Mines of the County
 E. J. McNUlty, superintendent of the Aztec Turquoise mines, was in from Mineral Park last Thursday. T.e mines are outputting considerable good quality gem stones.
 It is understood that the Aik and Sln Antonio mines. near Mineral Park. have been taken over under lease and bond by mining men from the northern country and that work will soon be commenced on the prop e ties. The mines are owned by St. Louis company.
 The figs at the Tennes see mine are working nicely md saving practically the zinc values. Two carloads a week are now being shipped from the mill to the eastern zinc works and it is be- lieved that carload day will soon be sent out. The same parties are working the Elkhart and are making a marketable product.
 J. C. Noble, who is interested in mining properties in the Cerbat sec tion' arrived in Kingman Sunday nj ght from Denver. He is preparing to do a great deal of work on the mines and believes he has some of tle b,st mining property in the county. E. H. Brennan is inter- ested with him in the property.
 supt. J. w. Quinn, who was in King nun few days ago, reported that in the upraise, in the Enterprise mine, the lead ore streak has widened out to eighteen inches of solid metal and that in the drift immense bodies of ore were showing up. The mine never looked better than at present. Sink ing will soon be resumed on the prop erty and the mine thoroughly exploit ed to the 300 level.
 It is reported that an immensely rich find of gold ore was made a short time ago on the Barnwell branch of the Santa Fe, near Manvel. The shaft. which was slnk to depth of ten feet, is fairly aglisten with gold. Speci- mems from the vein are laced together with the yellow metal. An option was taken on the property by railroad men and it is probable that when the. news of the strike becomes general there will be a rush to that field.
 2 George NJ. Bowers has gone to the N.ghthawk mine, where he met A. N. Douglas, of Los Angeles. who is mak- ing an examination of that famous old property. It is understood that Mir. Dou glas and assoc iates will take over the mine and work il on a large scale. Tn mine is opened by a drift that reaches the vein several hundred feet from the ro-tal. This drift is now in over l419 feat and about 700feet below the apex. Great ore has been taken from this level. Below the level winze was recently sunk short dis tance and good ore extracted.
 W. H. Cushing, for the Stockton Hill mining company. has taken over the MoOnbeam mine. owned by Rod. Mclean. and the K. P. and P. K. mines, owned by Leonard Kimerly and John C. Potts. The mines will be worked on a large scale in the near future. The Moonbeam mine is cred tied with an output of l50,O00S and has considerable good grade lead ore now in sight. The other mines have been opened to a depth of about 60 feet and have been crosscut 60 feet without finding walls. The ore in the proper ty is lead-silver and the bodies are very large. A mill is to be put on the Cupel mine and all the ores from the conpany's property dressed up for market.
 John Boyle and Ed. F. Thompson this week visited the Vanderbilt mine. at Cerbat, owned by the Cerbat Moun- tain Mining Company. They found things at that property moving along nicely. On the 250 level the drifts have been run on the vein over loo feet and big ore body opened up. Mr. Boyle states that this ore is much
