George Sarrick brought in some vory rich copper ore this week, from a recent find on the south bank of the Gila river, 23 miles east of Florence. The ore is found in an ashy deposit, similar to that of the rich Innes strike, on Mineral Creek. Samples of the ore can be seen at this office. A cut has been run across the deposit for 13 feet, its lowest depth being 12 feel, with no walls. The location was made on tb 12th of last month, and from present indications it is a big property too big, in fact, for the locator to handle, and he would be glad to give some responsible party a working bond.

Being immediately on the bank of the river, the facilities for working it cheaply by water power are all that could be desired. The proposition is well worth investigation. For further particulars apply at this office. C. C.

HOW MINES ARE SOLD. A Profitable Manner of Bringing Prospects to the Front. Latest from Mineral Creek. From the Globe Times.) Since the shaft on the Iunes ground was thoroughly retimbered, sinking was continued and the latest reports say that the ore in the bottom of the shaft is showia better than ever. To date, the ledge is crossed for a width of sixty feet with 120 feet depth.

Mr. Hopkins, of the Arizona Copper company, a partner of Mr. Innes, has been on the ground since last Saturday. Mr. Hill, general manager of the Globe Mineral Exploration company, has left Mineral Creek and gone to England.

This firm at one time owned a large interest in the Bisbea mines, and there are many other mining interests held by the same firm, who advanced money to help along, but bad management compelled the house to take these interests. We are glad to hear of L. Zeckendorf Co. realizing on an investment that has taken so many years to demonstrate its value. D.

Bisbee Orb. (From the Tucson Citizen. The Pride of the West mine has been sold to Denver parties for $150,000 and it will be extensively worked by the new owners. T. A.

Snyder has just returned from a visit to Washington camp, where the Pride of the West is located. Speaking of that mine to a Citizen reporter he said that there was an illustration in the sale of the mine of the value of developing mines and shipping the ores. "The Pride of the West," said he, "was sold by certificates received from shipments made to the Silver City reduction company. It was the fact that Mr. Chapin shipped his ore and increased those shipments with gradual regularity that attracted attention to his mine.

From a mine which was rated at $40,000 it was sold a short time after shipping was begun for $150,000. I believe there is a great deal in this for mining men to think about. A mine will eeU quicker which has a shipping record than one which has produced nothing but a dump of ore whose value is ascertained only by assay. Iu the returns received from tt smelter the mine owner has a complete record of his success or failure, and the man who comes to buy the mine finds substantial evidence of the mine's worth in these returns. "I believe," he continued, "that the Pride of the West will become a great producer.

The shipments at the start will be increased to 1,000 ton a month. The ores run well in copper and carry gold and silver values also. The mine was the property of N. II. Chapin, who now retains the extension of the propjrty which he sold to the Denver capitalists.

This property he calls the Smuggler, and in it he has a mine which is as promising as the Pride of the West was when it had no more work done than has the Smuggler. I think that the output of this mine will equal the Pride of the West when it is developed." lOlliilllOM Italy annually produces 70,000,000 gallons of olive oil, the market value of which is $120,000,000.
