'This is indeed a pleasure, Miss
Massey; but if had known that
Helen's time was so occupied l would
not have troubled you"
Celia noticed that his feelings were
hurt by the way Helen had trcatej
! him.
"We're glad to have you, Mr.. Bing-
ford, Come, let's sit here on the
porch and maybe Helen will be in in
Il few minutes" Celia said soothingly
as she drew the young man out on
the side porch. Tom wanted to stay,
but he felt as if he was intruding. He
was soon at home, though, talking
to Celia as if he had known her all
his life, about the hard times he had
had at college, the obstacles he had
mad to overcome after he had finished,
until finally, only a few days before
he had gotten the contract to build
huge bridge in South America.

Celia, smilingly.
"Say, I'd love to come tonight, but
you needn't say it's to see her."
"About eight" called out Celia,
laughingly, as she disappeared in the
doorway.
Mr.. and Mrs. Massey were sitting
on their side porch. a year later dis
cussing recent events.
Jim, do you believe our little girl
will be happy?

"Oh yes, Jim. If Celia's happi-
ness would only be like ours, should

other dearly"

NEW CORPORATION
 TAKING OVER THE
 OLD PAYROLL MINE

A corporation to take over the Pay Roll Mine, at Chloride, has just been organized under the laws. of the state of Delaware, with a capitalization of two million fifty cent shares. Pitts burg, Pa., people are at the back of the enterprise and we believe that they will surely put it on a success full footing.
 The Pay Roll mine was one of the early lead-silver producing properties of the Wallapai, mining district, and has been developed to a depth of 600 feet. A tunnel was carried in on the vein from a point near the Marybelle claim, several hundred feet and a good body of ore opened. Near the portal of this tunnel fine body of ore run ming $50 in gold, besides other metals, was opened, several carloads being shipped to the smelters by the late Patsy F. Collins and others. Later the property was taken over by Colin Timmons and Ferd Nellis for eastern people and the shaft sunk outside of | the vein to depth of 200 feet. These

MT. Bell reports that the compressor is in place and the new drilling plant will be in commission this week. With this plant of machinery the. company ex- poets to drive the tunnel from the present breast into the other veins far ther up the mountain, where great depth will be obtained. The other veins are all large ore bearers and it is to be expected that ore bodies of magnitude will be opened.
 The new milling plant will soon be in commission, also, and the mine at once put on a basis of production The tests made on the ores show a big recovery, and with the production of the mine far in excess of the mill capacity it will be but short time un- til an additional unit will have to be put in. This new unit, it is believed will be put in at the portal of deep CT tunnel, through which the entire group of mines will be operated. The veins are all high up on the mountain side and are susceptible of deep pene- tration.

WORKING ON THE
 SILVER MONSTER

James Bone, owner of the Silver Monster and other mining property at Stockton Hill, has been in Kingman the past several days, having come in to attend to business affairs. The property on which he has been at work has potential showings of ore and with a tunnel reaching in from the canyon above the old Alpha mine it should be sin position to produce largely of very high grade shipping ore, as we'll as a large production of mill ores. Some years ago the writer tried out the ores from the Silver Monster, and obtained splendid re
 suits. The concentrates carried val ues of $150 gold and about 100 ounces silver. The product was heavy in iror and samples submitted to the smel
 ters brought favorable smelting terms

Callaghan, Ira M. George and Henry M. Crowthers, of which the last named party is chairman and manager. This mining enterprise is now largely owned by Pittsburgh in vestors resulting from purchases of treasury stock under options including the total shares in the treasury, and this syndicate includes a number of the largest steel, iron, coke and manu- featuring operators, as we'll as prom inent banking interests in the Pitts burgh district.

GOOD PROGRESS AT
 K|NCMAN CON,

Arizona-Butte Mines Company was formally taken over by the Kingman Consolidated Mines Company on April first, and all the operations, accounts and affairs, will, in the future be handled under the succeeding corpora tion, the change being passed upon by the stockholders of the old company and formally approved by the Arizona Corporation Commission.
 A new boarding house and also two bungalow-type houses, with rooms to accommodate the tunnel crews, are un- der construction and will be rushed to completion. The present boarding house at the Banner mine will also be operated, but as the boarding house is mile away and 1000 feet higher than the deep tunnel, it necessitated a new camp for the tunnel.
 The deep tunnel is now electrically lighted throughout as is the power house and the tunnel camp. A new ventilating fan has recently been in rstalled at the tunnel, as well as a stable for tunnel mules.
 A new two stage air compressor of larger size than the present tunnel machine will be installed and the small compressor now at the tunnel will be removed to the Banner mine and in stalled at the intersection shaft, to- gether with the compressor now run from the mill engine, which will be moved to the shaft power house, and these two compressors will be run by individual electric motors as soon as electric equipment in installed.
 The transformer plant has been ordered to use the power of the Desert Power and Water CO.,, whose trans mission lines pass over the company's mining ground for over two miles.
 The present mill of the company will be remodled and also will be el- ectrically driven.
 The repair work on 330 level of the 1 Banner mine section of the estate is going on with the object of putting this level in production for mill ore later on.
 From the 330 level near the inter- section shaft an 800 foot drift will be driven on the Prince George vein to develop the Clearing House ore chute (which adjoins the De La Fontaine ore zone on the same vein. This develop ment will afford nearly 400 fit. of backs and is expected to add to milling ore output for the Banner mill oper- i ation in the future.
 The stope maps of the Banner mine indicate about 10000 tons of $25 mill ore available above the 330 level, in the area now developed. The 43C level has but 400 feet of drifts on veins, all of which show good values and should, when fully opened up afford large tonnage, as the ore shoot on 165 level is opened up fo1 150 feet in length. From the old stopes above the 165 foot or mill tun- nel level the Arizona-Butte company has produced 5000 tons of $40. to $Ss ore, (smelter value) much of which was produced at considerably lower metal prices than now obtain, and these StopeS were considered worked
