SONORA SETTINGS.

 the Chipiona mine, near Matape in the Ures district, last week returned from the East with party of friends who are now out to the property.
 Near Soyopa the Chicago Gold Mining Company, Dr. R. c. Coy, president, is reported doing finely They a good mill and it is working profitably the ores from a good mine. It isreported that larger mill is contemplated, the produc- tive capacity of the mine having outstripped that of the mill.
 The Refugio group of mines is a very valuable property upon the west side of the Cananea, owned by Mr. Miguel Latz, of Magdalena, and his associates. The owners are making preparations to commence development work upon an exten- sive scale. The properties are within sight of the mines of the Cananea Consolidated Copper Com pany and Las Cananeas Copper Company, and are expected to be- come fully as important.
 Last Saturday Colonel Willis P. Harlow, general manager for the Yaqui Copper Company, his secre- tary, MT. Walter J. N. McCurdy, and Colonel Allen T. Bird, of THE OASIS, started out to the company's camp, beyond the Yaqui river near Suaqui de Batuc. Colonel Bird went down from Nogales Friday night and joined Colonel Harlow at Hermosillo A special car con- veyed the party to La Colorado, where four-horse carriage was awaiting them, and which started immediately, conveying the party to Matape the same day.
 Ten miles east of Matape the Minnesota * Mexico Mining X De- velopment Company are making preparation for prosecution upon an extensive scale of development work upon extensive copper prop critics with great surface showings. The main work heretofore has been building roads, constructing build ings, etc. With facilities for work completed, work will now be prose- cuted on a large scale. The com pany has some 1 300 pertenencirs, upon which there seems to be cop per almost everywhere. Mir. Mar shall P. Wright is in charge of the work. Sunday last that gentleman arrived at Hermosillo from the scene of the company's operations, which is in the Ores district. The property is known as the Quincy group ann includes eight claims.
 Mr. George Coffman president of the Kansas City Smelling * Refn- ing Company, is visiting Sonora accompanied by Mr. Malconson, an expert, and they are now out in the Ures district, at Batuc, where it is reported that they have bought the mines in the Lista Blanca noun tains known as the Batuc group, for $193,000 Mexican money. It is also stated that the Progreso prop erty has been sold to the same gen tleman for $S0,000. The first men toned properties were sold by Da- rio Calderon X Co.,, of Batu, and the Progreso by P Palafox, of Ba- tue, and F. Aguilar, of Ures. The intentions of the purchasers are not announced, but it is supposed that they will develop the mines l., ..,,I

Attorney Generals Opinion.

State Superintendent of Instruction
Pcrmeal French has received the fol-
lowing opinion from Attorney General
Martin relative to the law allowing 8
per cent OF all aportionment made to
school districts for the maintenance
of the library. Miss Permeal French.
State Superintendent of Puplic In
struction, Boise, Ida. Dear Madam:
l am in receipt Of your favor asking
my opinion as to the construction OF
the following portion Of Sec 6 Of an
Act OF the legislature, approved March
Is, 1901, towit: Provided, that at
least three per cent OF the moneys an
nually apportioned to any district
shall be applied by the trustees for the
maintenance Of school library !"
You desire to know whether or not
this applies to all funds received by a
school district. In my opinion this
provision Of the statute has no appli-
cation to funds provided by school
district from special tax voted ON
the district but only to such funds as
come from the general school taxes,
the interest on school funds, from
licenses, fines, etc."
Respectfully submitted.

ments have been sent for. There is no
direct method of communication with;

to obtain. A stage driver who arrived
at Forsythe tonight brought word that
the Cheyennes were still troublesome and
that the braves were conducting war
dances.

F. WASHINGTON, Jan. 1O.-In connection
with efforts the postoffice department
is making to expedite the delivery OF
mails in cities, a new scheme for quick
er dispatch of special delivery letters is
under consideration by Assistant Post
master General Shallenberger. This con-
templates attaching a supplemental let
ter box to the regular letter boxes on the
streets, with view to depositing therein
only the special delivery letters
This will be of much benefit to sections
Of cities remote from the postoffice, as
special delivery messengers would make
rapid round of these special delivery
boxes at frequent intervals, transferring
the ordinary letters enormously deposited
to the regular boxes, and carrying the
special deliveries to the postoftice for
postmarking and then delivering imme-
diately to the addresses.

DON'T LIKE The PICTURE
SOUTHERN WOMEN PROTEST IN
Gle TOMS CABIN
They Insist That 1t Gives to the
Risin. Generation an Erroneous
Impression of Conditions
in Slave Times.


LEXINGTON, Ky, Jan. 1O.-LeXing-
ton chapter, United Daughters of the
Confederacy. has sent written petit
ton to Charles B. Scott, manager of
the Lexington Opera house, asking that
the play "Uncle Toms Cabin" never be
played again here. They give as their
reason that the best citizens and ole
families living in and about Lexington
were once slave owners as a heritage,
not of their own choosing; that the Incl
dents of Uncle Toms Cabin are not
typical of slave life in the South, but of
isolated cases; that the production, the
play and its being advertised with blood
hounds and pictures of an old negro in
chains and a slave owner with whip in
hand, give a false idea Of the history of
the times to the children of the city,
and is direspectful to Southern gentle
men and good citizens, and their families
in this part of the country.
