Mines of the County

mining property.
 Eli Hilty paid visit to the Arabian mines this week, and reports that work IS progressing on the property satis- factorily. The recent strike of silver in the mine continues its big showing. while the gold values still hold good. The mines are developing to such an extent that those who know believe they will become the largest producers of gold and silver in the state.
 T. k. Garnier, accompanied by G. H. Hyland, of Los Angeles, passed through Kingman yesterday on their way to Cerbat, where they will look after property in which Mir. Garnier is interested. Mir. Garnier is also here to look after mining property in Wallapai mountains, on which Walter Myers and Harry Mehatfy have been working the past two months. This latter property is said to be one of the best in the Wallapais. and with proper equipment ought to be big producer.
 George B. Ayers came in from Gold road yesterday with bar of bullion weighing l5.0OOS, the weeks cleanup of the mill. It is the general opinion that the property is about to increase it's production, tine management hav- ing placed Joe Onetto, one of the old mine superlntendents, in charge of the mining. Onstto has brought in num- Der of Italians from the Grass Valley country and will try te increase the production without increasing the ex. pense. Itl IS quite probable that he will be able to do this.
 Last week the Tom Reed mill ship ped it's output of bullion for the month of May. the bars weighing 92.5OOs. The com pany figures on keeping the output about lvO.OOO$ monthly until the new levels have been run on the 95O and 1000, after which it is the be- lief that a greater output of bullion will be made. The ore on the 95O level is over twice as rich as that now being sent to the mill, which would indicate what may be- done later on in the matter of bullion output. The mine is one of the most phenominal in the country and is sure to increase its production year by year.
 Saturday night R. c. Jacobson came up from Copperville, where he had been looking over the property of the Arizona Southwestern Copper con- pany with the shareholders. While there he also arranged for the taking of the compressor and drill outfit over the mountain to the Copper Canyon mines, as we'll as the gasoline engine that is to be used in operating the compressor. He is interested in the properties and is getting things in shape for the pressing of work on the big vein. He made a test of the Cop perville lead ores on the little dry cOncentrator and obtained splendid re- suits.
 John Phillips and H. l.. Stewart cane iu from the mines of the Nevada Arizona Gold mines company, at Music mountain, yesterday afternoon. They report that the vein the Lucknow has been cut at the 420 level, but owing to the thrush of water no examination of the ore could be made. In the Roose- welt tunnel drift has been run off on another vein and is now in 75 feet. From the point of diversion the ore has been found very rich. assays run ming up in the hundreds of dollars to the ton. The vein is about four feet wide and the average of two feet is about eos to the ton in gold MT. Phillips and James Merckle have been on the coast few weeks past pur. chasing machinery for mine and mill. A big compressor. engine, drills, cyanide tanks and other necessary ma. chinery is among the outfit that will arrive at the mines about the first of July. Messrs. Phillips and Stewart are jubllant over the showing made in the mines and are more than pleas. ed with the flow of water encountered in the shaft. which assures supply for the mill. During the past several months an ideal camp has been es- tabljshed at the mines
