Progress of Developing Operations
 Around Jerome.

The discovery of a large body of rich sulphide ore in the Copper Chief con tlnues to attract a great deal of atten- ton in local mining circles says the Jerome News. From the workings on the Equator property, which are locat- ed on the claim lying along the east line of the Copper Chief a great deal or ore has been taken and reduced at smelter on the ground. but q scarcity Of sulphides which are necessary in the reduction of the other ores. compelled me shutting down of the smelter until sulphides could be developed

ing an ore body that apexes on the 4OO-foot level and which was uncover ed in the bottom of that level at about the same distance from the shaft as it Black Hawk ore body is undoubtedly the largest ever opened in Globe dis trict.
 C. Jerome Clark who came in from the Globe Western Copper company's properties reports a strike of black sulphide ore, assaying about % per cent copper on the Westbrook and Robertson mine belonging to the com pany. The ore which is two feet wide was struck in a tunnel located about 800 yards south of the Gibson shaft MT Clark also states that fine ore has been encountered in a crosscut from the new tunnel on the Cole & Goodwin property of the Globe Western com pany, and that in the west drift of the 300 foot level of the old mine big ore IS being opened. The Globe Western has some of the most promising mines Tn the upper Mineral Creek district. - - The Apache Consolidated Mining company, whose property is situated about nine miles northeast of Globe near Richmond Basin, have reached n depth of so feet in their prospect sbaft which they will enlarge to three com partments and continue sinking. Al thlrty-five feet in depth a crosscut was run no feet and went through thirty i've feet of ledge matter carving car bonates of copper. The company has tine showing on it's property for the work done and expects to open up the property systematically.

THE sHATTUck ARIZONA.
Fine Body of Ore Encountered On the
 500 Level.

On Tuesday afternoon, while the force of the Shattuck-Arizona in Ris- pee was engaged in cutting the station on the 6OO-foot level, and at a distance or little more than two feet from the shatt, one of the finest ore bodies was encountered, and Wednesday the breast or the work was still in ore, oxides and carbonates of high grade, all of which goes to show how close a shaft can come to a gOod-sized- ore body without disclosing it.
 ore has now been found on three levels at the Shattuck. the 800. 500 and 700 Most of the development work has been done on the TOO The pumps are working night and day at the Shattuck this week, lowering the water in the shaft, and it is the ex- pectation that the 800 level will be reached tomorrow, when drifting will be resumed on that level
 Regular shipments to the Conner Queen smelter at Douglas over the tramway will be commenced in August. and Shattuck & Arizona will become a steady producer within two years after the first development work was begun.
 Shattuck will make a great record next year and the development work to date has proven that the Shattuck- Arizona must be reckoned as one of the biggest producers of the future

A. J. Rubert. one of the old time min- CTS of the Hassayampa and Skull val ley districts, is in town from his min ing camp on the Senator range about s miles south of this city says the Prescott Journal Miner
 He exhibited a large specimen of copper and gold ore of a high grade re- gently taken from a vein. upon the de- Velopment of which he is engaged.
 He Is the owner of a group of four claims on the south side of the Hassa- yampa river. about one mile above the mouth of Groom creek. The locations cover large porphyry and iron dyke, which can be traced across the range running in southeasterly and north westerly direction, which is followed by a ledge carrying good values in gold, silver and copper.

PRICES OF PRODUCES
 OF FIELD AND GARDEN
The First Honey of the Season
 Brought in Yesterday.

The first honey of the season was brought to the city yesterday having been gathered on the Wilcox ranch at Buckeye. None of it was sold to local dealers, the entire amount which con- sisted of about sixty cases being plac- ed in storage to be sold later with the balance of the product of the members of the Maricopa Bee Keepers associa- tion. The crop this year it is esti- mated, will be double that of a year ago, in all about twelve cars being the estimate of shipments. Most of it will be alfalfa honey, very small amount being white mesquite. That the crop each year is increasing is very en- couraging to those who are interested in the industry. There was a season back in 1898 when thirty-seven cars of honey were shipped from this valley. Gradually the shipments fell until the minimum was reached three years ago when but four cars were shipped. A year ago the shipments amounted to six cars

rOxrO DAn EVENTS
A Badly Hurt ItalisA--Covernms
 Loss of Hay by Fire.

Roosevelt, Ariz.. June 20.-(SpeciaI Correspondence of The RepubHcan)- One of the Italians in the employ of O'Rourke and company. the eontrac- tors. met with a somewhat painful and serious accident on last Friday morn ing. While working at the bottom of a high cliff, a stone was shaken loose from above and fell. striking the ItaI- ian on the head and knocking him insensible. The blow was of such a nature that the mans scalp was torn fuseness of the bleeding it was feared that he had been killed. He was hurriedly removed to the hospital where his injuries were attended by Dr. Palmer, and the man was made as comfortable as possible. When seen later, the doctor said that the mans injuries were of less serious nature than had at first been believed. The scalp was cut by the fall of the rock. but had struck in such way that the skull had not been fractured. With proper care and attention the man will be up and about in a few days.
 Fire, of an unknown origin, was the cause of the loss of about fifty or sixty tons oS bailed hay on the govern ment farm at Grapevine on Thursday of last week. For some weeks past the employees on the farm under the direction of Superintendent Bennett. have been engaged in the harvesting and bailing of several hundred acres

But little is heard lately from the desert section through which the Ari- zona & California railroad passes, ow- ing to the fact that the weather is not conducive to unnecessary travel across country. But all travellers who do come in from those parts report no cessation of mining activity and on the contrary those who have claims located are de- Veloping them as fast as they can. Not only north and south of Wenden but all inc way to the Colorado river. wherever there are mines adjacent 10 water or water has been developed. the work of exploration is being carried along quietly but energetcally.

THE SHANNON PROPERTY.
Seorehed Few Days Ago by a
 Threatening Fire.

The shannon incline at the mines in Metcalf was greatly damaged by fire on Wednesday last and at one time threatened to destroy the whole struc- ture says the Morencf Leader. The manner in which the fire started is not definitely known, but is believed to have been caused by a careless work man dropping an ignited cigarette or cigar.
 The weather has been so dry and SuItry that the timbers of the struc- lure were like so much finder, and the hre had made sufficient headway be- Tore 1t was discovered, to burn the hosting apparatus at the top of the incline, and owing to the inaccessi bllity of the structure had made good headway before it was gotten under control The incline was so badly damaged that little or no ore can be handled before the first of the week and with the exception of a small quantity in the bins, no ore is avail able to keep the furnaces in operation. The repairs are expected to be com pIeted by the first of the week. Gen. Manager Bennie went to Fl Paso Thursday to order the material lack ing.

STUDYING LOCO WEED.
pr. c. Dwight Marsh Now in Yavapai
 County.


 pr. c. Dwight Marsh, who is at tached to the bureau of plant industry of the agricultural department. and in charge of the station in Colorado. where an exhaustive investigation of the poisonous effects of the loco weed is being conducted, returned to Pres colt late on Thursday night from Big Chino valley, where he secured a mum Der of samples of the loco weed. and returned yesterday to further continue his investigations.
 Speaking to a Journal-Miner man of conditions here as he found them. he said: Tn the places visited 1 found three different kinds of loco weed. ap- parently altogether different from the Colorado weed, but of the same species Whole sections were found to be act ually covered by it, growing almost as thick as alfalfa. It is a serious propo- sition and the stockmen of this section should take some action at once with view of impressing the government authorities with the gravity of the situation.
 From what I learned from the stockmen with whom I -conversed it appears to me that the loco found here is much more deadly in it's effects than the Colorado weed. In their researches the government experts have almost always disregarded the statements made by stockmen and others concern ing the effects of the weed on stock, and teh peculiarities of it's effects on different animals, but I desire to say, in general way, that the determina- tion of the experts have almost always agreed with the statements made by the observant and intelligent stock men.
 T am not ready to make any state ment further than from what I have already learned that the situation is, to say the least, a serious one and de- serves the best consideration of the stockmen who are mostly interested as well as the department authorities.
 My time here is limited. I will stop on my return at Flagstaff, from where t4ere is also much complaint. It is inn perative that l should return to Colo rado at once, as a new station is being started in Nebraska under my charge
 ''The Nebraska stockmen," he fur ther said, presented the department with the land upon which to start the station, as well as the stock to make the tests. They also agreed to furnish doctor to look after the station, with the understanding that the department should take full | charge and conduct the experiments
 From the statements made by the | stockmen here l believe that the species ! of loco found here is more deadly in | it's effects than any upon which have | yet made experiments"

As development of the property of this company progresses it is found that the ore bodies are so immense that it will take a much larger milling plant than the one in use now to handle the ore and consequently, it will be en- larged.-FIorence Blade
