 G. N. Mccullough, of Pasadena,
 California, who has been in Prescott
 for the past two weeks on. mining
 business, has succeeded in organizing
 the Prescott Arizona Gold Mining
 company, which company has secured
 twenty-three claims in the Eureka
 district, which are both placer and
 quartz propositions and the indica-
 tions are that they will be heavy pro-
 ducers, as the placer ground is very
 rich, number of fine large nuggets
 having been recently taken out, and
 every pan of gravel washed out gives
 good results. It is proposed to work
 the ground on a large scale just as
 soon as machinery and apparatus can
 be secured and put in place. He has
 associated with him J. T. Pendegast
 & Co.,, of this city, and several promi- nent eastern people, and Mir. McCol-
 tough left for the east today to make
 arrangement to begin the work of de- velopment.
 Geo. Beach, superintendent of the
 Rapid Transit Mining company, came
 in from the Bradshaw mountains last
 evening. Mir. Beach says the wagon
 road in advance of the railroad is now
 within three miles of Crowned King.
 MT. Beach has been packing ore across the mountains for some time to the end of the railroad and ship ping from there to the Val Verde smelter. The Rapid Transit is show ing up in fine shape and when the railroad is completed so transporta- tion facilities will be good and at reasonable rate, this property, which is one of the oldest in that section. will undoubtedly develop into heavy dividend payer. There has been sev- eral Hnndred feet of development work done ! several hundred tons of ore are now on the dump which will give handsome returns for smelt- ing. The Bradshaw mountains are full of good prospects which have only been waiting for the railroad to make them valuable properties, and now the long looked for road is fore ing its way into this treasure vault of mineral and the future looks very bright for that entire section.
 J. A. Green, superintendent of the | Azurite Copper company's mine in | Coconino county has been in town for | several days on business. He says | the above property is looking we'll | and the company's smelter at Will | Hams is running regularly The prop erty is located thirty five miles north | of Williams and within a mile of the | railroad. The stock is owned princi- pally by Coconino county citizens Henry F. Ashurst, Dr. Tyroler and others being interested. The ore is treated by what is known as the George process of smelting.
 General Manager l.. W. Felt, of the mine, left yesterday for Den- yer to purchase machinery for the above mine. The company proposes to sink the shaft 100 feet deeper at once. It Is now down 700 and they purpose going to the 800 foot level and open it up at that depth. The of the mill will also be in- creased and other needed machinery The cost of the proposed which will be added is Sl25, 900. MT. Felt is a thorough mining man and is work ing the McCabe on thorough system atic business principles. When the nine is thoroughly exploited at the 300 foot level sinking will be contin- led another 100 feet and continued lntil 1000 feet is reached. MT. Felt thoroughly believes in deep mining.
 c. c. Stukey has the satisfaction now of seeing the machinery on the yround at the Bodie mine. after con siderable delay caused by the storms. 7reighter Henderson delivered the a few days since.

The mine will be taken over by an eastern ( and the erection of a large milling plant is one of the first things ,n the program The mine has been ; opened up by tunnel and shaft to a l depth, the main shaft on t being at a depth of seventy feet, while the tunnels are in the vein nearly one hundred feet. Ore carry ng big values in gold has been en- in the tunnels. -Mohave Miner.
