them 1t will be one of the richest properties in the county. The vein has ore bodies that can make a great pro duction, in one place being fully 40 feet between walls.
 The Banner, one of the properties of the Arizona-Butte group, has been opened by tunnel for a distance of 2200 feet and there is scarcely a break in the ore bearing vein. Meas urements have shown 3Sy0OO tons of millable ore in the vein opened up, and there are many thousands of tons on the dump. This mine, to operate, would have to buck water, which the tunnel will obviate, and which will be reached at a depth of close to 1000 feet.
 Above the Banner is the De la Fountain, which will be cut at a depth of 14OO feet. This mine has, great bodies of lead and zinc and will be brought into the producing stage with practically no effort, once it is tapped by the tunnel. Other veins to the north of this would be reached at greater depth.
 Along the Cupel canyon the Foun- tain Head, Blue Bell, Shooting Star, Browne are a network of other veins of merit. All these veins center in the Browne, now known as the Lady Jane. This great vein was worked some years ago for it's gold, silver and copper content. It is more than 300 feet between walls and will be reached at depth of close to 2OOO feet. Prac- tically every foot of the way along the system of veins to the mountain top and far beyond should be pay ore, if surface indications go for anything.
 While it may take some time to drive the tunnel, it is expected that great headway will be made on 1t. The company has ordered a 75-horse- power gas engine, a 50-horsepower compressor and large outfit of drills. With these a dOuble-track tunnel will be driven. A treasury fund sufficient to do the work, or rather get under the old workings of the Prince George and Banner, is in the hands of the com pany. The necessary machinery will arrive on the properties and be in op- eration before September 1. A road way is now being built to the portal, so that everything will be readily moved in when the machinery is re- ceived

HEAVY TRANSFORM

A heavy rainstorm passed over the northern end of the Wallapai noun tains Sunday afternoon last. The rain fall filled ravines to depth of several feet. and spread out over miles of country along the Santa Fe railroad. No damage was done, however, and the moisture will be of great benefit to the new grass coming up over the country.

PROSECUTING AT
 THE COMBINATION

 The Combination has started cross cutting at the 5OO-foOt point and will go both north and south in search of two lodges that are known to tra- verse the company's ground close to the shaft.
 Superintendent W. P. Mahoney thinks the "blind" ledge cut in the shaft at 100 feet will be found from 70 to 12O feet to the north. The other may be quite close or an unexpected distance away to the south. On that side in cutting the station a rhyolite dyke, showing on the surface, was opened but no special values have been noted.

 The company has taken it's stock off the market, the allotment at 25 cents a share having been oversubscribed.

UNEXPECTED DISCOVERY
 AT THE OLD EMPIRE
[FrOn Chloride Section Daily AElnsr.I

As the work of cleaning out the old Empire goes on, unexpected workings are disclosed, showing that the early Chloriders were busy getting out high grade ores, as this class of operators seldom did any extra development work for the sake of style, or make any false motions which involved a @waste of tissue"

few hundred yards will stop and, with
raised wings, will whirl rapidly round

Mourning Friday,

1t was not always called Good Fri
day. Years ago in Germany 1t was
frequently referred to as Mourning Fri
day. Our early ancestors In England
did not call 1t Good Friday, either. but
Long Friday. Such is the term in an
ancient ecclesiastical law about 1000
years old. The Danes used the same
name, Long, instead Of Good Friday.
The reason for using the word long
was doubtless found In the seeming
endless and severe fast practiced that
day. At one time the Spaniards en-
phasized the solemnity Of Good Friday
by closing all the churches.
Nowhere else that I have happened
to be on a Good Friday was the day
so soiemnly observed as in Rome The
city seemed to be in mourning. making
