chise county has produced 733, 1867
pounds of copper. The Copper Queen
alone produces S,a00,0O0 pounds of blister
copper monthly,
The third and most recent period of
the Warren districts mining history
had its beginning with the entrance of
Michigan capital in 1900 under the name
of the Calumet and Arizona company.
At a depth of $50 feet exploration re-
vealed the great bodies of ore in the
Irish May shaft which set the mining
world agog and started an era of pros
pect work whose extent and colossal
operations have been unparalleled in
the history of copper mining. A score
of hoists soon marked the Mule range
with smoke banners. Within three
years the Bonanza Circle" had in
creased the number of Bisbee's mines
by half a dozen.
With the year 1900 Bisbee began to
grow by leaps and bounds. Later an

PROVES VALUE ON 1oo-FOOT
OF BROKEN HILLS PROPERTY

GOLDFIELD, New, Aug. lin a
telegram received by J. c. McCor-
mack from the Broken Hills company
lease at Lucky Boy, it was stated that
a new ore shoot in the west drift from
the 1OO-foot level had now been proved
for forty feet, and that from this part
of the ground it was expected it would
soon be possible to stope carload OF
ore each day The sender also stated
that the eleventh lot to be sent out
from the property was being loaded at
that time. The values are being main
tanned around 500 to the ton, and the
lease at this time is considered as equal
to the Hubbard in it's best days, and IS
looked upon as another bonanza.

came, and there were launched the
Shattuck- Arizona and Dunn-Arizona.
In the last year before the panic of 1907
the output of the Warren district
reached the enormous tota of $23,S52, ,639.
Even the Shattuck- Arizona, the newest
of this districts ore shippers, sent to
the smelters ore to the value of more
than $1,000,000.
When it is learned that during the
closing months of 1908, before all the
districts mines had resumed ore ship
ments. the Douglas smelters ran more
copper than during any months in the
past same period, conception may be
had of the incalculable future prosper
ity of this single district.
But the big producing mines at Bis
bee are not the only source OF Cochise
countys mineral wealth. From Tomb
stone, Courtland, Pearce, Johnson, Dos
Cabezas and Paradise is shipped addi-
tional tonnage to swell the great min
eral production.

OLDFIELD, Aug. 1.-Considerable
NT excitement was caused here by
VI the rumOr that in the Cherokee
lease of the Atlanta the ore had been
opened. For some time this property
has been regarded as one of the most
promising of that end of the district,
and fine showings have been noted
there on several different occasions.
Lately the work of drifting was
abandoned and sinking resumed, with
the result that when about seventeen
feet had been made and at depth of
about $50 feet, a change in the forma-
ton was noted, and the shots disclosed
likely looking rock which is expected
to lead to the ore shoot. Samples were
taken of the new stuff and assays
showed 10 per cent copper and a few
dollars in gold and silver.
Old timers and men who are sup
posed to know, who were shown the
character of the present formation de
clare it to be as fine a showing a could
possibly be without the ore itself, and
are confident that somewhere in the
vicinity of the present body the men
will break into the paystreak.
