 line of the Cananea, Yaqui River x Pacific railway, about 100 miles from Guaymas, Is the new town of Esperanza, the site for which was laid off on lands of the Richard son Construction Company, in the month of April in the present year The site is upon a beautifully level area Gin fact it would be impossi- ble almost to find anywhere in the valley an area that is not level) and it is laid out in a very attract i've way. The blocks are S0x100 metres in dimension, including ten lots, 374x20 metres each, with an alleyway five metres in width be- tween the two tiers of lots in each block. Along those streets that will be devoted to business pur- poses the lots are narrower, fifteen occupying a front of the block in- stead of ten as in the other blocks for residence purposes. Some of the streets are twenty metres in width, others are twenty five me- tres, and yet others thirty. A commodious plaza has been set apart for public use.
 At Esperanza the Richardson Construction Company has estab- lished its principal office, and is erecting commodious buildings for it's uses and service. The hacien- da, or administration building, is large adobe building, now in course of construction, of the Mission style of architecture, 50x50 feet outside measurement, a patio of about twenty feet inserted Tn the back side of the structure. It will contain more than dozen large and spacious rooms, with large double doors and windows, open ing upon the outside of the struc- ture and the patio In the latter there will be large fountain, and palm trees, with other tropical fo- liage. Surrounding the entire house is to be a wide porch, with cement floor. Not far from the house is a comfortable bungalow built of lumber, used now for the offices, that will be the residence of the manager A high tower, rising to an elevation of thirtysix feet, surmounted by large galva- nized iron tank, supplies water for use in both the administration building and the bungalow. The water supply is pumped to the tank from a large well sixty-five feet deep. Back from the admin istration building 100 metres or more, is the ranch house of the company. where resides the fore man, and beyond that are arranged the quarters of the workmen en- ployed upon the ranch. Across the railway from the company buildings at the hacienda, and in the vicinity of the railway depot, are me stOTe, WdTthouse anu res taurant of the company, together with number of frame cottages for the use of it's employes-car- penters, clerks, blacksmiths, etc. A good substantial hotel building has been planned and will be erect ed in the near future. The build ing now used by the store and res saurant will be replaced in time as the business develops with a much larger structure, in which will be carried large stock of gen.

ity and the surrounding region. ln Inc warehouse are stored large supplies of all goods needed in the store, and all appliances needed on the work
 Upon the railroad grounds are several comfortable brick buildings, used by the railway company for the homes of the track hands, in one of which is the supply store for this section of tbe Western Commercial Company, which sup plies all the workmen along the line of the road. The depot is at present a temporary structure, bat it will be replaced in due time by commodious and elegant struc- ture of brick and stone.
 Under the system by which the Richardson Construction Company will work to colonize the great area in the Yaqui delta there will grow gradually in the surrounding region tributary to Esperanza a large population, for which the place will be the trading center; and the point will be doubtless one most excellent for business pur- poses. It is destined to healthy growth, and it will be very at tractive place, we'll built and handsome.
