The Noche Buena Mine.

Advices from Soyopa out on the Yaqui river, are to the effect that the Noche Buena mine, in that vicinity, has made a fine show with work but little more than year, commencing in June, 1908. Six veins of ore of very high grade have been uncovered. Two of them are of unusual size. Upon the seventy-6ve foot level, where the veins mentioned have been developed it is estimated that there is sufficient ore in sight, ready for stoping to keep in opera ton goodly sized reduction plant for an entire year, and develop ment still continues. The Noche Buena Mining Company has in hand sufficient funds to erect a mill which will be done as soon as tests by competent experts can be made to determine what kind a process to install. When that is deter mined the mill will be ordered and it will be pushed to completion as rapidly as possible, while it is anti cipated that its wheels will begin turning early in the coming year.
 In addition to the property where in is the development described in the foregoing paragraph the com pany has fine placer proposition, which has been tested thoroughly and proved to be very auriferous deposit. The Noche Buena Com pany expects to have that equip ped and in operation early in De- cember Upon adjacent ground local Mexicans and Indians have been taking out as high as $5C per day in gold, and the company's ground is said to be fully as good
 Taking 1t all around the Noche Buena has every indication of be- ing a winner, sure.

MT. Temple took the wounded man to his home. The man killed was the leader of a band of petty thieves which has been operating in that vicinity, and it is believed that his death will terminate series of petty depredations which have been very annoying.

Death of Miss Alice Tener.

Advices from Los Angeles con vey the sad intelligence that Miss Alice Tener, sister of Messrs. John F. and Norman Tener, who resid- ed in Nogales several years ago, died last week from the effects of serious burns she had received some three weeks preceding. It is stated that she was cleaning pair of kid gloves with gasoline, when the fluid took fire in some way, en- veloping her in flames, burning her so seriously that her life was lost. She fingered in frightful agony during three long weeks. Miss Tener had in Nogales many warm friends who will regret ex- ceedingly to learn of her terrible death. The remains were taken east by her brother MT. Norman rener and there buried.

L. w. MIX.
rontractor for the Work of EnIarging
 penitentiary at the City of Mexico.

penitentiary for the Federal Dis rict. which is situated near the artillery barracks, close to San Lazaro and on the street car line going to the Pehon, they let, two years ago, the contract for the same to Mohler and Mix and since then Capt. l.. w. Mix bought out Mir. w. C. Mohler and is now solely in charge of the 0bras de Ampliacion de la Penitenciaria.
 His agreement with the federal government calls for the construc- ton of two wings as an addition to the penitentiary and consists of outer and inner walls, cells for PIP more prisoners and work shops to accommodate 300 men, all located within the two enclosures.
 The lower story cells are of vol Canic rock brought from the Pedre- gal lava beds and are respectively twenty-seven and half and thirty one and half inches thick. The division walls between the cells are of concrete and the same vol Canic rock, and are twelve and a half inches thick. The second story cells are of steel with brick wall on the outside, with air spaces front and rear between steel shells and the twelve inch wall. The division walls have the air space filled with dry sand to deaden the sound and expose any boring for communication The ceiling of these cells is formed of corrugated arched iron sheets.
 The foundations are of a new feature in Mexico, being of rein forced concrete very wide with two cross layers of corrugated steel bars.
 There are two work shops each subdivided into three departments. Between the two enclosing walls is an open space over fifteen meters wide, so if a prisoner succeeded in penetrating the first wall he would encounter another, a practically unsurmountable obstacle.
 Capt. Mix expects to be able to hand over the work to the govern. ment by the end of the year. At present from 250 to 300 men arc being employed upon the job and the whole work is being completed With a care and thoroughness thaf does infinite credit to the contrac tor.
 L. W. Mix has been long identi ned with federal construction worE In Mexico. In 1904 he arranged Tor certain concessions for the con aruction of railways in Sonor' and down the Pacific coast. Year before this, however, Capt. Mix ha( been familiar with Sinaloa and th ports along the coast.
 In 1905 he constructed the sew craze system for the New Orphan asylum here not only all througl the grounds but for over a mile il .ae avenues and streets to connec toe system to one of the principa ussGaharging sewer-lines.

Hospital at Esperanza.

llCndI ubOH OOll6GI uCIOH OOlup pdu1 at Esperanza, in the Yaqui delta, mention of which was made in THE OASIS couple of months ago, is approaching completion very rapidly and was opened to ser vice Wednesday of last week, the fifteenth of September.
 The structure is located in the vicinity of the company's main office at Esperanza, is of the Mis- sion style of architecture, of one story with a south front of more than one hundred feet over all It embraces two separate buildings separated by space thirteen feet wide, but all under a single roof, he open space mentioned making commodious cool and comfortable zajatan extending clear through from the south front to the extreme northern limit of the structure. The south front of each building is thirty six feet and eight inches. The more westerly of the two buildings presents a front of thirty-six feet and four inches. The other building which is deeper presents an easterly iron! of fty- four feet and four inches.
 The smaller of the two buildings embraces the office, an operating room, the private quarters of the surgeon in charge, the kitchen and the dining room, with conven- tent closets. The operating room which lies between the office and private room, is lighted by a sky light-beside the usual comple- ment of windows-throwing upon the operating table strong light, very useful at times when opera tions are performed. The operating room and office are supplied with all the latest inventions and ap- pliances of the surgical and medi- cal art. The kitchen and dining room are furnished with the besl appliances of the art culinary.
 The eastward part of the struc. ture embraces large main ward, g private ward, the nurses room bath room and toilet. The mair ward which is in front is eighteen feet and ten inches by thirty-si, feet in dimensions; and the privat, ward is fourteen feet by twenty eight feet four inches, both wei lighted and well ventilated. Tn, windows of the wards are divided longitudinally, the lower half open ing downward in such a way tha when opened they project above tn, cots yet protect the patients iron the currents of air they admit. O if it considered advisable to permi
 the air to reach the patient directly the upper half of the windows ma, be raised upward-both window swinging on hinges and opening into the room.
 Upon the north side the broaC ! porch is enclosed with wire screen . making cool and pleasant plac for convalescents to while away tn time. The nurses room is on tn south front between the main war,
 and the saj,an, and opposite tn
