very large attendance, 1t being
a beautiful afternoon, the lunch
was served on the fine lawn which
surrounds the house. Mrs. Oeth
was assisted in entertaining by
Mrs. Drexler.
In spite of the fact Ehat there
we're no electric lights during the
hour, and the church was dimly
lighted with lamps, the Christian
| Endeavor meeting OF last Sun
day night was very enjoyable
The attendance is increasing
every week. The REGULAR preach.
ing service WHICH followed was
splendidly ATTENDED. The congre-
gational singing was a marked
feature. The new song books,
with one OF which everyone was
provided, were an addition to
the interest in the music.
The social given by the Chris

at the home OF Miss Annie Olson,
was a great success. About %
young people gathered at the
little brick church and enjoyed
the walk of about a mile togeth-
er, after a short busiEess session,
games were introduced and
several hours spent In a most
Jolly and entertaining manner.
Dainty refreshments were served
by Miss Olson. Nothing more
beautiful than the moonlight
which frightened the way home

pleasant social occasions will be
held at frequent intervals.

MINING NEWS.


weeks the Octave people have been
milling ore which carries 800 per
ton gold. There is a vein of this
ore four feet wide.
Blade: The Gold road mine of
Mohave county made shipment
last week of two bars of gold bullion
worth 100000, said to he from a
seven days run of the cyanide plant
Mohave Miner: The Geo. A.
Treadwell Company will replace
the oil burning furnace in its smel-
ter at Mayer with the water jacket
process. The company has just
struck a body OF high grade ore at
the 800 foot level of the blackberry
mine.
Courier: w. L. Watkins, a miner
who has for the past five years
been prospecting in the neighbor-
hood of the Val Verde came into
Prescott yesterday and had in his
possession a bag of samples that
he obtained from a three foot ledge
five miles east of that point. OF
the specimens, one taken at hap
hazard returned an assay of $50
and he thinks that in this he has a
bonanza.
Silver Belt: Old Dominion
made another record run last
month, the production of blister
copper for April having slightly
exceeded 100000 pounds. The
result should certainly be very
gratifying to the company, and is
highly creditable to the local man
agement. 1t is said that the com
pany's net earnings for March
amounted to $4,000, and as a
higher average price was realized
for the April product, the net earn
ings should be almost if not quite
$4,000 However, the cost of all
underground work is now charged
against the net earnings, and from
the March figures $4,000 was de-
Quoted, which represented the cost
of sinking the new shaft.
Courier: F. A. Bletcher, is in
from the keystone mining group,
Turkey Creek, where he says he is
taking out ore which ranges in
value from 5000 to $500 a ton.
The ore which he is now taking
out comes from a new shaft which
is so feet deep. The lcdge is GO
feet wide. The rich vein matter is
from 80 to SO inches wide. The
values are gold, silver and copper.
He has carload of ore sacked for
shipment, and he figures that this
carload will yield $4,000. In
sacking the ore, it averages 3 to 1
high grade, The ore on the dump
is a good cyaniding proposition
and carries average values of
$16.40 per ton. There are three
other shafts on the group-each 80
feet deep, and 900, 100 and 300
feet apart, all showing the same
character of ore.
Review: The population of Para
disc is now nearly 400, and is grow
ing with every stage that comes
from Rodeo. Real estate is boom
ing. Lots that one week ago sold
for $25 have changed hands within
the last few days for $3.50. A bank
is to be started at once; several res
taurants are open, two or three
saloons, and Dick Brown, former
resident of Bisbee, has a general
