SONORA SETTINGS.

MT. Ed Ferris of Hermosillo is fast recovering from the wounds he re- ceived on the first of January in res cuing from the attack of Sould-be assassin named Suarez, widow of ex- cellent family named Fuentes. The attempted murder occurred in the Plaza de Zaragosa at the time of the celebration of inauguration of the street car line, and the plaza was filled with people. Suarez engaged in conversation Sonora Fuentes, who was seated on bench with her children around her. MT Ferris was standing near conversing with an- other lady. Ferris attention was at tracted by the cries of the lady and her children and he saw that Suarez held her by the left wrist, her hand raised above her head and was stab- ping her with dagger. Ferris rushed in. caught the mans wrist and wrenched away the dagger, receiving severe cuts in his right hand in do- ing so. The tendons cf the largest finger were severed aud the little tin- ger was slashed. Before Ferris could seize the lady's assailant she had re- ceived seven severe >tabs, two quite serious, one in the chest and the other in the bosom When Ferris had succeeded in wrestling the hold of Sua- reg from the lady he held the assas- sin and called for policeman, but before help could come the man had wrenched himself away and ran. He was afterward captured and lodged in jail. The bravery and coolness of Mir. Ferris upon the trying occasion is everywhere receiving the greatest commendation.

The project has beeni IN contemplation
for some time, and It IL learned on the
authority Of Il. X. Nell, one Of the most
prominent mining men In the north
west, who IL the promoter Of the big
project, and who IL associated with
many Of the largest mine owners Of the
C9ur d'Alenes, that 1t has been def.
niteiy decided to 90 through with the
undertaking ut once.
The plans are for an electrical plant
with capacity of 5000 horse power.
IL 10 estimated that this will operate all
the ceur d'Aiene mines for from two
to three years. The available power OF
the falls 10 about 10000 horse power,
and all this will be used when required.
Speaking Of the project. Mr.. Neil said:
There are associated with me in the
enterprise the principal mine owners Of
the Ceur d'Alenes. Among them are
John A. Finch, Charles Sweeney and +.
II. culbertson. The capital IL practi-
calIy all local and II Is amply sufficient
TO carry the project 10 successful issue.
We have secured the entire control Of
the Post Falls water power from its
original owner, Frederick Post. Of Post
Falls. We will pat In an electrical
plant at the falls Of a capacity Of 5000
horse power. and will carry the electrical
power by wire into a central station on
Canyon creek. The transmission line
will be 90 miles loLg, reaching the Can.
yOn creek air station In that distance
and the Wardner mines In 30 miles.
The dam at the falls was built before
we secured control, 80 that all that re-
mains for US TO do Is to harness the
power. The power is developed under
dams under n ~ foot head.
The owners OF the new enterprise
being chiefly the owners Of the mining
interests that will be served, the project
viii, TO a large extent. be on a eO-opera-
tive plan at its business end. Under
the plaI we expect TO adopt we shall
not ask the mine owners to make any
investment In new machinery, but ex-
pect TO furnish them with compressed
air from the central station, the COM
pressors 10 be driven by electricity.
Under this plan the mine owner will
make . great saving 10 his power cost,
and will be able 70 use the machinery
already in commission. We will com
mence active construction work on the
plant Immediately, and We hope that
we may be delivering power into the
Cenr d'Alenes early next year"
