Considerable development work was

MINE AT ESCONDID0
WORKS NINE HOURS
DAILY WITH RESULTS

ESCONDIDO, Jan. 17.-Steadily and
effectively the five-stamp mill of the
Cleveland-PacificM Mining company, less
than three miles east of the city, is
pounding away at the ore which is
being taken from the ground in inn
portant development work. 1t is the
only mine in this section of the county
which is daily producing the real
stuff" For a number Of weeks the mill
was in operation night and day. AT
present it is running nine hours per
day and the results are satisfactory
to the management.
More than 1000 feet of development
work has been done since the mine was
reopened. Today ten or a dozen men
are at work in the mill and the mine.
The north drift from the Grace shaft
has now reached a length of 300 feet,
and the south drift $50 feet. Assistant
Manager Bieber, who is in charge of
the plant during the absence of Man.
ager w. F. Speith in the east, when
asked concerning the reports, admitted
that the miners were opening up some
very good ore, and that the prospects
were excellent.
The Grace shaft, which was put
down to a depth of 100 feet several
months ago, is soon to be equipped
with pumps, when the sinking will be
continued far below the water line.
L. Howe and J. l.. Mooney are sink
ing vertical shaft nearly opposite the
house, south of the mill, and have faith
that rich ore will be struck in due
time.

COMPANY ORGANIZES
TO WORK LIVE OAK
GROUP NEAR GLOBE

GLOBE, Jan. 1.-THE Live Oak De-
Velopment company is the name of the
latest local mining fotation. The COM
pany is now being organized to take
over the option held by H. B. Hovland
on the Live Oak group of claims, stu
ated about six miles west of Globe.
The capitalization will be $4,000 shares
at $40 par, $4,000 shares to be issued
Immediately at So call, and So per share
remaining due and subject to call. The
stock is not offered for public subscrip-
ton through brokers.
The Live Oak group of claims which
the new company is to develop is gen
orally regarded as one of the very best
copper properties in the Miami section.
1t has a remarkable surface showing
of copper and which continues as far
as developed in depth. There has been
mined from shallow workings on the
Live Oak upwards of half a million
dollars worth of copper. The deepest
shaft, up to the time H. B. Hovland
secured an option on the property early
in December, was 100 feet.

GOLDFIELD, Jan. 17.-Twelve feet
of ore that will ship at from 500 to
5000 ton as it is broken in the stope
is the marvellous showing in the Con-
solidated Red Top lease, controlled by
John Donnellan and company, on the
Red Top claim of the Goldfield Consol-
idated estate. The ore is spreading in
every direction with each round of holes
up, down and sideways, and it is be-
lieved that bonanza has been dis
closed of such startling proportions
that it will rank high among the great
est of those which have made Gold
field famous.
From a pinched up streak a few
days ago the ore has widened like a
fan and beyond the most eXtravagant
expectations which have been enter
tanned by reason of the splendid
promise during recent development of
the lease. This is a continuation of the
ore lenses which have been noted dur
ing the past two or three weeks, but
beside which the disclosures of the
past pale into insignificance. 1t lies be-
tween the 225 and 300 foot levels, and
is being developed in a southerly direc-
ton toward the Consolidated COM
pany's shaft on the Red Top.
The ore was first encountered on the
300-foot level. A stope was started, but
when it had got we'll under way the
lease narrowed to a small streak; then
it opened again as the raise was con-
tinued, and then pinched again, but
not without having shown the presence
Of picture ore.

n HOENIX, Jan. 17.-Claims known
formerly as the old Angel mine in
II the Vulture district have been sold
by a. A. Pratt, at one time superinten-
dent of the property, to P. M. Jewett
for a consideration of $4,000. The sale
recalls much interesting history in con-
nection with this property which was
considered a bonanza proposition and
has quite history.
The Angel was located originally by
Angel ContreraS of Wickenburg and
later taken over by George Sanders of
New York and Henry Wickenburg. A
New York company incorporated it and
sold over 100000 worth of stock and it
is said went to Canada. The property
was in litigation for a number of years,
and finally judgment. was given Mr..
Pratt for salary, and he took the prop
erty over on foreclosure proceeding.
Lavish expenditures were made on
the Angel in it's palmy days of activity.
A townsite was laid out, "a road four
teen miles long built from Wickenburg,
fine offices put up, a hotel building
erected and considerable money spent
in development machinery, hoists, en-
gines, etc. 1t is related that the COM
pany officers had Brussels carpets on
the floor and lived like princes. The
stockholders became anxious and came
west in special. They seemed to
think that more had been spent on the
ground than under ground, and the
property was shut down, and a fore

Miners Find Trucks of Mining Cars
in Old Shaft of Clara Consolidated

.HRUCKS of three mining cars of
German pattern are the peculiar
- find made last week in the bottom
of an old 200-foot shaft in one of the
mines owned by the Clara Consolidated
Mining and Milling company at Swan
sea, Ariz. Who placed the trucks there
is a question that cannot be answered
by even the pioneers of the once forbid
den region.
1t is known that shipments of rich
copper ore were made from that part of
the Bill Williams Fork range more than
a quarter of a century ago. The ore
was packed to the Colorado river,
floated down the river on bargeS to. the
Gulf of California, where it was loaded
on steamer and transported to Swan
sea- Wales, for treatment.
It is believed that the mine now
under development by the Clara Con-
solidated company was one of a num-
Der that yielded rich treasure to the
hardy pioneers who penetrated that re-
gion in search of the precious metals.
The shaft in which the trucks were
found is cleaned out to a depth of 200
feet How many feet it goes down is
not known. At the 200-foot level a
drift was found extending in a distance
of 100 feet, with indications of other
drifts and openings hidden in the
ground, which is caved in many places.
The shaft and drift are in ore similar
in character to the ore deposits being
developed in the other two shafts now
being sunk.
The incline shaft is now down 1S5

next point, lying about fifteen miles al

Ida is a copper country and has vast

story goes. the road would run norther-

gold' silver, and lead ores are in
abundance. This would involve a total

that an extension will be run west of
