BONANZA CIRCLE GIVEN
 GOOD SEND- -0FF
Duluth Herald.)

A. D. Ondpln ana James l. 1dlS have returned from Bisbee, Arizona, where they spent a week or more. During that time they visited pracu- cally all of the Bonanza Circle mines, going underground and inspecting the workings. This was not lheir first visit. in fact both men have always been pretty closely in touch with what has been done in the mines. They unite in saying that the last half dozen weeks or so has seen more accom- plished in the way of opening up gre than the previous year or even Iw0 years. In their opinion Mir. Powell is the man for the place and has already given new life and action to the prop critics. The next six months should see the opening up of a great amount of ore, for no one doubts the presence of the ore in great quantities. The feeling is stronger than ever at Bis bee that every one of the properties is to be a great mine.
 According to Mir. Chapin the strike uf ore made in the Lake Superior X Pittsburg in February was a very fine one, running very rich and being of high grade. The mine officials are thoroughly convinced that the body Of ore on this property is of even greater extent than has been generally sup posed. MT. Powell expects to make Lake Superior & Pittsburg a dividend payer within a few months.
 The Calumet & Arizona will prob ably quit using the Irish Mag shaf. before very long. It is beginning to -t, ,;. rF sg,Nsr hi n not at all unusual. for the Copper Queen has that experience with some of its shafts. The Oliver shaft is of size and equipment sufficient to han dle all that property can raise, how ever, and the dropping out of the Mag will make no difference. The re serves of the Calumet & Arizona are being steadily extended, and it has now years and years of mining still ahead of it.
 The Pittsburg & Duluth property, too, says MT. Chapin, is showing up fine ores, and it is the impression that they will run much finer as the min CTS work up higher. As they go up ward they are getting the oxide ores that are running richer. The finds lately have been in this class of ore.
 The Junction could now be raising ore. and is the favorite property with many Bisbee people. It has 100 feet of ore of fine quality shown up, and every prospect that the ore is only beginning to be shown up as yet.
 Calumet & Pittsburg, according to both Mir. Hale and Mir. Chapin, has shown less than any of the others, but they say that no one seems to have lost a particle of faith in that property and many of the Bisbee peo- ole and mine officials think it will be as great a proposition as any. The talk of water in the Hoatson shaft was exaggerated. It has not stopped work at any time. A small pump was installed, a tank built and the water pumped into the tank. Between shifts the water Is taken to the sur face and the mine bailed out in that way. It is easily done and without trouble.
 A new 1000-gallon pump has been ordered for Calumet & Pittsburg's Briggs shaft and will be installed at the bottom. When that is in another 1OO0-gallon pump will be moved to the bottom and this will enable the pump ing to be done to better advantage Junction is also to have another lOOO gallon pump.
 The opinion of the mining engin- eers now is that they are not down quite far enough to reach the ore On the Calumet & Pittsburg property. The shafts will be sunk to great depth and the ore reached as quickly as possible.
 A fifth furnace has been added 70 the Calumet & Arizona smelter and will soon be ready for use. Four Will then he operated, where only three are now, one always being held in reserve. Some have gained the idea that one cf the furnaces is used for Lake Superior & Pittsburg and Pittsburg & Duluth ores. but this is not correct. The Calumet & Arizona acts as the GUS
 toms company buying the ores ot the ether companies and combining them to make the best Aux possible, mixing them with its own ores.
