 Mrs. Thorne was in the city yester- day from the Arizona Gold Mining company's camp at Florence, and left en route for New York. She is accom- panied by her little granddaughter, May, daughter of the late $. W. Thnrne, and the little lady will be placed at school in the empire state city. Mrs. Tborue expects to return about the end of October. She gives glowing accounts of the prospects at the mine, and describes the lodges of ore being opened up there as some- thing wonderful. The new mill is ex- pected to be running by July, and big dividends are expected immediately afterwards.
 The Journal Miner was the recipient yesterday from R. D. French, the we'll known commercial traveller of sam- pie lot of a new style and make of soap, the very latest made. It is cal led Floating Borax, the name of the brand being "Magno' which in plain English means great. It is said to be just what its name indicates as it will do the work required of soap in a thoroughly satisfactory manner. It is manufactured by the Standard Soap company of San Francisco and is sold by MT. French, who wants his friends when buying soap to call for Magno. He is taking orders here from the merchants and will send a carload in | here shortly.
 Walter Grimmer and wife came up from Octave yesterday, where they have been living for some time. They state that the ab we camp is becoming deserted entirely since the closing of the mine and mill of the Octave com pany. He states that placer mining is still in progress though principally by Mexicans who are making good wages in the operation. He states that not less than from s2OO and $500 per day is being taken out by them. Nuggets of all sizes and shapes are being found. A few days ago piece of quartz al most of the shape and thickness of a ordinary blotter was found, and i'm bedded in it was a chunk of gold the shape of rooster's comb. The gold was worth about $50.
 mill and large portion of it will run high enough to justify shipping to a shelter.
