About five o'clock yesterday evening a cloud burst in Las Planchas cafion, above the place where the Nogales Water company have dug their new well and were enlarging it and put ting in the necessary machinery and appliances. Mir. J. L. Hunter was at work with six men. and Mir. Hunter himself was down in the drift leading from the bottom of the well. Sudden ly one of the men called to him that water was coming down the canon, and he hurried to the surface just in time to save his life. A great wall of water came pouring down the full width of the canon, and Hunter and his men had to wade out to high ground through water up to their arm pits.
 The water reached Nogales about six o'clock, and at the turn Of the ar royo opposite the railroad depot It cut away the bank half way tO the railroad buildings. The rip-rapping of the bank was damaged by the storm Monday, and the flood last night tore away great section thereof, while the raging waters steadily cut into the soft ground, undermining and tearing away great areas.
 About seven o'clock the flood sub sided and the danger ceased. Had the flow continued another hour the depot building would have been toppled into the flood, and the entire volume of water would have cut through the town, doing hundreds of thousands of dollars damage. The town authorities should imme- diately have erected substan- tial wall at that point Another such clOudburst above and the busi- ness part of the town would be ruined.

 Near Cucurpe, about thirty-tive miles southwest of Magdalena, Mir. L.. 70 Cowan of Kingman, Arizona. is developing some very promising gold properties. On the principal property he has a shaft l25 feet deep with a tunnel i30 feet long. The two open irgs have developed a two-foot vein Of fine milling gold ore which runs from sllO to sls0 per ton. Another ledge of four feet in width goes s26 per ton in gold. and third ledge 2i feet wide goes SIS per ton.
 Fl Paso Times: Don Bonancio Du- razo. one nf the wealthiest men in the district of Moctezuma. Sonora, is working four or five silver mines at Guasavas. He has heretofore packed the ore 200 miles to Hermosillo. but recently sent a pack train to Casas Grandes for supplies and to look over the trail He has concluded that Casas Grandes is nearer and more ac- cessihle for him, and will. as soon as ar engagements are perfected. ship his en- tire output to Fl Paso, via the Sierra Madre line from Casas Grandes. From the mines to Casas Grandes the ore will be transported on mule back.
 Fl Paso Times: George Gregg and partner. while prospecting near Ma rosari. Sonora. l50 miles west of Ca sas Grandps.

Arizona. or via the Sierra Madre line from Casas Grandes.

 Monday evening party of Tucson people who had been camping in the Santa Catalinss, came to Nogales to visit day or so. They were Mss Mary CrepiD, Misses Martin and MT A. Crepin. The young ladies success. fully climbed "Old Baldy" aud are very proud of their accomplishments as well they might be, for 1t is very difficult feat.
 Colonel w. P. Harlow is in receipt of letter from his partner, MT. John A. Gowan, who was at Alameda, Cali. fornia. He wrote that the sea voyage from Guaymas tC San Francisco bene. fitted him greatly. At San Pedro Mrs. Gowan and Master Arthur Gowah took the steamer and went to San Francisco with MT. c.

 Work of moving the depot proceeds apace. This week the Sonora Rail- way Co.'s custom house brokerage Of. ice was moved to its new location not Tar from the Mexican custom house, and work has now commenced upon the long building south Of tue main office building. Some time next week that will be in place, and then the main building will follow.

 In another column there appears the business card of Mir. Joseph al Lusignan, practical millwright, whose services can be secured to sup erintend the erection of quartz mills, concentrators, hOists or any other kind of mining machinery. MT. al Lusignan has enjoyed many years ex- perience and is an expert in his line. During the past fourteen years he has erected in the state of Sonora alone no less than fourteen quartz mills and concentrators, doing tirst-class job in each and every one. His work is it's own recommendation.
 It is credibly reported tlat during the storm Monday which flooded so many houses in Nogales, an old woman living at RanchitU was drowned iD her own house. She was stranger, having been in town but ashort time. She was quite i'll and lay on pallet on the floor. In the excitement due to the flood everyone in the vicinity was occupied with his own affairs, and no one thought Of the poor old womsn After the water had subsided someone went to her house to see how she was faring and found her drowned. The water had poured into her house to a depth of couple of feet, and in her feeble condition she was unable to arise and get away, so she was literal ly drowned in her bed. Her name was unknown.

A Very Rich Mine.

Int lOlloNluk ii'h A<i "7' 2AhfN' will interest our readers, as MT. k. l.. Giroux, well known in Arizona and Sonora. is half owner with MT. King in the property described, and 1t has been under Mr. G.'s excellent man. agement that the property has been SO handsomely developed and made so valuable:
 Among the passengers to arrive in El Paso over the Rio Grande, Sierra Madre & Pacific road yesterday after noon was A. J. King part owner and manager of the Cinco de Mayo mine, in the Sierra Madres. eighteen miles southwest of Oaxac. Mir. King was found at the Centre Block hotel by Times reporter and asked if he had any good mining news. For an an- swer Mir King handed the reporter two pieces of ure so full of pure horn silver that 1t could be bent like solid piece of metal.
 The other day said MT. King, lat depth of 100 feet in the CiDco de Mayo I found an immense pocket of that ore, and it runs 20, 100 ounces of silver to the ton. We were work ing two foot lead that averaged 1000 ounces to the ton when we struck the pocket. The lead is full of pock- cts and the ore in some of them run as high as l,500 ounces, but never struck anything like this. The pock- ct Is large one, and l cannot say how much ore 1t contains; but this Is fair sample of every ounce Of ore in the pocket. It is pure norm silver and l can realize Sl0.000 per ton gold on the ore in that pocket. l made one for tune in the Black Hills and have seen many rich finds, but never say any thing in the shape of horn silver to beat this.
 "All of the ore have taken out of the Cinco de Mayo averages 1000 ounces to the ton and 1 realized Sl6,0 900 on the two small shipments of ore 1 have made. now have thirty tons Of the same ore en route to El Paso. I have 70 burros and B mules packing ore over the mountain to Oaxac. Be- fore the end of the month l will have 100 mules. We now have D men at work at the mine and will have 250 men the first of next month. Iwculd have them now, but owing to high water we have not been able to ship in supplies or men. The Mormon colony at Oaxac has agreed to aid me iD building good road from Oaxac to Casas Grandes, and we will begin the work Monday. With s2,00O we can put the road in fine condition. l am going to ship all of my ore to El Paso by way of Casas Grandes, and all of the other camps out there will do the same thing as soon as we get our good road.
 "Yon can't say too much about the mineral wealth of that country. The silver is there and 1 can show it to any person who will go out with me. There are several fine producing mines adjoining mine, and l venture the prediction that in two years that will be the richest and most active mining district in Mexico. And it is a district that has never been pros- pected. Inside Of two montss there will be 300 miners working in the camps right around ours"
 Mr. King is certainly in fine luck. This last bucket he struck in the Cinco de Mayo looks like it might contain at least thirty tons of the ore, carrying 20, 100 ounces of silver to the

QUESTION WHICH THE MEET.
ING WILL DECIDE.
Walton Admits There Will Be Two
Tickets, But Says There Will Be
But One Republican Ticket
Candidates Are Very Scarce
Cannon Will Be Home Soon For a

There is some anxiety manifested among
members of the Republican party over
the result of the meeting. which will be
held tonight, for the purpose of formu-
lating call for a state convention, which
will be held some time during September.
At that meeting a candidate for congress
and a candidate for justice of the supreme
court will be selected, the expiration of
the term of Chief Justice Zane creating
vacancy.
The contention will be over the cualifi-
cations for membership of the convention
vote in the primaries of the party. Last
state election time there was an effort
made to unity the party and it did unity
to the extent that a candidate for con-
gress was nominated by two conventions.

THE EXCURSION TO T|NT|C,
MINING CONGRESS DELEGATES
VISIT THE GREAT DISTRICT.

Hospitality at Eureka = The
Outing Pleasant and Profitable.

Yesterday was gala day at Eureka,
Silver City, Mammoth and at the other
flourishing mining towns in the great
Tintic district. Popular excursions
were run by the railroads to the nearby
mining camps, mainly to give oppor-
tunity to the mining congress delegates
to see a demonstration of the develop
ment of Utah's marvellous mineral
wealth, and to make an estimate of
the splendid possibilities of the future.
Park City had it's share of visitors,
and a veritable host several hundred
strong boarded the Oregon Short Line
excursion train for Mercur and Tintic.
But the Rio Grande Western sold by
far the largest number of tickets to
the Tintic district towns. Mining con-
gress delegates were well represented
among the excursionists, but hundreds
of Salt Lakers took advantage of the
rates and the opportunity TO see the
sights, to visit friends and to peer into
the science of mining.
