Valparaiso, Aug. 26.-As the result
of the splendid courage of the people,
and with the cooperation of the city
government. Valparaiso will be re-
built within few years on finer and
more beautiful lines than before the
disaster OF. Aug. 16.

quake and return tn their houses. AL
most all the walls are cracked, but
there was no violent earth tremors
during the night or day. Many of the
people had to walk long distances,
carrying their bed clothes on their
shoulders.
Blow Up Damaged Buildings.
There are no confagrations, but the
blowing up of damaged and dangerous
structures with dynamite continues,
and loud explosions are frequently
heard. Otherwise the town has as,
sumed an almost nominal appearance.
Many business houses have been re-
opened.
The residences on Allegro and Victo-
ria hills. occupied principally by
Americans, Englishmen and Germans,
suffered comparatively little damage.
Entire streets have practically been
wiped out.
One Thousand Still in Ruins.
One thousand of those killed by the
earthquake have been buried and
there are more than thousand
corpses beneath the ruins.
Provisions are abundant. Several
of the consuls here have received or
ders from their governments to send
home such of their countrymen as
have not the means to pay their own
passage. Sheds are being construct
ed for the sheltering of the destitute.
Government engineers from other
provinces have been ordered to come
to Valparaiso to assist in making
plans for the reconstruction of the
city. Summary punishment is melted
out to those who are caught stealing
and it has stopped robberies.

From a credible source it is learned that Mir. R. R. Richardson of Patagonia, has closed a deal with Mir. w. c. Greene, for the sale of the R. R. R. Mine, adjacent to the Worlds Fair mine in the Harshaw district. The deal was nego tiated by Mr. Ben Heney, of Tucson. The Three R's is a very valuable property, with real in- trinsic merit, and in the hands of Greene it will develop to become a great producer; and that within a very short time.

SANTA CRUZ COUNTY.

the Patagonia mountains last week remarked to TIE OASIS man Mon day that "the Mowry is running through the reduction plant some very high grade ore, and turning out bullion to beat the band"
 From the Alto Camp, in the Santa Rita mountains comes a well authenticated report that there was struck in the lower tun- nel, one day last week large body of high grade ore, and that in con- sequence all the camp were in a very hilarious mood.
 The recent shipment of five tons of ore from the mines of the Ma tional Consolidated Mining Con- pany netted the company a frac- tion over ninety-nine dollars, be- ing about twenty dollars per ton. And in the properties that yielded those ores there are thousands of tons just like that shipped. Mines which yield shipping ores that will net twenty dollars per ton, with lots of them, are pretty good properties; and the lncky holders in National Consolidated are to be congratulated Their properties are within eight miles ot Nogales, on the west side of the Patagonia mountains.
 Monday Frank and Josephine Powers entered suit on Santa Cruz County and Con O'Keefe, as tax collector, and served an injunction restraining collection of the taxes charged against the Worlds Fair mines, under the assessment of $50,00 as capitalized by the board at the time of the equalization of taxes. It will be recollected that the assessor put valuation of $500, ,000 on the properties, and that ane was enjoined from selling them for the taxes. That iniunc- titSn was dissolved, with the under standing that the board of equali- z&tion should take cognizance of the matter. That was done in re- ;guiar course, and 1t seems that the Powers are yet dissatisfied with the assessment, and seek to have the courts decree an additional reduc- fion.
 There is a report that the gen eral government has set apart the 'Tumacacori forest reserve in San u4 Cruz county, covering all the u4gion west of the railway and west of the Baca float grant, between the international line and the Santa Rita forest reserve; and that near the west line of that is an- other reserve, recently created, named the Babaquivari forest re- serve, which is supposed to take in the rest of the county. The maps and proclamations declaring the reservations mentioned are not yet public property, and as yet there is no absolutely definite knowledge of the limits of the new reserves; but at the office of the forest re- serve supervisor in Tucson citizens have been given information that accords with the foregoing.
