Spain Tn her conquests of territory and wars with other powers. By their dis. covery large part of her nobility was created, and with their riches cathedrals and churches were built and furnished with altars of silver, golden crosses and silver ornaments emblazoned with ru. bies and diamonds. In learning of the richness of the Fl Dorado she sent an army to conquer Mexico and destroyed a civilization superior to her own. After the Spaniards had thus proven the almost inexhaustible richness oi these mines the Apaches, smarting un. der the butcheries and burnings at the stake of their ancestors, arose and drove their oppressors out of the country their chief source of revenue.
 X half century later the Sonora min. iug fever broke out. and capitalists from the United States and from Eng land fiocked to the new El Dorado which was the old. Then the Apaches again took to the war path, and almost depopulated the country.
 The mining fever died out for quar ter of century, when American pros pectors from California, Nevada and Arizona began to flock in. There has heen a steady stream of travel to these districts ever since, and now Chihuahua and Sonora are largely 'Americanized.' A number of these prospectors have realized fortunes within the past few years, especially since the mining lawi were made more liberal. Several Los Angeles capitalists own silver and cop per mines in Sonora. They are also in. troducing the system of irrigation which will supply water for the mines and also the fertile valleys for Ameri. can farmers who are seeking that sec. ticn because land is cheap, and they prefer frontier life to civilization Sonora has the best harbor (Guaymasl on the coast, next to that of San Fran CISCO bay. And in the Gulf of Californis are valuable pearls. Immense fortunes were also realized by the Spaniards in these fisheries, the king also getting fifth and the patron saint Lady Quad alupe" another fifth.
 In addition to the influx of miners numerous colonies have recently emf grated to these provinces. With oui increase of population additional terri tory is needed, and the present genera ton may see the rich mineral states oi Sonora and Chihuahua "Texanized."

five dollars, which built the cathedral at Chihuahua, the gold and silver or- naments of which is valued at $100,000. One of his descendants became presi- dent of Mexico.
 Another remarkable discovery was that of the fabulously rich Catorce Lad rones (Fourteen Robbers) in San Luis Potosi. A negro fiddler Ia rarity in Mexico), on his return from fandango, camped on the mountain. In the morn ing he found in the embers of his camp fire chunk of pure silver. He had built the fire over the vein. He was not ennobled, but we next learn that the mine had been located by IA robbers, as the camp has borne the name of Catorce for more than century. A railroad extends for about two miles under the mountain to haul out ores. At this distance an immense cavern was found, recently, in which was found primitive mining implements.
 There is great deal of American cap ital invested in mines in these two rich provinces; also, considerable English capital, yet it is by no means scarce be- cause OI tue ApdcuC AudidhS WnO llFC by plundering others. The Mexican government gives little or no protection to these provinces, and the wealth of the foreigners is also tempting to Mexi- can robbers and interruptions officials.
 But, with an increasing population, consequent upon rich discoveries, the foreigners will soon become powerful enough to settle the Indian and other questions. when capital will be safe and mines can be worked under more advantageous conditions. In this man. ner, but under different conditions, Texas was settled, and finally threw off the Mexican yoke. Annexation fol lowed succeeded by the Mexican war, and the conquest of California.
 Considering the crude methods of mining in those days these mines cer- tainly must have been wonderfully rich The ore was carried up by the peons in leather sacks by means of wooden lad ders. The shafts were not prospected to depth beyond 20 or 80 feet, and when they became filled with water or caving earth, or when a rocky obstruc- tion was struck, they were abandoned

GOVERNING A HORSE.
He Means to Do Right; Errs only
 from Ignorance or Fright.


 Horses are essentially creatures of habit, of gentle, confding dispoai- tions, but excessively nervous; timid, at times irritable, and prone to resist strenuously anything that frightens them. If, for example, you put rope halter on an unbroken colt and tie him to post, the more the rope cuts into his tender skin the greater will be his struggles, while he will soon yield to halter that inflicts no pain. Through nervous fright horses sometimes be- come panic-stricken and absolutely un- controllable. They suffer also occasion ally from what, for want of better name, may be called nervous paraly- sis" when they seem to be physically incapable of motion. This condition is almost invariably the result of brutal treatment, and the only reasonable ex- planation of it is that the first emotion aroused in the horse by punishment is fear; that when he finds that he cannot escape anger and a spirit of resistance are mingled with his fright, and that these combined emotions produce this morbid state.
 The horse is quick to take advantage of the ignorance or fear of those who control him. As compared with the dog, he is somewhat slow of compre- hension, but he differs from the dog in this also, that he seldom becomes ''too old to learn new tricks" and his mem ory is so retentiye that he never for gets what he has once thoroughly learned
 It may be also set down, as rule, with few exceptions, that he meant to do just right; if he errs it is either from ignorance, pain or fright, rarely from stubbornness or vice. This seems to be generally unknown, or at least disregarded, for of all the animals the horse is the least understood, the most harshly judged and unjustly treated, and for the least infraction of disci- pline he is too often brutally punished. If men who train horses would control their tempers and endeavor to ascer- tain the cause of the animals misbe- havior they would find that there is often a good cause for his actions.
 The eye is the best index to the ami maf's feelings. The ears are very ex- presslve, but they do not reveal so plainly the emotions that are dominat- ing him as the eye does. Therefore, study the eye, with it's varying ex- pressions, and when you can read their meaning you hold the key to one of the chief secrets of successful training.
 The horse should be convinced that resistance is useless, but do not be i'm m bor cess is the reward of unwearied pa- tience. If you fail at first keep trying until you succeed. Do not be discour- aged if you do not seem to make prog ress; your task may tfliNe weeks or even | months, but if you persevere you will | triumph.-Florida Ruralist.

MEXICO'S RICH MINES.
American Prospectors Are Now
 Taking Hold of Them.
The States of Sonora and Chihuahua Contain Fabulous Stores of Pure Silver and Cop
 per Ores.
Especial Los Angeles (cal.) Letter.l

Recent reports of discoveries, or rather rediscoveries, of rich silver mines in the adjoining Mexican states of So- nora and Chihuahua have turned a large number of prospectors in that direction, which will somewhat coun- teract the rush to the arctic Since the exhaustion of the Nevada mines prospectors have percolated through Arizona into Sonora and Chihuahua. A few rich strikes, followed by the usual general rush to the new Fl Dorado, will hasten the inevitable-the acquisition by the United States of these provinces, which hang like a ripe peach ready to drop into the hands of anyone who is willing to grasp them. These states are, and have been for centuries, terror ized by Apache Indians, and the we'll to-do ranchers, as well as the wretch edly poor who are safe from the depre- dations of the Apaches, look to this gov ernment as the only relief from the plundering Indians. The ranchers realize that stable government would enhance the value of their property and the laborers feel that they would then have some incentive to accumulate property, and the mines could be worked in greater security. Indian raids have been the greatest drawback to the development of the mines. Yet more silver has been taken from the mines of these provinces than has been produced by the remaining states of Mexico; more than the output of Cali fornia in the golden days" or of Ne vada in the bonanza days.
 These mines are not yet exhausted. For three centuries, Mexico, or New Spain, sent about $1O,0Oo,0Oo yearly to the mother country" This was the kings tifth," which he demanded as

"MY WEES LIFE"
How \ was the means
 of saving it.

When the lungs are attacked and the symptoms of consumption appear, then begins the struggle between affection and that destroying disease which stays it's thousands annually It is a happy issue to the struggle when disease is conuuered and health restored. Such an issue does not always end the struggle, but it did in the case of MT. K. Morris, Memphis, Tenn
 who saw his wife wasting and weakening and physicians helpless, and then sug- gested the simple remedy that wrought the cure. He tells the story thus
 "Seven years ago. my wife had severe attack of lung trouble which the phy- sicians pronounced consumption. The cough was extremely distressing, espe- cially at night, and was frequently attended with the splitting of blood. The doctors being unable to help her, in- duced her to try Dr. Ayers Cherry Pectora1 and was surprised at the great relief it gave. Before using one whole bottle she was cured, so that now she is strong and quite healthy. That this medicine saved my wife's life have not the least doubt. l always keep Dr. Ayers Cherry Pectora1 in the house. Whenever any of my family have cold or cough we use 1t, and are

owner of the earth in which the metal was found. The bulk of this silver came from these provinces. When the proyerbial dishonesty of Spanish otfi- cials is considered, this estimate may be at least doubled. Spanish records and statements of travellers, the records of missions and the histories of families who have been ennobled through rich dicoveries, verify these facts which con- vey with them a tinge of oriental TO- nance. The Sierra Nevadas, which traverse Nevada and California, and which have electrified the world with their richness, reappear-Mexico as the Sierra Madre, and forms the boundary line between Sonora and Chihuahua. Sonora is the richer of the two, because it contains not only silver, but also gypsum, sulphur, pumice stone and salt, the latter of which is necessary for the extraction of silver, and it has an equable climate and soil equal to that of California. On the Sonora side of the mountain is the long-since aban- doned mine of Arazuma, or Avishe, not far from Chihuahua-the most wonder full mine in the world, from which was taken one piece of silver weighing 2,7O0 pounds. the largest piece taken from any mine in the history of the world. This is proven by mining records in the City of Mexico. This famous bo- nanza was discovered about two cen turies ago, and for about 100 years Il produced such immense masses of vir- f~... iyr,s, or the white metal were to be debased sure enough Not content with his one fifth, the king of Spain confiscated 1t, and, under government officers, the product gradually ''petered out"
 Shortly afterwards the Apaches took to the war path and almost desoiated the country; and for near 100 years this most wonderful mine in the world has remained abandoned and forgot ten.

shiIleIah Manufacture in Ireland.

The shillelah industry, or the making of blackthorn sticks, is becoming quite prosperous in Ireland. Happily the shillelahs are not now intended-as in the days of Donnybrool1 fair-for crack ing skulls, as may be imagined when we mention that the duke of York returned from Ireland with 100 of them to pre- sent to his friends. One of the most industrious makers of these sticks was an old Crimean soldier who lives in village in Connemara. Hearing that the queen suffered from rheumatism. he sent her majesty an exceedingly fine blackthorn crutched stick, with letter guaranteeing it to be one of the finest and strongest in Ireland He has now hanging in his little shop framed let ter of thanks and q portrait of the queen, which were sent him by order of her majesty.-Westmin Gazette.
