CnrlS Larcen Is hlngman visitor this week, coming in from the Cyclopic mine, where he has been running a holster the past month or two.
 James Dundon has sold the Little Jimmie mine, in Union Basin to a Los Angeles gentleman, cash consider ation having been paid for the property. Work is soon to be commenced on the mine.
 T. B. Scott, of Burkeville, Virginia, arrived in Kingman last Thursday morning and departed the same day to Chloride, where he is heavily interested in mines, being the owner of the Lucky Boy and Brighter Days groups. It is probable that while at Chloride he will make arrangements for the starr ing up of work on the properties.
 H. M Bowen came in from Los An geles Wednesday, and made the third payment on the purchase price of the Bellehower mine to Rothe and Ole sOn. MT. Bowen expects to have work under way on the property by the first of October and will continue the pres ent shaft to a depth of several hundred feet. The mine shows good ore where yer opened.
 William O'Dea, owner of the Pilgrim group of mines, across the valley from Chloride, is in Kingman on business. He has just completed a crosscuJ of the Pilgrim vein at a depth of $50 feet and on the footwall encountered a fine body of ore, much of which shows free gold to the naked eye. Salt Lake people have just completed an examination of the mines and it is probable that sale will be made.
 P. H. Mclaughlin, general manager of the C. O. D. Mining Company, was in Kingman a few days this week on business. He reports that the work of sinking the main shaft on the mine below the 30l level is we'll under way and that the old works will be tapped and the mine unwatered as soon as possible. In the old works there are thousands of ton of marketable ore that vii be taken out and shipped to the shelter, while the old stopes contain many more thousands of tons of milling ore that will be cleaned up and shipped.
 The concrete work for the new unit that is to he installed at the big power plant in Kingman is about completed and the machinery will be put in place as soon as it arrives from the manu- factory. This new unit will double the power of the plant and enable the great CT distribution of electric power throughout the districts adjacent to Kingman. The transmission line will be extended 10 the Union Pass section. ] where power will be used by the Frisco 1 Miling and Power company in the or eration Of its mines and mill.
 Last Tuesday James Quinn, brought in bar of gold bullion from the Gold Road mill that weighed l29 l-2 pounds | and valued at lS.OOOS, the result of six | days run of the mill. The company continues to send out its regular weekly | bar of the yellow metal, and it is | claimed that there is now enough ore | in sight in the mine to continue the | shipments the next five years. The | new plant will soon be in operation. | which will give the mill nearly loo i tons more capacity daily and at the same time all the ores will be slimed | and filtered, instead of teaching the sands in tanks as heretofore.
 Al. G ,,nell this week took a wagon load of supplies from Kingman to the Se"ret Pass section, where Colorado people are sampling mining property owned by Holmes and Warner. MT. G0snell states that he saw a horning from one of the claims that gave big results in gold. It is through this pass that it proposed to build wagon road to the Ruth and other mining claims in the Silver Creek section. Only a small amount of work would be re- quired to make the road from Kingman to the mouth of Secret Pass fit for travel. but through the pass a road would have to be built up at a con- siderable expense. But were the road to be built it would at once come into general use by the people living to the northwest of Goldroad.
