The hoisting plant for the De la Fountaine is to be hauled out to tho mine today and will at once be installed in the drift and the shaft continued down to water level The shaft is about three hundred feet from the portal and through this drift all waste and ore will be discharged until water in sufficient quantity to require pnm D. ing plant is encountered, which will probably be within 2 0 feet below the level of the drift. The mine shows wonderful bodies of rich lead and zinc ores. It is expected and predicted by mining men of experience that ore rich in gold and silver will be found below the water level, as the mine is located in one of the best parts of the Stock ton Hill gold and silver belts.

We understand that the salt mines of the Virgin valley are to be worked. A few days ago party of gentlemen passed through Kingman, having just made location of large amount of sa- line lands for a syndicate of capital ists. The salt lands of the Virgin and Muddy valleys are the largest deposits of sodium chloride in the United States and are very pure, much of it running as high as 98 per cent. For years some of these saline deposits were worked by Daniel Bonelli, but the market was limited and for the past ten years little was done with them. Now we understand that they are to be worked on large scale.

Capt. 1. c. Coukey, Mineral Parks genial merchant, was in Kingman a few days ago and reported that he and Steve Tyler had another shipment of ore from their new mining property on the way to the smelter. The last ship ment ran over eight ounces in gold and it is expected that the present ship ment is cores pondingly rich. The mine is situated at the summit of the range west of old Canyon Station.
 Preparation for the starting up of work on the Elkhart mine is now un- der way and good force of men will be put on before the first of January. The sinking to a depth of 1000 feet, which is contemplated, will be watched with interest oy the people of this county, as it will undoubtedly develop new ore zone and enlighten the mine owners as to what they may expect be- low the water level. So far there is not mine in the district that has obtained the depth where permanent change has taken place in the ore. It is our belief that copper will become the dom inent metal with depth and that the gold values will increase largely.

WOMEN AT POTTERS' WHEEL.
Country for the Purpose of
Learning the Art.

The newest outlet for women's en-
ergy is pottery making. The famous
lockwood works were started by
woman, and many women are now
turning their attention to the pos
sibilities of the wheel, combined with
deft fingers and delicate fancy, in
the manipulation and designing of
clay, reports the Brooklyn Eagle.
All over the country women are
becoming interested in pottery max
ing. Classes are being formed and
find enthusiastic students ready to
DIN them. Several classes are already
in operatio in Brooklyn. and are Civ
ing time to the acquisition of this
practical art. a local artist, who is
a member of one of these pottery
classes, says:
"The work is and will be for some
time to come crude and imperfect,
but there is so much enthusiasm man
ifested and promise of good work
to come, that the outlook Is very
promising. 1t is proposed to have
courses in pottery connected with
china painting societies. This will
be a great step in the right direction
for them, china painters will not be
dependent on conventional shapes in
pottery. and the necessity of the same
design being used over and over
again, but each woman can design
and model her own pieces, and thus
give opportunity for the introduction
of original types"

Then these spots are made into

On the suburban trains each spot
usually counts for five cents, and the

Washington, January IL, 1903.
A peculiar situation conironts the
members OF the United States Senate
a situation satisfactory to consider
able number of the republicans and
equally unsatisfactory to others. Sc
veral legislative bills ale ready for ac
ton and number of antitrust bills
reposc IN the Senate committees but
practically all legislation is blocked by
the Statehood bill and it is already
predicted that when 1t is disposed of
there will be no time left tor legisla.
tion other than the regular approprla-
tol bills, no one of which has yet
passed the Senate. To that element
of the party which wishes 10 see the
antitrust bills crowded off the taps,
Senator Quay's persistent advocacy
of the Omnibus territorial bill is most
gratifying, but to Senator Proctor,
for instance, who is anxious to secure
the passage of the Militia Reorgan-
zatlon bill and to Senator Lodge,
who is working for the passage OF the
immigration bill, and to a few sena-
tors who fear that in the absence of
trust legislation by this Congress, the
Presiden, will call the next in special
sesslon,the Statehood blockade is most
annoying.

Over fifteen senators have indicated
their intention to speak on the subject
OF statehood for the territories. Tues
day Senator Hoar addressed the Sc
nate on the subject of his antitrust
bill and Attorney General Knox has
sent in his opinion regarding antitrust
legislation. Senator Foraker is ably
seconding Senator Quay in the State
hood fight and the result is apparent
ly interminable delay. OF course, as
Senator Quay says, this could be
easily obwated if the republicans
would merely fulfil their pledges made
in the national platform and grant
atehood to the three territories, but
SO intense is the fear that the propo SEQ
states might add to the democratic
strcLgth IN the Senate that 1t is evident
S atehood will be granted only as q
, last resort.
