Work in the north drift of the Denn- Arizona last week furnished the War .ren district with its most interesting topic. The strike of lowgrade sul- phide ore, averaging from to per cent, sent the stock soaring, and 1t was eagerly sought by the public. The ore was encountered st about S5 feet from the shaft and every shot Is 0x- pected to uncover a rich body of the ore. As it is, the entire face is 'till in ore. That the Denn-Arizona should soon open up a paying body Is con ceded by nearly all those conversant with the mining situation in the dis trict-
 The new pumping plant at Ihis property. recently installed under the supervision of Superintendent Patti. son, is all ready for operation, but as yet no water has been encountered.
 The southeast drift, which was started in the direction of the ,dia- mond drill hole. is now In 200 feet. With $50 feet more to go before the drill hole is encountered. 1t Is not en- tirely out of the quesdon that ore will be encountered sooner. They are still in the conglomerate in the south east drift. .....

 At the CochiSe, where the eucoun tering of small pockets of ore created a furry in local circles last week, the shaft and drift are both undergoing a decided change in formation. They have passed through the hard quarcZ and porphyry into ledge matter, wien is well mineraiiZed and shows con siderable amount of lo~grade suL phide ore. There is every indication that Cochise will sooner encounter a permanent ore body of high Talue.
 The Cochise shaft is already down 490 feet, and it is expected that an other station will be cut at either the GOO or TOO level.
 The recent strikes, both in the Denn and Cochise, coupled with the prox- unity Of the latter to the Copper Queen ground, have drawn much at tention toward the north side of the canyon, Cochise stockholders taking profit on their holdings as a result.
