BURIED GOLD
LURES DERRY

PRESCOTT, Ariz., Nov. 24.-Lured
Derry of Kinsale, Ireland, will return
to Prescott again next year and con-
tinue his search among the boulders of
Yavapai county for $4,000 in gold dust
which he believes lies hidden among
the rocks. For two years Derry has
been quietly searching under all the
boulders around Prescott, and in the
Granite Dele section, and he still be-
lieves that the money will be found.
According to the statement of an
Irishman who died some years ago in
Denver, three miners had fled from the
extreme northeastern part Of Arizona
with thousands of dollars worth of
gold dust which they had recovered
from diggings there. The dust was
cached far from It's source, and the de-
scription given by the dying man was
almost exactly that of the country
around Prescott. Some fifteen years
ago number of persons expended
several thousand dollars in excavating
and moving boulders in the vicinity
of the Pioneers home here, hoping to
find the gold dust, aa.a 1t is generally
believed that he Is a not distant rela-
tive of the dead miner. The gold is
said to have been cached in 1859.

GOLD DUST IS
TREATING ORE
SUGGEST FULLY

OATMAN, Ariz., Nov. 24.-The new
process of treating ore without stamps
which it is claimed after development
may be done at 81 per ton, is now in
use in the mill of the Gold Dust Mines
company in this camp. Thus far after
TWO days trial, it has, been successful
The ore is first crushed and then
passed into a pulverizer, working on a
centrifugal principle. This grinds it to
zO0-mesh.a and on the first run here it
was found that about rs per cent of it
reaches that fineness. The most. of it
reaches 100mesh the first grinding.
After reaching 200-mesh, which of the
extreme fineness of the gold. it is
lassed into centrifugal gold separator.
This consists of revolving bowl with
rifles in the sides, the rifles be-
ing filled with quicksilver by the
Whirling motion of 200 revolutions a
minute. Inside is stationery bowl,
which holds the pulp closer to the
quicksilver, the distance between being
fl ON one eighth to one thirty-second
Of an inch. This forces the finest of
the gold into contact With the quick
silver, which during the motion plasters
greater specific gravity forces the gold
Through the quicksilver, and the ama.-
gam thus formed settles into the RIFLES.
The Gold Dust has 60 tons of ore in
the bins ready for treatment and more
being broken down in the stope in
which a chute has been installed.
A huge tonnage awaits the advent of
a mill at the Boundary Gone mine.
Your correspondent today made a tour
OF the underground workings. Four
levels have been opened-the $50, 400,
$50 and 750-and on each are immense
bodies of milling ore. Four thousand
feet of work has been done An i'm
mense amount of ore that with i'm
proved conditions will pay to mill, in
the IS to 81 ton class, which in many
camps would be fortune, could be
broken down and hoisted at any time.
Otherwise there are values in places of
1920. $50 and even $780, The showing
would justify mill now Drifting in

ROOSEVELT GOLD

Ihe announcement of pending de-
Velopment activities on a large scale in
the Roosevelt gold district thrilled the
Globe Miami district yesterday A new
golo field is il the making The man
Dehlnd the news is Lawrence w. Baker,
q wealthy Arizona pioneer prospector,
Who has been prospecting in the Buck

velt dam for several years. Baker left

That he had decided his property, the
Fro Patria claims. to the Apache Trail
Consolidated Mines company, cor

self.
The gold claims decided consist of the
Pro Patria group Of six claims. on
which Baker has spent thousands of
dollars in prospecting and development
work during the years he has been
working in the district. The pictur-
esque "Old Timer" has made finan-
cial success in locating and selling a
number of copper claims, but for him.
self, he has persisted in his search for
gold.
The Pro Patria group Is located In
one of the oldest known gold districts
in the state. An old Mexican arrasrra
on the bank of the Salt river, near the
property. showing where Mexicans used
that primitive method in extracting
gold from the rock In the early days, is
proof that the gold is there. There are
also ruins Of an old mill near the place.
Mr.. Baker first LOCATED the claims
several years ago, in company with
John Ferryman, who had prospected
for gold in Australia, South Africa and
South America. Later he purchased
Ferryman's interest in the group and
spent several thousand dollars in pros
pect and preparatory work.
To reach the property, Mr.. Baker has

dam, for the transportation of supplies
across the river He now plans to
build suspension bridge across the
stream. He has purchased several
other claims adjoining the Pro Patria
group. and with a tunnel driven from
the canyon wall at the south end of
Pro Patria No. 2, he expects to cross
cut at a depth of $50 to 800 feet, a
number Of lodges that outcrop on the
hill above.
Mr.. Baker, who spends considerable
portion of his time in. Miami and Globe,
is of the picturesque old gold pros
pectors of the west and continues the
old life as matter of choice, and me-
cessity, as he is said to be worth about

Arizona Ray Copper
Why Buy 1t?

Because it's ITO acres Of
ground adjoins and is partly sur
rounded by two of the great
copper mines of Arizona, RAY
CONSOLIDATED and RAY
HERCULES.
Because geological and min
eralogical conditions, as proved
by mining and drilling opera
tions, seem to indicate that the
ore bodies developed in the two
big mines also extend under the
Arizona Ray ground, and at
shallow depth.
Because of its very location,
omitting> any mining develop
ment, Arizona Ray appears to
have a combined intrinsic and
speculative valuation far above
it's present price, which is now
about 27c per share.
Because Ray Consolidated. on
one side of Arizona Ray, is now
selling at about $4,000 per share, Z
and Ray Hercules, on the other
side, sells at about $4.00 per
share.
Because these stocks sold at
lower prices than Arizona Ray
is offered at this time, when
they were in similar stage Of
development and you failed to
take opportunity by the forelock
and "get aboard"
Because Arizona Ray appears
to offer you another opportunity
like the one presented to you by
Ray Consolidated in the early
days.
Because copper stocks are
showing increasing activity and
copper prices will remain high
for a long time, assuring mar
ket at high prices for the product
of the company.
Because Arizona Ray is listed
on two great exchanges, and you
can always find a ready market
when you desire to either buy
or sell.
Because within a few days
time. the first drill-hole in the
Arizona Ray ground promises to
reach the "pay zone"
Because news that the extern
sion of the ore body from the
Hercules ground has been
reached will cause very sharp
price advances for Arizona Ray
stock.
Because Arizona Ray is being
well financed, is managed by one
of the most successful copper
mine developers in the West, and
gives promise of making a great
mine.
Because Arizona Ray appears
to be OUR BIG OPPORTUNITY.
