 Cbas. Douglas returned from Box canyon, Tuesday, after completing the location work on two mining < claims belonging to himself and M brlther. He brought with him sack M ofore samples from the claims, con # SSting of lead carbOnates and galena < The samples look rich in lead and gold, and the vein from which the, were taken is of unusual width. At # fine points where the location work N was done the vein is from eight to N nine feet wide, and MT, Douglas states, & that the carbonate pay-streak has a width of six feet. He had a sample of this ore assayed and the return was E S7 gold per ton and 2S per cent lead, certainly a great showing when the great width of the pay-streak is con sidered. This will make good ship ping ore when the railroad is com pleted. Florence Blade.

Thompson of Cliff ton for the sum of S25,OOO. The com pany is stocked for 1000 shares, and as MT. Thompson has control of the company, he will at once proceed with the development of the property on a more extensive scale than here tofore. The claims adjoin holdings of the Arizona Copper company on the Coronado mountains and have a num- beroteX'ellent ledges running through them. Some of the richest ore in the district has been taken from these claims, but their great wealth is in the lower grade ores, of which the property has wonderful showing. Mr. Tanner has owned these claims aoout fifteen years, and during the past few years he has done more than 1000 feet of work on then.-Cllfton Copper Era.
