will be known under the title of Ell
lott & Drescher, the gentlemen com
posing the firm being W. W. Elliott,
one of the best known mill men in

member of the firm, has recently re-
signed his position with the Val Verde

properties, it is better that the mine
in the Jerome district be called the
Equator. 1t is the intention to start
up the Equator smelter just as soon as
the coke supply is sufficient to assure
continuous work, there and in Je-
rome. A supply has been ordered

cials express themselves as determined
to guard against another close down
on account of coke shortage if they
have to pile coke up on the DESERT

MINING INTELLIGENCE

Two Needles gentlemen have made a
discovery of rich ore on what was
once known as the Boudoin mining
claim, near the Sheeptrail, and re-
Gently shipped one sack of ore to the
Selby works that netted them over
5000. They have just taken three
sacks of the same grade of ore to the
Needles for shipment. The vein is
not a large one but the ore is wonder
fully rich. 1t is somewhat similar to
the rich ore found in the outcrop of
the Minnie mine, of the Sheeptrail
group and quite as rich. Specimens
exhibited in Kingman we're a mass of
very fine gold. -Kingman Miner.

Mountain Copper Mining and Smelt
ing company, which has large mining
interests at Middleton, to purchase
the Val Verde smelter for the purpose
of reducing the ores Of the company
and also for custom purposes. The
deal has finally been consummated
and the Bradshaw Mountain Copper
Mining and Smelling company will
take charge of the smelter some time
next month. There will be very little
change made in the management of
the institution, but there will be ad-
ditionl force employed, as it is pro-
posed to keep the smelter busy twenty
four hours a day hereafter. The com
pany which now owns the smelter has
enough alone to keep the plant run
ming, and there will be no occasion for
it to be closed down an hour after
they take charge of it.

G. K. Tibbetts, superintendent of
the Pau Gold Mining company, is in
from the properties on Cherry creek.
He reports things moving along
nicely at the mines and says he ex-
poets to strike the big ore body with
i'll the next few feet, should the dip
of the ledge be as they have calculat-
ed it would be. The big working
shaft is now down over 200 feet and
the cross cut, that is being run to tap
the ledge is in about 175 feet. Such
a body of water was encountered some
time ago that it has taken the combin-
ed efforts of two pumps to keep the
mine clear of water, but that is a very
good fault, as the water will come in
hand when the new mill is up. The
machinery for a prospecting stamp
mill has been ordered and is expected
to ARRIVE at the property within the
next week, and they have enough ore
that has been taken out in develop
ment to keep the mill running. They
expect to be able to handle about if
teen tons of ore per day with the new
mill. Mr.. Tibbetts says he feels sure
that as soon as they strike the big
ledge for which they are driving they
will have a very valuable property.
Weekly Arizona journal-miner., 1904-01-27

The mine contracting firm of Hah-
mel, Jones & Shearm, who have recent
ly taken large contract on the Old
Mesa Gold company's property ad-
Joining the Poland mines, in Big Bug,
are working three eight hour shifts,
and are making splendid progress.
The tunnel is now into the mountain
800 feet and is as straight as an arrow.
They are doing splendid work. The
share holders in this company are
quite anxious about this work, as it
is expected that when the ledge is
caught for which their tunnel is being
driven they will have a regular bo-
nanza. There has been chunks of ore
taken out of this property the size of
a mans fist, which was one half pure
solid gold. This company is made
up of Prescott men, whose judgment
was certainly good in securing this
property. In most Of cases our best
properties have been picked up by
outside parties.

NJ. c. Sharpneck, who has had
charge OF the steam stamp mill at the
Ideal company's property on Groom
creek, during the absence of his
brother, f. l.. Sharpneck, in the east,
came in from the property this morn
ing and will go to Kirkland this eve
ming to start up his stamp mill near
that place. The plant has been closed
down during the time he has been at
the Ideal property, but will probably
be running steadily from this time on.
Mr.. Sharpneck purchased the Home

ores from his property will be milled

on the ore before closing down averag
