Wealth of AIvaradO.

y telegram from Parral, Mexico,
says: The phenomenal richness of
the PalmillO mine, situated near
here, is attracting the attention of
the whole mining world. This mine
was discovered about four years ago
by Pedro Alvarado, who was at that
time workman in a mine here at 30
cents per day. He still owns the
mine, which is believed to be the
richest in the world. The American
smelling and refining company,
through its Mexican branch, the Gug-
genheim exploration company, has
just made an unsuccessful effort to
open negotiations with Alvarado to
purchase his mine.
The agent of the company asked AL
varado to name price for his mine
and the company would pay him the
cash down.
To this proposition Alvarado re-
piled: 'Let the Guggenheims name
a price for all their interests in Next
co and if it is reasonable | will buy
them. l am buying mines, not sell
ing
Alvarado has nearly a thousand
burros carrying bullion from his mine
to the railroad. At the works of the
Palmillo mine he has steel cage in
which are bars of gold and silver,
valued at $50. 600, 900. Lately new
vein has been struck in the mine
which assays about 500 gold and $500
silver per ton.
Alvarado recently offered to pay
the public debt of Mexico as doua-
ton to the government. His offer
was rejected by Minister of Finance
Limantour. He lives in palace near
Parral, and when he visits the town
he is accompanied by an armed guard
of twenty five men.

Speaking of the heavy immigration
at present pouring into the United
States an exchange says: Even more
threatening than the numbers arriv-
ing now and for some time past is
their character. They are largely from
Southern Italy and Mediterranean
countries, illiterate, superstitious,
pauperized and degraded, with no
knowledge of or regard for our insti-
tutions. An effective check can be
put on the coming of illiterates by
passing a law requiring ability to read
and write, which was unfortunately
stricken out of the senate bill at the
last session. That would bar more
than half of the most Objectionable
immigrants. If that is not sufficient
we might terminate our treaties with
the countries from which the dan
gerous classes emigrate.
The head camp of Modern Wood
men, in session at Indianapolis, has
decided to admit Virginia, Kentucky,
the District of Columbia and Ari-
IONA. Tennessee, Arkansas and Texas
were rejected. 2 TheconventioD decid-

DUMONT HAS RIVAL.

While Santos Dumont's plan of GO

by automobile, placed him at the head
of the aerialists. he Is not to be with
out rivals when the st. Louis exposi-
ton competition is held in 1904
From an exhibition of a model of a
dirigible airship given in Brooklyn
recently, Santos Dumont's greatest
rival in America for the st. Louis
medal probably will be Lawrence E.
Dare, a young Pennsylvania, grand
son of the man who was Benjamin
Franklin's secretary. While Mr.. Dare
confesses that much that is in the
Santos Dumont machines has been
helpful he claims to have originated
improvements which will place his
invention in the first rank and pro-
vide the airship that will not only be
dirigible, but will be perfectly safe
so far as human life is concerned.
A model one fourth the actual size
of the flying machine as it is desig.
mated for practical purposes was
shown to half hundred scientific and
other men interested in the problem
of aerial navigation. No ascension

mechanism. however, were put on
trial and worked perfectly.
The air propellers had a successful
test as to their carrying power against
the wind last winter when tested on
the ice on a lake at Bridgeport, y. J.
Fifteen miles an hour speed was made
against the wind. The iceboat. to
which the Dare propellers were at
tached, made as good time against the
wind as before it.
Unlike other airships, the Dare
balloon continuance is not cigar
shaped. 1t is fiat bag, with turtle
shaped back. Its mechanism, its in
ventor claims, will allow ascensions
without the least danger to human
life in case the machine does not
work properly. By means of the tur-
tie shaped back and several subordin-
ate propellers it will always be prac-
tical to make the descent in spiral
circles, thus bringing the machine
gently back to the ground. In addi-
tion to the turtle shaped gas bag and
the propellers are two straight wings
on either side, and adjustable sail at
the prov and a rudder of canvas.

ECHO FROM WRECK.

\ case involving point of law,
and one which especially concerns
railroads, will come up in the United
States circuit court in Los Angeles
on June 30 On the face of it the
case is a damage suit for so, 600 filed
by I. Holmes a former engineer on
the Santa Fe, for personal injuries
sustained in a wreck at Frauconia
station, Ariz., nearly two years ago.
The company will. it is asserted, set
up a defense following the doctrine,
which makes an employee, instead of
the employer, responsible for injuries
sustained by fellow worker, where
the cause can be laid to the careless
ness or negligence of one engaged in
contributory labor. The last legisla-
ture amended the law on this point,
which was held to be favorable to the
employer. Holmes suit was brought
under the provisions of the old law,
and both sides will fight the case, the
plaintiffs attorney desiring to estab-
lish a precedent for similar cases now
pending.

Speaking of the assessment of this
county the Tucson Star says: "Old
Yavapai county leads them all on the
assessment roll, so far as heard from.
In round numbers her assessment on
property reaches, this year, the IS, 900.
900 mark, being an increase of nearly
three millions over the assessment of
last year. This rapid and generous
growth of the tax list in our big
northern county comes largely from
the rapid increase in the development
of the mining industry, the fact of
the tax exemption of the Verde rail-
road has expired and the general
prosperity throughout the country"
Kansas seems to be enjoying an
other flood period.

Magistrate Furlong in Brooklyn
court rendered a remarkable decision
when he said: "When one woman
says another is all old maid and is
looking for man she is guilty of dis
orderly conduct. " The decision was
rendered against Mrs. Elizabeth Fitz-
gerald of Brooklyn, who was arrested
on complaint of Miss Loretta Storey.
He held Mrs. Fitzgerald. for trial.
1t is very annoying for woman not

the magistrate. Mrs. Fitzgerald's
counsel pleaded that she was only
telling the truth, and begged the mag
istrate to reconsider. THAT can not
be helped" said the magistrate, "the
truth should not always be spoken. "

was actually carried out by his

Konak with the fixed determination
of killing the royal couple. The ques-
ton of demanding the abdication of

On the contrary, the late king, per-

there is some interesting gossip afioat
in the capital respecting Perry S.

relative to an investigation made
