With Gen. Kurokis Army in the
Field, April /. via Fusan-Two de-
tachments of Japanese cavalry have
returned to the army after the most
extensive and dangerous scouting ex-
plot of the war. The detachments

As set forth in an extended series of "Wayside Notes" the clos ing days of the old year and the early days of the new were devoted by THE OASIS editor to a saddle trip through the Alamos district of Sonora, making a great circle which included in it's sweep the far famed and widely known min- eral regions which have through two and one half centuries poured forth to enrich the world a cease less flow of gold and silver, and the recently developed agricultural regions in the delta of the Mayo river, where irrigation has reclaim ed thousands of acres Of the richest and most fertile lands in the world, close to good harbor upon the gulf coast, giving to the dis trict inexhaustible resources for enrichment that will rival in their returns the magnificent and mex haustible output of it's wondrously rich and productive mines. The ADVENT OF THE "coNoUIsTA DoREsn into Sonora goes back in point of time nearly three centuries, to 1531, when Don Alvaro Nunez and a strong party of exploration pene- trated the region; but the real con- quest was not undertaken until 1884, by Don Diego Martinez de Hurteade, and completed in 1510. Even while the work of conquest was going on intrepid Jesuits spread their missions all over the state, facilitating the labors of those who bore arms in the spread of Christianity. The
 EARLIEST MINERAL DISCOVERIES
 in this part of Sonora were in the vicinity of Bayoreca, and the fam- ous Bayoreca mines were long very rich and productive. The discov- cry occurred about 1640, and the operation of the mines caused the growth of a city of 5000 or 5000 people, which was long the capital of the province. The bells hang ing in the dilapidated tower of the old ruined church show that two were cast in 1643, and the third in 1646 The town antedates those years very little.
 The famous Bayoreca mines are about two leagues south of the town, and the antique workings show they were extensively devel- oped. The deepest workings at- tained depth of about 500 feet. They are included in series of Announcements now owned by Mr. Oscar Riggs, with whom are asso- ciated Mir. J. B. Laux and other New York capitalists. The group is known as Nina Grande, Moth ing is being done at present. The antiguo workings show that the ore bodies were extensive, and dntiqua records and tradition say they were very rich in silver. Recent operations at the Quintera, Prom ontorio and Minas Nuevas prop critics near Alamos, in the

 QUINTERA MINE
 which joins the Promontorio upon the north was discovered shortly after the finding of the Promon- torio by Juan Armada, the founder of the very wealthy and widely known family of that name, and the property remained in posses sion of that family many years several generations. It has worked almost continuously from it's very discovery, and has produced many millions of dollars. It's present production is credibly reported to be 100000 to 80O000 ounces of fine silver annually. The product is sold to the National Metal Com pal V. which has an office in Ala Emos-Mr Jas. Rhew, agent.
 About eighteen years ago the Quintera passed to the ownership of a French syndicate in which the Franco-Egyptian Bank was in terested, and 1t has since been operated under that ownership. The manager is Mir. Mourgue.
 The equipment is a new hoist, bought in Denver and recently in stalled, a 20.stamp concentration mill. with six Frue vanners, and lead shelter for reducton of the concentrates to matte. A wire rope tramway conveys the ores from the mines down to the mill, distance of { of a mile. Both hoists and the tramway are operat- ed by electricity. A
 DOUBLE COMPARTMENT SHAFT has been sunk and is in operation to depth of 500 feet. Down in the mine, some distance away from the bottom of this main shaft single compartment shaft has been sunk to a further depth of 1 ,000 feet, making the total depth at- tained 1900 feet. With depth the l Quintera ores have

 rich also in silver, and to properly treat the rock new 100-ton cop- per smelter has been ordered. The stack and machinery are now en route, will shortly arrive and be at once installed and put into opera tion.
 North of the Quintera mine is the San Domingo, which under the same ownership as the Santa Fe Copper Co., corporation which is operating mines at several points in the Alamos district. The old workings upon the property pene- trated to depth of about 300 foet, and are reputed to have yielded very handsomely. A new hoist is en route and when received and installed development will be wig orously conducted, At the north end of the great Alamos lode are the

the owners VIII uOuDLlesS ma great riches in their grasp. They have done some work and developed a ledge ten to sixty feet wide, carry ing chlorides and native silver, that averages forty ounces per ton.
 North of the Nina Grande ground is Il Announcement named the Babylonia, owned by MT. Jesus J. Esquer of ,Bayoreca. It is the same ledge as the Bayoreca, and has also extensive antiguo work ings. The ores carry copper, gold and silver. Assays run as high as 20 per cent copper. 500 ounces silver and $20 gold per ton.
 About a mile and a half north west from the Nina Grande prop critics is the Tarasca, also owned by MT. Riggs and associates. They have d ledge six to eight feet in width in which are ores that yield from twenty to 300 ounces in sil- yer per ton.
 Near Vibajimori, about a league north from the Tarasca are the ruins of an old five-stamp concen- trator and smelter used by former owners of that mine, a quarter of 8 century or more ago, to reduce their ores, which is said to have been very successfully and profit ably operated.
 LOCALLY KNOWN
 as "El Cobre," at d point northwest from the Tarasca about mile is the Douglas Copper Mining Com pany's camp, Theodore Douglas, general manager. This company has been prosecuting development about three years, and has made a fine showing. It has one shaft 300 feet deep on the incline, with five levels, each extending about 200 feet northward on the ledge, all in good ore. Another shaft 1900 feet away along the ledge Is 100 feet deep, with a level 100 feet long, both in good ore. At a further distance of about 1 ,O00 feet a third shaft is down 100 feet, also in good ore. Sinking is actively progress. ing upon the first two of the shafts mentioned.
 The Douglas Company has 150 pertenencias of ground through which runs a great ledge 100 feet wide. The ore bodies exposed by the development work run to twenty feet in width and show an average of twelve per cent copper. A reduction plant for treatment of the ores will be erected in the near future.
 The camp is but fifty miles from

 The mines at Alamos have been long famous for their rich and con- tinuous production of the precious metals through a period of nearly two centuries, which yet continues with every prospect of permanence and profit through many years to come. They lie in the Alamos mountains. about two leagues west ward from the city of the same name. They areat the southern extremity of a
 GREAT MINERAL BELT,
 which extendihgin northwe$terly direction may be traced in d straight line all the way across the state of Sonora, including Boncari, Bayoreca, Santa Juliana, Bata mote, La Dura and other camps which can be named in this dis trict; the Realito, San Felipe, Providencia and others in the dis trict of Guaymas; La Barranca, Los Bronces and San Javier in the Hermosillo district, and beyond through the Sonora river mining camps to Cananea.
 The Alamos mines are in a great contact between granite and por- phyry, which can be traced in northwesterly direction through to San Javier and La Barranca, in- cluding in its course many of the mines enumerated above in the Alamos, Guaymas and Hermosillo districts. At intervals along this contact occur great ore deposits, such as have been found here in the vicinity of Alamos, at Bayo- reca, at Espiritu Realito and San Javier. The ore deposits were originally all silver bearing, but in the Quintera, which is now the deepest working they have changed to copper, and it is believed that will be the result in several of the others. The first discovery upon this great contact in the vicinity of Alamos was the

 This was obtained from opera tions conducted in a very small and desultory way, in a part of the property called Veta Grande. The mine was opened by a tunnel 1000 feet long, 400 feet below the crop pings, and was stopped out clear to the top; the entire distance, or nearly go. Below the tunnel level a winze has been sunk to a depth of the 300 feet, and stoping con ducted upon long levels between. During many years the property was owned and operated by an English company which is reputed to have taken out millions of dol lars. The machinery includes a 2O-stamp concentrating mill and lead shelter. It has been long in use and is not the most effective.
