a visitor to the Midwinter fair in San
Francisco says that the little old Taqui
woman at the Arizona Indian village,
who was said to be. 10 years old, Is dead
Yet they say there lit was the new coun-
try that killed her, and the clothing" To
is not good for Q Taqui to wear shoes,
and the women are sick when they feel
the tight dress across their shoulders.
She died Just at sunset, which, the In
dams say, Is q good sign.
Before she died they washed her face
and put on her shroud and carried her
out OK her wigwam and laid her ON the
bare ground, put stones under her head
and uncovered her neck and arms, be-
cause they said 1t was good she should
feel the fresh air for the last time on her
skin. When she had died, they put q
cloth over her face. raised her arms high
over her chest and clasped her hands to-
gether and placed q burning candle at
her head and one at her feet and began
10 wall for her. All night the village
women walled around the body, and the
next day it was buried IN Calvary cazns-
tery.

Willard A. Lucas. the son OF a great
Conn. wears an artificial hand made of
aluminium, which is really one of the auto
matical wonders of the century. Young
Lucas lost his hand in his fathers mills,
and Lucas, ST., who grieved exceedingly
over the results of the accident. wrote or
went in person to every known manufac-
turer Of artificial limbs in this country and
Europe, vainly seeking for a false land
for his son. Artificial hands could have
been procured from any of them, but what
was wanted was not to be found, viz, a
hand that could perform all the functions
of a real f~esh-and-blood member
Finally the older Lucas, who is known as
a mechanical genius, took 1t upon himself
to make his son a hand-not a mere ''dum-
manifold purposes to which such members
are put. The result is a surprise to every
maker of artificial limbs in the world. The
automaton is of aluminium. and much re-
