Harold R B,con has lately gwen a bond to eastern parties on the old Oceanic gold claim and also on two other groups, one being an extension of the Oceanic and the other in the same vicinity. Extensive development will be made on all these claims. The Oceanic gold claim has produced some gold bullion in past days, there being a twostamp mill on it. There was a little trouble in making a close saving of the gold, but it is now understood this has been overcome. The mining claims in this egion are most all gold bearing, carrying some silver. The ores are occasionally base and hard to treat.-Bisbee Review.

Biz Strike on the Empire.

Seven feet of high-g grade ore in the Walters shaft, with neither wall showing, is the latest sensational news from the Arizona Empire. Over three feet of the ore body runs in the neigh borhood of 300$ to the ton in gold. The balance of the orebody is mala. chite of copper averaging around 40 per cent in the red metal.
 This is undoubtedly the richest ore- body ever opened in this part of Ari- zona and developments are being watched with great interest as the work in the Walters shaft progresses from day to day. Over 1900 sacks of high.grade ore are now ready for ship ment and more is being taken out every shift
 General Manager c. w. Mitchell has predicted all along that he believ- ed the Arizona Empire was rich in gold, and that with development the property would show good ore bodies carrying pay values in the yellow metal. But it is evident that this property can also be classed as cop per mine, with the Eagle tunnel show ing four feet of black oxide of copper, besides the copper content in the ore of Gold Hill, ID part of which runs less than 6 par cent, in addition to it's gold values.
 It is sad that portions of the vein h the Walters aft runs so nigh in gold that it has beea deemed advisable by the management to station armed guards at the rich workings to protect the hundreds of sacks of high-grade on the dump awaiting shipment to Parker.-Parker Post.

Much Activity in Pima County.

There is mora activity at present in the Pima district than in any other in Pima county. The Twin Buttes peo- pie are working more than 30 men and opening up new bodies of ore in sever al claims. The shipments of ore con. tinue daily to the Pioneer Shelter. The company h,s just held it's annual stockholders meeting and is now in the proc ,s, of reorganization. More extensive and deeper work on the property is contemplated and a spirit of enthusiasm prevades the minds of the large stockholders.
 The Empire Zinc Company, which took over the old San Xavier claims, are broadening out in their work and adding new men all the time, now em ploying about D men. They have in the drifts run from the deep shaft bodies of high grade carbonate of zinc ores, which is being extracted and piled on the dump. It is said the ore will be shipped to their smelIer at Canon City, Colorado. Whether con- centrating machinery will be placed on the property is yet to be deter. mined.
 The Olive Mines company, repre- sented by the Tufts people of New York, are pushing their work of erect ing their concentrator and are doing development work on several bonded claims at the same time, now employ ing about 40 men. They are down some 260 feet on one claill and the showing of silver-lead ore is quite pleasing to them. It is their belief that development work in this old Olive Camp will soon show up some good big ore producing claims.-Bis- bee Review.
