Order Brick for Big Plant.

Definite report has it that the Calu- met & Arizona has just placed an or. der with big El Paso firm for 36O,OOO brick, which will be hauled from that place to Lowell. Speculative deduc. tion has it that the company will erect an immense reduction works not far from Bakervile for the purpose of handling the native copper that occurs in its properties. At the present time a churn drill is in operation, in the open flat below Lowell. Statements that this drill is being driven for ex :. plOration purposes are not we'll found- ed. If the Calumet & Arizona company desired to explore ground it would hardly be done with cburn drill that is slow and expensive. It already has several diamond drills for that pur- pose.
 The fact of the matter must be that the Calumet & Arizona is operating that churn drill for the urpose of de veloping water supply which will be used to furnish it's reduction plant.
 The Copper Queen company has al. ready learned by experience that it loses every day considerable copper, which enters the smelters in it's native state. At this late day the old slag dumps of ten or fifteen years ago are being shipped to Douglas for rework ing. The Calumet X Arizona has con. siderable native copper in its mines hereabouts, and to have this go through the plant at Douglas means large loss.
 The reduction works near Lowell will handle this class of rich ores. and before long the saving alone will have paid for an im mense plant. The pur- chase of such large nun Der of brick m El Paso must mean something and it is safe to conclude that the brick and churn drill pre-age the erection of big plant that will add much to the life of the Warren mining district. -Bisbee Miner.

That Tired Feelingi

If you are languid, depressed and in capable for work, it indicates that your liver is out of order. Heroine will as- sist nature to throw off headaches, rheumatism and ailments akin to ner. vousness and restore the energies and vitality of sound and perfect health. J. J. Hubbard, Temple, Texas, writes, March P, 1902: "I have used Heroine for the past two years. It has done me more good than all the doctors. When 1 feel bad and have that tired feeling, I take dose of Heroine. tis the best medicine ever made for chills and fe. ver." Scots bottle. For sale by H. H. Watkins.

Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

Tim Nay, Ed. Purcell and John Thompson have taken lease on the east end of the Leland mine and the north end has been leased to other parties. It is stated that the mine shows streaks of immensely high grade ore, just the thing for chloriding on, and the boys are sure of making nice clean up.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

Major w. A. Mensch, who is superin tending work on the Fletcher mines on Stockton Hill, is sending a great deal of ore to Kingman. In three of the mines now being worked good lead ore is being extracted. In the drift on the Star Spangled Banner the ore streak is nearly three feet in width, while in the Iufallible the ore is show. ing up big and strong. While the ore body in the Alta is somewhat broken the grade is exceptionally high. About twenty five men are now at work on the mines and more are being added to the force.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

F. c. Robie, who has been in charge of the Fletcher mining camp, near lbex, arrived in Kingman last night and will go out to the Stockton Hill country today to again enter the Em ploy of the Fletcher Com pany.

Mines of the County

The Leland people are running ten stamps of the mill on ores from the outside mines, the Midnight furnish ing large part of the tonnage. This mine is one of the good properties of the district and the com pany is rush ing work on it.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

J. D. Jordan, who has taken a 300 foot contract to drift on the 3Oo and 400 levels of the Golden Gem mine, already has force of men at work and is making good headway.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

The Gold Road company has in con tem mplation many important improve ments for the betterment of it's mill. ing plant. One of these is the change from dry to wet milling. Already wa ter sufficient for this purpose has been developed near Little Meadows and by the converging of the many springs in the canyon south of Little Meadows and the establishment of large pump. ing plant st that point all the water will be forced over the mountain. As soon as the pipe lines have been laid it is the intention of the company to also pump the oil, which is used as fuel, over the mountain, thus obviating the heavy mountain haul. A carload of pipe was received this week and is being hauled out to Little Meadows, and within a. few days a carload of larger pipe and fittings is expected to arrive. When these improvement have been made the company intends to in- stall amalgamators in the mill for the purpose of taking up the heavy gold before the pulp goes to the cyanide tanks. In this greater saving of values will be effected.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

Many teams are engaged in hauling tim Der and mining material to the c. O. D. and Stockton Hill mines of the Fletcher company. A carload of steel rails were received the first of the week and are being shipped to the mines for use in the adit drifts in the Alpha and Infallible mines.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

The Fletcher company is building a road from Layne Springs to connect with the Ark road to Mineral, on the Arizona X Utah railroad. A large force of Indians and several white men are at work on the grade. Considerable rt ok work will have to be done along the proposed route and miners are now at work blasting it out. The road will be rushed to completion, to allow of ore being hauled out during the com ing month. A nun Der of men are at work on the mine driving the new tun nel below the old workings As soon as this tunnel taps the ore body it is thought that the new copper shelter can be run independently on this ore. There is already an immense amount of copper ore opened up in the old works and stopiDg will be commenced on this within few weeks. Contracts have been let for the hauling of forty tons of ore daily from the mine to the railroad.

The Gold Giant company has pur. chased the old Homestake mill And in. tend to remove it to the Mossback mines sometime in August next. The mill is of twenty stamps capacity and is considered one of the economical plants ever brought into the country, the handling of the ore from the raw state to bullion being automatic. This mill is erected on the Homestake mine and is fitted up with hoisting plant, air drills and all kinds of labor saving devices. The company is installing a twelve horse power hoisting plant on the Mossback mine and intend to drive the shaft to a depth of at least 300 feet. When this has been accomplished the ground above that point will be throughly exploited. Dr. Slocum, who is iu charge of the property, is one of the best mine managers on the coast and is making rapid head way in the development of this property.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

F. H. Griffith, general manager of the Minnesota Connor mine, was in Kingman few days ago on his way home from trip to the Val Verde smelter, where he made arrangements for the shipment of his product. It is said that this smelter makes an ex. ceptionally good rate on certain ores.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

$. c. Bagg, general manager of the New Comstock mines, reports that he has struck two foot vein of 2OOS gold ore in crosscut from the Sheeptrail mine. The vein is an entirely new one, no ou'crop showing on the surface. There is no doubt that the Sheeptrail group is one of the best bunch of mines In San Francisco district, although little has been done on them the past several years. At the time of the closing down of the property by the eastern people the vein had been los [ and no effort was made to find it. At the point where the vein disap. peared the ground was badly broken and the ore was scattered through con
 siderable extraneous matter. In all the mines at certain level the ore bodies were badly scattered and the owners became disgusted and decided to discontinue work, afterward selling all their machinery and the mines to the New Comstock people. These peo. pie have been Investigating tie old workings with the result that the lost vein has been found and a new ore bearing vein discovered. A twenty. stamp mill on the Colorado river, fully equipped with plates and cyanide plant, is in readiness to handle the ores from this property. It is neces. sary for the company to expend con, siderable money in getting the mines in shape before results can be had.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

c. D. Pickering was in Kingman Thursday, on his way to the San Fran cisco mine, after visit in Los Angeles We understand that on the lower level of the mine two foot body of ship ping ore has been opened up and reg ular shipments to the smelter are now being made from it. The strike is one of the most important ever made in the property and establishes the fact that it is the greatest mine in the Wallapai country. Thousands of tons of ore of a rich milling grade have been opened up in the mine and as soon as another lift has been sunk stopes will be opened and the mill started up. Work on the deepen ing of the shaft is already under way and will be pushed with machine drills Mr. Pickering is much pleased with the outlook of the propert and feels safe in saying that it is one of the big mines of the territory.
Mohave County miner., 1904-06-18

\ force of men went out to the c. O. D. mine Thursday last and work on the new shaft will be commenced at once. Superintendent Alexander is in charge of the work. The new shaft
 will be sunk to tap the vein below the old workings and will be two com.
 partment in size. The c. O. D. is con- sidered cue of the best mines in the district, having produced more ore than any mine in the county from above the 300 level. While much ore was taken from the mine, there is yet great deal of ore that can be handled at profit in the old stopes and in the veins running with ths big lenzes. At the 400, where the shaft rested for years, no effort was made to tap the ore body. It is thought that great ore will be opened up on the 400 and 800 levels when the new shaft reaches these poi its. The old shaft was sunk on the extreme east end of the ore
 body and on the lower levels but little ore was taken from east of the shaft. The new shaft will be sunk to cut the ore body in the center at the 400 level.
