HILDA GOES TO JAIL.
The Thompson Woman Declared to
Be Practically Sane.

DC sane
Hilda Thompson, the young woman
who narrowly escaped asphyxiation at
the Windsor hotel last winter, ap-
peared in the probate court yesterday
afternoon to be examined as to her
sanity. The physicians came to the
conclusion that the girls mental con-
dition was not such as to warrant
committing her to the asylum Judge
Willrich directed that Hilda be taken
back to the city hospital, where she
has been under treatment since her
removal from the Windsor hotel last
January. But Hilda emphatically re-
fused to return to the city hospital, in
spite Of all the persuasion that could
be brought to bear upon her. She said
she would rather go to the county jail.
Accordingly, she was taken over there
and placed in charge of the matron for
day or two to await developments.
H1lda says she has relatives in Mel
rose, Stearns county, but that they
have treated her cruelty She came to
st. Paul last winter and put up at the
windsor hotel. The same night she
was found In an unconscious condition
III her room, which was filled with
escaping gas, and was rescued Just in
time to save her life
Judge Willrich disagrees with the
physicians, who pronounced the girl
Sane.

RAISED CROSSING GATES.
George Thompson, Aged Is, Charged
With That.

George Thompson, thirteen years old,
living at SO Hubert street, was arrested
yesterday after Don y PatrClman Han
ley, on a charge of disorderly conduct.
Thompson, according to the story of the
officer, raised the gates at the Fillmore
avenue crossing of the Great Western
road and allowed a team to cross
while a switch engine was passing the
street Young Thompson denied this,
and said Charles Baer, who drives
dirt wagon for the city, called to him
to raise the gates and allow him to
pass. The engine, Thompson said, was
about block away and going from
instead Of toward the crossing. The
case was continued until this morning

LOOKING FOR AN UNCLE.
story of a Man Supposed to BE q
Sneak Thief.

A we'll dressed young man was found
inspecting the dresser in a room at the
residence of A. Messer, SO Mackubin
street, shortly after noon yesterday. A
member Of the family happened up
stairs and saw the young man stand
ing in front of bureau in one of the
bedrooms. This was something of a
shock but the fellow explained that
he was looking for his uncle This was
considered rather a thin excuse, and
the police were telephoned to and re-
quested to send an officer The young
man who was in search Of his uncle
did not wait even a few seconds after
hearing the order telephoned, but
walked rapidly down the street. Moth
ing valuable was missed from the
house, although this is probably ex-
planned by the presence Of the young
man being discovered almost as soon
as he had entered. The fellow was de-
scribed to the police as tall, well
dressed, dark complexioned, smooth
face and about twenty-one years old.

by distance and other variable cen
ditions.
The only limitations to the absolute
ownership of mines is an obligation
to pay an annual tax to the Federal
Government of SO per annum on
each claim, payable every four months.
If this is not paid promptly, maxi
mum extention of three months is
granted on payment of fines of %, so
and 100 per cent. additional for each
month respectively, and a complete
failure is he'd to be an abandonment
of the property, which then reverts to
the public domain.
The state government collects a
maximum tax OF 2 per cent. on the
gross product of minez (Which can be
avoided by letting them lie idle) and
Sc per $1,000 On the assessed value
of improvements. The assessment is
made by an official expert appointed
for each district, and is usually very
fair to mine owners.

Mexican Mining Code.

AS the mining code of Mexico diff
fers materially from our own, we pre-
sent, for the information of our read
ers, the folio wing summary of its re-
quiremenUs with respect to the loca-
tion and possession of mines.
Under the present law, any person,
foreigner or citizen, can locate as
many claims, or ''pertenencias, as
they are called. as he feels able to
handle, each claim being 100 metres
square, provided however, that no
foreigner can locate mines within the
Free Zone, or a distance of ffty-twe
miles from the boundary line, without
first obtaining special permission from
the government of Mexico.
Having made his locations, he pre-
sents petition to the mining agent of
the di:trict in which they are situated,
asking that they be adjudged to him
in accordance with the provisions of
the law. The fees for registry, publ
cation, stamps, etc, should not exceed
$1,000 bit are generally thrice this
amount, the Official sc'leI eIule being ad-
justeI to suit the climate. If the
petition Is admitte I, as it usually is
upon payment of the fees, it is regu
larry flel for registry, and within
three days thereafter, an order of sur
vey is Issued.
Theoretically any competent eagi-
nee: can be- 5ele;tel to make the aur-
vey, but as the question OF competency
might evoke complications, it is better
to accept the party recommended by
the district IL gent. When the survej
is returned, the agent makes an ex-
tract from the registry and causes it
to BE- Published in the official paper of
the st tte, citing adverse claimants to
appear and sho caus :, as in the case
CT U. 5 patents.
At the end OF four months, it is

Work, a transcript of all proceedings,

The anti silver legislation in the
United States has given a wonderful
impetus to all Mexican industries, es-
pecially that of mining. The prices of
labor and local products, which enter
SO heavily into the Grst cost, have not
advanced in TIE last few years; the
laboring classes are docile and strikes
and riots are comparatively unknown;
their wants are limited and easily salts
fled and they appear 80 thrive without
the assistance of labor organization. If
their employers are not satisfactory to
them, they simply move on; the idea of
revolutionizing the government because
matters do not come their way has not
yet occurred to them
This condition, and the permanent
peace esta blished by President Diaz,
have made Mexico a favorite field for
investors, and the state OF Sonora has
received il large share of their atten-
ton
a dredging company is now seeking
to recover gold from the bed of the
Yaqui river, another company has be-
gun to work the Iich placers of La
Brisca and Santo Domingo on an ex-

full of such enterprises, the greatest is
expected from the recent acquisition of
the Nacosari copper mines by the Cop
per Queen Co. of Bisbee, Arizona.
These mines are 100 miles due south
fro.l Disbee, and it is the company's
intention to extend the Bisbee line of

Interesting, Important and VAL

Extracts From the Story of the Line

Hiizinger.
IBY GEO. HILZINGER.I

The source of information is mat
ter of supreme Importance, and
realizing this, we endeavor to give our
readers the benefit of the purest and
the best. Merchants are, generally,
more interested in the results of bust
ness tkan in its origin, and cannot be
depended upon fer views on subjects
with which they have no direct con-
Germ.
The value of the Sonora trade is
conceded in Nogales and the mining
activity in that state fully appreciat-
ed, but its real nature and extent is
only family comprehended. In order
to obtain more particular information
on this subject for our story, we called
upon Mr.. Ignacio Bonillas, and to him
we are indebted for the substance of
this article. He is member of the
American Institute of Mining Engi-
.neers, and has been identified with
the mining development in Southern
Arizona and Sonora for the past
fourteen years. He was official engi-
neer for the government for several
years, and his reputation for character
and ability is of the highest.

mining industry and promote manu-

mining industry and promote manu-
featuring.
The large copper deposits near Fren-
teras are practically undeveloped. The
formation is sub-carboniferous lime
stone, similar to that of Bisbee.
There is & fine graphite mine in the
District of Hermosillo, the product of
of which is now exported to the United
States.
In short, Sonora bids fair to become
one of the most prosperous mining re
gions in the world; its mines are profit
able, the conditions are all favorable,
and the opportunities are as abun-
dant today as they ever were.
