 An extended description will bt
 deferred until we return from Cam
 DO Santo Nifio.
 In the afternoon Colonel Harlow
 was much better and the party took
 a stroll around the town and vicin-
 ity. At one place we found our
 way crossed by an irrigation ditch
 about ten feet in width and knee
 deep. How are we to get acrossY'
 asked Wright and McCurdy simul- taneously. And they went across as if shot from a catapult. liar low had given them push-and in and over they went.
 At evening our animals were or dered in readiness for midnight.
 We had a long ride ahead of us between Suaqui de Batuc and Cam DO Santo Niho, and to traverse the worst of it with the least incon- venience we arranged to start from Suaqui as soon as the moon came up to light our way. So we were called at midnight and were soon saddled and on the road. With characteristic attention Mir. Maldo- nado had caused preparation of a good breakfast to which we did full justice before starting, and upon one of our pack animals was loaded a haversack with lunch sufficient to feed platoon of soldiers.
 As guide we had the mozo of Dr. Wright, who piloted our party about quarter of the distance, be- yond which there was only the direct trail to the camp and no danger of going astray.
 At the end of an hours ride we crossed the Yaqui river, which is now at very low stage of water less than known before in many years. The failure of the usual winter rains has been felt every where throughout the mountains. All the streams are very low, with a greatly diminished volume of water for the season, and many of the springs are completely dried up.
 After crossing the rlver the trail commenced a gradual ascent which without interruption for many miles, and then our road crossed from one ridge to another and over it, plunging down into deep cafions, and out from them again, across lofty divides, until ! finally we reached the camp on the . western crest of a mighty ridge, overlooking the river, three miles ! lway in a direct line and 4600 feet below
 Just at sunrise we reached the of the first great divide, md stopped few moments to ad hire the beauties of a lovely pano- anna spread below. Nearly two thousand feet below, the river we lad crossed made great bend, and ,eyond, nearly ten miles away, lay he smiling Batuco valley, whence ve had come, like a great emerald n massive setting, the rays of he rising sun gliding the surround ng mountain. At the lower end ge could distinguish the town of 'uaqui, and on the opposite side of he valley, league farther, the Id convent of Tepupa could be cen. Two leagues farther are Ba- uc, and at the upper end of the alley is San Pedro, but at our dis ance they were undistinguishable.
 At seven o'clock we stopped an our to rest and feed our animals

 above the line of the farthest visi
 ble, against the sky line of tn,
 eastern horizon, was plainly visibl,
 the sharp point of Mount Realito
 on the dividing line between Sono-
 ra and Chihuahua, more than one
 hundred miles away. Below us to
 the west, at depth of more than
 four thousand feet, the Yaqui
 wound its turtnous way, and be-
 yond lay another succession of un
 dulating mountain pillows, with Cerro Colorado, just eastward from
 Minas Prietas, rising above the rest. It is view well worth tra- yelling many miles to see.
 While pursuing the remainder of our journey we passed several points where similar and as magni- ficent landscape views attracted our attention and regaled our vision as We rested.
 From one point on the trail we were pointed out the Boleo mine, across deep calf on, where Doctor Wright has a force of men de- veloping a very promising prop erty and taking out good ore, run ming high in both copper and sil- yer.
 Long before we reached the camp we passed upon the property of the Yaqui Copper Company, which we had come to visit. Altogether there are 2,260 pertenencias of ground in the company's holdings, all showing copper in great quantities upon the surface, and the work done shows that the bodies are continuous to great depths. But of that later. One thing particularly noticeable is that all work done has been for utility. A good, we'll built trail permits ingress and egress into the camp. No money has been expended upon fancy roads, extensive buildings, etc, but of the $50,000 expended during the past year, except that put upon the trail, has been all put upon the heads of drills and in dynamite.
 Campo Santo Nino is situated just over the brow of one of the lofty divides we had crossed, and, as mentioned, overlooks the Yaqui 4,600 feet below. The camp is at an elevation of above 5000 feet, amid charming surroundings and a delightful climate. It is a really spot
 We were cordially received by Mir. Charles Kaiser, the assistant to Colonel Harlow, who is in charge | of the company's affairs at this end. | MT. Kaiser has been at the camp | some six months, and has in that . time accomplished world of work. 1
