Mines of the County

The Rainbow Mountain Mining con- pany is shipping car of high grade lead ore daily to the shelter. The orc is said to average about sos per ton in gold, silver and lead. The mine is in fine shape and the management is rushing the shipment of ores.
 w. H. Smith has just made trip around the north side of Wallapai mountain, and on the way located a number of claims Tn the Wallapai Springs gold camp. He looked over the big copper claims of Chris Vogt, in the Wauba Yuma district and re- ports them among the best prospects he has seen in the county, The veins are large, and wherever opened show excellent bodies of gold and copper ore.
 w. D. Grannis, who recently went to his mines in Dsluge Wash. near the old Diamond Joe property, IS re- ported to have several men at work and getting good results from the adit drift. The ore recently opened up is quite rich, carrying big values in gold and silver, while there is lead and copper showing Tn the ore. It is the intention of the management to keep the work on this property going with as large force of men as it is possible at this time to accommodate.
 S. c. Bagg, who has been operating the Cyclopic mines the past several years, returned from San Francisco a few days ago, having made deal by which he takes over the property from Robbins and Walker, the old owners. It is the intention of MT. Bagg, to make many improvements in the prop erty and put it on a better paying b,sis. The mine has always paid its way. but it IS possible to make it one of the great gold producers of the county. It IS more than probable that the property will be incorporated.
 Wilhelm and Harrison, who have been working on the Jupitor group of mines, in Secret Pass section, are in town and report that they have en- countered splendid showing of ore ia the property. Some of the ore runs as high as 60OS to the ton in gold and the average of the ore they have assorted for shipment is about 1908 The vein is widening out and the ore body becoming more solid, the values running quite regularly through the whole vein mass. The property is To- cated in one of the most accessible sec tions of the Pass.
 Recent work on the mines of the Horseshoe Mining company, at Cerbat. has shown that property to have some excellent ore. The new shaft was driven to depth of 80 feet and the ore has shown considerable improve ment all the way. The ore now fills the shaft and it is the belief that fur ther work will develop an excellent milling proposition. The mines are situated west of the town of Cerbat, on the low rolling foothills, in what is known as the goldbelt of that section. Frank O'Dea has had charge of the work of development.
 Some of the men living in the Mineral Park section report that the drill now at work on the ground held under option by the ilingman Copper company shows every evidence of the presence of copper in the holes, the drill being beautifully copper plated. Even the strands of the wire cable are plating up. Back of the drill bit the copper has lodged to such an extent that It has to be chipped out. The whole country is evidently copper bearing and the drill is sure to open up some great deposits. No sinking has been done on the turquoise de. posits, but it is we'll known that cop. per streaks have shown through the outcrop.
 Owing to breaking down of the loading machinery at the Tennessee mine the usual morning train to Chlo- ride has been suspended. It is under- stood that the shipment of ore from that property will be resumed within a day or two. The mine has been sending out 200 tons daily and that
