 Whetstcnes.
 Simon Galon has two very attract i've propositions in this district which Is simply a north extension of the Huachucas. His properties, the Black Oak and the Mascot, would be snatched up like so many tidbits were they in a more popular locality. Aside from these there is nothing of consequence in sight at the pres ent time.
 The Rincons.
 Messrs. Shattuck, Muheim and a number of Slavonians are heavily in- terested in this, the most remote min ing district in the country and as soon as the estate of John Weslidge can be settled up some systematic work will be done there. There is also a strong rumor to the effect that a new, independent customs smelter will be built in Benson, cutting out entirely the old Pidgeon system of pro- crastipation. ....
 Johnson.
 Very little has been doing at John son since the tumble of copper. Pre- parations for the building of a branch road from Dragoon have faded out and nothing can be accurately pre- dicted for the district at the present imsI -r r. a ... .......
 r Tombstone.
 The situation at Tombstone is in teresting. Just recently several of the management appeared on the ground, Frank Murphy, E. B. Gage and several Detroit parties. The Tombstone Consolidated Mines com pany is a branch of the parent com pany known as the Mining and De velopment company of America
 A consultation was held by the powers and as result the Tomb stone Consolidated is starting of on lines of systematic expansion. Among other improvements, new pumps are now being installed in the Boom shaft which will raise the pumping plant in commission there to the enormous capacity of ten million gallons every 24 hours. This would certainly in dicate that the company intends to expand it's operations.
 The 40 stamp mill has been running almost exclusively on old dumps since it was installed; in the mean, time the high grade ore taken from the mine was shipped and the second class reserved for the mill
 The faith and confidence the com. pany showed in the old camp is cal. culated to bear out the old state ment that they are ahead of expenses with sound prospects in waiting. The Dragons.
 After a perecptable lulI in the Ora goons, following on the trail of the late financial disquietitude the low hum of interest and activity is again resuming in the shadow of the Cochise Stronghold. The Calumet & Arizona people are still holding on to most of their option on the LeadyiIle ana in the meantime they have acquired an option on the Cowan properties and are preparing to explore that proper ty vigorously.
 The Young brothers are also pre- pairing to open up the Great West ern in ample form, and judginl ! from results reaped by comparative | they should feel highly encouraged with the outlook
 | The Black Diamond, one of thC most promising and worst abused | half developed propositions in tht county, is promised a new manage ment which it is believed will giv' the property chance common surate with it's merits.
 The chiricahuas, Swishiems, etc. l There Is nothing of consequence doing in the Chiricahuas today. Tn, Savage People propose to ship ant develop. They have a showin; which would command millions wer, 1t down in Mexico & hundred mile from anywhere.
 1 Several other propositions are do ing legitimate development and til, | work, and the summer will probabI- witness considerable activity in th district, but nothing of consequence, can be recorded at the present writ ing - .-.'
 In the Swishiems the Heffern Devel opment people are making quite a sti with their combined mining and irri | gation scheme. Just what it is Hk, cannot be stated, the fact remain that they have enlisted interest il the commercial and financial com munity to a surprising degree. | A Sale Made.
