PRIZE DOG WITH mIpeETs.
"Lalli" Cup Winning English Bull
Owned by. Baron Singer.

"Lalli" the large English bull pup
that won three prizes at the Philadel-
phia horse show this season, belongs to
Baron Leo Singer. owner of the famous
Singer Midget troupe which is appear
ing here at the Opera House this;
week. The pup is a great pet of thu,
troupe. and despite what would be
termed his ugly and ferocious appear
ance. he is as gentle as kitten. The
bull and his friends made their ap-
pearance on the streets of Augusta yes
terday, and everyone that CHANGED to
meet the imposing stranger gave it a
wide berth. The midgets, together
with their pet. made very odd pic
ture, as the bull weighs more than the
heaviest member of the troupe.
Seventy five other dogs accompany
the show, but only so of them appear
on the stage. all of them being pets of
the various members of the troupe.
Baron Singer bought the prize bull for
1000 marks in Brussels, Belgium, but
would not part with him now, as he
has become so firmly attached to the
midgets and the rest of the company.

A young man giving tho name OF
George Laird Of 119 Newbury street.
Brockton, Mass. sustained q fracture
Of the left hip at an early hour Tues
day morning in jumping from the head
end of Train No. s. which goes west
from Augusta at 3.04 A. NJ. just as the
train was passing over the winthrop
street crossing. An ambulance was
called and the injured man was taken
to the Augusta General hospital where
the fracture was reduced and he was
made as comfortable as possible.
It has been learned that Laird had
Jumped" the Pullman at Bangor
and was riding on the forward
end Of the mail car and next to the
tender Of the locomotive; also that he
intended to leave the train at Augusta
because he had been wet at Waterville
and this with the frosty air Of Monday
night and Tuesday morning caused him
much suffering from the cold. AS the
train passed over the Winthrop street
crossing he made a jump and landed
about 10 feet south of the gate house
and near the standpipe. but chilled as
he was he did not alight as he had in
tended and his left leg bent under him,
resulting in a fracture Of the hip as
stated above.
No further details have been learned
regarding Laird excepting that he is
no hobo. The address given by him to
the railroad men Is in a respectable
section Of the city Of Brockton, and his
clothing throughout was Of good quail
ity. It is supposed that he was making
his way home by the no-ticket route.
He is about 20 years old.

CYGLOPIC MINE Is
 SOLD BY STANLEY [.
 BAGG TO CHICAGOANS
[From Tue,dar,, paily MinerI

Representative of a syndicate of Chicago people yesterday entered in to an agreement for the purchase of the Cyclopic mine in the Gold Basin country from Stanley c. Bagg, and S5,O00 payment was made. The deal was brought about by A. G. Frazier, who has been operating properties in this county the past year.
 The Cyclopic mine has been operat- ed by MT. Bagg for five or six years, and during the time he has taken from one stope inI the property between S5O,OOO and s6O,OOO. The drift on the same level has been driven 300 feet in ore. A small mill has been crush ing the ore, it being found necessary to crush the ore to pass through TO- mesh screen, after which all the gold, with exception of about 20 cents, IS recovered.
 The new owners are to at once remodel the mill and add greatly to its capacity. Development will also be carried on in the mine, a shaft to 20 several hundred feet below the pre- sent level being contemplated. c. D.. Rooklidge, well known in Kingman and Oatman, will be in charge of the property for the new owners. It is estimated that there is 50,0O0 tons of S10 ore in sight in the mine at present, and many thousands of tons can be opened at small cost.
 Mir. Bagg, who is selling the prop erty has done an immense amount of work on the mine and has made it pay we'll during the past several years. He is an old newspaper man, having edited and published the Tombstone Epitaph and Prospector in the early days of the camp.
 The Cyclopic is situated 40 miles north of Kingman and in one of the most accessible parts of the Cerbat range.

WALSH WILL BRING
 MONEYED PEOPLE HERE

J. J. Walsh departed yesterday for the coast and will be back in a short time with number of important peO- pie who are considering investing in Oatman on his recommendation. He stated upon arrival this week that he knew of people who would come here with that intention in short time and it would only be necessary for the hot weather to pass for the residents to prepare to welcome them.
 Mir. Walsh, by the erection of the largest business block in the city, the three-story concrete Walsh building, has shown that he is a'thoroughbred when it comes to talking about faith in Oatman and he has never for a moment weakened in his optimism.

COUNTRY ROCK OF THE
 COMBINATION ASSAYS

At a meeting of the directors of the Characterization, held Mon day, it was decided to increase the underground force sufficiently to run two crosscuts and henceforth the sec ond opening will be driven to the north. A ledge that was cut in the shaft between the 100 and 200 should be reached in about 100 feet. At the depth that it was opened it gave an average assay of S3.71. President R. L. Johns, who is most conservative in his views as to estimating possible values, believes that it should be com mercial ore at the present depth of 525.
 The south crosscut is out 50 feet and is in a most promising country. ! It cut through a rhyolite dyke for 25 feet, which gave average assays of S2 F to S5 and for 25 feet more in the for nation the same values are found MT. Johns says they will average SS in both dyke and country rock, which | gives hope of soon striking an ore body of the highest importance and commensurate values. Such an in- tense naturalization in the country rock and dyke are unprecedented in Oatman mines and the greatest ex- pectations result in the minds ot those who have labOred and spent their money in an effort to make the Combination into a mine.
 Another thing that will surprise people is the fact that tungsten has been found in the shaft. Near the 400 a stringer of eight inches was cut and thought to be manganese. It: looks were not convincing, however and different parties looked at it, un- til it was decided to send it to Gold road for testing. No quantitative analysis was made, but it was found to be wolframite. It hurts no golc mine to have tungsten in the same neighborhood.

BONANZAS GROSSCUT
 IS MAKING HEADWAY

The Goldroad-Bonanza's crosscut on the 35O-foot level is out 35 feet and advancing steadily. It is estimated that it will take about 50 feet to cut the ledge at that depth.
 The plan is merely to open and ex- anime the ledge as to values at that point, but not to drift unless the rich ness there is extraordinary. Sinking will be resumed and continued to the 5OO-foot level at least and the ore taken out and placed on the surface by the cheaper and more scientific method of raising and stOping all of it in lot.
 Since the values on the surface and in the shaft where the ledge was cut were better than s, the management feels no uncertainty over results with the proper depth, and expects shoots of ore from connecting veins from the Goldroad ledge, which is parallel and only 150 feet to the north.

UNITED WESTERN
 CUTS BUNCH OF ORE
CFrom oatman Section Daily Miner.)

(From Oatman Section Daily Miner.)
 The United Western is working as vigorously as ever in quest of an ore shoot that the management feel that 1t is due to find in, the north central poi ton of he camp where the United Eastern ledge ought to pass through. its shaft is 500 feet deep and it has oone 500 feet of drifting, which is more work than any property in the camp except the Goldroad Tom Reed, United Eastern, Boundary Cone and Pioneer.
 A few days ago one of the drifts passed through a small body of ore, but it did not hold out. With more than the faith of the biblical grain of mustard, the management is hanging on and has hung on during all kinds of verbal storms of knocking and slurs of unappreciation. It still stands the same show of striking ore as any of the properties working and until it is demonstrated that such is beyond it's powers and present management will persevere.

MACHINERY FOR
 KEYSTONE MILL
 REACHES MINE
rFrOm oatmAn Section Daily Miner.I


 Mill men for the Keystone, accom- panied by T. H. Fitzgerald, secretary of the company, arrived in Chloride Wednesday morning. Thursday work commenced on the foundations of the mill. Part of the machinery has ar rived and will be placed in position by October 15, at which time the mill will be in running order.
 The Desert Power company has con tracted to have power in Mineral Park by October 1. The power company's inability to get transformers has caused the delay in entering this field. The transformers, however, have now been purchased and are on their way to Kingman.
 The mill will be of 100 tons capac- ity and built in such a manner that it can be increased in size at any time. The mill is being erected by the Fields Floatation company of Seattle, Wash.
 The Holmes property at Mineral Park have curtailed their force pend ing the erection of the mill, but MT. Holmes says that now, since opera tions have commenced on the mill, the forces on both properties will be in- creased.
 As soon as the mill is completed the same company has contracted to erect a similar plant on the Midnight. The latter, however, will be of larger ca pacity, as the Midnight's ore bodies are of larger extent and lower grade than the Keystone.
 Before the curtailment of forces the two Keystones employed 75 men in de velopment work.

NEW ROAD ID BE COMPLETE BY END
 OF THIS MONTH

Recently the Daily Miner predict ed that the new road over the Gold road hill would be completed by Sep tember 1, and now it seems that the prediction is not to be far of. The engineer in charge has informed the men that they will be laid of on that date by reason of the work being done, and advised them to seek new em- ployment. Several have made appli- cation for other work.
 Surfacing is in progress now, and will continue to the last minute. With this exceedingly dry weather it will be hard to pack that character of ma terial satisfactorily, and it is hoped that before the day when autos are all lowed upon it that few good rains will come to take the bulk of the work of the hands of the county's men. Not that the latter do not need the work the more, but nature is a better hand at the job, always doing it better the world over
 Rock work yet to be done consists of two cuts. One is at the summit and the other below No. 3 shaft of the Goldroad mine. Both are com paratively short and can be completed with the resources in, men and ma terial in the time stated.
 The first cars to break the roads will start from the summit and make the down grade run, which will make it a short task indeed.

FEDERAL COURT WILL
 CONVENE AT TIME SET

The Daily Miner yesterday wired the clerk of the United States Court for information of the next sitting of the court. It received a reply that court would convene in Prescott on September and the grand jury would begin it's sitting two days later. '
 Many witnesses and jurors have been called from this county and have been anxious to get definite informa- tion, as it was reported that no ses- sion would be held until later in the month. The converting of the court so close to the primaries will be a hardship on some of the candidates who have been called as witnesses and jurors.

ADAMS SHAFT Is
 CLOSE ID LEDGE
(From oatman Section Daily Miner.J


 The Adams shaft seems to be break ing into its ledge, or at least is in some stringers that must be close to it. It has struck vein matter and it carries tsome values. Just how rich is not given out. by Superintendent W. F. Kilker, but he says that while it looks very encouraging the values are nothing to get excited about.
 In Tuesdays issue it was stated that the formation showed mineral and apparently was nearly the ledge, At that time it was 225 feet deep. It is about 245 now.
 Since a great deal of high grade ore has been found in the southern end of the camp on the surface and par ticularly on other properties near there. as well as some on the Adams itself, it is not unlikely that when the ledge is tapped it will prove good The neighbors of the Adams are the Crescent, Wrigler, Nellie, Black Range, Oatman Syndicate, Green Quartz and others.

STRIKE
 IN OATMAN GOLD
(From oatman Section Daily Miner.)

(From Oatman Section Daily Miner.)
 Eli Hilty yesterday paid flying visit to the KOkomo property of the Oatman Gold Mining & Milling com pany at Oatman, where report had it that big strike of ore had been made on the 5OO-foot level. He states that the strike was made all right and that the ore is as rich as reported.
 The whole width of the drift is in ore of a value close to $50 per ton, This drift is being driven into the ore as fast as machines can do the work The drift is now getting under the sur face outcropping, where high values were found by the original owners. Ii is probable that a long shoot of this rich ore will be opened.

IFrom Oatman Section Daily AIfner.I
 One pound of rock-it does not mat ter from what property it came, so long as it was from the Oatman dis trict-yielded over s9 worth of gold yesterday when pulverized for assay ing at the office of F. O. Altinger. The first extraction amounted to over half an ounce in weight, but MT. AL tinger stated that when refined the gold would amount to slightly more than S7. Then the tailings were worked down and contained something over S2 more in fine gold.
 An assayer's relations with his GUS toner are inviolate and the latter's identity and that of his property must not be divulged. This is a case merely to show that there is high grade in the Oatman district and as long as it is here it does not really matter what property it comes from.
 The ST amount was run into,a but ton and the tailings banning, while being worked down in the afternoon were shown to the Daily Miner cor respondent and, to say the least, were inspiring.

 H. O. Granberg of Wisconsin, who was here recently has made another investment, the details of which he completed while here. He has pur- chased 5O,OOO shares of 0atman- Revenue stock, which company has promising property at Union Pass. He will be back in September or October and visit the property, making sug- gestions then as to plans for systema- tic development.
 The company has men at work on a road of one mile to reach the camp site. There is a lot of rock work to be done. With that accomplished the site for the shaft and camp will be leveled and in a short while under ground work will be inaugurated.
