 We have been informed that Prophet S5 Smith have opened up a splendid body of lead ore on a vein near McCracken hill, which they have been operating since last winter. Shipments are now being made to the smelters from the property and good results are being obtained. The Me Cracken property has large bodies of lead ore throughout, but little effort has been made to operate the lead DOT tions of the veins.
 From Cedar comes report that a new corporation, the Wallapai Mining company, is soon to take over the mines and begin active development. A large force of men are to be em- ployed and the mines put in shape to ship ores to the smelters. The Cedar property is one of the best of the big silver propositions in Wallapai noun tains and only needs intelligent work to make them big shippers of iead-sil- yer ore Good roads now reach the camps in that section, which cheapens the shipment of ores to the railroad considerably.
 The Tom Reed plant is expected to be in commission by the first Of Octc- Der, practically all the machinery be- ing in place. This will be one of the finest and uptodate milling plants in the territory, and will have a capacity of about 160 tons. The addition to the mill is thirty stamps that will be oper- ated in connection with the original ten stamps and these have been sup plimented by a two hundred ton tube mill. The saving in the new mill will be as high as in the old, the same method to be used throughout. By tube milling and the use of the new Butters filters It is expected that but a few cents per ton will go into the tail ings.
 Walter NJ. Harrison came in from the Secret Pass section, a few days ago, and reports that he has completed the title work on a group of mines that give every indication of proving up big. The ore carries high values in silver as well as gold and the vein is about eighteen inches wide. Some of the samples brought to Kingman give more than 1OOs in gold and silver to the ton, while an average sample from six inches of the vein gave near ly 20OS to the ton. The property is close to the summit of Secret Pass and in the same neighborhood of that of Rothe and Olson. Mir. Harrison be- lieves that the Secret Pass section is one of the best in the range and that it is just now on the verge of a big boom.
 s. A. Tyler, of Mineral Park, was in Kingman this week getting things in shape to turn over to the Central Min ing company, a new incorporation, all of his mining interests in the Mineral Park section. These interests include the well known Gold Eagle group and other groups in that vicinity. The Cumpston group and groups of mines controlled by James Uncapher also go into the deal. This company is to be financed by well known Los Angeles people. The mines are all situated on the mountain to the east of Mineral Park and many of them have been pro- ducers of rich ores. As soon as the details have been worked out the com pany will have well larded treasury at its command with which to carry out the work mapped out by the engi- neers.
 J. A. Translator and Col. J. c. Swickard have discovered gold bearing veins in the buttes five miles north of Antares that give results of 33S gold to the ton, besides a percentage of lead. After locating the discovery they explored the surrounding country with the result that they found anoth- CT vein on which they found big mug get of galena. Below this galena they found high values in gold. The veins are not large, but the values appear to be disseminated throughout. The discoverers will at once do a large
