Vast Resources Ignored
by Capital
RETARDED BY FALSE REPORTS
THE RICHEST MINING REGION
KNOWN
A Climate Fatal to Pulmonary
Troubles---Tempersture High but
Sunstroke Is Unknown

YUMA, Ariz., March 27.-very few
people on the coast know that La For
tuna mine, the great property recently
purchased by and now paying Charles
d. Lane some 100000 per NORTH is al
most in sight of and only 80 miles from
Yuma-Yuma the Neglected!
There Is not to be found prominent
locality more or less talked about all
over the land. and reached by trans
continental railway, that has been half
SO completely ignored by investors and
enterprise as this same Yuma. Scare
crow reports. which have placed the
town, really wonderfully blessed by ma
ture with resources unbounded, in hole
in the ground. usually as hot as hades,
have doubtless done much to turn aside
the natural march of progress. But the
day is at hand when a change must
come. Indeed, the handwriting of ap-
preaching change is upon the wall of her
environments. A few weeks ago re-
glon about as miles north of Yuma was
found with a great vein of gold quartz
across its bosom. Samples weighing 600
pounds were brought IN; and assays
ton. including $50 in silver Since then
many mining experts have visited the
region of this new find. and all fully
verify former reports, that II. B. Gleason
of Yuma and his partner have located
two fabulously rich claims upon a 10
foot ledge. in a dyorite and porphyry
formation. The ledge extends from 300
to 500 feet along the surface, and all the
tests made Indicate an average value of
those surface faces of ledge reaching
$4,000 or over to the ton. This new dis
covery Is in or beside the Plomos noun
tain range. The only water there is
found In natural reservoirs, soon ex-
hausted. The nearest permanent sup
ply is eight miles distant A stage line
is established, but no stores are yet
opened. One must take supplies from
Yuma.
It is, like Randsburg, no place for men
without means and a proper outfit for
protection on the desert. Hay can be
obtained at Haines' ranch, thirty-two
miles away, and there a small store has
also been opened. The famous mountain
promontory, Castle Dome, one of the
scenic wonders in the semi i-circle of
mountains which give Yuma its pictur-
esquely beautiful grandeur, is some six
teen miles Southwest OF the gueat new
strike.
But these are not all the active mining
localities that are or ought to be d.
rectfy tributary to Yuma. Up the river
some fifty miles north is the famous
Picacho country. where several hundred
miners are now at work on different
propositions; where several mills have
been at work, for some time proftably
and where an entire new milling plant
has just been shipped in for opening
new mine. 1t is In this region that Sen
ator Dorsey has twenty-six claims which
he Is developing and upon which he pro-
poses to erect 200-stanap mill this year.

located at Yuma, II in active charge OF

WAS PARALYzED AND SPECIFIES
4 Strange Italian, En- Route to New
York. Has n Peculiar Experience.

The ambulance. with DR.. Iabenberg IN
charge. was called to the Southern Depot
yesterday evening at o'clock to attend a
white man ian Italian, who had been
paralyzed and rendered speeches.. The
physician found the mans atilictlon TO
be Of a serious nature. His entire right
side suffered from the paralytic stroke
and all power Of distinct articulation was
gone.
The circumstances concerning the
Italians illness are peculiar and interest
ing. He is about % years Of age, and II
was learned from a friend, with whom
he was travelling. that he was on his way
from Winston. y. c.. TO New York city.
Just before reaching Richmond he was
taken III. and IN his own language eX-
claimed that he was paralyzed. All was
done for him that IL was possible 10 DO
on the train. and as soon as the city was
gained the ambulance was summoned.
The friend OF the sufferer, it Is thought,
left the city Immediately, and did not
tell his name or that Of the afflicted man.
and neither are known here yet. There
was nothing found on the Italians per-
SON bv which he could be Identified. and
his efforts 10 talk were futile. About S25
was found in his purse, but nothing else.
He was taken TO the almshouse. and his
condition is considered very critical

A meeting OF the Grace-Street Presby-

for tonight at o'clock to consider the

main The members of Grace-Street Pres
byterian church have been very much
distressed about the mere mention or his
leaving them, and could not believe that
such a thing was probable, and on ac-
count OF this confidence no outward ac-
ton was taken by them. This, perhaps
more than anything else, induced Or.
Fair to accept the call 10 Savannah. DR..
Fair having notified his people here FIJI
day evening last that he had accepted the
call and asked the session TO call a meet
ing OF the congregation 10 unite with MIN

East Hanover Presbytery meets in this

matter will be decided, unless the action

attached to his people here, and 1t Is not
believed he will leave them when they
show their unwillingness TO dissolve the
pastoral relations.

WAGON RAN OVER THE 'CYCLIsT.
A Youth Seriously Injured Yesterday
by GrOcery-Wagon.

William Deasy. l5-year-old youth, was
run over by a grocery-wagon while riding
his bicycle in the neighborhood or Rich-
mond College, near the corner OF Lom-
hardy and Franklin streets. shortly AFTER
o'clock yesterday morning.
The boy had just turned the corner OF
the streets named. when he met the
wagon, which was being recklessiy driven
by two negroes. He was apprehensive OF
danger and shouted TO the men to be
careful. but the collision followed imnle-
diately, and he was knocked 10 the
ground. both OF the wheels passing over
him. The bicycle was completely ruined.
The men in the wagon whipped up their
horse and drove of without waiting 10 see
the effects OF the accident. The boy was
picked up and taken at once TO the nome
OF his father. Mr.. James Deasy, Rich
mond. Fredericksburg and Potomac sec
ton master, on west Leigh street
DIR. Bright was called In, and while the
injuries are not likely 10 prove fatal, they
are very serious.
