 We reached Suaqui at evening and were received with open-armed hospitality by Mir NJ. M Maldona- do, the principal merchant of the place, who has heretofore been mentioned in the columns of TIE OASIS. Mir Maldonado and his amiable and charming wife make pleasant the stay in Suaqui of all travellers, and are unceasing in their efforts to make comfortable those who accept their hospitality Beside an extensive merchandising business, dealing in mining sup plies, provisions, clothing, etc, Mir.

 an immense penstock, which will
 be especially constructed for the purpose, the water will fall through
 immense pipes upon powerful
 ater-wheels at the power house,
 where it will drive great dynamos which will furnish electricity to drive motors placed wherever need- ed in the mines and at the reduc- tion works.
 Oar visit was timed at the lowest stage of water in the river, and we found a flow of fully 100000 miners inches-sulficient with the fall 1t will be given to generate power to drive all the machinery to extract and reduce several thousand tons of ore daily. Several views of the river were taken by MT. Kaiser, who is an accomplished photo grapher. In two of them Colonel Harlow and myself rode through the stream mounted, and found water so deep that the animals had to swim. My animal was averse to swimming, and found that by standing on his hind feet he could touch bottom, and he raised him self in the water plunging me into the stream. Before 1 got out and got out the animal, l was satisfied that my original estimate of the volume of water was far too small. l am now sure that the flow meas ures fully one million miners in- ches.

 The Batuc valley is very fertile spot comprising some 12,000 acres of land irrigated with water from the Moctezuma river, which joins the Yaqui very short way below Suaqui. The soil is very fertile. Mir. II. E. King, who owns about twenty acres, informed me that from twenty-five pounds of seed potatoes, he raised 800 pounds--a yield of thirty-two fold.
 Wednesday afternoon we un- packed our photographic apparatus md went down to the Yaqui river to get some views, showing the vol lme of water which may be utilized for power.

MT. Arvizu conducts an extensive mercantile house, and is besides the proprietor of . Uindteri0, manu- facturng mezcal of an excellent quality. The monthly output amounts to about 900 gallons. MT. Arvizu is a regular reader of TIE OASIS, and was very complimentary in his estimate of the paper.
 Thursday morning our party started upon the return trip accom- panied by MT. Chas. A. Kaiser, assistant to Colonel Harlow in the management of the Yaqui Copper Company, and Mir. H. E. King, of Suaqui the Batuc. The two gentle men named accompanied us as far as Matape.
 It was the day for the semi weekly mail, and Mir. Kaiser and went up to Batuc to intercept the mail-carrier at that place, and get the letters for Campo Santo Nirio, while Colonel Harlow and Mir. Me Curdy, with MT. King, took the direct trail for Matape.

 also a freighting outfit and saddle

 We remained at Suaqui a day to transact some business and look around generally. 1 took adyan- tage of the opportunity to look over the Touring mill It is q handsome little plant, with a daily capacity of sixty barrels of flour. Mr Maldonado explained that as the wheat crop of the valley Is neces sarily limited there Is no need of q large mill. This one looks more like model than a real mill, but it is perfect in every appointment. The power is supplied by fine 30-H. P. engine and 35-H. P. boiler, new and of the latest pat terms. Mir. Maldonado stated that the firm intend adding to the plant a small lixiviation works for re- ducing ores, the power capacity be- ing sufficient for running both, and 1 the wheat grinding season being short.

An Account Of the Return Trip From
 The Ysqui River.

The visit of a week by TIE OASIS man at Campo Santo Niho, the camp of the Yaqui Copper Com pany, was devoted to an examina- tion and study of the mineral bearing lodges and formation, and, as the work progressed, he found more each day to arouse his admiration and wonder, until he could find no language for descrip- tion, save that of the Queen of Sheba after she had witnessed the splendor of the city of Jerusalem

plant winch reduces silver ores rom mines in Lista Blanca noun tam, lofty peak rising on the other side of the Moctezuma river, eastward from the town. Mir. Duarte also conducts large mer- cantile house. Both gentlemen are Interested in some of the mines mentioned. They are the proper ties recently bonded for the Amer ican Smelting& x Refining Company of Omaha, by Messrs. George Golf man and James Malcomson, whose visit was noted in the first draft of "Wayside Notes" published in TIE OASIS week ago. The properties included are the San Francisco, El Porvenir, Santa Gertrudis, La Glo- ria, La Colorado and El Potosi, all well developed, and seven pros poets aggregating sixty-four perte- nencias. The mines are antiguas and were successfully worked by the Spaniards many years ago. They are rich in high grade silver ores, and to this day have been very profitably worked in a small way. With heavy capital and modern machinery they will no doubt become great mines and create here a big industry. The purchase price nominated in the bond is stated to be $225, 900, Mex ican money.
 The gentlemen gave me some very handsome silver specimens for TIE OASIS cabinet, the ores consist ing principally of chloride of silver with native silver in wires and sprays showing all over the rock.
 We took advantage of our stay to take some excellent negatives of the big church, a handsome stone

 play of reds and greens resemble
 more the handiwork of a decorative
 painter, lavish in the use of color,
 than the work of Dame Nature.
 Beside the immense lodges, traced several miles, and with workings at various points, there are numerous smaller lodges bearing all sorts of minerals, to which no attention has been paid. Nor will they be in many years. A colossal reduction plant working through century or more will not work out the big lodges The prediction Is ventured that, like the Cornwall mining re- zion, and some other mining re- gions in Saxony and Spain, which have been continuously worked a thousand years, and are still work ing, Campo Santo Nino, founded in the opening years of the twentieth century, will be still the center of a great mining industry when the thirtieth century shall have rolled around.
 But all these matters are fully set forth in an extended descrip- tion of the great property which appears upon the first and follow ing pages of this issue THE OASIS.
 Upon the afternoon of the 9th of May our party left Campo Santo Nifio and rode to Suaqui de Batuc The trail between the camp and the town winds around behind the Choncaca mountain, and stretches out a distance said to be seven l leagues, but which deponent is willing to declare is fully thirty miles.

London, Aug. 6.-The emphatic de-

three o'clock this afternoon, and his
train is due to arrive in London at half
