The building of the branch of
tn Santa Fe, Phoel X & Pacific
railway Santa F'e system) from
Wickenburg westward to Parker
on the Colorado river, distance
of 10 miles, is progressing ra-
pidly, says Mining News. The
tracks are now laid thirty miles
out to a point near Harrisburg,
IN Yuma county. This road taps
the southwestern portion of va
vapai county and the western
portion of Maricopa, the route
following the wash between the
Harcuvar and Harqua Hala
ranges. Fer the westerly
seventy five miles the road pene-
trates the heart of Yuma county,
passing six miles to the north of
the Harrisburg camp, twenty.
two miles north of Quartzite
and twenty five miles south of
the Rogers district, which is on
the south side of the Bill
Williams Fork range. Cunning
ham pass, through the Harcuvar
range, is reached forty miles
west of the junction of the A. g.
G. and S. F. p. P. railway
tracks. The old Planet mine is
ten miles of the railroad and
Parker, the Colorado river ter
minal, is about fifteen miles dis
tant from the Bill Williams
Fork section, where numerous
copper properties have been
under development for some
time. The entire region traver-
sed by this railroad is richly
mineralIzed. High grade copper :
gold ores were shipped in the
early '70s. the ore being packed
to the Colorado river and
freighted to the coast, thence
shipped to Swansea, Wales

The unanimity with which the
nations of the earth are turning
to the United States as the world
power to become the greatest
factor in the cause of peace be-
tween Russia and Japan, and the
concensus of opinion among dip
lomatists the world over that no
nation is so we'll fitted to conduct
the delicate negotiations (which
must attend that peaca move
ment so earnestly desired by the
humanitarians of the world, must
prove gratifying to every patri-
Otic American. At this crisis IN
the affairs of the Muscovite en-
pire it is evident that great Brit
ain and France are debarred
from taking the role of peace
maker because of their alliance
with the respective belligerents.
Germany, because of the close
friendship of the Kaiser for the
Gar, would unquestionably
prove persona non grata to
Japan, and of the great powers
the United States alone remains.
Moreover, throughout the pro-
longed hostilities this country
has preserved the most perfect
neutrality between the cont, nd
ing powers, and President Roose-
welt has all along displayed a
tact which has rendered it possi-
BILE for both the Russian and
japanese diplomatic representa-
tives in Washington to frequent
the White House with entire ab-
sence of constraint or formality.
1t is also suggested by the rep
resentatives of the foreign pow
ers in Washington that Presi-
dent Roosevelt's reputation as a
champion of the square deal has
extended so far beyond the con-
fines of this country that both
Russia and Japan would expert
ence no hesitation in entrusting
their interests to his solicitous
care.

ANOTHER VICTIM
FOUND IN RENO
Waters Of the Truckee Give up
Partial Remains Of an
Unknown Man

The body of a man was found in the
Truckee about one mile below Sparks
Thursday afternoon by party of fish,
ermen. A foot incased in heavy shoe
first attracted their attention and look
ing further they discovered portions of
the booy and bones of what had once
been human being. From the shoe
found, which was of large size and
heavy. the dead man is thought to have
been a laborer. A battered hat and Chi
nese coat were found near, but no other
clew to the identity of the gruesome
find. 1t is not certain that the coat be-
longed to the dead man, as he was prob
ably not Chinaman, judging from the
large. coarse shoe. Who 1t was and how
he came to his death may always remain
mystery. In recent years the Truckee
has given up many dead man, a number
of whom have never been idntified.

MINERAL ZONE
Tonopah Linked With Delamar
by Mother Lode

Recent discoveries of rich gold mines
in the Goldreed district gives color to
the theory that the Lode has persistently
held to. viz. that the mineral zone, OF
which Tonopah Is the western terminus,
GEMS in an unbroken line to Delamar
AID on east of this place to Calliente
says the Delamar Lode We believe
that this zone averages over one hundred
miles in width and that within its con-
fines there is enough mineral wealth to
pay the worlds Indebtedness. Think OF
a stretch of country over four hundred
miles in length by one hundred and twen-
ty-five miles wide. of which there is not
one square mile that has not mineral IN
dications on the surface. An empire In
extent larger than many of the eastern
States: larger than many of the Euro-
pean principalites, and yet contained
within the limits of four counties in Ne
vada. Hundreds of millions of dollars
have already been extracted from this
zone and added to the circulating fund
of our country, and yet the wealth al
ready taken out is but a drop in the
bucket compared TO what yet remains in
this district.
The strip is virtually virgin country.
Here and there only has the prospector
struck his pick into the ground. The
mineral zone is so immense that the
twenty thousand prospectors now roam
ing over II seem few indeed to the man
trsteling from Delamar to Tonopah.
There is room for one hundred thousand
prospectors within this area. There are
many places untrodden by the foot OF
man, rich in gold. silver, lead and cop
per. The important discoveries now be-
ing made are showing a distinctly east
ern direction from Goldfeld.
Great excitement now prevails at Gold
reed only seventy-five miles from De
imar New discoveries are being made
closer and closer to this place. The pros
pectors in our own district are uncover
ing rich leads, and in the coming sum-
mer we look for one Of the greatest min
ing revivals known in the history of DE
lmar.

BEWARE OF HATFIELD
Rain Maker Said to Have His
Eye on Nevada

Charles Hatfield, who has created quite
a sensation in Los Angeles by claiming
that the recent heavy rain in that section
was due to his chemical manufactures,
has his eye on Nevada, as the following
from an interview in Los Angeles pa
per shows:
Near Reno, New, on the eastern side
of the Sierra Nevada mountains" SAID
Mr. Hatfield, there Is an arid region
about 100 miles square. 1t Is nothing
more than a desert. Rain has never fall
len there. The rain from the coast is
precpitated before reaching this area,
therefore making it dry and barren
locality. Nevada is dry because of the
intervention of these mountains. Now.
| would like nothing better than to go
to this region, or anywhere on the globe,
for that matter, and conduct a series Of
demonstrations, for l feel confident that
I could produce rain"
If Hatfield was really the cause of the
sudden downpour in Southern California,
Nevada will do well to think twice be-
fore inviting him here. Dry ground is
sometimes preferable to an inundation.

MINING IN MEXICO
Superintendent kinkead Tells Of
His Mines There

Superintendent James H. Kinkead has
sence of over two months in Me Cd
lin the States of Hidalgo and Eloro he
has seventeen of his patent milling
plants. equipped with concentrators, in
constant operation. While he established
headquarters in the City Of Mexico he
made frequent trips to the regions where
! in operation in Hidalgo are 1900 feet
above sea level and in Eloro, 10000 feet
/ above. The trips to the mines wore
made on horseback and the greater part
of his sojourn in the Mexican republic
was spent in the saddle.
Notwi hstanding the altitude of the
temperature averages 60 degrees and
fresh vegetables are obtainable at NOM
inal prices throughout the entire year.
Primitive methods still prevail in the
mining industry except in properties OPP
Grated by, foreign companies. large
majority of the employees are poems who
still lug ore and waste to the surface
in rawhide baskets. The English and
other foreign corporations operate with
costly hoist plants. Poems receive so
cents per day for their labor and MIR.
Kinkead estimates that days labor by
one white miner exceeds that of six
poems. White men employed in rum ng
receive about the same compensation as
on the Comstock. The cost of living in
frst-cass hotels in the City of Mexico
is higher than at the Palace in San
Francisco. with accommodations inferior
to the latter.

A WHITE CITY
Future Tonopah to be Built Of
Wax-Like Stone

Near Tonopah Is an inexhaustible de-
post of fair, white stone, that quarries
easily and is like wax in the moider's
hand. 1t can be used in its rougher
state or hewn to a rectillinear shape, in
either case being substantial and artis-
tic.
Some half a dozen stone structures
have already been erected of this mate
rial and they are the pride of the camp.
Pressed brick in comparison would be
fiat, tame and Improbable. There are
also number of white stone buildings
in course of construction and many,
many more are planned.
Think of the advantages. Neither heat
nor cold can penetrate. Fire cannot con-
sumo and time can but retreat vanquish-
ed from them.
The first cost is not excessive and the
first cost is all the cost. Tonopah will
be unique in construction when the tin
der boxes that now line the business
streets are replaced by stone mercantile
palaces. The season of 1905 will witness
the demolition of many of the present
fire traps and see in their stead substan-
tial and artistic stone structures, MAX
ing of Tonopah famed white city.
