lures but all hot. From the spring at
the Grand baths runs a. steaminss brook
which is used by the poorer people, both
for laundry and bath house. The women
are always washing on the stones and
sometimes they are sporting in the water.
In spite, however, of the glowing ro-
mances of the guide books we saw
nothing fascinatingly improper in these

Mexico as compared to Cuba, offers few
advantages. Indeed, we saw nothing IN

SOnOra Coal.
 Sonora promises to be the seat Of future coal development on scale wbicb will make 1t the long.sought fuel distributing point of the Pacific coast. Not long since, the acquisi- tion of many thousands of acres of coal land by 0. P. Huntington was beraded in the papers. Subsequent developments have shown this land to be rich in coal, and now comes the Sonora Coal & Iron Company, which has secured by purchase all the land surrounding the Huntington tract of 5.SOO acres, amounting to 3,OOO,OOO acres with the intention of beginning at once the the work of taking out coal.
 Mir. Ira G. Ross, the president of the company, Is in the city, and ac- companying him is the chairman Of the company's executive committee. eve have no doubt of the value Of our land" said the latter last night, "apd we have been assured by the state geclogist of Sonora that the coal beds are practically inexhausti- ble. On the Huntington land also they haved one active prospecting and have found coal Of fine quality. This was proven by their taking out l75 cargas and shipping 1t to San Francis co, where it was given a searching steam test under close observation Of Southern Pacific experts. The result as I have said, leaves no dcubt as to the excellent quality, and we have now only to determine the quantity. This has practically been done by diamond drill tests.
 "The veins are ante-clinal, cropping out, and and running down diagonal ly. These have been followed for hundreds of feet and have been Inter- cepted by drills driven vertically down other hundreds of feet, and we have, therefore, only the c0nclu- sion to draw that the deposits are i'm. meDsc.
 "Our concern has been uuderwrit- ten by the representative ofa London syndicate to the extent of &,0OO. 900, and we shall. as soon as the veins are little more definitely located, go to work taking our coal, and shall when necessary, build road of our own to the mines Two Republics.

A MoB,s WORK AT AKRON.


Akron, O., Aug. 24.-When yester
day dawned in this city it revealed
a scene Of desolation and the evi
dences of violence and lawlessness I'M
paralleed in the history of this city
One child, was lying dead and neafl,
a score of persons were suffering
from the wounds of pistol balls, buck
shot and missiles. The city building
was heap of smoldering ruins, ant
beside ii steamed the water-soakel
ashes of Columbia hall.
At $3.50 a. m. company c, Eighth
regiment of Canton, arrived in Akron
under riot orders. The soldiers were
met at the Valley depot by Mayor
Young and party of city officials
They were marched Immediately tC
the scene of Wednesday nights riot
ing. At 9:20 nine companies of the
Fourth regiment arrived. Shortly
before ten o'clock Mayor W. E. Young
issued proclamation closing every
saloon in Akron up:il further orders,
In Wednesday nights rioting Glenn
Wade was shot and almost instantly
killed. He was in the mob and a
bullet from the revolver of police
man in the city hall found the boys
heart. The lad was only II years
of age. Another innocent who will
die is Rhoda Davidson. the seven
year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
J. NJ. Davidson. Sitting in u carriage
with her mother and father, on the
outskirts of the mob, the deadly bull
let from revolver in the hands of
a police officer passed harmlessly
over the rioting throng and found
Judgment in the skull of the child
No hope is held out for her recovery.
Standing in the front windows VI
the city hall, Mayor Young, Chief of
Police Harrison and other police Of
ficials, were haranguing the mob, en-
deayoripg to convince the rioters that
Louis Peck, the colored man charged
with assanlting little four-year-old
Christine Mas, had been quietly re-
moved from the Jail during the after
noon and taken TO Cleveland for safe
keeping. The remarks of the mayor
only increased the anger of the mob.
Adjoining the city hall, which was
constructed almost entirely of brick,
was an immense building which for
many years past was the principal
public hall of Akron. This building
caught the eye of the mob as likely
place to set fire to in the hope that
the flames would soon spread to the
city building. No sooner thought of
than it was done. Columbia hall was
soon a ruin. The mob then made a
rush for the city hall. Flaming EN-
bers were thrown into the different
rooms and the building was soon
burning. Some of the more thought
ful ones in the mob liberated the
prisoners from the cells below the
haA. A stick of dynamite was thrown
into the front of the burning build
ing. A terrific crash followed and
portions of the wall crumbled away
like dust before the breeze. An
other charge was exploded, and the
work of devastation was completed.
At conference in the afternoon
between Mayor Young and the mill
tary officers, dead lines were estab-
lished and soldiers were placed in
different parts of the downtown Sec
tions of the city.
