 San Ricardo is in the Ures dis trict and is the eastern-most camp in country known as the Alameda region, which extends some ten miles to the westward, and is said to include thirty-six valuable prop critics, all of which have fine re- cords as producers of gold or sil- yer, or both metals. They include the "San Geronimo" which has been recently purchased by a gen tleman from the East named Stuart, who is preparing for the reopening of the mine; Nina del Orc" the property of the Porvenir de Sonora Mining Company, of which Mir.

From Tuape to 0pedepe and all Around a Rich and Interesting Region.
OPEDEPE. Sonora.
 December 12. 1903

Monday morning the Eth of the month l started from Tuape about the middle of the forenoon, after a very pleasant visit with Mr. Chism and Doctor Alderman.
 My route led down the San Miguel river. l logged along leisurely, because the days journey ahead was not long. passed Rodeo, Meresechie and San Juan, each but short distance more than a league apart.
 At one place 1 saw number of women and girls carrying water from spring which was upon the other side of the river. The en- graving is good representation.
 At the latter place l turned away from the river to the west ward, and after travelling a couple of miles reached the San Ricardo camp.
 There 1 found Mir. George Char ters, general manager for the Mexican Mining & De- velopment Co.,, which is now operating that rich and famous mine; Mir. Jos. de Lusignan, of No gales, who is installing and regu- lating the machinery; Mir Jerry Leahy, a well known millman who is in charge of the mill; and MT. Ed. Williams, blacksmith and machinist. Mir. George Phillips, the superintendent, had gone to Nogales after his family. He re- turned with them Wednesday.
 During the afternoon l was shown over the mill and property by MT. Charters. It is certainly a great property, and the American Mexican Mining x Development Company, of Canton, Ohio, which owns and is operating it, have richly paying enterprise through many years.
 The machinery for a 20-stamp mill has been ordered. and five stamps are now set up and Tn operation. The first work had been done two or three days be- fore my arrival, and everything was being tested and lined up for regular running. The water from the mine is sufficient to run the five stamps. To run more they will pump water from the San Miguel river, one mile and quar- ter away. As soon as possible a pipe line and pumping station will be installed, when there will be an abundant supply of water to run a mill of any capacity, and then the additional fifteen stamps will be put into the mill.
 The American-Mexican Mining x Development Company have at San Ricardo seven fine properties. embracing about sixty pertenencias of ground, which includes seven gold bearing lodges. They are dntiguas, and show ancient work lngs that go back into the days of the Spanish occupation. In recent years some of them have been also successfully worked by the old San Ricardo Company, which operated 2O-stamp mill, long since gone to ruin, and produced more than a million dollars in bullion within a very short time. But all that and

Jr. MT. Dempsey is well known in Southern Arizona and Sonora. He swas long in charge of the Prietas stores. He is assaver for the Porvenir de Sonora Mining Company, which owns and operates the "Mina del Oro." MT. Harry Alderman is also at the camp, the foreman of the mine.
 The Porvenir de Sonora Com pany includes several Nogales gentlemen. John Henderson is president and general manager: Aurelio Sandoval, treasurer; and Judson A. Elliott, secretary.
 The "Mina del Gro" includes number of rich gold lodges, in granite. Upon one of them there is shaft 160 feet deep, and upon another, one about 100 feet down. From the bottom of the deeper shaft a cross cut has opened fine body of ore in a parallel ledge.
 There is Huntington mill in operation upon the property. Scar city of water precludes its con- tinual operation. The company is arranging to establish pumping plant at Saucedo, a mile and a half distant, and lay pipe line to the mine which will assure an abundance of water for all pur- poses.
 The property is antigua, there being on all sides old workings from which ores were taken and reduced in orrdstras, the remains of two of which are close to the present mill site, right at the mine.
 Wednesday morning young John Henderson saddled a horse and accompanied me to the Amarillas ard Socorro mines. the first five, the other eight miles away. This including the San Ricardo, the Billy Bryan, the Sara. and the San Geronimo is the Alameda region. The formation is granite, and the entire region for miles seems a veritable network of veins and ledges. One can travel hardly 300 wards without encountering the croppings of good, strong veins, most of them showing rock that has every appearance of being good. In fact 1 am informed that surface assays from most any Of them yield values. Depth would probably develop good, paying gold and silver ores. It strikes the casual observer that this is a great region for prospect and develop ment work.
 About ten o'clock we reached the Amarillas camp, and were cordially welcomed by Mir. Arturo G. Cubillas, the superintendent, who showed me down into the mine and over the surface.
 The property has been recently taken over by a company Of Hermosillo gentlemen formed by Mir. Victor Aguilar and R. P. Cubillas, in conjunction with the brother of the latter, who Is in charge. The vendor, Mir. Ricardo Johnson retained a quarter inter- est of the work. There are three Announcements, viz: the "Rubefa," !" eight pertenencias; the "Aranguez," '" eight, and the "Cumbre de Anna rillas," six. A strong ledge runs the entire length of the three de- nouncements, (about mile and a half) and it is said that the ledge can be traced all the way to

A GREAT RIVER.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch. r
The river system, of the Plate, or of
the Rio de la Plata. is. one of the most
wonderful in the world. The volume
of the stream is greater than that of
the Mississippi. 1t is surpassed only
by the Amazon. 1t, drains a, basin
more than half as big as the whole
United States, and one which in fer
tility of soil and salubrity of climate
is only surpassed by the basin of the
Mississippi, and it is question
whether it has not more cultivated
territory. Upon it tens of millions of
cattle and sheep are pastured, and its
wheat fields compete with ours in the
markets of Europe. 1t has the most
extensive plains of the globe, and it
is a vast expanse of fairly good land.
1t is a white mans country. The
basin of the Amazon is tropical and
malarious. That of the Plate is large
ly in the temperate zone. It's northern
parts are like Louisiana or Florida
and in the south the summer climate
is as temperate as that Of our middle
states. u
1t is the Mississippi balm reversed.
the source. of its, rivers Aleing in the
hot country, where therefore coffee and
sugar lands and rubber ttrees, and its
mouth in the rather cool lands of
Uruguay and the Argentine noted for
their fields of wheatsaIid corn.
The vast basin is formed in the shane
of a great horseshoe, with the opening
toward the Atlantic, the Andes and
the strip of highlands which crosses
Brazil from the back and upper rim
OF the shoe, while the slightly sloping
plains of Patagonia bound it on The
south. In it are included the best of
the Argentine, all of Uruguay and
Paraguay and large portions of Bra
I'll and Bolivia. The most of it has
been built UP by the Parana or Rio
de la Plata system, and to-day these
rivers are still at their great work of
earth building.
You see TINS plainly in the Rio de
la Plata proper. 1t. is more a great
bay of liquid mud than a river. It is
10 miles wide at the Atlantic, and
narrows down to twenty-rlfhe miles at
Buenos Ayres, which is $50 miles in
land. The width at Montevideo is
about siXty-five miles. The Rio de la
Plata is so full of silt or mud that it
discolors the Atlantic for many miles
out at sea.
We noticed the change in the color
of the ocean long before we entered
its mouth, and the water seemed to
grow thicker as we sailed to Buenos
Ayres. The channel is fast filling up
with sandy mud. and the Eads jetty
system is proposed. AS it is now, the
rivers bring down a quarter of a. mill
lion tons of mud a day, and the sedi-
ment is so great that all the water
used by Buenos Ayres is filtered by
the city.
