ABOUT THE
ORC GRANDE:.
Over 5000 Feet Of Work Done
On this Wonderfully Large
and Rich Ore Deposit.
The First Block OF
Stock Now on Sale.

1t has been some time since the
News-Herald has made extended
mention Of the Orc Grande and as
we are receiving many letters re-
garding the bonanza gold property
Of Arizona, it will not be out of
place to tell what is and has been
done.
The property is located a miles
north Of Wickenburg, Immediately
south of the immense igneous dyke
which cuts across the country for
several miles east and west. Since
discovering the rich deposit over
year ago, at depth OF about 80
feet, the owners have gone ahead
with the development work and
sank a shaft over 800 feet deep, and
with the drifts and crosscuts on the
different levels, have done over
5000 feet of work, opening up what
is conceded to be one the greatest
gold discoveries Of recent years.
Caie eful measurements made some
time since by competent mining
engineers show over 100000 tons
OF ere blocked out and ready to be
taken out for the mill, when erect
ed, which will be some time during
the coming year.
Like all famous mines, many
absurd stories have been told con
oei 42g the ore values in the Orc
Gr- e. AS in all large deposits,

NOT FOUND
There Are More Big Mines in
This Section That Await
Discovery.
The Prospects May
Make Big Mines

The prospect of today may be a
mine tomorrow, for mines are
made, not found, says the Pros
pector. One often hears Of a search
being made by heavy capitalists
for big producing mines, and yet,
Of late, the tendency is to make in
vestments in promising prospects
with view Of developing them
into paying propositions; and it
has been demonstrated, time and
time again, that more money is to
be made by this nrethod than in
the acquisition of developed mine
which has already produced it's
hundreds of thousands. At one
time the impression prevailed in
this western country that the bo
nanzas already found and being
worked comprised all the mines
productive of the precious metals
that ever could or ever would be
found. OF late years, however, it
has been proven that this is a mis-
taken idea, as, during almost every
season, some wonderful finds are
being made throughout the mining
districts of this intermountain re-
gion. Arizona camps have them
by the score, and the reports OF inn
portant finds in the mountains of
states substantiate the
claims often made-that, as yet, We
Know nothing of what we actually
possess in the way of mineral
wealth.
Ten or fifteen years have wrought
q wonderful change in the mining
of this western country.
At that time we were proud Of our
great dividend-payers, honestly be-
Iieving that time would not pro-
luce their equal, and yet, after so
brief a period in our mining his
tory, old-time wonders have been
more than duplicated by large
number of new mines, some of
which overshadow the records made
by our first great mines in a man
ner that gives increased confidence
in the mining industry Of the Rocky
Mountain region.

Y Nominated
! the 37th Ballot.
Democrats Finally Agree
a Man For Sheriff.

After a hard and bitter three
cornered fight, and one personal
encounter, and a convention last
ing four days, the democrats OF
Yavapai county nominated NJ. J.
Hickey for sheriff on the 37th bal
lot Wednesday night at Prescott.
The convention first met last
Saturday and had little trouble in
selecting candidates for most of
the county Offices, but the office of
sheriff, with eleven eager contest
ants, proved another matter. Aft
er the first ballot, all of the candi-
dates but three, Hickey, Hooker
and Hobbs, were out of the race.
The balloting remained about the
same until the last ballot, wnen
Hooker withdrew in favor of Hick-
ey and the latter received 50 votes
to Hobbs 81.

tied the property during the past
year, all pronouncing it one OF the
greatest gold discoveries of modern
times. Those who are fortunate
enough to secure stock in the prop
erty will have reason to congratu-
late themselves. A great many
Arizona people who know the prop
erty, will take stock in it, be1iev
it will be another large producer
like the Vulture, near here, which
has produced over $17,O0O,000.

BLACK ROCK
MINING co.
Developing An Immense Low
Grade Ore Body, Somewhat
Like the Orc Grande.
Now Crosscutting
On 2OO-Foot Level.

The editor of the News-Herald
visited the Powell and Muncbus
property Thursday, eleven miles
up the river, to note the work being
done by the Black Rock Mining
Co., which now controls the same.
The company is working force
OF twelve or fifteen men on the
group, under the able supervision
of ii. II. Keays, who has charge of
the work during the absence of F.
Mclean, the manager. The min
eralized zone is an immense one
being somewhat similar to the Orc
Grande. The mineralized zone has
been proven to be over eight hund-
red feet in width and several thou
sand feet long, the richest portion
being a body in the centre about
two hundred feet wide and one
thousand long. Iii the centre of
this body is a well-defned pay
streak about four feet wide, ASSAYS
on which give an average of over
$l2 in free-milling gold. ASSAYS
taken all over the ore body for a
distance of about one hundred feet
on each side Of this streak give an
average Of little over $5 in gold.
Following this streak aforemen-
toned, q shaft has been sunk two
hundred. feet a9d three SHIFTS ore
being worked running drifts each
way, from one of which a crosscut
has started. The ore being brought
up from the 200-foot level shows
the Same values as that nearer and
on the surface.
The writer secured a number of
specimens of free gold from the
four-foOt streak near the mouth of
the shaft and from the ledge at
other points, showing the deposit
to be we'll mineralized with the
precious metal. A wagon road
graded from the camp to the shaft,
and cutting across the north half
Of the deposit, shows the oxidized
naturalization for distance of
several hundred feet. Two 5O-foot
on the 100-foot level are
IN ore averaging a little over S.
ton, proving the naturalization at
that depth.
Mr.. Keays, who is in charge of
the work, is one Of the most prac-
teal mining men in this section.
He has a complete assaying outfit
and has erected a furnace. so as to
be able to closely follow the ore
values as the work progresses. If
the ore body and the values hold
out with depth, the Black Rock
Mining Co., Ltd, will have one of
the largest low-grade properties in
