NEW MOTIVE POWER

Balanced by Public Opinion and
Found Not Wanting.
The new motive power recently in
vented by J.,H. Burrows of Globe, has
been tested and the project, when
weighed in the balance of public opin-
ion, was found not wanting in practical
bility. On Sunday the test was made
and while but twenty-four feet of suita-
BILE chain could be procured and instead
OF a we'll frame work was erected to
give sufficient height and a big tub of
water beneath furnished the supply,
the little pump started as soon as the
trigger was touched, and the few gentle
men present for the first time saw the
workings OF self-propeliing lifting
power or water elevator. With persist
ent regularity the chain revolved and
the little elevating buckets deposited
the water in pipe at the top of the
scaffold. For an hour and half the
machine ran like clock and every one
was convinced that the plan was a
practicable one, even on large scale.
The weight exactly balanced the ele-
waiting column of water and the little
turbine wheel furnished the power that
kept the machinery going. The thing
then looked so simple to the bystanders
that ca ch one was kicking himself for
not having thought of the scheme long
ago.
Mr.. Burrows was thoroughly satisfied
with the test as was his financial back
er, Charlie Banker, and since then the
machine has been taken down and new
patterns are being prepared for one of a
size fit to run an irrigating stream. A
lathe has been ordered and soon man
ufaeturing Enlistment, so it is said
will be started to supply the demand
for the new invention. Five years have
been spent by the inventor on the plans
OF this clock-like self-acting machine
that needs only to be wound casion-
ally and is as easily operated as is the
town clock. He is now elated over his
success and has no fears as to the feast.
bility of the thing when used on q
larger scale.

MADAGASCAR SEDAN CHAIRS.


Passenger.
Four men at time carry the passen-
ger, always keeping step. The men on
the left side support the pole on the
right shouldess, holding it with their
right hands; those on the right side
have their heads between the poles,
the righo-hano pole resting on their
right shoulders, while with their left
hands they catch hold of their compan-
ions right wrists, and so steady each
other.
Every half-minute, without slacken-
ing their pace, they throw the filanzana
onto the shoulders of four others, who,
in anticipation, have been running on
ahead so that there should be no pause.
They were a bright and CHEEKY set of
people, never ceas1ng TO laugh and
chatter the whole day, and were like a
lot of big children out for game of
ball-the unfortunate passenger being
the ball. The sailors description of
his camel-ride over the Bayuda desert
that the beast played cup-and-bal
with him the whole way, and only
missed him twice-would have been
equally suitable to this mode of travel
ing.
The bearers are of higher class and
generally younger than the baggage
porters, and are specially trained to
keep up fast rate of travelling day by
day. The latter have, as a rule, enor-
nous bumps on their shoulders, which
l have read are hereditary, but my own
opinion is that their growth on each
individual is the result of the constant
friction of the long bamboos on which
they swing their loads.

Heavy Force to Work In the Blsbee
Copper Mines.

Heavy Force to Work in the Blsbee
Copper Mines.
The following from the Citizen indi-
Gates renewed activity in copper min
ing and places Arizona's greatest mine
on better working basis. One thou
sand men will soon be working at Bis
bee, replacing the force of 800 now
there. The plant, after the present
methods OF reduction, will be increased
to the extent requiring 700 additional
men, including the increased force OF
miners required.
The change will be completed about
the first of the year. A lay-off OF fifteen
days of all departments will be taken
while the change is made. The ore is
worked as fast as taken out, and will
not be mined and dumped awaiting the
new plant, 80 the miners will do moth
ing during the change.
The increase of 700 men should fur
nish employment for some of the silver
miners of the territory whom the re-
peal bill has forced out OF their usual
means o. earning a livelihood.

DISTRICT COURT,
C. M. Russell Acquitted of Muir
derouS Assault.
The Finale of Case Whose Ending
Was the Most Interesting
Incident of 1t.

G. M. Russell, late editor of the ella
Bend Arizonian, was acquitted yester-
day in the district court of an assault
with attempt to commit murder.
Among the spectators were the defend
ants faithful wife and little boy upon
whose faces was depicted lively in
terest in the proceedings.
The defense which many believed to
be almost hopeless was conducted by
Hon. Frank Cox and Judge W. H.
Barnes, a friend OF Russell's of twenty
five years. standing, and never was a
client better served.
The Jury was out so long that the sus-
pense upon the defendants wife be-
came almost unbearable. When at last
it was announced that a verdict had
been found her excitement became
painful and it was shared by Russell
himself. 1t grew in intensity while the
verdict was being perused by the judge
and handed to the clerk. The seconds
were like minutes while that official
was making an entry OF it and when he
at last stood up to read and reached the
words, mot guilty." the expression OF
Joy upon the countenances of the pris-
oner and his wife was worth making a
journey to see.
Russell bowed his thanks to the jIry
and grasped the hands of his attorneys.
Several cases of slight importance in
which the witnesses for the territory
were out of reach were thrown out. The
case of J. W. Lambert caarged with
ENLIGHTENMENT was continued to De-
Gem Der IA on account of the illness of
the defendants wife who is material =,
and IN fact, his only witness. This, by
the way, is the first continuance yet
granted at this term of court. Jose
Juan Reina, United States prisoner,
plead guilty to selling liquor to Indians
and was sentenced to eighteen months
at San Quentin.
