MACHINERY FOR
 ARIZONA BISbEE
 BEING INSTALLED
Promising Property Northwest of Don Luis Will Soon Start development Campaign of Big Proportions.

Machinery of adequate capacity to handle the hoist and three power drills to a depth of 100 feet is now being hauled to the property of the Arizona Bisbee Copper Mining Company. To- cated two miles northwest of Don Luis. Once installed. the shaft. which is now down seen v feet. viii be rushed by the operators.
 Arizona-Bisbee Copper Mining Con- pany, So far. has been a close corpora tion. The acerage consist of seven teen claims, several of which are in fair shape to be patented and which will be as soon as possible. The prop ertt adjoins that Of the Copper Queen Extension (formerly the Bisbee Vest and is close to Copper Queen ground, being directly west Of that series Of de velopment work s1arting with the Bo- reas, on the east. and which include the Night Hawk. the White Tail Deer mine and the Broken Promise shaft Of the Wolvarine-Arizona.
 Waiter Harvey Weed, author of the Copper Handbook and geologist or note, has made a careful examination Of the property and it was on his rec ommendatton that some very infiuenti- al people have been interested. Dr. Weed recommended the work which is now being procesuted.
 The site selected for the shaft is in a little draw on the side of the hill and a short distance north of the Red Mountain. fault and contact is bed ded in the side of the hill and the shaft has been so located that lateral deyel- opment work can be sent ro this con- tact with minimum amount of drift ing. Work can also be sent out un- der the fiat or across the slight decline to explore the ground under a very promising looking lime hill.
 Machinery equipment, which is en- tirely paid for, is adequate for the work contemplated. It consists of sixty horse power oil burning hoist en- zine. From this engine will be oper- ated a 10x12 compressor. The shaft house is complete; the gallows frame complete and the shaft has been well timbered to the bottom. A road has been built to the shaft and no trouble has been encountered in hauling the machinery 10 the location.
 Ane of the features of the property is the development of water. The company went to the Cowan spring, To- cated about $500 feet high and nearly two miles from the shaft, and piped the water down to the Arizona-Bisbee. An adequate supply has been secured for all purposes.
 The shaft is being sunk in the Esca- brosa lime. the ground showing strong signs Of naturalization already. When the shaft is put down about another hundred feet cross cutting will be started and the country around the shaft developed. Fast work, with the mechanical equipment on hand, can be accomplished.
 In order to continue with the work, uninterruptedly, fifty thousand shares of the treasury stock has been placed on the market at fifty cents a share. There are 469, GOO shares of pooled stock, which was paid for the proper ty. This, by an agreement, with the corporation commission, will be held in escrow for one year. Already many thousands of dollars have been expend- ed, sinking the shaft to it's present depth, buying the machinery, securing the water suppliy and building the road to the shaft. The added fund will do a great deal if development work and may determine new mine for that re- zion.
