Electricity and Plant Growth.

Prof. G. ID. Warner of Amherst
has telegraphed to Lieut.. Peary that
he will be unable to go with him on
his next expedition to northern
Greenland. The adjustment of the
fire insurance on his house and other
business matters render it impossi-
BILE for him to go. The professor
will retain his position at the col
lege. A letter of regret was received
from Lieut.. Peary, who laments the
fastest decision Of the professor, for
he is peculiarly fitted for the posi-
ton. Prof. Warner expects now to
stay around Amherst this summer
and continue some experiments that
he has under way. 1t is one Of his
theories that electricity has to do
with the growth and development
of plants, and he has about $500
worth of instruments with which he
is conducting his experiments. He
has two plots OF ground sown with
rows of turnips, radishes, onions,
beets and carrots. The seed was
sown in both plots the 10th and no
fertilizer had been used. The vege-
tables OF one plot are growing with
the aid of electricity, and those of
the other without. Prof. Warner
expects to prove that electricity de-
composes the plant food so that the
plant may take the food more readi-
ly, and consequently attain higher
degree of development. He began
by using 10 amperes of electricity,
and has now run up to p, but will
only have used so amperes by the
time the plants have attained their
growth. The electricity grown rad
ish is at present much larger and
fuller than the one grown without
electricity, and the leltuces will have
larger and healthier heads. The
current is turned on for only a few
hours at night while the dynamo at
the main electric-light station is in
action.

" Charge Him in the Bill"


1t was in the days when oil was
struck in Pennsylvania that one
lucky possessor Of some valuable
land sold it at an excellent bargain.
He had long had a desire to visit
Europe, and as his present means
enabled him to crafty his wish, it
was not long before he was on one
of the ocean liners ploughing his
way to the old world.
He did England and Ireland in
first-class style, acquiring fund OF
experience from contact with land
lords and others that was certainly
valuable, If only for what it cost him
to acquire it. Learning what he did
at the price among those who spoke
his own language, it made him in a
measure curious to see how the
counterparts of these gentry would
treat him in sunny France and Italy.
The few inquiries he made did not
reassure him that Gallo and Italian
hosts were any less frugal or exact
ing than those of the British king
dom, so that he not unnaturally
judged from past experience that so
much of his time as was not employ
ed in sleeping would be chiefly occu-
pied in opening his pocket-book and
making payments and donations
more or less Just to almost everyone
he was brought in contact with.
Whether he was right or wrong in
thus assuming that everything went,
so long as it was paid for, he could
not possibly decide for some time.
The theory that it was all right had
carried him through Paris and other
of the principal cities, after visiting
which he had come to Marseilles.
Here his eyes were delighted with
reading the legends on a rather poor
looking hotel that English was spok-
en- there. Entering he found that
statement only partly verified, as a
knowledge of that speech was con-
fined to the proprietor. Still, as he
had made out hitherto, this was
nothing of shock, although he soon
found the petty extortious practiced
upon him were. The slightest ser.
vice was treated in the light of an
item for the bill. Opening window
seemed to be made memorandum OF
by the officiating waiter, and hand.
ing him light for a cigar had the
character of special extra. This
went on for about half a day, when
he had an alteration with an official
whom he enormously took for the
man that blackened his boots. A
neither understood the other toe
we'll, the traveller, possibly mistakine
the garcon's natural vivacity for Of
fensiveness, knocked him over {
couple of trunks and down stairs. Ii
moment up rushed the proprietor
"Mon dieu, monsieur" he said
"you have killed the waiter"
"Killed him, did II" was the sur
prised answer. ooh, we'll, charge
him in the bill."-Philadelphia Times

Impertinence of Course.

You all remember that old story of the apple pie, the waiter enumerating the several kinds and the guest saying I'll take mince, cran perry, custard and huckleberry," and the waiter ex- claiming: Whats the matter with the apple pie?" We'll. the other night at dinner party fellow entertained the table in this way: Coming over last summer I told an Englishman that story. You know where the waiter asks the guest at hotel if he will have apple or mince pie and when he replies: 'Mince pie the waiter says: Whats the matter with the apple pieP' and do you know the Englishman couldn't See the point of it at all" We all looked at each other in silence and at last the host said: What's the point of it?" ''The point" he replied; "I supposed anyone could see that; the point of it is the imper tinence of the waiter, oi course "-Quips

BY the rules governing the appoint ment of delegates to the approaching session of the Irrigation Congress to be held at Los Angeles, each chamber of commerce and each probate judge has the appointing of two delegates. The subject to be discussed is of great importance to Cochise county, which contains more tillable land than any of the eleven counties of this territory. The chamber of com- merce of Tombstone should appoint two delegates, as should the probate judge. There are probably many citi- zens of this county who will be in Los Angeles next month and could com bine business with pleasure and repre- sent us at the convention.

 ''She called it 'outre' or something like that She declared that l must be given some romantic name that would sound pretty for calling. So I have been Lucia for half a year. and I'm heartily glad that left her and am go- ing to Mrs Northwest's."
 The other girl gave a mortified look at mention of this name. But. my dear" she exclaimed, T worked for Mrs Northwest and know all about her. She has daughter named Mary, and it will never do for you to be Mary, too.
 ''She called me 'Maizie,' and she'll probably call you 'Callis' or 'Susanne' or some other ridiculous name"

CUSTOM HOUSE REMOVAL.

THE proposition has been resurrect- ed to move the custom house from Tombstone to Bisbee, and the PRos- RECTOR is again called upon to give it little brushing up.
 Tombstone is the natural point in Cochise county for the location of a custom house:
 First: It is the county seat and trading point to which all importers or smugglers come to do their trad ing.
 Second: It is easy of access, b,ipg one days less journey f.om Nogales than Bisbee.
 Third The disadvantage of Bisbee as a point of entry has been recognized by the Mexican authorities, who will abandon the Morita and move back to the San Pedro or Palominas, which had until year or so ago been the point of entry for this section of Ari- zena.
 Fourth: San Pedro is on 6 direct line over . natural road from Tomb stone to the mining regions of So- nora If there were no other reason for the retention of the custom house at Tombstone, this argument alone should be sufficient.
 
 Fifth: Nearly every man who owns cattle or mines in northern Sonora has interests in Tombstone and makes his headquarters here while stopping in the county. It would be a hsrd- ship for them to be compelled to go out of their way to perfect their entry as would be the case were Bisbee to secure the custom house.
 Sixth: The court house, county jail and court commissioner are at Tombstone. Justice demands that the trade between the two countries should be watched where it is carried on. This can only be done where the machinery of the law is omnipresent and at the point where this trade Is carried on.
 Tombstone is feeling the effect oi the anti-silver legislation in the east. She feels as though she had but little left to brace her mp against the on- slaught of the enemies of her princi- pal industry. Until the clouds roll by we wish to equalize things in the county by retaining the few morsels we possess. After the storm has passed we will make Bisbee a presen, of our custom house on silver plat ter.

|, ELECTRIC LIGHT BATHS.

Curative Properties Said to He Possessed by such Treatment.
 There are few people who believe that electric lights possess great cura- tive powers. It is known that the transmission of the electric current through the atmosphere converts the | oxygen into ozone. A thunderstorm clears the air. On such established facts as these the electricians base
 their claims that the electric light has
 curative property. When the rays
 are directed from a properly-devised
 apparatus to any part of the body the the effect is to increase the circulation
 and to bring on copious precipitation | where the light strikes If it is desired | to treat some particular part of the body. screens and refiectors are adjust. ed so that the electric light is thrown to that place alone.
 If general treatment as well as local | application is wanted the patient sits with his back to the apparatus. The | specific rays are thrown upon the dis | eased spot and the general electric light is thrown upon the whole body.
 Different colored lights are employed | for different diseases For some eases
 the telectric light is thrown through
 blue glass. For special effect on the
 blood red electric light is used, and ioi
 results on the nervous system the coloi | is yellow Sun baths are as old as the ' hills Electric light baths are some
 thing entirely new. The astonishing
 claim is made by the electricians that
 this treatment is more rapid in its ac ton than drugs.
 | There is almost nothing to which the | electric treatment is not applied. Il
 the trouble is in the head blue ol

 tremities the red light is applied tc
