MEDIAEVkL PAGEANT
 IS REPRODUCED

BERLIN, MaE 13.-The emperor and empress, attended by large reti- nue, today were present at the medi- aeval pageant held to mark the open ing of the reconstructed fortress of Hohkoenigsburg. The ancient keep, which lies in the heart of the Vosges mountains, was first built by prince of Austria, changed hands many times during the thirty years war, and finally came into possession of the neighboring town of Schlettstadt, which gave it to Emperor William. The latter had it rebuilt in it's origi- nal condition under the direction of the Berlin architect Bodo Ebhardt.
 Today's ceremonies reproduced the formalities used at one of the changes of possession when the three sons of a knight of Sickingen were invested with the estate. The chief feature of the pageant was a proces- sion up the winding road leading to the fortress, with the three knights in full panoply riding at it's head and a splendid retinue of equerries, ban ner bearers, men at arms, archers. and varlets in the costume of the time fol lowing them.

THE PARRAL DISTRICT
 ATTRACTING ATTENTION
Former Opinion That High Grade Ores Do Not Go Down
 Has Been DispelIed.

CHIHUAHUA, May 12.-The Ron cesvalles section in the Parral dis trict about 20 kilometers from Parral is attracting much attention from min ing men and considerable work is be- ing done there. .t is said that the former opinion that the high values did not go down has been dispelled. especially by lucky Pedro Alvarado who owns the Palmilla at Parral. He is said to be shipping high grade sil- yer ore running as high as 3 1-2 kil0s to the ton from his Maria mine at Roncesyalles and which Is gotten at depth of 300 feet and over from his maria mine.
 Alvarado has practically taken up his residence at his Ronees valles property. He has erected a residence office buildings, bodegas and a ware house at the railway station
 It is stated that Alvarado and Is. nacio Gllardo who owns the Maria property have just leased the Cerro Colorado Co.'S. mill to treat their low grade ores. The mill Is kilemeters from the mine. They are planning the erection of a cyanide plant to supple ment this mill which only has amalga- nation and concentration process at present. They have erected new hoist ing machinery and are said to have made a contract with the Torreon smelter to treat 50,000 tons of the bet ter grade ore.
 The Pianteada mine belonging to Alvarado is said to be in good ore from a vein 30 feet wide. The Sul- tana is another property which he is working and 1t, also. Is said to be iE good ore.
 The Mecatona Consolidated com pany, wm. H. Medley, president is working a property adjoining the Pla- teada on the south and struck high grade ore about a month ago. The vein Is said to be more than 30 feet wide Four shafts are said to bs in good ore.

LETTER FROM YAoUiS
 OFFESlNG 0VERTURES
Chief Says They Are Ready to
 Surrender Arms.

For some time IL mas been known that the Yaquis in the field wer- making overtures for peace and that the military authorities demanded the surrender of arms with the hostiles. The mayor of Guaymas has received telegram from the Yaqui country as follows:
 "Bacetete, May 7.-The rebels with their chief, Luis Brule, have submit ted to the government They are gathering to deliver their arms. notify you for information and pleas ure.
 CAPT. LUIS MEDINA BARRON"
 It cannot yet be stated positively Shat any great number will surrender to the troops but it is the general opinion that hostilities will cease. Those known to have been concernec in ou4rages will naturally keep out of the hands of the authorities but with travel throughout the richest mining and agricultural part of Sonora once more safe. these industries will soon attain large proportions
