 They were met at the depot and entertained by Senor Cirilo Ramirez, Senor Manuel Mascarenas, Alberto MascareIas and Senorita Louisa Mas careIias, until the departure of the train for the north, when they de- parted for San Francisco. The object of thelr visit is to place the young ladies in school in that city. pr. and Mrs. Figueroa only went as far as Ben son, returning south yesterday.
 Mr. Overholzer's car load of keg beer arrived last Saturday and since then the town is rcyeling in the lux ury.

He will return to Nogales in about three months.
 Last Saturday there passed Nogales the body of Sonora Leocadia Carrillo de Loaiza, the deceased mother of Filomeno Loaiza, the wealthy Hermo- sillo merchant. She was visiting the City of Mexico for her health when she died, and her body was embalmbed and sent to Hermosillo for burial.

was probably fastened by the action of

The Husband and Domestic Cares.
I would like to see one little point
impressed upon women, and that is
the fatal mistake m make in
%burdening husbands with domestic
worries of any description whatever.
In these days Of great competition in
all lines Of labor every person who Sue
cceds does so only through the strict
est concentration of mind and constant
application. The man who works hard
all day is neither more nor less weary
than the wife who has performed the
thousand and n duties conferred III
the home. We will say that he Is only
just as weary as she is, but his nerve
force Is in a semi-eXhausted state and
needs recuperation. If he permits his
nervous energy to exhaust itself fur
Their after regular hours he may staEd
it for u time, even for q term Of years,
but he will eventually give out, to
that extent at least. that he will nevcr
succeed in commanding recognition as
being more than one Of the worlds
mediocre workers. If he leaves II
work to take up another, he new
rests, and a highly strung nervous con-
dition prevents him from feeling the
need of rest. The man who locks his
business cares in the Office, and who
on arriving home proceeds to domestic
carrentering or to help cook the din
ncr or wash the babies or brush up
crumbs or dust the furniture or to
s%traighten tides, Is in a nervou con-
dition which requires treatment. in
this present day Of competition in
all lines Of work. a man to succeed
requires great concentration Of mind,
ana the wife should never be a dis.
tracing influence. There can be no
better teacher or model Of the correct
| system of wifehood than is the moth
er Of daughters in her own home. Wo
: men are growing to be nor conscious
of methods that are not mechanical.
and the ethics Of home-making and
correct living is the greatest science

tercst herself in.-Haryot Holt Cahoon.

NEW METHOD OF MAKING GAS.

NEW METHOD OF MAKING GAS.
An Important discovery Accident.
ally Made. by n Scientific Expert
= menter.
' A new system Of producing gas has
been discovered. 1t promises to play
a prominent part in the industrial and
mechanical world. Further invcstiga-
tion and experiment may yet demon.
state that gas produced by this new
method is Il cheaper illuminant and
fuel than anything in either of these
lines that has yet been placed OF the
market. Electricity enters largely into
its production. but it may yet prove a
formidable competitor Of electricity
for lighting purposes. In an interest
ing article in the Engineering and
Mining Journal DR.. Francis Wyatt de-
scribes the process by which this new
gas may be produced so caleaply rs to
bid defiance to competition from the
ordinary coal Or water gas. In his
opinion the new gas may be produced
anywhere for 30 cents per 1000 cubic
feet, one of its chief recommendations
being that by it the requirements of
country hotels and dwelling houses
and of railway cars may be fully sup
piled.
AS In the ms of so many other
great discoveries, this one was made
by accident. 1t was while experiments
in the manufacture of aluminium were
being made that the method of pro
ducing the ingredients which enter
into the composition of gas was found.
A simple mixture Of lime and carbon,
with a current of from 1000 to 5000
amperes Of electricity was being used.
This formed q fused black homogeneous
mass. which. when cooled. became
solid and brittle. When analysed this
substance turned out to he very pure
carbide of calcium. Further expert.
ments showed that when it vas placed
In water 1t caused it's decomposition,
and the gas evolved turned out to he
pure acetylene.
By actual experiment it has been
found that a ton of calcium carbide
may be produced from 1000 pounds Of
fine coal dust, and 1000 pounds Of
burnt lime at a cost Of Sis per ton.
The gas produced by the mixture of
this calcium carbide and water is a
colorless and highly explosive one. 1t
burns with q very smoky but much
more luminous fame than defiant gas,
and undergoes complete combustion
when mixed with oxygen in requisite
proportions. When diluted by mixture
in proper proportions either with wa
ter gas or with ordinary atmospheric
air, it's flame is smokeless and Of the
utmost brilliancy and Wilderness. One
ton Of calcium carbide will produce, by
merely mining it with water, about
10000 cubic feet Of acelytcne, which,
when mixed with the required amount
of air, produces a gas equal in illun1in'
ating value to 100000 cubic feet of city
gas of twenty-five to twenty-five can.
die power per five-foot standard burn.
er. When used as fuel acelytene gas
gives out 61.OOO heat units.

Healthy hogs are of the essen

Ing. The food of the hogs, as we'll az
that of many other animals, deter.
mines, to a very considerable extent,

possible to lodge in the system the
germs Of disease, either in feeding OF
watering. Hence, it is very essential
in maintaining good health to see that
the food and water supplied are of
q character we'll calculated to maintain
good health.
With the majority of farmers less
care is given to the maintenance Of
good health with the hogs than with
any other class of stock. But this
plan can hardly be considered econom
zeal. For some time, al least, hogs
have been even more profitable than
almost any other animal, at least so
long as they are kept in reasonably
good health: and it will pay to use
all reasonable care to supply such con.
ditions as will most fully maintain
good health.
Clean quarters and dry bedding are
important in keeping healthy, but with
these there must be pure water and

Last week 162 young Bretons were
drawn by CONSUMPTION to help fill the

fore they were sent from the reserve

ccount of despair. Military authori-
ties in France say that 1t is no uncom-
mon occurrence for young men in rural
districts conscripted to the French
army to suicide rather than enter and
complete the necessary term of serv-
ice with the colOrS. The French, as
a people, are not noted for migration

flag is not displayed as a badge of
sovereignty, and therefore young men,
unlike those of other nations where the
ranks are filled by CONSUMPTION. resort
to self-murder other than attempt to

age arrives. 1t is a well known fact
that every year hundreds OF young

come IN the nick of time to escape cOn-

and military spirit Of the young sons
of France to note this strong tendency
to suicide rather than serve with ,A.e
