Arizona

Citizen. In an interview MT. Giliet. said:
 Already three miles of the narrow gauge road. which runs from the mine to the smelter. have been completed anI the first load of ore was run over this line last week. It taps about five mines. Seven miles additional track age is in course of construction, the grading on it being completed. It wih connect with the Cobre Grande and the Orc Grande mines
 The broad gauge railroad has been completed from Naco to a point sixteen miles south Of that place. A station will be established there and supplies will be hauled from this station instead of from Naco. The remaining distar ce of twenty miles has been graded and the road is in course of construction.
 At Cananea, a new Mitchell blast furnace is being installed making q battery of three in all. Three addi- tional furnaces have been ordered. Most of the machinery has been received for a new concentrating pant and it is well under way A two story brick hotel and a two story building have been con- structed also. The company now pro duces about s75.OO0 worth of bullion every month and employs 1000 men. It promises to rival Bisbee as copper producing camp.

The Western Mining World calls at tention to delusion among old timers in Butte Mont. that is common in all mining camps. namely: the tendency to discreiit opportunities for gain which the mines in the immediate vicinity offer and so rush off to distant parts. aIlurei by reports of fabulous mineral discoveries, which rarely prove true. The World says: About three times a year some Weary Willie, long on the usual story of a mineral discovery. lands in Butte It generally takes him about ten days to land a few suckers and away they go. The trips are peri lous and without result. If these same would-be mine hunters were ap- proached by any one of a number of reliable prospectors from any one ot the adjacent fields of Montana they could not get a two-bit lunch. but pre- sent to them something thousands of miles away, in an inaccessible country. and the entire expense of the trip will be gladly borne. It is truly stated that Butte money goes to all parts of the world, and it is just as true that nearly every producing mine in the Butte dis trict has been opened up by outside capital. Another statement that is hard to believe. but it is nevertheless true, ii that there is not an original stockhol?- CT in Butte today holding shares in her wonderful mines.

DEEPER DEVELOPMENT.

Captain F. F. Friant has accepted a position with the Castle Dome mining company and will superintend exten- sive development of the famous old lead mines, proposed by MT. Luce. It is the intention to sink the main working shaft which is now 450 feet. 100 feet deeper and open up new working levels. The primary object in sinking the shaf. deeper is to secure a better supply os water for concentrating purposes. It is also believed that the extent and rich ness of the ore body will increase below the water level, which is characteristic with lead mines. MT. F'riant is a prac- tical and experienced mining man an! will render the company good service Yuma Sun.

HEDGES MINES REPORTED SOLD.

HEDGES MINES REPORTED SOLD.
 The report has been current here this week that the Hedges gold mines have been sold for $1, ,250. 900. These mines are located about twenty-five miles west of Yuma and have yielded immense wealth in the yellow metal. a great deal of which, however has been ex- D nded in high priced litigation. The property has been in the hands of a re- ceiver for a long time. Two stamp mills are in operation at Hedges. one hun dred and the other a sixty stamp mill. There is q large cyanide plant there. and several hundred men are employ ed. It is familiarly known as Gold Pock camp. and is one of the noted mining properties of California.-Sen- tinel.

showing as rapidly as possible. A new tunnel has been started about sixty feet above the lower tunnel, and when this new work has progressed sufh- ciently the two tunnels will be connect ed with winzes and the ore blocked out. A winze will also be sunk from the lower tunnel. George Rinehart is in charge and has eight or nine men working.
 The Gibsons have fine showing also. They are running two drifts from the bottom of their 10O-foot shaft and both drifts are in good ore. which is being sacked for shipment.
 A. Abernathy and F. l.. Toombs are working on the Little Man claim. which adjoins the Gibson property. Pasqual Nigro is interested with them in the Little Man. They have run two tuu- nels. sixty and seventy feet in length respectively. These tunnels are run on the ledge and the lower one Is in ore all the way. and in an uprise at the end of the drift there is three feet of ore, about forty per cent of which is high grade shipping ore.
 Adjoining the claims being developed by the Copper Hill syndicate. are eight claims, some of them owned by and others bonded to R. J. Williams and Frank Westbrook. These show up well for the amount of work done.
 Ed and John Whelan own a group of eight claims in the immediate vicinity and these are no less promising
 The section is attracting much atten- ton and the visits of mining men are of almost daily occurrence. giving rise to rumors of new deals about to be consummated.
