Tits County Lies Directly in the nain Gold Delt that Begins 211 Alaska and Ends in Mexico. The following article is extracted from Governor ilurphj ;s annual report to the Secretary cf the Interior ana is un interesting presentation of facts re garding some of the mineral resources of Yuma county, and a description cf uvo of the richest gold mines; also something of the Castle Lome lead mines: KING OF ARIZONA. Tbs gold-bsaringproperty,knovn for a time as the Gleaon, lias been transferred to the Kins f Arizona Mining and Milling Company, a 001 poration organized und"r the laws of the Terri tory or Arizona, vith a capitalization of 5,(XW,iKKi shaves of a par value of Si each. This company owns four full cuims the Homestake, the lvisy cf Arizona, the Last Hope, and the Mucho Bueno. This district lies about thirty live miles due east of thd Castle Dome Land ing, on the Colorado River. It is north Oi the Gila River and about 40 miles from Mohawk Summit, on the Southern Pacillc Railroad This is the nearest station on the railway. There are several other locations besides those conveyed to the King of Arizona. The Homcstake location covers the chief workings tip to this date. There is on this claim a strong vein of gold-bearisg quartz. This lode or vein has three well-marked divisions or layers. On the hanging wall there is a soft layer froin 1 to 'i'A inches wide, which averages about $2,800 per ton ia value. Next below this there is a middle layer or body of quartz about 20 inches thick, which will average about Suo to 8100 per ton in value. The remainder of the vein, so far as it is exposed by the shaft, aver ages about $24 per ton. Test holes have been drilled 3 feet deep into the foot wall, and all are in ore- The shaft by which the exposure of the nature of the vein has been made is 200 feet deep and follows the dip of the hanging wall a distance of 40 feet easterly and 30reet westerly. These show a continuity of vein, having the same characters and values develop ed by the shaft. The hill rises rapidly both cast and west ot tiro shaft so that the height of backs on the lode above the drifts is greater than at the sharL At a point about 30 feet west of the haft and on a level with the collar of the shaft the vein has been crosscut from wall to wall, showing it 18 feet wide at that point. The ore in the crosscut is of about thes-aoie grade as that ia the shaft. The croppings of the vein may be followed for some 700 feet of the Home stake shaft 10 a second opening, known as "The King of Arizona Shaft." This shaft is about 50 Seet deep, and by means of drill holes the vein is shown to be 11 feet in width and has an aver age value of 810 per ton. At a point 300 feet cast of the Homestake shaft a tunnel has leen made which crosscuts the vein 160 feet below the sur face. At this point the hanging wall vein is 18 inches wide and has an average value of ?50 per ton. The tunnel then passes through 30 feet of vein matter running about 53 pei ton, thence Shrough 7 feet of ore carrying Sib per ton to the loot wail. The tc Un di.-.te from hanging wall to foot wall along this tunnel is 4u feet. A drift has been run aioug the toot wan to the Home stake shaft at a distance or 300 tect. and the average vaiue of the ore exposed is Si 1 per ton. FOarUXA MINE. In the early days of gold discovery of Califor nia, 1848, when the news reached the gold miners of Sonora, there was a general exodus of the able-bodied men who were able to get away northwest to the new El Dorado in California and the state cf Sonora contributed, many men to the mining population, 'ihey took the old road, which was known as the "camina real " from Estancia and Altar northwestward. n"a-ly parallel to the guif, following the mountain ridge known as the Gila range, just north of our present boundary. The road led to Yuma and few feet or yards of a very mcdist outcrop of quartz which no one seemed to consider of suf ficient value to merit any attention. That hum ble and Insignificant quartz outcrop Is todav the outcrop of the great Fortuna mine. Itis situated on the westward slope and nearl v at the base braiffsrange of mountains called on some of the old'maps the Gila Tango. This trends northwesterly and reaches ncarlv to the Gila river at the point now known as Blaisdell The railway in its course to Yuma nass"s around the northwest point of this range Where the rocks are exposed at that point they are mostly of homogeneous granite, of grav color and weathered out at the surfaces which however, are much pitted as if by decomposi tion of some soft substance. But beyond these low-lying hills of granite there are big outcrops of rock which to the experienced eve indicate stratified formations. They are indeed strati SSWSToV"8 W 0f thc ranee sward and southeastward is composed of regular stratified laminated, hard gncissic rock. I use thc word gneisslc" in a very general and comprehensive lense, for you can describe these rocks with much more accuracy if you localize them as mica slates and hornblendic slates, with inter polations of quartzitc beds, especially in the upper part of the series, with green stains, sup posed to be stains of copper and decomposition of copper ore, which they probably are al though there are pecrdiaritfes of color, and omc yellow colors, which Indicate to me the presence of some other mineral, possiblv tel lurium, which by its decomposition has 'given tnese colors. The fact remains, however tw the bullion from thc upper part of V& Jon tains more copper than it now contains in t& lower levels of the mine. The workings which have been carried on here have developed a condition of things which could not be foretold from an inspection of thc outcrop. The vein or lode appears to be a chimney, not a contino our ttxiv nor a continuous vein within eofly or chimney or chute upon it. As re marked the outcropping points indicate that trcbofVy!ryBreatl0nSitUdi11"1 extens5a ot v?m li rf kable first in this limited out SiiJ0?? in Its continuity fantepth. its con satisfactory rich and the promise it pives of n-ichmcnt by further veins dinntn into is on the foot-wall sides. airPn0 Some facts In regard to thc product or yield: Thc ore paid from the surface The product or ore extracted up to the time has been about 80 tons per day, which is sent to the 20-stamp mill each stamp of which crushes about 4 tons-irt every twenty-four hours. Thc extraction is chiefly and largely by power drills. A force or 80 men is employed by this mine and mill. The greater part or the labor underground and mining Is done by compressed air: "J"le Ibde, I was told, was 6 to 15 feet wide. This large space permits the use of power drills to great advantage. In the material hoisted there are fragments of the wall rocks, some of which are thrown out, but many pieces pass through' the mill. They would prerer to reject most of this wall rock, but It would take more time and ex pense than It does to mill it, and there is a chance of some of it containing gold. Prom these 80 tons of rock crushed daily the average product is perhaps 48,000 worth of gold per J.0"":10- ..Soe months they have produced as high as 590,000.

IU1 Dear- It is taught in the Koran that one of the tests for admission into Paradise is the passage of the needle's eye. The believer must pass between two rocks or pillars set so close together that if he has been eat ing to live he will easily pass the barrier.,' But if he has been living to eat he will inevitably be shut out by his grossness. S&QGESS AND THE STQIflJlGH The Koran only carries a step beyond the present, the applica tion of a rule of success which is emphasized every day in this life success is largely a waiter of stomach. From the positive side this would be rather a difficult ' proposition to prove, because the man whose stomach? is- sound hardly knows that he has a stom ach. But the relation between success and. the stomach is easily shown when tlie negative side of the proposition is considered. There are many men stopped on the highway to success. Some are total failures, some creep along and lead a Haiflife bati still. mast fail of realizing their largest ambitions Why do they fail ? ' Because the stomach has given out. Food is no longeirperfectly J digested amf assimilated. Inas much as the strength and vigor of the body are supported by the nour ishment derived from digested and assimilated food, the body becomes weak (for the vital forces are de pleted) as soon as the stomachand , allied organs fail" fn supplying adequate nutrition. Then comes, a total or partial breakdown of! . healthi ! If there is any one fact which more than another needs to be j impressed on the rising genera-1 tion, it is the relation of success to a sound stomachy It- seems a : splendid thing that a young man S; shall starve his way through col-; lege, that he shall sacrifice his bodily cravings to a desire for knowledge. But is it splendid 1 when-the boy. breaks down within sight of his goal or achieves his' diploma only to be obliged to give up his future and live the life of a ' valetudinarian ? 1 THE MAN WHO FAILED. y In the West the traveler comes J again anT again- on- some rudely clad, rough -handed man. He ' finds to his astonishment that the man is learned. He can talk! scientifically of the flora of his neighborhood, or of the geologic . formation of the land he tills. He has framed diplomas hanging.in.his home. What's he doing out here with his education and ability? He tells you that he broke down i after leaving college and went to j farming to recover his health It tooS-fiim so long that he lost his grip on the other life and stayed on the farm. That's the story of hundreds on farm and ranch in the wild west. Every physician knows that the: common cause of ill-health is to be found in a deranged or diseased stomach. He knows it and he acts on his knowledge. Whether the disease present is of heart, liver, lungs, kidneys or any other Mrs.' A. Flackus, of Dairy, Klamath Co., Oregon, writes: "With pleasure I write to you to let you know the great benefit I have received from your ' Golden Medical Discovery ' and self treatment at home. For over a year I suffered with pains in stomach, head ache, jrregulanty, constipation and in digestion. I had no appetite at all, and could not sleep. . So it went on for months, till one day I got dizzy, my organ, the first organ examined hrtef?Eeil beat as fast as it could and treated is the stomach. But the physician does not tell you this as a rule, though some times a physician of experfence will frankly recommend "Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discov ery," saj'ing that the cause of dis ease is in the stomach and the best medicine for the cure of dis eases of the stomach and other organs" of digestion and nutrition is "Golden Medical Discover." THE DOGTOR IS RIGHT. " Golden Medical Discovery " is the best medicine for the cure of diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. "I suffered for six years with con stipation and indigestion, daring which time I emnloved several nhvsieians. hut they could not reach my case," writes and I fell'' like fainting all the time. My heart beat 120 or 125 times in one minute. We went to the doctor ; he gave me medicine, but it did not make my trouble any better. I thought I had to die ; every night when I went to bed I feared I would not be alive in the morning". So I wrote to Dr. Pierce and he gave me his advice. I bought six bottles of Dr. Tierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and four vials of the 4 Pleas ant Pellets.' At first I thought the medicine did me no good, but I kept on taking the medicines as 3'ou advised, and when I had taken five bottles of the medicine I was so well that it seemed I did not need any more, but still I took the sixth bottle. I can say I was then perfectly well. The Tiead aches, pains in stomach, heart trouble and all left me. I have had a gocd appetite ever since and can sleep well and do all my work."
