| covers large area Of ground. Mr..
! Crawford and Mr. LennoX have thor
oughly prOspected and worked five
out Of IA claims. having washed
about 1000 feet apart, and found that
/ the dirt averaged $3.50 a yard. They

amount. and mining men who have
seen the property and tested the

from - cents yard to 50 a yard.

Globe Silver Belt.
II is the intention of the manage
ment shortly TO begin work on con-
tcmplated wagon road that will con-
meet the road over the Barney claims
with the main wagon road in Live
Oak canyon. This road. when COM
pleted. will give the workings OF the
Barney group access to the railway at
Mani On the south. thus obviating the
present necessity of hauling supplies
four miles from Warrior siding
through Black Warrior canyon.
The new road will place the proper
" within n two-mile haul of the rail-
road. and when the Live Oak spur of
the Arizona Eastern shall have been
completed the Barney workings Will
be less than a mile from railroad
transportation.
