SENATE SILVER MAKING
 PREPARATIONS TO START

E. l.. Half the well known Oatman mineral surveyor, has been making a survey of the group of mines that composes the estate of the Senate Sil- yer Mines company, which took oveE the Blackberry South property few weeks ago. The Blackberry South was patented some years ago, but the balance of the group now in the hands of the company is unpatented.
 The company, under the direction of J. G. Heating, is sinking shaft on the property, which is now down about 30 feet. This shaft is to be made the main working shaft on the property, equipment for which has al- ready been purchased and will soon be on the ground. The company is also establishing good camp on the prop erty and within a short time it will be in shape to care for large force of men. MT. Heating has had wide experience in the exploitation of min ing property and is sure to get quick results from the work now under way.

UNITED AMERICAN
 MAKING PROGRESS

Work is proceeding with great rapidity at the United American, where force of men are at work on the cement foundations for the big plant of machinery that is to be in stalled at the main shaft. The shaft has been carried down short dis tance and collar set put in. As soon as the hoist is set up the shaft will \be driven down to the 500 level with all possible speed. Bert Lunce- ford is experimenting the work, while W. K. Ridenour is the general mana ger.
 The property of the United Ameri- can is ideally situated, having five veins outcropping on its surface. Several of the veins show great width and indications are that within a short distance some of them will come into ore. A crosscut is to be run across all the veins when the shaft reaches the 500 and drifting will be carried along the veins. There can be little question that the othery vein of the Tom Reed runs through this ground.

DEVELOPMENT WORK
 AT OLD HOPE MINE

J. A. Empey Thursday last visit ed the old Hope mine, in the high
 Wallapais, where he is having a tun- nel driven on, the vein. The property is locally known as the Hibernia, but it was patented in 1875 as the Hope lode, having been discovered in the early seventies by Bill Hope, one of the best known prospectors of the southwest. Hope took out considera- ble ore, shipments being made to San Francisco. Later the property pass ed to- William Raymond, who later deeded it to the late William H. Rog- CTS. MT. Empey has taken an option on the property and organized the Sil-- yer Jack Mines company for its op- eration. A contract, has been let to drive the tunnel into the vein a dis tance of 200 feet and later this adit is to be carried under the old work ings. Some kidneys of good ore are found along the course of the tunnel, indicating the possibility of opening body of pay ore, as we'll as mill stuff.

NcCRACKEN SILVER LEAD co. MAKING
 DRY CONCENTRATE

Leonard Hoffman, general mana ger of the McCracken Silver Lead Mines company, brought in samples of the concentrates that are being made by the new mill on the property that indicate what can be done by an up- todate dry plant. The coarse product carries about 54 per cent lead and about 35 ounces silver, while the fines run about the same in lead and consid- erably higher in silver. This new mill is said to be one of the most complete of all the dry concentration mills ever erected, the dust being cared for to such an extent that it is as dustless as a wet mill. Dust collectors have been placed over every machine and car ried off into collecting receptacles, on- ly the finest of dust going out into the atmosphere with the smoke from the engines.
 The machines have been tuned lp and are making not only a splendid product, are also effecting high say. ing of values. When the tails are finally sent to the pits they contain practically no values in either silver or. lead. The big bins at the mill, having capacity of better than 100 tons each, are being fast emptied to allow of the installation of positive feeders instead of the present belt feed, which will give the plant a greater capacity and evenness of feed to the machines. These feeders have just been built for the company and are expected by truck from Los An geles within a few days. When these feeders are placed the mill will be run steadily on ore from the big vein, which has been opened up to point where it will be, able to deliver the full capacity of mill daily. N
 The mine has opened a wonderful body of ore, large part of which may be shipped direct to the smelter without milling. This ore will have a higher lead value and lower sil- yer value than the milled product, but either product will return large profits to the company. The mine has been under development long time, but the faith of the management is being fully justified. v |,

TWIN MINE DR|FTED
 65 FEET 6FT. VEIN

Superintendent Erickson was ir from the Twins mine yesterday and reported that the drift on the vein at the 150 level-of the property is now 65 feet in ore. The ore has a width of six feet that will average, we understand, about ,$2O in gold and silver and also carries values in lead, This ore is almost solid mineral, the heavy base being iron. The vein was cut to width of about II feet, the whole mass being mineralized. This is the best showing of ore in the Ger bat section, the shoot indicating that it will be more thanN 100 feet in length.
 At the 300 level crosscut will be driven into the vein and the. ore body opened up. Should the ore prove as extensive on the lower level the com pany will be justified in the erection of a milling plant to handle the pro- duct of the mine.

 The Moonlight shaft is now down 35 feet and shows excellent ore. It is proposed to sink the shaft to the lOO, level, from which level drifts are to be carried off on the vein, \

GOLD ROAD ANNEX
 WANTS USE OF TUNNEL

The management of the Gold Road Annex is negotiating with the Gold Road Mines company for the use of the Billy Bryan tunnel, through which 1t is to open its mines lying to the north of that property. The use of the tunnel will give the Annex good depth and it is possible that discov- cries will be made on the Gold Road property, as it will run through 300 feet of this ground before entering the side lines of the Annex. The An neX company has an excellent show ing in the outcrop of it's vein and it is to be hoped that a good body of mill ore will be opened in the explor- atory work.

This company has a property that lies close to the ore bearing ground of the Gold Road Min es company, and it is possible that it will open up pay ore with further ex-

 OLD FAY MINE SOON

J. A. Hamme was here Wednesday last getting things in shape for the starting up of work on the old Fay mine and mill, situated to the east of Hancock. The property is about eight miles south of Kingman and two miles east of the railroad. It has small'mill capable of handling the out put of the mine.
 The ore that has been shipped from the property carried a value of about $40 to the ton, and there is considerable tonnage of this grade of ore in the mine.

 SECTION ACTIVE

The property of the Rural Mines
 company presents a very busy ap- pearance and from twenty to twenty five men are now being employed. The camp is completed and rapid pro- gress is being made on the new road which will make it possible shortly to go direct to the camp with an auto or truck. Part of the heavy equip ment will arrive this week and will be installed as. rapidly as delivered. A 100 horse power double drum cleo tric hoist and 10m drill compressor will be among the first of the mach inery, to be followed shortly by a hO0 ton mill. It is the intention of the management to immediately in- augurate a vigorous campaign of de- velopment of the various levels of both the Buckeye and Rural claims where large tonnage of high grade mil, ore is available.
 The new Oliver filter for the Wash ington mine arrived this week and will shortly be installed. The mill will soon be in operation and some excellent ore has recently been open ed in the mine. From twenty-five to thirty men are now employed, which force will be increased in the near future.
 Joe Prisk has completed the dewat- CT ing of the Home Pastime> property and MT. Hoover is now on the ground looking matters over. This property has been past producer of some very rich ore and the re-opening will be watched with d great deal of interest.
 Andy Browns pool hall and soft drink emporium will be, re-opened some time next week. A new room ing house is also to be started short ly and application will be made soon for daily mail service. Mineral \ Park is again rapidly assuming the aspect of a real live mining camp.
