Although the strike was made a month or more ago nothing was thought of it until the discoverer came to Kingman and had a number of assays of the ore made. The find was made by Joe Brittan
 who had been grubstaked by Mrs. Mary Sweeney. Assays from the find ran from one ounce to eighteen ounces gold to the ton The vein is situated in the north end of the Black mountains about fifteen miles south of Franconla and almost the same distance from Haviland The ore was capped with andesite and the good ore was not found until this cap was cut through. The vein is pOrphyritic and the gold s free.

 In connection with the Kyrene beets. it might be stated that H. c. Yeager of Phoenix, another south side beet en- thusiast was a visitor here yesterday. MT. Yeager has a splendid field of beets but a few miles from Kyrenc, and not long ago promised the writer that some day he would bring some beets to town that would break all standing records for size. Asked about them yesterday. he replied that Chas. Holts had started to town with some a few days ago. He was taking the family horse to Phoenix at the time, and thoughtlessly tied the animal be- hind the rig where it could reach the beets When he reached Tempe the beets were missing-they had been consumed by the horse. tops and all. en route.
