SHENANDOAH. PA. August e-Wil-
liam Stein. the State mine inspector for
the Shenandoah region. to-day announc-
ed that five collieries under his juris-
diction, which have an estimated total
value of s1,5ooo0o, have been rendered

and have been permanently abandoned
by the companies owning them.
MT. Stein estimates that out Of the IS
collieries in his district, only IA are in
condition for immediate operation if the
strike were ended. The abandonment of
the five collieries will compel 10000 mine
workers to seek employment elsewhere.

patients should be sent to the arid re-
gions so soon as there is evidence of in
fiction from the tubercle bacillus, and
should be made to remain there until
they are well, or until it is apparent that
the case is hopeless.
"Many physicians in the east order
patients to California for the winter,
apparently with view of sending them
to a dry climate The relative humidity
in southern California is as great, and
in some instances greater, than that os
the Atlantic coast, and many of the best
physicians in California regularly send
their tubercular and asthnatic patients
to Tucson. California is a beautiful
country, but the fogs which come In
rom the sea, and the emanations from
the vast irrigated regions, make 1t far
inferior to the inland desert regions for
phthisical patients. think it may be
assumed as a general rule that wher-
ever there is irrigation there is high
degree of relative humidity, and patients
suffering from pulmonary phthisis
should never be sent to an irrigated dis
trict. Indeed, some of the California
physicians have declared that irrigation
and malaria go together
"The city of Tucson has, in my opin-
ion, advantages as health resort
which can not be equalled anywhere In
North America. / know of no locality
where such a moderate winter climate
and such low degree of relative humid.
itv are combined with tie same latitude
and altitude. It Is no longer considered
imperative to send tuberculaT patients
to an altitude of 5 ZOO feet, or over. In
fact, clinical experience has proven that
more frequently patients required to be
sent to an altitude or less, rather than
more than 8, 900 feet. The altitude of
| Tucson is z, 400 feet. and that seems to
be amply high for all but the most ex-
! ceptional cases. The city is situated In
a basin near the underground Santa
Cruz river. 1t is completely walled in
by massive mountain ranges. To the
north is the Santa Catalina range; to
the east, the Rincon; to the SOUTH the
Santa Rita; and on the west, the Tue
son. Each of these ranges has an alti-
tude of 900 feet at least. Mount Le-
mon. the highest peak of the Catalinas,
has an elevation of 10000 feet, and
Mount Wrightson in the Santa Ritas,
reaches an altitude of nearly 11,0O0
| feet.
"The scenery at Tucson is as impress
sive as anywhere in the Rocky noun
tains, and the gorgeous sunrise and sum
set beggar description.
During the nine months, October to
June, inclusive, 1S94-5, there were but
twenty-five cloudy days, and nine OF

Wbere the Climate is pure
Hnd the Hir is Balmy.&

Exceedingly Small Rainfall.-At Tue
son the rainfall for the whole year is only
about clever inches. Some years it is
not even as much as that. During the
uine months, October to June inclusive,
lS94-5 there were but twenty-five cloudy
DAYS end nine of those were in one
month
Zen. .perature.-During the months OF
une, July and August the average tenn
perature is about 80 degrees, but there
so little humidity in the atmosphere
that no inconvenience is experienced.
There being but limited irrigation in the
,eighborhood of Tncson there is no
humidity produced in that way, as is
notably the case in the neighborhood of
Phoenix, where agricultural develop
ment has through the aid of irrigation
reached great stage, The fall, winter
and spring months can be compared
with the Italian CLINE Flowers bloom
during the entire winter months.
Wonderful Dryness of Climate.-There
Is nothing more remarkable about the
| climate of Tucson than it's dryness. 1t
is phenominal. There is no such thing as
what is called sultrv weather as in the
east. A recent visitor to Tues on joking
ly remarked that mot even the rains
seemed damp" 1t is fact that the eff
feet of heavy shower is observable for
but a few hours. III this dry climate
sunstrokes are unknown. The dry air
induces exceedingly rapid evaporation of
the abundant perspiration. AS mat
ter of course the supply of fluid must be
deal of water here.
Good Water at Tucson.-Everyone is
aware of the importance of good water,
and this Tucson certainly hase> More
over, there are two ice factories which
supply any quantity of beautiful ice.
Effect of dry Climate on Temperature
Another effect of the extremely dry cli-
mate is that the sensible temperature is
tar less than that recorded by the ther.
mometer would indicate. Some claim
that there is a difference of as mich as
{ fifteen degrees between the sensible tenn
perature and that recorded by the ther
mometer.

Location of Tucson.-Imnediatcly on
the line of tGS' 55atffern Pacific K. K. IN
the Southern part of the Territory OF
Arizona, and on the edge OF the Santa
Cruz Valley, lies the City OF Tucson.
That it was first settled several centur-
les ago has little to do with what we
have to say here, but yet its story tull
of adventure and romance lends an IN
describable charm to the old town.
Evidences of Thrift.-Its antiquities
are, however, fast disappearing before
the march of progress. The adobe Waiis
that formed the battlements OF the old
Mexican Pueblo have crumbled away
and the mission ruins are falllng co
pieces. Prominent public buildings
churches, stores and handsome modern
residences have been erected with beautf-
full gardens, flowers and shrubbery sur
rounding many of the latter. Old streets
nave been graded, new ones laid out ana
other impro vements made which give
thrifty appearance to the CITY.

The Tucson citizen., 1902-09-13

we did not have brilliant sunshine at
some time during the dav. Even more
than Egypt, anywhere north of Luxor,
Arizona is the land of the sunshine.
"The nights throughout the winter are
apt to be cool enough for wood nres
and blankets. Half the time an over
coat is not needed during the day, but it
is never prudent for stranger to be
without one at hand.
The atmosphere is singularly clear,
tonic land dry. l have never seen it
clearer anywhere in the world. 1t seems
to have about the same bracing and ex
hilarating qualities as the air of the
great Sahara in northern Africa or OF
the desert about Mount Sinai, in Arabia
Patraea. It is much drier than any part
of the valley of the Nile north of Gatar-
act. 1t seems to me about the same in
quality as the air on the Nile between
Assouan and Wady Halfa, but some.
what cooler.
GAS to food, there is plenty, and it is
good. From here the markets ofLos
Angeles, and even of d. nvei are largely
supplied. Good beef, mutton and poul-
try are plenty and cheap. Quail, ducks
and venison from the vicinity can also
be had. Vegetables and fruits are abund'
ant in their season, and sometimes the
season is a long one. 1t is the one coun-

"The man who goes to any consider

southwest derived from novels, or from
The Arizona Kicker, will be greatly mys-
i tilted. He will find as many churches
as in towns corresponding sizein Penn
sylvania or Ohio, and probably more
school houses, and yet he will find plenty
of liquor shops, too, and gambling
houses, and yet he will see little disorder
unless he hunts late at night for it, and
he will find community OF ten thou
sand people requiring in the daytime
only one policeman. and very little oc
cupation for him"
F., DR.. A. w. Olcott, health officer of Tue
son, says:-"The climate of Tucson is
characterized by pure, dry, invigorating
air; a small amount of rainfall and ar
ever-shining sun. 1t is surrounded by
4 mountains which cut off the cbillins
winds of winter, and the dreaded sane
storms of most arid regions. Its south
ern position gives it a mild winter eli
mate. These conditions render pleasant
an out-of-door life the entire year, an(
permit those suffering from lung ant
bronchial diseases daily exercise and lif
in the open air. This treatment, in spit
of numberless cures for consumption, ex
plotted monthly, stands first in the con
hdence of the people and of the medica
: profession as the best single mean

luries and wounds heal very rapidly;
contagious diseases are usually very
mild. There has been no epidemic, ex-
cept in whooping cough. for years.
"The winter months, from the middle

bright sunshiny day succeeds another;

it is Joy to live.

case that did not get we'll nor have
known of one in the second stage that

from raising my voice against the outs
rage of sending advanced cases to this
or other sections to die among strang-
ers."
DR.. Fl. w. Fenner, of Tucson, Surgeon
of the Southern Pacific K. K, says
Tucson is a city of 10000 inhabitants,
on the main line of the Southern PacitlC
Railway, altitude 2,4OO feet above the
sea level. Tucson is one of the Oldest
settlements made by the Spanish con-
uuerors. It is now the commercial and
railroad center of Southern Arizona. The
climate is exceedingly dry and braclng,
the humidity being exceedingly low; the
yearly minimum and maximum beng
| 26o and So respectively. The ralnfall
is small and but little irrigation is car
ried on. The water supply is excellent
! The summers are long. the tnermoInetef
ranges high, but the low degree of ofhumid-
| ity makes the clear warmth tolerable
and the most healthful part of the year
! Sunstrokes and heat prostrat1ons are
unknown. The climate of Tucson has
been found by experience to be particui
arly beneficial to most cases of pulnon
airy phthisis. especially those OF the
earlier or pre-tubercular periods.
DIR. Mark A. Rogers, of Tucson, says:
MY experience has impressed upor
me the necessity for outdoor life in th'
treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. Z
order that the patient may live contin
uously in the open air for period otsev
eral months, or, for that matter, for
year, or several years, climate is re
quired which is continuously warm ant
dry. Such a climate the United State
does not possess, but the nearest ap
proach to it is Arizona.
