depth Of 300 feet and had an ore body over sixty feet wide in places, much of which was high grade, running well
 into the hundreds, and it is reasonable
 to suppose that deeper exploration in
 ings will open up new ore bodies which telligently conducted along the brec- ciated fault Assure below the old work will pay handsomely
 Griffin Bros, Barker & Mccoy have opened up high grade ore on their new claims six miles west of Salome, at a depth of thirty feet, and have some ore which will run well up into the hun dreds, while occasional specimens are liberally sDrinkled with coarse gold The ledge is about four feet wide and all horns well, but much of it needs no horning to demonstrate it's value. MT. Frank Riser, representing Colorado people, is working the Wilson gold property near the Griffins and Is get ting down into the ground rapidly with a force of seven men, following a good sized ledge which is said to carry pay values it's entire width. About twenty new prospectors have gone into this schist belt during the past two weeks and the indications are good for some big finds in the near future. This is the section, where, in early days a Phoenix man piloted by a Mexican, ex- tracted several thousand dollars from a large quartz powder. but was unable to locate the vein from which it came.

i Several times since then pieces of float have been picked up which contained from a few to nearly a hundred dollars in gold, but no one has yet been able to find the ore in place, and as the float has been picked up over wide area it is probable that it comes from the main contact of the schist and granite somewhere further up the mountain. White quartz "blowouts' are numerous all through the schist belt, as well as hundreds of diorite cross dikes, and as the rich ore opened up this week by the Griffins. Barker x Mccoy occurs in one of these appar- ently barren quartz outcrops, the lndl- cations are that further intelligent prospecting and development will open up some good ore bodies. It is good field for prospectors who don't want to watch the bean pot all day.
 McEntee Bros have taken contract from E.. A. Haggott to sink 100 feet on the Cholla property five miles south Of Salome, near the Harqua Hala, and have a force of men at work. Los An geles people are interested in this property, under option to Mir. Haggott, and the gossan outcrOps are being sunk on with view of determining the min eralization beneath.
 The Harqua Hala Development Co. has 2 large force of men at work on their submerged irrigation dam eight miles south of here, and will soon be ready to drive their sheet iron coffer dam and start upon the concrete struc- ture. which is expected to furnish about five thousand miners inches flow for irrigation and power Fred Christen is in charge Of the work, which is being done with Fresno scrapers attached to an endless cable, actuated by an ordi- nary steam hoist, the cable running back and forth, one scraDer dumping while the other fills. The completion of this project and the irrigation of the fertile lands below the dam will be help to the mining industry on account of the reduced prices of hay, grain and vegetables The underground stream being damned, drains the entire val lev lying between the Harcuvar and Harqua Ha1a mountain ranges and is expected to supply ample water for fifteen to twenty-five thousand acres.

SATISFIED PATRON

A No. 1, the Rambler, Writes a Tes timoniaI To the Perfection of It's Roa1bed and Equipment.

About three weeks ago The Repub- lican gave quite lengthy story of the career and life work" (the use of the word work is made with apologies to the dictionarv), of "A No. 1,' the champion tramp of the world. It is not proposed to repeat that story now. only to say that for the last quarter of a century A No 1 has made a pro- fession of riding on railroads without paying his fare and that his only ob- ject in leaving one city Is to get to another, for he is an acknowledged victim of wanderlust. He is constitu- tionally unfitted to be anything but a tramp so his ambition is to be the most notable one in the world and te has now got about to the top of the ladder. in fact he claims to be already perched on the top rung. He wears good clothes and seeks to do all the good he can by preventing wrecks. in specting railroads and making volun- tary reports for the good of tho ser vice. etc.
 In line with this field of endeavor wherever he sees a poor struggling railroad company trying to make a name for itself. if it is deserving he likes to give it a helping hand. remem- bering the time before he learned the business of being deadbeat, so thor oughly that he needed no further help. It was the railroads that made him famous and he does not mean to de- sert them now that he has things com ing his own way. A case in point is the following letter which A No. 1 gave to w. $. GoldswOrthy on the oc- casion of his recent visit to Phoenix: W. & Goldsworthy,
 General Agent s. F. P. & P. Rail-
 way Co.
 Dear Sir:
 came underneath the observation car of the California Limited from Chicago, III. to Hutchison, Kans.. 692 miles. and wish to state that not alone was the track velvet" but so dustless that my overalls which I wear to pro tect my $40 tailor made suit. didn't need brushing and that my black der by only showed a little dust caused at crossings of the Santa Fe with less carefully looked after railroad right of ways.
 Yours truly,
 A No. (the Rambler).
