 Yesterday the Review man had the pleasure of visiting these new proper ties in little red wagon in company with Mir. Behler the genial head ierk of the Calumet & Bisbee company. The two properties above naned are unquestionably very intimately con nected in more ways than one. MT Scott Turner is conducting the deVet ment operations on both. and they seem to be practically identified in eV cry respect
 The progress made in sinking the both properties is, to say the least, remarkabI The ground on the Cal umet & Bisbee was broken on the 18th day of January of this year, and yes terday they were down over POO feet. the first 70 feet or more beirg done with a windlass. Now the camp has assumed the proportions Of town. with commodious boarding house, Of. fees and evry thing necessary or convenient for prosecuting the work to a finish. The shaft is stil in lime, which is inclined to form cayaties and small caves. lined, with beautiful crys- ;aIs They will not need their large hoist at the c. x B. for some months, but the conrete foundations had been laid ir order that it will have sn op- portuniJy to settle. and become per fect'y solid by the time the hoist ar riyes. The new hoist. along with q compressor. and the necessary foiJer capacity will probably be added inside of ninety days.
 Last Friday. the little hoist for mi tial work on the Calumet & Coehise was unloaded from the cars and taken over 10 the scene of operation The pipe line was completed that evening, and yesterday. water was on the ground 1t is quise a drive from the C. & B. to the c. & C., the best route being around the Don Louis end Of the range but the two properties join. and a tunnel or drift cou,d oayemently con, meet them.
