A woman more selfish and vain
than Florence Roberts would be
dissatisfied with THE Miracle"
But Florence Roberts Is satisfied.
She says:
"Are we on the STAGE" she
asked. ito be denied the privilege
enjoyed by others Of having
mixed motives? Do you hold the
minister of the gospel culpable,
in return for preaching Chris
tianity and right living, he ac-
cepts a salary? Do you question
his motives because he is paid for
his work?
Let me tell you again the
story of The Miracle A good
man loves a good woman who is
also loved by a man who Is not
good. The bad man had desert
ed a girl who died. He makes
the good woman believe that IT
was his rival who deserted the
girl. In pique and anger, she
marries the bad man, though she
loves the good one.
THE wicked husband dies by
his own hand, to escape arrest
and exposure for embezzlement.

Before dying, he wrings from his
rival a promise never to tell any
one the true motive which
prompted the suicide. The widow
believes that her husband killed
himself because he had learned
that his wife loved another. 1t
weighs upon her conscience, and,
until she learns the truth, she
will not marry the man she loves.
He cannot tell her the truth be-
cause of promise given. The
truth, then, Is locked In the
breast of dead man.
1.-THE dramatist exercises his II
cense and reveals the truth to the
woman in a phychic message

miracle. But miracles do not

North, south, east and west our vast mining

activity. For long time paying shipments have
been made from each of the four mining districts
in Luna county, Cooks district north, Florida dis
trict east Tres Hermanas south and Victono dis

and are going after it.

and among the most gigantic are its untold wealth

ore was extracted many years ago. The Tres
Hemanas yield lead-siIver-goId ores as well as
zinc ores; the deposits are in part of contact-eta-
morphic origin and IN part 6ssure veins. All these
districts contain lead or Iead-znc ores as replace

TRES HERMANAS DISTRICT.
About p miles south of Deming, and 10
miles north of the Mexican boundary the small
group of mountains known as the Tres Hermanas
rises from the general level of the high plains.
The mining district Is situated IN the northern part
of the group the three peaks of which are In plain
view from Deming. The road from Deming to
the camp IS almost level and has an elevation of
1000 to 400 feet; on the east of the crags of the
Florida mountains 1t forms picturesque back
ground to the plain. According to Wheeler the
highest peak of the Tres EEemanas attains an ele-
walton of 7l50 feet. The railroad from Deming
to Eemanas station Is at the nearest point 10 miles
from the mines, which as yet are most easily ac-
cessbIe from Deming
The mines have been known for many years
and have yielded moderate production possibly
100000. The zinc ores shipped from Tres Her
manas probably contained about 30 percent zinc.
The shipments of lead-znc ores made by Dr..
Swope are stated to have contained from | | 10 40
percent of lead and ounces of silver to the ton.
They also contain up 10 10 percent of zinc. besides
4percent Of lime, 40 percent of iron. and IA per

the principal producers are reported to have yield

production up to January |, 1904. In recent years
renewed prospecting by Wyman and Corbett and
Lesbos has shown that the camp may yet re-enter

The first discovery of ore IN the Cooks Peak
region appears to have been made In 1876, but no
important locations were made until 1880, when
Taylor and Wheeler located the principal pro-

there was much activity, and the rich Oxided lead
ores were eagerly sought by the smelters The
annual production ranging up to 100000
pounds. The total production is estimated to be
about 100000. of which the Desdemona group
Is credited with 100000. the Graphic group
with $4,000, the Summit group with $35O,OOO,
