stacked up on the dump. This is decidedly copper proposition, the ore running between sixteen and twenty per cent copper while carrying from $3 to s9 per ton gold and a little silver. The work has been done at the apex Of the mountain but it is the intention of the company when the development of this claim is taken up to run a tUn- mel in the side Of the mountain several hundred feet lower.
 The party then visited the Deer's Rest claim near the foot of Corona mountain where the tunnel is now be- ing driven in to tap the ore shoot ex- posed in the large open cut near the top of the mountain. Three men are pushing this tunnel in as fast as they can and have now reached a distance of about 1S0 feet. At TO feet they cut two ore veins which showed no crop pings above ground. One of these veins is about twelve inches. wide and the other from eight to ten inches and show fine looking ore. It is expected to strike the large ore body at dis tance of about 7C0 feet at which dis tance they will have obtained between 600 and 700 feet depth on the ore.
 Tn a 6O-foot oDen cut on the Christ mas claim a splendid ore body has been found from four to six feet wide.
 On the property now owned by the Corona Consolidated Gold and Copper company, quite lot of work was done over twenty-five years ago, the ruins of the old mill and camp sites being plainly visible yet. With the eXpen- diture of a few hundred dollars a wagon road can be built to the prop erty to connect with a road leading to the railroad. Then with a mill to concentrate the ore, and the company expects within a few months to put up such mill. the prospects look bright for those who are interested in the company.

AMERICAN COPPER co.
Its Holdings, Their Location and
 Their Operation.


 This company was formed in 1901 and owns about twenty claims in the Big Bug district. Yavapai county. nearly all at present secured by United States patents. The properties of the com pany embrace the old Iron King and Copper Prince group also other adjoin- ing claims. They cover about 40 acres near the Prescott & Eastern rilroad. The ore yields gold. copper and silver The property is equipped with a fine steam hCisting plant and a 50- ton mill and 50-ton cyanide plant. The latter does not treat the mill product but operates on a different class of ore. The free milling ore of the Iron King mines is said to assay from $16 to $25 while the assay value of the smelling ore is three to four times as much. The ore bodies of the Iron King are said to range from 200 to 300 feet in width. The company claims to have blocked out nearly 36O,00O tons of copper ore in the Copper Prince group that will yield SIP per ton. The company employs about 130 men and pays about $2O,O0O a month at present, has no debts and is directed by well known New York business men. The main drift at the mines is over 800 feet long, being also opened by several shafts, crosscuts and drifts.-PrescCtt Herald.

A COMING COPPER PRODUCER.

A Florence Blade reporter, in skir- mishing for mining news this week, ran across w. '. Price. He had just come in from the Del Corbe company's prop erty. situated in the Red Hills country, twelve miles east of Florence. and, from present indications, destined to be one of the great producers of Pinal county in the near future.
 The shaft. which has been in ore from the start, is now down 1l0 feet, and progressing downward at the rate of three feet each twenty-four hours. Work is being pushed day and night, and as depth is attained the rock in- creases in richness.
 The mine is at present equipped with a Davis whim, but as the success of the property is now practically assured, the company intend to install steam hoist. and, as preliminary step in that direction, have let a contract to the Westfall brothers for the sinking of wells and development of water sup ply.
 It is fair to presume that the effort of this company will be crowned with success and that at no distant day the Del Corbe will be numbered among the great copper producers of the territory.

THE EDDIE MINE.

The Bodie mine, operated by C. C.. Stukey, is looking better every foot go- ing down. The main shaft now down 23O feet, shows up four feet of solid galena ore, all high grade, and all in dications are that the Bodie will be the pride of the Bradshaws in the near future. The Bodie consists of three claims and at every place they have dug down a few feet it shows high grade lead ore from one end of the group to the other. In the center Of this vein is a streak of so-called foon- lite from two to five feet wide and it shows plainly that this is the making Of the mine: wherever this foonlite is, there is ore.
 Following the vein q few days ago l discovered an old shaft about twenty feet in depth. There I saw the foon- lite and some lead ore along with it. This is at least two miles north from the Bodie mine on the same vein. This vein can be worked very cheaply at it is soft and good breaking ground. There is plenty of timber not far away. Stulls packed and delivered at the mine for five cents a foot.-Corre- spondence Courier,

A MEXICAN MINE.

G. s. Cottrel. foreman of the Pinto Gold mine, 15 miles east of Cos, came up yesterday and brought with him a 50 pound sack of gold specimens that would make a layman's eyes stick out. Some of the specimens were literally sparkling with gold and all had more or less patches of the yellow metal distri- buted through the matriX. It is as fine a lot of specimens as has been brought 10 Douglas in a long time and speaks well for the future of the mine.
 The main tunnel from which these specimens were taken, is now in about 300 feet and in a stOpe less than 9 feeS from the breast of the workings d rich body of ore has been encountered which carries gold going several hundred dol lars to the ton. It was from this body that MT. Cottrels specimens were ta- ken and he says that it is easy to pick out rock showing free gold anywhere on the dump that has ore from this part of the mine. The vein. he says, is not regular in size, but will show au average width of about two feet. and carries a fairly regular valuation of one ounce in gold to the ton.
 Two Tremain steam stamps are being worked on the ore and a pack train of 1A burros is kept busy packing it from the mine to the mill. Twenty-two men are now on the payroll and more will be added as the mine is being opened up.-Douglas Dispatch.

NEwCoMB PoTTEI.K.

Not every one who picks up a New comb vase and reads its distinctive mark NC knows what the dainty ware stands for They do not know that it is the exclusive work, so far, of south ern women. who have found what they hitherto lacked, an output for their artistic energy. Nor do they know that it is an individual effort. as individual as a picture or statue, that it is never to be duplicated, and is characteristic, not only of the designer, but of her guides and her environment. "To be the voice of your environment" says their leader most happily, "is to strike the great, high not in your own, or any art" Which is the standard set for the work being done at Newcomb. The girls are encouraged to study the dis tinctive and varied flora of the south, to sharpen their observation and their originality, and to express their own ideas with independence. Singularly some of the happiest conceits have originated with the girls who have nev- CT passed the boundaries of their native state. The disadvantage incident to a lack of comparative study seems to have been more than counterbalanced by their freedom of expression, the un- consciousness of fixed methods that leads toward servile imitation.
 As a means of self-expression and a support to the woman of the south. the work at Newcomb is important; as a part of the industrial expansion of a long stunted section il is e"en more significant.

AN EARLY DAY FLOOD
Next to Noah's It was the Biggest
 Ever.

"The food which sent the Ohio river sprawling all through the woods in 1SiS was about as nigh the one thrt Noah encountered as ever saw" said an old boatman who quit the river ten years ago and who spends his leisure time about the ship store concern of his sons in South street in this city II was captain of a steamer that piled be- tween the upper landings of the Ohio and Cairo.
 "Cairo was the big port where we al- ways took on stores. It depended on business as to how far up we went. Tn the flood of IS we run about as we pleased.
 "The government had no charts of the Ohio then, and if there had been any we would have paid no attention to them. I piloted the Tuscumbia right over rail fences and country roads in that flood. We hadn't many landings to make. for there was TO place to make fast the head lines.
 "I distinctly remember tying up the Tuscumbia one night to big tree that stood in a waste of water extending as far as the eye could see. The night coming on I found we could not make the port wanted to make and naviga- tion by night was altogether too risky at that high stage of the water. So I sent out the mate and deckhands in the yawl with tow lines which they made fast to huge tree, which was Q land mark on shore, near Rockport.
 That was not far from the place where Lincoln is said to have run his fatboat. All night long the Tuscumbia tugged at her ropes and chains and I expected every minute she would eith- CT break 'em or pull up the tree.
 Among my passengers were several Cumberland Presbyterian preachers who were bound down to Smithton to take boat to Nashville. where they were going to attend the general as sembly of their denomination. It look ed pretty squally and l invited the preachers to have a meeting in the ladies' cabin.
 Everybody aboard took more or less interest in the service, except the fellow who ran the bar. l had quite time of it in keeping him quiet. He said the preachers aft were interfering with his business for'ard, and that if I didn't stop the prayer meeting he'd cut the ropes that held us to the big tree. l soon convinced him that such an act would be worse than the meeting. as in case he carried out his diabolical plan everybody would go to praying, and he would probably be in the lead.
 "The meeting lasted nearly all night. The next morning we cast off, and by cutting across fields and through the woods We made our first landing the next day. pretty well up on the side os a bluff. We let down the smoke stack of the Tuscumbia in order to keep them from getting tangled in the branches of the trees.
 "I don't think there was as great a loss of life in that flood as there has been in the floods this year, partly ow- ing to the fact that there were not so many people. But it was the greatest flood l ever saw while l was in the business. New York Sun.

MINING NOTES.

Ii Is reported that a new miners union was organized at Walker last evening with a membership of forty five, not affiliated with the Western Federation of Miners. Considerable missionary work has been done in this city, and several new members have been obtained here.-Prescott Herald.
 John Mcdonald is engaged in work ing the Mark Twain mine about eight miles south of Prescott. The Mark Twain is an extension of the Blue Dick. a mine in which MT. Mcdonald was formerly interested and from which he took out many thousand dol lars. He is now taking ont a good quality of copper and silver ore.
 The Merchants Mining company has eight car loads of ore in it's bins now and will commence tomorrow shipping to the concentrating plant at Val Yer de. While the ore is of good grade. it contains a large percentage of silica and by concentrating. the value of the ore is increased from $20O to $500 per car load on account Of the increased cost of smelting silica ores.-Journal- Miner.
 Rapid progress is being made in the work on the cross cut tunnel of the Old Mesa Gold companys property. Work was commenced on this tunnel about the first of May and it is now in over 200 feet. In running this distance two blind lodges, which do not show on the surface have been run through which carries ore that horns well in free gold. These veins will not be pros pected at present but the work will be pushed just as rapidly as possible in running the tunnel in to tap the main rich vein which it is estimated is about 400 feet further ahead yet.-Journal- Miner.
 C. H. Prahm. superintendent of the Buckhorn mine. in the Weaver district, came up this morning to see about his monthly supplies. says the Prescott Herald. He is very enthusiastic over the general outlook, and says that with every foot of depth gained. the ore body shows increased wealth and depth. The ore dumps contain enough ore at present to keep ten stamp fill run ming indefinitely. and every assay shows increasing richness, although even on the surface croppings good values were shown. MT. Prahm was accompanied upon his return by D. J. Mahoney. who has been spending the past two months at the Buckhorn prop erty. MT. Mahoney is one of the stock holders in the company. and is also enthusiastic over the outlook.

We first used them in our family several years ago when living in Marietta, Ohio, where they are considered a household necessity. They are the finest remedy for backache or any symptoms of irritated or weakened kidneys on the market. Shortly after moving here some three years ago symptoms of d recurrence of kidney trouble in our family became evident and we tried to get Doan's Kidney Pills at several drug stores. They knew nothing about them and we sent to our druggist, Mr. Styer of Marietta for a supply Noticing them advertised In Phoenix last winter when we required them we procured them at the Brisley Drug Co store They are a necessity in our household, particularly so when compelled to drink the water in Phoe- nix. on every occasion when their use is required they have never failed to bring prompt relief

The Birds Had the Best of It, and the
 Rodent Had to Run.
 A strange fight took place the other day in the yard of the city hall. A rat appeared from under the clerks office, and at once was surrounded by nearly forty English sparrows. The curious scene attracted the detectives form po- lice headquarters, and they watched the maneuvers of the birds with great interest. At first these winged fighters appeared curious; and stood upright with their tails almost between their legs. but at what seemed to be a sig nal they took the initiative and flew at the slow moving creature. The rat made for the board of education, but was turned back by the spectators and again was forced to run the gauntlet of the birds. At this period of the fight many more sparrows descended to take part in the fracas. and the strength of the furry creature was fast giving out before the vicious pecks of the birds. Nearly dead, the rat finally reached the steps under the clerks office and fell into the crack. But the birds hung around on the wires and rain gutters Of the building waiting for the creature again to appear, but he did not.-Nor- folk Dispatch.

THE OLDEST SHIP IN THE WORLD
From "The Deep Sea Sailor" in Les
 lies Monthly for July.

The time was when American ships carried a broom at the mast head as a sign that America swept the seas. In those days fine ship building timber grew right down to the shore on the Atlantic coast. and there was hardly a bay on the New England shore where there was not a ship building yard. So il happens that most of the old sailing ships are built of American or Nor wegian timber. I have seen hundreds of cid square triggers roaming the world under strange flags whose every stick grew on American soil. Ships built of Essex oak are famous for their longevity. The oldest ship in the world, the mail schooner, Vigilant, run ming into St. Croix, F. w. l., is now under the French flag. but was built, SO I have been tolG, in 1802 of Essex oak at Essex. Mass, and was long un der the stars and stripes.
 But alas. Americans in these days can neither afford to build ships nor to sail them as American ships, except in the coastwise trade, where they are protected by law. It costs nearly one fourth more to build a steel stsamship in America than in England 'Or Ger many, and when they are built they are either not as good or are more unlucky. The underwriters records show that American built ships do not stand the racket compared with the Clyde output.
