Socorro Mining and Milling Company

That the mines at Scholle are becom-

fact that during the week nine cars of
ore were shipped to the smelter, and
further that the ore now being taken

to distinguish himself but the hor-

patriotism.

In 1885 he went to Indo-C China,

Senegal and the defenses of Diego
Suarez in Madagascar.
In 1887 he became professor of
Notifications in the army school ut
Fontainebleau, and afterward he was
director of engineering for the minis

Lille and Amiens he gained intimate
knowledge of the country where
fighting is now going on.
