Of Lieutenant Rucker, etc.

Mexico. TeleGraphic service was a scarce article, Automobiles. motor
 cycles and telephones were like the flying machines-thay dwelt mostly in imagination. Note the conditions that exist today. We take the follow ing rom the report of the Territorial Board of Equalization of August. 191A: Miles Of taxable railroads l,469.07 in | the territory. and almost within | fraction of 572 miles Of non-taXable: making in an about2,04 miles of rail. road. or 1. .S71 miles more a year ago ! than there was in 1879.
 | Taking all things into consideration, The amount of work done on the | claims at that time must have been fully up to the requirements Of the law. And in justice to the locators of the Halcro mine. who were the ! original owners or the Copper Queen. ! I think they were beaten out of their | property: and 1 am sorry to find that 1 kentnck and Eddleman were mixed 1 up in il. as had always thought well of them. 1t is but another example of mans duplieity.
 The records show that there were ewelye mining claims located in 1877, and in 1878 there were fourteen claims and two re-locations. This can be ac- counted for by reason of the work done by Req, Buck and Warren with the small shelter In 1879 there were but three notices recorded of claims located in Mule Gulch. There were others located, but on the outside, li)se at Solomon Springs. four miles cast, and at BanBiDgs. six miles west
 kentuck ard Eddlennan's Story.
 In the latter part of October. 1877. after George Warren had made three locations, viz; Mercey. Mohawk and MeKeon mines. In connection with some civilians aud army officers sta. tioned at Fort IIuaehuca. he made his way 10 Tucson He there met D. E. Req, a sort Of a lawyer. Warren in- dueed him 10 go to the Mule mount. aims. After taking the matter under consideration Req concluded he would go and see for himself. and after looking over the ground. on the 4th day Of December. 1877. Req. Warren and Chapin located the Rob mine, which became the Mammoth by re location. Req then returned to Tue son. and in April. 1878. he returned bringing Warner Buck, who thought he knew something about assaying and smelling ores. The consequence [ was that they erected the small smelt- ! CT referred to previously. It was oper- ated with a hand bellows to furnish the blast, After working the Hendricks mine, and trying to smelt the ore for some time they succeeded in making ] some copper mat. Buck had mining claims al other places and took no in I i'm hn in MstlA only the one-ninth in the Copper | Queen. which D. E. Req gave him. The mat was shipped to New York but gave no returns; so that ended their venture.
 When l arrived in Mule Gulch l i found the following claims were To- ] cated; l give the recording on each, | with the date of location, and the names of the locators. so that persons who wish to look at tue records al any time. will not have to look any length Of time until they find them.
