 WEEKLY MINE RESUME
BiSbee-Sonora Gets Ore Body In Tunnel Machinery
 Coming For Savage,

The following weekly resume of Op. erations in the Paradise Mining dis trict is from the Paradise Record:
 H. N. Reno, F. B. Dorr and H. C. Beumler, all of Douglas, visited the BisbeeSonOra property the first of tie week, making the trip in MT. RenO's automobile They returned to their homes in that city bringing news oI an important strike in the upper tunnel on that property last Saturday night.
 This intelligence is confirmed by visitors reaching Paradise from the Bisbee- Sonora. It is learned here that at the last accounts the tunnel had been in ore for four feet, the ore carrying good values in copper suI- phides. By those who have seen Lne tunnel since this ore was encountered the strike is regarded as an import ant one; and it is the opinion of an experienced miner employed there that there is an excellent chance to make a mine out of the property.
 It is understood that power drills are to be installed as soon as possible and that operations will also be be- gun soon in the lower tunnel, an increase in the working force being promised soon.
 Hanhsttan.
 Manhattan stockholders recently received. by circular letter, notice to the effect that the annual meeting of tn stOckholdrs of tn company will be held at Tucson, Saturday, Feb. 22. At this meeting officers and di- rectors for the ensuing year will be elected. At a later date to be de cided upon by the new officers, a di- rectors' meeting will be held at the office of the company at HOugnJUn, Mich.
 Savage.
 The machinery recently ordered for installation on the Savage includes two TempIe-Ingersoil Electric-Aair drils, also a gasoline hoist. This machinery was ordered some time ago, and will be installed and put in operation as soon as received. The power drills were purchased From the IngersollRand Co, of Fl Paso.
 The new vertical shaft in which machinery is to be installed is on the Snowball claim, and at the 50-foot level connects with the old shaft incline which has been the center of operations on this property for more than two years. The new shaft is all in ore.
 It is not expected that the company will have a very large pay roll at the mine while awaiting the arrival of the machinery. A force of men is still at work, however, building the new road which when completed will shorten the distance between the

Eight engineers on the Fl Paso & Southwestern have been reduced to the rank of firemen until business along the line picks up sufficiently to warrant the need of more engines. These men were not chosen but were taken in the order of seniority, the eight youngest engineers in the ser vice being the ones on whom the blow ifelI. Five of these are Douglas men with headquarters here. They are Engineers Chillius, BOdenhammer, Wright. McDonnough and Monney.
