LEASFRS HAVE START ED WORK ON WHITE
 HILLS PROPERTY

Three leases have been let on the property of the White Hills Mining company this week, the miners going out and starting work. One of the leasers discovered block of ore on his ground that gave an average as. say of $1O6 in gold and silver. This block of ground will furnish consid- erable ore for shipment without much development.
 The porperty is now being surveyed and blocks of ground laid out by J. s. Bagg and corps of surveyors. In running through the various openings in the G. A. R. and other mines in the north part f the group MT. Bagg discovered ore that ran above $160 to the ton in gold and silver. The shaft of the G. A. R. is being repaired and unwatered, several men being engaged in this work. It is from this shaft that water for the camp will be taken, it being the best water in that section of the district.
 A boarding house has been opened and soon accommodations found in any mining camp may be had there. It is probable that within a very short time many leasers will be at work on the mines and the company will be work ing quite force on the Occident and Norma. These properties are expect ed to furnish sufficient ore for the big mill. The mill can be put in shape for immediate use, there being prac- tically no repairs necessary.
 The mines are situated only short distance below the proposed damsite at Boulder Canyon, from which dam power will later be obtained for all necessary purposes in the new field. It is about 80 miles distant from Kingman.

TAKE OVER HONESTAKE
 MINE OPP0. KATHERINE

James Cashman and associates have taken over the old Homestake mines, on the west side of the Colorado river from the Katherine mine. This mine was owned at one time by Boston peo- pie, Tom Ewing having induced them to purchase the property and erect a 2O-stamp mill. Like the abandonment of the Sheeptrail, the Boston people gave up the Homestake and the mill was removed to some other locality. Searchlight people relocated the mines and are now at work on the outside claims completing the title work.
 It is believed that good ore exists in this group and that development will bring in the same mineralized condition nj the mines that has been found in the Katherine.

.BORAX MINES SOUTH
 OF ST. THOMAS TAKEN
 OVER BY THORKELDSON

Thomas Thorkeldsen, one of the big borax and manganese operators of the coast, has secured the recently discov- cred borax mines south of St. Thomas, Nevada. These properties are in the canyon leading down from the main St. Thomas-Las Vegas wagon road and not far from the big gyp caves. Those who have seen the find claim that it is one of the most important borax discoveries made in the United States in recent years, rivaling to some extent the big beds recently opened in Sonora, Mexico. MT. Thorkeldsen will at once begin the ac- tive development of the properties and will put in a substantial road from the mines to the Salt Lake branch some distance west of St. Thomas, the greater part f the wagon haul being down hill. The ores esxposed are pure borate, containing practically no clays or other deleterious matter.
 The mining of borax has made many millionaires on the Pacific coast and it is just as important in the mining and commercial world today as it was thirty years ago, its uses becoming more diversified year by year until it is now indispensable in every house. hold.

STRIKE REPORTED IN
 OLD GARTER MINE

A reported strike comes from the old Carter mine, to the south. of the Copper Giant, two men having gone in there with mineral ore finder and having located an ore body on the summit of the hills above the old workings. The finder is said to have doped the way to two ore bodies on the claim, one in the bottom of the old shaft and the other close to the surface. After sinking five feet on the vein the men opened a body of ore that runs about 5000 in gold. Just what kind of an ore finder was used other than luck and work has not been disclosed, but it is said that the men knew nothing of ore or mining, but such are the fellows that usually get into a field and make the finds. The fellow that knows just where the ore is usually hunts where it is not and comes in after the desirable ground is taken.
 The old Carter mine produced some excellent gold ore and it is probable that much of the same high grade will be taken out in further development. The mines are the property of Gus Holmes, of Los Angeles. The proper ty just now is under the trusteeship of E. A. Shaw and leases have been let to men who are now operating it.

GOLD SPECIMENS FROM
 UNION PASS SECTION

Beautiful specimens of gold ore were exhibited on the streets of King man the past few days that came from the properties of Alonzo Terra, sit uated in the Union Pass section. The properties were operated a few days ago, a small mill having been built and operated for a short time. The mass of vein matter carries fairly good grade of mill ore, but the mill in use was not of sufficient capacity to handle this class of ore successful ly. Small streaks in the vein carry wonderfully rich gold ore, which would sweeten the large vein consid- erably if the whole mass was milled. We believe this property would prove up well under development.

SINKING MAIN SHAFT
 GOLD ORE TO 700

The Gold Ore, at Goldroad, has put on three shifts of miners and is now sinking the main shaft to the 700 level, from which point a crosscut will be driven to the vein and the mine opened laterally. It is expected that the high grade shoot opened in the level above will be reached within a short time. Joe Onetto has charge of operations and expects to push work with all possible speed. MT. Onetto has larger knowledge of ore deposition in the Goldroad field than any man in the business and we feel that under his direction big produc- CT will be brought in by the Gold Ore company.

NEVADA ENGINEER IN
 UNION PASS SECTION

A. w. Degenhart, a Nevada engi- neer of prominence, is in Mohave county looking over some properties in the Union Pass section for San Francisco clients.
 MT. Degenhart had very little to say concerning his activities, but we believe that they are indicative of further activity in the Union Pass country.
 MT. Degenhart has handled proper ties in Nevada for years and was prominent at Tonopah and other Nev- ada camps.
 Mohave County has always welcom- ed San Francisco-Nevada capital, and it appears to be now on the way.

RICO 0PT|ONED TO
 SAN FRANCISCO MEN

Amining deal of unusual interest was consumated this week, when the Rico rpperty, adjoining the c. O. D. on the west, was optioned to l. c. Bateman and some San Francisco as sociates for a large sum. The Rico has been long considered one of the most promising silver properties in the Stockton Hill district and is immed- lately in the strike of the big c. O. D. ledge. MT. Bateman announces that vigorous campaign of development will be immediately inaugurated in the hopes of picking up the big rich ore shoot on which the c. O. D. is now working.

Real Work

Old Hilton had strong ideas on many things, and never hesitated to voice them. One day he was accosted by healthy looking individual who begged for a copper to buy food.
 Hilton eyed the man sternly.
 "Why do you waste your time beg ging?" he said, coldly. "You ought to be working"
 The suppliant drew himself erect.
 "Have you ever begged?" he de- manded in return.
 "Of course not!" snapped old Hil- ton, angrily.
 "Then you don't know what work is" the beggar retorted.-London Tit-Bits.
