Mines of the County

The Golden Gem mill is now run ming steadily on rich ore from the lowest level of the mine.
 A. w. Werner and A. F. Muter paid visit to the Last Chance and other mines on the north and east side of the Wallapai mountains this week. The gentlemen were much impressed with the mineral possibilities of that sec tion and Mr. Werner may conclude to invest.
 More miners are now at work in the Mineral Park section than at any time in the past twenty years. Different companies are operating the turquoise mines, while large force of men are at work on the metal mines in the Basin.
 A carload of ore is now ready to be shipped to the shelter from the Home Pastlme mine, Mineral Park. This carload Is sad to De one of the richest ever taken from the mine. The stopeo are proving up much better than ex- pected ana miners who have been in the mine are of the opinion that fully lOO,OOOS Will be taken from them.
 The teams now hauling between Kingman and Goldroad are unable to carry away all the freight that Is un- loaded at thls station for that section. Machinery Is arriving daily for the Tom Reed company and going in to the new mill at that property. Other companies are getting new machinery and within lhe next SIX months San Francisco district will witness a min- ing revival that Will lay all Nevaaa bOOms In the shade.
 Dan $. Richards and Walter c. Eel lows paid visit to the Red Gap mine last Monday in their automobile. The trip was made in record time. It is understood that Mir. Richards is to take up the Red Gap property and do large amount of development work this year. The mine has a splendid showing of ore in the developments that have already been made and it is believed that deep work will show it to be one of the best properties in the river section.
 J. D. Leedy, accompanied by his automobile driver, arrived in King man Wednesday night with large amount of samples from the Rattan Ruth mines, in San Francisco mining district. These samples are said to have given big returns. A force of men are at work on the Ruth, sinking shaft and have one of the finest show ings of ore ever opened up in that part of the district. Much free gold is vis- ible in the rock and the values are all high. It is the intention of the own- CTS of the property to sink to depth of several hundred feet at once.
 E. P. Lambert and daughter Eu- genia, arrived in Kingman last Tues day afternoon on their way to St. Louis, from their mines in the Gold Basin district, where they have been living the past eight months. Mr. Lambert has sunk to depth of 35 feet on one of the veins in his mining group and has opened up great body of gold ore. All the other veins in the group show nice grade of milling ore, but the large vein gives promise of being one of the richest properties in that section. Samples from it show free gold all through the rock. Mr. Lambert will remain in St. Louis dur ing the summer, but will return to the mines early in the fall. Machin- cry will be put on the mines and sink ing will be carried on to a depth of several hundred feet below the present level. Water for all purposes is to be had close to the properties.
 James F. Carter has gone to the Tom Reed section, where he will at once begin active development of his mines, which were recently merged into corporation composed of King man and Goldroad people. It is the general belief that he has one of the best properties in the Tom Reed sec tion and that a small amount of work will show the vein up to a great ad- vantage. The shaft now stands at a depth of 90 feet and has fine body of
