heyes, prominent business men OF
Beason, Illinois, are in the city and
we're just in time to witness the hoist
ing of six tons of very rich ore at the

company with H. A. Suttle.

months in hopes that he will recover
his health which has been poor foI
some time. Mr.. Sharpneck Fsays Mr..

milford Winsor has severed his con-
nection with the Tucson Citizen.
The indications at one time were that
Mr.. Winsor would become the ]. Pier
pont Morgan of Arizona, in the news
paper business and buy up all the
newspapers in the territory. He sue
ceeded in getting his graphing hooks
on three-the Tucson Citizen, Phenix
Enterprise and Yuma Sun. He still
owns an interest in the latter but has
let go the others. He is now in Los

r. n. Fredericks has moved into his
magnificent new residence on south
Pleasant street. This is one of the
most elegant homes in Arizona and
standing as it does on the brow of the
hill with full view of the entire
city, it is one of the prettiest places
in the city. Mr.. Fredericks is one of
the pioneer business men of Prescott
and his unqualified faith in the future
of the city from business standpoint

neighborhood of $40, 600 on beautiful

The manager of the Continental
Consolidated Mining and Milling
company, which is operating large
group of promising claims about fif-
teen miles from the Planet mines on
the Colorado river, received box of
ore by express from the property last
night which is Literally full of free gold,
chunks of the precious metal sticking
out all over it. The samples are fabu-
lousy rich and have just been taken
out of the property by the men who
we're doing the assessment work ON
the claims. The information sent
with the samples was very meager and
said nothing further than the fact
that they had just been struck. The
results of the assays, which will be
made today, are of course not known,
but the values will go away up into
the thousands of dollars. This is the
second rich strike that has been made
in that neighborhood within the past
few weeks, and should the ore body
be of any extent there will undoubt-
eddy be big camp spring up in that
section within a very short time. The |
company had just contracted with |
Prescott parties to sink the shaft 100 |
feet deeper and they left for that place
