 ] S. s. Campbell. manager of the Chase , Creek Copper company. has returned ] to his home at Brookline. Mass. He has had charge of the company's in terests in Clifton for the past SIX | months. He reports the outlook ex- , ceedingly bright.
 L. A Rockwell and E. R. Stewart, of Chicago. recently visited the property of the Consolidated Mining company. , in which they are stockholders. Their |. mines are located in the Guijas moun- tains about fifty miles north of Tue son. and not far from the Mexican line Messrs. Rockwell and Stewart were |, accompanied by C. w. Geddes. a Guggenheimer expert from Fl Paso, , who made and examination on the property. Although the mine is idle at thepresent time, it has the reputa- ton of being an excellent property which would not be shut down at the present time, but for mismanagement There Is a steam stamp mill, con
 
 , plant an the property. After visiting ] the mine, MT. Rockwell returned 10 ] Chicago. and Mir. Stewart went on to Los Angeles on other mining busi- ness.
 The Michigan < Arizona Develop , ment company. of which F. B. Chase . is superintendent, is steadily pushing , development work in the Isle Royal shaft of the Helvetia mine. 2S miles 1 south of Tucson. The shaft is nov 1 down $50 feet. Mir. Close expects to ! cut sulphide ore body at a depth of about soc feet. The diamond drill Is being used in exploring surround ing claims with encouraging results Thirty men are employed at this prop

 | Secretary Nichols of the Polaris
 company reports the best strike ever
 made Tn their property. The strike was made at the intersection of the
 Phonolite tunnel with the Golden
 Eagle lead. The lead was cut by
 the tunnel S5 feet below the former
 lowest working on the lead, where
 six feet of ore of an average value of
 s10 per ton was found, besides twelve
 feet of concentrating ore worth about
 ss per ton. It is thought the vein at
 that depth will average in width and value along the vein the same as at that point struck by the tunnel. Drifts will be run through the vein from the tunnel hence d few weeks will determine the value of the strike
 The Wilcox Range News reports that on the property recently bonded by George H. Wilson and H. O. Davis from Lucy in the Dos Cabezas dis trict, big strike was made. Ore was taken out and brought to Wilcox which showed plainly an abundance of free gold In all Messrs Wilson
 and Davis have a group of eight
 claims. upon which some eigthy feet
 of ore has been performed in various places. All the workings so far have
 been in ere. Silver in fair quantity
 seems to be in evidence in many
 places. numerous assays yielding on
 an average of 29 ounces silver. ? 1-2 Der cent copper and s2 in gold. Speci-
 men samples have assayed as nigh as
 o1 ounces silver. ' per cent copper and s4 gold
 Louis Straus. of Louis Straus & Co, Of New York, buyers Of rare metals, visited Tucson lately to con suit with Sampson & Rrant in refer ence to the purchase of tungsten ore produced by the Centennial ill the
 Guijas mountains. It is reported
 authoratively, that an offer was made
 to Sampson & Bent of s165 a ton
 Tor their tungsten ore on the cars at Tucson, but that the offer was refused as the mine is on the market. The ore averages about 50 per cent lungs ten acid. The property was discover. ca a number or years ago, but not until 1898 did the owners know that it
 was tungsten When the price went up during the Spanish-American war they sold a number of carloads of this ore. the returns from which were spent in developing the mine. Sid
 ney Rosenbaum. of Levi Straus & Co,
 who visited this property a month ago, Is said to have stated that there is
 but one richer in the world, and :bat is located in the Ural mountains.

 ton company is now sinking below the
 400, and expects to reach the 800 in side of 60 days. On the 401 the ore
 body is one of the largest ever opened in Arizona. considering it's great rich ness, says the Kingman Miner. The mine is a surprise to even the officers of the company. who were not look ing for anything like the property is
 proving to be. For more than 200
 feet the outcrop is showing great val ues. and several shafts are in conte a. plation on the Gold Line and Billy Bryan locations. At the mill. the new lcr,IahQre ara ;p r1oro
