 Wm. Mill Williams came down from the old Gray mine Tuesday with his partner, A. Kent, of Jamestown, New York, and the latter departed for his eastern home and MT. Williams re- turned to the mines. Being away from home we could not interview Mir. Kent on the subject of his min ing interests but it is said by those who did talk with him that he was well pleased with the situation and showing at the mines and will join Mir. Williams in continuance of de- velopment work.
 Supt. w. B. Twitchell, of the Big Lead company, was visitor at the Blade sanctum Thursday and had some beautiful samples of chalcocite ore, commonly called copper glance. These samples were taken from the shaft now sinking on one of the cop per claims recently taken up by the Big Lead company on a working bond and MT. Twitchell states that there seems to be large body of this ore appearing in the works. He feels en- thusiastic over the strike and believes it will develop into something on the order of a real bonanza. This proper ty lies in the midst of the famous Ray group.

 A. L. Bowman is in from the Rain bow group of mines in the Bradshaws. He states that few days ago, on the Block Diamond claim of the Rainbow group, three feet of ore was struck, some of which carries values as high as $1S0 per ton. The general average of the pay streak is very good.-Oour- fer.
 Quite little excitement was occa- stoned in this city Saturday by a re- port that very rich placer diggings had been discovered on Granite creek about three miles south of this city. One prospector came into town and exhibited good sized bottle half full of dust which he alleged was the re- suit of three days washing and was valued at about S35.-Courier.
 The annual meeting of the stock holders of the Baumann Copper com pany was held on Monday evening, December 6, and the stock which has been issued was represented to within few thousand shares of the total amount. The directors elected were H. P. Anewalt, R. E. Morrison, R. E. Sloan, Jules Baumann, Ed Horne, George Schuerman, of Prescott and H. L. Dooley, of Peoria, III. A meeting | of the directors was held immediately after their election and the following were elected officers: H. P. Anewalt, president; R. k. Morrison, vice presi- dent; Jules Baumann, secretary ana general manage, and K. J. F. Horne treasurer. The present outlook for the company is brighter than it has been for months and arrangements are under consideration whereby the work of developing the properties will be commenced soon and pushed for ward as rapidly as possible Journal Miner.
 A carload of machinery arrived yes terday for the Burlington mining com pany. That company is making exten- sive improvements on it's property at present. Among the improvements which are being added for the conven. tent working of the mine are large four drill Sullivan compressor, install. lation of water plant, boiler, etc. The additional machinery which is being installed and the other improve ments being made will cost over sl0,- 900 when completed. T. E. Hawk yard, mining engineer of Maitland, South Dakota, examined the Burling. ton property recently and was well pleased with the conditions and the development, the latter as far as pro- gressed showing up well and giving good promise of making a paying mine.

property, which was formerly called the Davis camp. The Chiricahua company which is the same company to all intents and purposes that is operating the Bonanza Circle Mines has struck ore for certainty at the depth of 370 feet in its three compart- ment shaft. The ledge is twelve feet wide and is medium grade copper ore. Al Brockman and Jim White have made good strike at thirty feet in the shaft which they are putting down on their property. They have struck a four foot ledge which yields according to an average assay, 30 per cent copper and some silver.

Where Mining, the Chief Industry,
 Is very Active

From the International. American:
 Work of enlargement of the Calu- met X Arizona smelter is now pro- gressing well. A duplication of the present power house is now about com plete and the construction of two new furnaces has been ordered and are ex- pected to be ready for operation early in the new year The properties of the Calumet & Arizona at Bisbee have been proven beyond the question of doubt and ore is now blocked and ready tu feed half dozen large fur naces for many years.
 It was learned today from thor oughly reliable source that consider able more has been planned for the enlargement of the Copper Queen smelter than has yet been made pub lie by newspaper announcement. At present three of the old furnaces are being transferred to the plant in this city. This was stated several days ago. In addition to this plans have been adopted for the extension of the smelter shed west sufficient dist ance to accommodate three more en- tirely new furnaces the size of the ones now in use. Further, it is known that instead of one additional con- verter stand metioned sometime ago as having been agreed upon, two con- verter stands will be provided as fast as possible.
 The Calumet & Arizona company, through its representatives, Messrs. Hovland and Smith, have been quiet ly at work during the past six weeks buyirg mining claims, most of which were located last year, until glance at map of the district shows that they have succeeded in obtaining ex. actly two sections of land in the flat lying between Don Luis station and Osborne station. It is very evident that the Calumet & Arizona company have plans in the direction of Don Luis and Osborne. Just what those plans are at present have not been made public. It may be smelter site or townsite, probably both-surely one or the other.
 Bisbee Review:
 Harry Holborn, of Paradise, is in town and is engaging help here and at Douglas for the Cochise Consoli- dated Copper Company, of the Chiri- cahuas. He states that big force of men is to be put on at once and that he is making arrangements to employ one hundred men as soon as he can get them. The Cochise is rapidly proving to be good one and will soon be a producer on paying basis. In the Treasury shaft at little depth a ledge of copper ore four feet wide was recently struck which yields from $75 to $40 pei ton. This ore is good ship ping ore and will be mined on an ex- t,nsive scale. The stock in this com pany which was organized in Pitts burg has gained a hundred per cent in value since tho ore strike was made c. B. James is the manager of the

The Weeks Mining News as Re-
 ported by the Miner

It is reported that Sam Butler has made deal on his mines on Bill Will. fam Fork with Los Angeles people.
 It is probable that the Arizona Bull lion Mining company will begin the operation of the Elkhart mine after the first of the year on large scale.
 J. F. Burkhart, Los Angeles min ing man, is in Kingman, and it is rumored that he is about to close a deal on the Tyro group of mines, in the Union Pass section. The deal will probably be settle d up today. A large amount of money is involved in the transaction.
 George W. Jonas, of the Standard Gold Mining company, was in King man few days ago. He reports that he is getting things in shape for ex- tensive work on the mines of the com. pany, in Mohave Wash. A hoistinp plant will soon be in place on the pro- perty and work ofsinking commenced.
 Work is progressing nicely on the Twins and Blue Lode mines, near Ger. bat, now under bond to L. D. God shall. Should these mines prove up well it is the intention of Mr. God. snail and associates to install smel. ter of large capacity in Kingman to treat the ores, while at the mine a milling plant will be installed to dress the ores into shape for smelting.
 J. S. Withers paid visit to the Un- ion Pass country this week, going as far as the Katherine mines near Pyra. mid. He reports that the Katherine is showing up wonderful body of ore of a splendid milling grade. At the Tyro two men are at work and string. CTS of rich ore are being encountered in the tunnel now being run to cut the main vein of the group. One of the stringers has width of six inches and carries gold value of $2OO and fifty ounces silver. Other mines in that section are being worked by own CTS and leasers and good results are being obtained. Mr. Withers believes that the Union Pass SC ction will be come one of the greatest mining dis. tricts in the territory within year.

From the Copper Era:
 During the month of November the Arizona Copp 1T company shipped l23l tlnS of BeSSemer copper. During the year 1904 this company will ship-De ember estimated II, ,350 tons of cop. per.
 George F.. Stevens, who owns a mum Der of good gold claims on the west 1 side of the Coronado mountain, was l in town last week, and reports that he recently struck ore which averages S60 per ton in gold. The vein is about a iOot in width, but is continuous. He now has fifty tons on the dump which he is sure will average more than $50 per ton.
 During the month of November the shannon company outputted l,02O,0O0 pounds of copper, which is about its average run. For the past two weeks or more this company has had control | Ot its tailings, thus settling this vexa- l tious question in so far as the Shan lOl company is concerned. This will De good news to the people of the val Icy as it shows that the companies are acting in good faith, and carrying out their promises.
 MeSSrS. Crawford and Await, who recently shipped five tons of ore from their new gold mine at Gold Hill to El Paso, have received returns which are entirely satisfactory. The ore was agCneral average from the dump, and returned $50 gold and F per cent lead, which was as well or better than was expected. This shipment was merely to give the owners an idea of the general average of the ore, which has now been ascertained. Develop ment work will be continued, but it can now be regarded as definitely set ted that a concentrating plant will be arranged for, as there Is already suf' fCient amount of ore on the dumps and in sight in the mine to justify the expenditure.
 Dick Lakenan of Gold gulch, whose nine is now producing about the rich est ore to be found in the territory, is pushing his development work with a small force, but the men are taking oOt from S75 to Sl00 worth of ore each per day. A few days ago MT. Lake pan made an effort to stock his pro- Ierty in order to develop it. The mine had good reputation and many people agreed to take stock. He went lO work and put the property in shape aud asked prospective investors to come and have look at it. Some of them did and some did not, but time rolled around, as it has way of do log, and still no money was raised. Finally Dick got desperate, and told lhem all that they had his consent to Seek a warmer climate. His financial
 onditiOn was then in such shape that De either had to strike shipping ore or sYe up the property. He put in a nand of shots, and when they were aied he was the happiest man in America, for they blew out ore which
 'as worth hundreds and even thou
 ald5 of dollars per ton. He is now
 laSing big money and owns the en-
 DFe property himself, which he thinks
 $ much better than fooling with g
