The mine had undergone unwatcring previous toI their arrival. and it is reported that in addition to the good values given the tonnage ready for stoping was an essential factor to support resump- ton.
 It vas also learned that D. \. Sea man will be the superintendent under | the new order of things at the Juanita. ! Under former operations the property . was equipped with milling plant, and . a large amount of development was given This work will be continued . to support reduction, and in the mean | time the old workings will provide large tonnage for treatment The outlook for this we'll known carly-day gold producer is decidedly encourag- ing, the new operators having the ad vantage of going ahead under eco nomical conditions which did not pre- vail in the past handling of the prop erty.

 According to papers received at the office of the clerk of the Superior court yesterday from Justice of the Peace C. w. Bennett at Clarkdalc, one Henry Schuerman, who has a well known ranch on the well known Oak creek, did build Q lot of wine, and did sell 100 gallons of it in two barrels to certain parties. Also for SSO. So, Henry was arrested. ac. cused of selling vinous liquors. He was released on $500 bail

PROMOTER OF GOLD
 MINING DEAL AGREED TO
(From Thursdays Oaiiy0

Colorado mining men, on reprcscn- tations made by their consulting en- ginccr, J. D. Barry, yesterday prac- tically closed the deal for the Pro- motcr group of gold mines, owned by C. F. Warren and B. F. Peters. The transaction was consummated in this city.
 Possession is to be given in l5 days, and the consideration is quite heavy, with a substantial first cash payment agreed on. The property is situated in Crook canyon, and the sellers have been operating the prop crty for over three years, the values from the grass roots to q depth of over 100 feet from the apex being except ionally high in gold. In connection with this deal, Mir. Barry and his associates made several trips to the property during the past two months, and after looking over other proper ties in the county, came to the con clusion that the Promoter offered an attractive investment. Samples taken from the ore dump of over 250 tons, gave values of from $40 to $70 in gold, one feature of the product being its free milling character, which would give fully 50 per cent on the plates Another desirable condition was also in evidence, in the orc measured in the workings, approximately close to B. GOO tons. while the high grade pay streak shows 20 inches in a well de- fined vein. The new syndicate is prominently known in Colorado. where it has other mines operating.

When known as the Derby several thousand feet of explo- ration was given many years ago. The company also owns properties in Has sayampa district, and these will be looked over later.
