New Colony For Arizona.

Leslie's Weekly for August 19 de- votes an entire page to an article with illustrations entitled. "The City ot Good will, by the Rev J. A. Geissinger pastor of the First Methodist church of Phoenix. It is an exploitation of Dr. Geissinger's plan for a colossal city in the desert near Camel Back mountain for the care of those afflicted with tuberculosis, an extensive des- cription of which was printed in the Republican some months ago. The article is illustrated with a portrait of the founder of the city, repro duction of a photograph of Camel Back and four architectural drawings showing types ot the buildings to be erected. The designs and drawings were made by L. G. Knipe, architect and structural engineer of Phoenix. The article is well written and carries with it the conviction that the model city will be an important step in tie eradication of the white plague. The system by which money is to be raised to build the city is explained fully and Leslie's Weekly, in conjunction with Governor Sloan, has agreed tc receive contributions.

COIe-Ryan People Form New Company.

Considerable speculation has arisen as to where the new company, incor- porated under the name of "Sierra Consolidated Mines Company is to base the scene ot it's operations, which is one of the Cole-Ryan cor porations. The directors of the com pany being composed of a number of prominent mining men in the Warren district and in Cananea would lead to the conclusion that it was to be in this section of the country, either in the territory of Arizona or in North ern Sonora.
 The names of the incorporators are Thomas F. Cole, Joseph B. Cotton and Richard M. Atwater, Jr. The principal place of business in the ter ritory of Arizona is given as Warren, while they reserve the right to main tain the general office in Duluth, Minnesota. The company proposes to carry on a general mining business according to the articles which were filed on the 17th inst as well as d number of other enterprises, but shall not own or operate any line of railroad in the territory of Arizona.
 The amount of the capitalization is given as S5, ,O0O,O00 divided into 500,- 900 shares of the par value of $10 each. The directors are divided into three classes, the first to hold office for one year, the second for two years and the third for three. The first class of directors is composed of L. w. Powell, of Warren; Edward J. Nancy and Stephen H. Jones, both of Duluth; the second by L. D. Ricketts and James H. Kirk, both of Cananea and G. Ashley Tomilson of Duluth, Minnesota; the third by Thomas E. Cole, Joseph B. Cotton and Richard H. Atwater, Jr., all of Duluth.
 The first officers of the company are given as Joseph B. Cotton as presi. dent; Richard M. Atwater, Jr., first vice president; Frederic R. Kennedy, as secretary; Edward J. Nancy. treas urer and Henry B. Paul. as assistant secretary.
 According to parties that are con versant with the holdings of Messrs Ricketts and Kirk in Sonora they are of the opinion that the company is formed for the purpose of taking over the holdings of these gentlemen in the vicinity of Santa Cruz, which lies between Cananea and Nogales, near the line of the railroad between these two points. According to ad- vices received recently from there Messrs. Ricketts and Kirk have been taking options on number of other holdings in that locality and will turn them over to the new company.

(These two Eskimos brought back a
letter from Dr.. Cook to Francke. dated
March II. The two men rejoined the
other four men who had been left behind.

back to the cache and got his gun, which
he had left there. and few items OF
supplies.
Provisions Not Used Up.
When asked why only a few supplies
were taken from the cache the boys
replied that only a small amount OF pro-

since they left the cache and that their
sledges still had all they could carry. so
that they could not take more.
