IN THE TIMING FIELD Operations of Interest Throughout the County of
 COChise, Arizona and Sonora
SOME RAPID DEVELOPMENT.
 ALONG GREAT AMERICAN NIL

The activity of the mining industry along the Colorado river is on the in- crease and the outlook for miners is un- | usually bright, says the Yuma Senti- nei. In doing assessment work a l great deal of ore has been uncovered. A company owning properties. one of the richest being the Rattan mine, has erected mill at Hardyville which | is only intended for prospecting pur- poses; eight stamps are being operat-- s led. After determining the best prop critics a twenty-stamp mill will be | built
 The famous Eldorado Canyon mine, which has remained idle for number of years, is owned by an eastern com pany that will shortly resume work. The same company owns the Klon- dyke mine and mill.
 | The Searchlight road is now in oper- ation and the ore is transported o1 cars a distance of twelve miles to/fhe | Colorado River, where the mil/fs sit uated. The Sheep Trail mi1s>and mill will soon resume operatie1s In fact work will be carried oR>to a great ex- 1 tent this coming season all along the 1 Colorado river. The great hindrance appears Q be lack of fuel, but the
 companies have not decided to use oil, which will be forwarded by steamer
 on ths/CoIorado.
 l IH the Gold Basin district a large Lforce Of men are at work where the I owners for sCne time had uphill work, but better days now begin to appear. The last run showed they doubled in
 gold any previous run made. They re- gently struck very rich vein that goes in the hundreds.
 The Cyclopia property is also situat-
 ed in Gold Basin and the Cyanide pro
 cess is used for the extraction of values. The company has erected a
 fine plant and employs a large force of men.
 The Senator mine and mill are locat-
 ed further up the river about twenty
 miles and adjacent to the Grand Can yon. The mill is now running on rich
 ere and it is predicted the clean up will be big one. The ore is haul
 ed eight miles. This mill is the farth-
 est up the river excepting the Temple
 Bar. which is the last one toward the
 north
 The famous Redner copper mines approached by the way of Pine Creek. is situated in Coconino county, sixty
 miles above the Grand Canyon, the ore being gray copper. The shipments
 show how rich the mine is. The low
 est car ever taken out of the mine re- alized s2.500 at the smpling works at
 kingman. To all appearances the
 mine is a mountain of copper. One shaft one hundred feet down. shows a
 well formed body of rich ore. This mine may be considered the largest and richest yet discovered on the Col
 rado river. A peculiar feature is tke
 immense quantity of rich float scatter
 ed inall directions, it being a mystery
 from whence it emanates.

GLOBE MATTERS THAT
 ARE SAD TO CHRONICLE

A gentleman from Globe says, that the camp is in a sorry way That the Miners Union signed a protocol drawn up by the mining managers in the camp. and then never attempted to en- force their: end of it. That the finan- cial secretary of the union furnished the companies with list of the union men in the camp, whereupon they were all promptly let out by the o. D., the U. c. and even the Seabote's combi- nation over on Mineral Creek. Every thing considered, poor old Globe is not over her troubles.

PROPiTOUS NEW YEAR.
 USHEREQ IN HIS MORNING

New Year eve was ushered in with a quiet, steady, and protracted rain as if the old year which has done so cause it could no no more. The pre- cious fluid, drawn from the ocean wave, waited by the winds of heaven for countless leagues and precipitated by the cool invigorating ozone of Ari- zona, sank silently into the thirsty earth, clearing the atmosphere as it descended carrying the germs of pesti- lence and contagion down to natures mighty laboratory, where all things are made pure. Replenishing springs and wells and reservoirs, and sending the mountain streams once more sing ing upon their beneficent mission. Most people pray for rain till they have to reinforce the knees of their overalls with sole leather. then it can't rain more than 10 minutes till they are praying for it to quit. The recent gracious rains are a splendid new years gift to the miner, and stock man and every body else. In the mean time the good work went steadily on in the discovery hole and prospect shaft. The foundation for unexampled operations is being laid by a thousand brawny arms. and the march of un- paralleled industrial progress in Ari zoDa in Cochise county and in the only Warren district is accelerated with every drop of rain and flake oi snow that falls.

LOCATES SOME CLAIMS IN
 SOLOMON SPRINGS DISTRICT

Gus Landau came up from the Solo mon spring district Wednesday where he has been doing some discovery work. He reports that section on fire with mining enthusiasm. Two claims recently located by himself and other parties just this side of the Glance sation, a short time ago are claimed by party who is out locating by the whole sale for a certain company, but the claim is not likely to stick as Gus had plenty of witnesses 0l hand when the location was made and is not in the least disturbed by the adverse as sertions of the gentleman above re- ferred to.

SUNDAY DISTRICT.
 IS HAVING GOOD OFFEPs

George Moore is just in from the gold district. From him we learn that a gentleman. whose name he would nS disclose had just made him flat tering offer for the EsDeranza and Evening Star. owned by Moore, Port Morse and Harry Mccoy George was foxy and deferred the matter till he could confer with his partners Tn the meantime he found out that the would be purchaser had prosnected the property and bod found a splendid rrospect oD a prominent ledge running through the above named properties. and into the Peggy" owned by Moore brothers and Bloodso. George has named their property fine Three NJ group as it is owned by Messrs. Moore. Mccoy and Morse. They have 8 finer prospect on the surface than the Easter Sunday enjoyed at their stage of development.
 Their property is split by promi- nent lime dyke. The impression has prevailed among miners that the values lay on the south side of this dyke only but these discoveries have changed that idea in the last four days.
 Messrs. Johnson. Davis and McKin- sey who own the brand new Ten Spot" just this side of the Easter Sun day. have about completed their dis covery work on their ten promising claims These gentlemen are out for business and the prospects are that their labors will be richly reward ed in the near future
