 Eureka, Dec. ?, (Ed. Journal Mner:) Times are looking very en couraging for the Eureka mine own CTS, more men being employed a work at present in these hills thai ever before in its history. J. H. Oar rah of Prescott and others have quit, a force of men working on thei Treasure Hill group of mines nea Copper creek, the showings looking good in Copper, gold and silver Colin Timmons has several mer working on the famous King" alsC on the road preparatory to putting ir ahoist and other machinery for de veloping same on a large scale MT. Timmons is developing g bonanza in the King, an average sample of eighteen feet going 164 per cent copper A stayer is all that is needed to make a paying mine in Eureka district. Messrs LawleI & Wells have men scattered through the hills from their famous Hillside mine to their Skunk canyon proper ties doing development work, also have two eight horse teams hauling supplies in and ore out to Hillside station for shipment.
 John Neiman has had a very liberal offer made him by some Colorado Springs capitalists who put in sev- eral days examining and sampling his very valuable properties. While he did not tell the writer the offer he talked as if he would accept the same. MT. Neiman's property has paid its way from the grass roots, and the waste dump samples seven per cent copper, so to speak.
 Messrs Noge and Bauder have a force of men working on their prop critics under the supervision of Mir. Bauder Sr., these gentlemen having acquired full interest in their Copper creek mines, buying J. W. Lind, their third partner, out. They not only own one of the largest groups but one of the best in the district.
 J. H. Hise contemplates running the Monte Carlo tunnel in 150 feet further, it now being in 175 feet. by which time, judging from surface in dications he will be fixed for life.
 The Copper Creek Consolidated company have everything arranged to begin work the present month, when the shaft now started will be sunk to depth of 250 feet. The company are offering a limited amount of shares for ten cents a share for de- velopment purposes. When this property is opened up it alone will warrant the building of a railroad. With a railroad Eureka district will be one of the greatest producers in the territory, it having produced now several hundred thousand dollars, when transported by wagons and pack trains.
 Messrs Rudkins & Savage are peg ging away making every foot count. The time is not far distant when their part of the district will be another Butte. Messrs Prahan and Shultz have a six inch streak of S80.00 ore besides quite a body of low grade at the depth of IS feet. They are go- ing to run her down 100 feet with an Armstrong hoist, when they will show up another Congress. Messrs. Gods mark and Ferris of Los Angeles have taken hold of Newman and McCol- lough's properties, on or near the Mojave county line, and are pushing work vigorously. These properties have been thoroughly tested by aras- tra and cyanide processes, so success is inevitable. A question will be in- volved in the near future as to the location of said claims, some now claiming them in Mojave, while others in Yavapai county. What's the matter with the county dads of both counties sending in their surveyors and set ting the matter right now.

 Pete Sorenson is running his dry washer with good results. He has also bought out John Roberts in the Arastra King mining claim and con templates putting up an arastra shortly to crush some D or 100 tons of Arastra ore already piled up.
 Messrs. Phelps of Colorado Springs and Bean of Phenix have a car load of ore, which is being hauled by Sanders teams to the railroad fol shipment out of Hoosier Girl, claim they have under bond and lease from Phillips x Feast of Santa Maria, a three ton test of said ore netting the former gentleman S45 per ton. The Dillon Bros. are working on the Par, nell group near Hillside mine, it be ing one of the extensions of the Hill side, so they just as good as have their stake made.
