MINING NEWS.

He is also very en- thusiastic over the future of the Gold Belt and predicts for it sur prising results in the very near
 future.
 Benson Press: E. L. Hickey dis
 covered last week that his accumu-
 lation of ore on the dump of the Minnie Morgan claim in the Vel lowstone Mountains about fifteen miles from Benson, had been stolen, and also observed that the ore on one of MT. Gray's claims which adjoined his property had also been removed. The ore is high grade copper, about 40 per cent, and would bring about $160 per ton; his estimate is about two tons of ore is missing.
 Clifton Era: Walter Doudna, who has done a considerable amount of painting in Clifton, has leased the Gypsy Queen mine from J. T. Yeakey for period of three years. The claim is situated on the Coronado railroad. Only small amount of work has been done on it, but there is a good showing and Walter thinks that with development work some good shipping ore will be encountered. He has several painting contracts to finish, and will start mining about month from this date.
 Prescott Courier: Hon. A. J. Doran took a flying trip to Kirk land yesterday, in which vicinity he examined Andy Laswell's cop per group, where he saw some very fine looking ruby copper. He brought some of the specimens back with him. The ore is about 40 per cent copper and Mir. Doran says 1t is the only ruby cop per he has seen in this section. This is the property from which Judge Bethune shipped some ore years ago. when copper was very low.
 Prescott Courier. w. s. Conner is in the city from Walker, near which point he has been doing development work on the Grub stake and Lambertine group, five claims in all. On the Grubstake he has seven feet of free milling ore. with no hanging wall in sight, which gives an average assay value of $4.60 ton, ten cents of which is silver and the balance gold. Ore IS taken from the Lambertine which assays as high as $100 a ton. MT. Conner says that Walker, as district, has no superior in the west, which fact will be shown in time.
 Florence Blade: Geo. Wood- bury, who was here last week from the Superstition mining camp in the Rogers district, gave out infor- nation that the mining company in which he, his brother Gene, his mother and his uncle, Dick Gird, hold the controlling interest, has ordered one of the new dry con centrating plants DOW manufac- tured in Los Angeles. It will handle 300 tons of ore per day. Air currents instead of water are used to effect the separation of the values from the gaugue. An ex-

ments by Ashford'S De-
partment Needed

tween the Board of Education and the
District Commissioners having nut AZ
end TO the differences OF opinion be-
tween the Building Inspector and the
chairman of the board as to The condi-
tons in the school buildings. il viii be
the indirect cause OF Captain oyster

other statement again calling attention
to what he thinks should be done by the
building Inspector in improving and re-
pairing the schools.

the District building shall be made for
malIv between the chairman of the
board and the Commissioners. 1t was
also thought that the Building Inspector
and the board would have no further
disagreements.
This afternoon, however, Captain Oys-
ter said that as a result OF tours of in
spectioq he made through the school
buildings today and last week. it viii
be his duty to make a detailed and en-
phatic statement 10 the board at its
meeting Wednesday, calling attention to
some defects and faults found in the
buildings, which are under the super
vision OF the Building Inspector.
This statement will in all probability
be adopted by the board and then for
warded TO the Commissioners, as the
boards official complaint against the
found by Captain Oyster.
and as a request that the Building In
spector make haste 10 repair the faults
in the buildings.
That favorable. progress is being made
