PHOENIX, March 70, 1897.
In Section 5, of the Act of the

such instructions and regulations as
the Territorial Board of Managers,
hereby created, shall order, both as to
compensation and authority"
Congress and the President having
ratified the Act of the Legislature OF
Arizona, authorizing a loan foi
Worlds Fair purposes, it would seem
proper for our people to proceed &C
lively, in the work of preparing 6
suitable exhibit, in order to creditably
represent at Chicago in 1898, the
great and varied resources of the
Territory. I therefore earnestly in.
wife the active attention of people Of
Arizona to this important subject
and request that the citizens of the
different counties file recommends
tions with the Governor for the ap-
pointment of County Commissioners

easily be observed by any one who will
blow bubble and note the exertions neces-
sary to force the air into it; but a much
better way, according to Popular Science
News, which is authority for the foregoing,
to prove the existence of this pressure is to
blow bubble on the bowl of a pipe in the
usual mann er and hold the stem before a
candle flame. The bubble will be noticed
to grow cor stantly smaller, while the cur
rent of air forced out through the stem of
che pipe will have very perceptible effect
Upon the flame.
A modification of this experiment COM
municated 20 La Nature by Mr. c. V. Boys,
Of the Royal society, consists in blowing
the bubble upon large funnel shaped
tube-the mouthpiece of u cornet, for in
stance. Under these circumstances the
force of it's contraction is rendered much
more evident, and is so great that toward
he end of the experiment, rs the bubble
ecedes within the tube, the fame may be

RAILWAY LINES BENT BY EARTHQUAKE.

The effect on the railway line, as shown
IN the illu stration, was peculiar In some
places the line remained undisturbed; in
other places it was thrown into a series of
folds, horizontal bends, and sometimes
sven into vertical waves. AS to the causes
of earthquakes, Professor Milne attributes
them to steam and Interruptions in the
process of mountain formation.
Believing that earthquakes are associ-
ated with the elevation of the ground, the
professor suggests the laying down of what
would practically be a spirit level, one or
two miles IN length. By this means they
could tell whether earth tips occurred, and
whether before or after the earthquake.

A Novel Botanical Theory.

The prevalent notion that the mistletoe
is injurious to the apple or other tree on
which it grows is disputed by DR.. G. Bon
nier, the professor of botany at the Paris
Sorbonne, who maintains, not only that
this is not the case, but that it is actually
beneficial 20 its host, the relationship being
not one o. simple parasitism, but rather
one of sym biosis. Nature tells that Pro-
lessor Bonlier determined from a series of
observations on the increase in the dry
weight of the leaves, that, while in sum-
mer the nistletoe derives large portion
of its nutriment from the host, in winter
these conditions are reversed, and the in
crease in weight of the mistletoe is less
than the amount OF carbon which it has
obtained from the atmosphere-in other
words, that it gives up to its host portion
of its assinilated substance

influence of steam on Magnets.

Researches of German scientists have
shown that with long continued heating
in steam, magnets lose from 2S to 81 per
cent. of their power. If, after this, the
magnets are remagnetized, and again ex-
posed to the action of steam, only very
slight loss CT magnetic power is found to
take place According to Science the ex-
periments which have been made would
seem to warrant the conclusion, also, that
after such treatment magnet is less liable
to deteriora lion from mechanical vibration
as we'll as b sat.

A New Idea in Sinking Shafts.

A new idea in shaft sinking, originated
by an English engineer, by which it is
made posi- ole to keep the excavation free
from water, is mentioned in The Trade
Review. To do this large bore hole is
first sunk ON the site of the proposed shaft,
and pun is placed at the bottom of this
hole. Whatever water may be encoun-
tered in sir king the shaft about this hole
flows into the hole and is pumped to the
surface. While this does not obviate the
necessity OF pumping, it keeps the excava-
ton drained and free from water.

Proverbs.

Proud and naughty scorner is bis
name, who dealeth in proud wrath.
A fool uttereth all his mind, but
wise man keepeth it in till after
wards.
The thought of foolishness is sim:
and the ScOrner is an abOmination
to men.
To do justice and Judgment is
more acceptable to the Lord than
sacrifice.
AS snow in summer, and as rain
in harvest, so honor is not seemly
for fool.
Give her Of the fruit Of her hansd:
and let her own works praise her q
the gates.
The simple believeth every word;
but the prudent man looketh well
TO his going.
The king that faithfully judgeth
the poor, his throne shall be- estab-
lished for ever.
Every way of a man is right in
bis own eyes; but the Lord ponder
eth the hearts.
The righteous considereth the
cause OF the poor; but the wicked
regardeth not to know it.
He that keepeth the command
ment keepeth his own soul; but he
that dispiseth his ways shall die.
When the scorner is punished,
the simple is made wise; and when
the wise is instructed, he receiveth
knowledge.

Public Roads.

Our public road system as it now
exists is totally inadequate to the
necessities and convenience of the
public, as it seems impossible'to have
them we'll worked. Nothing is so i'm
portant to business community or
the people at large as good roads. It
would be a good idea for the Legis-
lature to enact law abolishing the
present system and authorizing the
police jury to levy a tax for said
purposes.
We would suggest the following
plan: Release everybody from road
duty and authorize the levying of s
three-dollar per capita tax on all per.
sons subject to road duty, besides
levying a one mill property tax for
such purposes, and let out the work
ing roads by contract. Under this
system we would have better roads
and at less inconvenience to the pub
lie. We hope our representatives
will give this matter their attention.

Commodore William Wallace Hun
ter, a native of New Orleans, died in
that city last Saturday, in the Goth
year of his age. To him is due the
honor of first concerning the idea of
building the first iron vessel that was
ever launched, which was built in
Pittsburg. Pa, before the. war; An
interesting story is told about how
the Commodore succeeded in getting
an iron vessel built says the New
Orleans Delta. "He thought the
matter over for years; at last he
preached the subject to the naval au-
thorities. He was called before a
committee of Congress to explain his
theories. Some members of the COM
mittee secuted the idea of iron float
ing, terming the proposition prepos-
ferrous. Hunter obtained a tub of
water and an iron wash basin and
placing the later in the water it float
ed and convinced the committee that
iron would float. He lived to see his
idea revolutionize naval architecture
both in warships and merchantmen.
