property during the past year makes q splendid showing, and an abundance of ore IS already blocked out and ready to be turned into matte as soon as the smelter is blown in. Mr. A. B. Richmond is personally directing the work at camp.
 Copper Era: John Costello has struck 8 vein of copper ore on the Little Johnny group at Patagonia. The ore was first encountered in a 75-foot shaft, sunk on the hill on which the claims are located. The copper-lead was traceable from the surface and area depth of 45 feet the copper ore was encountered, gradually widening through the next 35 feet, until at the 75-foot depth the bottom of the shaft is all in ore. Mir. Costello then went to point in the gulch below, 1700 feet from the shaft, and there tun- neled in under the iron capping, which at that point crops out strongly. There, close to the sur face, only about ten feet under the capping, but several hundred feet lower than the shaft on the hill he cut into two and half feet of sul- phide copper ore.

MINING NEWS.

Prescott Courier Another $4000 bar of gold was received yesterday ot the Prescott National bank from tbe Congress Consolidated Mining company at Congress, the results of cleanup at the mill after sev- eral days run. The gold bar will he forwarded to the branch mint at San Francisco today with the bar received todays ago from the Poland Mining company at Po- land.
 Vic ke n burg Miner: Robert Brannock, who is interested with l. 5. Withers in group of mining claims in the Secret Pass section, reports that he has uncovered some wonderfully rich ore in the property. Mornings from crop pings show up wonderfully. He believes he has made one of the most wonderful discoveries ever made in that section of the county. The veins are large and run through the country for miles.
 Florence Blade: The Lake Su- perior & Arizona Copper company will resume operations at their property situated at Superior, this county, early in June and will then be in position to maintain operations without interruption. At the recent annual election, held in Calumet, Michigan, the old officers were reelected and it was decided to retain Supt. Fred Hoar in that position. An assessment of $1.O0 per share was levied on the stock and the first installment of 50c per share will be due and payable May 20th.
 Tucson Post: The Virtue Min ing company will resume opera tions at Portal within a few days. As to the probable length of time of operations of this property, now that work has once more been be- gun, Manager Epley said he hopes and believes that it will not again become necessary to shut down that operations from this time on would be continuous. Of the same opinion is C.. E, Welch of Blue, Tex, a stockholder of the com pany, who, after visiting the prop erty finds that 1t more than meets his expectations.
 Wickenburg Miner: Harry Jones of the Arizona Copper Belt Mining company, operating the Texas group of mines, was in town Thurs day on business for the company. Mr. Jones informs the Miner that at depth of eighty feet he is talk ing out some fine sulphide ore, and that the face of the shaft is all in ore. They have been operating thus far with a windlass, but the company gave orders recently for the purchase of a small hoist which will be installed at once. MT. Jonesis is expecting represen- tatlve of his company to visit the property in few days.
 Benson Press: Late information rom the Traylor Machinery Com pany, of Denver, indicates that the new Mansfield smelter about to be installed will probably be, ready tor operation sooner even than the date contracted for, which is June 10: Meanwhile the grade of ore oeihg encountered in the Mans
