be gotten at in any way nj the present
time rs many are known to have
wandered away in the intense excite

PREMISE Several bodies were taken
out Of some Of the rooms and halls,
and several persons, when gotten out
into the halls, would seem determined
to return TO the flames. One room,
occupied by two, was broken IN and
while one was dragged out, the other
was determined to remain in his warm
bed, and when dragged out insisted ON
waiting TO be dressed. At some windows
there were three or four men begging to
be saved from death while flames were
bursting from the adjoining windows.
One was dragged through u half open

JUSTICE MILLER has restored the

stockholders. This decision Is impor-
tant In connection with u grand scheme
Of railroad consolidation. The extern.
sion Is already partly arranged by the
parties controlling the line Of railroad
named. The Missouri, Kansas & Tex.
as extends from Kansas City and ST.
Louis through the Indian Territory to
Dennison, Texas, at which point 1t has
connections to Austin, San Antonio
and Galveston, on the Gulf Of Mexico.
The necessary arrangements have been
partly made to consolidate with the
Missouri, Kansas & Texas, the Missouri
Pacific, Texas Pacific and the various
branches or feeders which would carry
the consolidated line TO the Gulf of
Mexico and the Rio Grande on the
south and 1.-THE Pacific Ocean on the
west, and TO continue the line to the
City Of Mexico. This Is Jay Gould's
scheme, and Its successful accomplish
ment would include in the combination

The Jesuits during the time they enjoyed prestige in So- nora and the old Intendentes re- ceived accounts of said deposits, which have been found in the archieves of the city of Arispe, as also the Information remitted to the viceroys. Figuring in this class of ancient documents is the autograph description by Padre Alvarado respecting the mineral districts which he visited and in. vestigated in five different jour- neys, made during his residence in the missions of the frontier of Sonora. Padre Alvarado was a Spaniard, who had been in the mineral districts of Guanaianto, and from that city left for the missions situated on the frontier of Sonora.
 From the mission of Calabasas, forty leagues from the River Gila, he made the first journey, dedicating himself to the conver- sion of the Indians. He was well received by them, owing to his excellent temper and familiar mode of treating them. The In dians whom he visited gave him the name of "Great Father" and the Chiefs furnished him with faithful guides in his journeys. In his second journey he proceed ed further north to river called "El Verde," where on the right bank he discovered, hv a mere accident the first placer gold. large particles Of that metal being seen in several parts of the sur face. This casual discovery and the mineral district which he Lad partially investigated in the previous journey, gave Padre Al
 varada the idea that the whole country was rich in mineral, and

Science has given us very much more satisfactory information as to space than to time We have first the size of our own earth to use as a basis of measuring the planets around us. To get an idea how this is accomplished, picture the earth as a globe one inch in diameter, the sun three yards in diameter, and the distance be- tween the two 300 yards. This will convey 3 much better idea of the difference in size between the earth and the sun than fl we dealt in the stupendous figures which are actually correct Prom this diminutive sphere astrouO- meC5 have to survey the-sun and 'he whole solar systems and it

] weight of circumstances, but also l of many which have been found land are unexplored. Alvarado
 occupied his attention more par
 ticuIarly in this kind of mineral Plata-and from his notes may be deduced the silver district called
 "EOs Graseros," situated on the right bank of the River Gila, fahounding in rich silver ore i adapted for smelling, the hither
 one yielding IS mars to the cargo
 of 300 pounds. It appears that
 the exploration of tn ese mines
 was paralyzed by a sudden attack from the savages who destroyed
 the colony of miners, at the time
 when they had. incre ased to con- siderable numbers, In the third
 excursion of Alvarado he ad-
 vanced to the headWater5 of the Gila and on the banks of the river "San Carlos" he was joined by a Spaniard, a deserter, who informed him that at distance of three days journey from the rancheria, on the San Carlos, was a prOmOntOry of metallic rock which gave demonstration of great richness, because hy placing the rock on the fire the silver ran out with great facility. Alvarado examined the promontory and found it to be of a richness which he confessed never to have seen in "Guanajanto."
 Padre AIvarado assayed more than two hundred veins and per- sOnally inspected as many as sixty lodes in different places, five of which, in his opinion, when they should he opened and worked, 1 would be capable of maintaining and supporting several large ] towns.
 AIvarado regarded Alta Sonora not only as d great mineral ceUn- try but wei adapted toagricuiture 1 and the raising of stock, and even 1 proposed or concieved the idea of l creating d province under the name of |" Fl Moqui," with the 1 boundaries: the river Gila on the l Sonora side, the Sierra Madre in 1 New Mexico and the rivers Colo radO and "Virgen" on the part of | California. To this effect he con- suited with the missionary min iSterS of the frontier and resolved | to go to Spain and place the mat | ter before the Court of Mrdrid, l but he died on the transit in the | pueblo of ''Nio," eight l leagues from Sinaloa, where his repose in a small Jesuit | chapel, at the present date in 1 ruins, being the only vestige of | that ancient town.
