stolen Horses Recovered.

Sheriff NJ. F. Shaw, of Pima county arrived in Solomonville on Monday last, and the same evening in compa- ny with Constable McCarty started out to find noted horse thief named Wilson who had stolen horses in Pima county and run them up into Graham. They found thelr man and arrested him. They also recovered 13 head of horses. The horses, 19 in number, were stolen in southern Pima, down on the Senoita, and had been brought up and were herded near w. J. Park s and Bill Glllespio's ranches; part of the horses being found in Park cor ral. Jack Wilson, the man under arrest, (better known as Black Jack ) was taken to Tucson \ Wedpesday by Sheriff SLaw and will no| doubt be gwen an opportunity to explain his conduct before the grand jury at an early date. There are rumors of oth- CT parties belng implicated in the matter, but as yet nothing definite IS known. There were 19 horses in the band when it was run off, and only 13 have been recovered. What became of the balance IS not known.-Yalley Bulletin.

The Dangers from Electric wires and Fire
 Preof Buildings in Boston.

The terrible fire which again de- stroyed large part of Boston is said to have been occasioned by an electric light wire comlng in contact with one of the Electric Time Company wires. This disaster may be expected to has ten the burying of the wires and the adoption of more perfect insulation for them, so that accidents of this character may hereafter be rendered impossible.
 The fact is startling one to con- template, that the fire which has swept out of existence 9 considerable number Of tie business honses of Bos- ton originated and extended itself in the buildings which we have been told were absolutely fire-rreef." Eyl- dently much greater attention must be gwen to the subject of rehGering buildings uncomfortable than 1t has yet received, and the use of material that will attain this object must be- come much more general than is now the case.
 It is no secret that wood and most other combustlble substances can be rendered incombustible, and the au- theritles in all large cities should pro- vide such stringent regulations re- quiring the use of only such materials m certain classes of buildings as would render the spread of fire i,A- possible.-Engineering and Mining Journal.

The report of Secretary Tracy shows that when all the vessels are finished which are now in course of construc- ton the United States navy will con sist of only eleven armored and thirty one unarmored ships. It is when these forty-two vessels, which will comprise virtually the entire naval strength of the country a year or two hence, are contrasred with the show ing of the principal nations of the old world in this particular that we real ize our weakness on the water En- gland, of course, heads the list in this respect, having 367 war vessels of all sorts, with France, Russia and Ger many following in this order, although a long way behind.

To Etiiize she Power of Niagara.
Mining and Scientific Prcss.l


 The remarkable results obtained from the Pelton wheel on the Pacific Coast has attracted the attention cf i!lany of our most eminent engineers with reference to its application to the falls above referred to, and an ex- animation of the extraordinary con dition under which many of them are being successfully operated clearly in dicates their adaptation to such pur- pose. The means of utilization being thus determined, the problem presents no insurmountabie difficulties.
 i commission from the Canadian authorities, consisting of a member of Parliament and several noted engin- eers, recently visited the Pacific Coast to investigate the merits Of thls wheel with reference to its adoption in various enterprises projected in the Provinces, but more particularly for purpose of utilizing the water power of Niagara Falls from the Canadian side. The result eff the investigation was satisfactory in the highest degree e, and will undoubtedly result ill the first attempt to make this gigantic force available for manufacturing and commercial purposes. The members of the Commission were of the bnani- nous opinion that by means of Pelton wheels It Is practicable to utilize to very considerable extent the energy these falls afford, and that the project, as it is, involves no greater engineering difficulties than are en- countered in many of the great enter priseS now under construction in various parts of he world.

Copper.

The movement toward higher val ues has not only continued, but has gathered new force during the week just past, and the tone of the whole copper market is decrdedly strong. It. may be that the amount of business transacted for a few days past has been less than previously, but this has been caused by the reluctance of sell CTS to offer rather than from any scar city of buyers and the prices of all descriptions are higher again. Tn Lake copper there is hardly anything ebtainable for immediate delivery, and for December and January delivery the quotation is nos N4s fei. penpd. The quotations for casting kinds have been somewhat irregular. as was to be expected, aud some of the inferior brands may still possibly be obtaina- at 12c., but all the best brands are now held for l25c.
 At the prices now ruling in the do mostic market no further exports are possible to Europe, as prices here are above the level of the European val ueS, and the quantities now being ex- ported are consequently on account of previous contracts at lower prices.
 Early his week some reports came from Butte Clty regarding the out break Of 8 fire in tne St. Lawrence mine, which adjoins and connects with the Anaconda mines, and It was feared that thls might lead to some interrup- ton of production in that district. The reports say the fire occurred lu the crosscpt on the 500-foot level of the St. Lawrence mlne.
 The Butte Miner says, borders were given by Supt. Mike Corroll to bulk head the drifts and close up the shafts of the Anaconda and St. Lawrence mines. The drifts of the latter as far down as the 500-foot level were bulk headed, but Tn the Anaconda the heat was so fierce as to negative any at tempt to descend below the 4Go- feet level, and accordingly the shaft was boarded oyer al that level. The con meeting drifts between the two mines were securely closed at the St. Law renee exit and all draft cut off. It was hoped to smother the fire in tlils way, but later the confined gas ex- ploded and forced the bulkheads out, thus giving tf'y fire iacca8s 10 ali the levels, where it may burn for weeks. -Englneering and Mining Journal.

Paris Exhibition Profits.
(From the London Iron.)

V A'iH N'lS 1-Fi4'i'ii AIDil.J
 The total number of paying visitors to the exhibition was 25.00O.O10, as compared with 100000 in 1878. and 8,000,000 m 1867. Of the 30,000,O0O tickets issued, 28.00O.0OO have been utilized. The theater receipts during the exhibition have been the largest on record, and he railways have also proited The receipts of the North ern Company from January 2d tc October 21St show an increase of $3,090,pQ0, and those of the Lyons Co. an increase of $3.600,000, while the Western Orleans and Southern lines have each had an increase of about g per cent. This increase will really benefit the State rather than the shareholders, who are guaranteed l per cent by the Government. The Ei,fel Tower receipts have been S1 ,3OO,- GOO, and the octroi dutIes have yielded the Paris municipality a large in crease. As to the large number of persons employed in the exhibition and in selling tickets outside, the gains of the cabmen, the sales made in the exhibition, the receipts of the restau- rants, ranoramaS, etc., and the profits or the Paris hotels and shops, as we'll as the country people supplying Paris with provisions, all this evidently amounts to very large sum. Ac- cording to the calculations of tue police, 5000000 provincials and 1,500, GOO foreigners have visited the exhi- bition. The foreigners included ESQ., 900 English, 225O00 Belgians, 1GO,OOO Germans, 56,000 Spania,ds, 52,0Oo Swiss, 38,O00 Italians, 52,OOO Aus trians, TOGO Russians, 5000 Greeks, Turks and Roumanians, $500 Portu- guese, 2500 ScandinavIans, 5000 Asiat- ics, 12,000 Algerlans and other Afri- cans, 90,000 North Americans, and 25,000 South Americans.

An g,lscrestlng sselic.

The Headlight has carefully framed and hung up over its editorial desk. a copy of the Missouri Gazette, after wards the Missouri Republican and now the St. Louis Republic. of date July 26, 1898. Vol. l, No. 3; being the third issue of this paper It is three column folio, about 12x18 inches in dimensions. The usual announcement appears at the head of the first col umn, that IS published at St. Lcuis, Louisiana, printed by Joseph Charles, Printer 10 the Territory. Terms of subscription three dollars paid in ad- vance,"
 This number is filled mainly with foreign news, under date of "London, April 23l, 18O8." There being in these days no railways, no steamships and no telegraph. this was probably considered late news, though cf events transpirlng three months prior to the date Of publication.
 It is quaint piece of newspaper architecture, and may be supposed to fairly represent the highest style of the "art preservative' of that day. To those especially, now in the newspa-
 
 per business, who remember the crude processes of printing Tn vogue before the days of railroads and telegrapbs, 1t IS an exceedingly interesting rellc of what now appears to have been a very dark era.

The contest for seats Tn the House of Representatlves are seventeen in all, an unusually large number. Some of them undoubtedly have little to recommend them, but most of them probably have been begun in good faith and are based on reason. But. whether ridiculous or the reverse, more haste should be made with tue contests than has been known n ye- cent Congresses. It is fragrant in justice, both to the contestant and the contestee, to let these cases drag along until near the close of the second ses- sion, CT to let them go over alto gether, as Eas often been done Globe Democrat.

The scheme is to construct a canal through Stafford shire, uniting with the Weaver Navi- gation at Winsford. The canal is to have breadth of 72 feet, and will be navigable by vessels of 800 tons. Hydraulic lifts will be used instead of locks. The length between WInSford and Birmingham will be 64 miles, and the whole length of the water@ay 104 miles. The expense of. construction is put down at E2, 5O0.000. A bill IS to be promoted in Parliament to enable the work to be carried out.

A solution of that should be made in about the pro- portion of one drachm of menthol to ten of alcohol. It can be applied on thin strip of cloth large enough to cover the forehead. That should be kept wet with the solution. It Is very cooling, and the effect in many cases of headache IS very agreeable from the first.
