The Big Shelter Blown In Again and the
 Camp Resumes It's Former Activity.

During the rainy season in Sep tember last, while the Sonora rail- way was tied up about month by the complete obliteration of dozen miles or more of the road and road bed in Casita Canon, (where the Magdalena river changed its course, and when it subsided from the flood stage flowed where the rail- way formerly ran) coke shipments to Copete were shut of and bullion shipments from that great camp were likewise terminated. Without coke bullion production was impos- sible. and even were it possible 1t would be only to accumulate stock for no outward shipments could be made by rail. So the Melczer Min ing Company concluded to shut down their big smelter and take advantage of the suspension to make a lot of necessary repairs, thoroughly overhaul the machinery and, by a vigorous prosecution of development work, increase the ore reserves. Now everything is in splendid shape for long run, and on the 2d inst. the big smelling fur mace at Fl Copete was blown in, the camp resuming it's former wonted activity. This week THE OASIS presents very hansome engrav- iug of the shelter, and next week there will appear an equally hand some engraving of Fl Copete peak, from which the camp takes its name) with the little town nestling among the hills in the foreground. ] hese engravingS are from photo graphs by Mir.

The General Assembly is divided In

sion The two branches are unable as yet
TO reach an agreement on this important
question.
Although the lawmakers have been
at work for a week they have not reached
a conclusion as to what limitations shall
be put upon the range of legislation.
The Senate has twice put Its foot down
against opening the way for general legis-
Iation. The House has with equal If not

cis!pe vote twice declared its unwilling
ness to tie its hands in the matter. TAX

CAPE HENRY OF THE FUTURE.
Great Possibilities for What Is Nova
Barron Sand Bunit.

The Times has already published some
thing of government and railroad plans
in connection with Cape Henry. but it is
an interesting subject with fascinating
probabilities not the most improbable of
which is ferry to Cape Charles and q
new support post. and we give below
some additional facts from the Norfolk
Landmark:
ON reEervation al Cape Henry,
two miles along the shore and one mile
deep, the United States Government Will
erect Il Qualification to surpass anything
OF the kind now On the Atlantic sea coast.
This is now no dIeam but a substantial
fact and one which is to be realized in
the near future. Already tlas the Govern
lnent begun the preliminary arrange
Inents for securing the desired site ard
already is there reason to believe that
certain details have been conn creed for
securing the desired amount Of money by
appropriation.
This spot commands the entrance to one
OF the greatest waterway in all the
world, and the Government realizes It's
Importance in times of war, SO that in
order that the nations capital and other
large cities may have ample protection,
The erection of the fortificatio flere seems
just in order.
When constructed, the fort at Cape
Henry will be supplied with the very
ldlSSI duit ILLS NillSIL a. o
Thirteen-inch guns, with disappearing
batteries, will be placed there ana every
thing possible will be done not only to
make the fort impregnable, but also to
make it a place which would at all times
absolutely command the waterway ana
thus prevent the passing by Of any ship.
But this is not all that isto be done at
Cape Henry. The Cape Henry Syndicate
which owns about $500 acres OF land at
this point. is fast selling this off into lots
and in the near future there will DE quite
Il colony OF cottages there.
Much depends, OF course, upon the ac-
ton of the Chesa peake Transit Company,
which is now engaged in building a steam
railroad from q point near Norfolk to the
Cape This company has already given
out the contract for the building OF this
road to Isaac a. Walker e Son OF Phila-
(Ielphia, the cost of building and equip
ping: the road being in the neighborhood
of $500 COO. The work Will be completed
and the road in operation by July 10
