Mines of the County

Pass, near the Frisco Mines & Power Co.'S property, is driving a crosscui tunnel to cut large ore shoot found on the surface of the White Bird vein
 The big electric hoist for the Rutt mine was loaded on one of the wagon: of the Lovin & Withers Company yesterday and started on its way tC the mine, where everythieg has been prepared for its installation. The holster is one of the finest ever brought to the county and is said to have all the latest improvements.
 A. P. Anderson, field engineer oi United States M s. & R. company. ar. rived in Kingman last night and today left for the mines of the Needles Min. ing & Smelling company, in company of D. R. Muir, where he will look the properties over. The company is pro- ducing largely at all the mines, the shipments of ore going to the shelter of the company at Needles.
 T. R. Garnier has a carload of very rich lead ore ready for shipment to the smelter from the St. Louis mine, at Cerbat. The ore from this mine usu- ally runs about 65 per cent and carries good values in gold and silver. The work of opening up the ore shoot is going on daily and it is expected that the ore body will be developed to such an extent that regular shipments will soon be made.
 Daniel Bosque, who has been in Los Angeles the past ten days attending to personal matters, returned to King man Wednesday last and departed to the Goldroad. Mir. Bosque is rated as one of the best cyanide experts in the United States and has had charge of the Gold Road company's mill the past two years. He has made great sue cess in the extraction of the yellow metal from the ores of the Gold Road mine.
 The mill of the Frisco Mines and Power company is said to be running smoothly and doing excellent work. With the new engines in use it is said that the power cost is not over 5.5OS per month, an exceptionally cheap power. So far no cleanup has been made, but the tailirg tests show good saving of values. Tomorrow the MIN FER editor and several other gentlemen will visit the mill and take a look through the Gold Grown mines.
 J. M. Vassar, superintendent of the Boundary Cone Mining company, was a Kingman visitor this week. He re- ports that the work of exploiting the mines of the company, near the Tom Reed, is we'll under way. Much of the work is now being done op the POO level, where there is a fine showing of ore. It is expected to sink the shaft to depth of 800 feet as soon as levels have been run through a certain part of the ore shoot on the present levsl. The shaft showed fine ore from the surface to the POO level.
 George w. Gibson, president of the Wallapai Precious Metals company, of Denver, is here looking after the in- terests of his corporation. Mir Gibson is also associated with S. A. Giles, of Colorado Springs, in the J. F. T. and other groups in IXL canyon, and the molybdenite-copper mines in Copper Canyon, Cedar district. On all of these mines turces of men are at work. At the Studley-SwOpe mines, IXL basin, the work is being carried on by a force of men and soon a hoisting plant will be put on and the mines thorough ly exploited. Four men are driving the adit drift on the Whale mining claim, in Copper Canyon, and the re- port has it that a fine showing of ore has been made.
 The Frisco Mines and Power com pany is clearing out roadway from McConnico northwest to a connection with the old Union Pass road. over which it is intended to do the hauling from Kingman to the mines. The bad condition of Coyote Hill, over which the hauling is now done, necessitates this move. While the distance by way of McConnico is greater by several miles it is thought that a big saving will be made in wear and tear of ma chine and fuel used. The road when completed will have low grade and the road will be smooth, allowing good
