PRESIDENT KING IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE IN sIssEE TODAY WITH FRIENDS.

Presiwcnt King. of the Empire State mine is expected to arrive in B.s- bee today and with his arrival work will be delayed only few days in starting up at the company property west of this city.
 Ample funds for prosecution of the extensive plans Of development held by the company heads, have been secured and there need be no fear Cf delay on that account. The work to be undertaken is that of driving he main tunnel of the property 300 feet farther into the hill at which point i: is expected to catch the main ccntact
 The tunnel has passed thrAgh ! large body of ore, said to Average about sS to the ton in cope and sil- yer and it is the plan of tb4 manage ment to later install reduction plant near at hand. It is expected that building of this plant vii be started during the spring. a concen- trator capable of handling 800 tons day being contemplated.
 The direction of operations will bs under supervision of O. P. Zane, who will occupy the position of consult ing engineer for the company.

ARIZONA INVESTMENTS RANK HIGH
 IN EASTERN MONEY CENTERS

Prescott-Hon. T. c. Norris of the firm of Norris, Ross & Smith, has re- turned to the city after two months absence on legal and mining business in the eastern cities. While away MT. Norris visited New York, Boston, Bal timore. Washington and other eitieS and found a most promising favor able sentiment in regard to Arizona affairs
 It appears from Mr. Norris observa- tions that the opinion is general throughout the east, that Arizona i1- vestments are also looked on with growing favor. Mir Norris, in speak ing of his trip and Of the conditions in the east, said:
 "ATizona's prospects are brighter il the east than ever before; more sub stantial homeseekers and investors have their attention directed to Art zona now than at any period in the history of the territory
 Tt is the general opinion among eastern business and professional men that Arizona will be admitted to state hood at this session Of Congress and that fact alone will attract many peo- pie.
 Arizona copper mining proposi- tions naturally rank high in the opin-

ion of prominent mining operators in the east, but fact that is very pleas ing to note is that gold mining prop ositions in Arizona are being much more favoraGy considered than in the past.
 The reason for this improved standing in gold mining propositions is due to the fact that a more intelli- gent consideration is being taken in gold mines than in the past. There are fewer wild cat schemes being floated and more substantial class of mining men becoming interested than in the past. Nothing has done more to b-.ns about this condition than the interest and confidence shown in Arizona by such men as John Hays Hammond, who has made investments in the territory, and who has taken most favorable reports back to his friends and associates in the east. Mr. Hammond is justly regarded as one of the most prominent mining engin- eers in the world, and his lead has been followed wherever he has placed an investment
 Taking all things into considera- ton. believe that Arizona is at the threshold of the most prosperous per iOd in it's history"

 According to the present plans one hole will be sunk from the shaft bot tom which is down a little more shgn 800 feet while three others will be sunk from drifts on the 800 level at some distance from the shaft. Each hole vii be sunk one thousand feet.
 The diamond drilling operations will be watched with great interest by mining men, both of that vicinity and in the Warren district owinS 10 the fact that it should prove beyond doubt the naturalization of that sec ton and something of it's extent

 The Bonanza Belt, or the old Pea body mine, is widely known as one of the properties that has returned large profits to it's owners in the past, having, it is said, shipped between s1,GoO0o0 and g eco 900 worth of cop per ere.
