TEARS MOVE POLICE.

Washington, May IA bride
and groom from Richmond spent
part Of their honeymoon in the
Washington monument yesterday
and the young man, seeing names
of persons from all parts of the
country inscribed on the white
marble walls at the top of the
shaft, started to put his own there.
Having ho pencil, he used the
feruleS6f his umbrella, and had
afsot bis initials down on the win
edow sill when the guard caught
him. An arrest followed, and
the honeymoon was continued in
the police station.
= When the fact that the twain
were newly wed became known,
the soft hearts of the police were
moved TO secure lenient dispo-
sition of the case. Ordinarily
such an offender must pay fine
of $25 or go to the work house so
days. The police lieutenant teIe-
phoned to the war department,
and described The young FOLKS,
and asked that they be left off
with a reprimand. This was
agreed to, and the young husband
and wife departed. The bride
had nearly cried her eyes out at
the prospect of losing her hus-
band.

REORGANIZATION Of MEXICOS MINING INDUSTRY

but rediscovery Many Of these have
been hidden from human sight by the
enormous mass OF detrltus washed into
them during the rainy seasons Of hun
dreds of years. while others have been
obllterated by erosion. But many there
be which have been concealed by hui
man artllce. The section Of northern
Mexico lying between the Rio Grande
ana the Central railway is credited
with possessing many a padre mine,
records Of which are preserved In old
churches, although their location is a
secret locked sometimes IN the breast
of the Indians, but more often known
TO nature alone. For instance. In one
church near III Paso Is the record OF a
"padre" mine IN which over a thousand
Indian poems shaved generation after
generation, winning millions Of dollars
worth OF gold and silver from the
depths of the earth Hundreds have
searched for this mine since It's en-
trance was lost, but none has found II,
For too many fortune hunters have the
padre mines proved fatal will-o"the-
wisps.
With the American advance however,
the menace of death from savage,
hunger or thirst Is slowly diminishing,
and we may expect revival Of the
search for the missing FL Dorados and
Bonanzas, TO say nothing Of countless
pilgrimages by tireless prospeotors,
who care not whether they come across
old mines or new ones SO long as they
hit upon gold Today over 5000 mining
titles, covering an area OF 100000 acres,
are recorded in the registration offices,
these titles being distributed over the
entire republic. There are also hum
dreds upon hundreds Of claims staked
throughout the mining districts to
which title has not as yet been per-
fected.
The Mexican government, be II
noted, is not at all averse to the in
cursion of foreigners and has given
proof Of its friendly attitude by ex-
tending TO Americans the rights en-
joyed by Mexlcans so far as mining Is
concerned Under the laws OF the
country the privilege OF prospecting and
working mines Is open to all without
the payment Of any license fee but a
fee of $40 and an annual tax to the same
amount must be paid for every claim
taken up, each claim not to cover more
than two and half acres, There Is no
limit to the number Of claims that may
be entered by any one person or cor
poration, but II the taxes are not paid
regularly and In full the property Is
liable to governmental announcement
and unpleasant and vexatious litigation
will surely follow. The development OF
the mining industry, under these con-
ditions, will obviously mean much to
the government as 1t will TO those
hardy pioneers upbullding it.

greatest mining country IN the world.
In proof Of this they point to the
present great productlyeness Of the
Mexican mines and to the rapidity with
which new mines are being registered
for operation the registration for
recent month amounting to a total OF
i6i new mines, Of which nineteen were
gold mines, forty-eight yielded gold and
silver and but forty-eight contained no
precious metal
The mineral richness Of the country

fact that mine which throughout It's

Is the Candelaria, which was opened in

bullion. After the lapse Of many years
