Mines of the COunty'

Gold Road Mines company, this morn- ing brought in bar of bullion weigh ing 16,OOO$. Quite a number of contractors have been in Kingman the past ten days looking into the subject of bidding on the courthouse. It appears to be the general impression that it will be i'm possible to complete the building for the amount of money indicated by the architect.
 H. c. Tabor, of Colorado. was visitor in Kingman this week, being on his way to Oatman, where he is to make an examination of the Tom Reed Jr., mines, for Pasadena people. MT. Tabor is well known to many Mohave county people and is considered one of the best mining men in the business.
 Dan Worth, who has just returned from Los Angeles, where he had been looking after mining business, reports that the storm did an immense amount of damage to that country. MT. Worth has entered the mining business and his many friends hope that he may make big success.
 William Mich is having timbers hauled out to the mines at SecreG Pass .nta tN tip,hor tho Sh fl cn that work may be carried on below the water level. A big water bucket was also sent to the mines this week. The mine IS said to be looking fine, good ore being found in the bottom of the shaft.
 From five to eight feet of ore running above twenty dollars gold to the ton has been opened in three of the shafts being sunk on the Arabian mines, at Union Pass. The property is showing well wherever work has been done and the Mines Company of America ap- pears: to have been successful in it's first venture in Arizona mines.
 The shaft on the Eclipse mine, at Secret Pass, has reached a depth of 200 feet, where a crosscut twelve feet entered the vein. The vein has been cut six feet, showing a fine grade of ore. An unexpectedly large flow of water was struck, which necessitates the installation of pump. The man. agement believe that the mine is sure to make good, and to judge from the way the ore pans we believe that a big producer will be opened.
 A mining engineer has been exam ming the Golconda mine for one of the big zinc concerns of the middle western states, with a view, it is reported, o1 taking it over and working it on q large scale. With plenty of money back of it the Golconda should be one of the biggest producers in the state not only in zinc, but in lead, copper gold and silver as well. Practically every dollar that has been put into the big group was taken from the mine, as we'll as building up the group by the purchase of surrounding property.
 Walter Myers, Harry Mehatfy ant w. E. Frost are working mine in the hills back of Wallapai Springs ant have four feet of splendid ore h the shaft which they are sinking on the mine. An average sample of the ort across the whole vein gave result O nearly forty dollars in gold, silver and lead. The vein shows gain ir width from the surface and it is ex pected that with greater depth tho vein will be one of the best in tha section of the county. A crosscu tunnel is to be run in to tap the ver at considerable depth below the shaft and through which the further devel opment of the vein will be carried on
