About 500 men are employed, and the
company controls the, town of Casa
paica, which has grown up about the
works. The smelter was originally
started on a small scale to work over
the dumps of the Ryo and other silver
mines, of which there were something
like 10000 tons at this point. Then the
company bought the Ryo copper and
silver mine and took a ten years lease
of the Carlos Francisco mine. Both of
these mines have been worked from
the surface for many years.
Backus and Johnston decided to run
a tunnel into the mountain and strike
the ore body LOO feet below the upper
workings. They did this, but failed to
find pay dirt In the Ryo. A few months
ago the tunnel was pushed on into the
Francisco vein, and here very rich
body of ore was struck. I was shown
specimens Of the ore at Casapalca. The
vein Is seven feet wide and twenty
inches of it assays, I am told, $50
ounces Of silver to the ton. The tun-
mel Is 5000 feet below the outcroppings
Of the ore, and 1t is believed that some
rich pockets will be struck in working
upward. This mine is worked after
the approved American fashion The
tunnels have railroad tracks in them,
and the ore when brought to the sur
face is sent to the mills on q gravity
tramway.
SMELLING FOR PERUVIANS.

SILVER MINING IN PERU.
The silver mines of Peru are almost
as rich as those of Bolivia. There are,
1 have been told, about 1000 different
silver mines in Athat country, but, ow-
ing to the low price of silver, only a
few are now being worked At Hual-
gayoc, in Northern Peru, just over the
western range of the Andes there are
400 silver mines within forty square
leagues. Some of these mines produce
as much as 800 ounces of silver to the
ton, and the waste dumps will average,
l am told, at least sixteen ounces per
ton. The ore is mined by Indians, who
are paid about 40 cents of our money
per day. Their only tools are ham
mers, drills and rawhide sacks. They
have neither picks nor shovels, and
they burrow through the mountain
like rates, taking out only the richest
parts of the ore. They work almost
naked, wearing only breech cloths
about their waists, and as they work
they utter weird and melancholy cries.
All of the ore is carried out upon
their backs. An Indian will carry $50
pounds He will climb UP ladders or
notched sticks with such load of ore
