One Of the Greatest Properties Of a
 Crest Minersl State.

AIN IibUAbtls dUQ Otlt ltihh lH expected to attract the attention of mining men and capitalists the world over. Its magnitude is not vet fully known, but enough has been disclosed to convince the owners of the property that it will be one of the greatest ever devel- oped in country of fabulous min eral wealth.
 The mine-which is really group of mines-is the Richheld, in the Ures district of Sonora, close to the southern line of the Magdalena district and tnirty-6ve miles east from Querobabi station on the Sonora railroad. There the company owns one thousand acres of mineral land, on which they have encountered great bodies of gold, silver, copper and lead ores.
 Development and exploration work has been going on at the mine for four years. During that time quarter of million dollars have been expended in uncovering and cutting into the ore bodies, to ascertain to some extent, their magnitude. No effort has been made to mine or dispose of ore and for more than two years the own CTS of the property have refused to sell stock and there IS now no stock of the Richfeld on the mar ket.
 In shafts, tunnels and crosscuts, more than two miles of under ground work has been done and so great are the ore deposits that have been shown up that their extent only can be guessed at even now.
 Two shafts are now being sunk preparatory to mining ore. Both are double compartment shafts and are already down eighty feet The Cooper shaft is being sunk on silver vein, and at a depth of two hundred feet crosscutts will be driven into the vein preparatory 10 stoping out the ore.
 The Fickes shaft, about half mile distant from the Cooper shaft, is in copper, and will be sunk 500 feet. Cross-cuts will be driven into the copper vain at depth of five hundred feet.
 In the mean time tests are being made of the ores encountered at different depths, with view to as- certaining by what process the vast deposits can be most profit able treated
 In addition to the one thousand acres of mineral land the company owns the Richfeld ranch, embrac- ing 25,572 acres of land. Besides being rich grazing land 1t has growth of oak wood of which there is sufficient amount, according to estimates made, to supply wood for smelters, concentrators, etc, for seventy-tive years. Nature also provides an abundance of water for such enterprises.
 A contract has been let by the company for the cutting and de- livering at the mine of six thou sand cords of wood, of which one thousand cords have already been delivered at the mine and the re- mainder is being delivered at the rate of three hundred cords per snonth, so that everything will be an readiness for mining and treat ing ore by the time the company as ready to install the concentrat- ing and smelling plants.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT ARRIVED

The Voyage Was Uneventfui But En joyabie, and Our Nations Head
 Grateful for Welcome,

Colon.-The first trip of an Aneri. can president outside of the bounda, ries of the United States was success. fully concluded November II, at half past one. when the battleship Louisi ana, having on board President Roose- Veit and his party, dropped anchor in the harbor of Colon. The Louisiana, which arrived ahead of schedule time, was conveyed by the Tennessee and Washington, and the three vessels an chored about a mile from the dock during a heavy rainfall.
 Owing to the fact that the Louisi- ana arrived ahead of time neither President Amador of Panama nor Chairman Shonts was on hand to wei. come President Roosevelt. They left Panama at half-past four in a special train for Colon and at halfpast s boarded the Louisiana and extended cordial greetings to Americas chief executive.
 In President Amador's party were MT. Shonts, Chief Engineer Stevens and Secretary Reed of the commission and MT. Squires, the American minis, ter to Panama During the afternoon President Roosevelt received the To- cal newspaper correspondents on board the Louisiana. He said that his voyage had been pleasant and un- eventful and expressed himself grati- fled at the welcome which the ct- zens of the isthmus are preparing for him.
 He stated that he intended to look into the Jamaica labor question and also intended to see everything possi. ble concerning the canal.
 Extensive precautions have been taken to protect President Roosevelt during the three days visit on the isthmus, and it is reported that num- Der of known anarchists have been arrested here and at Panama All steamers arriving at the isthmus are inspected and suspicious characters have been arrested and will be held in custody until President Roosevelt departs.
