KISSING OF THE ARC.

At a recent meeting of the Institu- tion of Electric Engineers, a paper was read by Mrs. Ayrton describing experi- ments on that curious phenomenon, '"The Kissing of the Electric Are" It is not subsequently, asserted that only short arcs hiss, but Mrs. Ayrton has shown that, under suitable conditions, ares of any length may be made to do so. A remarkable drop in the poten- tial between the lamp terminals all ways accompanies the hissing, and this potential afterwards remains constant. " hi,e the current may be varied through wide limits As to the cause of the hissins5, Mrs. Ayrton attributes it to the spreading of the arc crater over the sides of the positive carbon
 So long as the crater is confined to the end of the carbon missing does not occur, but as the current is increased this crater spreads, finally overlapping the carbon sides. The potential then drops, and hissing takes place. A thoroughly inclo5ed arc cannot, how ever, be made to hiss, as the phenome- non seems to be dependent on direct contact between the air and the crater This was shown by a series of eXperi- mentS in which a hollow positive car bon was employed Air was blown this, and thus came in direct contact with the crater, and with this arcs Of any length could be made to hiss.

AN OSTRICH TRUST
Which Threatens fO Absorb inc
 SaIf RiVer Valley Farm.

A well authenticated report from New York is that there is soon to be
 an ostrich ccrj5ine incorporated by
 J. A Stein of New York. and that the Phoenix farm is to Ibe included in the
 singular pool. V. L. Clark, one Of tho
 stockholders in the local ostrich com pary said yesterday that he knew
 1othing ol the proposed combine. NJ.
 Stein is a broker in ostrich feathers
 and in his trip through here a few
 days ago, he made a bid for the feath-
 CTS of the Arizona ostriches, but he did
 not say anything about a combine MT. Clark says that although it has not been placed on the market he has no doubt that the ostrich farm can be
 bought if the right p1ice is offered. MT. Stein has declared his intention Of including the Arizona farm in the pool
 But no good reason appears why the ostrich farms of tire United States, numbering only six, should be incor- porated There is no competition among the farms and in fact. some ct them are maintained solely for eX- hibition. The ostrich feathers tn- ported from Africa amount in value to between $1, 1,OOO, coo. and $2,O00,O00 an nually, while the industry in this country does not produce more than $40,000 annually for it's product. So the competition is altogether with the imported products.
 MT. Clark has just received letter from Edwin Cawstor, the owner of the Pasadenla ostrich farm, who says that every year ostrich farms are becoming less attractive to visitors. The novel, ty IS wearing off and there must be change in the object of the industry MT Cawston thinks that when the attraction ceases the owners will turn their attention to raising ostriches for the profit in feathers. He says that in that event the best place in the country to carry on the business extensively is in the Salt River valley The climate IS better adapted and the birds thrive on alfalfa. Mir. Cawston may engage in the business here be- fore long.
 It is strange that in as much as ostriches are imported from the and regions of both Egypt, and southern Africa, that they should thrive on a veriant farm.
 The Arizona Ostrich company to meet it's growing business is now seek ing a new farm. It is also c0ntsm- plating putting in a pant to manpU- late the feathers. It is not settled whether it would be more profitable to ship the feathers in the raw state, or to convert them into. a marketable ar ticle in the latter event 3 plant vih be established and all except black feathers will be fiuffed and dyed.

 The exercises at the grammar school consisted mostly Of rhetorical. pre- sentaticns, but there was one feature of the programme which was impress sive. Miss Hattie Culver, teacher of the sixth grade of the Central school,
 who has devoted six years to teach ing, was presented with a framed pie ture as a high mark of the respect and esteem of her pupils.
 The school did not convene in the afternoon until o'clock, when the pu- pilS Te-assembled to receive their report cards. Later the graduating class gave an informal reception to the faculty.

PHOENIX HERALD SOLD
pr. C. H Keefer Purchased inc Prop
 erfY Yesterday.

The Phoenix Herald has at las changed hands after a continued own ership by the retiring proprietor, MT N. A. Morford, of almost twenty years It has been in the field considerabl! longer than any other Phoenix news paper of the present day. The new owner is pr. G. H. Keefer. The trans fer was effected shortly after nooT yesterday.
 Dr. Keefer is one Of the mos successful business men in the terri tory and though he has had no expert ence in the newspaper field, it has hap pened that among the most successful journalistic managers are many whose business training was secured in wide ly different walks.
 Dr. Keefer was seen yesterday re- garding the future policy of the Her. aid. He said that he had not given the matter a great deal of considera tion, but that he had embarked in the new enterprise for business reason and would conduct the paper as purely business proposition. Its stand ard would be maintained and the char acter of the news service would be i'm proved as rapidly as possible.
 The Saie or the Herald has beer. rumored almost daily for the las three weeks and each rumor was base, upon actually pending negotiations which always fell short of consumma, tion. Now that the sale has been ef fected the members of various syndi- cates of ambitious gentlemen with DC litical longings, will be relieved of in- Somnia. Their new found sleep ma! be disturbed by disap1ointing dreams but it will be much better than nc sleep at all, and the bitterest disap pointment finally wears away.
 The last combination for the pur- chase of the Herald was headed by Co. J. F. Wilson, delegate to congress. He arrived on the ground too late to or ganize his forces, though his friends believed as late as Thursday night that he had succeeded in arming hi1n- self with weapon for the busting ot trusts.''

l MUST HAVE A GAS STOVE

substituted for air the same phenome- non was witnessed, but nitrogen proved ineffective. Hydrogen, on the other hand, had a similar action to air, but the accompanying drop of po- tential was but six and one-half volts. in place of ten. While this was the case with an open arc, hydrogen proved as innocuous as nitrogen when the arc was inclosed.
 The peculiar action of this gas is still being investigated. From Mrs. Ayrton's researches it would seem that the fiuted cartoons commonly employed in lighthouses should be peculiarly liable to hiss, as the air then gets easy access to the crater. This, as matter of act, is the case, but the noise caused seems to be the main objection to their use, as they burn steadily enough Moreover, the very features which give the air access to the glowing crater are equally effective in letting the light pass out, while with the common type of carbon much light is stopped by the crater walls.-Philadelph Record.
