EXTENT OF THE DISASTER.

The earthquake waves seem to have
followed the coast line all the way from
Alvah to Malasses and the whole terri
tory over which the great shocks ex-
tended was at times heaved simulta-
neOusly, and sensations similar to sea-
sickness were experienced by nearly
all the inhabitants. Those who
watched the sky noticed that the drift
ing clouds seemed at times to be ar
rested in their motion. Advices from
the interior indicate that the loss Of
life in that section may reach fouI
thousand souls and will certainly NUM-
Der fully three-quarters of that estf-
mate. The number of manned will be

Mr.. O. p. Bart reports that the
ore from the Rosa mine, taken by
him sometime ago to Socorro for
treatment went much higher than
he expected, and that tie result
was Of hemost satisfactory charac-
ter, and evidenced ~conclusively
that the mine will pay from grass
roots down. Mr.. Burt's efforts are
now being directed toward securing
concentrating works for this mine,
and hcthinks the parties with whom
he is interested in the ownership
will certainly put in such works in
the near future. If this should be
accomplished it would be OF great
benefit to the Bonito district, as
they are now in the situation of
having plenty of fine grade con
c%entrating ore, but with nc facilities
tor making the same profitable.
Practical mining men are fast com
ing to the conclusion that local
Shelters do not pay and that the
only true way to mine and mill
smelling ores successfully is the
way proposed TO be carried out BY
Mr.. Burt, that is concentrating
works, and then = shipment and
treatment of concentrates by large
smelling works, such as are now
in operation at Socorro. When
you reduce ten tons into one
you are reducing the cost Of treat
ment te a minimum.

Farmer Williams opened it. 1t was

it to her, for he was in bitter
mood. Mrs. Williams glanced re-
proachfully at her husband.
"God grant it may bring us as
much comfort she said, laying her
hand fondly upon the head that was
resting against her knee.
AS she opened it, she uttered an
exclamation of surprise. 1t was a
a deed of Red Stone Farmhouse made
out in her name. On the inside
wrapper were these words: "Inas-
much as We did it unto the least of
these, We did it unto me-"
There was grateful and happy
hearts beneath the roof of the old
homestead that night. Though with
Mrs. Williams joy there was min
gled an uneasy feeling. She was
well assured that it was in some way
connected with Arthur, and trem-
bled with apprehension lest some
one should appear who had strong
er claim to him. This fear was dis
sipated the next morning 10y letter
that came to her by the first mail.
1t contained check for five thou :.
sand dollars, together with these
words:
1.-The boy that you so generously
received ten years ago, and have so
tenderly cherished since, will never,
never be taken from you. The

babe, dearer to her than life, is in

To this singular letter there was
neither date nor signature. There
was various coDjectures in regard to
the stranger, who had been in the
village some days, and from whom
it was evident this letter came, as
well as the package received the
night before.
But when Arthur recalled to mind
the sad, remorseful tenderness with
which he had regarded him, he felt
that it must have been his father.
Yet, he often said as he looked
into the face of his adopted moth
er, that he wanted no dearer friends
than those he had already.
AS for Mrs. Williams, among all
the blessings that surrond her, there
was no one that brought purer Joy
