Constable H. H. Barton of Kelvin, was down at the county seat, Tuesday. Mr. Barton has some copper prospects at Troy that are among the most prom ising properties in that splendid min eral section. He has just completed a new shaft to the depth of 80 feet and cut into a large body of chalcopyrites running r per cent copper. The shaft is making water at the rate of oOO gallons per day, too much to be han dled with windlass, and he will in- stall whim. The property is now under bond to Manager Chapin of the Troy Manhattan company and if Mr. Chapin does not take the property over soon Mr. Barton will go to ship ping ore. At the present price of cop per r per cent ore will pay a hand some profit over and above the cost of mining and marketing the ore. This will enable Mir. Barton to develop his property thoroughly and make money beside.-Florence Blade.

An illustrative of the wonderful prosperity of Kingman and it's sui- rounding country we note that the re- ceipts from incoming freight at King man station last month were more than eighteen thousand dollars, while the sales of tickets amounted to nearly six thousand dollars. When 1t is taken into consideration that the out going freight amounts to thousands of dollars monthly and that more than 50, ,OOO$ in bullion are shipped by ex- press besides the general run of the express business, it will be seen that the Kingman railroad office must be a busy place. It is said that nowhere on the line of the road is there a more prosperous office than that Of King man. And the country surrounding the town shows the same general pros perity of the railroad.

Sir William Ramsey, the famous English savant, has announced his suc- cessful degradation of copper to the first member of its family-lithium. While able to accomplish the degrad- ation of the metal, the learned gentle man makes no claim to its transmuta- tion. Lithium is the metallic base of the alkali lithia, and is one of the lightest of the solid bodies known. Although occurring in minute quanti- ties throughout the earth, it is consid- cred one of the rare metals. Like sodium it oxidizes on contact with wa ter. Taking the report as given out to the press we believe the fact to be that the learned gentleman has simply succeeded in producing the metallic salts of copper by process of degrad- ation in the same manner that lead may be converted back to its oxides or carbonates. But the paper on the subject, which will soon be read before the Chemical Society of England, will be read widely throughout the scien- tific world.

Recorder McNeely has received sev- enty-fve oil location notices for record from the Northern Mohave oil field. It appears that the finding of seepage in this county is bringing in prospec- tors in large numbers and we expect that should oil be found our northern strip will prove one of the most val uable possessions of the territory. The country is peculiar one, the forma- tion being sandstone, lime and shales. Tn places there are small cappings of volcanic tuff and ash, the turf covering the high cliffs in cubical pinnacles. Some distance north of the Grand Can- yon there are high granite mountain peaks covered with heavy growth of pine timber, which extends onto the great Buckskin or Kaibab Plateau. This plateau is sandstone and lime and many rich mines of copper have beer found in it, but owing to it's great dis tance from railroads little effort has been made to develop the mines. The country is broken by maize of box crnyons that spread out for sixty miles to the north of the Grand Canyon where they gradually open out into valleys of constantly increasing widtl until the valley of the Virgin is reach ed near St. George, the Mormon Dixie

It is understood that the engineers have measured up in the mines more than three millions of tons of ore of value in excess of fifteen dollars per ton, or , a total value of 45,O00,OO0$. Streaks have been found in the mine sever feet wide that give results as high as these streaks is 12O feet in length The mines are among the most won derful properties of the Pacific coast and the mystery of it is tha they have been allowed to lie idl, so long.

For several months the treasury de- partment has had agents in this coun- ty Investigating the cutting of wood on government land by the Grand Can yon Lime and Cement company. Con- plaint was made to the department about a year ago and since that time agents have been quietly going over the lands denuded of pinon pine and cedar. It is said that large acreage has been cut off and that suit will be instituted amounting to thousands of dollars for the value of the wood talk en. Since the ruling of the treasury department that cedar and small pinon pine trees come under the classi- fication as timber there have been many suits against companies and in- dividuals for cutting and purchasing the wood. The trees cannot be chased as timber except by large stretch of the imagination, but the ruling of the department is accepted by the courts and the fellow that butts up against the department always has to pay the price. It is said that in the past six years the lime company cut more than forty thousand cords of wood and re- moved it from the lands of the govern ment. Should they be assessed the price placed on it usually by the courts it will be heavy burden on the com pany. The lime and cement company is composed of Los Angeles men ant the business done by it is the larges on the coast. The wood alleged to have been illegally cut has been used in the | lime kilns.
