So little of tire testimony submitted to
the court martial Mt Rennes reaches
this country thnt it is impossible to form
any opinion as to the guilt or innocence
OF Dreyfus . by studying the evidence.
Whatever conclusions American readers
may have formed are based chiefly upon the
opinions cf corre sponlents more or less pre-
judlcsd one way or the ether, and the ex-
,pcsnrss of iniqulty on tho part of French
army officers before the second trial be-
gan. Undoubtedly the great majority of
Americans believe that Dreyfus is inno-
cent, and that his first conviction was
the result of a diabolical conspiracy. and
expect that his second trial will result In
his acquittsl. Yet 1t is easy to be too
saDguine on this last point. How tar the
jury which is trying him may be affected
by prejudice and preconceived notions
in regard to the prisoners guilt. we do
not know. Neither do we know how
much iEculplatiEg evidence there may
be which cannot be laid to the door of
liars and forgers. Tine result of the trial
nobody can safely predict.

MINERAL MEATH OF SANTA CRUZ co
The Oldest Known Mineral and Mining
 District in Arizona.


 Lulley. Rich mineral mountains which will soon be developed and worked by large capital. Mines that will pay to work from the grass roots. Santa Cruz county win soon rank among the first Mineral producers. These mines are under consideration for an enormous amount.
 The following Is a history of the Santa Rita mountains, Arizona, from the time of the first discoveries Of mineral wealth, up the present date; briefly outlined by Mark LulIey:
 Situated about fifty miles from Tue son and twenty eight miles from No gales, Arizona, lie the Santa Rita range of mountains, l2,000 feet above the sea level, known since l752 to be exceedingly rich in mineral deposits.
 From whichever direction you ap- proach the bold sweep of mountains, with their massive and serrated peaks, commands the attention through the valley of the Santa Cruz, swept the Aztecs and Toltecs, the Spanish explorers, conquerors and priests.
 The most important evidence we have of the latter is the old mission of St. Joseph, Tumacacorl, now in ruins. which was first constructed in l7a2 Notes have been made from reports furnished by Professor Davis, well known geologist and mineralogist, to R. J. Hinton, author of Handbook to Arizona"
 Professor Davis first visited the Santa Cruz valley in lS49, and the church was then tOlerably intact. Among the evidence of former occu- patton was large enclosure which undoubtedly had been the work yard of the mission, as there were remains of rude smelting vases or furnaces, heaps of debris, etc., which showed that the Jesuts had been actively en- gagged in the mining and working Of ores. Numerous relics, old ruins, mill sites, old mines, etc., go to show that once this fertile valley was the scene of activity.
 The old Hacienda de Santa Rita is perhaps one of the most picturesque.
 History records that as the Spanish and Americans came to hunt for treasure, they finally had to give way before the ruthless Apaches. It also records that in spite of these draw backs much treasure was taken from these mountains, and how, finally when the adyenturers gave way to the sayages, the mines were after a few years, reegated tO obscurity and became as far as civilization was con cerned, Host Mines"
 There are still books in existence which speak of the Aztec, Salero and TumacacOri mines. and Professor Davis says: "The Salero is in the Tyndal district; the Tumacacori has never been foundr Old traditions. oral and written, state that the famous Tumacacori mine of the Jesuits was distant westward about fourteen miles from St. Joseph's mis- sion; and many gallant lives have been lost in the endeavor to find aud relocate it.
 h an old Spanish book we find: ''In the year l769, a region of virgin silver was discovered on the frontier of the Apaches, tribe exceedingly warlike and valiant, at the place called Arizona, on mountain ridge, which hath been named the Santa Rita"
 The king of Spajn. hearing of these
