ARROWHEAD DISTRICT

ENGINEERS SATISFIED WITH
SHOWING IN PRINCIPAL
NINE OF NEW CAMP

The rush is on in the new mining
district of Arrowhead. Recent ar
rivals from Nevada's latest boom
say that hardly a day passes with
out the entry of new capital into
the field. Surveyors, claims locators
and business men all signalize their
interest and stamp the new district
as typical old time Nevada boom.
Engineers give their approval to the
rich showing in the Arrowhead mine
and are unanimous in their verdict
that the orebody has all the signs
of being persistent.
Development work is being done
by the Johns, the Goodman and
Chesire interests and the work on
the NEEDLES group taken over re-
Gently by J. E. Bevis and Fl. p.
Kelvin is confined to surface pros
pecting asI Mr.. Bevis is undecided
as to whether he will continue sink
ing the old shaft from which $12
assays are obtained, or do prelim-
mary trenching elsewhere on the
vein in hope of intercepting a shoot
on the surface. 1t is understood
that preliminary development on
these claims is being financed by
one of the most substantial of the
Divide companies.

southeast crosscut on the seventh,
or 35O-foot level of the latter. At
no point do the slopes in the Flor
ence approach the fault in either
the main vein or the Rogers, which
is supposed to be separate ore
channel, and therefore it is pointed
out by men who have studied con-
ditions that the theory that the
fault cuts off the ore is unsound.
H. G. Mcmahon. manager for the
Red Hill, is now making the first
conscientious effort to open ore
south of the fault in the Rogers
vein, which has been displaced so
feet by the fault action, and re-
suits thus far obtained prove at
least that he has fertile field to
prospect, with excellent chances for
success in opening body of ship
ping ore. This would be OF the
