Officials Confident Extension OF Ma
yuma Hills Vein Has Been Opened.

E. w. Kelly ard William Craig,
prominently Interested in the Seven
Troughs Eclipse Mining company, ar
rived from Salt Lake City this week
and made an extensive examination of
the Eclipse property, says the Seven
Troughs Miner. Their visit was the
signal for the commencement of cross
cutting operations from the bottom of
the shaft and was the result of most
favorable reports from the mine. At
the 1s0-foot level. the shaft penetrated
a vein dipping west which disclosed u
very substantial body of ore. The news
of the discovery brought Mr.. Kelly and
Manager Craig to the property.
After examining conditions at the
mine, the visitors are convinced that
the orebody is the north cxtension o.

gan lease on the Mazurna Hills terri

way affords evidence that this is the

Through no fault of the machinery
at the light plant, the city was in
darkness for about three quarters of
an hour last night. The Mexican
firemen who are employed at the
plant were too busy celebrating their
national holiday and left the plant
so short of help that there would not
have been any lights at all, had it not
been for Herman Heiligmann, the
superintendent. who, On finding that
there was no one to do the work,
went to the plant and for three hours
fired the engines himself, in order
that the city might have lights.
