It is reported that the able director of the school, Lieut. Col.

In certain old records of the early missions mention is made of two certain lost mines. The names under which they are recorded, like tbe names of most of the missions established under the Spanish crown, do not correspond with any known landmarks tpday and hence only relative location can be used as a basis for exploration. When the 8an Pedro mine, located south of Nacoxarl, was discovered some years ago, with ita old underground workings. It Is firmly believed that one of the two lost mines had been discovered. Now It seems probable that tbe second also has been located and in tbe belt indicated in the ancient documents. Even if the second of the famous lost mines has not been discovered an antlgua mine of great age has been found, with proofs enough to indicate that It has not been worked tor many years. The discovery waa made by John Gnllfoyle, a . pioneer mining prospector of Kaco-xartWhen out west of Nacoxarl about ten miles he came across a piece of detached ore, which he picked up and examined. He spent many days looking over the neighboring ledges in the hope of coming across the mother lode. But hla search waa in vain. Meantime he brought in the specimen of ore and was surprised to find that it ran 1,170 ounces of silver to the ton. with good values In gold. This assay ran ao high that he returned to tbe district and continued Jils search. While using a steel in a creek bottom he found rock almost at the surface, but continuing hla soundings he suddenly struck a spot where the steel sank several feet Gnllfoyle knew that the rock .formation could not have ended ao abruptly and he began to excavate. He uncovered a long cut In the solid rock of the creek bed which held down stream and which could not have been cut there when the water was flowing in the present creek bed. As he progressed be found old stone Implements, including stone hammers, hatchets, and finally he came across a great ancient mateta or stone bowl in which the ancient workers pulrerixed the na well-know- n 1 k Libby Chicago Fop Rhea autism Mn oat pita.

FOUND THE LOST MINE Mexico, Libby, McNeill tive ores before smelting in their crude dobe fun naces. Later he uncovered matetas, all made of a bard flint rock, which must have been brought Into the district from a considerable distance, as there is no flint of this hardness near the mine. After pursuing his work for several days, the drift in the rock led Into the ore ledge, but the old workings were found to be closed up solid with silt Guilfoyle pursued his investigation and found under-the- . soil .on the creek upiandjthe remains of an old slag dump. As is customary with tbe prospectors in Sonora, Guilfoyle at once had this slag assayed. On account of the primitive methods of smelting employed by the ancient workmen tbe slag found on these old dumps is usually rich enough to be worked over again in the modern smelters,1 which leave nothing of value in the slag, but, strange to note, in this case the alag was found to be absolutely worthless. Indicating that at this mine the pulverising of the ore had assisted in the extraction of the metal values The antique smelters also knew a lot about the use of certain chemicals in the extraction of metal from the ore and at this mine probably one of those processes was used In connection with the furnace, only fragments of the foundation of which were found by excavation. Tbe finding of the atone tools has caused considerable Interest among those of an archaeolog leal turn of mind. The Spaniards were experts in the manufacture' of steel, so that tbe tools were not used by them.' The supposition is that an Indian tribe worked this mine and that this tribe ' probably operated following the Invasion and occupation of the Spanish adventurers. It is well known that there is a long gap between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries where tbe history of Old Mexico ana that district now including a and New Mexico is missing, probably because the missionaries, finding that the crown of Bpain robbed every mine reported, ceased to make report of them. In 1720 the Indians killed all the mine workers in Sonora and Arizona and many mines abandoned at that time have been lost to the world. Sonora has many mines which, on opening, are found to be antlguas and many of them are very rich. Arl-son- System Required. Clerk May I have a days leave tomorrow, sir?
