The adjourned meeting of the Board was held Thursday evening, Mir. Stewart from Duquesne being present. At the meeting he announced that the DHqnesne Mining & Reduction Company had formulated plans for active operations at the company's mines in the Patagonia mining dis trict Working the mines will neces- sItate the transportation of large amount of freight to and from the mines. It Is estimated that from 100 to 150 tons daily will pass over the road between Nogales anu the camp. As the county road is in poor condition and good roods will be necessary to facilitate transportation, the present county road from Nogales to Wash in : ton Camp must be put in good and serviceable condition.
 It is estimated the cost of the re- pairs on the road will amount to ST. 900 or $7, 300. The county of Sa-ta Cruz has no such sum availa ble for road purE oses, and for that reason the money must come from other sources. The county supervisors state that the county can raise 2,5O0; the Duquesne Mining & Reduction Company will subscribe g., 300 and the people of Nogales are to be asked to raise the balance of $2, 300. It is estimated that, yearly, $l.000,0o0 worth of freight will pass over the road to and from the camp, by way of Nogales.

CHURCHES TO UNITE.

The most important piece of news
OF the week is the preliminary ar
rangements which Zion Baptist Church
and Central Baptist Church are maxi
ing to reunite and form one great
church. These two congregations.
which are among the greatest of the
denomination in the West, have sepa-
rately made much progress during the
past years. and now are considering
the advantages Of union. Together
they will have nearly a thousand mem
bers. the greatest membership in the
West. They will be the owners Of two
valuable pieces of real estate, both sit
uated on corner lots. the one Twenti-
eth and Arapahoe streets and the 9TH
er Twentyfourth and California. The
members who favor the idea contem-
plate that the two churches united
would be able to erect structure for
worship that would cost $4,000 and
eclipse anything In this section.
