 The Zcnia Ships.
 Shipments Of high and medium grade copper ores have been resumed at the McMahon copper mine oi Zonia The first carload went out to the Hayden shelter about ten days ago. Other shipments will follow at regular intervals. A large tonnage of medium grade copper ore is blocked out in readiness for shipment, and as depth is gained the copper content is said 10 be increasing in grade and value. The McMahon holdings have paid the expenses attaching to degel- oqment work almost from the date when the brothers of that name erect ed location monuments thereon. Prior t1 tne advance in the price of copper i ihe property had a production record and was considered an unusually pru- alising copper prospect. With copper at 21la cents, the operators are prac- tically relieved ol financial worry as ! the mine is ia shape 10 output suiii- cient ore to pay the expense entaiisd iu sinking to depth.
 The Montezuma Active.
 Working under forced draft the men in the employ of the Monrezuua Mining Company are getting things in shape for the campaign of eXten- s!ve development work that is to be linauguTated about the middle of the current month. The property is one of the best known in the Bradshaw mountains. IL carries a series of par aneling ledges that offer proft-making possibilities in the way Of gold, silver, tungsten and lead. In fact, it is con sidered probable that shipments of tungsten ore will be made concurrent ] ly with the resumption oi work. The corporation is headed by J. P. Wal dron of Colorado Springs, Colorado, and is said to be supplied with funds iample for the extensive development planned.
