Mines of the County
Judge and Mrs. h. F. Best came in
from the Treasure Hill this morning.

Work is progressing rapidly on the
Bellehower mine, south of Kingman,
the main shaft now being below seven
ty feet. The ore in the bottom of the
shaft is still of high grade and the
vein fills the shaft.
Kean St. Charles has gone to the
Midnight mine, where his brother and
nephew are at work driving along on
a rich streak of ore. They expect to
begin shipping from the property
within few weeks.
L. Hoffman returned few days ago
from Parker, where he made an ex-
animation of mining property. While
in the Riverside country he visited
the mines of the Riverside Mining
company and brought back with him
samples of ore. Some of it shows
excellent values in copper and is said
to run well in gold.
Prospectors who haye been banning
the gulches in the neighborhood of
Warm Springs, near Franconia, report
having found some good gold. Some
years ago gold was found in that sec
ton, but so fine that it was hard to
save. 1t is possible that these men
have discovered the source of the gold
and may have bonanza.
Co1,,v,,b,,e Doee mac - fror, tho
Stockton Hill section few days ago
after supplies. He reports that he has
discovered fine showing of ore on the
big vein where it crosses the divide at
the lower end of Xxi Basin. The ore
will run about 300 ounces silver, but
small streaks in the vein run into the
thousands of ounces to the ton.
]. L. Hampton, of Columbus, Ohio,
representing'shareh of the Gres t
West mines. has gone TO that property
to make an examination and probably
to start work on it. The Great West

Heved by many that with proper devel-
opment it would become a bullion pro-
Queer.
Work is still progressing on the
Gold Crown property, at Union Pass.
General manager E. II. Barton states
that the showing in these mines is
truly wonderful. every opening show
ing good grade of gold ore. A mil
ling plant will soon be in operation on
the property and it is expected that it
will pay its way during further deyel-
opment.
Henry Lang and wife, ]. D. Jordan
and Mike Coleman have organized the
White Bird mining company with a
capitalization of one million one dollar
shares. 1t is their intention to mine a
group of mines in the Union Pass sec
ton, upon which they recently dis
covered some very rich ore. The
veins are large, well defined and
should open up big with work.
W. n. Hall is getting things in
shape at his mines, the Woody group.
in Weaver district, for an active cam
paign. The property is expected to
pass into the hands of group of east
ern capitalists, who are to work it on
large scale. Mr.. Hall has opened
the mine to depth of 200 feet the
past several years and has large ton
mage of ore in sight.
Mr.. Ball, of the Needles Mining &
Smeltin company, came up from
Needles last night and reports that a
great amount of material is now on
the ground and that work on the en-
largement OF the plant was getting
we'll under way. When completed the
plant will be one of the best in the
west and capable of handling a great
tonnage of ore.
Lane c. Gillian, one of the big
mining men of the Pacific coast, was a
Kingman visitor a few days ago. Mr.
