WORK ON GREAT BELCHER MINE
 RESUMED.
(rrem Wsdnssday's Dsily.)

After waiting many wccl.s Tor inc delivery of supply of coal, work on the Great l,clchcr mine, in the Big Hug district, will be resumed today under the direction of George Rohpcter, sup. crintendent. The three compartment working shaft will bc continued down from the 70O.foot level until depth of 1000 feet is reached, when the ledge will be opened by drifts and crosscuts. The north drift on the 200. level will be pushed 25O feet farther along the vein, to tap m ore shoot that shows m the upper levels, and from which n large amount of ore was mined many years ago that gave hand some returns.
 The present deep working shaft on the ground was sunk by the Henry E. Clifford company, when that concern assumed control of the two claims com. prising the group, about six years ago. Lately, the title passed 10 the T. s. Henderson company of St. Louis. which has subscribed ample finances to place the mine on producing basis.
 The mine is equipped with hoist ing plant, mir compressor and other mining machinery, which has been overhaulcd and repaired within the past few months, and 1t is expected that under the management of Mir. Roh. peter, who lately placed the Lone Pine mine on n paying basis, despite the fact that n New York engineer re. ported it practically worthless, the Great Bclchcr will be, within reason. able time, among the big producers of the Big Hug district.

COMPANIES HAVE INSTALLED
 NEW MILLS.
(Irom Thursdays Daily.)

." In spite of the fact that the wagon roads leading into the Cherry Creek district have been in bad condition for several months past, on account of the heavy winter storms, mining ap' pears ,o hc as active as ever therc,' said |. R. Boyer, pioneer mine owner from that section of the country, to n Journal Miner man, yesterday.
 "'rhc new Lloyd mill installed by tu. Square Deal Mining company works as smoothly as a clock, and test run made recently of loo tons of orc from inc mines of inc Federal Mining com. pany gave better results than was eS. pcctod. The management is now pre- pairing to make test run of 100 tons of ore from their mines. The mill uses only about ouethird of the power de. velopcd by the water wheel and as far as tested shows that it is well adapted to the economic treatment of the ores of that district.
 "The 3.stamp .',sscn mill," hc said, lis about installed on tho Golden Idol Mining company's mines, and will be ready for operation in a short time. Considerable delay has been cxperi. cnced in the delivery of machinery, on account Of the bad roads, but the final consignment is expected at camp in few days. The mill is equipped with three plates 3xlO feet each in dimensions, which will afford plenty of plate surface for the ore that passes through the batteries"
 Mir. Boyer is now on his way to tho southern part of the Territory to OK. anime copper property for an east crn syndicate. His faith in the mineral resources of his district has never faltered since he settled there, many years ago, and his judgment has been rewarded at different times by the successful placing of properties of merit to good advantage to himself and asso. | ciatcs.

MAKE RICH FIND IN DUNK1RK
 MINE.
(From Wednesdays Daily.)

Stockholders of the Mount Tritlc Copper company are clatcd over what appears to be the most important min .f,l strike made in ihc Dunkirk mine since the property was taken over by the company. The find was made few days ago in tunnel No. 2, which is now in distance of iG0 feet on the vein.
 Tho new find is more important from tho fact that the orc shoot was cn' countcrcd at n point which was always considered almost barron, there being no surface indications of the existence of n body Of orc beneath. The entire face of tho tunnel is now in orc which samples in gold and copper better 'hnn so to the ton. Work is being pushed on the new ore body, day and night shifts being employed in driving the tunnel ahead.
 Considered almost equally ns impor tant as the foregoing is another body of orc unexpectedly encountered at the end of the upper stopcs, where the vein was also considered barren, and where shoot of ore is now exposed three and one half feet in thickness, Of the same general character as that being opened in tunnel No. ,. Day and night shifts arc also at work in this part of the mine and large amount of ore is being taken ont and piled on th" dumps ,o bc shipped to the liumboll, shelter.
 Contractor Ycomaus commenced yes tcrday transporting ore from the mine to this city. where it will bc loaded on the ears for transportation, and | D. l.. Williams. vice president of th, company. stated yesterday that regular 1 shipments would bc continued from th, camp.
 The compauy's holdings covers 5000 | feet of the Dunkirk vein. which i' among the early discoveries of the dis trict. and from inc grassroots working | of which large mount of high grade ore was shipped 10 smcliers in othci states and treated on the ground h,

Tho concern has a record of pushing work on nll of it's properties with an energy unsurpassed anywhere, sparing no ex' ucnsc in opening it's mines along tho lines of modern mining methods.
 In one of the group of five claims there is n remarkable showing of gold ore. according to the statements or en- yiuocrs who have examined it. One shoo, of ore is uncovered nt depth of loO feet from the apex of the ledge ovcr 100 feet in length and with an average thickness of thiriy.six inches, which samples better than $'5 m goid ,o ,b, ion. The mine has been oper- o,,d bv iis former owners for the past fen years and inc values extracted from the ores mined from the surface workings by the arastra method. In addition. several shipments of high gradc gold ore were made that netted handsome profits. The ore IS found in porphyry dyke from 10 to 20 feet in width on the surface, that cuts through the granite country formation in n northcrly and southcrly direction for long distance, dipping to tho east at an angle of 33 degrees. Tho group is located two and onc.half miles northeast of the santa Maria river,

JAIL BREAKER IS GIVEN FIFTY
 DAYS.
(From wcdncsday's Daily.

Henry Hodges. wnosc own peculiar interpretation of the Arizona statutes keeps him constantly in trouble, and likewise. n greater portion of the time, in the county jail, was yesterday sen fenced in the justice court to serve fifty days at hard labor for breaking Jail.
 About two months ago Hodges was sent below for ninety days for attempt. ing to beat n roulette game in one of the Jerome resorts by dlehing stack of silver while the dealer was not looking. He was caught in the act and the money recovered.
 After serving a month of his sen tence Hodges gained the position of trusty," doing odd jobs about tho court house. Several days ago he was sent out by Deputy Bowdre to groom the lattcr's horse. As soon as he was out of sight of the officer he forgot his orders and hiked for the tall tim. bcrs adjaccnt to the city, being caught near Wiekenburg after hard chase on tho part of the deputies.
 When arraigned in Justice McLano's conrt, yesterday, Hodges acted as his own legal representative, and insisted that inasmuch as he was not incar. ceraied in the county bastilc at the time ho took French leave, it was n physical impossibiity for him to break out of jail, and that, therefore, ho should bo allowed his liberty. This peculiar interpretation of the statute, when picked to pieces by the assistant district attorney, fell flat, and Justice McLane imposed the sen. tcnco as stated above.
 Another Jailbrcaker Bound Over. Maeario Valdez, native of the Hot Tamale republic, who broke jail at Jerome, some time ago, and was rc. gently rccapturcd by tho shcriff's of. flee, was yesterday given n hearing on the charge and bound over to await the action of tho grand jury, his bond being fixed at $500. Not being able to give security for the required amount Valdez was committed tO jail.

~ 900 of the 100000 900 inhabitants
of the United States now live in com.
munities in which the law does not

Roosevelt in indianapolis.
The liquor question cut a figure in

the democratic party in Kentucky and
