Winchester, Arizona. April 19.-
 Special )-Mining matters in and
 about Winchester during tine past few
 days have become more interesting
 For the present the Glory Hole of
 which there has been SD much writ
 ten in the papers, has closed down
 and everything excepting the hole
 has been taken away. Neverthe
 less. this is the experience which
 every great and good mine has gone
 through. and this move on the part
 Of those who first bonded the prop
 erty has been a good advertisement
 and will result in a big boom in
 the camp. Everyone who has seen
 the fabulously rich Arizona North
 ern gold has fallen in love with it.
 The gold has spoken for itself and
 experienced mining men who know d
 mine when they see it and have
 studied the formation and the oc-
 currence of the gold have pronounced
 it great property. Simply because
 the men who got hold of this prop erty in it's embryonic stage threw it up because the original owners would not give an indefinite exten- sion in the time of payments, has not decreased the value of the prop erty nor has it lessened the good opinions of it which have already been formed.
 To add to the great faith which the public has in the property it can be stated on the best of authority that at the present time there are several good mining men waiting to take hold of it at even better figures and better terms than the first bond. l By the end of the present week l another outfit composed of men who | understand the mining | business and who know how to make | d big mine when they have the min | eral. expect to have hold of the | property and will go ahead with de- which will mean business. If present plans are carried out, a | large force of men will be put to work and. undoubtedly the public will be allowed to look over the property and see what there. is on it and study the formation and min eral occurrence, etc.
 Every big mine, and especially ev- cry big gold mine. as well as every successful mining camp has had its set backs. A new camp has its trials and tribulations. but when the real merit is present it always pulls through more gloriously with every reverse.
 Others Strikes Forging Ahead
 other good strikes are being made laily at Winchester. some of which now give promise of equaling, if not .xcelling the Glory Hole" The principal strike is the Mitchell strike which is getting richer with every 'oot of work Plenty of free visible gold is in sight and the pannings -un a long string of coarse gold. As says run into the thousands and here is a rush of people to this strike which is only a mile from The formation is a gold bearing quartz lying in the schist md the strong naturalization is at ,r near the diorite. Mitchell has opened up the ore in six places on wo claims and all the values on all ,ix openings run high.
 During the past two days all the ,round around the Mitchell claims IT the Anaconda properties has been aken up and the work is being done m ncdTlN every tldlili- l'NdN 9'lii' l wenty different holes lying along the ame ledge or strike is showing up l ish gold values. One or two good ales have been reported but no def nite information has as yet been -iven out. This new strike is causing . nore excitement than did the big . -lory hole, among the mining men. If course the Glory Hole in its early . lays had more picture gold than : ny other mine and anyone, no mat
