Some people seem to be natural ly afflicted with "a diarrhea of words and constipation of ideas.

MILL STARTED AT
SOCORRO MINE.

Ed. NJ. keoIey LETT for the Socor-
TO mine, Thursday, accompanied by
George Hoyt and r. d. George, who
will assist him in the erection of
the Socorro's 20-stamp mill
About twelve cars of machinery
and fifteen cars of lumber have al
ready been taken out to the mine,
and everything is now in readiness
for the millwrights. Mr.. Kelley
expects to complete the mill within
three or four months, and have it
in shape to turn out bullion. The
machinery was furnished by the
Llewcllyn Iron works, OF Los An
geles, and is OF the latest patterns.
Manager Witherlay has about 25
men working at the mine, blocking
out ore, preparatory to starting the
mill. Two shifts are being worked :,
and he expects to have years
supply of ore ready to stope when
the mill is completed. The pipe
line was completed some time
since, and the boilers have been
set, 50 that nothing now remains
but the erection of the building and
the installation of the stamps and
other machinery. The SocOrro was
at one time a large producer, the
ore having been arrastraed out or
taken to mills many miles distant.
This will be the first mill to pro-
duce bullion around Wickenburg,
since the discovery of the Orc
Grande.
The building of the Socorro mill
west of here will mark the begin
ming of new era for Wickenburg
and contiguous sections. Twenty
stamps is not many, it IS true, Tut
they will be a starter; and, with a
hundred dropping at the Orc Grande
and d number of other mills on
properties now being developed
around here, business will improve
materially, and Wickenburg will
be the center of district in which
not one, but several thousand men
will be on the pay-rol]s.

AN ANALYSIS OF THE
HASSAYAMp WATER.

1t is notorious saying that one
drink of the water from the Hasa
vamp river will fix a man so he
can never afterward tell the truth.
1t is also said that he will never
save a dollar, and will always re-
turn for another drink, once having
tasted the famous beverage.
A local enthusiast this week had
an assay made to determine what
it was that caused these things to be
so. The certificate from the assayer
shows the water to contain II per
cent, moisture, A per cent. hot air,
ii per cent. lye, and the other p
per cent. some Understandable COM
ponent. This unknown substance
is probably what causes a HASA
vamper to spend his money and re-
turn to make more.

THE VULCAN SHELTER.

Mr.. II. c. GlOrc, superintendent
Of the smelter OF the Sonora Milling
and Mining company, has made Il
report to his company Of the opera
tions of the Vulcan smclter, recent
Iy erected at the company's mines,
at Tubutama, Sonora, Mexico, from
which the following is taken:
"We have made many runs with
the smelter OF from twcnty-four to
thirty-six hours duration, when
the water supply would be eX-
hausted At the times when the
fires were drawn the furnace was in
better operating condition than at
any time during the run, proving
beyond a doubt that your smelter
is a splendid success, when properly
handled. 1t started slow, but in
variabiy increased its capacity
When there was no more water !

bullion averaged 914 per cent cop

depth is attained, this will no
doubt be found to be part Of the

The ore is strongly oxidized, and
the copper values are very evident,
while the quartz has every appear
ance of being gold-bearing. We
are informed by those in charge
that assays made lately gave val
ues Of over 20 per cent. copper and
nearly 500 in gold, a considerable
increase over assays made near the

done. The property was purchased
from Sam Franklin and George

twenty-five years ago there was
any number of business men to be
found who said that advertising
does not pay. But these have dis
appeared entirely from the larger
marts OF trade. They either failed
in business or they died OF envy
and grief-the former because of
the success OF their rivals, who did
advertise; or the latter becauee
they realized that their own busi-
ness was going to the "demnition
bow-wows," as Mr.. Mantalina
would say. The few that survive
are restricted to the small towns.
and these are too lazy to wait upon
the few customers who enter their
places OF business. In geometry
one finds what are axioms, which
need no demonstration, for the rea-
son that they are self-evident truths
1t is automatic that advertising
does pay. This means practical,

ing judicious, wholesome adver-

The editor of the News Helal
tries to find time to visit at least
one each week of the many mining
properties being developed in the
vicinity of Wickenburg, and last
Sunday spent the day at Gilbert
and the Electra mine, in company
with Ed. NJ. Kelley, the master
mill man, who starts next week to
erecting the Socorro 20-stamp mill
west Of town.
The Electra mine is located about
ten miles northeast OF Wickenburg,
in the Black Rock district, short
distance above Judge Wade's, and
about mile east OF the road be
tween Wade's and Gilbert The
property consists OF three claims,
the Rich Hill, Japan and Gold Bar,
the latter located recently. The
most of the work has been done
upon the Rich Hill claim, upon
which is an incline shaft following
the ore, and now down about 100
feet. The ledge is in granite, and
is strongly mineralized for width
of from three to five feet at present;
but, in our opinion, the ledge mat
ter will be found to be much wider
as depth is attained, as the hanging
wall is in reality but thick streak
OF porphyritic granite, carrying
iron, and even now
showing mineral stain, which IS in

Machinery Has Been Purchased and First Cars Are Expected

Twenty Feet and Abundant Water Supply Assured
THEY REFUSE A $4,000 OFFER
FOR THE RYLAND LEAD MINE.

The News Herald has had little
to say lately concerning the Gus
tom smelter, and some non-resi-
dents seem to have the idea that
the project has been abandoned.
Nothing could be further from the
truth, and the News Herald man
visited the grounds Tuesday to as
certain what had been and was be-
ing done.
Mr.. Scofield and r. w. jackson
are both in California, where they
have purchased machinery, and
are now experimenting the making
of castings and other parts neces~
sary for the plant. The other mem
bcrs of the company, Mr., Triptow
and Mr.. Burford, are both here
Mr.. Triptow in charge OF the work
at the grounds, while Mr.. Burford
is spending most of his time among
the miners and at the various mines
which the company has purchased
and leased. A number of small lots
II rich ore have already been pur-
chased
At present. most of the work is
being concentrated upon the large
we'll being sunk A number OF men
are employed, and the we'll is now
down something over 20 feet, where
a considerable flow OF water has
been encountered. The size OF the
well is 12x3O feet, and the last ten
feet have been in natural cement.
The we'll being on the bank Of the
river. there is no doubt but an
abundant supply OF water will be
secured with few more feet Of
work.

the grounds adjoin the :. F., p. x

is necessary to connect the smelter
with the outside world.
The company purchased the old
Ryland lead mine several weeks
ago, and will put a force of men at
work taking out ore within few
weeks. The purchase price was
$1,000 cash, and the company Sc
cured a bargain. Colorado people
this week offered $4,000 for the
property, and there are several
others here who would gladly have
paid more than the amount paid
by the smelter people, but had been
waiting to secure the property on
" easy terms" The Rvland mine
was worked u number OF years ago.
before the advent of the railroad,
and the ore was freighted to Mari
copa in wagons and on burros, from
where it was sent to Benson by
rail. Notwithstanding the great
expense necessary to get the ore to
market, the owners made something
over $4,000 profit out of the mine
Since Mr., Ryland's death, nothing
has been done with the mine as
Mrs. Ryland has been waiting to
make a cash deal. having refused a
number Of fiattering offers to bond
or lease the mine.
The fact that the smelteI people
have secured this mine, as we'll as
leases on number of other prom
ising properties, is the best evi-
dence that they mean business, and
the mine-OWnerS of this section
need have no fear but that they
will soon have local ore market
