MT. ELLIOTT MILL
 STRTS UP NEXT MONDAY
CFrom Fridays Daily)


 With several permanent improve ments finished, a number of others about to be started, and more exten- sive plant of development under con sideration. the management of the Mount Elliott Consolidated Mines Company will resume operation of its mill Monday, placing it's property again in the list of gold producers of the county.
 Retimbering of the shaft of the Dividend mine with Oregon pine is finished, an ore bin of 100 tons capac- ity has been erected at the mill, an other ore bin of similar size has been erected at the hoist and all prepara- tions are made to start the plant on ores of the Dividend mine, of which there is a large tonnage blocked out and ready for toping.
 Development of the Galena mine is being pushed with satisfactory ore showings in the headings. The retim- bering of the main shaft in the Iii eonderoga mine will be commenced soon. This property has an enviable reputation for high grade ores, the average plate returns during its for mer operation being S25 to the ton.
 F. E. Biles, general manager of the company, stated yesterday that sink ing will soon be started in the main working shaft of the Dividend mine, the intention being to push develop ment on all three properties to greater depths this year.
 He expects to have double the force now employed at work next month and intends to make further increases from time to time as development warrants.
 The eompany's holdings are located in the Big Bug district, adjoining the Jessie and Lelan groups. one mile west of the Gladstone mine, where eighty miners are now employed and from which steady shipments of ore are being made to the Fl Paso smelters.

 William F. Burgett was born in Cheyenne, Wyoming, Sept. g, 1886. Surviving is his father, mother, two brothers. Charles and Frank Burgett, and two sisters. Mrs Robert Hartin and Miss Anna Burgett, all residing here except his father, who is now hur- rving home from Oklahoma. The fatn- CT. F. l.. Burgett, ST., is expected here Sunday or Monday. The remains will be held awaiting interment until his arrival. An uncle, residing in Los Angeles, is expected here today to at tend the funeral and console the grief stricken mother, who has been pros trated since learning of the tragic end of her son.
 No death in recent months has shocked the community as did that of William l.. Burgett. He was popular not only in railroad circles but among all classes of the community. His work on the diamond with the local base ball hines, here and in Phoenix and Tucson, gained for him a territorial reputation. Residents of Phoenix, Ash Fork, and other places where he was known nave already signiied their intention of attending his funeral to pay their last respects.
 Filled with life's ambitions and hopes and in the best of health, he left his home here Wednesday evening at 5:30 o'clock to start on his run to Ash Fork. He kissed his mother and sister Anna, bidding them goodbye as usual, little thinking that in less than three hours the engine and ca boose of his train would bear his dead body home. At the depot he greeted his fellow trainment in his usual buoy ant spirits With T. W. Sprott, con duetor, and Brakeman Stewart of the soutnbound passenger train passed at Jerome Junction he exchanged pleas ant greetings as their train passed south only few moments before he was fatally crushed by the wheels of his train before they were yet out of sight.
 The crew of the passenger train, on arriving here, was shocked with the news of the acident. They remained at the depot until the arrival of the special bearing his remains, only to be still further shocked at the news of his death on the way.
 The scene of the accident is eonsid- cred as a dangerous place by men in the train service. It is generally ad- mitted that the space between the tracks when ears are standing on the narrow guage is too small for man to pass between the cars.
 Funeral arrangements will be an nOunced later.

GOSSIP GIVES GOOD WORD
 OF PLUMED KNIGHT

I TUCSON, Feb. S.-As the Plumed
 Knight mine is liable to be one of the
 dominating copper properties. it is
 well that more should be known of it.
 The group consists of 14 claims located
 in a rectangular form covering 420O feet, aggregating 2sO acres. It is sit uated in the San Xavier mining dis triet about IS miles southwest of Tue son, and five miles from the terminus of the Twin Buttes railroad. It is en- tirely surrounded by ore producing properties.
 Development consists of shafts, in elines and drifts equally about 1O9O linear feet, and has produced about 1000 tons of mercnAntable shipping ore. It has a vertical shaft , by : feet, 100 feet deep, in the center of the Plumed Knight claim. At depth of 40 feet drift has been run parallel with the vein for distance of 40 feet and from which ore was taken that gave a net return of $497.26. At the 69 foot level drifts were run both east and west parallel with the vein, which at this point is 30 feet wide and from which 800 tons of unassorted ore was taken that gave an average of f per cent copper and an ounce of silver to the ton.
 At the 100 foot level the ore vein is 300 feet wide, is solid and compact. A crosscut of the vein, from average ore taken from about the center of the ledge, shows value of 7.6 copper and SIS ounces in silver. An assay made from selected ore gave 26.6 per cent copper and 176.3 ounces silver. About s feet of ore lying next to the hang ing wall runs per cent copper and 6 ounces silver. A ear load of ore from this erosscut has been sampled and is now ready for shipment to the shelter. Samples similar to this car load were sent to Douglas for analysis and is shown to contain 1 oz. silver, "A per cent copper, insola 35.s- per cent, iron 27.7, lime 1S.7 per cent. Forty tons of this ore is now on the platform ready for shipment and 700 tons of second class ore is now piled on the dumps.
 The mine equipment consists of a new first class horse power Western gas engine and hoist, with 300 feet of cable, a first class gallows from 24 feet high, and a fine engine house en- closed entirely with corrugated iron, tents, wagons, eorrals and stables, ore buckets and mining tools of all kinds. Everything about the place is in first class condition for work.
 At half mile from the main work ing shaft, shaft is being sunk on the vein. At a depth of 5 feet ore was struck. Such was the word sent | in Saturday. This shows the enor- nous extent of the ore bodies in the group.

MoHAVE COUNTY AGREES TO
 NEW WESTERN BOUNDARY
(From Fridays Daily.)


 With the supervisors of the cOun- , ties of Yuma and Maricopa in dispute over a proposed boundary survey of the line of their counties and the su- pervisors of this county ready to CO., operate with the Maricopa board in establishing the line of Yavapai and Maricopa counties by a joint official survey, it appears that the boundary dispute of the last two years between this county and MOhave is definitely settled.
 Clerk Peter of the local board re- eeived the following official communi- cation from the MOhave board yester- day, which definitely settles the boun- dary as surveyed by County Surveyors Latimer and MeCardell last year. The official document from the Mohave board reads, "At a special meeting of the board of supervisors of Mohave county, held February l, 1909, the boundary line survey of Mohave and Yavapai counties established by the 1908 survey of Surveyors Latimer and McCardell from the point established by the Freel and Latimer survey of 1908 was passed and accepted by the board"
 k IL is signed by the chairman and clerk of the board and attested by the seal of the Mohave supervisors.
 In the Latimer and MeCardell sur vey, this county gained approximately 1000 feet on the north end and lost about three and a half miles in the south end where this county touches Yuma and Marieopa counties.
 Yuma county, recognizing the ad- vantages to be gained by joint sur vey of it's eastern boundary, is ready to cooperate with the Maricopa board in a joint survey. The Marieopa board has refused the offer, believing that it county is liable to lose a strip of land almost four miles wide, which "Ail SANN ab ANdol hNN oA bAO Southern Pacific railroad to Yuma be- sides other property valuable to it from an assessing and tax collecting standpoint.
 The Maricopa county board also re- fused to cooperate with the Yavapai board for a joint survey of the south ern boundary of this county, as it is hinted by surveyors and others famil- far with the present boundary of these counties that large number of pat ented mines and other property now claimed by Marieopa will be shown in this county. Some go so far as to state that the town of Wiekenburg, fast growing into one of the important mining eenters of northern Arizona, is really located in Yavapai county.
 It is possible that Marieopa county will be compelled by the courts to join in official surveys of its boundaries with this and Yuma counties before the close of the present year.
