BONANZA STRUCK ON CHLORIDE
 GROUP.

CHLORIDE, Ariz., Oct. 16.-Thc Arizona Birmingham Gold Mining com pany, of Birmingham, Ala, secured n lease, little over year ago, on n group of claims belonging to the Chlor ide Gold Mining company Chloride, gently engaged in driving Il cross cut tunnel into Srhrum 's Mountain, with the expectation of opening the Lucky Boy vein at considerable depth.
 The Lucky Boy Is an extension of an adjoining property and is known Co tc very rich. The tunnel is now over l.OjO feet in length. 700 feet of which has been driven by the leasing com. pany, which has about Go feet farther To go before reaching the Lucky Boy vein. Several veins have been cut h." this tunnel. all of which contained pay ore.
 Some days ago n ledge of soft DOT. phyry was cut which showed consider. able naturalization. No attention was paid to this, as they knew the vein they were desirous of cutting was far thcr ahead. until few days later some of the soft material, having been cx- posed to the air, crumbled off, expos. ing mineral that rcsembled ore, sam. ples of which assaycd Si60 ton, it is learned, or si3,s0O n car of 30 tons.
 No drifting has been done on the new discovery, but it has every ap. pcaranee of opening up large body of rich orc that will make the stockhold. CTS of the leasing company wealthy, it is thought.
 This ore was cut at perpendicular depth of $50 feet. The tunnel will be continued until it reaches its objec. tive. The leasing company has a long lease and is we'll equipped for develop ment of the group of claims it holds.
 The Chloride Gold Mining company shipped l50 tons of ore from its work. ings last month.

THE NEW HARVEY HOUSE AT
 NEEDLES, CALF.
(From Wednesdays Daily.r


 Work on the new hotel and depot building being erected ot Ash Fork, by the santa Fe company, is progress ing satisfactorily, and when completed will be among the show places on the western system. lt has already ad vanced far enough to give one an idea as to it's architectural beauty.
 There is much conjecture, however, concerning the new Harvey house de- pot and hotel building to be erected at Needles, Calf. as to it's exact lo. cation in that city. and it's style of architecture.
 There now seems great probabil. ity that the new building will occupy the site of the two Front street parks, extending from short distance of the general office building to the east end of the parks, directly in front of the stores of Monaghan & Murphy, of that city.
 The plans as suggested by the first architects are unique and will provide for the location of n building which Needles may well look upon with pride and commcndation. Nearly 600 feet in length. surrounded with porchcs 20 feet in width, on both the first and second floors, this building, construct cd of reinforced cement will add greatly to the presence of that city, to the travelling public of the santa f'c.
 While the demands for 'the building arc great and its immediate construe- tion is desired, it is probable that he. cause of the great amount of consid. eration which it will receive by the various officials and the departments of the railroad and the Harvey house system, that it will be some months before the actual construction work will begin, although 1t is hoped that tho plans may be adopted and work commenced soon. The designs of the building are such in size. structure and architecture as to answer the de. mands of such a building for all time, taking into consideration the gradu. ally increasing traffic of the railroad and the growing importance of Needles as station and division point.

MAKE GOOD STRIKE IN ABAND.
 OWED MINE.
(From Thursdays Daily.)

In an old abandoned mine, located about three miles southwest of the town of Kirkland, on the s. F. r. & F., and from which large amount of valuable ore was mined and shipped by Doe Jones, as far back as 1872, J. W. Jack. son and Ed Morehead recently uneov. cred, in a shaft about 30 feet in depth. n twofoot paystreak of heavy sand car bonatcs of lead, carrying fair gold and silver values.
 Lester Jackson, who returned yestcr day from the new strike, gives as his opinion that the property will prove among the most valuable in the district. with n reasonable amount of develop ment. The vein follows a schistose and lime contact lying at an angle of about 22 degrees, the new paystrcak being encountered in n new shaft being sunk near the old workings, which cavcd in many years ago. The ledge can be traced for distarce of two claims along the surface, and is promising surface showing
 Jackson and Morehead the owners of the ground, are making preparations to sink n shaft on it to considerable depth, and open the vein by series of latcrals, to determine the extent oi the deposit.
 The camp is an ideal one for mining operations, a good road leading to Kirk land. the nearest railroad station, while Kirkland Creek, with a never failing water supply, is only about one mile south of the property.
 The owners of this promising prop. crty have already located group of four claims, along tho surface of the ledge, upon which they have already completed the title work, and are now engaged in the preliminary work of sinking the new shaft at the scene of their promising discovery.

MUCH ACTIVITY IN NEW A. & C..
 COUNTRY.
(From Thursday's Daily.)

"ln an experience of many years at the mining business, during which time l have visited number of the great mining districts of the west, I never SEW such activity displayed in new mining country, or SO much demand for promising prospects as there k at pres ent in the new copper country along the line of the A. S c. railroad, now being pushed from Wickcnburg to the Colo. rado river,' said Frank Burns, yester. day, to Journal Miner man, on his retnrn here from that section.
 "When l arrived at wenden,' he said, 'I met five mining experts, each of whom represented syndicates having over $I,000,000 in capital at their com. mand, in search of properties or re. turning from making expert examina- tions of meritOrious prospects. The pres. ence of these men at that place at one time was no accident Others on sim liar business arrive almost daily, and the outlook is that within the next few months number of camps will be started as result of these investiea. tions.
 Only few days ago John $. Hagler purchased n group of three claims which have an excellent surface show. ing. This property is located in the Cunningham Pass country, which has already attracted much attention by the richness of its ores. From an open cut on one of the claims of this group. which measures only 20 feet in length and l2 feet in depth at the face, six tons of ore were recently shipped which gave returns of over 45 per cent in copper, besides small values in gold and silver Extensive operations will be inaugurated on this mine on the re. turn of MT.
