WHAT IS DOING
 IN PARADISE
 MINE COUNTRY
A Resume of the Paradise Dis trict Tells of Considerable Work and Much EnCour- agement in the Mines
CParadise Record.)

(Paradise Record.)
 The Turkey Creek company las Tuesday purchased from L. H. Scan land a one-half interest in the Nadi Queen and Piute mining claims whief they have been operating with sue cess for the past four or five weeks The selling price Is not made public
 During the past ten days severa feet of work has been done in ; north crosscut from the drift tunne in tho vicinity of the shaft. This ais closed some of the prettiest higi grade ore ever seen in the district It is believed that some of this ors will assay at least 40 per cent COD per. and 1t evidently carries some sill yer also.
 Two shifts are now employed driv ing the tunnel eastward towards the granite-lime contact. which is calcu lated to be about 100 feet distant Here-if the indications are interpret ed rightly by a competent mining mar recently on the ground-a deposit oi high grade ore is likely to be eEeoun tered.
 Claire.
 A 30-day option to buy has beer secured or this property. from the owner. B. W. Claire, by B. F. Cubbrn who represents Boston capital. Mir Coburn visited the property and wa. well pleased. and the optior is the result.
 Willie Rose.
 c. A. Kellner of Kellner and Wat son, prosperous merchants Of Iago Texas, arrived in Portal the first O the week and visited the Willie Rose As a result ne purchased the com pany stock heretofore held by Mir Smith, comprising a heavy interes in that property, and will, it is pre- sumed. take the 1atter's place as di rector, at the next meeting of the board.
 While the company regrets to lose Mir. Smith, another influential direc tor and stockholder has been obtain cd in Mir. Kellner. and there will bC no change in the progressive plana already outlined.
 Providence.
 S. s. Supiee Of Portal has takeT w. H. Smiths place as super.ntend ent of the Lewandowsi properties including the Providence (Rabbit.l On the Early Bird group, near Por tai. he has two men at work. sinking on 8 1O-foot shaft
 Taylor.
 Assessment work is now being ac complished on the Taylor group o copDer-gold claims near Wood can yon and Bitter creek.
 On most properties whereabouts tht principal values are in lead and sil yer. but in this case they are coppe and gold Evidently the lead-silye belt that extends in a northwestern direction from one terminus in th' Hilltop country has it's other terminus in the neighborhood of the King o Lead. Just beyond the King of Leat is situated the Taylor group. whicl is apparently in a cross belt of COP per that extends westward from thu Dunn Springs copper country. So ia no mineral shas been found betweeI Dunn Springs and Eagles Nest, bu we predict that there will be, result l ing in the closer tracing of the foot hill copper belt all the way from PoT tai and Paradise 10 the Taylor group and thence on to the Dos Cabezas cop per country.
 lt EOAu bNAN AaA VI hANh AAE af At group is situated and which seem to end on upper Wood canyon abov' the Taylor camp, parallels the cor per belt in a northwesterly direction to Dos Cabezas, widening out at thi end so as to include a great deal o territory to the east in the neighbor hood of Bowie. Much of this regioi between Dunn Springs and the Do tCabezas- Bowie section has never beer thoroughly prospected either for cop per or gold, but it Is nevertheless il the mineralized belt of the Chiricahu; mountains, and will eventually bt heard from.
 Columbia.
 Bernoudy and Wright have renew ed their bond on the Columbia, iron the owner, F. c. Baker. The assess ment work for this year has beel done in a new tunnel started abou 100 feet down the hill from the olt working. If continued until vertical iy under the old shaft, depth o about 100 feet would be obtained il the tunnel face. Work may be re sumed here later. and shipments o ore made, as the ore showings arr among the best 1t Is about a mil and a half from town, fin the shor lead-silver belt that begins with th' Lead=ille and has its ending at thu Texas.
 About a year ago Bernoudy an Wright made from this property I7-ton shipment netting s411.
 The bottom of a 30-foot yertica shaft was tapped by a tunnel. whicl was by that time about 60 feet long and a vertical depth of 30 feet is thu result after stoping. In places th' vein was four or five feet wide. giy ing considerable stoping ground which was taken advantage of.
 The ore belonging to the lead-silve | class and unusually deceptive. sort ing was a difficult matter, but tn results as above indicated tend u show that it was well accomplished This left on the dump several car loads of ore that might be treate' profitably in the district but whicl can not be shipped.
