hills, south of Little Meadows. The ore is said to be very rich in gold and tAe streak appears to be continuous. Work is progressing on he vein and considerable ore is beng taken out. Robert Petty also has good showing Tn claim near the Alger strike.
 The trustees sale of interests in the George Washington mine, at Mineral Park, which was to have taken place today has been postponed until the 25th of November. It is understood that a settlement of the matter may be had before the sale day. The mines are said to have good showlngs of ore and it is to be hoped that the matter will be so untangled that work will again be resumed.
 J. C. Lane. M. G. Wagner and Harry Price went up to the Copper Giant mine last Sunday to take look over that property. They report that the mine continues to show up wonderfully on all the levels. A carload of ore a week is now going to the United Verde smelter, and as soon as arrangements have been perfected for the handling of the ores at the mine and a new sid ing is established at the railroad a car of ore daily will be sent out.
 The mill of the Arizona Southwest ern Copper company ha, been in con- mission the past week, but owing to the clogging of the launders some trouble is had. Last Tuesday the in- ventor of the system was taken to the mill and Is readjusting the launders and sizers to get the best result. J.. H. Hoffman, secretary of the company, was also expected at the mine from Los Angeles. With the mill working perfectly the company will soon be sending large output of high grade concentrates to the smelters.
 w. H. Smith came up from the Sig nal country the first of the week and brought report of the discovery of a rich quartz vein below that town. He brought with him some of the ore that was alive with gold. The vein is about four feet wide and streaks thru it are filled with gold. A Mexican made the find and Mr. Smith took an option on the property before pick had been struck in it. He believes he has a great thing and will at once be- gin the work of development. The mine iS only a short distance below Signal, in the Bill Williams range.
 T. B. Scott, owner of the Lucky Boy group of mines. at Chloride, ar rived from the east few days ago and has gone to the mines. The recent strike of ore in the drift on the Hot Tomale mine has aroused his interest and ne will make an exami- nation of the property. It is probable that as soon as the mine has been de, veloped to a considerable extent he will put in a milling plant to handle the ores. The ore body in the Hot Tomale is said to be large and the values quite high. With concen. trator capable of making a good saving of values this mine should become one of the large producers of the Chloride district
 M. Finnerty, of Denver, has beer out to the Frisco Gold mines, in the UnlOn Pass section. It is rumored ir the streets that Mir. Finnerty is look ing the property over as an invest mept, but on the other hand it is alsc rumored that the U. $. Smelling, Re tinng X Mining company has an option on the property and is to take it over Judging from the many rumors re garding the property we are inclined to the opinion that there will be some thing dolng with the property within the next few months. The presen company has been getting the prop erty in shape for large production, bu it lacks the large milling capacity, a well as water su pply to care for tn output of the mine. The property is wonderful one, the ore body in place being more than sixty feet thick Th ore body lies only few degrees iron horizontal, but it is thought to hay been broken over by some great cata clysm and that when it has been fol
