A Dutch Whist Game.

Novel, unique and interesting was
an entertainment given on Saturday
afternoon by Mrs. J. l.. Fisher at her
residence on CorteZ street. There
were about three score ladies present
from Prescott. Whipple and Iron
Springs, and Dutch whist was played.
In fact it was what might be called "a
Dutch afternoon, as the prizes were
Dutch, the refreshments had decid-
eddy Dutch accent. being composed
of those tOothsome and palatable ar
ticles of diet which please the palates
OF all natiOnalties but which are dis
tinctly Dutch at the same time.
Little Miss Ethel Fisher, gowned in
Dutch costume, received the guests
at the door as they arrived. and Miss
Marguerite Tut, attired la Holland
dispensed delicious fruit punch to
the guests during the afternoon. The
decorations of the spacious hall and
parlors were sweet peas and ferns.
Dutch whist is sort of a medley
of games, commencing with plain
whist as played by all whist players,
of which three hands are played.
Then there are three hands played
without a trump, three in which the
trump Is named. three in which trump
is rejected, after the manner Of hearts
in which the winner is the one taking
the fewest tricks. and three hands
blind trump. There is sufficient di-
versity, it will be seen in all this, TO
keep up an afternoon of interest.
Mrs. j. NJ. Watts received first
prize, Mrs. E. J. Bennitt of PheniX
second prize, and Mrs. j. W. Doris
of zPhenix the guests prize, while the
consolation prize was awarded to Mrs.
r. b. Burmister. The prizes we're all
in keeping with the general nature of
tine entertainment the first prize be
ing a handsome picture of Queen Will
helmlna, others being of a Dutch
nature also. and delicious re-
freshments, consisting of Dutch
dishes, served at the conclusion of the
games.
The afternoon was one of rare pleas
ure and enjoyment to all who were
present.
Mrs. n. o. Murphy and Mrs. Iva
Tut assisted the hostess in entertain
ing.

ed by daring and hardy prospectors a
a time when, on account of the muir
derous Apache, cit was not good fol
man to be alone" in that region
just thirty three years ago, in tn,
summer of 1870, the first serious pros
pecting was attempted in the Brad
shaws. 1t was then that McCracker
and two ''pards'' braved the lurking
bands of bushwhacking Apaches, and
with a couple of burro loads of pro
visions, penetrated the hitherto unex.
| plored and untrodden Bradshaws.
They we're bound on a dangerous jour
ney, but by the time two months had
elapsed and their friends had given
them up, they arrived in good condi-
tion, with some $1,000 in gold which
they had extracted by crude methods
from the Del Pasco mine which after
wards became so celebrated as a pro-
Queer. This started rush for that
country, and the discovery of the
Tiger mine by bud Moreland soon
after, was followed by the mountain
settlement known as Bradshaw City,
where for many months there were
many saloons and dance halls in full
blast, but no churches.
Other discoveries followed fast :;
among them the Peck mine, which
proved so prolific that it started and
supported another mountain town
named Alexandria. The first ten tons
taken from the Peck we're bought by
Prescott merchants for $1,000 a ton.
Then came the long and brilliant list
of discoveries in the Tip Top dis
trict, also tie Bully Bueno, near Bat
tie Flat, and just over the mountain
to the northeast the mines that are
now owned by the Corona Consoli-
dated Mining company, which have
just been mentioned. The Crown
King, which has since become star
of the first magnitude, was discovery
of later years, when the Apache had
been eliminated and freight rates were
lower; but the earlier "finds,' after
being surface worked for their easily
available values, were temporarily
abandoned until better times.
1t must be remembered that in
those days there were no roads, and
freight rates were enormous, so it is not
surprising that the tide of prospecting
spread in other directions, and for a
time the district-the very culmina-
tion of the mineral belU-was almost
forgotten. Many of these "old
finds" though still held as valuable
property, still remained "closed
down." some on account of litiga-
ton resulting from the loose and I'M
businesslike methods of the old
timers; and others. on account of the
death of the original owners in dis
tant states, whose heirs are still min
ors, and know nothing of the value of
the properties. Recently however,
there are significant signs of an awak
ening interest in this important re-
gion which first fostered Prescott'sf
growth; and renewal of activity has
already been commenced in several
parts of the district.
But alasl your correspondent has

MINING INTELLIGENCE.

Take the Cerbat range from Stock
ton Hill to Chloride and all kinds OF
mines are found, gold, silver, copper,
zinc and turquoise. In one gold is the
principal value, the next claim to the
gold silver may predominant, then
copper. If you want turquoise get
off at Mineral Park where also the
highest per cent copper is being taken
out of the Kay mine. Any one want
ing mine of gold, silver, copper,
lead or turquoise can get it in the
range of mountains known as Cerbat
These hills were made to suit the pur.
chaser from the man who wants a gold
mine to the one who is looking for
values regardless of the kind Of metal.

j. X. Truman, superintendent OF
the Climax Gold company, which is
operating we'll known property at
Quartz mountain, came up from the
south yesterday where he has been
for the past four or five weeks INSTALL
ing new machinery on a property in
which he is interested known as the
Orizaba property and being operated
by the Orizaba Mining company, COM
posed mostly of Belgian capitalists.
The property is located about forty
five miles north of Phenix. The ma
chinery that has just been installed
consists of p horse power boiler and a
10 horse power hoist which will give
them a capacity for sinking 800 feet.
Mr. Truman has owned the property
for several years but on account of
the character of the ore he never had
the means to develop it. The ore is
solid iron and copper sulphides carry
ing between 10 and 10 per cent copper
and about 81 in gold. The ledge is a
mammoth one cropping out for over
80 feet across. The shaft was started
in the canyon which is about 300 feet
from the apex of the mountain, and at
% feet the sulphide ore was encounter
ed in a solid body, and at a depth of
60 feet a cross cut was run IA feet and
no walls have been struck as yet so it
is not known how wide the vein really
is. Contracts have been let for the
continuation of the development
work, and Mr.. Truman is very en-
thusiastic over the outlook of the
mine. 1t is a smelling proposition.
J. S. Jones has been sick for the
past three or four days but is up and
around again. Fourteen men are at
work in the mines and other improve
ments are going on at the Little Jes-
Use property.
The Leland lnine reduced its
force yesterday but will resume
in a day or two with an in
creased forAe They are at work sink
ing, which is gong on steadily.
Joseph Hicks arrived in Prescott
last night from Rat Portage, Canada.
Mr.. Hicks comes here to take charge
of the underground work of the Home
Run mine on Groom Creek, which has
just been purchased by Douglas, La
cey Il Co. He has spent forty four
years in practical mining in every
kind of mines, and comes to this sec |
ton with fine record and the highest |
credentials. The company proposes
to develop the Home Run mine in a |
first class manner and just as fast as
men and money can do the work. |
This property bears a fine reputation |
in this section and with such a man as
Mr.. Hicks IN charge of the work there
can be little doubt but what good re-
suits will be obtained and the prop
erty soon placed among the list of
steady producers.
