Surveyor Parker and Captain Wood
yard OF Ell Paso.
aAloup the line OF the Rio Grsnde,
Sierra Madre & Pacific railroad back
as far as Casas Grsndes and In the
Immediate vicinity OF Guzman, will be
found very rich mines in gold. silver,
lead aud copper. From FL Peso to
point go miles west OF Chihuahua VIII:
be the coming big mining region OF
Mexico. In regard to New Mexico In
several sections there is considere BILE
excitement over copper mining. This
is especially so about Wstrcus, where
many leads have been found and guam
titles in the form of nuggets. These
latter are usually copper sulphlde which
runs 80 per cent copper. Owing. how
ever, to the distance from railroads
and the doubt Of good title, together
with the long haul, it IS questionable
il mining there could be made profit
able venture. There is, also, consider
able excitement around Silver City, n.
NJ. where some silver ores have been
found so pure that they can be easily
,.us with a knife aud where already are
great mines. The copper in that sec
tion is principally in the form OF cup
mite, with wire copper desemina ted
through the matriX. But that section
of the country is over-prospected. Ihe
same conditions and ores exist at Las
Cruces.
.'1'he turquoise properties at Los
Cerillos. where the big Tsffany mines
are located, are worthy of particular
mention. Ex-Governor Princes mine,
the Blue Bell, is. also located in this
district, and there are many other fine
prospects that have not been located.
All in all, there is great future for
the sections of Texas mentioned, and
likewise New Mexico.
The great drawback in southwestern
Texas is the intense heat, and the lack
of wood and water. The state mining
laws OF Texas are absurd in the ex-
IRENE, especially one requiring the pay
meus OF S25 an acre for the land upon
application for patent, after all other
fees have been paid"

r. o. Hall, of Denver, we'll known
mineralogist and metallurgist, has re-
ceived a letter from friend which
contains much Information about a
new mining region in Texas and New
Mexico. 1t Is published in the Denver
Post and says:
"Ninety-fve miles south from Mara
thon, Tex, a station on the Southern
Pacific railroad, aud about eight miles
from the Rio Graude river, is found
the most extensive deposit of low grade
cinnabar ore in the world.
This section of Texas. in the coun-
ties betting the extreme southeastern
boundary, along the Rio Grande river,
has been quietly prospected and open
ed up for four years past. Very little
attention las been attracted to the dis
trics until recently, when discoveries
of the large deposits of CHINA bar
brought it to the notice OF eastern min
ing men. While parts of the country
are rich IN cinuabar, copper, lead and
silver prospects, it has numerous draw
backs, chiefly the intense heat and the
lack of wood and water. The price OF

To Galveston

The Southern Pacific company will
sell tickets to Galveston, Texas, and
return on March 10Th, Goth and 21st,
limited to leave Galveston not later
than the 26th on the return trip, at
rate of S25. 90.
They will also sell on the 18th aud
Goth, liaited to leave Galveston not
later than the 23rd OF March, tickets al
rate OF 1913 20. This is on account of
the naval display OF the North Altar
tic squadron at that place.

Around Terra Lingua there is
quite deposit OF cinnabar. 1t Is found
apped with cslcite and in blanket
eformation, and the district is probably
Ave miles across and fifteen miles in
circumference. The surface ore runs
l to per cent quicksilver.
among the large mines are the
Lindh elm, the Devices aud the Hess
mines. This last named is now 10
feet deep and the cinnabar at the bot
tom of the shaft runs 81 per cent
quicksilver.
THE California mine, in this die
trict, is good one, comprising $40
acres. The Lorman people have 500
tons of ore stacked up around their
quarry. The Lindheim mine is
producing about 500 pounds of quick
silver day from four retorss of 500 to
700 pounds capacity each, Mexican

great deal o. the land has not yet been
taken up.
In regard to gold mining will say
that have not found anything worth
mentioning during my entire trip.
Thirty-fve miles from Marathon l
found fine specimen bearing free
gold, but a thorough search of three
days failed TO reveal the lead.
lin the vicinity of Alpine, Texas, a
short distance north of Marathon. will
undoubtedly be found soma rich silver
mines heavy in lead. The Homestake
mine, in this district, is 6 fine silver
and lead prospect. [ have no doubt
that rich mines will be discovered in
this Immediate section. Coming north
from this section to Ell Paso, there are
good indications for big mines of silver
and lead, with more cinnabar. In the
mountains to the west OF FL Paso, and
within seventeen miles, in Texas, are
to be found many leads of wolframite,
with tin ores OF very high grade, but
in narrow leads. The tin leads refer
red to are under the control of County
