BIG GOLD STRIKE
 IN EVENING STAR

A splendid strike of ore was made on the Morning and Evening Star mines, near Thumb Butte, this week by Adam Simonds and Dr. I. W. Fir man, the owners. The discovery was made at a depth of "A feet on the property, a shot having broken into a big cavity in the vein. MT. Si- monds was able to crawl into the cave and found it to be eight feet wide the rich ore being everywhere ap- parent. Samples tal1eI( from it indi- cate that it will run about $20 in gold. How large the vein is at that point has not yet been aseertained, as no attempt will be made to crosscut it until 100 feet in depth is reached.
 The owners have beem at work on the property for some time and have developed it to a considerable extent although the deepest shaft has not been driven downward mort than 75 feet. The surface showing is good, the vein giving high average values. In the outcrop the vein is fully 20 feet wide and it is the belief of the owners that it will be found fully as wide at the 100. The property is well for economic work, and the ground easily workable.
 The property is situated about A miles west of Kingman, near the old Hardyville road.

GOLD ORE BEGINS
 SINKING SHAFT

The management of the Gold Ore is developing one of the best bodies of ore in the San Francisco mining dis trict, the shaft still going down in gold ore. It is the purpose to sink 150 feet farther and then drive 400 feet into the big ore body that has been opened on the levels above. So far there has been practically no stoping of the Gold Ore ore bodies, but stopes have been opened on the levels with the view to getting out a big tonnage in the shortest possible time.
 The Gold Ore has a contract for the use of the Gold Road mill, subject to the use of the mill by the owning com pany. In the event that the mill is operated by the Gold Road company the Gold Ore product will still be handled in the mill. With this in view the Gold Ore has erected a tram be- tween the mine and the mill and will be in position to send the ore down to the plant as soon as the new ore bodies have been opened. The mine has very rich ore, in fact richer than any of the other mines in the district.

FRISCO GOLD MINE
 IS PROSECUTING VEIN

The Frisco Gold Mine, after siege against big inflow of water, is driv- ing a crosscut to get into the vein at the 200. It is expected that the vein will be encountered within the next 30 feet, small stringers of ore coming in through the country rock, and some dike rock also appearing. This dike rock lies along the main outcrop of the big vein. The vein of the Frisco is one of the largest in the country and the values have so far been excel lent.

IS gradually becoming more pronounc- ed that in order to get minerals out of
 the bowels of the earth, it is necessary to go as deep as nature placed them. Ore of commercial quality and quan- tity is sometimes found at the grass roots, but legends and lore to the con trary notwithstanding, the precious metals in their raw state in Arizona are way down deep. In the mineral alphabet of Arizona scarcely a letter is missing and now oil promises to be- come one of its assets, drilling already being under way in the Chino valley field in Yavapai county and near Hol- brook in Navajo county with excellent prospects for bringing in wells in both places.
 It is difficult before the year has elapsed to cite concrete facts. In con densed form the figures and facts which tell the world what part Ari- zona has played in the great drama of mining during the year 1917 are as follows:

MOHAVE COUNTY MAN KILLED
 ON VIMY RIDGE

"Over the top" in France has claim ed another Mohave county boy, and mother in New Brunswick is mourn ing her great loss, in which she has the sympathy of many Mohaveites who knew and loved the young fellow.
 Frank Portmore, formerly of Gold Road, was killed on the 9th of last April in the storming of Vimy Ridge, news to that effect having just been received by J. Harry Knight, an old friend. Young Portmore had enlisted in the 54th Battalion, made up of re- cruits from British Columbia. It was this regiment that bore the brunt of that dashing assault on what was thought to be an impregnable posi- tion by the Germans. He died carry ing the allies colors to one of the most glorious victories of the world war. Every man in that wonderful charge and who fell is to be envied, not mourned, because he did in one day more for the world and humanity than he could have possibly accom- plished in a lifetime of other useful ness.
 But Frank Portmore will be long by every one of his Mo- have county friends and his exploit will be history as long as human sym pathy warns the heart of man.

 If they get their 75O,OOO,OOO pounds
 of copper in 1917, it will carry the assurance that had they enjoyed nor
 nal conditions of operation and work
 ed to their maximum they would have
 made close to a billion pounds, or
 nearly one-half of the copper of the
 American continent. As it is they
 will exceed the record of 1916, re- ported by the geological survey in pound numbers of 675, ,0OO 900 pounds, the highest total of record for any copper producing division of Ameri- ca. The speed with which near nor nal output of metal has been regain ed is a further reflection of credit upon the industry as well as a valua- ble demonstration to the public of the preparednessof the Arizona copper mines for emergencies. There has been demonstration of the value of investment in ore bedding plants and their abundant stocking, as well as of the resourcefulness of the mines un- der emergency calls, by reason of which not a few producers reached in to ore areas of exceptional richness and with decreased working forces and decreased ore tonnage output, made even stronger than normal output of copper.

DISCOVERS BIG
 VEIN MANGANESE

Elmer Welch and Atha Davis have made an important discovery of man ganese ore in the Wallapai mountains, south of the Telluride Chief. Samples brought to Kingman gave results of 68 per cent. The locators report that the work done on the property is prov ing up nice bodies of the high grade. As the price of manganese is above one dollar per unit this ore would pay well to ship to the steel plants at Pittsburg.

been in charge of the mine work un- der the direction of D. R. Muir. The new work has been of a character that shows the permanency of the great vein and its possibilities below the present depth.
 The Gold Road mine was discovered a dozen years ago and has been a large producer of gold ore. The "glory hole" shaft was sunk to a depth of 500 feet, but drifts. to the east were carried off from the 500 level, reaching the Billy Bryan shaft at depth of 700 feet. While some good ore was found at that point later sinking did not open up the expected ore body. Prospecting soon developed a new vein of ore and a winze was carried down to greater depth. If the theory of a virgin vein is true it is possible that ore will be found between the 400 level and the surface, which is entirely probable.
 The Miner editor believes that Man ager D. R. Muir will make of the Gold Road one of the great gold mines of the state, as the property has all the earmarks of going to great depth and its high values.

JAMESON LEASERS
 GETTING GOOD ORE

Leasers on the Jamison mines, in the Layne Springs section, are shipping splendid ore to the smelters, one car going out last week and another this week. The ore has a value of close to S1OO to the ton in gold, silver and copper. The stopes show large ton mage of the same class of ore.
 Owing td the inadequacy of the hoisting machinery, pump and com pressor, the company has been com pelled to suspend major operations un- til early in the new year, when the necessary machinery will be supplied. Manager Raves believes that a big property will be opened with greater depth.

LOOKING AFTER
 TOWNSHIP AFFAIRS

Judge John A Ellis went over to Chloride yesterday to look after af- fairs connected with the application of the people of that town for patent to the townsite. The application was made through the Superior Court and was allowed by the land office. The owners of property in the big mining camp are anxious to ged title to their lots and it was only through patent to the townsite. It is probable that as soon as the patent issues the people will take on city airs, as there is proposition afoot to incorporate the town. This would be of benefit to the camp, allowing the people home rule and a chance to improve their streets and alleys.

ARIzONA'S SOLDIER
 QUOTA REDUCED

Col. Breen has announced that the quota of drafted men in the State of Arizona has been reduced to the min mum. Instead of the fifteen per cent, or 517 to be called, only 494 men will have to go. This will leave only 16 men from Mohave County to fill out instead of 31. The reason for the re- vision of figures in Arizona's draft is the recent checking over of the men accredited to the State and now at the various training camps.

Repord comes to Kingman that the Gold Road Mines company is cleaning up, the big mill and will have it in commission within the next sixty days. This mill has been shut down during the past year to allow of large development and prospect work, which was found necessary on account of the depleted condition of the older part of the mine.
 Since the closing down of the mill a small force of men was kept dili- gently at work on the property until at the present time enough ore has been opened in the east end mines to keep the big milling plant pounding away for a year or more. Fifty miners are now at work opening the drifts and stopes along the new levels and surprising ore bodies are being opened. It is said that the new ore bodies have values in excess of S15 per ton. The greater part of the development has been done on the Billy Bryan claim, which has a level far toward the Rail road claim of the same group. Joe Onetto, the man who was foreman in the early days of the property, has

The bundle instead of, landing in the Colorado riv- CT struck the ground and the greater part of the contents was smashed. A Santa Fe special officer recovered the bundle and arrested Kelly. The man pleaded guilty to the charge of boot logging in the Superior Court Tues day.
