FIVE POINTS COMPANY.
Makes Shipment of Ten Tons to Old
 Dominion Shelter.

Milo W. Porter, Bisbee agent for the Five Points Mining Company, operat- ing in the Globe District, yesterday re- ceived a letter from Globe, written by A. T. Hammons, treasurer of the company, in which he states that ship ment of ten tons of ore was made this week. The control assay sheet, in- closed in the letter, shows a trace of gold, forty-nine ounces in silver, and thirty-eight per cent copper.
 MT. Hammons states the company has several miners at work taking out lore, and will continue shipping to the smelter as fast as teams can be secur- ed to do the hauling, and aside from the shipping ore, the company has thousands of tons Of low grade ore that will run from to 12 per cent copper. Continuing, MT. Hammons says:
 We have the best proposition in the whole district, and we know it, and as fast as time will permit, we are going to show up our property, and the people in the near future. will be falling over themselves to buy stock, but not at the S1.00 rate.I There is not day passes in Globe but what men voluntarily come to me and buy shares in the company. We do not have to solicit anyone in Globe-they all know what we have"

GREAT MINING COUNTRY.

JJames Finch left Bisbee Sun. day morning en route to the City of Mexico, where he goes on mining business, and while there he will endeavor to secure permit from the Mexican government which will permit him to denounce property in Sonora.
 MT. Finch had just returned from a trip through Sonora. He started from Douglas and went south to the Ala mos country, which will be on the main line of the new Southern Pa cific route, now building from Guay- mas to Guadalajara. MT. Finch de- clares that the mines in the AIamos district are fabuiously rich, and he has secured an option on a property there. Returning, Mir. Finch came out via Hermosillo, and had a very hard trip, owing to the heavy rains and consequent high water in the Yaqui river. He declares that the Yaqui river rose sixty feet at a point where 1t was three-Quarters of a mile wide.
 Mir. Finch Is the owner of the veta Grande mines in the Bocoachi sec ton of the Arizpe district. This prop erty was bonded last year to the Un- ited States Steel Company. which re- gently stopped work and turned it back to MT. Finch He stated that he had not been at the Veta Grande for some time, but that he expected to carry on developuent work there and is confident that the mine will make a most excellent one. MT. Finch re- ceived substantial cash payment when he executed the bond, besides he gets the benefit of all the devel- opment work done by the steel com pany. along with ail the ore taken out and the machinery installed during he life of the bond. which amounts b more than S4ooe.

MERRIL RELOCAyEs
 THE BULL DOG MINE
VALUABLE PROPERTY IN FINAL COUNTY WILL AGAIN BE
 WORKED.
First Owners Left for Parts Unknown One Dark Stormy Nisht--Nesleet- ing to Meet the Pay Roll and Carry. ing the Bullion With Them.

| Judge Jamison is now in Florence,
 to quiet title to the BullDog mine, and behind this little information there
 lies piece of news of interest to min.
 ing men, says the Phoenix Gazette. This mine was located about seven years ago, by Orris D. Merrill, of
 Mesa, a man who had great deal of experience in mining, and who had re
 gently discovered also the Mammoth
 mine, nearby, now owned and operat. ed by Chas. Hall.
 In the early stages of its develop
 ment the Mammoth proved a bonanza and the price asked by Merrill and his associates was readily paid. Convinc- ed of the existence of other ore bod
 ies in the locality, Merrill then made systematic search for another mine, and his conclusions were proven to be well founded when he found the Bull-Dog ledge. This was bonded to the Ellis brothers, of Phoenix, who in those days ran a store in this city Work was pushed on the property, and a five-stamp mill was soon in opera ton, saving gold values to an extent | that will never be accurately known. but which is assumed to have been great. 70.
 The payments were never made on the mill. the labor account was default ed for the last month or two of the
 run, and no payment was ever made down on the option. One dark, stormy night, the Ellis brothers left for parts unknown, with bullion represent ing enough to have paid off all liabili- ties, it is claimed, and left the mine in bad shape for continued operations. By some peculiar interpretation of the law, the property was held liable for the debts of the lessees, and being sold at auction, Merrill and his friends lost it, and it passed into the hands of prominent gentleman in Mesa, who has since held it for sale, but has not attempted to make it a steady pro- ducer.
 MT. Merrill claims that the annual assessment work has not been in ac- cordance with law, and that as it was open to relocation, he, as the greatest loser in the past transactions, had the greatest interest in retaining the prop |erty. It is probable that the title will soon be cleared up, and that another producer will be added to the list of mines in Arizona. The property lies just over the line separating Maricopa from Pinal counties. but this county will derive all benefit from it's opera tion. This will be another feature in Mesas Inevitable progress,

CapA James Cheynoweth and party fpcJdding Mrs. Cheynoweth and niece And two sons, arrived in Bisbee yester day from Los Angeles and spent the day in looking over the camp in the vicinity of the Bonanza Circle. The Captain did not go underground, but expects to return to Bisbee again in the near future for the purpose of making a closer inspection of the workings in this camp which has come to be known in the Michigan country with as much interest almost as the Michigan mines.
 The party stopped in Bisbee yester. day for a sightseeing trip, and will leave this evening for Benson, where they will take the Golden State Linn ited on their return trip to the north.
 At the Copper Queen Hotel last ev' ening Capt. Cheynoweth stated that Risbee was truly wonderful camp. and judging from appearances was ev- idently only entering upon the eve of its prosperity.
 Capt. Cheynoweth is one of the prominent mining men of the Michi. gan copper mines, and is at present superintendent of what is known as the Fay group of mines in Houghton county, among which is the Centen. nial, which adjoins the famous Calu- met & Hecla. Mir. Cheynoweth has been with this company for the past ten years, and prior to that time was superintendent of the Tri-Mountain, which afterwards passed under the control of the Copper Range Consoli, dated Mines company.
 Speaking of the Michigan copper mines, the Captain stated that the Nc. shaft of the Tamarack in his district had a vertical depth of 5200 feet, which is almost five times the depth of any shaft in the Warren District. In this shaft a distance of 4900 feet was sunk before the lode was encoun- tered. Arizona is attracting the at- tention of the world" said the Captain. ''as a copper producer, and ir would not surprise me to see this territory wrest second place from Michigan in the list of producers during the pres ent year. I only dropped in to take look at the scene of the mines, but expect to return to Bisbee for a closer investigation in the near future"

 INSTALLING CONCENTRATOR
WILL BE OF VAST BENEFIT TO
 PARADISE DISTRICT.

Plant ls Of Modern Type With a Ca pacity of 100 Tons Per Day-All Machinery Has Arrived With Ex-
 eeption of One Carload.
 (The Paradise Record.) Calculated to be of vast benefit
 to Paradise and vicinity is the concen-
 trator now being installed at the prop
 erty of this company. The whole plant is of the most modern type. Its
 capacity is 100 tons per day. The
 mill is 45 feet in height. The width | is 62 feet and the length from one end
 of the building to the end of the tail. ling is 100 feet. The plant consists
 of two gasoline engines of the Weber
 make, one of HIP and the other, of l150 HIP. Also one 100 HIP generator ] air compressor is used as g booster for | the gas engine. There is one ore i crusher, three sets of crushing rolls,
 three elevators, two jigs, two tables and settling tanks.
 The mill will be driven from coun- ter shafting direct from the gas en- zine, gasoline and air compression { being the powers used within the mill. | The outside workings, the pumps, the hoists, etc, will all be set in motion ! by electricity, the company installing ! its own plant for this purpose. Electric 1 light will be furnished throughout the entire camp.
 On the hillside, at a higher eleva- ton, only short distonce to the south of the mills are five water tanks of 5000 gallons capacity, each. In the two wells a sufficient amount of water is assured to meet all the requirements of the mill and camp, the mill calling for 2500 gallons of water per day. It will thus be readily seen that when once the tanks are full, there will be
 sufficient amount of water in them to meet the needs of the entire camp for more than one week. should any acci- dent befall the pumps. In case of fire, the water pressure, will it is es- timated, be great enough to force
 stream to the top of the mill. The new equipment also includes a com plete fire apparatus, as a precaution against fire that might, if started, do thousands of dollars damage to the new plant.
 With the exception of one car load, all of the machinery is now at hand and practically everything is in po- sition. Within six weeks the mill

 The city council might do a worse thing before it's term expires in April than to pass an ordinance to keep bicycles from being ridden on the sidewalks of Douglas. The bicycle habit is one of the worst nuisances with which the peaceable citizens have to contend. and it would be a popular act If the council should see fit to enact the sentiments of the large majority into law.
