Sheriff Walter Brown brought a 30,OOO$ bar of gold bullion from the Gold Road mill last Wednesday night. These bars are are now coming in weekly and it is quite probable that a Christmas dividend is in contempla- tion.

J. E. Carney, who has been operat- ing the J. F. T. group of mines, in the Stockton Hill section, departed Thurs day evening to Denver, where he will spend the holidays with friends. It is his intention to ra6 urn to this county about the 9th of January and proceed with the development of the mines. Owing to an influx of water pumping plant will have to be installed at the mine and for this purpose large boil CT will be purchased and put on the property, to be later followed by a steam holster.

The Benedictine company, which is supposed to have taken over the Cedar Valley mining company's property and much of the other properties of the Cedar district, is preparing to start up work soon after the first of the year. A big tank wagon has been received at Yucca for the purpose of hauling oil to the mine, for fuel purposes.

The Signal Copper Company, operat- ing the Copper Prince mine, in the Bill Williams Fork section, has struck a wonderful body of ore. The shaft is 100 feet deep in new ground. This ore was found in section of the property where mining men believed no ore to exist. J. A. Britton is in charge of the property for the company and is making a big success. More men are to be put on and work pushed ahead as rapidly as possible.

It is reported that the Osborne Wardwell group of mines, near the mouth of Bill Williams Fork, have opened up wonderful bodies of rich gold-copper ores. Machinery is to be placed on the mines at once and a great deal of work mapped out. E. s. Osborne, one of the owners of the group, who was at Yucca a few days ago, reported that he would have quite an army of men atwork shortly after the first of the year. He has gone to Pasadena, where he will con- fer with his associate and will return to the mines about the first of the month.

A cave on No. level, of the Samoan mine, owned by the Chloride Gold Mining Company, opened up body of ore carrying big values in native sill yer. This ore was quite unexpected and has caused considerable excite ment at the mine. On the lower level north the ore body continues in width and richness as it is driven ahead. At the present time the property never looked better and the low shelter rates and freight tolls gives it advan- tages never before enjoyed.

w. J. Connor, Santa Fe agent at Yucca, has located the old Pride of the Pines group of mines, in old Wau- ba Yuma district, Wallapai mountain, and is about to do large amount of work on them. Samples taken from one of the big veins of the group ran as high as l6O0$ gold, while an aver age of the vein for 5000 feet gave re- suit of l3$ to the ton. The mines are in the mountain, close to water and timber. Several people are making an examination of the properties with view to doing some work.

Last week we mentioned that the Elkhart mine had been sold to Los Angeles people. The property has been taken over by Douglas x Reeves and N. G. Douglas, of the firm, is at the mines operating force of men. The sale of the mines was promoted by w. A. Bondurant, of Los Angeles, who has been one of the most success full mining promoters on the coast. MT. Bondurant was at the mine this week and reports that on the Bullion claim great ore was being extracted. Two carloads of the ore will be ship ped to the shelter at Humbolt. This ore is said to be very rich in silver and carries fully seventy per cent lead. The new owners of the property in- tend to put the big mill in commission and work over several thousand tons of tailings and low grade ore. These tailings at small cost can be made to run over POS to the ton, which will net nice sum of money under present conditions. The Elkhart mine is con- sidered one of the greatest lead-silver properties in the Chloride section.

On the 6UO level of the Gold Road mine the ore body is showing up won- derful proportions. Below point where little if any ore was found on the 800 level the ore shows a width of 8 feet and averages more than 1OOS to the ton in gold. Drifts are being car ried east and west from the shaft and good ore is found in each. On the 800 level the biggest bodies of ore are found, being far and away richer than on the level above and longer by more than 100 feet. It is considered the greatest gold mine in the United States by mining men conversant with conditions at the property.
Mohave County miner., 1905-12-23

Jerome Tracy, P. H. and E. G. Smith, who have been doing assess ment work on the molybdenite mines, in Cedar district, arrived in Kingman yesterday. The mines show wonderful bodies of molybdenite, but it will have to be separated from it's associated copper before it can be marketed. The main vein of the group is more than ten feet wide and carries large per- centages of copper and molybdenite. It is expected that this class of ore can be separated and handsome profits made from it. The metal is used in hardening and toughening steel and surpasses tungsten for this purpose. The copper is in form that can be readily separated from the gangue.
 H. H. Watkins this week received notice that he had been awarded sill yer medal by the Louisiana Purchase Exposition for the best display of gold and silver ores from Mohave county. The notice was in the shape of dip- loma, accompanying which was a noti- tication that the medal would be struck at the Philadelphia mint and forwarded to him at once. The dis play of Mohave county ores at the St. Louis exposition was the best from the territory and received many commen- dations. It was gathered by Probate Judge Charles Metcalfe. MT. Wat kins generously supplied the dressing for the display from his handsome cab inet of gold and silver ores. This cab inet is said by those who know to be the finest collection of ores in the ter ritOry and possibly on the Coast.

fierce desire Tor vengeance He stole down to the
ravine that held the aery and prowled about for
hours seeking place where he could climb to the
ledge. 1t inaccessible however; and the eagles,
knowing this, looked down upon his prowlings with
disdanful serenity Then he mounted the nearby
cliff and peered down directly into the nest. But
finding himself still far off ever, and the eagles
still undisturbed. he gave up the hope of an imme
diate settlement of his grudge and lay in wait for
the chances of the Wilderness
He was frank enough, however, in his declaration
of war: for whenever the eagle went winging low
over his rocky lookout he would rise and snarl up at
him dehantly. The great bird would bend his
flight lower as if to accept this challenge but having
a wise respect for those long Jaws and white fangs
which the fox displayed 50 literally, he took care
not to come within their reach.
A few days later, while Red Fox hunting
down in the valley, the foX-puppies We're playing
just in the mouth of the den when they their
slim mother among the rocks. In puppy-l1ke
frolic of welcome they rushed meet her, feeling
secure in her nearness. When they were half way
across the open in front of the den there came
sudden shadow above them. Like flash they
scattered-all but one which crouched flat and
stared rresoutely. There a dreadful whisting
sound in the air, pounce of great Tapping wings
and wide-reaching talons, a strangled yelp of
terror, and before the mother foXs leap could
reach the spot the red puppy was snatched up and
carried away to the bealls of the eaglets.
When he learned about this Red Fox felt such
fury as his phiosophic spirit had never known
before He paid another futile visit to the foot OF the
eagles rock; and afterward for days wasted much
time from his hunting in the effort TO devise some
means of getting at his foe. He followed the eagles
flight and foragng persstently, seeking to be on the
spot when the robber made a kill But the great
bird had such wide range that this effort seemed
likely to be a vain one. In whatsoever region Red
Fox might lie in wait in other would the eagle
make his kill. With its nmeasurabe superiority IN
power of sight the royal marauder had no trouble
in avoiding his enemys path 50 that Red Fox was
under surveillance when he least suspected 1t.

Valley. Every morning. just after sunrise, his
great wings went winnowing nightly just over
the crest of the ridge, just the lofty hollow
where Red Fox had his lair. And as the dread
shadow, with its sinister rusting of stiff pinions
passed by the little foxes would shrink back into
their den, we'll taught by their father and mother
When the weather fine and dry, it Red
FoX's custom to betake himself his return from
the nights hunting, to his safe lookout the rocky
summit above the den and there resting with his
nose on his fOrepaWs, to watch the and
dawn roll up upon the world. Sometimes he
brought his prey, when 1t something worth
while like weasel or woodchuck or duck rabbit
up to this lonely place to be devoured at leisure,
beyond the soicitude Of his mate and the irrepres-
sible whimperings of the puppies. He would lie
there in the mystic spreading of the gray trans
parences of dawn, till the first long fingers of gold
light touched his face and the thin flood of amber
and rose washed all over the bald top of the rock
He would watch with ceaseless interest the
mother eagle swoop down with narrowed wings into
the misty shadows OF the valley, then mount slowly,
1uesting. along the slopes of Ringwaak and finally
soar high above the peak a slowly gyrating speck
against the young blue He would watch the male
spring into the air resolutely, beat up the
steep wing low his rock and sail majesticallv
down the valley farms Later he would see
them return the nest, from any point of the
pass might chance, sometimes with big lake
trout snatChed from the industrious tsh-haWks,
sometimes with a luckless 1nallard from the reed
beds southwark, sometimes with a long-legged,
pathetic white lamb from the rough upland pas
lures With keenest interest and no small appre-
citation he would watch the great birds balance
themselves, wings half upifted. the edge of the
the nest and with terrible beak and claws rend the
victim to bloody fragments He marveled at the
Unsuitable appetites of those two ugly nestlings
and congratulated himself that his four playful
whelps. were more comely and less greedy.
One morning when in the gray of earliest dawn
he climbed to his retreat with plump woodchuck
in his jaws, it CHANGED he was in no hurry for his
meal. Dropping the limp body till he should feel
more relish for it. he lay down to rest and contem-
