We struck into broader street.
whereof one side was wholly lind with
warehouses. And here. to our dismay,
we heard shouts behind and the noise of
feet running.
About half way down the street | spied
a gateway standing ajar and pul'd De-
lin aside into a courtyard litter'd with
barrels AMI tiInbers. and across it 10 a
black empty barn OF place where a
fight of wooden steps glimmer'd, that led
to an upper story. We climb'd these

The loft was piled high with great
bales of wool. as / found by the touch,

two ends of a rope, working over pull
ley above my head and used for lowering
the bales of wool on shipboard.
Advancing. | stood on the sill and look
ed down. On the black water, twenty
feet below, lay a three-masted trader,
close against the we rehouse. My toes
stuck out over her deck almost.
At first glance / could see no sign of
life OH board but presently was aware
of a dark figure leaning over the bull
warks He was quite motionless. His
back was toward us, blotted against the
black shadow, and the man engaged only,
it seemed, in watching the bright splash
of light flung by the ships lantern on the
water beneath him.
l resolved to throw myself on the mer-
cy of this silent figure, and put out
hand to test the rope. One end of it was
fixed to a bale of wool that lay, as it
had been lowered, on the deck. Flinging
mr. self on the other, / found it sink gent
ly from the pulley, as the weight below
moved slowly upward, and sinking with
it, / held on till my feet touched the
deck. Still the figure in the bows was
motionless.
l paid out my end of the rope softly,
lowering back the bale of wool, and as
soon as it rested again on deck signaled
to Della to let herself down. She did
so. As she alighted and stood beside me
our hands bungled. The rope slipped up
quickly, letting down the bale with
run.
We caught at the rope and stopped it
just in time, but the pulley above creak-
ed vociferously. L turned my head. The
man in the bows had not moved.

Salt Springs Mines.

E. B. Pine came in from Salt Springs Thursday evening last, having com. pleted assessment work on the Salt Springs group of mines, owned by Hon. J. F. Luthy of Albuquerque. He re
 ports the properties looking very we'll and exhibited specimens of ore from some mines in the group that show considerable free gold. There are four mines in the group, the Golconda, Golden Harvest, Pawn and Salt Springs. The Golconda and Golden Harvest are % the same lode, and on the Golconda the greatest amount of work has been done, consisting of six ty and loo foot shafts. In these shafts the ore shows great regularity from top to bottom. In the deepest shaft ore worked in an arastra gave result of 9OS to the ton in gold. A drift is being run in to cut the vein at considerable depth below the shaft and this drift is now showing indications of being close to the vein. The outcrop shows the same character of vein and practically the same grade of ore between the deep shaft on the Golconda aud the 68 foot shaft on the Golden Harvest, distance of 1000 feet. Some distance from this lode is the Pawn, which has been opened by crosscut and drift showing vein width of four feet of fine milling ore. The Salt Springs claim covers water rights and on which work is opening up stratas of copper ore. Some of the specimens of copper brought to Kingman show consider able sulphide and carbonate. It is es. timated that the spring will furnish enough water for twenty stamp mill.
 The group of mines are situated close to the river, in the Gold Basin district, and are easily accessible by wagon. With the amount of develop. ment work done there are few better showings of mineral in the county.
