Mines of the County


 Gold Road Mines company, Monday last brought in 2O,O0Jf oar of bullion, the weekly product of the mill.
 Last Thursday Manuel Ruiz came up from the Caemehuevis mountains, where he has been at work on his min- ing property. He reports that the claims are developing up well and that he expects to make a shipping proposition out of it.
 J. w. Johnson, owner of valuable property in the Brownsville country, is in Kingman. He reports that he and partner Walter DeLier, have opened great showing of copper ore in their property. The men have also bonded a group of mines to the Clark people. These claims surround the Copper Giant and have big outcrops of mineral.
 Thomas B. Scott, owner of the Lucky Boy group of mines, who has been looking over the property, passed thru Kingman on his way home last Satur. day night. He IS well pleased with the development of the Hot Tomale vein and believes that he will even- tually open up a good paying mine. The work on the Brighter Days claim has not yet reached the ore body, but the indications are that the mine will develop into as big a property as the Lucky Boy.
 On the 300 level of the Copper Giant eight feet of ore is showing that will give excellent value in copper. From the drift a crosscut is now being run to cut what is known as the "big vein" The company is getting things in shape to begin the sinking below the present level and show the vein up at depth. Just as soon as the big vein is opened up the work of sinking will be commenced. Shipments are being made to the smelter at Jerome.
 Barney Perkins and Philip Smith are at the New YoJk claims, on Stock ton Hill, where they will do the an- nual assessment work. These claims lie above the de la Fountain mine and carry good values in gold. silver and copper. The tunnel is on the vein over 300 feet and shaft is down near ly 100 feet, besides many openings. The property produced considerable ore during the early days of the camp and now has good showing of fairly good ore.
 Mir. Overstrom, inventor of the con- centrating table of that name, went out to Copperville last Tuesday to get the flanders and tables in working order. It appears that some trouble has been experienced in the operation of these machines and as Mir. Over strom understands them better than any other man he will have to regu. late them to do the work required ne tulll IS oue UT luc llooo uP oo uaIe plants in the country and with little remodeling should do all the work o dressing the ore up for shipment tc the smelter. The mine is capable o making great outrut.
 J. H. Hoffman, who has been look ing after affairs at the mines of Cop perville, departed last Tuesday nigh to Denver, where he will attend tt business for the company. He is san guine of great success for the Arizoni Southwestern Copper company, an' with the big ore bodies of that prop erty ought to have It on pay basi within short time. The main shaf of the property should be sunk to tn, 9th level, which would give grea backs of ore and possibly produc, values that would stand shipment t the shelter without the necessity o milling.
 Last Tuesday Robert c. Jacobson, well known civil engineer, Anson H Smith, J. w. Fettes and chautfe Johnson went out to Copperville b auto and hiEed over the hills to Cop per Canyon, where they looked ove the mines of that place. At the Whal claim J. F.
