 Beside that there is owned in- cluded in these holdings some 4,000 acres of land, well wooded with a good growth of oak and pine, suffi- cient to supply fuel and mining timbers for long period.

 THE ORGANIZATION.
 For the reasons above outlined the properties have been taken over by the Bufa Mining, Milling & Smelling Company, an Arizona corporation in which have been in- terested a number of heavy capital ists in California, who have taken hold with a will and determination to make it a grand success and one of the greatest enterprises in Sono- ra. The head office of the company is 709-710 Lankershim Building Los Angeles, California.
 The officers are Davis Richard son, president, Los Angeles; w. k. Richardson, vice-president and general manager, La Bufa, Sonora, Mexico; Baron w. Riley, secretary, Los Angeles; Louis Richardson, treasurer, Los Angeles; Thos. F. Wilson, resident agent, Tucson; Lawler & Allen, attorneys, Los An geles. F. A. Hartman is director.
 With q personal acquaintance of a majority of the gentlemen named and personal knowledge of the described, TIE OASIS editor predicts that the Bufa Min ing, Milling x Smelling Company, of Sonora, Mexico, will prove one of the most substantial and suc- cessful mining enterprises of the twentieth century.

ing $l75,000 in dividends to the fortunate owners. The results ac- complished have been realized under adverse circumstances Freight costs $23 per ton to the railroad and $l0 thence to the shelter. All the available horses and mules in the country are em- ployed in the service. The ore production far exceeds the facilities for shipment and reduction, and the ore reserves are constantly in- creasing in extent, magnitude and value. The property has reached a point where larger and more

proved to that depth. Shelter re-
 turns through many months of
 time in the reduction of vast quan-
 titles of ore, show values of from
 320 to 355 ounces of silver per ton eleven to thirteen per cent lead and eleven per cent copper. Of those values, a large part now lost in transportation and working with inadequate machinery and upon a small scale, can be saved by in- stalling more and better machinery and operating upon a scale and commensurate with that of the property

 DEVELOPMENT WORK.
 Through the Bufa group there run three parallel veins, named La Bufa, Colorado and Papache.
 Through the Prieta de Santa Rosa group there runs the ledge from which the group is named.
 Upon the main chute in the Bufa group, working shaft has been sunk 300 feet, cutting the ledge be- tween the second and third levels. Upon the first level there are 800 feet of drift on the ledge; upon the second level there is a drift POO feet on the ledge; upon the third level there is an 800 foot drift, also on the ledge. Below the third level winzes penetrate the ore bodies to further depth of 200 feet, making a total depth attained of 800 feet, all in ore, and solid ore in place be- tween all the workings.
 MACHINERY, ETC.
 At La Bufa mine there are To- H. P. hoisting engine, a 30-H. F. engine, 25-H. P. boiler, concen- trating plant with two rock break CTS, one six-compartment jig, office building, commissary and mining supply store, carrying a S20,000 stock of goods, and commodious wareho uses and bunk houses.
 The company have en route a heavier hoisting engine and boiler for a new shaft, which machinery will be on the ground and ready for operation early in September.
 Upon the Santa Rosa group there are 5000 feet of work, with necessary buildings, a whim, etc.
 One half mile south of this group, at the town of Santa Rosa, the property includes a modern con centrating and teaching mill, with a daily capacity of handling twenty tons of ore. It includes rock breakers and Cornish rolls, five

Fighting Lizasds

The ring-necked lizard Of the Arizona
deserts II not q mere devourer Of weak
lngs. He IL always ready to fight.
whether he IL challenged by another or
cornered by q man. When brought to
bay in some hole, he opens his jaws.
and dashes bravely out, swapping at
everything which opposes him and %
fierce and sudden is his rush that 1t Is
impossible to face 1t without fiinching.
By holding two Of these lizards loosely
by the small Of the back and allowing
their heads to clash as they struggle
to escape, one may be able to induce
combats such as must occur every day
in the desperate lizard world.
Forgetting that they were captives.
they would seize upon each other and
vent their thwarted rage to the utmost
in a fight which but for timely inter-
ference would doubtless lead to the
death of one or the other. Such bull
dog pugnacity is rather unlocked for In
lizards, but a student of character
could easily read in the set jaw and
pouched throat of this species the signs
of fighting blood.-Country Life.

 Letters from others tel Cf the pre- gress of the prospecting Scing on. One party found groupings of a quartz ledge some five miles from S. Nicholas, saT- ples of which were sent to Nome. The assGy retWpcd showed an average of S24. 80 to the ton.
 Judging from reports the members of the expedition seem very well pleased; ; they have provided themselves with reindeer, dogs, sleds and plenty of furs, aDd will no doubt spend the winter very comfortably.

ONE PAN WORTH $300|
Taken From Seiffert & Gib= sons Claim, Alder Creek.

Adam Johnson. ex-court 0rier, has 'hench at the forks of Gold Run and he believes that it is going to be winnar, as pay in the benches is found on both sides of him. MT. Johnson is very much pleased and is going to extend his visit for some time instead Of re- turning to Nome, as was his intention last week. He says ''Seifferts' claim will be another Hot Air claim and will produce as much of the yellow metal"
 The city is full of rpmors in relation to the rival ditch and Hume companies, and one of the companies thinks the other is trying tO stop them from work ing by appropriating all the water in order to keep any from getting into the ditch: but the writer has been over the ground aud finds that the water is being used for legitimate mining purposes even though it works a hardship on some, and stops day work on one of the; best claims in the district. There is no doubt hut the matter will come tOa ihead within the near future and serious trouble will arise over it, that Is if the rumOrs are, correct.
 Mir. Walker, on IgloO creek, is doing first rate and the men shOveiing into the boxes, as q rule, pick up more than their wages during the days run, but they have to wait for water, as the pay is up near the head where there Is little or no water, only after d heavy rain.

They have .)Iessure enough to sluice off the whole nil: ii they had the proper hose, but even with @anvas hose, and Il long joint Of four-inch iron pipe as a substitute fora nozzle, they are keeping quite a number of men working.

'-Sullivanteiity, Sept. -5.-The bannsr hpan of the district was taken from the l.bench belonging to the creek claim at ? the mouth Of Alder creek, owned by , the Seifert brothers, Saturday morn- i ing. It contained over s3o0, and of the ;ssmount some S6o were nuggets. The ypan was taAen from a out where they had been ground sluicing .over night. ..0Aessrs. -Gibsen 6 'Dieter, who are ,:working the claim, noticed . deposit.o of .gdld nssr the sntrsnse.Oi: the hume box send tsdk psn 'totry'it with the above ,sresufts. The day before Mir. Gibson, with his 'eagle eye," picked up 2 mug 1get worth over s4O from the face of the ..cut in which they were ground sluic- ing. It seems as if Gus Seiffert was sright when he said that "they had just fiound the main paystreak.
 There is a numor in ,the city that iHarry Hill. of the Bluestone Mining company, ,.Of Chicago, has located the
 psystreak on the claim which he has ;;been sinkinga shaft for the past two seasons. There seems to be no doubt ; as to his men finding pay, and it has !, leaked cut from one of the men work ring, though it comes second handed to the writer. The pay was found at a depth of one hundred and fifteen feeV,
 at which depth they struck rim of 'bedrOck and are now drifting instead of
 sinking. This find will prove to be of
 much value to the camp for it will Ipause the claim owners in the near ,.rxicinity to go to- work, which up to the present time was out of the question

 such depth wastOO great.
