GREAT DEPOSITS OF
 GOLD AND COPPER UNCOVERED
,From Thursa.v,s paitn

,From Thursdays DailyD
 That the new copper country tribu- tary to the Arizona and California rail. road, in Arizona and California. IS among the richest mineral regions in the west, is the opinion of ]. T. Me. Laugnlin, general manager of the Dun kirk Mining Company, who left here last night for his company's camp if. teen miles west of the Colorado river in California. Mclaughlin is cnthusi. astic over the fact that his concern owns five claims covering one of the riches, mineral showings in that sec tion and is confident that the property will develop into one of the great ones of the west.
 In my years of experience in min. ing in this and other states, never saw such promising surface showing anywhere, bc said. "when l was first attracted io thc property, l was in' formed by an engineer who sampled it of the high grade values in the crop pings, but did not believe him until I satisfied myself with a thorough exami' nation of the ground. My examination verified his statement but 1 was yet loath 10 believe that such rich de- posit of ore lay untouched until an other examination was made. It is al. most beyond belief, but fact that sam. ples taken across the croppings forty fee, wide give returns of $35 in gold and that there is an additional fifteen fee, on one of the walls that gives re. turns of sl56 in gold and eight and a half per cent in copper. The deposit can be travcd on the surface a distance of zoo feet.
 Brownell. who discovered it last year. is the discoverer of other proper ties that proved valuable with develop men,. When hc found this he pro nounecd it the richest surface showing hc had ever seen. He still believes that he has added 10 his long list of dis covcries that will prove as rich as any in either Arizona or the Golden State. "
 In his last visit to the property Me I.auphlin let a contract 10 sink dou' ble compartment shaft 100 feet. This work is now under way and as soon as hc arrives on the ground he will start force sinking another shaft. He is remembered here some years ago as general manager of the Henrietta mine. He stopped over ho-e yesterday on his way from his home in Albuquerque Co the property to renew acquaintance with old time friends.

 RICHER THAN EVER
fFr.m wednssaay's Daily)

No better evidence of the richness and wonderful possibilities of the Oc- ,ave mine can be produced than the large gold bars which find their way 10 the branch mint al San Francisco through the Prescott National Bank of this city with surprising regularity. Following the other recent bullion ship ments of the Octave Mining Company, another gold bar, weighing 930 ounces, reached the Prescott National Bank here yesterday. The bar is of hgh grade gold. In addition a large ship ment of concentrates was also made. proving the property's rigat to distin- guished place among the present gold producing mines of the county.

 Sinking has been temporarily sus- pended in the Snylock shaft by the Central Arizona Copper Company, the hois,ing machinery on the ground prov ing inadequate in capacity to hoist economically below the 600 foot level, the present depth of the shaft. The management expects to install new and heavier machinery at an early date when sinking will be resumed. The re- port that water icvci had been reached in the shaft some time ago proved to bc a mistake. 1, is true that n pocket of water was struck, which soon drain cd out. leaving the shaft as dry as us ual. While waiting for the installation of the new hoisting plant, to which will be added an air compressor plant oi large capacity, operations VIII be con fined to running drifts and crosseut' from the different levels. The 300 foot level. in which there is an excellent or' NnOMlnH, IN
