NJ, of Vails station, on the Southern Pacific, a few miles east of Tucson, where the properties are To- cated. The property consists of seven full claims and mill site in the Rincon mountains. near Vails station. Like the Copper Crown this company also expects to become patron of the Ben son smelter.
 The trend of the ore body across this group is from northwest to southeast and the company is now crowding work on two double compartment shafts about 1000 feet apart. Shaft No. 1 was down 75 feet and shaft No. was down 45 feet at last report. There are several other shafts on the property but no great depth has been reached, though all are in ore. There is an abundance of water and timber for mining purposes is not many miles dis tant. The property therefore is consid- cred a choice prospect.

NEW CYANIDE PROCESS
Which Will Work Wonders at Mo
 have-County Mines.

Oscar Ellis is in from White Hills today and brought in gold bullion to the amount of 50 ounces, the result of several tests he has been making on tailings from the Grand Army. upon which with Joe Godfrey, he has lease, says the Chloride Arrow. There is I pile of tailings in this lease amounting to 250,G eco tons. and t is the intention O. MT. Ellis to erect 50 or 100 ton cyanide plant to treat the ore.
 This is the new process in cyaniding heretofore mentioned in this paper, and bids fair to revolutionize mining in this county when it becomes better known. A test made by him of tailings from the Great West mine. operated by Ed Toby and others. showed that a great saving can be made with this fnven- tion.
 The secret in the apparatus. which makes it valuable as a gold saver, is an electric current by which sulphides that cannot be treated in the ordinary way yield readily to this process. Mir. Ellis will make his fortune out of his discovery before a great while.

BIG HAULAGE EXPENSES.
What Takes the Profits From the
 Grand Gulch Enterprise.

A Kingman. Ariz., correspondent of the New York Commercial says
 Superintendent Jennings of the Grand Gulch mines reports that from Novem- Der, 1899, to date there has been shipped to the shelter 1000 tons of ore the av craze of which was A per cent copper, , ounces silver and S1 gold. For this ere nearly $100.000 was received from the smelter. The wagon haul from the mine to the railroad is 1S0 miles for which haulage $23 per ton is paid. Rail- road freight amounts to S6 per ton, a total haulage charge of S29. The smell ters make a low treatment charge on account of the desira ble quality of the ore, but nevertheless the cost of mar keting the ore is entirely too high. No railroad now building will reach any nearer to the property. About 40 miles east of the Grand Gulch mines are the mines of the Coconino Copper company, which is just now operating teaching plant with great success. The ore of this company is equally as rich as that of the Grand Gulch, but the haul is still greater to the railroad. All the ores are of an oxide and carbonate na- ture and are easily leached. or smelted on the ground. The veins are all large, but being in a sandstone formation are somewhat irregular in dip.

flow of water was encountered. which low the chute. and the only way that it's size can be determined is by con- tinuing the shaft down and then run another level to strike the ore chute or if it should be found not 10 extend to the next level an upraise could be made to strike it.
 In order to continue sinking the shaft heavier machinery will have to be in~ stalled.
 From this it will be seen that the possibilities of it's being quite an ex- tensive chute of ore are quite great.
 This discovery Is entirely side issue to the company. as it was never eX- pected CT even ccnjectured that such ore would be found in the property, and without taking it into consideration the other ore opened up is sufficient in quantity as well as in quality to make it one of the biggest mines E Yavapai county. The ore body alongside of this free ore is quite large and of profita ble grade.
 In a recent mention of the ore from this strike the assay values were given as s3.522 in gold and s49.40 in silver, or total of $3,571.4O per ton. Since then a sample of a harder ore. and differing from the former samples, was assayed and it gave a value of SIP 195.30 in gold and $215.7O In silver, or a total of $12,- Ill per ton

 The Black Diamond, which adjoins the Copper Bullion on the north, have their 200-ton smelter nearly ready to blow in, with ample ore in sight to op crate on.
 A large body of sulphde ore has just been opened up on the Cummings prop erty, adjoining the Copper Bullion on the south.
 MT. Clark believes that the little Dragoon range is the greatest copper 1 bearing district in Arizona. While there he visited the Hilltop Silver-Lead Mines company's property in the Chir- icahua mountains, and found every thing booming. The main shaft is down 115 feet and has been all in ore nearly the entire depth Of the shaft.
 At the 2O0-foot level drifts will be run to determine the size of the ore body. Several hundred tons of ore are on the dumps. and more being added to it every shift. Ten men are employed in development work.

THE FIRST HOME STRIKE
It is Like Finding a Pirates Chest of
 Buried Treasure.

Mention has previously been made by correspondents of The Republican, of the wonderfully rich strike made in the First Home mine of the Merchants Mining company of Prescott. This strike seems to be like getting money from Home for it is a chute of the very highest grade shipping ore in a mine developed for it's low grade ores. A few days ago a party of Prescott business men. thinking the newspaper reports had been exaggerated. visited the mine and on their return a Journal Miner reporter interviewed them, se- curing the following story
 The rich ore was encountered in the 240-foot level, ninety feet north of the shaft The ore chute is not large in the drift, but it is extremely rich and there are possibilities of it's producing several hundred thousand dollars. Ar examination of it indicates that they struck just the apex of the ore chute. This conclusion was reached from the fact that in the roof of the tunnel the rich ore is only two inches thick. The tunnel is seven feet high and in this distance the ore widens from two inches in the roof of the tunnel to from
  tunnel. Should it continue to widen out in this proportion for a distance of from fifty to seventy-five feet it would be difficult to estimate the amount of gold it would yield.
 As a basis to figure from, if any one desires to make a calculation, it may be stated that they have driven into it. since first striking it, distance of six feet and have taken out and sacked rourteen sacks of ore estimated to be worth at least s3.0OO, and probably more. Or in other words. with fifty dollars worth of labor over 5000 have been taken out of this chute in the drift.
 The trend of the ore chute as nearly IS can be determined now is down. ward. and 10 the north as well.

He reports work progressing on it in a very satisfactory manner. The main tunnel is now in about geo feet and going ahead at the rate of about two feet to the shift, with about 200 feet yet to run to cut the main vein or dyke on the contact at a depth of about 400 feet. This tunnel has cut several veins of high grade ore on which stoping will soon be commenced.

THE COPPER GROWN
And the Virginia Belle Gold and Cop
 per Mining Company.

The Dragoon mountain range. from Dragon station on the Southern Pa cific south to the Bisbee district. is known to ue a highly mineralized re- zion as instanced by the face that at short intervals during the whole dis tance may be found the monuments of the prospector and of the many there are several groups of properties that are now being developed on an extens- i've scale.
 Two of these properties are particu- larly we'll known by reason of the much that has been printed of them in the southern Arizona papers during the last year. They are the Middlemarch and the Black Diamond, northeast of Tombstone. and between that city and Pearce The Black Diamond has just completed a 2OO-ton smelter and it is expected the property will shortly take rank in the producing list.
 Between these two well known mines is a group of twelve claims owned by the Copper Crown of Arizona Mining company" Less has been heard of this property fer the reason that it is q younger enterprise. but it promises everything for the future as the devel- opment work from report shows strong veins and it is surely in the center of q rich district. The company is organ ized under the laws of Arizona with a capital stock of s2, ,0O0, 900. the director ate being mostly Minnesota business men and the manager Charles F. Pot ter of 13 South Seventh street Minne- apolis.
 The group lies about twenty miles south of Cochise station and the assur- ance that the new smelter at Benson will at an early day be a reality has encouraged the management to push development work. While reduction works is the object aimed at by all big mining enterprises it is believed the ores from the Copper Crown may be profitably taken to Benson for reduc- tion before the time when a plant al the mine will be justified. Active de- velopment was begun on this property in the fall of 1900 and recently some new work was inaugurated. The mair lead, which is continuation of the big dyke crossing the Black Diamond. car be traced on the Copper Crown prop erty for ever 1000 feet and it has beer surface prospected by numerous oper cuts.

over the sidewalk up north Main

one side, then the other, then he
seemed to step in hole, jumped
out and just then the other end of a

struck with his shin, and fell prone
