mine, distance of twelve miles, at an
expense of ST., 600
Last winter we saw at Saltillo, and
this summer in this city samples of
silver lead and copper ore that was
brought from the LaVentura mines
that assayed several hundred dollars
to the ton. The company will ship
samples of ores from those mines to
the World fair at Chicago in 1898.
Major Jules A. Randle informed us
that the Rosario mining company are
talking about erecting smelter at
the Salinas station on The line of the
Mexican National railway. They
also propose to build tramway from
the station to the mines, which is on
ly about five miles away.

One of the most remarkable cures
hat we ever heard of was that of
Capt. j. M. Lees son, of Houston,
which took place at the springs this
week. Capt. Lee read our letter dis
criptive of the Topo Chico hot springs
and as his son, q boy of about eight
years old, has been an invalid for
several mon this from rheumatism; he
could not stand on his feet, much less
walk. His father, mother, sister and
grandmother arrived at Topo Chico
Monday morning, and his father had
to carry him to the hotel. In the
afternoon he took his first bath, the
other on Tuesday, and when we seen
him last at IL o'clock that morning
he could not walk step Wednesday
morning he took another bath, and in
the afternoon they took him in to the
city of Monterey to witness the cele-
bratIon and at 8 p. m. we saw him
running around on the plaza. This
morning we met his father and he In
formed us that when he left the
springs his boy was running around.
Such rapid cure is unheard of IN the
history of hot springs. EDMOND.
