 Coconino Sun: w. D. Powell is in town from the Black Rock Gold & Copper Mining Company's mines in Yavapai county, a local mining company. The mines of the com pany are located nine miles from Dewey postofice, on the Prescott & Eastern railroad, and develop ment work shows lots of high-grade ore and the showing pleases the owners of the properties.
 Mohave Miner: The mines loc- ated by R. NJ. Bryan and others near Yavapai, last week, are said to be very valuable properties. The ores are gold and copper and occur in lime formation. Assays from the properties run as high as two ounces in gold with a small percentage of copper The locators have already put men to work on the mines to do the necessary loc- ation work.
 Mohave Miner: The Elkhart mine, at Chloride, has closed down, but whether indefinitely or for only short time it is impossible the determine. The mill will make a cleanup of all ores in the bins and on the mine dump before 1t Is closed The mine has been one of the very badly managed properties of the county, but recently 1t pass ed into the hands of competent peo ole who it was thought, would put the mine on a paying basis. The low price of both silver and lead may have had something to do with the shutdown.

WORKHOUSE PRISONER
ESCAPED In WAGON
Herman Miller, Though Heavily
Shackled, Leaped Into Vehicle
and Drove Rapidly Away.

Herman Miller. a Workhouse prisoner
heavily shackled. escaped in wagon from
the grading gang with which he was at
work in Carondelet Park yesterday morn
ing. Armed guards pursued him for nearly
a mile and a half, firing shots at him as ne
drove away furiously in the wagon, but
they were unable to capture him. When he
at last disappeared from their sight they
returned and reported the escape TO the
police.
Miller is 25 years old and the son of a
former police officer His hame is at Ninth
and Lami streets. AT the outbreak of the
Spanish-American war he enlisted in the
army and was sent TO the Philippines In
the latter part of February he was sent
from the police court to serve four months
in the Workhouse. He had only ten days
more to serve.
At the time of the escape he was heavily
chained, and 1t is considered very remark
able that he could escape and keep himself
in hiding. To one of his legs was chained
a heavy iron ball. In order to move about
he would have 10 carry the ball in his
hands. While the guards We're not looking
yesterday morning about II o'clock he SD
denly leaped into one OF thu wagons which
the graders We're using and urged the
horses away in a gallup. In short time
he clearly outdistanced his pursuers.
