THE ELECTIONS AFFAIR.


After 4 disappearance since Friday
afternoon last, NJ. Garcia, ecNnty clerk,
showed up to-day and Was arrested By
the sheriff and taken before Judge Seeds
to explain why he refused to obey the
order Of the court and assist the
newly appointed commissioners Messrs.
North and Grace, in Canvassng the cleo
ton returns. The case came on for hear
ing at $50 ?. ~, wnen the clerk,
by his attorneys, moved to quash
the attachment for his arrest on
the ground that he, the clerk, was not
party to the original mandamus proceed
ings. At I O'Clock the case WAS si)l
pending,
HE TAOS COMMISSIONERS.
Deputy L. $. Marshal Conklrn arrived
last night, having in charge the Taos
county commissioners, Alloys Scheurich
and T. X. Montya, who refused to obey
the order OF the district Judge to count the
iull election returns from that county.
lligineo Romero, the commissioner who
endeavOred to comply with the courts
order, accompanied them. This forenoon
the two commissioners were taken into
the presence Of the Judge and undertook
to explain their behavior. Their explain
alton, however, was scarcely satisfactorily,
for the court issued at once all order
that they comply forthwith with the writ
OF m8ndamus. They ara directed to
examine the poll books in the hands Of
the secretary OF the territory which were
sent down from Taos and then proceed to
canvass the entire vote OF the county,
and they are to remain in the custody OF
| the L. 5. marshal until this duty is com
piled with and proper return made to the
court, and failing to comply with such
duty they shall be confined by the U. S.
marshal in any proper place OF incarcers-
ton within the lst judicial district until
they DO comply with the order.
The chairman of the board OF county
commissioners, Mr. Scheurich, assumed
very innocent demeanor this morning,
and informed the court that he was ready
and willing to do anything the court
ordered him to do; whereupon Counsel
Tor knaebel remarked; "Ies, We know,
Mr. SCheurch, those two wicked Next
cans got you off Oh the wrong track. "
1t now remains to be seen ii Mr..
Scheurich will carry out the orders OF the
court or if only his intentions are good
and his acts the other way.

HEELS.
How they Wear. and Why.
Fron1 the Shoe and LEATHER Reporte,

From the Shoe and Leather Reporter.
The heel of shoe seldom wears away
evenly across the bottom. Generally it
wears off on the outer side first. causing the
shoe to run down on that side This is
sometimes the fault of the shoe, but more
often it results from the shape of the leg
and the manner of walking. When the
outline of the sole does not conform to the
outline of the foot there will be more or
less strain brought to bear upon the former
in walking. The foot will constantly be
trying to assume its proper position, and in
the end will force the sole to yield. thus in
clining both it and the upper toward one
side or the other.
frequently the manner IN which both sole
and heel are worn away is the result of the
wearer's mode of walking. For instance,
the man who is bow-legged naturally treads
first in walking on the outer side of the shoe.
The effect of this will be to wear off that
side in advance of the other parts. With
tho man whose knees turn inward, which is
termed knock-kneed, the effect will be the
opposite.
A man who is below the medium hight
almost always takes longer steps in proper
ton to his size than the average, for the
reason, proba ly, that the shorter ma N
lengthens his step to keep pace with one of a
higher stature, and the latter diminished.
mans shoes will wear off quickly at the
back, those of the taller with more Uniform
ity. When the legs are straight and the
toes are turned slightly outward in walk
ing, the sole-if properly shaped to the foot
will be apt to wear off evenly across the
ball, while the wear of the heel will be at
the center of the back, and will be greater
or less In proportion to the length Of the
step taken.
A row of steel nails driven in that part
OF the heel which first feels the effect of
wear is the usual remedy for these irregu-
larities, but in bad cases it will be found TO
be benefit to trim the side of the heel
which first wears away nearly straight up
and down; this, by allowing more leather
on that side, will retard, to great degree.
its ear
Steal nails at the back edge of the heels
are economical as to the leather, but when
closely set and smoothly worn they are a
source OF danger to pedestrians but little
less than the banana peel on the sidewalk.
Instances of narrow escapes from sprains
are frequently seen in which the foot, while
striking the back edge of the heel in rapii
waking, slides uncontrollably forward
leaving long scratches on the smooth flag
| ging TO show the result The longer the
step the more dangerous there is from this
| cause. A few nails, set at greater distances
apart, would insare safety by furnishing
more surface of leather, and consequently
more friction for contact with smooth
! pavements.

Mastodons Once ROamed Over the Piai-
ries of Indiana and Illinois.
Prof. John Collett continues to have
an interest in the mastodon, an animal
which no longer abonnds in this section
in sufficient numbers to be available for
trap-shooting. The professor has just
returned from visit to Western lndi-
ana and Eastern Illinois. 81 have
come" remarked he to reporter yes
terday, 'from the home of the masto-
don, creature which was one of the
recent prehistoric animals of the Wa
bash Valley. His remains are always
found on or near the surface. He en-
joyed the prairies, where grass and
tender bushes could be browsed. The
level plains about Murdoch, Newman,
and Hume, stations in Illinois on the l.,
d. & S. road, which l have just visited,
were favorite grazing grounds and were
originally studded with sloughs and
ponds of water. These animals in time
of drought would wade into the ponds
often underlaid by quicksands, and
there they would mire down. The
bones of one with eight teeth were
found two miles northeast of Murdoch
recently; remains of another were found
near Culbertson's grove, four miles
northeast of Newman's station, and re-
mains of another ten miles southwest of
Hume.
THE wonderful ditching machines"
continued the professor, (which pillow
trenches from ten to thirty feet wide
and from seven to nine feet deep, will
drain the soil and give such areation as
to destroy remains that have hitherto
been preserved in these miry places.
Mastodons have been found in Western
Indiana. There were remains of mas
todan calf discovered near Quaker
Point; also remains at Leatherwood,
and on the Raccoon, in Parke County,
and near the mouth of Otter Creek, in
Vigo County. These were all found
near the surface, and in Doggy soil, and
there is reason to suppose that the mas
todons have existed until within 1000
or 5000 years, and were contemporaries
Gus with man. The remains of some of
those found were of animals DESTROYED
by man, who set pitfalls for them and
captured them for their flesh. DR.. Koch,
of Golconda, ILL.,, in excavating for the
bones of a mastodon, found charcoal, in
dicating the use of fire to cook the meat
of the animal. Indian arrow-heads and
flint knives were also found near the
remains indicating that the flesh had
been dissected by an early race of pee

MEMORIES.

There are strains Of sweet music through mem.
DRY ringing.
Subdued in the hush of the frightening
years;
They are voices of loved ones now hushed from
their singing
DIED out in the rush Of the gathering tears.
There are perfumes so rare they vet linger
around us
And greet us again in a desolate hour:
We think of the ties of affection that bound us
AT the breath Of the rose or the Jasmine
flower.
There are voices we hear where the pine trees
are signing,
That whisper the song of a day that has fed
Ana up from our hearts come the echoes re.
plying
From memories once that we fanc:ed were
dead
We scent the wild flowers and we hear the bees
humming
And see the loved faces OF youth from affair
"Iis only wanderer lazily strumming
Some air of our childhood upon his guitar.
And We think of the past and we learn of the
present
And we dream of the life in the future to be,
AS we sit in the calm of the evening, pleasant,
And hear the wild breakers sweep in from
the sea.
Their lives linked with ours, as the moments
are fleeing
Like blossoms that grow mid the desert
their bloom
Pertaining the depths of our innermost being.
And tiinging its fragrance round even the
tomb.

A BOYS SCHOOL LIFE.
The Head Master of q Famous Institution
Expresses His Views.

A boys school life, so far as it falls
within the view of this paper, is broadly
divisible into three parts. The first of
these extends from the age of ten to
thirteen or fourteen, the second from
fourteen to sixteen, the third from six
teen to the end. In the first his educa-
ton will be limited to the subjects of
primary and universal value, and to
these treated simply and effectively.
He will learn Latin and French and
elementary mechanics, English gram
mar, history and geography, and such
simple facts of nature as can be taught
in the open air. So far he will remain
in the hands of his preparatory school
master. Between thirteen and fourteen
he will pass into the public school. If
he begins his public school life earlier,
he will be too young to bear its liberty;
If later, he will be too old to imbibe its
spirit. Soon afterward it will be neces-
sary to decide whether the literary part
of his education shall take its color
from the literature of the ancient or of
the modern world in other words,
Greek. If he learns Greek it will nee
essarily occupy much of his time in the
next two years; if not, he will expend
the time so saved upon German and adj
ditional French or mathematics. These
are the years, too, in which he will best
acquire the indispensable minimum of
scientific knowledge. But neither in
these years nor at any later time will
he be permitted to abandon the main
body of the primary subjects, although
it may happen that toward the end of
his school life he will not retain his
hold upon them all. At sixteen he will
make the great choice of his life. In
making it he will be guided by his
tastes, faculties, needs and opportuni-
ties. Whatever it be that he is led to
study in the four great educational
lines-classical, mathematical, modern
and seientific-he will devote at least
half his time to it. 1t may we'll be
hoped that an education so definite, yet
so elastic, will correspond to the large
variety of educational demands. Head

airy Review.

A KING OF METALS.
The Value of Platinum Affected by
Electric Lights.


Electric Lights.
"No enterprise in the world, said q
WE'LL known electrician yesterday, "has
increased within the last few years as
rapidly as the business of electric light
ing. The amount of money invested in
electric light plants in this country to-
day is $l2O, O00,0 600, and it was only
eleven years ago, you remember, that
, the light was first perfected. From the
few lamps burned by Edison at Menlo
Park in 1879, there have grown into
present use at least 125, 900 arc lights
and LOO, 600 incandescent lights.
"One of the most noticeable results of
this remarkable growth is the increase
in the price of platinum. Here is an
incandescent lamp. You see the short
strip of wire attached to the copper con-
ductor just at the top of the globe.
Well, that is platinum. 1t connects the
carbonizcd loop, and is ono of the abso-
! lutely Indispensable features of the
lamp, because it expands at the same
temperature and in the same proportion
as the glass globe. There have been a
good many experiments for the pur-
pose of determining a substitute for
platinum, but none has been found, the
experiments resulting, in each instance,
in the unequal expansion of the metal
and the glass, and the consequent break
ing of the globe.
unfortunately every lamp requires a
strip of this metal say unfortunately
because it has come to be extremely
valuable, and the mines are not product
i've. Moreover, they are situated in
the Ural Mountains and are practically
inaccessible. AS result of this increas-
ing demand and diminishing supply,
the price of platinum has advanced tre-
mendously, until it is now almost as
valuable as gold, Five years ago the
metal was seldom used in this country,
being employed only in the evaporating
stills for the concentration of sulphuric
acid and in the manufacture of jewelry.
1t was then to be bought in the market
for So and SIS an ounce. A year ago it
advanced to SIS an ounce, six months ago
it had increased to Sl4, and see by one
of the trade journals that it has now
gone up to $50, which is only few cents
less than gold quotations.
Platinum gets its name from the
Spaniards. AS early as the sixteenth
century it appears to have been noticed
that the gold ore in the Spanish mines
of Darien included grains of white
metal endowed with the qualities of a
noble metal, and yet distinctly different
from silver. Its expectation to Europe
was prohibited, because the Spanish
Government found that it might easily
be used in the adulteration of gold. For
this reason it did not find its way to
Europe until the middle of the last CEN
fury, when it was known as ''platina
ael Pinto'.-the little silver from the
River Pinto. Since its remarkable
chemical properties were established in
1880, it has been discovered in New
Grenada, San DominIp, California,
Borneo and in portions o: Canada. But
the chest deposits are those in the
Ural Mountains, where the metal was
discovered in 1928. and where it has
been successfully mined by the Russians
