The city Of Durango, in Mexico,
has hill In Its vicinity that is al.
most pure iron. 1t is two miles
long, one mile wide and 700 feet
high. On its surface, uncovered
and visible, are, according to es.i-
mate, two hundred millions of tons
of iron ready to be placed in the
smelling ovens that 1t is proposed
to put up at the foot Of the hill. A
large part OF the ore yields from 70
to 80 per cent. pure metal, and 10

near future.or even cast those cities
of iron and fame entirely into the
shade.-ArIzono Citizen.
