STRIKE AT MARAVILLA CAMP.

1t is known that an important strike
was made last week in one of the mines
of the Lone Star group, being developed
by the Maravilla company. Superin-
tendent Knowles is in the east and
those who are in charge of the work
are reticent about giving out any def
mite information, but it is reported that
in drift being driven under the hill
from the bottom of 160-foot shaft
body of high grade copper was encoun-
tered, which by assay run 10 and 90
per cent. The face of the drift is all in
ore and it has been prospected six feet
below the drift. If such a strike has
been really made at this depth it will
mean great deal not only for the
owners of the mine, but also to this
valley and it's agricultural industry
A body of such ore would mean reduc-
ton works at no distant day and hun
dreds of miners at work.-Solomonville

Mines and Minerals Of Arizona

Shipments of copper will be commenced
this week and thus another permanent
industry is added to Clifton, which will
give employment to large number of
men. The plans for converter and con-
centrating plants are nearing compile
ton, after which work will be COM
menced on them. These additions to
the Shannon plant will be completed
next fall and winter, after which the
Shannon company will be among the
heavy producers of Arizona.
! John Molder, superintendent of the
Home Copper companys mines. was
down last week, and is quite enthusi-
astic over recent developments he is
making On some of the company's gold
claims. He states that he has quartz
lead twelve feet wide which will aver
age 81 in gold and silver. Mr.. Molder
expects to make contract with the
D. c. company for this quartz, which
will be used for converter lining. AS
the d. c. company would consume
thirty tons of this ore per day it would
mean d considerable amount of work
for the new company. and leave a safe
margin above expenses in the develop
ment of the property.
Paul Nicholas, who has been in
charge of the LongfelIow division of
the Arizona Copper company's proper
ties for many years, left Tuesday morn
ing with his family for the east. Mr..
Nicholas has resigned his position
which is now filled by w. ]. Atkinson,
but will still be connected with the
company, and will return every few
months to look over the mines. The
a. c. company's great properties at
Longfellow and Morenci We're devel-
oped under the management of Mr..
Nicholas. who deserves and has always
received full credit from the manage
ment of the company for the intelli-
gent and comprehensive manner in
which he opened up the property. There
are no better mining men that Paul
Nicholas and certainly no company
was ever better or more faithfully
served than the A. c. company by him.
Mr.. Nicholas will spend several months
| travelling over the United States with
his family, after which he will visit his
old home in England Mr.. Nicholas
! backed his faith in the mines by buying
A. c. stock when it was at its lowest
! figure, hence he is now in easy circum-
stances, and can enjoy life as he sees

STAMP MILLS.

a fact not generally known is that
outside of Alaska, and excepting the
Homestake mine of South Dakota, the
two largest stamp mills on the Pacific
coast are in southern California-one at
the Yellow Aster mines, Randsburg;
the other at the Golden Cross mines at
Hedges, San Diego county.
The Golden Cross has 140 stamps and
the Yellow Aster has $50 stamps. While
not desiring to make an invidious COM
parison, it should nevertheless be
stated that the Yellow Aster's two
mills-one of thirty. the other of 100
stamps-are vastly superior to the two
mills at the Golden Cross, chiefly be-
cause those of the former company are
of modern equipment. Aside from that
the fact remains as stated, which is
that southern California has the two
largest stamp mills on the Pacific coast
with the exceptions above noted.

BLACK WARRIOR MINES
Magnitude of the Ore Bodies Owned
by the Company.

Much has been written of the Black
! Warrior teaching plant near Globe but
little has been said of the ore bodies
held by the company available for sup
plying the big plant. The following
from an exchange gives an idea of the
magnitude of these ore deposits:
The company has seventy-four full
claims or copper mines, which is prob
ably the largest copper fields in the ter
ritory owned and controlled by one
company.
The Montgomery group is located
near the plant. The development and
the ore on the dump shows 100000 tons
of ore. which will yield Z per cent cop
per from the reduction works.
The Gold Gulch group shows a con-
tact vein of ten feet wide of chalco-
pirite ore, copper sulphide. This vein
is opened for mile in length and
shows a fine contact vein for the entire
distance. From the development now
made 300 tons daily can be extracted
and placed on dumps.
On the Diamond group a shaft 800
feet has been sunk, and sinking still
continues Several crosscuts have been
made and the ore body shows large in
wide of a rich grade of copper ore. The
ore supply embraced within the COM
pany's holdings seems to be inexhaust-
ible.
Roads have been opened to all of the
claims. From 100000 to $4,000 have
been expended in making good roads
The farthest mine from the reduction
plant is six miles distant.
The reduction plant and the sulphuric
acid plant are very complete. 1t will
make thirty tons of acid daily at a cost
less than SIS per ton. 1t formerly cost
the company $44 per ton laid down in
Globe. This shows a saving in this
item of $50 per ton.
A complete concentrating plant with
a capacity of 125 tons daily, a teaching
plant of $50 tons daily capacity, a fifty
ton matte furnace, a refining furnace
and precipitating drums with ten tons
capacity constitute the plant of the
company. Oil is the fuel used and this
is another source of large economy.

MINING NOTES.

When the report was telegraphed
from New York couple of weeks ago
that the Calumet and Hecla company
of Michigan had bought certain copper
properties in Arizona, we denied the
correctness of the statement, saying
that the properties referred to were,
without doubt the South Bisbee prop
critics and that the purchasers of them
were people connected with the Calu-
met and Arizona company, and that the
Calumet and Hecla company had moth
ing to do with the transaction A BOs-
ton gentleman. now visiting Los An
geles, took the trouble to telegraph to
| Boston, also to the Calumet and Hecla
company, and the replies he received
and which he has shown to us, confirm
the correctness of our statements. 1t
may, moreover. be stated that Mr.. Cor
don r. Campbell, to whom the South
Bisbee properties were transferred, is
not the secretary of the Calumet and
Hecla company, as some papers have
announced.-Los Angeles Mining Re
view.
A mining deal is pending which in
cludes some twenty mines in this dis
trict and it is understood negotia tons
are nearly closed which will be followed
by some extensive work later, all of
which, successfully handled, will be of
material assistance to Tombstone
Prospector.
Today the Bisbee West will probably
test the big pumps which have just
been installed. For the past six months
the company has lifted water in a $50
gallon bucket in order to let the men
into the 60O-foot level. The new pumps
have capacity of 100000 gallons in
twenty -four hours. Directors Cass ana
Lee of Los Angeles will be present
when the test is made.-Review.

he had recently accepted a position as
manager of a mining company. Mr..
Furman made an exhaustive report on

He also reported on the New England
group, upon which the new company
was formed for taking over and oper-
ating the property, and was the con-
sulting engineer of the property at the
time of his death. Mr.. Furman was
considered high authority on mines and

Origin of "Ruckboard.~

There are few PERSONS says a sol
der who long since returned to civic
ranks, who know how the name of
blackboard came to be applied to a
vehicle 1t was way back in the EOS,
when the transportation of goods,
wares and merchandise was principal
ly all by wagons. DR.. Buck, who for
long years after was the military store
keeper here, was then in charge of
stores en- route to army posts in the
southwest. In east Tennessee Difficult
ty was experienced by reason of the
rough roads, and there were frequent
mishaps, mostly from the wagons over
turning. DR.. Buck ovcrhauled the out
fit, and abandoning the wagon bodies,
long boards were set directly on the
axles or hung below, and the stores
were reloaded in such a manner that
there were no further delays from
breakdowns, and the stores safely
reached their destination. The idea
doubtless was not new, but DIR. Buck s
example was followed. especially when
roads were rough, and soon much haul
ing was done by the use of wheel, axle
and boards only Now the fashionable
blackboard recalls the old gentleman
to some of US" -Washington Star.
