United Verde.

Monday the new shaft at the
United Verde reached q depth OF
800 feet. The two shifts that have
been at work sinking to the 500
will be continued until the 500 is
reached. They are making about
two feet day, which will require
another so days to complete the
work now planned for the shaft.
In making the new shaft q sui
phide ore was struck on the 600,
and the shaft has never been of
it since. 1t will be remembered
tnat a drift was run from what was
then considered the main body of
the United Verde ore to supposed
ground. The 200 feet Of ore from
the 600 to the 500, is only part Of

A Rich Strike.

Report comes to us that the mines
Of O. Dea and Dempsy are prov
ing to be the richest properties ever
discovered in this county. As yet
only the discovery work has been
done on them, but so far as the
openings have been made the ores
have improved in value. In look
ing over the hanging wall OF the
main location, a few days ago, Mr..
O'Dea discovered an eighteen inch
streak Of ere that fairly gli8tcns
with gold, This steak outcrops to
o hight OF several feet above the
ground and can be taken down
without the use of powder 1t is
estimated that there is enought Of
this ore in sight above ground to
net the owners more than $4,000,
while in the outcrop on other parts
Of the vein the estimate runs as
high as 100000. The vein is fully
forty feet in width and in no part
does it not show vaules in horn
spoon. The ore shows continuous
for length OF 700 feet with no
break. People are beginning to
realize that the vein is immense
and carries almost fabulous values
in gold, and prospectors are being
outftted to go into that section to
try and and get something close in.
Three claims have been located on
the vein by the discoverers, while

The following story is going the
rounds Of the press; A farmer Of
Indiana had a novel experience. A
few years ago he built a small barn
and in it's construction used green
willow posts at the corners and
along the sides. For some time
nothing unusual was noticed, but
after year he saw that whereas
he laid the floor near the gound, it
was three feet above the soil. He
discovered that the willow posts,
instead of b being d c q d,
we're alive. had taken root and
were growing. In their upward
movement they had carried the
barn along. Last spring the barn
was on stills nine feet high and he
put in new floor and surrounded
the posts with siding, thereby
making two-story affair. There
is now & space Of seven inches be-
tween the new floor and the ground
and the owner expects to have q
three-story barn in the course Of
time.

Work Has Been Resumed on the
Eastern Sugar Factory.

Glendale, Nov. 7.-(Special.)- (Corre-
spondence of the Republican.)-It is
quite a common thing to hear visitors
remark as to the absence, or rarity,
CT private gardens among US. Ard it's
a true count OF course we who have
lived here for years, and perhaps eX-
perimented often, can name dozen
causes for this condition. We are
young yet. and efforts~to beautify our
surroundings come, as a rule, when
industrial conditions are more firmly
stablished. 1t has not been a sure
thing, at least hereabouts, that we
would stay with the land another year,
and the water supply has been an
certain, and is yet. Then conditions
as to culture, varieties, etc, are vastly
different from those existing in the
old home state, and everything must be
learned anew. So it is only a few en-
thusiastic students who have made any
definite success in raising plants and
flowers so far, for the ordinary man
likes to have his way marked clear.
But, spite of all this, there should be
no ceasing of efforts on this line. The
conditions of climate and soil are all
in our favor-au we want is to know
how to use them. What others have
done we can all do. to some extent
al least. And now that a new era
seems at hand of better and more per-
manent conditions, there should be
start by everyone in the culture of
beautiful things to adOrn the solid
prosperity to be.

reason assigned for not commencing
the work at once was lack CT teams
and men, but the members of the

over thirty teams and men to go with
them that were available. The execu-
