Richard Stevens and family, who
spent the last three months visiting
relatives In England and Germany,
returned this week greatly improved
in health. Richard has many inter-

of shifts unloading German 'steins"
in the old country. He put on about
twenty pounds and is glad to get
back home to business again.

Chas. Bergy, a rough rider from
California, last week lost his laurels
as an expert rider. He was so thor
oughly outclassed by one of Clifton S
young ladies that it is likely that h.
will never try it again. While out
riding he lost track of the stirrups
and fell off, allowing the horse to get
away. Rather than quit on such
short notice he secured another horse
and this time was thrown off into
the river, after which he gave it up,
and has since been attending strictly
to business.

In this issue of the ERA will be
found the announcement of Judge
Theo. Shirley for the Office of Pro-
bate Judge, subject to the endorse
ment of the democratic county con-
vention. Judge Shirley is an old
time democratic warhorse of Graham
county and is man of merit, and
will make an agreeable and able
officer if he is nominated and elected
to the Office to which he aspires. He
has long resided at Metcalf, at which
place he has served as justice of the
peace. He will not be able to cover
much of the county on account of
being on crutches, but his friends
are already introducing him as the
next probate judge of Graham
county.

Shipments were commenced last
week from the Ash Peak mines to
the Shannon smelter. 1t is expected
that between four and five hundred
tons monthly will be shipped to the
Shannon. The value of the ore is in
the silver it contains, though it's
principal value to the smelter is for
the silica it carries, being crushed
and used for converter lining. The
company is now in a position to pro-
duce much larger tonnage than
that taken by the Shannon, hence it
is likely that shipment will be made
to Douglas, where silica is also in de-
mand, being shipped in from Globe.
The Ash Peak company is now in d
position to develop its property from
the income derived from ore ship
ments. 1t is also likely that the
company will soon commence the
erection of cyanide plant, whereby
it will be able to treat all of its low
grade ores without the expense of
shipping. The company has been
operating several years and has
well developed property, and is push
ing exploration work as fast as
possible. In addition to its low
grade ores it also has a mine which
is producing ore that will average
from $40 to S4OO per ton in silver.

E. U. Beauchamp and E. H. Waldo
were in town this week from the
Gold Belt Development Company's
property on Bonanza gulch near
Morenci, and from all reports their
property is making most remark
able showing as development work
progresses. In grading for a wagon
road they recently cut a streak sew
eral feet wide of free-milling gold
ore which goes from $40 to 800 per
ton. On this same lead at some
distance to the east they have a
shaft down forty feet and the ore
in the bottom of it averges two
ounces gold. But the strike which
attracts the greatest attention of
mining men is a large body of man.
ganese-copper ore which is now
being exploited, and which seems
to give a general average of about
30 per cent. Several tons of this
ore is now being taken out daily in
development work, but as yet the
extent of the ore body is not known,
though there seems to be no doubt
of its permanency. The existence
of this body of ore has long been
known to prospeCtors, who however,
were under the impression that the
manganese did not carry copper in
paying quantities, and as they did
not go to the trouble to have ASA VS.
made, they missed an opportunity
to locate copper mine which will
pay from the grass roots. Ii is the
intention of the management as soon
as the road can be put in shape, to
commence shipping this ore to the
Shannon smelter. The company's new
hosting plant is now in commission
and the work of sinking the main
shaft is progressing.

MINES AND MINING.
MAYFLowER DISTRICT.

The ERA is informed that a bond
has been taken on the Upton & Phil
lips properties and the Frank Morris
properties in the Mayhower district
for sixty days, after having been
carefully examined by Wider Wider
ton, well known expert of Silver
City. The bond calls for cash at the
expiration of the time specified. If
this deal goes through, and it seems
most probable that it will, the May
flower district will at once be put in
a position to attract other capital,
as Mr.. Viderton is backed by ample
means, and has been largely re-
sponsible for the revival of mining
in the Burro mountains of Grant
county. There is no more promising
district anywhere than the May
flower, aud the wonder is that it has
so long been neglected by mining
men.

Three shifts are now employed on

driven 400 feet, and is being pushed
at the rate of so feet per month
Superintendent Stevens reports that
the whole face of the tunnel in
sulphur, iron and copper, and he
realizes that he is on the verge of
important discoveries. The prop
erty is looking better now than it
ever did in its past history. The
ground is now so hard that it does
not require timbering, which is quite
a saving to the company. The com
pany has a sufficient amount of
work done to secure patents on
more than half its holdings. The
claims were surveyed during the
present summer, and will be patented
during the coming year.

Ambrose Burke, who is perhaps
more largely interested in property
in the Copper Mountain district than

was down from his camp this week,
and brings some encouraging reports

is kept busy the entire year with
small force of men on assessment
work on his own claims, or on claims
in which he is largely interested.
He reports that section of the camp
as livening up materially since the
advent of the Gold Belt Develop
