Santa Cruz County Mines.

Much work is being done on the 40 miles south of Tucson. F. w. Frickett Is general manager of these mines and is also in charge of the Old Pueblo mine, which is five miles west of Tucson. At the Purcell mine, 25 men are at work. The Washington shaft, No. ], is down 95 feet and sink ing, and a tunnel is being run also. The tunnel is in 25O feet. A crosscut is being run at Washington claim No. 2, located 2,OOO feet from the shaft on the other property. A shaft will be sunk from the top of the hill to con- nect with the tunnel.
 It is curious fact, says the Tucson Star, that one of the largest mining deals consummated in Santa Cruz county in years, was engineered by Tucson man, and created very little comment either here or at Patagonia, the latter the nearest shipping point for the two big properties involved The Flux and the Hardshell mines, controlled by R. R. Richardson, of Patagonia, passed under bond and lease to the Patagonia Mining com pany as result of the activity of Ben Heney of Tucson The company is officered by President Ben Heney and Secretary and Treasurer R. R Richardson, with Francis J. Heney for counsel and Frederick John Zebert. consulting engineer. The company has expended more than $1OO.O0O in development on the two properties this summer.
 The old Mowry mines, in the Pata- gonia country, for some time operated by the Santa Cruz Mines and Smelter company, an organization which also took over the Alto Copper company properties in the Santa Rita range, have not been actively operated for months, the mill and shelter having been shut down and the force reduced last spring Mining Re- view.

Tombstone District is Prosperous.

While the depression in copper stocks has thrown most all of the pro- ducing camps of Arizona into a de- lirium of ataxy, the Tombstone mines continue in an even tenor. About the same number of men continue on the payrols, development is the order of the day and ore shipments go for ward undiminished. The T. O. NJ. Go. is raising 5,000,0O0 gallons of water per "A hours which serves to drain the several workings and permit of syste- matic exploitation of virgin territory, the exertion being literally rewarded by high grade ores sufficient to keep forty stamps constantly dropping. the run being 200 tons every twenty-four hours. The usual shipments continue to the Fl Paso smelters, numerous workings in the prospect stage con- tributing to swall the output of the Tomstone district.
 It is worthy of mention that most of the development of prospects in the near vicinity of Tombstone is being carried on by old timers of the district not venturesome spirits-men who have delved to the water level; and their ventures now are guided in part from information gleaned while earn ing a wage in the depths of T. O. NJ. And it is no doubt pleasure to the horney handed miner to realize that his judgment has not failed him. While he has not as yet uncovered a "home- stake." he is faithful in the belief that the coveted cache is not far distant. and while he continues to sink, and garner coin at the same time, his neighbor joins him in his belief that he will ''strike it rich" soon. The miner is certain that there is wealth beneath the surface of the Tombstone district. to gain which requires muscle and perseverance only.-Prospector.

AjO Mines Sold for $7O,OOO.

The time famous Ajo mines, in Pima county, just over the Yuma county line, have been purchased iy the Fenddell Ore Reduction Com pany for S7O,O0O The stock kholders of this company are mostly Philadel- phia capitalists. Several carloads of machinery are now at Gila Bend ], where it will be hauled hy wagon to the mines. A. shaft will be sunk and systematic development work at once started.
 The A.jo property was one of the early day producers and though only crude mining has heretofore been done more than $500, 900 worth of ore has been taken out In the early days the ore was freighted in wagons to San Diego, by the way of Yuma, and thence to San Francisco by boat. As only the richest ore was "gophered." !" there were several rich cargoes. - Yuma Sentinel

New $5O,OOO Bridge

The new bridge now being built by branch. this side of FaIrhanks, will cost S5O,0OO The steel has been on the ground for the past two or three months, the company waiting for the freshet season to pass, says the Tucson Citizen.
 The bridge will be 300 feet long and two spans of 15O feet each, all steel . The old straining beams and trestle approach on the east end will be filled in.
 The bridge crew have been on the ground for the past week and are now putting in the west end concrete abut- ments. It will take between three and four moths before the bridge is fully completed.
 In style it Is the same as the com pany bridge near Benson on the main line, only not quite so heavy. From Benson to Fairbanks workmen are busy looking after the work of rip rapping and ditching.
 w. Bradford, assistant resident en- gineer did all the laying out and sur veying for the work, and O. w. Mc- Oandlass is in charge.
 The permanency of this work es- tablishes to certainty the fact that the road from Benson south to Noga- les and Guaymas is to be one of the main lines of the Southern Pacific.
 The rails used at present are known as the G2 pound rail, while on the main line they have the 75 and so pound rails.

DOING BUSINESS.
Regular Meeting of City Dads Held
 Monday Evening.

Monday Evening. Monday evening the City Dads met in the council hambers at the Court
 House.
 Mayor Brick wood, Councilmen O. Connor, Peck, Doherty and Reddoch,
 Marshal Moore and Clerk Rathbun
 were present, besides A number of tax payers who are interested in the pro- ceedings of the honorable body.
 The session was long and interest ing, a great deal of business looking to the betterment ot the town of Nogales being transacted, besides the auditing and allo wing of the regular monthly demands.
 Perfect harmony prevails among the members of the city council, who with the able assistance of Mayor John T. Brick wood, are working faithfully, unselfishly and hard for the welfare of Nogales, the beat town, for it's size on the international border, or any where else for that matter.
 Many propositions for the better ment of the town were discussed at leng9h by the council and action taken then and there, without a dissenting vote being recored by Clerk Rathbu", who, by-the-way, is making good' in every respect, and is doing more work than any other man in Nogales, for the same money. However, the gentleman is rapidly becoming familiar with the detail work. of hIs responsible position, and being an expert steno- grapher, experiences no trouble keep ing things in ship-shape.
 Nogales has good cause to be proud of her City Dads. Each and every one has the future welfare of the town at heart, and at this particular time when all signs point to a season of un- precedented prosperity, no better men could be selected to fill the important, thankless positions to which they were elected by an overwhelming majority at the last city election.
 Marshal Moore asked for an as- sistant night watchman; also for in formation as to what action to take in cases where business men refused to pay license as provided in Ordinance No. 59 An assistant will no doubt be appointed in the near future, he was requested to read the ordinance and follow instructions, being assured of the hearty support of the council.
 The Sanitary Committee was to purchase a Milk Tester for use of the City Health Officer. The same will be ordered at once.
 Two merchants appeared before the honorable body and protested against paying license for doing business in the city. Their kicks were laid on the table, and will be given due considera- tion. The kick of Mir. N. Leeker was the most vigorous of the two executed.
 The clerk was instructed to write Averill regarding the of railroad on Morley avenue |

B A. Neighbors and Pat Sheehy

B A. Neighbors and Pat Sheehy, pros pectors from the Patagonia country, are in town securing expert opinion on lot of good looking mica specimens. They assert that within l5O miles of Tucson, to the westward, they have located a big deposit of mica, which they think is of great value. They say that close to the surface they uncovered the vein, enough, to prove that it was from four to eight inches in width, and could be taken out in unbroken slabs from twenty to forty inches wide. If their expert reports favorable on the quality of the mica, big group of claims will be at once located, and preparations made fer aotivc GCYclopl-Crt.-Tucson Star.

Bessie Brooks.

Ed. Peck, the old Indian fighter. after whom the Peck mine was named, was in Globe a few days ago. Tn regard to Bessie Brooks, the Apache girl reared by the late Mir. and Mes. Hezekiah Brooks, Peck said to a reporter of the Silver Belt:
 "My stay in Globe will be brief I have business that will consume about 20 days of my time in Mexico, and l must be back in Prescott by November to testify in the famous Brooks estate case.
 s'The Indian girl is now 35 years old. I was engaged in the controversy that left the now Miss Brooks a papoose on a bloody battlefield, and it was bullet from my gun that laid low her old squaw nanny. The squaws were fighting as fiercely as the bucks. The old squaw was doing very effective work I took good aim. and she dropped. As she fell, I noticed that papoose was strapped to her back, and as soon as I could sately approach the body unlaced the babe and turned it over to MT. and Mrs. Brooks, who reared the child"
 Ed Peck is well known in Nogales, where he has at different times resided during the past ten years. MT Peck is one of the pioneer mining men of Arizona, and during the past thirty years has made and spent several fortunes His numerous friends in thls section join TIE VIDETrE in the wish that he may strike it again. Ed. was hero two weeks ago on his way to Sonora.
