op dry catarrh; they dry up the secretions, which adhere to the membrane and decom- pose, causing @ far more serious trouble than the ordinary form of catarrh. Avoid all dry ing inhalants, fumes, smokes and snutfs and use that which cleanses, soothes and heals. Ely's Cream Balm is such remedy and will cure catarrh or cold in the head easily and pleasantly.

 In my morning stroll passed from the church through an open square to the plaza, handsomely ornamented with a great variety of tropic and sem-tropic foliage. l there encoun- tered tall, fine looking gentleman, of about sixty years of age who was very affable and corteous. Later in the day called upon the prefect of the district, Don Miguel Encinas, and found in that gentleman the one whose acquaintance 1 had so pleasant. ly made at the plaza in the early morning. During my stay of four days in Sahuaripa he showed me many courtesies. He called meeting Of leading citizens to consider repre-. senting the town of Sahuaripa in the forthcoming illustrated edition of THE OASIS descriptive of Sonora, and induced them to unite in liberal sub scriptions.
 MT. Jacob Beveridge of Sahuaripa, mining operator of long experience in the Sahuaripa district, is arranging to begin operations upon the Monte rey, d very valuable copper property he owns, which is located about six teen miles north of Sahuaripa, and and about the same distance south of Badesa, on the line between Mocte- zuma and Sahuaripa districts. The ores produce copper, gold and silver. MT. Beveridge reduces them in Mex ican adobe smelling furnaces, turning out a high grade matte which he ships to reduction works in the United States.
 1 am invited to attend wedding at BycaDora, not far from Sahuaripa, on New Years eve; but l have already been delayed several days en route, and must hustle along. 1 leave Sa- huaripa on the 3lst, going to Mulatos to visit the big mine at that place and the promising district surrounding. very rich in mineral wealth and des- stined to shortly become a region of great productive activity. 1 part here with Doctor Wright who has to re- turn to Lampazos, and will be accom- panied as far as Mulatas by MT. Julius Hallenstein, a gentleman operating in mines in this part of Sonora, who is thoroughly posted, and from whom 1 am gathering fund of valuable in- formation.
 Upon Saturday deal was made at Sahuaripa by which captain George Christy of Phoenix and George Beebe of San Francisco bought five mines in the Sahuaripa district, near Mulatos, some 400O acres of fine timber lands, water rights, etc. The mines are "antiguas" with fine reco' ds of pro- duction. Work is to be inaugurated upon an extensive scale, The mines sold are called Chipeona, Chipeona- Colorado, Bustimuri, Tajos, Casita Colorado. The five mines are group of fine gold properties. The vendor is Rafael s. Meneses of SahuaTipa dis trict, residing at Yerba Buena.

WAYSIDE NOTES.

to the Sahuaripa river, which IS here but a couple of miles away At the top of the divide we turned and view ed the scene below We were upon the rim of an amphitheatre hardly more than mile across, surrounded upon all sides by rugged and lofty mountains, upon two of it's sides the rise being preciptous. The river came out of gorge at one corner Of the nearly rectangular area, winding part of the way across the open over purliug rapids, laying the foot of lofty cliff, with still and placid stream, which swept around it's base and disappeared in gorge at the far side of the valley from where we stood.
 Crossing the Sahuaripa we found a "vinateria" upon one Of its banks, and we stopped time to investigate it's workings. l got fund of lnforma- tion and took copious notes.
 Just above the "vinateriaA was little village-the families of the workmen employed at the place As soon as it was known that Doctor Wright was there people of all ages and conditions flocked to the "vinate- riar to see him. He good naturedly did all he could for them-going so far as to operate upon a child afflicted with watery tumor, which he cut open.
 Leaving the vinateria we had yet about four leagues to traverse before reaching Sahuaripa. The distance was farther up the river, which here makes big bend, and we saved time by following the trail through the mountains.
 About league away we came in sight of the town, the towers of the church standing up in bold relief from near the center of a lovely valley.
 About half a league from town we encountered our first mishap, the l pack upon our pack mule coming un- done, while we were proceeding at a smart gallop, and scattering our bag gage along the road Of course the | mule took fright and stampeded down | the road as If there were Indians after | her. l vas riding ahead, and they | called to me to head her, but might | as we'll have tried to head the wind | She passed me like a shot out Of a | gun. Doctor Wright took after, caught her at the edge of town, and I directed his ''moso" to gather up the l wreck while we awaited the return of the pack mule. l could see that | bottle of ink had inside my bundle had broken and had soaked through, and 1 expected to find my writing paper and written copy all spoiled; but upon opening up my kilt after getting into the town, found much | to my relief, that my socks and hand- kerchiefs had absorbed the ink, and that the paper and copy were not dam aged. am becoming solicitous about that copy It grows as 1 go, aud against reach Minas Prietas or Ortiz twill be quite book. l have already put in too much work upon it to be willing to lose it.
 At Sahuaripa we met several Amer leans who are engaged in business or Interested in mines in the country. | Among them is Mir. Julio Schlemmer, mining engineer and surveyor, and Julio Hollenstein, a mining operator.

IMAYD0LE'S HAMMER.

best hammer that ever uas made"
Every carpenter who saw q Maydole ham,

never flew of. Hammers were divided into
two classes-1st, Maydole's; I'd, all the rest.
Plasters are separated by the same line

I'd, all the rest. When, for rheumatic pain,
q cold, q cough, kidney trouble or any
other disease or ailment that may be treated
externally, you ask for q plaster any hon
est, reputable druggist will give you q Ben
sons. He knoars it is incomparably the
best, and he assumes that you know It too.
As the name Of Maydole stood for hammers
the name of Benson stands for plasters-
the ''real thing" All the medicinal poten-
cies that are valuable j. n plaster are in

Chamberlain's Pain Balm twice with
the most remarkable results In each
case. First with rheumatism In the
shoulder, from which he suffered ex.
cruciating pain for ten days, which
was relieved with two applications
Of Pain Balm, rubbing the parts
afflicted and realizing instant benefit
and entire relief in a very short time.
Second In rheumatism In thigh joint,
almost pr~ostrating him with severe
pain, which was relieved by two mp
plicatiOns, rubbing with the linimeut
on retiring at night and getting up
free from pain. For sale by G.. II.
