 Lieutenant Coykendall and Corporal Lyons, who left Prescott yesterday for the southern shooting ground, were very enthusiastic over the con- ing rifle contest, and both state that they will endeavor this year to SC cure Arizona a higher rating than made in any previous tournaments. The National Guard of Arizona is now at the top of Class c. At the national shoot last year their skill outelassed Wyoming, Kansas, Rhode Island, North Dakota, Mississippi, Utah, Virginia, South Carolina, Ne braska, Floridaf Montana, South Da- kota, New Mexico, Arkansas, Idaho, the United States Naval Academy and Louisiana.
 Lieutenant Coykendall also said that the public does not appreciate the disadvantages the Arizona Ma tional Guard labors under in this na- tional shooting event, mentioning the one single instance that in the se- lection of twenty-five men as the maximum strength of one state team, New York has over 14,000 members to draw on, while Arizona has less than 600. The same ratio will pre- vail with other states, and while net as much of a handicap as in the case of New York, it will range to nearly the same.
 The Arizona team last year made accordingly, a remarkable record, and from the constant practice in dulged in since then, it is believed that the Arizona riflemen will reach Class B easily at the coming shoot. + .:- !. 7. !. ..- + I. !. !. !. T. ..'

Recently a fine streak of ore was opened in the property, and it is proposed to sink a shaft to a depth below the change and develop the mine to a considerable extent. The vein is a large one and the indications are that great bodies of ore will be found at depth.
 Frank L. Mahoney came in from the Alpha mine a few days ago and reported that in driving the lower tunnel on the property ahead some good eopper-lead ore was encounter ed. MT. Manoney and Dan Hanly have taken a contract to drive the tunnel ahead 400 feet and raise to a connection with old shaft from the surface. It is expected that a great body of ore will be found on the lower tunnel level, as it is
