Mines of the County

Mines Ot the County R. H. Cameron and w. s. Wilson came down from Truxton last Tues day evening and departed the follow ing day to the mines. Mir. Wilson is general manager of the company op- erating the Brown-Tomlinson mines, eight miles east of Blackberry and came here to get acquainted and con tract for supplies for his camp. At the present time he is working thirty men in the mines and building roads to the camp. P. McCardell, the King man civil engineer, is laying out the road from the mines to the plain be- low, and also laying out townsite at the mines. All the properties will be surveyed and soon patents will be ap- piled for. The company has good sized treasury and mean business. Mir. Cameron promoted the deal on the properties. The mines carry good values in gold and copper and the veins are said to be quite large.
 Report from Stockton Hill is to the effect that the ore being taken from the Little Chief mine by Thomas Me- Mahon will run 45$ per sack. The ore is sulphide of silver and is very pure McMahon and partner have ship ment of the ore about ready and will soon send it to the shelter. Owing to this rich strike on one of the old mines many leases are being taken on other mines that at one time or anoth- CT produced rich ore and it will be but a short time until tributers will be making regular shipments as in the palmy days of the old camp.
 A prospector by the name of Bruell has number of men at work on group of claims north of the old Cop per Camp. A number of ten foot holes are being sunk and it is said there is good showing of copper and gold ore in the openings. The owner proposes to begin active development work on the mines after the first of January, having interested German capital in the enterprise.

 Judge M. Redman has gone to his mines in the Secret Pass country, where he will remain several months. It is his intention to drive tunnel into the mountain to tap the veins at depth. The outcrop of the veins show big bodies of high grade milling ore and should this showing Obtaln at depth the property will be one of the best in that section.
 James Lucas, mining man from Cerrillas, New Mexico, was in King man last Thursday. He continued on his way to California Thursday even- ing, where he will make an examina- tion of mining property. MT. Lucas is quite well known to many of the people of Kingman, having examined mines in this section few years ago.

 It is reported that body of rich silver-lead ore has been found in the Cupel mine, at Stockton Hill. Water is being pumped from the mine for the use of the new mill and it is thought that the ore was found in one of the old stopes that may have caved.
 w. H. Smith, wife and two daugh- ters, of Searchlight, arrived in King man Monday last and have gone to Yucca, near which place Mr. Smith is interested in mining property. The family will remain at the mines some time.
