 of 65 tons daily, with steam aud gaso- line engines, a large boarding house, bunk house, containing 16 rooms of | fee building, warehouse, blacksmith ! shop, barn and five dwelling houses. | The property is equipped with electric ! light and a m.lliea gallon cement reser- | voir, which furnishes water for mill 1 ing and fire protection. There are also 30.0O0 gallon galvanized iron tanks for extra water and fuel oil supply.
 The Model Mine, located south of Kirkland, will not be operated at pre- sent. 1t has depth of 300 feet, but will require the expenditure of much money in development work before any returns could be expected. It is equipped with m ironclad mill build | ing, five stamp mir, steam engine, boiler, tanks, q bunk house, boarding house and barn. At present the mill is under lease to T. M. Earnhart of Kirkland.
 The consolidation of the McCabe and Gladstone mines cannot help but make good money for the stockholders. The development work in the Glad stone has been paid for out of the ore taken from the mine. The McCabc mine has practically done the same thing. The failure of the Model company is directly due to attempting to rebuild it's plant, which burned May 9th, 1903, rc-timber its shafts, and do its development work from the earnings of the mine, but the burn inp of the smeltcr made this impossible and the property was thrown into the hands of n receiver. These properties are made more va luablc than ever before by the i'm proved conditions in this district, such as the building of the new 600 ton shelter at Humboldt, only four miles from McCabe. the piping of water
 to McCabe from the mountains by tho
 Arizona Water. Light and Power company, and the prospects of rail road being built from the main iin'
 of the Prescott and Eastern railroa' o up the gulch to the town of MeCabe
 with side tracks into both the Me , Cabe and Gladstone mines. Consid I, erabie previous mention has bce'
 made of this railroad, and its compie @ ton within the next twelve or eight l.. cen months is almost an assured fact
 the final surveys having already bee n, completed.
 ' Another feature which will add. mue
 profit to these mining interests is ti
 large capacity of the new local smel CT, together with the stability of tt
 smelting company, enabling these pr
 perties to market the ore at compar ~. lively small freight cost.
 We arc informed shat the Ideal con . pnny has set aside. and made arrang mcnts for n sum of money sufficient
 thorough equip the Mccabe min ,-o install new boilers, new pumps. repiI
 the mine and continue sinking q main shatf as rapidly as the vol
 can be accomplished; nt tue san % time opening up levels under the O
 shoots which are known to exist. Th -. have also decided to put both pro
 critics under one management, and using great care in selecting men .., wide experience. The latest metho of economical mine operation will ,., employed.
 Great success is expected for th' " combined properties. which is prov "S' by the fact that number of our lo'
 people have taken stock in the id - ~ Mining and Development company. " Several months will be required
 make the improvements contemplate " and get them in working order, but y production will begin at once. n n" feel warranted in nying that th properties will prove to the stockh' nv CTS a fine paying investment nnd | ny our predictions in the pnst for the
