Especial to The Republican,
 PRESCOTT, Feb. 13. - Arrivals from Vicksburg, the small mining camp of the desert on the A. x c. railroad, give quite interesting re ports of another mine excitement that is prevailing on account ot the striking of very rich silver ore by Josiah Winchester, the pioneer resi- dent of that country. The extent of the riches is not known, but the un- covering of the vein has been ac- Complished, and that shows all the indications of a bonanza property it is said
 Winchester for some years had been working at intervals to trace the float he has been picking up, and it is now believed that he has reached the source. A shallow shaft has been sunk, and the dyke is be- ing prospected at different points, clearly establishing the float to have come from that zone. The values are not known, but the samples would indicate over 800 ounces to the ton.

Mexican Girl Unable to Tell of Out

Especial to The Republican,


 TUCSON, Feb. 13-Owing to the inability of a young Mexican girl to speak the English language, the man who committed an assault upon her has been permitted to escape When the police received the information of the crime, the perpetrator, Mex ican believed to have come from Sonora the evening before, had dis appeared without leaving any trace of his whereabouts.
 According to the story told by the girl. who is a domestic employed in a rooming house. she was upstairs making beds on a front porch when a man called her down from below asking if there was any rooms to rent She told him yes and invited him to come up and see them. She says the assault followed.
 She afterward hurried to the owner of the rOoming house, frantic, crying, unable to make herself understood. It was then about 10 o'clock and it was two hours later when a person understanding Spanish came along and acted as interpreter.
 The girl does not give satisfac- tory description of her assailant.

MINE |S NOT LISTED
 IN COMPANY ASSETS
Pioneer Company Had Defaulted in Payment for the Plumed
 Knight Last June
Especial to The Republicanl


 TUCSON, Feb. 13.-That the Plumed Knight mine is not listed in the assets of the Pioneer Smelting company that recently filed a peti tion in Bankruptcy here is a recent development of the case. It is val ued at $100,0OO and on it the Pioneer Smelling company had paid $52,000. As a result the debenture holders will not be paid in full, in all prob ability, as the only other important asset is the smelting plant
 It appears that the installment that was due in June last was not paid by the company but by E. Hicks Herrick, representing the new com pany that has obtained control of the old The effect, if not the in tention is to punish the debenture holders who refused to come into the re- organization, while those who did will retain their equity in the mine.
 The Plumed Knight is about twen- ty miles southwest of this city and about seven miles from the shelter. It was bought from l.. D. Chilson of San Pedro, Calf. The payment that had to be met in June was $30,000 and at that time the company was without the requisite funds. It now stands in the name of Fred w. Day. trustee, who lives in New York and is president of the Royal Insurance company.
 The old company still has mort gage on the Gould claims, has a half interest in the North Star claims and owns the shelter which cost to con struct and equip $140000

Especial to The Republican,
 DOUGLAS, Feb. 13-Professor R. H. Forbes, director of the experi- mental station, has informed the board of supervisors that he will be ready to meet them and make the se- lection of site for the sinking of the exploration well in the Sulphur Spring Valley for which the state has appropriated S7,506. It. is probable that a trip through the valley will be taken after he comes here and before the selection of the sIJe is announced. Under the terms of the bill, the well must be sunk on school lands.
 It is reported that G. I. Van Meter, of Whitewater, has found a good To- cation for the well near Elfrida and will guaranty to sink 2000 feet, if so great a depth shall be necessary, for the amount that is made available by the bill.
 Several other locations are being urged, one being on the slopes from the Huachucas southwest of Bisbee and others in the vicinity vlii COX.

RICH GOLD ORE FOUND
 AT THE GRASS ROOTS
Ledge Running 4 Ounces Gold and GA Silver Uncovered in the
 Huachucas
Special to The Republican,

(Spec1dl to me hepuDllcdn)
 BISBEE, Feb. 13.-Gold excitement not new in the Huachucas but stimu- lated from time to time by new finds of high grade, was given touch of the spectacular the end of last week when discovery was made practically at grass roots of a defined ledge running 4 ounces in the yellow metal and GA ounces to the ton.
 The ledge was opened at four diff ferent points in the waterway lead ing down the canyon from the Hart ford mine. Report of the discoveries came here yesterday. when assay re- turns were received from general samples made from the ledge at points of opening. The strikes were made on the property of the Hart ford Mining Co. The first was en- countered within 200 feet of the main working of the mine. The others were a little further down the waterway.
 Discovery came about through the employment of a construction shift on bridge building across the water way The force was distributed at the four points where bridge erec- tion was planned. The shifts dug down to deepen the water course. At four feet, the first crew struck in to the ledge. It's commercial value was apparent at a glance and the find was sampled. It looked so good that the word was sent down to the other crews to go into the ledge They too got into it quickly. Values at the four points sampled were found to run very close to- gether.
 The ledge is one of several carry ing surface values and trending di- rectly into the main workings of the Hartford. All are known to carry strike of the end of the week are the highest of which there has been in dication of continuity. The indica- tions are excellent that these veins merge in the mine area proper, at depth, and it is from this standpoint that the surface findings are consid- cred of interest at this time by the Hartford people
 On the outside a different sort of speculation is created by the find. It iss reminder to prospectors that there is in the Huachucas an exceed ingly favorable country, wherein all the things have not by any manner of means been found. Such a find as that reported from the Hartford wa terway, it is needless to say. would mean a rush in many mining districts Up in Nevada the newspapers would find occasions for half page heads and stories of picture rock,' 'jewelry strikes etc. for months. Down in this part of the country all these things are taken more placidly The grass-roots material of the Hartford nevertheless has an exceedingly good look and with a fine prospecting sea- son coming on, with abundance oi water, grass and game assured, period of prospecting is certainly made to look inviting.
