Oil Fields in Prescott.

The oil land locating craze has reached pretty close to Prescott. It is stated that several hundred acres of alleged oil land has been located in Willow creek basin, about three or four miles northwest of the town. The basin is of a sedimentary formation, surrounded by wall of granite, indi- eating that one time it was lake of water. The land has previously been located for coal, but no work of any consequence was ever done towards prospecting it thoroughly. The late Paul Loske claimed to have been driven by gas out of shaft he was sinking for coal. A sandstone quarry, from which large amount of build- ing stone has been taken, Is also loca- ted in the basin. Limestone, shale and slate are also found there, and 1t is claimed that there is spring Tn the basin which gives out oil at times. Some who have made a study of Willow creek basin seem to think there is a better show for striking oil there than in any other place Tn the county, while in sinking 1t would also solve the problem as to whether there is a body of coal underlying the basin, as is still believed by many.

 Important proposals relative to the surrender of all the insurgents m the Philippines has been made by Aguin- aldo, through General MacArthur, to the United States. The proposals were brought before the cabinet meeting and at its conclusion instructions in reply to them were sent by Secretary Root. The president will not bargain with Aguinaldo, but if the prisoner will use his influence the United States will welcome his aid and will consider his conduct when determin- ing the future of the prisoner.

Mining Intelligence.

A successful gold dredger, operated on a small scale. is at work in Mohave county, just below Eldorado canyon, on the Arizona side of the river The power is furnished by a current wheel and is therefore without any further expense than the attention required. The plant is only experimental, the power being not over ten horse with buckets which do not hold more than a water bucket, attached to an endless chain, but even with this rig the own CTS are cleaning up Sl per hour and the dirt is proved to be worth 50 cents per yard. The dredge sets in the riyer, at a point where the government pnce constructed a wing dam. The gold is very fine, but a system of plates which the operators invented themselves, saves it. The success of this venture will probably be the fore runner to many more such IOdertak- Mobave Miner,

of examining the Clifford mines. In a conversation with a representative of the Journal Miner, Mir. Young said: 'Nothing for the past twenty five years has so surprised me as the result of my examination of these mines. The marvellous richness and the immense bodies of ore being un- covered in the Great Belcher and Rebel mines exceed anything have seen since the halcyon days of the Comstock lode. In both these mines the expert is almost bewildered at the great bodies of glistening ore as he traverses the tunnels and drifts, and what surprises him most is that with these stupendous bodies in sight the work of Mir Clifford is still going down, still sinking on the great veins and at intervals running out drifts, farther revealing the immense ledges which in both mines widen cOntinu- ously as tue sinking is extended"

was substantial endorsement Of the
production which has entered upon a
record breaking season. And Il will not
be at all surprising II II relegates all
other records to the rear as the audi
ence last night drew very lightly upon
the regular theater-going public. That
part of the community, or much Of IL,
has bought tickets for later perform
ances. This reversal Of the natural or
der Of things is not a little surprising
and Is accounted for only from the fact
that the story is one that appeals 20
and is approved by the religious ele-
ment. To what extent this element was
represented may be judged from re-
marks such as these which were fire.

NEW ORE pULvERIzER.
Invented for the Purpose of Doing
Away With Stamp Mills.

The Seattle Post-Intellgencer gives
an account OF a new ore pulverizing
plant which was tested a few days ago
and found to be very successful. The
purpose of the machine Is to pulverlze
gold bearing and other valuable ores
into so minute a form that the values
can easily be extracted II does It's
work so well that a microscope IL said
to be necessary to distinguish the fine
particles. In this work 1t Is designed
10 take the place OF the cumbersome
and weighty stamps now In use on most
free milling properties.
The ore which IL to he treated Is first
placed In an ordinary rock crusher
where II is reduced TO pieces about the
size OF peas. From this crusher II Is
carried automatically in an elevator TO
two small hoppers, which pour II into
the steel box where the crushing Is
done. The ore runs down In two small
streams at opposite ends Of the box.
Each OF these streams Is caught by a
let OF steam, which is under 100 pounds
pressure, and is shot toward the center
Of the box at speed OF 5000 feet a
second. The result Is that the two
streams OF ore meet with an impact
Of 6,000 feet a second. The shock Is
so great that every particle Of the rock
IL shattered into atoms. The fine dust
thus formed Is drawn up by suction
power into large bin, the power being
so delcately arranged that II will not
lift any stray pieces Of ore which may
have escaped the collision.

In THE INTEREST OF GAME.
Senate Committee Told Why II Should
and Why II Shouldn't.

The committee on Fish and Game Of
the Senate held an open meeting yester-
day and listened TO reasons why they
should and why they should not pass
the Allison game bill. Martin earn of
Salt Lake avowed that the present law
would be very satisfactory with a few
minor amendments, He did not think
that citizen should be amenable 70
the law II he has Ia his possession fish
or game during the prohibited season.
He also spoke In favor Of putting
screens In irrigation bitches. He fur
Their said that the throwing Of sawdust
In streams destroys more fish eggs than
any other one thing. Mr. earn was I'm
favor OF taxing hunters and fishers out
side Of the State $40 each for using guns
and rods here, as the States OF Idaho
and Wyoming do, He thought that Il
would prove Go be a revenue Of $1,000 20
the state annually
Mr.. earn also wanted to have the
duck season closed In January ana
February and opened In March. and n
law should be passed forbidding the ey.
portation of fish or game from the
State at any time.
Mr.. Perry Of Brigham City didn't ike
the provision In Senator Allison's hin
requiring a license Of 50 from an per-
sons hunting or fishing. He said that
there were many farmers who could
not pay that amount OF money for each
OF their boys. Boys should be taught
to shoot, for II might be OF value 10
their country some day. Mr. Perry al
luded 10 the Boer war as an example
or how an Inferior people In point OF
