Parallel Ore Ledge Is Cut.

Word received by wire today from Rochester Is to the effect that the vein cut in the Wingfeld tunnel on the Weaver group of claims is ? feet 5 inches in thickness. Outside of pick ed specimens, according to the mes- sage received by MT. Wing6eld, the ore lcoks very poor and it is not thought that the main vein has been struck. The main vein is believed to be about 20 feet further. and the first vein struck is apparently parallel vein. Assays have not yet been re- ported upon.
 The Big Four tunnel, it is said, was started on ground of the Weaver group, ana the first strike reported from that property is said not to be over the line into the Big Four lease. One report is to the effect that the ore is apparently hardly of shipping grade. Another is that it runs 200$, mostly in silver. A conservative estimate of 75S ton is made in another quarter.
 Today the excitement in Rochester is said to be on the increase again ow- ing to the finding of ore at depth yes- terday. A report has been received that the ledge has opened up to seven feet.
 Both the hanging and foot wall are now defined in the Nenzel tunnel, showing an ore body of five feet.- Reno Gazette.

Syndicate Has Bought
 Mine For 15O, ,OOO$.

What constitutes the largest mining deal made in the Patagonia mining district for some time was the sale Of the Mammoth group of claims to an English syndidate headed by Clement Guion II, by R. R. Richardson. The deal for the purchase of the property has beed pending for some time and is said to have amounted to about 15O,- OOOS.
 The Mammoth group of claims, IA in number, are said to be one of the best prospects in the district. Several attempts to purchase them were on in the last year but none were closed.
 The claims are copper-silver proposition and while very little work has been done on the claims. Mr.. Guion will at once go to New York to consult with the members of his syn dlcate regarding their future plans, and will return in very short time to start a force of men on the develop ment work.
 The claims adJoin the famous Moc- tezuma mine owned by the McCor. micks and it is believed that the vein of the Mammoth is simply an exten sion of the Moctezuma vein, and the ore now taken from the Mammoth is compar atively the same as that taker from Moctezuma.-Tucson Citizen.

laswelI Strikes Gold in Burros.

A Silver City, N. M., dispatch says: Ben Laswell, an experienced miner and owner of group, of copper claims in the Burro mountains, is Just in from his claims, where he has been doing assessment work. In sinking a hole, he struck gold and the samples he brought in indicate the strike is rich one, and further investigation, he be- lieves, will show that it is very valu- able. Shafts on his copper claims are down several feet into sulphide copper ore.
 The opal company, operating near Bayard station, has completed it's as- sessment work and is now sinking a shalt and, as depth increases, the opal improves. It has struck the black opal, the first, so far as known here, eyer discovered in America. The mine promises to be an important ad- dition to the mining industry of Grant county. Its owners are Maj. Waddill and son, of Deming; Archibald Davis and Charles B. Spence, of Silver City. They have moved the camp to a more favorable location and greatly i'm proved it.
 The Phelps Dodge people are push ing work on the big tunnel at Tyrone and Leopold and working a big force at three different points. A great part of the tunnel will be some 300 or 400 feet under the surface of the ground. It is the biggest piece of mining work undertaken in Grant county.
