ARIZNNA INVENTION
New llluminant Which is a
 World Beater

An invention IS being exhibited in kirgman this week that will reysIu- tionize the burning of sceytelene gas. The erdioary sceytelene gas burner is made with two tubes. so constructed, as to unite the gas with atmosphere air and produce the flame. A. F. Chsrlesworth conceived the idea of uniting the prOpe. quantity of air with the gas in the reservoir, before going to the burners. He enlisted the financial backing of Banker II. H. Watkins in the invention, and coustructei . machine for that pur- pose. How well he succeeded is practically demonstrated in Mr. Wat. kin's drug store, which is lighted with the gss. The old style burners were replaced with common gas burners which omit the gas through a straight. narrow slii. The burners formerly used where of half-!oot capacity and the new burners are the same, but the new ones only consume one-seventk the gas the old ones oii, sui three burners take the place If ten. Al, fret the ten were replaced by six of the new ones, but 1t was fund that the light was far too brilliant and so they were cut down to three. This invention vii place aceytelene already the cheapest c: Illuminating gsses, far in the lead.-kingman Cor. Albuquerque Citizen.

A MUNSTROSITY
"Dog-Boy" Committed to the
 Asylum From Tombstone

Today a monstrosity in the shape of a "dog- boy" vas brought before Probate Judge Bradley to be exsm;n- ed as to its sanity with a view of con- mitting the prodigy to the asylum or some institution where he will receive the proper care and attention. The "doa boy" is nearly I6 years of age and named Rudolph Prcciardo. Moth ing is known Of the history oi the un- fortunate, further than he was born at Nogales Mexico, and both his parents dead. A Mexican woman, friend of the family. has been taking charge of the toy and has been living at Bis bee. Being poor and having a large family to support, tine woman turned her charge over to the county.
 The "dog-bOy" is an imbe cile, can. not speak hut one or two intelligent words, is blind and Indeed an object of pity. Though possessing perfect human features be has the oh arac. tcris,ics of dog, barking and baying like a can inc, ard an inclination or tendency to go about on all fours. Whom standing, his body bends ever as i! more disposed to navigate on hands and feet. When lsts alone he erouches in heap and rests in a haunched position the palms of his hands show much wear by constant use as means Of moving about; his ankle is peculiarly formed enabling him, at will, 10 move lis feet in ap unnatural manner. Being fed some milk the dog-boy drank it in gulps. At intervals he baiks uninteruptedly for few moments and then mosne piteously while occssionly fellows grunts and gutteral noisas. While net repulsive looking, the c.esture's helpless and pitiful condition cannot fail 10 leave itsimpre.sion. He will be committed 10 the asylum at Phce- nix.

IN animal which, when in a state OF

but in flight. In its wild state the
horses natural habitat is on the open
plains. not in mountainous regions, but
on the stcppes Of Asia. and when at
tackled by wolves. its only safety lies
in IFS superior speed. If the young
foal were not as swift as its parents
it would fall IN easy prey To the pur-
sucr, and Sc. within 4 few generations.
the wild horse might be utterly de-
stroyed 10y its enemies. The curious
thing is that the foal is quite as swift
as it's parents. When one looks ut II.

seems TO be all legs. and II, is sur

body is borne along on those long legs

fact lies the safety Of the wild horse
from destruction. and tho thousands
