ARich Return.

In January last Mir. A. A. Abbott Of Sacramento, California, took hold of the old Santa Rosalia mine, in the Arizpe district of Sonora, about ff- teen miles west of the town of ArIzpe. This was an old abandoned mine, said to have been worked by the Spaniards POO years or more ago. There is a tradition extant in the dis trict that it was one Of the crown mines of Spain. The tradition is prob ably founded in fact, but now impos- siblc Of veriication as all the records of the district were destroyed with the town of Arizpe by the Indians early in the present century. lt Is stated that there was printed in France, about the year 1920, a pamph- let descriptive of the santa Rosalia mine which verified the assertion that during the period in which it was worked by the Spaniards it had yielded one hundred million francs in gold about s2S, ,000G00.
 When he took the mine Mr. Abbott found a deep open cut from which the ledge had been gouged by the carly workers. He found also an old tunnel, about three hundred feet in length leading iato this cut He cleaned out this tunnel, and therein, sunk twenty feet from the cut he sunk a shaft q depth Of lO0 feet He then drifted t0 the ledge and cut 1t about thirty feet below the old workings His efforts were rewarded by finding large body of very rich gold ore In a very few days he took out, along the hanging wall of the ledge, twelve tons of the ore, which runs sl, 800 per ton in gold, or S2l 600, This lot of ore he shipped to California for reduction, and the car carrying it passed Nogales this week
 The richest ore lies along the hane- ing wall, which is on the side from which the ledge was cut: but beyond this streak of very rich ore there is q large body Of very good gold ore which will pay very handsomely. At ono point he sent drift into this ore body twelve feet, and all the way it was ir good gold ore, with ore as good yet ir tho face.
 That there are yet in Sonora many such opportunities is a well knowr fact. All they need is the application of enterprise and capital such as MT Abbott has given the Santa Rosalia.

TIE attempt to break Tom Catron, the great republican leader of New Mexico, has proved dismal failure. The democratic justices of the terri lorial supreme court, save two were fair minded and, after giving the matter careful hearing, threw out the case. The chief justice and one associate, shows up in very poor hght. They were plainly moved by personal spite:

SECRETARY GRESHAM.

Hon. Walter Z. Gresham, secretary Of
state, died suddenly ut Washington early
Tuesday morning. Mr.. Gresham has
been i'll for several weeks, but his physi-
clans foreboded no serious consequences

years of age. He was native Of Indiana
"a self-made man. Mr.. Gresham serv-
cd with distinction in the war of the
rebellion, entering the service as lieu
tenant-colonel Of an Indiana regiment,
and graduating as brigadier-general with
honorable wounds received Ia the fight
ing before Atlanta-commemora by
his being brevetted major general. AZ
ter the war Gen. Gresham resumed the
practice Of law at New Albany, Indiana.
His congressional aspirations were de-
feated in a Republican convention in
1866. President Grant nominated him
to be L. S. District Judge in Indiana in
1869. In 1850, Judge Gresham's sena-
torial ambitions were arrested by legis-
tative defeat. In 1882, Judge Gresham
was appointed Postmaster General by
President Arthur, and on Mr.. Folger's
death, Gresham was transferred to the
Treasury portfolio. In 1887, Judge
Gresham was appointed judge of the 9TH
Judicial District. Mr.. Gresham was one
of the lesser candidates for the presiden-
tial nomination before two Republican
but In 1899 his views had
become so modified that he supported
Cleveland, and was by him appointed
secretary Of state on the formation Of
his cabinet In March, 1893. Secretary
administration of the state
has been the object of severe
criticism by his political opponents, but
he will be remembered as q
man Of vigorous intellect and high per-
sOnal character.
