few feet of the surface. The Dagger 1 Well district is sixty-five miles
 northwest of Tucson about eighty 1 five miles east of Phoenix and is ! only few miles from the P t& F. railroad and will therefore be a val uable camp for increasing the Phoe-
 nix trade. It is also only thirty nine miles to Red Rock station. A big mining excitement may be looked for over there in the very near future The Renfro property, as develop ment goes on, is proving of much greater value than at first expected.
 A new tunnel has been started and an immense body of high grade ore was encountered at eighty five feet l This property is going to be an ex- ceedingly valuable property, as it is a high grade proposition and having
 vast bodies of ore. A complete sur
 vey Of the property has just been
 completed by Sultan & Wayne of
 Globe The Renfro group consists of
 twenty four claims and is located
 near Dripping Springs Wash. seven
 miles from the railroad. It is easily
 accessible from a number of direc-
 tiOns. There are seven distinct veins
 ranging from two feet to 125 feet on
 this property and it will make a
 very valuable proposition for the
 owners. Mir. Austin, a mining eX-
 pert of Johns Hopkins Institute, up-
 on looking tue property over, pro
 nOunced it one of the best proposi-
 tions in the country. A number of
 expert mining men have passed the
 same opinion on it It might also
 be mentioned that this property can all be worked by tunnels, thus say
 ing the very heavy expense of shaft and pumping machinery and that it Will pay from the grass roots. The
 Keufro property has lately been talk en over by J. Jay Sullivan.
 The owners of the Mohn group of sgold claims, located at Enman Sta tion, one and One-haIf miles from Kelvin, have had Jim Elder one of AriZona's best veteran prospectors, prospecting the property the last few months. He found traces of gold all over the group at first and kept fol- lowing it up and the last week pan ned out a number of large nuggets, and claims after a thorough pros pect, that there is a large ledge one half mile from Erman Station and that there are billions of tons of concentrated quartz coming from this large ledge which will yield in gold from $2.00 per ton up. A special visit was paid to this property and Jim Elder and J. Jay Sullivan pan ned some of the dirt and it was easily to be seen that this property will surely prove a bonanza. The location of property being direct on the railroad and on the banks of the Gila river is an immense advantage. This group of claims Is in hands of several Phoenix capitalists.
 The owners of the Daisy group of claims. lying on the west side of
 Mineral creek. and on the r. X F. railroad, adjoining Kelvin, have under way plans to commence active de- lvelOpment work in the near future. This is very valuable copper prop osition and should draw the atten- tion of capitalists seeking a good investment. It is now under option by J. Jay Sullivan.
 Geo. Clarke, an expert mining en- gineer of Tucson, and formerly of Bisbee, has been in Kelvin the past few days for the purpose of a com plete survey of the Sultana, Arizona Copper company, and also to locate
 mill site at Erman Station.
