thy that prevailed in the copper busi ness at financial centers last week Indeed. local mining affairs have re ceivod a fresh impetus from the re neWal of travel into Globe, which wa interrupted during the holidays, ant nearly every train of late has brought in mining een Ia quest of copper prop critics. or who were already interest ed here. The operating companies have in several instances added tG their forces and Increased develop ment work. The news from the mines in this district has been uniformly good. The opening of a large sul phide ore body between the 500 and zoo foot levels in the Gray mine oi the Old Dominion company was one of the most important developments since the neu year opened. 1t IS Q .ood grade of sutphide. the high per cenage of sulphur making Il desirable
 A later development, of perhaps greater importance to the Old nomin- ion. is the strike of very rich sul- phidc in the west drift. on the 14th level. of the Old Dominion mine, said to have been made few days ago. An thrush of water caused temporary suspension Of work in the drift. but we understand the flow has dimin- ished perceptibly. This strike was made in the extreme western work ines in the region ot Final creek. Al the smelter every thing is running smoothly ard barring accidents. the production cf copper for the month should exceed 3.50o,e00 pounds. The perfect weather for the past several weeks has been q great aid to aH sur face work ana the handling oi sup plies. of which the receipts for the Old Dominion have been large.
 A Successful Fiotation-
 The Live Oak Geiation by MesSrs. Hovland and Smith and their asso- ciates. auncanced here on Monday awakened Ertat interest. and there has been q strong demand for the stock. large amount of it. purchas- od at DuIrti and Calumet having been absorbed here, which caused the price to advance from g. che first calb 10 s4e2 1-s. Live Oak is regarded as one of the most valuable properties in the Miami section of the Globe district. having wonderful surface slowing and q record of having pro duced half million dollars, or more. from shallow workings. Recent work at 2Gp feet in depth. has opened thir- " feet of slilpnide ore going nearly 2 3-4 per cent copper. and it is confi- dCnuy expected that a deposit of chal- cOcite will be developed similar to that opened in the Miami mine, ad- jaceut to it. The work of restoring an old tunnel on the Live Oak, run at Q comparatively shallow depth more than ten years ago. has been started by Manager M. k. Mccarthy. This tunnel was run in sulphide ore for nearly two hundred feet and the man. aEement will reopen and drive it farth- CT to determine the width of the sul- phide deposit at that point. Some Of the ore in the old dump assays as high as per cent copper. Systemat' ic development of the Live Oak will be under way by February l.
 Arizon a-Michigan Shaft Started.
 The Arizona Michigan Mining com any has made an excellent start sink ing a working shaft on the Telfare claim. The shaft has three comp -rt- ments and is 5X16 in the clear. Two shifts are employed and the third will be added within q few days. Mine Foreman N. A. Nelson is superintend- ing the work. General Manager $. W. Clavson has been in Los Angeles for a week. He will return to Globe next Thursday. and at Bowie he, will meet Captain James Chynoweth, president of the Arizona Michigan company, who is coming here for visit. and while here will probably arrange for the pur- chase of machinery for the equipment of the shaft.
 4 party Of directors of the Superior & Globe is expected here from Mich igan soon, when work will be active ly started on the property. Henry V. Shell was appointed general manager of the Superior & Globe. but owing to the death of MT. Shells father re gently. he has not yer assumed the nosition The Superior & Globe has a very promising property, carrying the Big Johnn O'DouEnerty-Yuma ledge, and local mining men believe mine will be opened on Superior < Globe ground
 Arizona Commercials Good Strike.
 Superintendent IT. A. Collin of the Arizona Comemrciai reports an iul- portant strike of ore made in the west drift on tho 5sa foot level of the old Black Hawk workings. AS previous Iy stated by the Silver Belt, this drift was run 25e feet west from the Kinze for the greater part of the distance iR good ore. In preparation for sinking and raising al the end of this drift. a crosScut was run toward the hang ing wall. which opened up fifteen feet of fine hematite and copper carbon ate ore. The floor of the drift is in ore for it's entire length of 250 feet. and now that the width of the ore body has been shown to be twelve feet at the west end e the drift. which
