Mines of the County

George Beebe, Of Chloride, IS still taking out wonderfully rich ore from his mine near the Tennessee. The ore is a sulphide and desirable for smelling purposes.
 J. c. Lane is working few men on his mining property at Cerbat. Re gently he opened up nice showing of gold ore in the property and believes he has the makings of a rich producer.
 The Royal Flush mine, upon which Emerson Gee has a bond, is said to be turning out a fine grade of gold and silver ore. The vein will be sunk on as soon as machinery can be brought on the ground.
 The big sinking pump of the Hercu- les Mining company has arrived and will be hauled out to the mines the first of the week. As soon as the pump IS installed the york of sinking below the present level will be resumed.
 An application is being made for pat ent to a number of claims of J. B. Pat ten, on Bill Williams Fork. These claims are close to the properties of Charles Price and are said to have good prospects for developing into copper producers.
 Development is being carried on with a good sized force of men at the Tyro. It is possible that large machinery will have to be put in at this property before deep mining is inaugurated. The mines are showing up good ore bodies and the values appear to be very consistent.
 The mill of the Frisco Mines & Pow CT company is almost ready to go into com mission. A new set of rolls has been placed in the mill to take the first crushing from the rockbreakers and prepare it for the Hardinge mills It is expected that by the use of the rolls the capacity of the mill will be in- creased many fold.
 A. E. Vandercook, who at one time mined in this county, is now operating on O'Neill creek. Calaveras county, where he has an option on the Lertora mine. Some years ago Mir. Wander cook made tests of the Wall Street ores, at Eldorado Canyon, but was then unable to get a lease on the property.
 Ray P. Wheelock, who is superin- tending the development at the Enter prise mine, was in Kingman yester- day. The work of unwatering the property is progressing, although a large body of water has been encoun- tered. It is expected that as soon as the water is taken from the mine the work of sinking deeper will be under taken.
 Lambert R. Smith, who was man. ager of the Gro Plata mines a number of years ago, died in Denver. Colorado last Tuesday afternoon of fever con- tracted in South America. He was a member of the local lodge of Elks and well known to many of the people of the county. He leaves wife in Los Angeles and a mother in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.
 Frank Dudek, one of the owners of the big tungsten property at the old copper camp, east of Yucca, is in Kingman. Mir. Dudek has been devel- oping the property the past year and building wagon road to It from the old main travelled road. The ore of the mines is high grade, being of the hubnerite variety, one uf the most easily reduced ores of all the tung- states.
 Harold Baldwin, one of the best known passenger conductors on this division of the Santa Fe, died at Los Angeles hospital last Tuesday, death being due to tuberculosis of the stom- ach. Prior to his death Mir. Baldwin had been running between Needles and Los Angeles. He was a warm hearted fellow and made friends wher- ever he went. His death will cause sincere regret, not only among the railroad men, but among the business men and miners that knew him in life.
