 to drive through this ore that the drift is now being carried out. As soon as this work is done sinking will be again under way toward the objec- tive at the 700 level, whence the drift will be carried off to below the main shaft and connection carried up. The main shaft will then be used to fur ther the development of the mine at the new level and later used as the work shaft through which all ores will be brought to the mill. This shaft is ideally situated, being on the high point above the proposed mill site and close to the ore bodies.
 R.L. Dimmick, who has carried on all the development in the mine, has done great work with the small force of miners employed during the past l flew years, bringing to light the great eSt~body of gold ore ever opened on the coast. The work is well done, and wRen the stopes are opened mining of the ore bodies can be carried on at the lowest possible costs.

INSTALLING CHEMICAL LA
 BORATORY IN K|NCMAN

H. G. Setz is finishing a building over in the Richards addition in which he will install a chemical laboratory for the investigation of various minerals and materials that may be found in this county. The plant is not intended for the purpose of treating any of the substances that may be submitted, but merely for experiment tation. A laboratory to delve into the various possibly commercial sub stances which abound in this county might bring to light important devel- opments in various salts and acids that are known to exist in portions of the county, especially fertilizing ma terials. These materials are being sought after throughout the desert regions and with considerable success. To the north of Kingman is an enor- nous territory covered with sodiums, gypsum and borates, and it is possi- ble that contiguous sections may be made to give up potash and nitrates. Only through intensive prospecting and investigations may these metals and non-metals be brought into com mercial use,

 in the new mill. Failure to carry de- velopment to a proper stage resulted in the shutting down of the mine and mill some months ago, at which time considerable litigation initiated against further development. That the mine is one of the great properties of the state is we'll known and that it will soon be in a productive stage is the belief of the management.
 While here Mr. Holmes will also straighten out the affairs of the Key stone mine, which property is one of the important mining propositions of the Mineral Park section. If settle ment is effected operations on that property will soon be under way.

 with all of the solo numbers. This as we'll as the old solo numbers that followed was good. Joe Senz sang, "Tuck Me to Sleep in My Old Ken lucky Home", after which Mrs. L. H. Parker sang that pretty song, "Just Been Wandering All Day Long,. Murray Carrow's song was chosen for him before the management had de- cided to put him in blackface but his rendition of My Carolina Rose", with out the negro dialect was none the less entertaining. Ned Mccarthy put over Everybody Calls Me Honey", in professional style, followed by Ed. Hoerst's, "The Night Wind". Mrs. Aubrey Simms made hit with her song, Beautiful Annabel Lee", d pretty song, well rendered. Then came Pat Mccarthy with, "Let Me Down Easy, which she acted out in clever manner, being supported in the chorus by Ted Carter, E. L. Baum gardner and Ned Mccarthy. Ted Car ter, who acted as irtcI,ccUtcr, closed the song numbers with, Honolulu Honey.
 Between the blackface members of the circle, Joe Senz, H. L. Horner, Murray Carrow, Art Hawkins, George Andrews, Frank Casson and the Nc Carthy Sisters amused the audience with their jokes and funny stunts. Hawkins sang the Billboard Song", with some innovations that brought a laugh.
 In the Olio, two little girls, Jones and Cohenour, followed the Mccarthy Sisters in their song and dance num- Der with, Second Hand Rose". Though it was the first time these young ladies had appeared on the stage they did well.
 Andrews and Davis had the third act with a blackface sketch, which got over strong. Barney Google", as he is familiarly known does coon part like it was second nature.
 1 Two girls, Ferguson and Parker, costumed like the Gold Dust Twins put over cakewalk for the Fourth Act that would have put real pick innies to shame.
 Helen Pope, in pantomine, "The Snow-Bird", portraying a dope-fiend, did some very clever acting, though the act was not at first understood by all of the audience.
 Then came tn eclosing act, "Ned and Her Beau", previously mentioned in this article.
 The show was big hit and every person in the audience seemed to feel that he had more than their moneys worth. The house was packed to over- flow, box office going better than $500, which is record breaker for 75 cent show, in Kingman.
 The show will probably be taken to Oatman and Needles. Ted Carter, who directed the show, now being in Oatlnan trying to make arrangements to put it on there a week from Sat- urday night. They will try to show in Needles week later, the Fist of the month. After that they will re- peat the show here as there were many King1nan people who did not have the opportunity of seeing it and others who wish to see it again.
 Following the minstrel show a New Years Eve dance was put on at the Elks Hall. At exactly midnight Ted Carter, made up as Father Time and Alta Hunts little boy, all decked up in a silk sash, walked across the stage and the crowd broke forth into the spirit of the evening. New Years Eve was, ushered in right.
