 Sinking on the Iowa group has de- veloped good body of water, while at the same time it has developed a shaft full of ore of an exceptionally high grade. Men familiar with the property report that it is one of the big things of San Francisco district.
 Lovin x Withers company has the contract to haul three cars of machin- cry from Antares to the mines of the Nevada Arizona gold mines company. at Music Mountain.

 An excellent strike of gold, silver and copper was made this week in the Grant & McGeary Wash section of the Wallapal mountains. We are unable to learn the name of the lucky dis coverer. The veins have been work. ed on the past year and it was while prosecuting development on the prop erty that the rich ore was found. The mines are situated some little distance south of the Enterprise.
 We understand that a numbe of the stockholders of the Enterprise mine will be in Kingman within few days to look after settlement of it's affairs and at which time a course of action looking to the future development of the mines will be discussed. The Enterprise group has great possibili- ties, but so far all work has been done on the mine where the least possibility exists. At many other points on the veins is to be found excellent values and promising prospect for something good should the work be carried on to depth below the water level. The property at present is Tn excellent hands and It is to be hoped that finan. ces will be arranged and the general manager given full authority to map out campaign of development.
 M. A. Burke and associates have forty-ton car of zinc for shipment from the de la Fountaine mine, and will soon have the same tonnage car of lead ready to send out. The zinc will run about fifty per cent, while the samples taken of the lead have give n results of nearly seventy per cent The men have been working there about month. The mine is capable of making big output under ordinary conditions, but as no stopes have been opened the miners have to take the ore from drifts anI winzes. With the opening of the stopes large tonnage of high grade zinc and lead ores could be shipped to market. The same con- pany is the owner of the Cupel, which in days gone by shipped great ton mage of exceptionally high grade sil- yer ore. The mine is now filled with water, but is well equipped and could unwater the property in few weeks.
 A rumor is ahoat in Kingman that the Bi-Metal mines, three miles south of kingman, are to be taken over by big corporation and that great plant is to be erected on it. Heretofore the only difficulty in the way of large plant is lack of water. but the writer is of the impression that water in sui ficient quantity may be had by sinking to depth on the mines. Geological con- ditions at the mines indicate that the deposition of mineral and matter was
