The colony is situated on a tract OF
ID ut HOO acres of the best farming
land, lying in a bend of the Rio Gran

passes down long avenue with well
cultivated lands on either side. At the

it. In this way they expect to raise a
new and pure race of beings.

The three French engineers who
came out from France in connection
with the recent sale of the .nguaran
copper mines, in the state OF Michoa-
can, are making two preliminary sur
veys, both starting from 1nguaran, and
rum ny one line to PatzcuarO and the
other to Uruapan. The length of each
Inc is estimated to be from 40 to $50
kilometers. The object of the new
road is to connect Inguaran with the
Mexican National at either Patzcuaro
or Uruapan. as the topography OF the
country may indicate, and thus pro-
vide rail transportation for the output
of the mines to the gulf ports for ship
ment thence to Europe. If 1t is true,
as the ''Globe Democrat" representa-
tive has bsen assured by a reliable
party connected with the project. that
the Rothschilds are intere-ted in the
purchase Ct the Inguaran mines, there
is no doubt that this road Will be built
without delay, and a very productive
feeder will be soon connected with the
Mexican National Railway. The Roth
schilds are the principal owners of the
Boleo copper mines at Santa Rosalla,
in Lower California, and the very sat-
isfactory results OF that purchase have
induced them to make another Mexican
investment and purchase the 1oguaran
copper mines. 1t was Carlos Eisen-
mann who handled the sale of the b.
leo mines. ard he has also carried
through the sale of the Inguarau pro-
perty. No cession for this road has
been as yet formally solicited from the
government. but as soon as the best
line is decided on application will be
made for it.

The British government had de.

SEATTLE, Wash, July 1.-THE Alaska

here TO develop the coal and oil fields

AlasIsa by r. c. Johnston, OF Los Gatos,

The report made to the company by
Mr.. Johnston and Mr.. I. ]. Hamilton,
Of this city, the experts who made
a thorough examination Of the
property, show that the discov-
cry is really the most wonder
full find the world has ever known.
The oil fields are located within q
few hundred feet of the tidewater, $50
miles west Of juneau. The statement
Is made in good faith that the oil is
dripping directly from the oil rock,
and In places can be dipped up in
buckets, while the surrounding coal
beds are inexhaustible. Thirty thou
sand feet of pipe has already been Or
dcred from Pittsburgh, and as soon as
received here steam schooner will be
chartered to carry it and tank materi-
ais 10 the discovery.
A prominent oil man has given a
guarantee OF all the capital necessary
10 handle the product. The oil is pro
nounced of the best quality ever seen,
and the quantity is unlimited.
