It is reported that the Pinkham mine, at Chloride, has been taken over by syndicate of copper operators. The property is one of the richest cop per mines in that section of the county and shows wonderful bodies of good grade ore. Should it be sunk below the present level it is expected that the secondary enrichment will show it to be as big copper mine as has ever been opened up in any part of the territory.

Dr. L. D. Godshall, who was in King man few days ago, informed us that the Needles shelter was again in con = mission, the broken parts of the big blower having been received from the foundry by express. Another large blower will soon be put in to furnish blast power for both copper and lead stacks, but this will not be placed in commission before the middle of Sep tember.

J. F. Tomlinson and J. E. Brown came down from Blackberry last Sun day evening and remained in town several days attending to business mat ters. The gentlemen are largely in- terested in mining property in the Wright Creek section. They stated that the shaft on the Copper Giant mine was in big ore, rich in gold and copper. The shaft is being driven downward as fast as possible and the ore was getting better with every foot gained.

H. l.. Harris and Fred Harter ar rived in Needles few days ago from Eldorado Canyon with nine tons of or which they were shipping to the Nee dles shelter. The trip was made on a raft, the journey from the Canyon to Needles having consumed, but eleven hours. The men had built a large rapt for the purpose of freighting their ore to market and the arrangement was entirely successful. Mir. Harris had five tons of ore from his mining claims which was considered very rich in both gold and silver. The ore brought down by Fred Harter was from one of the Wharton mines and was also very high in grade.
 Foster s. Dennis has gone to his mill at the Berkely mine and the plant is to be put into commission at once. An expert mill man has been engaged to run the plant and great results are anticipated. A trial run of the mill demonstrated that at least thirty tons of ore could be handled daily and that splendid grade of concentrates could be made. When the dumps have been cleared of ore the stopes can produce thousands of tons of ore of a much higher grade, and these will be called upon to furnish the bulk of the mater ial for the summers work. Situated as it is on the main road to Cedar the mill should be a great success. It is we'll supplied with water for all mill ing purposes and fuel can be easily hauled in from the railroad. It is twenty-two miles east of Yucca.

P. R. Smith, one of the largest min ing operators of the southwest, has been looking over the mining fields of this county the past week. He made examinations of several mining prop critics in Wallapai district and later went to the mines of the Copper World section, east of Yucca. He was much impressed with the copper possibilities of the county and believes that with the scientific outlay of money this would become one of the largest pro, ducers of copper in the territory. Mir. Smith departed to Los Angeles Thurs day evening, where he will meet and confer with his people.

J. w. Thorn, president of the Horse shoe Mining company, operating mines at Cerbat, departed yesterday morning on the flyer to his home in Philadel- phia. He is much pleased with the outlook at the mines, and believes he has the making of one of the best pro- ducers in the county. A holster was recently installed on one of the prop critics and is doing good work.

Laurence Harris, who at one time had charge of the Mollie Gibson mine, at Chloride. has charge of the Savan- nic mine, twenty miles south of St. George and in the northerly end of Mohave county. He has had hauled to Moapa, Nevada, 15OO tons of very rich copper ore from the property that is to be shipped to the Salt Lake smelters. The mine is one of the best copper producers in the territory, but is so far from railroad transportation

R. c. Ferguson. superintendent of t Blackfoot mine, came in from that p.,uI erty last Monday to meet J. B. Phillips, who recently purchased the Blackfoot from Owen McNeely and van, Brown. Mr. Phillips intends to do large amount of work on the mines within the next few months and is getting things in shape for a large addition to the force of m ners. It is also probable that he will take over other desirable property.

The Splendidly Elusive Tarpon
Less is known of the habits of the
tarpon than of any other game fish.
The difficulties OF finding IL. the uncer-
tainty Of getting it to strike and the
almost impossibility Of hooking 1t when
It does strike-owing to the bony
structure OF it's nlouth-tfe glorious
leaps. the many times 1t throws the
hook. all combine to make things SO
exciting from start TO finish that
words or pen fail to give the slight
est idea of the glorious sport.
at was my good fortune to discover
a new tarpon ground in Florida last
winter. It is at the head Of Biscayne
Bay, about four miles above Miami.
For some unaccountable reason the
theory prevailed that the tarpon would
not strike in these waters, although 1t
was a well known fact that they came
in there in large numbers as early as
January. When 1 saw a large school
Of them rolling there in March / made
up my mind that I would give them q

a strike which I was sure was a tarpon,
although no one else thought so.
Il know II is the common theory OF
anglers that fish bite better at certain
tides. This has been my own expert
ence with most fish, but not with the
tarpon. I have risen at all hours OF
the night to try a change OF tide with
out success. Moonlight adds to the
pleasure of evening fishing. but II has
not been my experience that the tarpon
bite better because of the moonlight I
have had them strike at all hours OF
the day, but have had ten strikes after
dark to one in the daytime.
For this reason ] decided to try At
night, so left Miami one afternoon with
