Mines of the County

Deputy Sheriff J. P. Gideon yester- day brought twenty thousand dollar bar of bullion from the Gold Road mill, the result of this weeks cleanup.
 An immense motor was hauled out to the Tom Reed mines yesterday. The machine weighed nearly sixteen tons, being one of the largest the com pany will have in use. This motor will go into the new mill and will handle the tube mill and some other machinery.
 William Ochs, of Salt Lake City, has closed a deal for the Gold Trail property of A. L. McKesson, situated in the Goldroad section, San Francisco district. Mir. Ochs is a prominent mining engineer and under his super vision the property will be developed. The consideration is not known, but is believed to be large.
 J. M. Vassar, superintendent of the Boundary Cone mines, arrived from Los Angeles last Wednesday and de- parted to the mines near Vivian the following morning. The company own ing the properties has mapped out large amount of work and the plans are being carried out as fast as pos sible.
 It is understood that the Tyro mine will soon be operated by eastern min ing men represented by W. Harvey Weed. Mir. Weed recently made an examination of the property and it met all the requirements of the in- vesting parties. The Tyro is one of she large properties of the Union Pass section.
 W.L. Clark, manager of the United Verde mine, at Jerome, arrived in Kingman Tuesday night and went out to Chloride the following day with Kean St. Charles to take look at the Midnight mine. It is understood that MT. Clark will send an engineer to make a thorough examination Of the property in the near future.
 The Keystone mine made its first car shipment of ore to the shelter last Saturday. The ore came from the new workings. and is said to be ex- tremely rich in gold and silver values. Following this initial shipment will follow many more from the mine and dumps and by the time the shaft reaches a new level the stopes will have been opened in the levels above and the property made regular ship per. At present all the ore that goes into the shipments is taken from the drifts, the dump ores being shipped by themselves on account of the freight rating. A short spur of track is being put in to accomodate a chute and warehouse for the accommodation of the company, near Mineral, the shipping point of that section. Later it is ex- pected that a spur will be continued to the mouth of Mineral Park wash and possibly to the mine.
 William and Frank O'Dea have been working on the Pilgrim group of mines, west of Chloride, and report has it that big body of rich gold ore has been cut at the 200 level. The shaft was sunk on the ore following the hanging wall and DO attention paid to the vein lying below the fault. The owners have run a crosscut through the faulted ground and on the footwall opened the best body of ore ever seen in the property. Specimens taken from the opening show it to be freely sprinkled with free gold. This strike gives the mines a value far above that placed on them by the own- CTS the past several years and makes it possible to work them at a big pro- fit. The properties are well situated for economic work and water can be had from nearby springs for milling purposes. It is now probable that the footwall streak will now be worked and that raises will connect it with the surface.
